Chapter 86:
Chapter 86
Togril was not only ruthless, he was also incredibly tough.
Alone in the midst of enemy forces, he cut everyone who came within a few meters of him in two.
Argh!
Oh, its a demon! Fiend!
Arrrrgh!
The Allied soldiers were helpless before the sheer force of such a Togril, and were butchered in quick succession.
Kiiiiiiiiiiiiii!
Kiiiiiiiii!
Togril summoned a vast number of hawk spirits, nearly a thousand in number, which completely blanketed the battlefield.
Like Amukhan, Togril was able to summon an animal spirit, a hawk, that symbolized the Kerrates tribe.
Hawk spirits dominated the battlefield skies, diving in like a swarm of bees to torment the Union forces.
They swooped down with terrifying speed, tearing flesh with their talons and pecking out eyes with their beaks.
With the help of these hawk spirits and Togril, the Kerrates were gradually gaining the upper hand in this final battle.
I dont think this will work.
Camille, who had been watching the battle from afar, had enough and rose from his seat.
In your current state?
Kairos looked at Camille and then snorted in disbelief.
How do you expect to take on that fool when you have neither eaten or slept in days?
Then we should leave him be? If we dont stop him, theres no hope for this battle?
Of course there is.
Kairos agreed with Camille.
Indeed, Togrils mere presence was more than fifty percent of the fighting force of the Kerrates.
But I dont think you need to step up
What?
Look over there.
Kairos pointed over Camilles shoulder.
.!
Camille turned his head in surprise, then gasped.
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo!
In the distance, a group of troops were galloping at breakneck speed, with more infantry following closely behind.
And flying alongside those cavalry and infantry was the flag of the Kingdom of Lota.
Otto hadnt just sent the Magritte Kingdom soldiers, he had sent the Lota Kingdom soldiers as well, with a very slight delay.
Are you still planning to go?
No.
Camille replied, leaning back against the rock.
Hehehe. You are not that good.
Kairos said this because Camille was not the type to drop out of battle, no matter how tired he was.
He would have jumped up and down to save even one more soldier.
But right now, the exhaustion was so intense that even he didnt want to go out there.
* * *
The tide of battle has turned once again as the Lota Kingdom army enters the fray.
Lota Kingdom troops, exterminate all enemies!
Waaaaaaaaaaaah!
The combat power of the Lota Kingdom Army in a large-scale all-out war was unparalleled.
Thanks to the mana discipline method Otto brought from the Kuntachi family, the Lota Kingdom army has become an army where even the lowest ranking soldier knows how to wield mana.
And thanks to the constant training of their legendary instructor, Spooner, their soldiers have become a force to be reckoned with.
With the addition of the Lota Kingdom forces, its no wonder that the Kerrates, who were just starting to gain ground, were quickly outmatched.
What the?
In the midst of his joyous slaughter of the Union forces, Togril was taken aback by the arrival of a mysterious army.
At this rate, Togril himself would win the battle and claim supremacy of the Haver Prairie.
Then, out of nowhere, additional reinforcements from the Union forces arrived, and for Togril, it was as if someone had sprinkled ashes on an already cooked rice.
These unheard-of bastards!
Togril spat out his anger, assembling his Hawk Spirits over the heads of the Lota Kingdom troops.
The intention was to use the hawk spirits to harass and hinder the powerful Lota Kingdom army.
However, there was someone who read Togrils intentions in advance .
*Crackle, crackle, crackle!*
A roaring fire shot up into the sky.
Kkiiiiik!
Danger!
Otto backed away from Togrils vicious and terrifying momentum.
Whether it was his size or the size of the greatsword he wielded, Togrils strength completely overwhelmed Otto.
If he met it head-on, hed either be split in two along with his sword, or sent flying off into the distance with the force of the impact.
You little rat!
Togril, fueled by momentum, unleashed an onslaught of blows at Otto.
Hahaha! Are all continental people as cowardly as you, how long are you going to avoid it!
.
Where is the courage you had to dare to challenge me!
Then.
Tsk!
Otto suddenly spat out a spitball.
Then the <Vile Death Orb> pierced Togrils left eye.
Kaaah!
Togril screamed in agony.
Now!
Seizing the opportunity, Ottos sword shot toward the center of Togrils chest.
And then.
*BANG!*
Ack!
Otto screamed and fell into the distance.
Sensing danger, Togril instinctively unleashed his mana, and the explosive storm of mana sent Otto flying.
Ugh Krrrrrrgh!
Togril groaned, holding his left eye, which was dripping with blood, and snarled at Otto.
H-How dare you! To take out my eye I-I will definitely gouge out your two eyeballs and chew them up into small pieces then feed it to you.
Ugh.
Otto didnt respond to the comment, but pushed himself to his feet and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.
He had suffered some internal injuries from exposure to Togrils mana.
Good reaction. Figured you couldnt avoid it.
In truth, Otto was aiming for Togrils forehead, not his left eye.
But Togril turned his head just in time to avoid being pierced.
Maybe its better that I missed the mark.
Otto was certain that Togrils defense was better than he had ever expected.
If it were anyone else, it wouldnt have ended with just losing an eye.
It was clear that <Vile Death Orb> would have penetrated the eye, penetrated the brain, and escaped through the back of the head.
The defense is stronger than I expected. I must be careful.
Thats what Otto thought, as he faced Togril, who was charging at him like a raging bull.
Uhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
Togril roared in a bull-like roar, charging at Otto with even more speed and aggression.
Y-Your Majesty!
Your Majesty is in danger!
The viciousness and ferocity of Togrils attack was such that the knights of the Kingdom of Lota who watched were horrified and tried to help Otto.
But Otto was not to be outdone.
*Weing!*
Gray flashes of light began to emanate from Ottos eyes.
Eyes of Calypso, one of the five powers of the Invincible Emperor.
The second skill in his skill system, [Eye of Petrification], had been activated.
But Togril was by no means an easy opponent.
Grrrrr!
Though Togrils body was tinged with gray in places after being exposed to the [Eye of Petrification], he was not turned to stone.
Togrils defense wasnt the only thing that was ridiculously high, his magic resistance was also quite high.
So it seemed possible to resist the [Eye of Petrification].
You think you can survive me, Togril, with your little tricks!
Togril roared, charging toward Otto.
A formidable foe.
Truly the strongest of the Khabar Steppes, this was not an opponent to be taken down lightly.
