Chapter 228: Attack On The Keep



"Seth! You dare side with this ungrateful child!" Samuel bellowed, lunging forth.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

"It's time we stop being idle and dominate. Intis are not weaklings." Seth refuted as he clashed with Samuel. A shockwave blasted outward, and when the dust cleared, both knights could be seen facing each other.

Samuel swung his sword several times, but Seth deftly blocked the strikes.

Magic Scroll Skill: Repel!

Seth slammed his shield into the ground, and a golden beam blasted Samuel and other royal guards out of the main hall, destroying the wall in the process!

Samuel rose to his feet only to see the royal guards in the palace courtyard in an intense battle against themselves.

Seeing his men kill themselves with such brutality as if they faced their worst nightmare, Samuel's pupils shook.

Screams fell into his ears.

"You're a plague!"

Samuel roared at Reuel, who sat on the staircase that led down to the courtyard. The prince was relaxed. It was as if he couldn't see the slaughter before him.

Boom!

A hundred meters around Samuel imploded as he shot toward Reuel, only for Seth to block him.

While the battle went on in the palace, several kilometers away, a white-haired mage flew through the air.

His garment fluttered and his hair whipped about as he flew with great speed. Suddenly, flame balls flew toward him from three sides.

Creases formed on the mage's forehead.

"Begone!"

He roared, causing a blast that negated all the flame balls.

Wind balls appeared around him, and he looked at the hooded people standing in the plain field below.

There was no city for hundreds of kilometers.

The mage frowned. "Are you an accomplice in the king's demise?"

"We just want to make our kingdom better. You old coots prefer to sit in the comfort of your homes while other nations grow each day."

The female voice made the white-haired mage frown. "Who are you?"

The woman removed the hood, revealing her pretty face, which Asher would recognize even from afar.

"Lady Nephis. Why would you commit such a crime when you are fiancée to the crown prince?!"

"You're still oblivious to the truth. It's a pity."

Nephis, formerly Lia on Earth, opened her palm, and a staff manifested.

Ten flaming pillars burst out of the earth, causing the white-haired mage to counter with a wind tornado.

Nephis's hair fluttered as the tornado engulfed the flaming pillars. "The first spell he cast was a sacred-ranked one. Worthy of the kingdom's strongest mage."

She muttered.

A smirk formed on her face as several other hooded figures flew into the battleground. The moment they all removed their hoods, the white-haired mage trembled.

All of them were Nephis!

In unison, they swung their staff upward, launching large flaming serpents. These serpents were not just like other flaming serpent spells, but they were like actual living creatures with bright orange scales and glowing eyes!

About 30 flaming serpents destroyed the tornado and flew toward the white-haired mage.

The mage inhaled. As he exhaled, pure concentrated wind burst out in the form of a crescent beam.

It cut 12 serpents into different parts, but others quickly closed the gap.

Boom!

A ferocious explosion occurred midair, but when it cleared, Nephis found the white-haired mage miles away.

The mage began to chant, his voice echoing like that of an ancient giant.

Seeing this, Nephis also began to chant, and as she did so, more clones came into the mix and chanted alongside her.

Hands made out of flames burst out of the ground, heading for the white-haired mage. When it almost reached him, his eyes snapped open.

Concentrated wind beams shredded the hands, causing explosions midair. He uttered the last words of the spell, and a mighty wind tempest came out of nowhere.

Dust and sand rose into the air. The mighty tempest howled, like a forbidden entity hid within.

"An ancient ranked spell!"

Nephis felt both excited and terrified as she watched a behemoth, a being made entirely of wind and dust, 30 feet tall, emerge.

Its eyes were hollow, yet she knew it gazed at her.

The white-haired mage lowered his hand, and the behemoth took one step. Wind, sharp enough to shred steel, swooshed out like a tide.

All the clones were killed, leaving only one who was on her knees, cuts on her face and body.

"Did you think kingdoms had no secret power? No matter your tricks, you're just a little girl." Nephis lifted up his head and sighed. "My clones are still too far away."

"Numbers are not everything!"

Nephis was shocked when the behemoth dissolved and the mage appeared before her. "Stand.

I wanted to see the strength of the future queen."

Her eyes shook.

"Did you think Reuel would be able to take over the kingdom without the agreement of the

nation's top powers?"

The mage snorted.

"I agree with his logic. It's time Intis grows and absorbs the scattered pieces of the Eternal Immortal Empire."

Leaning closer, the mage chuckled. "And I also know the body I speak to is a clone."

...

The last week of the month went by, and the people of Ashkelon were slowly adjusting to their

new life.

The mysterious and cool theme of the underground and the bright, sunny theme of the

surface where they farmed.

On the walls of the keep built before the gold mine sat three Frontline knights chatting. Their weapons were leaning against the wall.

"I would have never thought that His Lordship could send our city underground and raise

mountains."

"I heard it's his gift. He has been blessed with a gift beyond ordinary. He must be a favored one to be able to do such things."

"The skies would soon lose their light. We should light the torches."

One said and rose to his feet.

...

Some hours later, when the skies were black without a source of light from the otherworldly

bodies, which were the moons and stars, the keep was lit up.

Shadows of the orange flames danced on the bodies of soldiers standing guard.

All of a sudden, a furry creature landed on top of the wall with a crossbow.

The soldiers couldn't react since they didn't even hear or see any sign of the beastman

coming.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Three crossbow bolts swooshed out.

Puchi!

The jackals were here!
