Conqueror

"That's reckless!" Greta voiced her opinion.

"Its fine." Afal does have an unwavering will and loyalty towards me. "This much troops isn't enough to kill me. I still have something to do."

"Then I entrust this matter to you." I then looked back at the troops. "Follow Afal's charge after I say so!"

"Gazer Form! Come, Deathdance!" Afal's right arm started vibrating the moment he held his sword. "Hmph!" Afal jumped in the air and landed right in the middle of their troops. The enemy was confused.

"What...?" The noble was just there contemplating on what just happened.

"If you're not going to act... Then I shall do so!" Afal thrusted his sword down the ground and the ground began to shake.

"My lord! Please give us orders!" The enemy soldiers were on standby.

"A- attack!" A hint of worry and dread filled the noble's decision. He could see the danger coming.

"Ground Splitter!" A small crack in the ground formed. Then it got larger and larger... Until a giant ravine spawned in the middle of their army.

"I knew it." Afal's vibration was too strong and uncontrollable but he manages to attack with it with complete precision. The only way to contain it is to overpower it with strength. Its basically an earthquake... Wait is it pandirquake here? Ah nevermind the details.

The soldiers near Afal fell down into the giant ravine. He killed even more than me. "Duel Initiate, lock on... Him." Afal then pointed on the noble in front of the soldiers.

A giant circular arena appeared and two flagpoles appeared. The Crimson Order flag appeared on Afal's side and the Three Kings' flag appeared on the noble's side.

A giant message board then appeared on top.

[Afal vs Brig]

[Afal LV 100: HP(9803/9803)]

[Brig LV. 9: HP(709/709)]

"That's just like mine..." An inescapable arena unless one loses. This is not the time for that! "Everyone, follow Afal's lead!" I used Telepathy to send this message to the Crimson Knights.

Everyone had a large battlecry and followed up.

"Fire!" Rize's commands were quick and simple but her soldiers knew what to do. A barrage of archers shot up to the sky and sought its targets making a quick kill.

"Zeta use crowd control spells." I ordered over Telepathy.

"Yes!" Zeta then looked over to his mages. "Cancel the casting of barriers. Focus on movement impairing spells!"

They all then casted different spells that stunned, paralyzed and slowed enemies and Zeta added mage buffs to his mages, "Knowledge Up!" it was twice as effective.

Precia now the leader of Afal's team, charged in. Precia jumped in the middle of the pack, "Taunt!" Every soldier near her redirected their direction at her.

I think it might've been better if she went there first. Her taunt ability is perfect for mages... And combined with...

"Valkyrie's Last Stand!" I knew it. Her skill was being immune perfect for sacrificing herself then letting the other soldiers kill the enemies far quicker and easier.

Greta transformed into beast form and joined in. Using her explosive legs, she began to pass by enemies while attacking them. Her moves was far too fast for them to track and her attack power was too strong to be blocked by their weapons.

I looked over to Afal and the noble, Brig. No one can get near the two.

"No... No! Help me!" The noble pleaded his life while he was panicking inside. He stood up and ran but he hit a wall. "Eh?" He tried punching it and using his sword to get out of the so called arena but he couldn't.

"We're trying my lord! But this invisible barrier is too tough! We don't have any mages!" One of the soldiers said. "Urk!" A giant vine enveloped his body. It must be Zeta's doing.

"Pay with your life for trampling on my new home." Afal took a stance, holding the hilt by the left hand, then posing the right hand slightly above the the tip the sword while his knees are slightly bent.

Afal lunged forward. This stance was an explosive thrust of sword. And he just proved that.

His lunge was faster than the speed I'm using when I'm using Lightning Body.

He aimed at the noble's stomach and it definitely hit. A large hole was left after Afal was done in his stomach.

[Afal won the duel.]

The flag of the Crimson Ordered enlarged and the Three Kings' flag was burnt and was in ashes.

Isn't that a declaration of war...? Eh who cares. There's no war crimes or rules. It's a world perfect for Battle Royale. Do what you want to do.

Fear overtook the enemy soldiers. Confusion too. I guess if I were in their shoes I would be enraged and confused. They were basically triple our troops and we managed to overpower them.

"Our general... Is dead... What's with this newly built kingdom and alliance?!" The enemy soldier's morale went straight down. They all began fleeing.

"Let them flee." I ordered everyone to stop.

The soldiers stopped in their pursuit and began murmuring and voicing their thoughts. "But-" Some soldiers disagreed.

"If they flee and we attack, its not war. It's just needless massacre. We're lucky we didn't lose a single soldier despite everyone of you here being so disorganized and having no formation whatsoever. You were all saved here because of the elite force, Crimson Knights."

No one talked back. They really are just barbarians that need discipline and order.

"I'll appoint Afal as your general and warlord. Afal, come here."

Afal looked at the fleeing soldiers then instantly went my way.

"I'll be teaching you formations. Make sure to group the soldiers on what weapon they're using."

"Yes."

"Also Afal, new home huh?"

Afal had a wry smile on his face. Despite him being composed all the time, he had a change just this once. "That was..."

"It's an honor, Afal." I tapped his shoulders. "Everyone, let's head back. There's much to do."
