Chapter 199 - Movement in the shadows

While Ren was fighting with his supposed descendant the siege battle was intensifying. Reynold the first prince suddenly arrived with his army and entered the fray. The moment Reynold joined the battle, Valdel was finally forced to go all out.

Niel who was expecting the tide of battle to turn into their favor was surprised to see Valdel's burst of power. Valdel with his sword at hand continued to simply mow down the enemy soldiers without killing them. Valdel's swordsmanship had improved greatly as his hesitation faded.

Reynold seeing that the flow of battle was shifting due to a single person felt really irritated at himself. If he was stronger then this wouldn't have happened. Still, he had no choice now as things have already been set in motion.

"Big brother, we need to get rid of him if we want to win." Niel who was biting his thumb spoke to Reynold who was beside him.

"Do you take me for a fool? Of course, I know that! But how do you propose we deal with that monster?!" Reynold was getting angrier and angrier by the minute. When he was getting ready for this siege battle he was expecting it to go differently.

Not only was he stopped by his most loyal retainer, but the battle he thought would be easy turned out to be far from it. Even though their side had overwhelming numbers, just one person was able to shift the tide of battle. Learning how truly weak he was and how strong the other side was just made Reynold gnashed his teeth in anger.

"Send the strongest among your men to deal with the girl. I will also send my men to deal with that guy. Once we isolate him and the girl, we just need to keep them away from the main battlefield. If we accomplish that we can steer the battle to our favor... Or if you want you can use our bloodline ability and use that one-time technique to deal with Valdel."

Hearing Niel's suggestion Reynold scoffed at his younger brother. 'This kid is truly treating me like a fool... But what he suggested is the best move we can do at the moment. I already know that if I used that technique not even Vadel could fight back, but... There's still Ren, that man is way worse than Valdel... I need to be wary of him.'

"Big brother are you worried about Ren intervening? Don't worry too much I have a plan to take him out." Niel said with a smile on his face. Seeing him acting like he knows everything just pissed off Reynold even more.

"Fine, I'll send my best man to attack the girl." Reynold reluctantly gave Niel an answer.

"That's good, I'll send my personal guards as well."

...

Valdel who was charging in the center of enemy lines suddenly dodged to the side. An earth spike suddenly appeared at the position he was in before. As Vadel was trying to regain his balance a man with a huge shield came charging at him.

Valdel using his Zweihánder attacked the man with the huge shield head-on. Berold who received Valdel's attack was surprised to feel how strong it was. That attack was actually able to push him back quite a distance. Berold felt his hands shaking from the impact as he saw Valdel dashing towards him ready to press on his attack.

Valdel who was about to strike suddenly stopped and jumped backward as a man with a spear fell from above. In mid-jump, the man with a spear swung the halberd on his left hand at Valdel. Valdel blocked the incoming strike and was blasted away.

When Valdel landed on the ground while sliding he sensed something and shifted his head to the side. The moment he did so Valdel's right cheek started to bleed, a throwing knife just passed by him without him seeing it. While trying to find the attacker Valdel heard a woman's laugh and saw someone charging from the side.

The woman in question held a sword that was even larger than his Zweihander and she casually swung it at him. Valdel was surprised to see that the woman's attack was actually almost as strong as his.

Seeing Valdel having a hard fight Lara was about to jump in and help but someone blocked her path. It was one of Reynold's men that had ambushed Valdel and reported about Ren.

...

With Lara and Valdel were being held up, the situation once again changed. Without the powerful force of Lara and Valdel, the princes' side were able to deal more damage than the first day of the siege.

Once nighttime came the army of both the princes retreated back. Unlike the first day this time, they were able to deal a significant amount of damage to Iselv's forces.

...

It has been three days since the siege started and as most of the attention was on New Grenton, spies from the enemy kingdom of Serbek had reported the current situation to their home country.

The Warrior King of Reschbeauch, Willmont was still at the southern borders fighting a part of the Serbek army. The two princes were busy trying to capture their supposed third brother and punish the citizens of New Grenton. The princess was also out of the picture, and the cities in the Kingdom of Reschbeauch were in a chaotic state at the moment.

This was the best time for the Serbek kingdom, they finally have a chance to be able to get rid of their long time enemy.

Upon receiving the message of their spies that they placed in Reschbeauch, the Kingdom of Serbek made their move.

...

While the main force of Serbek distracted King Willmont, a small detached army was sent out as a vanguard. The army had silently passed the borders but their food supplies were lost on the way. Now hungry and tired the army was able to find a village that seems to be protected by mercenaries and adventurers, which they found odd.

Though it was an unusual sight and normally they would try and gather information first about the village in question. But due to hunger and their continuous march, the vanguard of the Serbek army decided to raid the village without planning anything. Seeing as the adventurers and mercenaries were only a few dozens, they thought that it would be an easy raid. A simple swift attack with their overwhelming numbers would crush the village. Unknown to them this was a decision they would regret dearly.
