Heavenly Saga

Chapter 267: The Vanguard

Right after the fight had ended, Kraftvoll decided to enter the Vanguard Division because he wanted to have a chance to avenge the death of one of his new comrades, Dale.

To his surprise, a report was given toward the Supreme Commander Bato after he accepted the invitation of the old commander. They learned that another attack from the enemy was coming at them after they just managed to finish the other one.

After hearing the report, Kraftvoll thought to himself, 'What!? The previous battle had just concluded more than one hour ago! Our battalion does not yet recover from the previous one!'

As he was thinking those thoughts, he unconsciously looked at the supreme commander beside him. To his surprise, Supreme Commander Bato was able to maintain his composure the whole time. A moment later, the supreme commander shouted his command at the top of his lungs to guide the army under him.

Despite the exhaustion of all the soldiers under this particular battalion of the Bahaghari Kingdom, all of the soldiers that heard the command of their army's supreme commander decided to follow his command without any hesitation on their minds.

After he saw the composure of the old man, Kraftvoll said to him with all the determination that reflected his expression, "Sir, what do I do now?"

"Follow me, young man. I'll go to the Vanguard Division, anyway," said the old soldier in response to Kraftvoll.

That's exactly what he did. Kraftvoll walked alongside Supreme Commander Bato until they reached the Vanguard Division after walking for about a few minutes.

"Commander! This is Kraftvoll, a promising soldier that wanted to join your ranks! Take him under your command. I'm sure he will give you some promising result," said the supreme commander of the army.

'Who is this kid? Even Supreme Commander Bato is recommending him very highly,' the commander of the vanguard division thought to himself after hearing the command of the supreme commander of their army.

A moment later, the supreme commander had no choice but to accept the command so he said in response, "Yes sir!"

"Speed up your preparation, commander. The report stated that the enemy army was going to be here for a few dozens of minutes," said Supreme Commander Bato as he exited the area occupied by the vanguard division.

"Yes, sir!" said the commander of the division as he saluted to the supreme commander.

After a few moments, the commander of the vanguard division shouted at the top of his lungs, "You heard the Supreme Commander! Speed up all your preparation! The enemy army is upon us again with reinforcement this time!"

After hearing their commander, the soldiers under his supervision immediately followed his command without any hesitation.

Without knowing what he was going to do, Kraftvoll looked at the commander and he asked her, "Ma'am, what do I do?"

"Pick up a weapon of your choice in that room. After doing that, follow the other soldiers to the formation," said the commander of the division to Kraftvoll.

After hearing his first order from the division commander, Kraftvoll immediately went to the weapon room of the Vanguard Division. In there, he saw new weapon technology different from their own.

Instead of his usual reaction, Kraftvoll just picked two swords that he could easily use and he immediately went to the formation. After all, dawdling around is not permissible at this time. Also, he was still so focused on his revenge so he just went what he was asked to do.

After Kraftvoll entered the formation, he saw all of the other soldiers who were rushing to go to the formation because the enemy army is upon them. After all of the commanders of each division reported to the supreme commander, Supreme Commander Bato began his briefing before the battle.

The old supreme commander stood at the very front of the formation, a moment later, he shouted to his soldiers, "I'm sure that almost all of you are uncertain of what was happening at this moment. As the supreme commander of this army, there's only one thing that I could say to all of you."

All of the soldiers were silent as they were listening to their supreme commander. No one dared to say any words before their supreme commander could finish his words.

A moment later, the supreme commander continued on his briefing, "All must try to survive as much as you can! I already sent some messengers to the other battalion! As long as all survive until then, you will survive! Glory to the Bahaghari Kingdom!"

"Glory to the Bahaghari Kingdom!"

"Glory to the Bahaghari Kingdom!"

"Glory to the Bahaghari Kingdom!"

The soldiers chanted after hearing their supreme commander. In this situation, almost all of the soldiers tried to keep their morale high because it would only raise the chance of their death if they did not.

"Get ready, my men! Let's survive together!" shouted the commander as he went toward the center of the formation. 

The soldiers continued chanting "Glory to the Bahaghari Kingdom!" until they were able to see the approaching enemy.

Every soldier in the battalion suddenly fell into silence because they were awaiting the order of their supreme commander.

As soon as the sightings were reported to Supreme Commander Bato, he took a long breath. A moment later, he shouted at the top of his lungs, "CHARGE!!! SURVIVE AT ALL COST!"

Upon hearing the supreme commander, the soldiers from the vanguard division were the first ones to charge without any hesitation. 

'A death of a friend must be avenged!' Kraftvoll thought to himself as he charged alongside the soldier of the vanguard division.

Some soldiers from the Vanguard Division charged prior to Kraftvoll so he was behind the first line of soldiers that clashed with the first line of solider of the enemy army. 

Since that was the case, Kraftvoll was able to see the gruesome sights of the battlefield. People slicing, stabbing, impaling, and any sorts of things that you could do.

It was different from what he had seen earlier when was just a soldier in the medic unit. That's why Kraftvoll's whole body froze before he could even make a move against the enemy.

Before he knew it, one of the soldiers of the enemy army was about to strike him with her long sword. Due to his extreme fear, Kraftvoll was unable to make any move at all.

Fortunately, Kraftvoll's commander suddenly pushed him beside her. At the next moment, she used his halberd to stab the one that almost killed Kraftvoll.

"Snap out of it soldier! You will die if you let your guard down just like that, soldier! Get a hold of yourself!" shouted the commander of the Vanguard Division as she was piercing some soldiers of the opposing army.

After hearing the commander of the vanguard, Kraftvoll suddenly remembered the face of Dave's face when he had just died. Kraftvoll's hesitating face turned into that of a determined one at that very moment.

Now, Kraftvoll charged at the first soldiers that he could find the moment he became determined on his goal. Using his two swords at his hands, Kraftvoll slashed all the enemy soldiers that he could find.

As they cut more soldiers, more and more soldiers are coming to them without any form of restraint or whatsoever.

Although he was tired, Kraftvoll tried to not let his guard down event for one moment. After all, death will be the only one that he received if he did so.

After a few dozens of minutes of clashing with the vanguard soldiers of the opposing army, the archer division of both armies began their attacks toward their own opposing army.

"Draw!" Shouted the commander of the Archer Division of Kraftvoll's allied army. Upon hearing this command, all of the archers of the army drew their own archers as they get ready to launch it toward the soldiers of the opposing army.

After a few moments, the commander of the Archer Division shouted at the top of his lungs, "Release!"

At that very time, all of the soldiers from the archer division launched the arrows toward the opposing army. At the same time, the enemy archer division did the same thing.

At the first wave of the arrows, Kraftvoll was able to dodge and deflect the arrows that came on his way. 

Before he knew it, the second wave was launched again by both of the armies' archer divisions. This time, the arrows that were coming on Kraftvoll's way were way more than before. 

He was about to accept that he was going to be hit by some but that's when he saw the dead body of the person that he just killed earlier.

'In that way, I would not take any damage at all!' Kraftvoll thought to himself as he picked the corpse of the fallen enemy.

Before the arrows of the second wave could even hit, Kraftvoll used the body as a shield to protect himself.

"CALVARY CHARGE!"
