Chapter 191 - Conquest of the city of Angamuco

The legionaries in command of Ares had prepared themselves in their positions, thanks to the investigations Ares knew that the enemy army was divided into two groups, one that would fight head-on and another that would do it in the rear.

It’s a pretty smart strategy if they face soldiers without cavalry, but the legion in command of Ares has cavalry and has precedents such as Battle of Cannae and hundreds of other battles.

The cavalry was divided into two to attack the army of the ancestors of the Purépecha from behind, the king of the city of Anguamuco was responsible for directing what he believed was the best strategy with which to destroy the invading army.

If he succeeds, he will be considered the greatest king of his people, if he fails, he expects death, Ares walked towards the middle of the battlefield and shouted "Who dares to challenge me, if you win me in battle I will grant a wish yours.

If they lose they will only lose their life and freedom after death as they will have to serve in my army of faithful warriors. "

The soldiers of the king of Anguamuco looked at the god they were facing and nobody wanted to fight him, but against all odds, a woman came out armed only with an obsidian dagger and dressed in a white Hayate.

The woman moved towards Ares "My name is Metzi, I want to accept your challenge, I just want revenge.

Years ago my husband was killed by the Purépecha King, with the excuse that he was a traitor but the truth was that he had seen how he abused his daughters and tried to stop him.

In the struggle the king slashed my husband with his obsidian knife and ordered that his body be burned, to know the truth I had to work in the king’s palace.

I used my body with countless people, all to find out that the only reason my husband died was to defend girls of only 2 years, girls that the king’s shit killed the following year and blamed another soldier for the crime.

That’s why I want to challenge him if I die I will do it defending my husband’s memory and if I win I just want justice. "

Metzi prepared his obsidian dagger and ran towards Ares without fear of death, Ares smiled at the woman in front of him, without much force he stopped his attack with one of his hands and with the other he held Metzi’s chin and began to smell it.

Ares smiled "You smell like death, from what I see you killed someone before you came, you’re not afraid of death and just looking for justice."

After this, Ares gave Metzi a small blow behind the head so with that she lost consciousness and Ares could carry it with one of his hands.

Completed the work he looks at the enemy army as if it were garbage and shouted "I see that this woman has more eggs and value than all of you, I thought we will have a fight on equal terms but respect is earned.

You are only insignificant garbage that does not deserve an honorable death on the battlefield, the lady made her request to this god and by the power I have, I am willing to fulfill it.

I hope you are ready to die. "

Ares appeared in his hand a fairly bright shield and pointed it towards the sun, this shield was a replica made by Archimedes after he die, he meets Ares in the underworld so Ares request a replica of his Ustorio mirror.

The sun’s rays were reflected on his shield over the enemy army and as if they were a laser they cut the bodies of the enemy soldiers in half, in just ten seconds the majority of the enemy army was split in half with no chance to shoot or defend.

After this, he kept his shield and took out his spear, left Metzi on the ground so that he would not suffer any accidental injury and ran at a surprising speed over the rest of the enemy army.

The enemy soldiers tried to escape but Ares beheaded or killed them only using his spear, the legionaries looked at the strength of the god Ares and could only thank him for being his commander and not his enemy.

In just a few minutes the enemy army was completely dead, the one who was the king of Anguamuco and his children were half-dead but that did not prevent Ares from cutting off their heads and raising them as a prize before their soldiers.

The legionaries shouted and praised the strength of the great god Ares, Ares walked towards Metzi and the charge while ordering his army to load towards the city of Anguamuco that was only a kilometer away.

Ares ordered that no one will bury or touch the bodies of the dead since they were not warriors they were shit that they didn’t dare to fight him, not to mention that the only person who decided to fight was a woman who had lost everything for them.

The soldiers left some wooden signs on the battlefield calling the area "Campum Florum" ¹ being a mockery of the dead who decided not to fight like warriors and die without honor in battle.

That same night the city of Anguamuco fell into the hands of the forces of Ares, Pandora also arrived with the head of the army leader who planned to attack the army of Ares in the rear.

Pandora after entering the city went to Ares’s room where he could see a young woman sleeping in Ares’ bed while he enjoyed sitting outside watching the beautiful lake in front of the city at night.

Ares turned to see Pandora and invited her to sit on her legs, Pandora accepted and sat on Ares’s legs "You know I thought you would say something to see another woman in my bed"

Pandora pouted "I don’t like the idea of ??having to share the bed with another woman, but I’m also not blind so I can’t see that the girl is just sleeping.

You know the reason why you do things, as long as you take responsibility for the fruits of our love, I will take it for granted. "

Ares looked at her doubtfully "You are pregnant"

Pandora denied and said in his ear "Not yet, but we can always try. I want my little son to have a brother or sister.

Maybe when he grows up he can live with him or her. "

Ares and Pandora kissed to continue giving love in some of the rooms of the palace ...
