Chapter 2381 Risks

Two huge armies containing millions of people are running across the grassy ground. The human army is about a million strong, containing Lord’s to Tyrant, aside from Knights, every type of powerhouse present in the battlefield.

The human army contains nearly a million people, and the Grimms have three times more numbers than that. Nearly 60% of the people on this battlefield are from the minor continents and the ones who fought battles in the war.

”Simon, what do you think of Battlefield 138?” asked Lady May, watching the two armies getting closer and closer to each other.

”We have an advantage in the lower level powerhouses, and our Tyrants are also equally matched. Most importantly, we have the edge over the enemy Grandmaster but not enough to kill it,”

”The viable option keeps whittling away enemy forces in each battle till we finish off all the lower level of Grimm forces,” He replied. It is not an ideal outcome of the battle, but one rarely gets that in the war.

Few seconds after he replied, both of the armies clashed, kings began to fight kings, Emperors against Emperors, and Tyrants against the Tyrants.

Within a few minutes, two screens captured the most focus in the central command, the battle of Grandmaster Raven on the battlefield 211 and the thunderous battle being fought in margrave prairie.

Currently, only leaders and below-class powerhouses are fighting, but it won’t be long before others join.

Hun!

All were focused on the battles when suddenly the projection of Lord of glass disappeared from his seat, and before anyone could say anything, another projection appeared. This one of feeble old women with bright eyes.

Grand Tower Mistress Angela Leon

Unlike the Lord of the glass, whose projection was frozen like a statue, Lady Angela’s projection is real, and she is looking around like a normal person. Though nobody spoke to her, the councilmembers have just given her a bow before continuing with their business.

About forty minutes passed, and I have to say, I was quite sure surprised by the Grandmaster Ravens tenacity. 

Despite being at a disadvantage and even receiving quite injuries from it, he was still able to hold on against the Hogman. If it had anyone at his place, they would have retreated already, but he did not even though he could, as there is no army he needs to protect.

It is only he and the Grimm Hogman who are fighting above the desert.

While Grandmaster Raven is fighting, a change had finally occurred on the battlefield 138. The Masters finally come out, including Danielle and Leonard. I could see a change in Elowyn’s expressions as her mother entered the battlefield.

”I have to commend you, Micheal; you have trained your mentees well. All of them have reached the Master’s class in an extremly short time,” said Raymond Leon, leader of Wisdom Tower.

He said it loudly, but the conversation was audible to councilmember and me; even people beside me could not hear what he said.

”Especially, this cousin of mine, nobody had throught she could reach a Master class, much less peak of it and have such power,” He said while looking at Danielle, who is his cousin; both of them are the direct descendants of Grand Tower Mistress.

”Lord Raymond is right, Micheal; our assessment had predicted these two would be able to reach the Master class with their talents, especially Leonard Atkins; it was already a miracle he was able to reach Leader class,” said Lady May with the hint of appreciation.

”Thank you for your praise Lord Raymond, Lady May,” I said with a smile. “It is not praise, Micheal but a fact. The resources could advance one to a level, but they could not give such power,” Grand Commander said, looking at a battle of Leonard and Danielle as both of them fighting the videttes.

Among the fourteen human Masters present on the battlefield 138, only Danielle and Leonard are capable of fighting the videttes, who had the power of at Masters limit. An extremly few numbers powerhouses could fight vidette of the same level.

I wonder how the council would react if the two of them revealed their powers, which now have increased further, especially of Danielle; she had made amazing strides.

”Grandmaster Raven, if you are fighting at your limit, retreat,” ordered Grand Commander. Even though Grandmaster Raven is still fighting, injuries are building upon his body, and if this continues, it will affect his performance.

I could understand why he had not retreated; the strain of war is forcing every human to improve fast, and most times, to improve at such a stage, people need to take the risk, especially the people like Grandmaster Raven who are past their prime.

A few minutes after Grand Commander’s order, Grandmaster Raven began to retreat, and that is when the real danger began as the Hogman had finally burst out with its real strength.

It immediately made the council members discuss the options, and there were only two options, whether to send the rescue or not.

The intel about the Hogman having more strength than it is showing is true, and now they have to decide whether Grandmaster Raven would be able to retreat on his own or they will have to send reinforcement.

Sending reinforcement does not always help as sometimes, the Grimms laid out the traps for the reinforcement actually; we have lot many Grandmasters due to it.

’See!’

I took a sharp breath when I saw the Hogman cut apart the Grandmaster Raven’s hand, but it seemed like the move was intentional on Grandmaster Raven’s part.

He had chosen to sacrifice his arm to make the retreat, and he succeeded, albeit barely; before Grandmaster Raven could fully retreat inside the fort, the Grimm was able to give him a pretty big injury on his back.

Sigh!

The screen disappeared, and the grand commander took a sigh before she turned toward us. “Taking risks is important, but you should also know your limit. Every risk comes with a price, and if you fail, you have to pay that price in death,” Grand Commander said and looked at battlefield 138, where shocking changes have appeared.
