Chapter 291

Aegir POV

The center! Break through the center! That 100 gold is mine!

Your spear is broken? Throw some rocks! Plenty of those have fallen on the ground!

Ally soldiers flood through the middle of the enemy lines mounting a fierce attack, wielding swords or spears or even throwing rocks .

These guys are insane! Anyways, just push them back!

The enemy is rushing in so we dont have time to reorganize our formation! Line up sideways with your shields! Complicated orders are not necessary!

I see the Imperial army commanders desperately giving orders .

When I see that some places are not collapsing despite the chaos, I cant help but admire the skill of the Imperial army .

Even though more and more of our ally soldiers are pushing through the middle from the front, the enemy manages to defend decently while retreating .

At this rate, theyll counterattack the area where the soldiers are exhausted .

I run towards the enemy .

The enemy devotes himself to defend, propping up a shield and thrusting out his spear .

If I run in on Schwartz, the spear will land, and Id end up friendly firing if I wield my longsword .

Schwartz . Protect Celia .

I dismount from the horses back, holding the shield in my left, the longsword in my right, and the Dual Crater on my back .

Clear the path in front! If you get in the way, Ill run you over!

I shout while running from the back, pushing away the allied soldiers who are slow to get out of the way .

Uoh! What was that!?

A bear no, the general!?

Hes big yet hes so fast!?

Im not particularly slow-footed .

Ive raced against the secretly confident Myla before and won, then used the winners privilege to get her to service me with her mouth in the back alleys .

The shield and sword Im holding is pretty heavy, but that shouldnt matter when running such a short distance .

Move it .

The allies in front of me clear the path almost like bowling pins falling over .

I can see the line of enemies waiting with their shields up .

Lets get through that .

I position my shield in front of my shoulder and charge with my body behind it .

Its an attack with my shield, which I got Yakov to teach me how to do .

Thrust! Thrust and kill him!!

Pierce through his shield!

The enemy push their spears out altogether and I can feel the impact on my shield .

However this shield made out of a dragons scales can even repel cannonballs so mere spears wont penetrate it .

Their weapons break and I barrel straight through the enemy lines using the energy from my sprint .

Running through enemies with a shield pugyah!

Captain? Dowah!?

The enemy tries to defend with their shields the result was three people get sent flying back when they make contact with me, the surrounding enemies drop their shields and fall over .

That felt lighter than I thought . Ill go as far as I can just like this .

He tore through the front like paper! Back row, get ready!

It looks like the enemy has a double layer defense and I just got through the first one .

I keep the same speed as before and continue my charge towards the back line .

Fire!!

I quickly pull my face behind the shield when the crossbows launch their projectiles at me from the back row .

I hear multiple clangs as the bolts bounce off my shield and fall to the ground .

A normal shield may not have withstood the focus fire of crossbows .

Guh!

The bowguns hit spots other than my shield .

I feel two hit me in the leg, then two in my right shoulder .

I only feel a little bit of pain from the two that hit my shoulder because of the dragon skin armor stopping them from reaching my body, however one out of the two bolts which hit my leg stabbed the spot in between my pants and boots, causing blood to trickle out .

Well, our ally soldiers are acting recklessly too . This much was inevitable .

It hurts quite a bit, although it doesnt look like it will hinder me when I run or fight .

I pick up speed as I let out a beast-like roar .

What a guy, he cant be stopped!

Hes coming! Crossbows, stay behind the spears

There was a strong impact then screams . After that, enemy soldiers rolled to the ground after being sent flying, accompanied by the repetitive harsh grating of grinding armor .

Uwaaah!People are flying!?Five altogether!?

That was surprisingly easy .

When I turn around, a gaping hole was left in my wake after blowing past the front and back row .

This is the end!

I lower my hips and twist my upper body to store up power before spinning around once with my longsword .

Those who were knocked over and are trying to get back up, those charging at me with spears, the commander shouting angrily at me everyone within the range of my longsword gets cut in two through the center of their abdomen, the separated parts falling to the ground .

M-monster

One more thing as a bonus .

I slam my shield into the enemy who ducked to avoid my attack the first time, bashing his face in .

The shape of his head changed so I dont think I need to follow up with anything else .

The path is open so hurry up and come . Its because you dawdle around that youre called second class .

I shout at the soldiers who are standing still in amazement .

Oh ooooooh!!

Chargeeeeee!

Ally soldiers split the enemy apart through the hole in their formation, and more allies come up beside me .

Now I wont be the only one getting targeted . Of course the first one in front is Celia .

She throws her short swords at the enemy from close range, slips in close when the enemy blocks with their shields and then cuts their ankles .

Leaving the fallen enemies, she tumbles forward and makes the spear coming at her from behind stab the air .

As she recovers and gets back up off the ground, she points her sword at the enemy behind her, though it was unnecessary .

Ugyaaaah!

Before Celia could make a move, a giant black body crushes the enemy to death .

Schwartz flies in and mercilessly stomps on the soldier with his front legs, squishing the mans body along with his armor .

Celia comes running to me after seeing that .

There you go, running off on your own again theres blood on your leg!

Im fine, it doesnt hinder my movements . Wipe it gently after the fight is over .

I put the shield over my shoulder and exchange it for my Dual Crater .

Celia gets into a stance with her sword beside me .

The fight starts for real from here on out . Just keep on cutting .

Our ally soldiers reply with a resounding cheer from within the enemy lines, which in turn amplifies the madness .

Were going to end things right now .

Hmph .

I jump at a retreating enemy and swiftly cut him down from behind with my longsword .

I make another slash with my Dual Crater at an enemy who turns around quickly, dropping his head to the ground .

Youve done it now!

I deliver a front kick to the stomach of an enemy who comes at me from the side, and that was enough to make him spit out blood and render him immobile .

What a weak guy to die from just a kick .

Three more soldiers line up their short spears and charge at me .

To counter, I smash the face of one of the soldiers . This technique was doable only because my longsword has the same length as their short spears .

I continue by pulling back my extended sword and deflecting the thrust from the second soldier with the hilt, then sweeping across his unguarded stomach with my Dual Crater . The cut wasnt deep enough to completely bisect his body, but it made the enemy soldier collapse after spilling out his guts from the large gash .

For the last soldiers attack, I crouch down while turning my body to avoid getting hit .

I circle behind the enemy who stumbles a few steps forward, then utilize the centrifugal f
