I Just Inherited The Arcane Emperor's Legacy



In just a few minutes, the fire from the trenches was extinguished. There were quite a few Magical Beasts that could use the water element among the Beast Wave. After the fire went and the trenches were filled up with the corpses of the Magical Beasts that fell into the trenches, the rest of the Magical Beasts walked over those corpses to cross over to the other side.

They started charging into the Aura Knights who were ready for them. The mages were trying their best to avoid hitting the Aura Knights along with the Magical Beasts, so they couldn't attack any of the Magical Beasts that were close to the wall. 

The Aura Knights were ready for the incoming Magical Beasts. The majority of the people in the front were 2nd Circle Veterans who quickly took care of the Magical Beasts. The 1st Circle Aura Knights were still trying their best to adjust to the situation. Looking at these many Magical Beasts made a lot of the people lose their calm and start panicking.

At this point, the big figures finally started to move. The 3rd Circle Magical Beasts that were in the back and sending the weaker Magical Beasts to test the waters finally started to move forward. 4 of them moved first along with a lot of the 2nd Circle Magical Beasts.

They unleashed magic similar to the 3rd Circle Mages and hurled it at the Aura Knights defending the base of the gate. The Magistrate slammed his staff to the ground and blocked the incoming magic with a huge shield. After this, he took in a deep breath. Blocking just one 3rd Circle Spell would be very easy for him, but he had to block 4 at the same time.

Even though he blocked the brunt of the spells, one of them still managed to get past the shield that he had cast. It was weakened a lot by the shield but once it hit the Aura Knights, it injured a lot of them. The people who weren't affected quickly moved to that part to cover for the injured. Meanwhile, the 3rd Circle Mages flew out to meet the 3rd Circle Magical Beasts in battle.

"When's the last time we did this?" One of the mages talked to the other mages while they flew toward the wave. He took out his staff from his dimensional ring like the magistrate. His staff didn't have a crystal as big as the magistrate, but it was still a staff. The other mages also took out their staffs.

"Was it during the Hundred Year War?" The sole female mage said. "Also, I will take care of the Dark Snow Leopard."

"It was so long ago. I will take the Steel Back Gorilla." Another of the mages said.

They quickly divvied up the other two Magical Beasts. The Silvershade mage stayed at the back to assist anyone who needed help. The magistrate looked in the distance where a lion stood on top of a huge boulder, observing the battlefield.

He couldn't act as long as the lion didn't. They were both the strongest people on the field and would have to check each other.

The female mage who was fighting the Dark Snow Leopard quickly cast a Meteor at the leopard.  The meteor flew to the leopard, which dodged it nimbly. The meteor hit the surrounding 2nd Circle Magical Beasts and killed them on the spot.

The leopard closed in toward the mage, but she quickly flew back. The leopard cast magic at her in response. She deflected the incoming Ice shards that the leopard flung at her. Since she was using fire magic, she had an upper hand on the leopard which used Ice attacks.

Meanwhile, the other mages were also doing very well in their battles. They had picked Magical Beasts that were weak against the element they were best at. However, before they could finish their battles, the rest of the 3rd Circle Magical Beasts suddenly entered the battle too. The mages quickly retreated. They knew they wouldn't be able to take all 8 of the Magical Beasts at once.I think you should take a look at

The magistrate frowned. He held his staff high up in the air and then pointed it at one of the Magical Beasts that just entered the battlefield - a Crimsonscale Serpent. A huge meteor made of ice formed and flew to the serpent. It crushed the serpent who couldn't dodge in time.

The mages looked back at the magistrate with a look of relief. With one of the Magical Beasts gone, they would have an easier time dealing with the others.

On the ground, Clarice was having a breakdown. She was somehow still alive and was killing the Magical Beasts that got to her, but every time she looked up she saw a scale of battle that she could never reach. She was still effective at cutting down the 1st Circle Magical Beasts and the mages took care of most of the 2nd Circle Magical Beasts before they got to her.

She looked up to where Evelyn was and saw that she was focused on firing away all the arrows she could at the incoming Magical Beasts. Lucas was just a few meters away and was very unhelpful. He was not managing to deal a lot of damage, but it was better if he was there than if he was not.

She saw an incoming 2nd Circle Magical Beast and got ready. She took a deep breath and circle around the tank in front of her to attack the beast from the side.

Back in the air, once the magistrate took care of one of the 3rd Circle Magical Beasts, the mages gathered together and attacked all of the Magical Beasts at once. They were using their spells in combination. Even though they were all from different families, they all knew how to work with each other very well. 

The Silvershade mage was in the back chanting an incantation. He was preparing a huge spell to use and was gathering power for that. Meanwhile, the rest of the mages were defending him from the barrage of attacks from the Magical Beasts who realized what he was doing.

He almost finished the incantation and got ready to cast the magic. He waved his staff, ready to cast the magic.

At this point, a loud roar echoed through the battlefield. Everyone suddenly stopped. The Silvershade mage coughed up blood because he was interrupted in the middle of casting magic. The other mages quickly retreated back and grabbed him along with them.

Everyone on the ground was trembling with fear once they heard the roar. Their innate instinct kicked in and it was telling them to run away as far as possible. The roar seemingly paused all combat.

From the distance, the lion leaped forward. With only a few leaps it made its way to the center of the battlefield. It had golden fur that glistened in the sun and bright purple eyes that shone clearly for everyone to see. 

It roared again and all the Magical Beasts bowed to the lion. It was very clear that the lion in front of them was their king.
