RISE OF EROS

Zelfit's shout tensed all the defenders of the wall who began to adjust their armor and weapons for the coming battle. Zelfit yelled again when he saw that the monsters had advanced to the indicated point, "ARCHERS!!!".

All the archers and crossbow operators readied their arrows and when they heard Zelfit say, "FIRE!!!", they all released their arrows which filled the sky and rained down on the approaching monsters.

The archers and crossbowmen were made up of two lines. While the first rank fired, the second rank prepared their attacks and exchanged, thus achieving a continuous attack.

The monsters fell one by one with the rain of arrows, but soon the flying monsters reached the wall and the target changed. The archers and crossbowmen began to target the flying monsters.

Unfortunately, the air targets were much more difficult to shoot down and several of them had already entered the city and the attack had just begun, however, Zelfit had already foreseen that this would happen and therefore placed several expert magicians and archers inside the city to hunt down these monsters.

MVLeMpYr-chapter

As planned, bolts of different elements were soon seen shooting down the flying monsters, as well as arrows that seemed to cut through the air because they moved at insane speeds and their power was on the same level as a cannonball.

Although the plan worked and the flying monsters were shot down, the losses could not be avoided, since when their massive bodies fell, they destroyed several houses and it was unknown if there were victims.

Unfortunately, for that to happen was much more favorable than the flying monster landing inside the city and starting to destroy everything. While the flying monsters that entered the city were being shot down, the ground ones reached the wall.

Despite their large sizes, none of them were as tall as the wall, so the defenders focused on attacking from a distance, but as the bodies of the defeated monsters piled up, those who continued to attack used them as a springboard. to scale the wall.

Soon the wall became the battlefield. The huge, scaly monsters with claws, teeth, and tails in a single movement blew up dozens of men and only the really powerful were a match for these monsters alone.

Despite the hard fighting, the warriors on the walls were holding up well and the flying monsters that managed to invade the city were being shot down one by one, so Zelfit was pleased that everything was going according to plan, but it was at that moment that everything changed.

Unexpectedly the main gate of the city began to open. The city had 4 main gates, one at each cardinal point of the city. These doors were huge and had 2 security mechanisms.

The first was the gate itself. A robust 50-centimeter thick solid wood and steel door, sealed from the inside by 5 steel-clad wood slats.

The second mechanism is a solid steel grid with square patterns. This grate fell from the ceiling on both the outside and the inside of the gate, making it difficult to penetrate.

However, the door where the monsters were attacking had started to open and this upset Zelfit, as he knew that this should not happen and he immediately said to the man next to him, "Aldus, go to the door and capture the responsible, we have a traitor"

Aldus hadn't noticed the situation of the door, as he was concentrating on the monsters that caused great damage to the wall, but when he heard Zelfit he turned and saw how the door began to open.

Seeing this, his expression immediately changed. Aldus is one of the well-known knights of the kingdom and there are only 5 of them. In addition, for this emergency 2 of them were deployed, with Aldus being in charge of protecting Zelfit.

Even though his duty was to protect Zelfit, Aldus did not hesitate to abandon Zelfit when he saw the situation. Also, Zelfit is not weak enough to need protection, in fact, he is as strong as any of the 5 knights in the kingdom.

However, they did not know that they were falling into a trap. When Aldus left to stop the lifting of the gate, in the sky, on one of the flying monsters, there was a hooded man observing the situation.

Seeing Aldus run to the door, he lowered his hand as if ordering the monsters to dive, over the lookout where Zelfit was and the monster obeyed.

When the monster was seconds away from crashing, the cloaked man jumped out and watched as the monster crashed into the lookout, causing great destruction.

The hooded man landed a few meters from where the monster crashed and was looking to see if he had achieved his goal, only to hear a voice behind him, "Looking for someone?"

The hooded man was surprised because he did not feel the person who had gotten on his back and quickly withdrew, but a sword managed to destroy the hood that covered the man's head.

Zelfit was surprised to see the man in front of him since he was none other than Count Goston. Zelfit couldn't believe his eyes and angrily asked, "Are you behind the stampede?"

Zelfit is a smart man, otherwise, he would never have gotten the defense minister post, so when Goston appeared next to the monster that crashed into the lookout he immediately suspected that he was controlling the monster.

Despite the question, Goston did not answer and simply limited himself to attacking. On his hands, you could see some strange red tattoos that extended down his arms.

Although Zelfit did not know what they were, he was clear that they were not decorations, because now they were shining and although Zelfit did not feel anything, he soon found the reason, since he sensed the danger behind him.

Without hesitating for a second, Zelfit dodged to the side instantly sensing danger, and the next second a huge bird with a large beak stabbed the place where Zelfit was standing.

Rising up from the ground, Zelfit faced the monstrous bird, but before he could attack a second and third bird just like the one that attacked him, landed and began attacking him.

Zelfit wasn't an idiot and he immediately understood that Goston was controlling the monsters, although he didn't know how, he only intuited that the tattoos on his arms had something to do with that power.

With each passing minute, more monster birds came to the place and attacked Zelfit, which caught the attention of many guards, since it was strange for many flying monsters to gather like this. If they were terrestrial they would understand it, but the aerial ones did not have that behavior.

This suspicion alerted all the nearby guards and many rushed to the scene. Zelfit was dodging the attacks of the long sharp beak bird type monsters, it was more like a spear than a beak.

Goston watched from a sideline wrinkling his eyebrows, because he didn't know why he couldn't kill Zelfit. Goston was too naive, believing that he could eliminate Zelfit this way.

In fact, Zelfit could easily eliminate these monstrous birds, but he hadn't, as he needed to capture Goston, so he was buying time for reinforcements to arrive and close Goston's escape routes.

For his part, Goston had been completely deceived, as he thought Zelfit was in trouble, he never thought his opponent was just acting. This dynamic continued for a few minutes and Goston became suspicious, then he noticed that several warriors were approaching the place.

Not wanting to be caught, he clicked his tongue and prepared to escape, but at that instant, he heard Zelfit say, "Void Slash" and a blade of compressed air extended from Zelfit's sword and slashed the necks of all the monsters attacking him in just one hit.

Seeing Zelfit's power, Goston did not hesitate and tried to escape, but he did not manage to take two steps when he felt a blow to the back of his neck and fell to the ground unconscious. Zelfit who had eliminated his opponents warily looked at the hooded figure that had knocked Goston down because he did not know if he was an enemy or not.

Zelfit hadn't eliminated the monsters, not because he felt that someone had arrived and he could stop acting, but because he felt that Goston had discovered him and wanted to run away, he had no idea who the man in front of him was, so he raised his guard and was ready to attack.

As he was about to move, a small folded paper flew towards him and he easily caught it. Zelfit was surprised by the man's action, but still he noticed that the man had no fighting position and since he knocked out Goston he hadn't moved, so Zelfit opened the paper without lowering his guard.

When he saw what the paper said he was surprised and quickly looked up to look at the hooded man, but he had disappeared and had taken Goston.

Zelfit couldn't help but sigh as he said to himself, "That Demon is really someone powerful, I didn't even notice when he appeared or left." Minutes later Aldus and other guards arrived at the scene and were surprised to see that the observation post had been destroyed and that everyone except Zelfit was dead.

Although everyone wanted to know what had happened, there was no time for explanations, as the stampede continued and thanks to Goston's attack, the chain of command had been lost, which led to coordination between different battlefronts suffering and the monsters winning advantage and that had to be corrected or they could suffer big losses.
