93 Quite Bold (2/2)
”Yes, father!” Maxene excitedly replied.
”I've been itching for an all-out fight,” Even the usually stoic-faced Sura shared their enthusiasm.
”Sigh. This family is truly bloodthirsty,” Elder Aran didn't know whether to laugh or cry. It was to be expected.
After all, Sura came from a warrior race that was innately gifted in terms of combat.
Luna carried the bloodline of a proud True Dragon.
Maxene was influenced by both her parents, so her love for combat was expected.
Of course, Angry Bakunawa was always on standby should anything go awry. Luna was confident, but not to the point where he wouldn't account for anything unexpected. His death would cause the <Sovereign Nation>'s collapse, after all.
”Let's go,” Luna commanded as the trio disappeared from their current spot. As they got closer to the enemy's front line, they leaped forward.
*BOOM*
They landed in front of the crater that Luna had created earlier.
Elder Aran followed suit, covering himself in Lightning Armor he disappeared in a flash and caught up to the trio in no time.
”Sigh. I'm glad I got assigned to take command from here because there is no way I'm able to keep up with those four,” Paco laughed bitterly as he carried out the command Luna gave him before he left. ”Sovereign Nation! Your leaders are currently in the enemy's backline! Your goal is simple: Reach them in the shortest time possible and assist them!”
”What? Lord Luna?” The people who were feeling intimidated before forgot about their fear and their shock transferred to the fact that their leader was currently wading through the enemy's backline.
”Heh. Only our leaders would be daring enough to do such a thing,” a Soldier commented through comms.
”If Lord Luna, Lady Sura, Lady Maxene, and Elder Aran are willing to put themselves in danger, then what are you bunch acting all scared for?!” Paco compounded the others' statements, giving them the push that they needed.
This made the others feel ashamed. They knew that Paco's words were true. Luna was currently showing them through action that whatever danger they were being put through as of right now, he was willing to put himself in as well. And in a much higher degree at that.
-----------------------------------------------------
”WHAT ARE THEY DOING?! ARE THEY CRAZY?!” General Vizicsacsi was quite shocked when he saw what Luna and the rest did.
”General! This is the best opportunity! They've practically offered themselves to us! Let's surround them, exhaust them and take them out!” An Officer immediately suggested.
General Vizicsacsi hesitated. ”Do you think you understand the situation more than I do?!”
”My apologies, General! This lowly one spoke out of turn!” The Officer's face paled after being reprimanded. But he still couldn't understand why Vizicsacsi didn't follow his suggestion.
”I understand how you're all feeling. The next course of action seems obvious, and to be honest it's the only choice we have. But did you stop to think as to why that man would put himself in, what we see from our perspective, as a danger? Not only that, he would bring that person who is seemingly his lover and possibly their daughter?” Vizicsacsi replied, broadening the perspective of his Officers.
Luna held his Guandao in one hand, and Sura's hand in the other while Maxene stood in front of them, facing towards Vizicsacsi's direction. Anybody who saw this would guess that they were a family. The only reason why they didn't assume that Elder Aran was the grandfather was that he was obviously an Elf.
”Only the truly strong would be so daring. Have the men surround them, but have them focus on buying as much time as possible. Reach out to the other Generals closest to us and have them assist us right away!” Vizicsacsi prepared himself as a blue aura emanated from within him, giving his body a very bluish hue. Giving the visual as if his skin was formed from water. Giving the half-donkey General an imposing aura.
”This family is bold. Quite bold.”
Vizicsacsi clenched his fists. It was quite rare for him, but he felt a tinge of dread as he cast his gaze upon the Luna and the rest.
-----------------------------------------------------
”Looks like Donkey Papa Smurf over there is their leader, father!” Maxene pointed towards Vizicsacsi in the distance. It was obvious that her humor definitely came from Boni.
”Indeed. Let's see how strong he is, shall we? SCAN!” Luna quickly found out that the General was currently at level 70.
”Seventy? That's a bit low.” Sura commented.
”Let's not underestimate him. For someone to reach his position, it would be a mistake to assume he's just another Juan,” Luna warned. Not a lot of people were as lazy as the Engkanto they encountered before.
”I know. Just that, I'm sure I can defeat him by myself,” Sura smiled. One should never forget, after all, that the higher her level, the more her existing skills would increase in strength along with more skills being gained until she retained all of the ones she originally had before having her level being reset by the <Agimat of Attribute>.
Sura was the only person whom people were sure could go toe-to-toe with Luna in the <Sovereign Nation> and come out at least even.
