147 Prowess Of Rank 1 Cultivators Part 3 (1/2)

Desmond was quite intrigued by what he had seen except Zane's will who had nothing nice to say about Captain Tusk's selfless act of bravery.

”That man's fighting ability has clearly stagnated he's been leading troops for so long that he has had probably little time to properly train. Those foolish errors of his can tarnish our reputation if I was actually here I would have killed him for his incompetence. I hope you paid attention to everything that you saw because its a prime example of what not to do in a fight. Though he finished the creature off quickly he made over 20 mistakes that almost cost him his life. Never be fooled by a person's rank or their flashy techniques except for me everyone makes mistakes and it is your responsibility to see threw that facade to seize any opportunity given”.

Desmond didn't say anything to Zane's will he just patiently listened till the end. Captain Tusk cleaned his ax dripping with the insects blood with a single swing splatering the blood onto the floor. Then swiftly kicked the over 400 pound creature over the wall and watched it plummet down the wall to join the rest of its kind. Captain Tusk looked over towards the soldiers that he saved and said to them.

”Do not let this moment scar you if you don't face your fears now then you will only break down in the face of true fear. It may be had for you to do this now but none the less you must keep fighting. Now, pick up your arms and shoot down these infernal creatures. Don't worry about the loss of the cannon it will be replaced shortly”.

Roy and a few others of Desmond's friends suppressed their fears and replied energetically, ”sir, yes sir”. Captain Tusk didn't linger around Desmond's group there where still other creatures that invaded and were currently attacking the top of wall. Captain Tusk didn't personally battle further than that mostly because there was no need to. The top of the wall had a ton of skilled combatants all over the place that were fully capable of handling the trickle of creatures that flew in. In light of that Captain Tusk chose to stay in place and watch a couple of the soldiers that he favored fight.

...

Trent who was an incredibly handsome man had held back his anger after it happened the first couple of times but that beast was the last straw.

”What the hell Trevor do you really suck that so much that you can only fight something after I've beaten them within an inch of their life”.

Trent grimaced as he confronted Trevor. Trevor had a smug look on his face as he replied.

”What i'm just trying to help without me you'd probably be dead already”.

”like hell I would”.
