Lord Evolution: Starting With SS-rank Skills

Bryce and the men who protected Rowan earlier watched the new state of the battlefield with shocked expressions on their faces. Their eyes and mouths were wide open as they observed intently.

They could see all of Glenwood's soldiers retreating as they cried out in fear. As they ran, they even mentioned the name of Rowan and called him a demon, which made Bryce and his men, as well as every Winterseed soldier, stare in total confusion, wondering if their opponents had suddenly gone crazy!

Even the horses had begun to escape the battlefield.

Some of Glenwood's men fell on the ground and were trampled upon by their own comrades and even the horses.

Bryce and the others spotted a figure sprinting madly after the retreating soldiers. The figure had the same armor Rowan was wearing before he collapsed, which made their eyes widen.

They saw the supposed figure of Rowan suddenly accelerate at an impossible speed as he arrived before the soldiers, who had their backs turned against him.

They saw his hand make a swift slash through the air, and more than three soldiers collapsed, causing their comrades to cry out in terror and agony.

Bryce's eyes widened as he noticed the black dagger in the hands of the menacing figure. It was the exact Black Dagger Rowan had on him when he punished Oliver and Judus.

"Everyone, it is Lord Rowan!" Bryce yelled, his eyes lighting up.

The other men had already noticed by now that the figure wasn't a 'Demon' but rather it was their Lord Rowan.

"Support Lord Rowan, let no man escape!!" Bryce lifted his sword and chanted.

The men around and behind him let out a collective battle cry and sprinted forward.

The other Winterseed men around the battlefield also joined Rowan in slaughtering their enemies after noticing it was him.

The tide of the battlefield once again turned in Winterseed's favor, their vigor and motivation, which had suddenly disappeared due to Rowan's unconscious state, returned — this time manifold!

Even Bryce, who was badly wounded, moved his body as fast as he could and chased after the escaping soldiers.

Far away from the battlefield, Liara and Ren observed everything taking place with puzzled expressions.

Due to the distance between them and the battlefield, they were able to observe everything happening.

They saw when Rowan fell to the ground, when he suddenly rose up, and even the strong aura that blasted away everyone around him. They even saw him sprinting into action!

Having observed everything, their faces remained dumbfounded and their mouths and eyes refused to return back to normal.

On the other end of the battlefield, Lord Fagin could be seen trying to crawl away. He had been crawling for hours since Winterseed soldiers suddenly popped out of the forest to attack. But now, seeing his men retreating toward his direction, he crawled even more intently.

'Why are those lazy bastards retreating?!' he cursed inwardly.

Even crawling was difficult for him due to his excessive fat figure. He gritted his teeth and pushed himself even more, but the strength in his body was incapable of helping him.

'No, I need to escape! If I can get to Glenwood, I can station my remaining soldiers to defend me!' he thought with gritted teeth.

The stomping sound of his soldiers sprinting fearfully toward him caused his heart to race uncontrollably.

He turned to look behind him, and the scene wasn't pleasant at all — it was like watching a pride of lions running hungrily toward him; it was terrifying!

At this moment, about a hundred soldiers were already close to him.

"Stop running and fight! Why are you disgracing Glenwood!" He quickly barked orders at his soldiers, expecting them to understand the situation, grab their weapons, and return to the battlefield.

But it was quite the opposite — no one listened to his orders!

It was almost as though he was speaking to a bunch of lifeless puppets. Even their gazes didn't seem to hold any respect or reverence for his position.

"Are you deaf? Go back and fight! Why are you afraid of a small and weak army like Winterseed?" Fagin kept barking orders, trying to stop his men, but none of them paid attention to his words.

'No, no, this can't be happening! How am I the one escaping instead of Winterseed?!' he thought.

He continued barking orders, even going so far as to threaten to banish all of them if they didn't listen to him.

But the words fell on deaf ears.

As his men drew closer, he could hear them screaming "Demon!" and he became even more confused.

Just then, he spotted a strange figure sprinting amid his men.

Nevertheless, unlike his soldiers, this one wore a different uniform and held a strange dagger.

As he ran through the soldiers, his hands swiftly moved, and everyone in his path fell to the ground, dead.

Those nearby made way and sprinted in other directions, some even running into the bushes despite the danger that lurked there.

As Fagin looked closer, he recognized the face — it was Rowan.

'No! He's coming for my head!'

As he turned to escape, the men who were closer ran past him, screaming for help.

Some of them didn't even acknowledge his presence and stomped on his fat body as they fled.

He let out cries and cursed them for their disrespect, but none seemed to be listening at that moment.

Fagin could only give up on crawling and turn to face Rowan with terrified eyes.

Meanwhile, Rowan, his face cold and expressionless, continued to slay as many soldiers as he could.
