77 End of the Battle (1/2)
”Come on he's just one man, not a god” one of the rebels shouted as Warren tried to defeat General Hozai.
The battle between Warren's men and General Hozai was not coming to a stop and General Hozai's superior battle prowess and experience nearly made him invincible as he knocked out most of Warren's men.
Watching the fight from afar Gael cursed at General Hozai in his mind and the soldiers who started to revolt were terrified at seeing Warren's men getting knocked down one by one.
However when the battle seemed to be going in General Hozai's favor, suddenly a bolt of light struck the middle of the battlefield.
General Hozai halted his offense on Warren's men and looked at the place where the light struck cautiously.
While looking General Hozai and the others could vaguely see a figure with feminine features slowly walking towards General Hozai.
”Half elf” Warren mumbled under his breath as the woman came closer to them.
”Who are you?” seeing the half-elf walking towards him General Hozai asked the half-elf and firmly gripped his sword as his instincts told him that the half-elf before him is a very powerful individual.
Obviously the half-elf was Arrora and when she heard General Hozai's question she didn't answer it quickly but looked at the awestruck men around her for a moment.
Even though General Hozai was very powerful compared to Warren's men, Arrora noticed he didn't kill them but just injured them.
”You are not fighting against the rebels but fighting against these people's hope and freedom General” Arrora didn't shout but her voice was magically enhanced so her voice could reach everyone's ears.
The moment her gentle voice reached their ears the people who were previously shouting, the soldiers who were revolting and all of them near the stage went silent and stood watching Arrora in a shock.
Although General Hozai has seen elves and half-elves, this is the first time he has seen a half-elf without slave chains and ragged clothes.
”It doesn't matter who I am General, stand down and let these people have their freedom and hope back”
General Hozai didn't answer her but shook his head and let out a deep breath
”It's my duty to defend my king even though he's like King Hedor” General Hozai said.
”Then I have to stop you General” as Arrora said her silver sword appeared in her hand.
Recognizing the battle with the half-elf is eminent General Hozai and feeling the powerful aura radiating from the half-elf, he leaped towards her with his full speed to attack.
Warren and his men's eyes went wide when they realized that this is General Hozai's true power as they saw the magical fluctuations around his body. However their eyes opened even further when they saw Arrora's figure blurred as she disappeared and appeared near General Hozai in a flash.
No one could see General Hozai and Arrora's figures as they could only see two blurs moving around. General Hozai didn't expect that she would be this fast since he could barely dodge and block her attacks and even though he had a feeling that she's not attacking him with her full power.
As time went by General Hozai couldn't block all of her attacks and sustained some injuries from her silver sword. While fighting her General Hozai was able to see weird magical fluctuations around her body, he has never seen such magical fluctuations.
”What are we waiting for? come on” Joel's shout broke the silence and made Warren and his men turn their attention towards the remaining army of King Hedor.
General Hozai couldn't stop them this time as he was already having a hard time-fighting Arrora and seeing the rebels running towards them the remaining soldiers went pale and prepared to defend their king.
”FOR EMIR!!!!” The rebels shouted as they clashed with the soldiers, some of the nobles used this chaos as a distraction and slipped away while others picked weak-looking rebels and started to fight with them.
Warren didn't waste his time fighting the soldiers as he leaped on the stage and knocked down the two soldiers guarding King Hedor.
”So you are the one leading this rebellion huh?” Gael asked Warren while taking out his sword from the sheath.
”Your reigns end here King Hedor”
”Is it?” Gael said with a devilish smirk on his face.
The city square was now turned into a battlefield as only metal clashing and screams of soldiers could be heard. Gael knew he could easily defeat Warren but for Don and Knight's plan to work he must be defeated by Warren in a long fight.
”My lord we healed everyone like lady Arrora said” on the sky above the battlefield the hooded figures reported to Don.
”Good now go to the battlefield and heal everyone there but do that as everyone can see you” Don calmly said while looking at the battle between Gael and Warren.
”Yes my lord” they bowed towards Don and started to descend to the ground.
After a lot of exchanges, Warren could see King Hedor getting tired and exhausted. Gael gritted his teeth in pain as blood started to pour out of some of the wounds caused by Warren's sword.
”Surrender now King Hedor you lost” seeing General Hozai couldn't beat the half-elf who he guessed as someone sent by Joel's employer as well as the remaining soldiers getting defeated one by one in the hands of his men.
Seeing King Hedor didn't say anything Warren pushed his offense as his slashes made more and more wounds on King Hedor's body.
