Flay was impressed at the plan of Arthen. Nevertheless, his heart felt conflicted because of his desire to kill, and his thirst for vengeance had been slowly affecting him.
“I guess Pluton is really affecting me. Now that I think about it, I should have had Arthen and Clint’s way of thinking. I’m sure Xandra and the rest had this planned.” Flay sighed.
“Alright. I agree with your plan.&rdquo

Chapter 357: The Creature of the Mind
The legendary staff had been known throughout the kingdom.Bersius had experienced a series of shocks.From certain death brought about by wicked men and the unfair treatment he had endured throughout his life, to being saved by a random youth, meeting the princess, and now seeing a legendary staff in action.The entire army of beasts received the attack, and already, more than a quarter had died.The pit trap was just too effective. The deep cavern underneath allowed them to create a vast hole large enough for an army to fit. And with Flay leading the mad beasts down, all the beasts did not hesitate to dive deep inside, and not one had even tried to climb out of the pit.The mages' spells, which used the excess stones and earth nearby, also gave them an affordable and easy means of casting as they began to shoot earthen spells at the horde.Ephesus, Darwood, Jeggs, and Embers also unleashed numerous Brute attacks from above.But even with the attacks from above, the beasts ignored th
Chapter 356: Into The Pit (2)
“You! Help us cover the pit! The stone spikes take the least priority!” Danespark called out to Bersius as he saw the skillful earthen abilities summoned by the mage.Bersius quickly rushed over and began to help.Together, spells and powers were summoned as all four worked together to accomplish the odd plan. Danespark focused on strengthening the edges of the pit while Bersius manipulated the clay, spreading it across the opening and carefully maintaining its thickness. Relos supported the structure with his own magic, ensuring that the covering would remain stable until the beasts arrived.Estelle barked order after order as she also began to use the power of her staff to cover the deep pit.After a few minutes, Estelle, Relos, Danespark, and Bersius managed to cover nearly the entire pit with clay, leaving only a small portion unfinished.Meanwhile, during those minutes, Flay had been moving in and out of the horde as he fought and wrestled with the wild beasts.He had already sla
Chapter 355: Into The Pit (1)
It was a strange scene, with Estelle explaining to the spirit of Orvendus that he needed to create a powerful spell that would dig up a huge hole.The proud and ancient spirit, who had once been bound to a legendary staff and was used to great magic of refinement and battle, seemed confused at the crude nature of the request. To him, such a spell was not something worthy of the name of Orvendus. A hole could be made by many lesser mages. A pit could be formed by a few coordinated earth spells. Yet the Princess was not merely asking him to create a hole. She was asking him to shape the land with enough precision, speed, and stability that it could swallow an army of raging monsters without collapsing in the wrong direction.But the confused spirit had no choice but to follow the will of the caster.With Estelle’s magical control, the magic penetrated deep into the ground, creating gaps and cuts to make a deep pit. The earth trembled as the spell moved below the surface, and the dirt an
The Counter Counterplot
“A Counter-Counter Plot?” Flay echoed back as he shot another arrow.FWIP!The arrow was not fired with great strength, and any proper archer would have sneered at how pitifully weak it was. But Flay was not shooting to kill. He was shooting with the precision of someone who could hear the muscles of the beasts tense, watch their ugly limbs prepare to leap, and strike the very moment when a paw, claw, or twisted limb pressed against the ground and needed only a small interruption to ruin the beast’s movement.CRASH!Another Anomalous Beast tripped forward and rolled across the field, causing several beasts behind it to stumble and roar in anger.Of all the plots that Flay thought the Duke would throw at them, this was one of the worst possibilities. Anomalous Beasts appearing in the South at the same time that Princess Estelle’s party arrived was not just a monster attack, it was a political trap that would place blame on anyone who could be linked to strange beasts, dark beasts, forei
Chapter 353: The Counterplot (2)
On the outskirts of the kingdom,…The mages and armed knights serving a certain baron rushed forward, riding on their mounts.They did not travel with the banners of their houses raised high. They carried only a small escort and moved under the guise of inspecting village defenses. No one questioned this. The Duke had ordered preparations for war, and nobles traveling to check storehouses, roads, and fortifications were not suspicious.But their true destination was not a village.Beyond a dead forest and past a ravine where no farmer dared graze cattle, there was an old quarry that had been abandoned long before the Duke rose to power. Its stones were blackened, and strange red marks had been carved into the walls. The air smelled of blood, rot, and old fear.At the center of the quarry was a closed cave that had a large steel door closing off the entire mountain. The mountain had long been full of monsters, and so, everyone gave up mining, and it turned into a den of monsters.But be
Chapter 352: The Counterplot (1)
The doors opened, and the nobles who had just remained to argue against the Duke stepped out with angry faces and loud voices.“This is madness! The Duke has finally lost himself in his pride!”“He thinks that because he holds the Southern Fort, he can command all our lives like pieces on a board!”“If the Princess comes here and witnesses the poor state of our lands, what then?! Will the Duke have us shout praises while villages burn?!”The nobles complained as loudly as they could, and the guards who stood outside could only keep their heads lowered as the lords and ladies of the South began to curse and argue as they walked away from the Duke’s council chamber.Some of the other nobles who had already left earlier glanced back and rolled their eyes. To them, this was nothing new. There had always been a faction among the southern nobility that hated the Duke’s decisions. These nobles always stayed behind to complain, always shouted about his flaws, and always made themselves appear
