In a far of the city of the Arcana kingdom.
Flames were raging through the night.
Stalls that were selling food were now just pure ashes with the streets filled with burned bodies.
The place once known as Seranan holding a population of over a thousand people was no more with crumpled buildings and flames engulfing the whole city.
Except for one single place.
In the far end back of the walls was a whole castle built on a hill. The flames haven´t reached these plays...
yet.
*Bouhm!
In a room with over thirty people carrying swords and staff looked at the direction that the sound came from.
*Bouhm!
Splinters of wood flew from a massive wooden door that glowed ever slightly that indicated there was a strong barrier support the durability of the door.
*Bouhm!
"City Lord! The door wouldn´t last for long!" A soldier yelled in panic towards the person far in the back. Fear was written all over this face.
The man had long brown hair that went until a bit lower than his shoulder and a staff in this hand, frowned upon the panicked soldier.
"I don´t need you to tell the obvious. I have already called for reinforcement to come, so shut your trap and do the job that you are paid for." Though the city lord has shown no emotions to this face which made him look calm to others, inside of him he was already sweating bullets.
*Bouhm!
`The barrier will not hold...´ He Tighted his grip on the communications on this hand before putting it back in this pocket.
`If I panic now in front of my subordinates they will lose quicker hope that the barrier-breaking. I just have to hold out until he comes.´
"Don´t stand and watch only! Knights in the front and caster in the back! Show them what you learned in all the years of service! We just need to hold on for a few minutes for reinforcements to come!"
Hearing the orders that the city lord had to give them, they finally managed to get a hold of themself and follow the orders.
`We still got a chance, everyone one here is one of the elites that I had nurtured myself these whole years. We just need to hold a bit until he comes!´
With hope in his eyes, he started giving orders to the elite unit.
And soon enough the glow in the door vanished.
*Baahm!
The door was ripped open and a huge wooden ram fly through the front of the room.
*Bttchch!
None of the people inside paid attention to the huge ram sliding through the floor. They knew that there was something far more dangerous beyond this door.
The door that was now open had pure gray smoke, thus making the people even more nervous.
They stared at the gray smoke with bloodshot eyes, afraid to miss what was about to come. They knew that their current silence was the calm before the storm.
And soon enough sellouts started to show inside the smoke.
"Magic casters! Prepare your spells!" The city lord's voice was like thunder hitting every magic caster's ears and they reflect started to chant and wave their spells.
And as soon they started, multiple figures came running towards them outside the gray smoke.
`Those are!´
The city lord paled when he saw who this enemy was.
"For the arcane and arcana! We hold for our kingdom! Fire!"
Upon his command, spears and missiles of mana with some elemental spells were flown towards their enemy.
The figures coming out of smoke had one sword to their arms and the same phoenix helmet.
Everyone single one of them had an aura of bloodthirst and to the eyes of the knights, their crimson armor and helmet made them look more of a demon.
"[Fire Emprace]"
Three voices sounded behind the gray smoke, and soon enough flames slide like snakes towards the phoenix helmet people and forming a burning shield around them faster than the incoming spells.
*Bahm! Thuad! Buhm!
The spells of the many magic caster soon met their target, with the explosive spell raising smoke at the area.
"We got them!"
"There is no way they survived that!"
Many of the magic casters who cast a smile celebrated imminently upon seeing their enemy turn into dust.
All except one.
"You fools! Don´t stop casting! They are still-" Before the city lord could finish his sentence, a bright red light came out of the smoke.
And before the knights knew it, the unharmed phoenix helmet people dashed with a speed far higher than they could follow.
"Ah..." A knight soldier tried to cry out of surprise.
And in the next moment, he was cut in half together with this enchanted armor.
And this didn´t happend only to this knight.
The phoenix helmet people's swords were like scythes harvesting to where knights were the wheat.
Though they had more numbers, their enemies were far faster.
There praised armor that well-known enchanters made in the city were now weighing their movements down.
"C-City Lord! What´re your orders!"
Seeing the knights dying so fast made them realized that death was slowly but surely crippling towards them, with no place to escape from it.
The city lord instead looked surprised.
`I supplied those knights with the best I could find but their armor is nothing that liability. Though the enemy is stronger than them, their swords are the more terrifying.´
"It doesn´t matter, cast your spells towards the enemy!" The city lord commanded.
"But..." many of the casters had a conflicted look on themselves upon that command.
You order us to shoot our meat shield?
Seeing their expression, the city lord couldn´t help but curse at them.
"If we don´t kill them everyone will die here! Do it! It´s an order!"
With shaking hands, the caster started to bombard their enemies together with their knights.
"W-What is going!?"
"City Lord! Why..."
"Traitorous Pig!"
Many knights fell into deep despair upon witnessing their allies as much as their enemies killing them with no hind of remorse.
With the magic caster behind the smoke casting protective spells upon the phoenix helmet warriors the result was a few seconds of delay before a total inhalation of all magic casters and knights.
Few seconds were needed for the city lord to finish this spell.
"Earth's protector! Heed my call and serve to protect! [Earth Guardian]!"
Two three-meter radius of the magic circle appeared in front of the city lord.
And emerging from the magic circle with a brown light, were two five-meter-tall earth golems looking down their enemies.
"Hahaha! Behold my tier four magic! [Earth Guardian]! Unlike the other nobles, I earned my spot to becoming the city lord! Earth guardians! Go and kill thos-"
Without being able to finish, the three magic casters that were hidden in the smoke before slowly appeared with their eyes glowing.
Seeing them the city lord mouth open wide.
`Three Magic casters of Mana Vision!?´
"[Flaming Rings]"
In each caster
Two rings of flame appeared and were shortly shot towards the earth guardians' limps.
"Ghhh..." The earth guardians tried to move their limbs but the fire rings in their hands not only slowly made their limbs crack, but they kept them in place.
With the two giants now bound, every phoenix helmet warrior dashed towards the city lord, full of bloodthirst.
"Oh no! [Earth Spi-"
Unfortunately, those who don´t possess mana vision are hugely disadvantages.
"Gah...Impossible...my earth guardians..." With three swords pierced in this chest, the city lord caught up lord while reaching this hand towards the slowly crumpling earth guardians.
"Protect me..."
With the light in this fading away, the body fell lifeless to the ground.
"These were the final ones. We now fully conquered the city of Seranan." One of the warriors reported towards the three spell casters.
"Good. Tell me now, how were the new weapons performance?" The magic caster pointed with this staff on this sword.
"Their performance was better than our last patch of weapons. Cutting others felt much easier than before and the shock that I felt was less than usual from the enemy's magic." The phoenix helmet warrior said with a satisfied tone.
"I see...though, of a low tier, the new runes are indeed useful." Another magic caster mumbled to himself.
"Great, we will have to tell them to give us more of those. But for now, let´s go to the treasury and-"
*Spark
Hearing the small sound of a spark behind them, everyone turned around with the magic caster already casting their spells.
With the sparks turning ever stronger, a massive amount of mana appeared out of blue slowly forming a portal.
Coming out of the portal, was a man wearing robes and with these gauntlets carrying ahead in his hands.
"This!" Looking at who appeared their mood of before turned blank and a feeling of disbelieving overcame them.
"Isn´t that the head of the general leading the other battlefield!?"
Recognizing who heads were they all soon confirmed who the man was.
"It´s the Magus of the tower!"
"Quick! Cast your spells!"
"Charge!"
They didn´t even waste a second to start their spells and charge.
But without even realizing it, the man put this hands behind this back, and spikes of earth appeared below everyone, impaling them without even realizing it.
"Too late huh..." Saying that the map turned around and was about to leave through the portal again before he realized something.
"Hmm...what´s that?"
Turning this gaze towards one of the warrior's swords, it flew in front of him.
"Runes? They don´t seem from the Crafbinder kid too..."
Gazing towards the sword out of curiosity.
The hear suddenly rose in the room and everybody of the phoenix warriors was engulfed in flames.
The flames of all the bodies moved towards one location until it turned into a massive flame resembling a bird.
"Damn bird, it's finally out.."
"Kiaghhh!"
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
