Chapter 575 An Honourable Leader

'Boom!'

Everyone was looking at the scene before them in shock.

And for a moment, the enemy didn't know whether to retreat or advance.

"C...Captain Belbooza, what do we do now?"

Many of the invaders started asking their squad leaders on what to do next... As they are a little bit terrified if stepping into this sort of danger zone.

They had just a fraction of their men get blown up, while another fraction got injured instead.

So how could they just walk in just like that?

'Ahhhhhhhhh!'

The shrill cries of the injured could be heard all across the battlefield.

The second sector was now somewhat foggy, which added an extra mystery to the entire scene.

Many of the men now stood as still as a board, do fear that when they stepped in... They would then be blown up as well.

So they stood on the same spot and looked at their Captains inquisitively instead.

Eli and Connor..... who had also seen the large mushroom cloud of smoke from a distance, both wore grim expressions on their faces when they thought about the whole ordeal.

How in heaven's name did this cousin of theirs create such a large explosion?

And more importantly, what other tricks did he have up his sleeves?

They calmly sent out instructions to the Captains in their camps, who then relayed the information to the rest of their men instead.

"Men!

Don't be afraid!

This is the last sneak attack that these bastards have planned out.

So vigilantly move in and destroy the third gate now.

That's an order!"

"Yes, Captain!"

And soon, the enemy advanced calmly rather than running in as they did initially.

William on the other hand, still looked at them causation too before finally giving another signal to the archers again.

Of course this time, the archers directly shot arrows of fire towards the next batch of barrels... That were somewhat far away from the first batch.

And just like before, another ground-shaking explosion occurred again.

'Boom!'

'Ahhh!'

Another batch of intruders were injured again.

The intruders all shifted from fright while struggling to control their emotions again.

"C..... Captain, didn't you say that these people didn't have any more tricks up their sleeves?"

(:-_-)

.

William kept giving these people hell, before finally concluding his series of attacks on them.

Of course, his best attack of all..... was when some of them had inhaled hallucinations powder which made them fight one another again.

For some, the powder even made them see the closest person to them as a monster.

Hence they went berserk and quickly decided to chop down all these monsters that seemingly came their way.

"Get away from me, you beast!"

'Swish!'

"Did you just kill one of our men?

I knew it!... You all are not to be trusted.

Now how are you going to blame the enemy again?

The first time was because of a rope that the enemy had left, but now...you took it upon yourself to kill one of our brothers just like that without the enemy's help.

So aren't you guilty?"

"I said get away from me you ugly demon!"

"Who are you calling ugly?

By any chance, are you trying to make me kill you?"

'Ting!'

Sigh... These people had been taking so many breaks to fight each other at this point, that William didn't know whether he had over bullied them or not.

"Everyone!

Stop fighting and tear off a piece of fabric and tie around your nostrils now!" Said one of the Captains, who used to be a poison master too.

In a flash..... Everyone quickly understood what was really going on and couldn't help but curse the enemy all the more.

Yes!

It was the enemy's fault that they had lost their brothers on the battlefield.

That was why they had decided to kill them mercilessly when they finally got across the third gate.

Immediately, the enemy archers cautiously walked forward calmly... For fear that they would enter uni another trap again.

At this point, William was done with all his tricks and scenes, so he hastily signalled for the archers to leave the third wall and escape from here.

.

'Din! Din! Din! Din! Din! Din! Din!'

The elite archers ran down the flight of stairs in a haste and hurriedly made their way towards the main building at the back of the estate.

Of course, Capris and William followed behind them too.

But just when Capris and the rest had entered the main building, William suddenly stopped and smiled warmly at them.

Capris and the rest turned around in confusion.

"Commander Charles let's go... Time is not on our side."

"Commander Charles, why aren't you moving?"

While the others spoke, Capris looked at William sorrowfully... Before suddenly kneeling before him.

"Young master... No!... Your majesty...

Please let me stay behind with you during these tough times."

--silence--

(°□°)

The moment the others heard Capris, they were so overwhelmed with shock that their bodies started trembling vigorously.

All this while, they had been with the young master?

But why?

Why didn't he escape?

Of course deep down, they knew the answer to that question... And judging by the way things looked, it seemed like the young master wanted them to escape without him.

But that was impossible!

They would die wherever he died, and that was that!

They also dropped to their knees as well and bowed their heads slightly.

William finally removed his helmet and quickly stopped them from protesting.

"Please... Raise your heads.

Right now, I order you all to escape.

Should any of you choose to disobey me, then I will no longer consider any of you as my people.

Apart from that, I will need you all to look after my family too.

Don't worry, I've thought everything through... And I know that even if I'm caught, I wouldn't be killed immediately.

Most likely, they would probably tort or me for days... But if any of you were caught, you would be killed on the spot.

So what I'm saying is that you should all live today, to fight tomorrow.

Do you all understand?"

"Yes, Young Master!" They replied in unison while clenching their fists in determination.

No matter what, they had to quickly rescue their young mater after this.

"Young Master... Then what will you be doing while we flee?"

"Hm... Have you forgotten that we still have some black-powder spread out across the third sector?

Of course, I'll be here to give them hell before they ever catch me.

And don't forget that I have to also blow up all the building's entrances.... so that no one would be able to chase after you all when you finally escape.

Also, you all shouldn't forget to blow up the room that leads to the secret passageway... After you all have successfully left the room.

Men... It has been my honour fighting alongside you all.

Now go!"

"Yes, Young Master." They said while wiling away their tears.

Their young master was truly noble.
