Chapter 252 - Hero summoning (3) (2/2)
”I will be joining you on the battlefield soon, so just hold on against the demon king and the beast empress, we will soon push them back, humanity will prevail!”
”””””OOOOHHHH!!!!”””””
to say the least the troops were ecstatic, but a single person was not so impressed with the show and soon a voice spread over the training field
”A f.u.c.k.i.n.g race war... classic”
Jake and the rest of the people present on the training field looked up and saw a person floating, nay flying in the sky.
He looked like a youth with a big backpack on his back along with two broadswords, one of them warped in cloth, the other made of bone. In his hands was a beautiful maiden with two fluffy ears on top of her head that looked on the show below with childlike curiosity, soon a soldier yelled
”It's a beastwoman!”
”Enemy attack!”
”Protect the king!”
the soldiers scrambled into action, meanwhile Mars just watched them move around with a slight from on his face, he had just finished the 7 day flight and was in a bad mood, if not for 78 wish of seeing the 'pretty castle' up close he wouldn't even be here, bu8t now he had seen something he could not ignore and slowly lowered his altitude until he touched down on the middle of the training field and pulled the bone broadsword off his back and handed it to 78
”Protect yourself”
”Okay Mars”
Then he took a step forward and spoke
”Who is your king? Under whose orders do you violate the natural order of Alfan!?”
As Mars spoke out the practice field got quiet for a moment before one of the soldiers yelled
”He has betrayed humanity, kill him!”
”I shall test his mettle!”
”I'll assist you Gunnar!”
A man with a magnificent muchase and a woman with blonde hair and yellow eyes walked forwards from the crowd, the man held a sword in his hands and the woman had sparks going between her hands, both glared at Mars with anger, Mars gave a sigh and began slowly unwarping the cloth on his boardsword, unfortunately his opponent didn't give him time to do so as the man rushed and him and swung out towards him, Mars easily blocked the first swing with the bottom of his boardsword before he spoke
”Do you want to get die mortal? Because that can be aranged”
The man quickly pulled back and a lightning bolt struck Mars instantly making him feel slightly numb before he looked over at the woman wearing a robe and spoke
”You're annoying, would you stop that?”
”Never!”
”Well at least I asked nicely...”
Mars continued unwarping the boardsword while blocking blows from the man while he dodged the lightning bolts from the woman until finely the blade was fully unwrapped and a dull reddish-brown blade shone in the air, Mars used the body of the broadsword to block a ball of lightning before he slashed out at the man that hurriedly blocked but was sent him flying backwards by the force than Mars leisurely turned his back to the enemy and spoke to 78 that was engaged with a dozen soldiers
”Don't kill them”
”boo!”
78 stayed her blade and instead of killing the soldiers she just knocked them away, then Mars turned back to the fight with the two people when suddenly he felt something on his back and quickly dodged out of the way with [Instant movement] as Jake appeared and stabbed out where he had just been standing
”...Don't you know that's it's cowardly to go for the back?”
Jake pulled back his mithril sword and looked at Mars
”You're the one that betrayed humanity!”
Mars gave a sigh as suddenly the temperature dropped around him and spoke
”Who says I am human in the first place?”
Jake gave a shrug before he responded
”Well you sure look human, you betrayer”
Mars gave a wide smile as the temperature dropped even more before horns gradually grew out of his forehead while his eyes turned crimson
”I really hate being called human...”
