The supreme sovereign system

Chapter 19 - A Huge Change!

The Spartans could be described with one word, warriors. They were born as warriors and died as warriors, they train in extreme conditions since young, the spartan people, no matter the gender, learn arts and were rised by their mother until the age of the seven, after that, the males were trained to be perfect warriors. Shortage fights with fierce animals were just part of the daily lives of these warriors until the age if 18, when they could be part of the infantry.

The Spartan formation that Alfonso taught to the soldiers were the perfect combination of defense and offense, however, this kind of training required many years too perfect, this why Alfonso was worry, however, it seems that the soldiers could, at least, maintain the defensive stance of the formation , that was good enough.

"While they became the shield, Artemis while be the "sword" , if the enemy can't reach here, then we have a chance...… However, I felt that something is not right…. But what is it?" Thought Alfonso while looking at the beast trying to penetrate the fortress of shields. Artemis concentrate her attack on the falcons and the wolves.

The original ten falcons were reduced to two while the wolves were reduced to 20, she had kill 3 while the attack stance of the formation kill two.

"All is going smoothly...the only thing that is strange is... the Lykos hasn't move yet!" Thought Alfonso.

Like Alfonso, the Lykos haven't move from his original position, he was behind the wall of flames, it seems like it was waiting for the flames to extinguish, what make Alfonso uncertain it was the fact that the Lykos have been looking at Alfonso this entire time, like it was waiting for… something.

"I am being paranoid?" Thought Alfonso.

Then he looked at the battlefield and...…. Realized something!

"25 wolves... 10 falcons...5 bears….1 Lycos... That's it! The number doesn't match!" Said Alfonso.

In the original information of little blue, the number of the hordes were more or least 50, maybe even more.... But now….. Adding the ones who were dead, the number of beast are barely forty- one!

"Maybe the information of Little Blue was wrong, however! , I can't shake this feeling off, the information until now has been on point, no matter what, there is something wrong, and also, the Lykos…. Why Is he watching me all this time….. Maybe he is just measuring me? Like he is seeing what I am doi- "

Before Alfonso could end his train of thoughts, something, like a flash passed through his mind, a sudden thought appears!

"Seeing? No... maybe... maybe is not just seeing…. Is monitoring, like it is watching over me….."

Suddenly Alfonso thought of this and began to put the pieces together.

Watching over..... missing beast….. Attacking at night... Lykos.....

Alfonso could feel his body turning cold, he's eyes became bigger, and he felt a sense of extreme danger.

"AN AMBUSH!!" Shout Alfonso.

Before Alfonso could Said something else, he felt a pair of eyes looking at him from the dark, without thinking he grab Artemis and push her down from the little hill that they were on.

Artemis was so concentrate on her attack that she couldn't prevent Alfonso for pushing her, after she reacted of what had happened, she was already on the flat ground, before he could yell at Alfonso, a shout break in the battlefield and, for some time, everyone could feel their hearts stop.

"AHHHHHHHH!"

The shout of Alfonso could be heard while his body rolled down from the hill, behind him a trace of blood and 5 wolves were following!

Artemis took a few seconds before she could react, her calm face suddenly changed, an anger that she never felt before suddenly go through her body she clenched her teeth and run towards Alfonso.

"YOU FUCKERS!

MARK OF THE HUNTER!!"

Shout Artemis while throwing her bow, she made it just barely before the first wolf could stick its fangs on Alfonso' neck!

Artemis made a kick motion and manage to repel the wolf, however, the other wolves also arrived and began to attack Artemis from all sides.

The soldiers, still stupefied, became blue paled. They already consider Alfonso, their commander, their lord! , so they couldn't possible let him die!

However, just before they could rush to Alfonso's side, a voice halt their steps.

"DO… NOT….. BREAK….

THE… FORMATION!!"

It was Alfonso's voice, it wasn't like the imposing voice that before, it sounded more tired, and also, one could feel the pain that the owner of that voice was going through, however the soldiers couldn't help but clenching their teeth and forming once again the formation.

Alfonso, who barely could stand the pain, stood up, he was bleeding a lot, he took a look at the place that the wolf had bitten, and he couldn't help but make a bitter smile.

"It just.... Happen to be...… my right leg..... ha, ha….. now… I can barely stand the pain because... of the….. cane of chrono….. however.... I … can….. tell...… my leg.... Is useless…. now"

Alfonso knew, that his leg would have to be amputated.
