Regressor of the Fallen Family Chapter 149

The faction alliance forces, having drawn back due to the overwhelming number of troops of McLaine and the injuries of Luther Kaihl, did not immediately advance again. Although it was anticipated that their movements would be slower due to the split in their command, it still did not mean that one could be at ease.

The McLaine troops of Aegis operated a double shift for the watch, keeping an eye on all sides, and the key leaders including the knights almost stayed up all night with open eyes.

Has there been any contact from His Grace the Sword Sage?

The neutral forces troops havent fully gathered yet. Plus, considering the time it takes to march, it would take at least a month more. So, thats why they too would have such a leisurely attitude.

Thats a grim prospect.

We can hold on. We must make something out of nothing if we dont have it. And weve already succeeded once.

However, even with Logans confident expression, it was impossible to fully erase the anxiety from Patrick.

But they say the Blaze Sword and the Ice Mage are a cut above the Storm Sword and the Half-Giant. Can we stop them too?

Those individuals cant stray far from the side of the first and second princesthe reasons for war. Like yesterday, well likely have the magic of Juan Douglas flying at us occasionally. And that level is

Right, my daughter-in-law managed to block them well. That was a good sword to give her.

Daugh Hmm. Hmm. Yes.

Sigh, my apologies for always speaking of weaknesses. Lets muster up a bit more strength.

The next morning after Patrick regained his composure once more, McLaine witnessed a slightly different scene.

Lengthen your necks, McLaines cowards, who cower!

A booming voice echoed throughout the entire battlefield. As the gray-haired giant started to move, red wraiths flickered around his body. The moment the giant charged, the wraiths turned into a giant flame, creating a mirage as if a red meteor was rushing towards them.

At first, the distance was too great for many to recognize him, but soon the presence of one of the most famous individuals in the kingdom, a symbol, made them recall the name immediately.

The Blaze Sword!

Its Duke Valdermaine!

Unlike the previous day, the superhuman who emerged from the second princes camp wasnt the Half-Giant Luther Kaihl but The Blaze Sword, Yordan Valdermaine, a well-known Aura User and one of the leaders of the opposing enemy forces.

Kill him!

If we kill that man!

Before Logan could issue an order, several soldiers shot crossbows. The projectile happened before Duke Yordan had even entered their range. Subsequently, the soldiers around hurriedly fired their crossbows as well.

Ultimately, it looked as if an oddly accelerating fireball(?) had jumped right into the shower of bolts. As Logan was about to erupt in rage, he hesitated.

Sure enough.

Pop-pop-pop!

The bolts were ineffectually deflected away, and the fireball surged up towards the city wall as if unaffected.

Where do you think youre going!

Before Logan could even make a request, a vast magical power could be felt behind him. The ascending fireball then suddenly plummeted down to the ground.

Gravity Control.

It was Claytons magic, which had knocked down Luther Kaihl and gained him confidence, now working against the higher-ranking superhuman, Yordan.

Throw!

Knights nearby quickly scooped up and hurled red-hot stones toward Yordan.

Instantly, over thirty Liberatios hit the fiery target accurately.

Boom-boom-boom-boom!

With a massive explosion, a huge cloud of dust rose into the air.

We got him!

Keep throwing! Dont stop!

Just as the soldiers were about to prematurely cheer, Logans shouts spurred the knights on.

Annoying pests!

From within the dust cloud, a growl resembling a giant beast or demon resonated along with the surging red aura.

Boom-boom-boom-boom!

The repetitive barrage of Liberatios pushed the uprising Yordan Valdermaine back to the ground. However, the impact of McLaines new weapons on the superhuman was merely that brief.

The red aura, visible through the dust, did not lessen but instead grew stronger.

First, second, and third squads focus only on the duke! Keep throwing!

Following Logans bellowing commands, the knights throwing continued.

Patrol Teams 1 to 5! All focus on that target only! Think its me because of the hair color! Assume Im the one and kill me!!

The well-known General Instructor, also infamous as the Demon Instructor from Kaisolron, shouted, and again a rain of bolts were cast.

Worthless mortals!

Pop-pop-pop!

Roaarrr!

Incredibly robust. Well, thats a relief, I guess.

Logan gritted his teeth at the sight of the red aura that remained unyielded under concentrated fire. The idea that it could withstand direct attacks after being hit by a 6th circle magic spell was absurd.

However, at least they had prevented the superhuman from climbing the walls. If they could stop other superhumans in that manner, things would undoubtedly be easier

His Highness! To the south!

Crack.

Lets go!

The superhuman from the first princes army, Wicken Callian, was an entity that could not be countered by projectile weapons. It was a matter of compatibility with the power difference among superhumans as commonly known.

Only I can block him.

Fortunately, since the last war, it had been proven that he could endure ignoring the auras destructive properties due to achievements gained.

I can do it. Perhaps even more than that

Logan, feeling incremental progress in himself through fierce battles with the superhumans, charged towards the superhuman swirling with a silver wind and soaring over the city wall with reinvigorated morale.

The faction alliance forces did not retreat as easily as before. The unexpected military power of McLaine had been assessed during the last battle, and unlike yesterday, the superhumans were staunchly holding the front lines.

However, the overwhelming firepower of the new weapons inflicted significant casualties on the faction soldiers, visibly demoralizing them in real-time.

The situation on the eastern city wall was slightly different. The firepower focused on Duke Yordan had created vulnerabilities.

Utilizing that gap, knights climbed the slippery, firm walls using their spears and swords as footholds, and one after another, successfully ascended.

However, what awaited them was

Swamp!

Solid!

Clay Binding!

The ground turned into a swamp, the large, ochre-shining shields held by giant soldiers, and the onslaught of mud that bound them completely.

Due to the heavy presence of knights in the army of the second prince, golem tower mages had been concentrated on the eastern wall.

Damn it!
