Warlock of War: My Ares System

Chapter 139 Battle Of The Lowest (9)

"CY! COME HERE!" I shouted as basically all my mana had been depleted, and I lost way too much blood.

Cy, who wasn't that far away from me, easily cleared a path with his flaming spear and stood right next to me, defending me from all the invaders around me.

"That was fucking badass," He smirked, but it wasn't the time for that.

"I can't feel my arms, and my mana has been completely depleted. You guys have got to clear out the rest of the soldiers… Did you find any lieutenants or any other commanders?"

"Urk… Fuck… Yeah, some people were under him, but they weren't that hard. But, Aisa's wound from yesterday opened back up, so both Findir and her are in a tag team right now,"

"Huh? It didn't completely heal?"

"I guess not… Maybe she was just trying not to make us worry,"

"That fucking… Urgh… Okay, just clear out the rest. It should be a cakewalk from now on," I said, and Cy gave me a glance that basically said,

"Watch me."

I'm watching… don't worry… I'm watching.

Cy charged into the army, which had been dwindled down to about three thousand soldiers already.

In the distance, I saw a massive tornado of black wind clear out a few hundred and then quickly disappear, only to be replaced by a large gust of wind that had thousands of small sickles mixed into the mix.

"FINDIR! YOU'RE GONNA FUCKING KILL ME!" I shouted as I had just barely managed to dodge his flurry of attacks.

"Ah, my bad," He chuckled before stepping in front of me and then taking a quick glance at Cy.

He was clearing out hundreds with each of his fiery swings… but I could tell he was running low on stamina and mana.

"Dude, we might not be able to clear this entire army. Bella is already running low on mana after helping you out with those two massive strikes, Aisa is just barely managing to keep up, and Cy over there looks like he's about to collapse… we might have to retreat for now,"

Findir sighed with a hint of defeat before taking a glance at me… and shivering upon seeing my expression.

"We don't have to completely wipe them out. Just strike enough fear in them, and we'll make them retreat… even without me, you guys should be enough. Go all out right now because I doubt we would be able to even retreat at his point,"

"Oh, that's actually not that bad of a plan,"

"Who do you think you're talking to?" I smirked before waving the dude off, and as he spread the message to everybody with his insane speed, the army began to dwindle quickly.

Bella was striking the area around her with massive bolts of lightning, Cy was creating large crescent-shaped flaming strikes that tore through hundreds, Findir was conjuring massive black wind tornadoes that seemingly scraped the clouds, and Aisa… well, she was kind of just next to me.

"I wish I could do that," She whined as she defended me from some of the other soldiers who saw us as the easiest target.

Aisa was very good with daggers, but her body wasn't properly trained to wield them for a long time… she was more like an assassin.

"It's fine. You're not really built for war,"

"HUH?! ARE YOU SAYING I'M WEAK!" She shouted before jumping onto a soldier and strangling her by the neck.

"N-No-" The soldier choked out before having her throat crushed by Aisa's fingers.

"That's what will happen to you if you ever call me weak again," She said with a demonic gaze, and I just slowly turned my head around in order to avoid that uncomfortable gaze.

"My bad…"

Soon, what I had anticipated slowly came true as soldiers looked onto the hellish sight we had created and ran for their life.

The more screams that echoed, the more soldiers began to run back to their trenches, and some even just past the trenches, all the way back into the city.

"Now that I think about it… who flattened this area?" I muttered to myself, and it seems Aisa caught onto it.

"Apparently, our commander and the original commander for the opposing army had an insanely long fight that lasted for a week. Our commander came out on top, but he was severely injured, and this entire battlefield is the result of said battle… well, kinda. There's the occasional fireball and magic spell,"

"Hmmm…"

Soon, most of the army had been cleared out until a surprising sight was revealed to us.

"I-If you don't drop your weapons, I'll kill her!" A nobody soldier shouted as he held an unconscious Bella in her arms, pressing his sword against her throat.

Blood was already drawing, and I could tell the soldier felt confident… so confident in the fact that he started cackling to himself like he was insane.

"HAHAHAHAHA! YOU BASTARDS! YOU REALLY THOUGHT YOU WON! I'M GONNA BE DEEMED A HERO! MY FAMILY CAN FINALLY EAT! THE AMOUNT OF RICHES I'LL HAVE IS GOING TO BE LEGENDARY! MY NAME WILL GO DOWN IN HISTORY-"

"*yawn*... That was a nice nap," A silky voice said, and we all saw Bella slowly open her eyes.

The soldier who had utterly lost his mind panicked a bit as he pressed the sword farther into her throat, which looked super painful… but Bella's face was emotionless.

"D-Don't do anything strange! I'll really kill you! W-What are all of you doing! I told you to drop your fucking weapons!"

"Bella, stop toying with the weak," I muttered before both Aisa and Cy helped me to stand up, my spear being carried by Findir.

"WHAT ARE YOU ALL DOING! I'LL FUCKING KILL HER- ARGHHHH!"

And the man went up in green flames, allowing us to finally come back together… and smile with contentment.

I never felt true comradery before… until now.

The adrenaline washing out of our bodies and the excitement flowing through our veins was nice, and we all couldn't stop smiling as we walked to the edge of the battlefield.

Well, actually, I had one more emotion coursing through my veins… rage. Anger at myself for being so weak that I needed a cheap skill that Bella had in order to help me out.

Even with just one swing, I was out for the count…

"I'm still so weak… fuck,"
