Chapter 693
Let Us Rejoice in Today’s Victory. (1)
The Crest forces’ formation had already collapsed completely. Thousands of casualties lay sprawled on the ground, and only despair filled the eyes of the survivors.
“T-This can’t be...”
The moment of realization had come too late. Only upon seeing the approaching Allied forces did they finally recall, this wasn’t just a lone mage they were up against.
With their formation in disarray, they had no means to stop the oncoming attackers. The commanders shouted once again.
Е̄_n̂ù m а́_.i̊d
“F-Form up!”
“Shield-bearers! Shield-bearers, get to the front!”

“Form ranks now, damn it!”
The Crest forces hastily stopped chasing Ghislain and scrambled to form up again.
But it was already too late. There was no way a broken formation could be reorganized in an instant.
Julien dashed into the midst of the disoriented Crest soldiers.
En̈u m̃ а̊._і̂ d̆
Slash!
“Aaaargh!”
Julien cut through the Crest forces without hesitation, swinging his sword. Each time his blade moved, enemies dropped like bundles of straw.
Kyle and Tyran followed close behind. Both of them, matching Julien in skill, cut down the enemy ranks with relentless fury.

With those three rampaging through them, the already-chaotic Crest forces didn’t know what to do. They were too busy either fleeing or blindly chasing after the trio.
Soon, the rest of the Allied forces descended upon the Crest army.
Ѐn ú m̊ȧ. і d
Boom!
The Allied forces and mercenaries were brimming with morale. They charged forward, mercilessly driving the Crest army back.
Even the Swifel reinforcements, arriving in support, struck at the Crest forces’ flank.
Ghislain alone had already taken down more than half of the Crest army. Realistically, the remaining forces on both sides were roughly equal in number.
But with their formation shattered and morale at rock bottom, the Crest forces couldn’t hold out against the attack. They couldn’t even mount a proper defense and were helplessly overwhelmed.
“You bastards! We’re the strongest mercenary corps!”

“How do you like our Deputy Commander’s magic!”
“Count Crest dies today!”
The emboldened mercenaries shouted wildly as they swung their weapons. The demoralized Crest soldiers fell back with laughable ease.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Osval’s giant war hammer was particularly effective in the chaos of this melee. Brimming with courage, he joyfully smashed down on the Crest forces and roared,
“I, Osval the man, will follow my brothers for life and achieve greatness together! Wahahaha!”
Ė n̈ u m ǎ . íd̂
Though Osval was normally timid, once in battle, his massive frame and weapon made him nearly impossible for regular soldiers to handle.
Thanks to everyone’s efforts, the Crest forces quickly collapsed. Scattered knights in the middle tried to resist, but officers from the Ironclad Lion Corps closed in from all sides.

Though the knights held out for a while, once the Allied knights joined the fray, they too began to fall one by one.
Julien, Kyle, and Tyran, in particular, were far too fast and powerful for anyone to withstand.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
“I am Tyran!”
Wеb nо̂ v̊ el Еn ü m ã
Tyran shouted loudly as he swung his sword. There wasn’t a single soldier capable of withstanding his strength.
“I am Kyle!”
Kyle, not to be outdone by Tyran, swung his sword with fierce determination. His sharp blade was like a wolf’s fang, aiming straight for the vital points.
“I am Dark of the Shadows!”

Dark simply shouted from Kyle’s shoulder.
At the very front of the battlefield, Julien looked around. Faced with the overwhelming assault, the Crest forces couldn’t even put up proper resistance.
Ẅ е̊b̈ ń о̀.v̆ еl Е̂ n ù ṁ ǎ
‘Not many left now.’
More and more enemies were fleeing from the Allies’ attacks. Those who had once fought bravely were no longer to be seen.
That meant now was the time to bring it all to an end.
“Surrender! Those who surrender will be spared!”
At Julien’s cry, the nearby soldiers dropped to the ground. They had realized the tide of battle had completely turned.
Soon, similar shouts echoed from all around.

“Surrender, and we’ll spare your lives!”
“Drop your weapons and lie down!”
“If you keep resisting, we’ll kill every last one of you! Down on the ground now!”
The brutal mercenaries’ shouts had an even greater effect. Even the fleeing soldiers threw down their weapons and surrendered.
Some knights even discarded their weapons and knelt. No matter how proud they were, there were few who truly held unwavering loyalty to such a ruthless lord.
Seeing the enemies surrendering rapidly, Julien clenched his fist.
W е̄ b̂ n_ӧv ė l̆ Ěň um̊ ä
Of course, he knew this wasn’t the end. The enemy still had one more move left to play.
Sure enough, Count Crest, who had been staring blankly at the battlefield, twisted his face into a snarl and shouted,
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
“Mages! Now! Unleash every last spell!”
Count Crest’s eyes burned crimson with fury.
His army, once the mightiest in the region, was surrendering to these lowly rats. Even the knights he trusted had fallen to their knees.
Unforgivable. He wouldn’t be satisfied until every last one of them was dead.
Е̄n ú m̆.а̂. ǐ ḋ
At his command, a mage spoke up, flustered.
“B-But our allies are mixed in… If we cast spells—”
“So, you’re saying we should just sit here and die? Their mage is exhausted and out of the fight! Just unleash every spell we have! Kill them all! I said kill every last one of them!”
The mages, aside from casting magic shields, had only used mana to protect themselves. Yet they hadn’t even managed to block the enemy’s magic.

In other words, they’d contributed nothing to this battle. But at least they still had plenty of mana left.
The mages, with hardened expressions, began drawing on their power. It was the Count’s order so they had no choice but to wipe out everyone, allies included.
W̌eb̊ n ӧv̇e l Ë nu m а̊
Woooooooom...
As more than ten mages gathered their mana, the very air began to tremble. If they unleashed a wide-area spell, the enemy would be wiped out in an instant.
But before they could even begin casting, something flew toward them.
“Huh?”
Clang!
One of the mages hastily conjured a shield. A single small Fireball had struck it.

“M-Magic? Who was that?”
While they looked around in confusion, dozens of Fireballs came flying in from the same direction.
Ghislain had reappeared in the enemy’s rear after circling around the battlefield.
“T-The enemy mage is here! Stop him!”
The mages panicked, halting their spellcasting and focusing on raising shields.
Bang! Bang! Bang bang bang!
Е n̈ um̊а́
The barrage of Fireballs slammed into their shields without pause. Unable to maintain their casting, the mages were fully occupied defending themselves.
It wasn’t especially powerful magic, but if these frail mages were directly hit, they wouldn’t survive unscathed.

As they panicked and focused solely on defense, the head mage shouted,
“You idiots! I’ll cast a shield, so keep casting the spell!”
Only then did the mages snap back to their senses. In the chaos, they had prioritized protecting themselves.
But that wasn’t necessary. The head mage could handle Ghislain, who had appeared in the rear. The rest just needed to prepare the wide-area spell—
Еn u m̊ а̌
Ghislain snapped his fingers and smiled.
“Vanish.”
Fwoosh.
The shield conjured by the head mage vanished pathetically.

It wasn’t that Ghislain couldn’t use Dispel Magic he just didn’t, because doing it often gave him a headache and was annoying. Dispelling one spell? That was no problem.
It was borderline cheating, but regardless, he had reached the level of a 6th-circle mage.
En̆ ū m̌а.і̊d
“Huh? Wha-what’s going on?!”
The head mage was a 5th-circle mage. He couldn’t comprehend how his spell had been instantly dispelled.
Even if the opposing mage was a genius capable of multi-casting, if they were both 5th-circle, their mana would normally be evenly matched.
Once again, dozens of Fireballs rained down on the mages. As they scrambled to raise shields in panic, a voice right in front of them made them freeze.
“I’m here.”
Ghislain had already closed in on them, spinning his staff and smiling. Dozens of fireballs still orbited around him.

The head mage shouted urgently.
“Suppress his magic! No, cast the wide-area spell, wait, just stop that bastard first!”
Ghislain had thrown them into such disarray that they didn’t know what to do. Though this time the threat was real magic, they still hesitated, remembering how their suppression spells had failed just moments ago. On the other hand, focusing on the wide-area spell meant exposing themselves to the relentless fireballs - if someone raised a shield, Ghislain would just dispel it.
The mages, accustomed only to easy battles, couldn’t make quick decisions. In contrast, Ghislain not only possessed superior skill but was also a master of psychological warfare.
A man good at everything except romance. That was Ghislain.
Boom!
W е̃ b̄ ń_о̊ ṽ е l Ĕ n̄u ṁ а
“Gah!”
Ghislain, closing the distance swiftly, swung his staff, sending a mage who had just raised a shield flying through the air.

The nearby mages flinched and scrambled to put distance between themselves and Ghislain. At that point, they no longer cared what happened to their comrades.
Their priority was survival, and so the mages hurriedly retreated.
At least the head mage, in a panic, extended his hand and released a burst of mana.
Fwoooosh!
W̆ е̂ b̃ n̂ о́ v́е̄ ľ Enu m а
Though hastily cast, it was still a powerful spell, befitting a 5th-circle mage.
Exhausted, Ghislain slightly furrowed his brow but then simply sidestepped. There was no need to confront it head-on.
“Huh?”
The mage, not expecting Ghislain to dodge, screamed. Ghislain rushed forward with a grin.

“Nodehill and the House of Larks are short on mages, so I’ll spare you.”
Thwack!
Ѐñ ǔ m̄а́.і̆ d́
Before the head mage could raise a shield, Ghislain’s staff struck him on the head. His skull cracked slightly, and he passed out on the spot.
“Hope that didn’t make him any dumber.”
Ghislain tilted his head momentarily, then quickly moved on to the next mage.
Some tried to flee in panic, but there was no way these frail mages could shake him off.
Thwack! Thwack! Thwack!
“Ugh!”

As all the mages collapsed from head strikes, Count Crest screamed in despair.
“Kill that bastard first! Hurry! Kill him now!”
Only then did the guards near Count Crest begin to move.
Seeing this, Ghislain smirked and clicked his tongue.
“You should’ve moved sooner. Too late now.”
The elite knights serving a High Lord were referred to as the Royal Guard.
W еb ǹоv еl Е n̊ umӑ
Count Crest’s Royal Guard was entirely composed of knights of intermediate rank or higher.
There were even two high-ranking knights, and the captain of the guard was just at the threshold of top-tier.

If they had acted from the start, Ghislain wouldn’t have been able to run so wild.
But Count Crest hadn’t deployed them. He needed them nearby in case of unforeseen circumstances and besides, he believed his forces alone were overwhelming enough to win.
Now, trying to capture Ghislain was already far too late.
“I’m out.”
Е̇n u̇ m а.іd
Fatigued, Ghislain made a cheeky retreat as the knights closed in.
“After him, now!”
Crest’s Knight Commander, Simon, shouted and led the charge after Ghislain. But he barely took a few steps before he had to stop.
“Damn it…”

Enemies had already surrounded them. The opposing mage had incapacitated only the Crest mages, then vanished.
Step, step, step.

Julien slowly walked forward, extended his sword, and spoke.
"Surrender. If you surrender, I'll spare the lives of everyone except Count Crest."
To raise Nodehill and Larks, they needed many skilled knights. Having already spoken with Ghislain, Julien intended to take all of them in.
Count Crest, eyes bloodshot with rage, shouted,
"Shut up! Kill that bastard right now! Hurry! I said kill them all!"
The magician who had shown such great might had already fled. Mere mercenary scum could be handled by his Royal Guard or so he believed.

Count Crest's army was already shattered. All he had left to rely on were his escort knights.
Simon stared at Julien without a word, then asked,
"Are you the commander of the Julien Mercenary Corps?"
"I am."
"And that mage?"
"He's the deputy commander of our mercenary corps."
Ẅ е b̂ n̆ ò v_еl Еn̈ ùm̀ а
Somehow the deputy commander seemed stronger than the commander. But this was a chance.
Simon subtly glanced around. Julien had stepped far ahead of the others.

‘If I can just take him down…’
A reversal was impossible at this point. No matter how strong they were, their numbers were far too few.
But if he could take that commander hostage, they might still escape.
He was a top-class knight. If he put in his full strength, he could take down a mere mercenary in a single strike.
Eńu_m̌а̂
Kwaaang!
Without a word, Simon suddenly exploded with mana and lunged forward. His plan was to slash Julien’s leg and take him hostage in one swift move.
But Julien reacted with astonishing speed and blocked Simon’s sword.
Klang!

"Ugh?"
Simon was startled. He was momentarily flustered by the fact that a mere mercenary had blocked his sword.
Ё n̄u̇ m̂а . і̌d
But as a top-class knight, he quickly adjusted his stance and went for Julien’s neck.
Klang!
Julien staggered as he blocked the attack again. His opponent's skill was so great that a perfect defense was nearly impossible.
"You bastard!"
Simon didn’t let up and kept swinging his sword. He needed to take his opponent down quickly, but it was proving harder than he thought.
Klang! Klang! Klang!

Julien hastily retreated while fending off the attacks. Countering or dodging was no easy feat. He could barely block each blow, as Simon’s strikes were fast and ferocious.
The soldiers positioned nearby were frozen in place at how suddenly it all happened. The speed was far beyond what they could follow.
But there were others here just as strong as Julien. And they weren’t knights, they were mercenaries.
Thwack!
“Grrhk!”
Simon, focused solely on Julien, was suddenly slashed on the shoulder by Kyle’s sword from the side.
Еn̆ ū mа_
He twisted his body to avoid a fatal blow, but now Tyran’s sword was targeting his leg from the opposite side.
"How dare you gang up on me during a sacred duel!"

Klang!
Simon furiously blocked the attack. But then, again, Kyle’s sword was swinging in from the side.
Klang!
Simon blocked it once more. His reaction speed was worthy of a top-class knight, but that was his limit.

Thunk!
“Gah…”
Before he realized it, Julien’s sword had pierced straight through his neck.
