Chapter 89: Destroy Undead

"Took you long enough." said King Leon.

"My King, let us help you fend off this monster." said Sven as he led his group towards one of the Fire Drake.

Although King Leon is very strong, he still needs to become passive facing against two Undead Fire Drake. Especially they keep using suicide attacks to wound King Leon.

Fighting against high-grade monsters such as Fire Drake is different from fighting high-grade combatants. A high-grade monster's attack contains a high concentrated miasma. Getting fatal hit by it is the same as getting sentenced like being crippled or death.

This miasma attack is very lethal even for grade seven combatants such as King Leon himself. Furthermore, King Leon also feels that the miasma in their body is several times higher than when they are still alive.

Therefore, King Leon could only dodge their attack and waited for an opportunity to launch a decisive attack. However, the Fire Drake defense is very sturdy. All his causal attacks only wounded them a little bit before they recovered back.

He needed to charge up to create a big move, but the Fire Drakes didn't give him any time to charge up a strong attack.

However, the current situation has changed. With the help of Sven and the other royal guard, he could fight against one of the Fire Drake alone.

"I leave one of them to you. Careful of its attack, it contains a high concentration of miasma." said King Leon to others.

Then, King Leon begins to charge at one of the Fire Drake. As the King fought and wounded one of the Fire Drake, the other Fire Drake also came for help. But, it got intercepted by Sven's group.

Using this opportunity, King Leon flared up his mana and tried to slash the Fire Drake's limbs [Sword Art - Thousand Cut]. Engulfing his greatsword with blue fire, he cut the Fire Drake multiple times.

"ROOARR" roaring the Fire Drake as all its limb being cut down.

Without wasting any time, the king [Blink] to the others Fire Drake and cut all of its limbs using the same method.

"Keep attacking them to prevent them fully recovering. I need to help defend the Fortress." command King Leon before disappeared.

"As you command, My King." replied Sven and his group.

Arriving at the Fortress, he found that all the soldiers were in a dangerous situation of exhaustion especially the high-grade combatants.

If his royal guard is coming a little bit late, the fortress will crumble already. This shows the true horror of the undead monster tide. Unless they are burned to nothingness, they will keep regenerating and become unstoppable forces.

The only one that could destroy them completely is the high-grade combatants using high consumption mana skill or spell to obliterate them.

Without wasting any moment, King Leon flares up his mana and creates a big magic circle in front of him. Less than a second later he raised his hand and the magic circle became bigger in the sky [6th Circle - Starfall].

From the magic circle shone many bright lights that bombard the monsters. Once again countless undead monsters are reduced to nothingness. After a while, the remaining one begins to regenerate and moves again towards the Fortress.

'Tch.. What a persistent monster.' thought the king while looking at the regenerate monster.

Then, the king looked at the priest who kept chanting the spell. 'We need more time.' thought the king

"Soldiers!! Defensive Position!! Go into a defensive position!! Magicians cast all your combined area spells from the back! Hold on as long as you can! Show them the might of Heart Kingdom" command the King.

"WOOOO!!!" shout at all the soldiers.

"You hear that, boys!! Defensive position!!" shout General Borkins.

Then, the soldier took out the shield and created a defensive line position. While the magician huddles up in the backline casting a combined area spell.

"High-Grade combatant, follow me!! Target the one with the higher grade and the flying monster!! CHARGE!!" as the King begins to massacre the undead monster.

"Follow the king!! Charge!!" shout the Royal Guard leader riding his griffin.

As the soldiers turn into defensive positions, the battle turns into a battle of attrition. As long as the soldier could delay some time, they have a chance to survive this unstoppable undead.

While the King and other high-grade combatants were fighting the other high-grade monster, a huge magic circle appeared on the ground.

"Take and give my enemies eternal sleep… [6th Circle - Destroy Undead]" shout Priest Saya.

A powerful invisible wave blew up towards the surrounding area even entering the Dark Forest a few kilometers away.

After getting his by this invisible wave, all the undead immediately fall on the ground like a doll losing its string. Even the gigantic Fire Drake also stops regenerating and turns into a corpse.

Seeing that the undead turn back into the corpse, "WOOOWW" cheers all the soldiers.

"Fuhh… It seems the spell is effective. Worthy to be called the Temple of Dead." muttered King Leon.

Looking at the undead monster dead, the remaining surviving monster went back to the Dark Forest. As the monster waves retreat, the soldiers cheer as their battle finally ends.

While everyone is celebrating, some of the high-grade combatants immediately fell unconscious on the spot because of exhaustion and mana deficiency. These include the two dukes and Priest Saya who already fell unconscious after casting the spell.

Then, King Leon ordered the dwarf general to do some clean-up and tend the wounded. Looking at the wounded one, he could only sigh. He knows all the surviving wounded soldier's careers already end because of the miasma wound they receive.

Previously he thought that by building a stronger fortress, he could reduce the number of soldiers who will clash head-on with the monster and reduce the wounded one. But, he never thought that all the monster corpses would turn undead.

Still, if he does not make any preparation and rebuild the Black Fortress before, the injured and casualty will be increased more. It may even lead to cripple the military power of the Black Fortress.

As King Leon wants to rest inside the Fortress, a soldier from the communication squad comes running towards the King.

"My Liege…." as the soldier bowed to King Leon.

"At ease soldier, What's bringing you in a hurry?" asked King Leon.

"R-Royal.. The Royal Palace is under attack." said the soldier in a hurried manner.

Hearing this King Leon immediately flares up his mana, "Tell me the situation." Ordered the King.

Few hours before the monster attacks the Black Fortress, Angus is on the way towards the Royal Palace.

'Why the hell Jayna invited me once again into the Royal Palace? I want to avoid going outside these days.' thought Angus while inside the carriage.

He still remembers Ernest's warning to not stay in the Capital City. However, he also could not go home with a concrete reason.

'I just hope nothing will happen.' Thought Angus.

Not long after that, Angus arrived at the Royal Palace. This time he is welcomed by the old butler Darius himself.

"Welcome to Royal Palace, young master Victory. Please follow me, the fourth princess already waiting." said Darius politely.

"Certainly, please lead the way." replied the old man Darius.

"Do you know why Jay.. I mean the fourth princess called me?" asked Angus while following the old butler.

"I am not too sure myself, she seems to be in some kind of trouble lately." replied Darius with a smile.

Looking at the old butler's expression, 'Liars… He knows something… This is? troublesome.' thought Angus inwardly.

After walking for a while, "Alright, we already arrived." said Darius as they arrived in some clearing land that seemed like a training area.

In the middle of it, there is Jayna who keeps swinging a sword. She was wearing the training attire, but it could not hide her developed figure. Moreover, the way she is sweating and makes her look attractive.

Even Angus who could control his expression got stunned looking at her figure. A second later, he immediately reverted to his lazy expression as nothing happened. But, the old butler Darius already noticed Angus's change.

Besides Jayna, there is also another person that keeps observing Jayna's movement. Based on his expression and stature, he seems to be a sword practitioner. As Angus could feel a hidden sharp aura inside him that was ready to be released anytime.

"Pardon my intrusion Fourth Princess, Young Master Victory has already arrived." said the old butler Darius interrupting Jayna's practice.

During this moment, the man beside Jayna looked at Angus intently while Jayna took a blanket and wiped her sweat.

Any puberty teenager that looks at her act will immediately awestruck. Still, Angus only looks at her with the same lazy expression.

"You are finally here." said Jayna.

"Princess Jayna, is this the kid that you mentioned before?" said the man beside Jayna while keeping glaring at Angus.

"Yes, teacher. He is the one." replied Jayna shortly.

"I see… I hear from Jayna that she could never land a hit on you. As her teacher, it kinda interests me a little bit." said the man.

"Okay.." replied Angus.

"Ahh.. Where is my manner? My Name is Ban, a swordmaster." introduced the man shortly.

"It's an honor to meet a swordmaster. My name is Angus Victory." replied Angus.

Observing Angus for a while, "Hmm… It seems you have a nice body, why don't you have a spar with Jayna?"
