Beast King'S Crippled Mate novel Chapter 304

Chapter 304: Chapter 304: Dark Witch’s Invasion (IV)

The beastmen soldiers were shocked when they heard that.

"I-is that true, Your Majesty? Our Queen will descend from heaven from the Sacred Selene Lake?" Blaze asked as he also had his hopes up.

"Yes, she will return after she raises our newborn cub. That is why, we cannot let the enemy touch the Sacred Selene Lake, or the Queen will not be able to return to us!" Gale announced, as to burn the fighting spirit inside his soldiers’ hearts. He knew that deep down, his soldiers actually preferred Swan more than him, and he actually liked it because that meant she was well-loved by the beastmen.

All the beastmen were fired up instantly. They had been hoping that their King and Queen would return soon to rule them again, and the idea of their beloved Queen Swan descending from heaven to grace them with her love and care was enough to make them ready to fight whatever threat was in front of them.

Gale could sense the army of beastmen and the undead were getting closer. He couldn’t let them reach the Sacred Selene Lake area, so he took a deep breath.

"FIGHT UNTIL YOUR LAST BREATH! WE CANNOT LET THEM REACH THE LAKE!" Gale shouted, and all the beastmen soldiers raised their weapons and prepared their stances, ready to fight their enemies. "FOR THE QUEEN!"

"FOR THE QUEEN! RAAARGGHHH!"

All the beastmen let out a warcry before rushing towards the army of undead and brainwashed beastmen with raised weapons. The big brute soldiers attacked the undead because they were physically stronger and didn’t need to worry about hurting anyone, as all of the humans were dead anyway.

Meanwhile, the smaller and slimmer soldiers were very agile and precise in their strike, so they tried to subdue the brainwashed beastmen. They prioritized the one with children strapped on their bodies, and once they were done striking them, they quickly separated the children and tied them all together in a safer place.

Meanwhile, Gale, as the Beast King, used his heightened senses to detect all the beastmen without children. He moved at almost inhumane speed and struck them all to incapacitate them. He moved from one area to another with such an amazing speed that he was almost undetectable by his own soldiers.

Gale was very focused right now. He didn’t want to hurt the children, because they reminded him of his son, whom he carried for the first time. As for the undead, who kept on coming in a massive wave, all he did was slash through them brutally. He made sure to chop them nice and clean, so the undead would take a long time to magically recover their limbs.

He could’ve just turned into his true giant wolf form, but it was too hard to control his strength in that size. He would’ve accidentally killed so many of the brainwashed beastmen alongside his soldiers in just one claw sweep.

Madam Harsetti smiled mysteriously. She knew that the little witch was obsessed with the Beast King, and for a good reason.

After all, both the moon and the shadow drew their power from the sun, so Aria must’ve thought that Gale was meant to be with her because she could feel the darkness in his heart as well.

Madam Harsetti had lived through many eras, but this was the first time the avatar of the shadow was so blatantly in love and obsessed with the avatar of the moon.

’I think you’re wrong, little witch. I think Asmara’s daughter will come down because her love for that wolf is deep. So deep that she was ready to sacrifice herself if that meant she could save her husband,’ Madam Harsetti replied. ’The question is, when will she go down? Remember what I told you before, right? She will descend from that exact location, Sacred Selene Lake.’

Aria bit her lower lip. She was panicking and restless inside, but tried her best not to show it.

"Then, what should I do, Madam? At this rate, the beastmen would be able to hold my army before they could even reach the lake. I’m also worried about Gale. He is fighting so fiercely, and he’s not even in his true wolf form! How am I supposed to win when things aren’t going my way?!"
