Chapter 976: Rescue

"Second scene of Wandering Tales of Shana-oh"

Suddenly, the voice of a capable general girl reached Leonidas' ears.

"Dan-no-Ura (Eight-Boat Leap)!!"

In an instant, several silhouettes flashed past the group of Demon Beasts outside Noble Phantasm Leonidas. After a few flashes, a large amount of blood from the Demon Beast was splashed on the spot, and a gushing purple blood splashed onto the layer of light.

"This General Ushiwakamaru!?" Leonidas recognized the user of this move and at a glance the voice was Ushiwakamaru.

But not only Ushiwakamaru, but also the warrior monks who followed Ushiwakamaru came here together.

"General Leonidas, the poor monk and Ushiwakamaru-dono began their free movement at the behest of King Gilgamesh. It seems poor monk and Ushiwakamaru didn't come late." The man who carried multiple weapons and held a naginata in both hands Musashibo Benkei walked up from behind Leonidas, and stood up straight.

"Oh! General Benkei, you are also here." Leonidas was deeply moved. As a comrade who fought with him, the cautious Leonidas, naturally realized the fear of death in Benkei's heart. He didn't expect Benkei to come to the forefront.

If it was Benkei who didn't undergo the "beheading operation", then no one would have thought that Benkei was a coward, but after surviving the "beheading operation", Benkei could become a changed person.

The fear in his heart, the fear of Benkei on the battlefield and Demon Beasts can be seen by everyone.

And those who saw Benkei's timidity included Leonidas of course.

Yet the cowardly Benkei, along with Ushiwakamaru, came to the forefront, how could this not surprise Leonidas?

"The poor monk is only a living person who bears the name Benkei, but since the poor monk bears the name Musashibo Benkei, this poor monk will fulfill Musashibo Benkei's obligations and always follow Ushiwakamaru-dono." Benkei or Hitachibou Kaison who goes by the name Musashibo Benkei, spoke words that made Leonidas look at him.

Leonidas originally wanted to raise the fighting spirit of the lost soldiers. He never thought about whether he would survive this war. Yes, Leonidas' mentality is exactly the same as the Corps is ready to die, and he is ready to die.

But this time was different, this time there were reinforcements.

"My Noble Phantasm is about to disappear, you guys should take this opportunity to retreat!"

After Leonidas finished, his layer of Noble Phantasm light actually started to dim, and seemed to have really reached its limit.

Even though there were reinforcements, it was still useless in the face of large numbers of Demon Beasts.

When the light layer is broken, they will fall into the Demon Beast group with Leonidas, waiting for their end only to die, and Leonidas is not willing to let Ushiwakamaru and Benkei die with him, so Leonidas wants Ushiwakamaru and Benkei to quickly retreat while he can last a while.

"No, General Leonidas, we don't need to retreat." Benkei said something that confused Leonidas.

Just when Leonidas was about to ask a question, something unexpected happened to Leonidas again.

Countless vines rose from the ground outside the northern wall, and attacked the Demon Beast's belly from the ground up, piercing the Demon Beast head-on. The growing vines were torn apart.

"Woooooooooo!!" A distant and strange roar resounded throughout the northern wall.

"This this?!" Leonidas was startled by the sudden tendrils, but then he reacted.

He had seen these vines, the vines that had restrained the Demon Beasts for a period of time for the northern wall that had not been completed half a year ago.

Even though it had been half a year, Leonidas was still fresh in his memory, and he was definitely not mistaken. The person who made this definitely...

"Divine Beast Humbaba!?"
