Robin and her forces waited under the shadows of the trees. The battering rams were modified, the ram itself was now gone. Leaving only the wheels and the roofing. A couple of the said rams at the forefront had their roofs covered with the woodland foliage laying in wait, ready for the imminent battle. The 1200 humans nervously waited for the signal. And the instant the walls vibrated, and the bells rung. They held their breaths. Afraid of losing their cover.
Robin's hand itched as she was aware of the diversion force's risks.
"Come on, come on!"
Minutes later, the numerous Elves who stood guard around the gate house thinned. The plan had succeeded, the pressure on this front lessened. She endured, waiting another minute. Waiting for the Elves who had left, to be far enough away from the front.
"Clam. Gary. Now!"
The knights clad in full plate armour pushed the empty rams forward and up the slope. The rams themselves now lighter than before, due to missing the actual ram itself. Swiftly approached the castle gates.
More bells rung, as the Elves started shouting and screaming. Arrow fire shortly after started to pelt the humans. The heavy and dense metal protected the humans from any glancing blows, but direct impacts still manage to pierce.
Robin who was in [Disappear] instantly fired [All in One] the moment she was close enough. The 13 astral projectiles shot out from above her. Streaming with stardust and slamming into the wooden gates. Instead of the usual expected miniature proximity blasts. The arrows kept their forms and continued spinning with great velocity.
Robin was quick to fire another volley which quickly imbedded itself into the already 13 projectiles.
Noticing the arrow fire now switching targets from the mass of humans to the single little girl. Clam and Gary ran forward clad in their armour and shields, protecting her.
The men grabbed her by the waist and instantly charged back into the cover of the battering rams. By now, there was a line of empty rams that created a safe zone. A single path where the arrows couldn't fully penetrate through.
The gate, unable to withsand the 26 projectiles erupted. The splinters of wood flew inwards, piercing many of the defenders. Instantly culling their lives.
The rams were now under the gate house. Passing through as rocks and stones were dropped down from above.
Clam, Gary, Viscounts Timson and Sam knowingly shouted their war cries and charged forward as their men eager to protect their lords also began to swarm the gate house.
"FOR KINGDOM AND FOR GLORY! CHARRGE!"
The moment Robin saw her opportunity, she entered stealth and began to decimate the field. She didn't care about regulating her skills. Her mana was currently overwhelming her, her heart racing as if there was too much blood for it to pump. So she fired again and again upon the walls, the ramparts and the men who charged towards her.
[ALL IN ONE] [ALL IN ONE] [ALL IN ONE]!
To the soldiers under her command, The girl seemed like she was dancing through the battle field. Vaulting into a side vault, into another vault.
The Elves were screaming and shouting. Trying their best to overwhelm her. However, her empowered projectiles would penetrate their armours, their metals and torsos, before flying through their backsides and killing another.
As her heart continued to rage and rage, the adrenaline bottomed out. Robin fell to her knees and fainted. Blood flowing out of both nostrils. Clam and Gary who were her personal guards for this front immediately ran out, covering her small body with their large tower shields. Taking the shots that went through the gaps with their own limbs.
When the knights saw their mentors under such fire. Half of the men scrambled over to create their own shield wall, whilst the other half charged themselves up the ramparts to slaughter them with great fervour.
Robin was their battle-angel. And they'll be damned to allow some pointy-ears to bully her like this!
kophzi TBH, the chapter titles are more for me than for the readership.
For me, so I can have checkpoints whenever I need to backpedal and recheck certain descriptions/information etc
I don't really want to write chapter titles, because they may contain spoilers.
