361 Chapter 360



Seeing Alex\'s piercing gaze, Barack felt as if the man before him was testing him by asking him such a question in this situation.

Seeing his hesitation, Alex spoke, "I am new here and your commander had already abandoned you all and was sneaking out but I caught him."

"So as the next most senior official, I want your opinion, "Alex spoke while slashing the spread along with the man who sneaked an attack on him.

Barack was flustered for a moment and squeezing out his courage, he said"Sir Alex, as you can see, the situation seems to be quite bad on our side. If we think about the lives of the remaining soldiers here, I think it is best to retreat to the third defence line and try to stop their raid from there as you might already know once the third line falls, four cannot even offer a resistance."

"But if we retreat, the enemies would conquer two defence lines which may prove to be quite crucial and if another one falls, they might be able to take a part of the western front."

"We have a small forest along with a narrow hill pass in between the second and third defence line. They needed to clear the place to traverse through it and continue to supply the needs."

"But with their numbers, it might be quite easier."

"The only thing that we can do for the Kinley now is to sacrifice our lives and try to drag them down and lessen their numbers as much as we can. If we can push them through the gates, we might be able to repair the wall and put out some fences to form another line."

That was the only thing Barack could think of.

Alex looked around. There should be around 25,000 troops stationed here and looking at the mess, he was sure two-fifths of them were gone.

He didn\'t know the exact number but there were approximately 35-40,000 on the other side and if you take the number with which they started from the first defence line, there might be around 100,000 soldiers and half of them might be stationed at the first defence line which could act as reinforcement.

Alex closed his eyes for a moment and started to visualise the scenarios.

"We will retreat."

His words shocked them a bit but they naturally agreed with him. It was a hopeless scenario, to begin with.

With a huge mass of enemies rushing ahead at them, how could they secure this place which was already in ruins?

But just then, he heard Alex\'s voice, "Only if we can\'t win here."

"But before that, we will take care of the things here."

"I will secure the space for you. Barack gathers the mage and forms an earthen wall over the fences once we push out the enemies."

"I am not much familiar with the troops here, so I order you to take charge and secure the space we clear and try to back up my forces who cut the way."

Barack along with his others couldn\'t help but be shocked as soon as they heard his words.

Everyone thought Alex was impulsive and it was just asking for death.

Trying to secure land now was akin to taking the bone from a monster\'s jaw while expecting to not get caught by the jaws.

Seeing their worried faces, Alex spoke"I know what you are worried about but I am not one of those fools who throw away their lives for nothing. Even, I fear death."

"So, trust me."

"Your Highness."

Soon a group of soldiers arrived behind him drenched in blood with a fiery gaze. There were no wounded ones among them and no one was out of breath even though they came here over the swarm of enemies, rather each of them seemed to be filled with life and vitality.

Their eyes locked on everyone like a predator who is preparing to devour the prey.

Along with Alex\'s men, many others had been training under him in the Western Garrison Quarter and within the month of training, they started to shed away their laziness and pick the true spirit of the warrior.

Alex smiled a little seeing.

"My men, the orders are simple."

"We need to slaughter our way till the gate and push some people out of the house."

"Can you do it?"

"Just push. I thought we would be kicking them out." Max shouted like a hungry wolf. The axe under him was shining and seemed to be gleaming joyfully and wanted to drink more blood."

"So, what are you waiting for? Let\'s go."

"Yes My Lord."

All of them shouted in unison and a burst of aura erupted from all of them that started to radiate throughout the place.

No one questioned Alex.No, one tried to speak against it even though the risk was quite great.

Fear...was there any need.

With their Lord who is akin to the messenger of Death leading from the front, was there a need to fear?

It should be enemies who should be prepared to suffer the blow and fear their Lord\'s rampage.

"Wait! Didn\'t you say that you will be acting Commander so why are rushing first?" Barack asked as he felt that his brain had short-circuited after seeing Alex\'s aggressive demeanour

The commander stays at the back and gives the order so since when did a commander walk to the front?

"Don\'t compare me to those cowards."

"I am a King, a leader."

"And a real leader leads from the front and clears the path for his men."

Alex\'s words baffled them, shocking them to their core.

Alex under their astonished gaze stepped ahead and charged followed by his men.

The gates were opened and thousands of Arkham soldiers were pouring in. Kinley soldiers who went out to defend had only been turned into corpses and the ones inside were already in their end ropes.

Against the thousands of Arkham soldiers, only 2000 Kinley soldiers were trying to defend themselves. The difference in number was quite vast.

The area around the walls and the Castle was soon taken over by Arkham.

While many were still fighting bravely, many were running away in fear and wanted to save their life.

They abandoned the others and ran back seeing the enemies who had flocked past them were taken care of.

Unlike the soldiers who were running away in fear, Alex\'s steps started to take pace, and his speed increased by several folds in an instant.

The soldiers feeling away were perplexed seeing a man running towards them like a madman.

They tried to give away while fleeing but Alex, carrying great momentum, slammed against them and swept them away.

Alex was already merciful for not killing them for abandoning their companions.

Leaving dust behind him, Alex emerged from the crowds of frantic soldiers who were running away and charged at the enemy.

The enemy soldiers were enjoying chasing after the soldiers of Kinley shouted in delight.

"Haha...What a fun game?"

"Run...Run...Run away from us."

The Arkham soldiers laughed gleefully and enjoyed the situation but their laugh didn\'t last long as something hit them in the chest and the ones at the front were sent back flying.
