"Aren't we going a bit too fast? The vessel's engine is already overheating… There might be some problems if we continue with this speed." Ayla worried said as she noticed how fast they are going.
She can't even comfortably look out the window as she felt dizzy seeing the moving clouds.
"It's alright… The Vermillion Hawk can withstand this. Sir Turhan and Lady Faviona should get ready for battle. We'll probably join the battle as soon as we get there." Vincent replied.
"Don't worry, Vincent. We've already prepared ourselves. Just open the hatch and I can even jump down while you go to the Tower and take control of the situation." Turhan suggested as he felt that dropping from the sky to stop the barbarians' advance would be such a marvelous way of entering the battle.
Faviona only smiled at this as she thought that it wasn't a bad idea.
"No… I will be joining the battle with you. Ayla will pilot this airship and dock at the Tower. Dianne will accompany her." Vincent replied as he already planned this out while piloting.
"What about me?" Krusk asked as he pointed at himself.
"You will help any areas that were losing… I know that you have a good vision and you will be able to tell the situation clearer than mine. If possible, I want you to keep moving around and assist the Magic Knights at the front line."
"That's true… So you know how good my eyes are… Alright… I will as you say. Anyone who dares to attack my place will be eaten alive!" Krusk said filled with enthusiasm.
"Are you going to transform, Krusk?"
Dianne asked… It seems that even in this situation, her curiosity about the Mythical Beast's transformation art has not disappeared yet.
"Hmm… If the enemy isn't as strong as the Overseer or perhaps Celestial Being. Of course, I won't have to waste my energy on that."
"Overseer?" Dianne repeated as she curiously looked at the young mythical beast.
"Yes… Anyway, I can feel that we are getting near… Vincent, can you feel it? That one who was observing from afar…" Krusk suddenly said as everyone heightened their senses.
It was quite natural that this mythical beast has stronger senses than them but Turhan and Faviona couldn't help but feel disappointed about how they were unable to sense anything at all.
It took them over 20 seconds of concentration before they were able to sense something. In these few seconds, they have also gotten closer to their target so they can't really compare with Krusk.
Furthermore, they can only feel the presence of barbarians and some flying beasts who seem to be Dragon Riders… They can't sense the one that he mentioned.
'Someone is observing the siege from afar?' Turhan mused as he felt nothing aside from those who are trying to breach the gates of the city.
"I found him… Luckily, he doesn't seem to be the magic god's Avatar so we don't have to worry." Vincent suddenly said.
"Is he the leader of this attack? How can he lead both the Barbarians and the Black Magic Organization? Tsk…Can you tell how strong he is?" Faviona asked.
"He's probably the leader… I'm not sure how strong he is but since he has 3 Legendary Rank Magic Artifacts, he's definitely a troublesome opponent." Vincent revealed as everyone was shocked by this sudden news.
Possessing a single Legendary Weapon is already something incredible. Having three of them is something that not even Tower Masters would enjoy.
Most Tower Masters only have Pseudo-Legendary items and a small percentage of them have Legendary Equipment which isn't even a weapon.
"Three? Is that true?" Ayla repeated…
"Yes… No more questions. We're near. Ayla, I'll leave the Vermillion Hawk to you… Dianne, once you're in the Tower, look for Severin. Tell him I sent you to help."
"Got it…"
Vincent completed his arrangements as he went beside Turhan and Faviona… Just like the man suggested, they would be dropping off the sky to join the battle.

"Ceri… Let's attack together!" Millie shouted as she raised her sword and dashed towards the Barbarian King who went ahead to destroy the gate.
The other barbarian kings were delayed by the bombardment of Artillery Guns and Mana Cannon. However, one of them managed to reach the gate and smashed the barrier a couple of times. If they decided not to do something about it, the Barrier won't be able to last long so they have no other choice but to work together and kill this Barbarian King…
The two of them used their Shadow Blink Steps as they arrived on its side almost instantly.
This is already an Advanced-State technique so it wasn't surprising that the Barbarian was unable to notice them until they were about to stab him…
Primal Sword Style: Ethereal Thrust!
Two sharp blades aimed at its lungs came swiftly to end the life of the Barbarian King.
This sword technique is their enhanced version of their Primal Sword Style after learning several techniques from the Tower's Martial Library.
The barbarian king's bronze skin including its stone-like muscles was unable to stop their swords.
"Gaaarrrhhh!"
A mournful cry resounded throughout the battlefield as the Barbarian King was unable to dodge their surprise attack. Nevertheless, it didn't die yet… He raised his sword and concentrated all his energy on it to launch his final desperate attack against the two small ladies on his side…
However, the two Grand Knights were already aware of this technique and it is something that even their Sect's Sword Guardians would have a hard time stopping.
"You should just die quietly…" Millie softly muttered as she triggered the mana they left behind in his body… This invasive mana targeted the Barbarian King's heart and ended his life…
Thud!
The huge body of the barbarian dropped to the ground, lifeless.
It happened so quickly as the Magic Knights above the wall cheered in celebration…
Although there are still about 50 Barbarian Kings ahead, seeing a gleam of hope would certainly raise their morale.
Unfortunately, Millie and Ceri know that they can't do this continuously. Especially if the Barbarian Kings flocked together.
As expected, after a few minutes, terrible news came…
The artillery shells have run out and they have to stop the advance of the barbarians without its assistance.
