The maneuver quickly decimated the center of the monsters' army and fell down almost two-thirds of their number. "Take them all down! No mercy!" the Guidon Bearer yelled as he spun the guidon on his hand, which was covered in a glimmering green light. With every swing of his weapon, monsters in a line would experience being torn apart by his attacks, which were accompanied by gales of wind.

The Sandstorm Cavalry squished the monsters with their formation. Both the left and right flank attacks forced what remains of the monsters to be gathered together while the third group, which was the stinger, rode back and pummeled them once again.

"Captain Ashgar, watch your back!" a rider shouted as he shielded their Guidon Bearer with his body from the attack of an over seventeen feet monster. The corrupted ogre sent the rider flying along with his warhorse. Both the horse and the rider vomited blood as they were sent into the air. The corrupted ogre grunted in annoyance but continued on its path.

Huge monsters over fifteen feet came back from the group of monsters that sneaked away with the cover of the dune. There were more than fifty of them. The ground trembled with each step they take and their roars caught the attention of all the riders. The corrupted ogres rampaged through the ranks of the Sandstorm Cavalry delivering deadly blows with each swing of their enormous limbs. They grabbed both rider and its steed under them and hurled them towards their fellow riders.

"On me! Riders on me!" Captain Ashgar shouted as he calmed down his horse while waving the banner in his hands to rally his peers, who had their lines broken through by the towering monsters. The stinger group gathered together, but that was a huge mistake as the corrupted ogres made their way towards them with all their might. Their gathering became an excellent target for the charging monsters.

Horses and riders were sent flying away as the fallen ogres rammed into them. The smaller creatures also found their chance and pounced on the riders, who were trying their best to control their panicking steeds. A seven feet tall monster with a tusk jutting out its lower lip grabbed the head of Captain Ashgar's warhorse and brought it down to the ground with a mighty tug.

Captain Ashgar jumped off his horse, that was pulled down by the monster. He raised his weapon above his head and pounced On the monster that took down his steed. With all his might, he struck down the monster. Bringing his weapon in a downward strike and pierced through the torso of the corrupted orc. His weapon went through the chest of the monster and went out of its back, and along was the banner that was fully drenched in the blood of numerous monsters.

The Guidon Bearer survived, but his steed wasn't as lucky as him, which was torn to pieces by the monsters that flocked towards it. Captain Ashgar gritted his teeth in anger and roared towards the sky. Gales of winds started surrounding him, which shredded to pieces all monsters that pounced on him.

Captain Ashgar spun the guidon on his hand and charged towards the nearest towering monster that he saw. His eyes were burning with anger as he swung his weapon against the foot of the monster and tore it away from its body. The unlucky ogre fell backwards as it lost balance after the attack of the human below him tore away his left foot.

Sprinting towards the face of the monster that was on his back, Captain Ashgar brought forward his weapon and pummeled the head of the monster with his weapon. Blood, flesh, shattered bones and a white, gooey substance rained down on Captain Ashgar as he shattered the head of the enormous monster.

"No mercy! Rah!!!" he shouted, then charged towards the next corrupted ogre while ignoring the smaller once that was flocking towards him. The vicious gale that surrounded him tore apart any of the monsters that were foolish enough to come close to him. Like a runaway truck, he collided with his next victim and brought it down. With the wind blades dancing around him, he shredded the corrupted ogre into small pieces of flesh and even bones weren't able to withstand his assault.

Captain Ashgar was like a meat grinder set loose upon the battlefield. Wherever he went, blood and flesh would rain down as he shred to pieces the monsters that were in his path.

"Isma! Menna! You're free to unleash your abilities!" Commander Ishaq shouted towards his two Adjutants. Adjutant Isma and Menna stared at each other and they broke into happy smiles. "Ha! Finally! I can let loose!" First Adjutant Menna shouted as he crossed his two blades in front of him while channeling his powers into his arms.

"Clear out! Field of Annihilation!" Commander Ishaq warned his troops as his two Adjutants were preparing to unleash their powers upon the monsters. The riders all stared in the direction of their commander before glancing towards the two Adjutants who were preparing their attacks.

"Shit! Here we go again."

"Get your asses out!"

"Let's go!"

"Move! Move! Move!"

"Let's get outta here!"

"Field of Annihilation!"

"Field of Annihilation is called!"

"Clear out!"

The riders shouted to warn their peers as they guided their steeds to move away from the battlefield. It wasn't only their commander who is able to deliver a very powerful attack against their enemies. The two Adjutants of the Sandstorm Cavalry are also in possession of abilities that could deal a massive amount of destruction upon the battlefield which doesn't discriminate between friend or foe.

"Heh! Like you could compete against me!" second Adjutant Isma grinned and impaled his enormous sword into the sands while gathering all his powers onto his sword. "Captain Ashgar! Field of Annihilation is called! Prepare yourself!" Adjutant Menna shouted towards the Guidon Bearer, who was still busy massacring the enormous monsters. It was he who fell down most of the towering monsters.

"Don't mind me! Unleash it!" Captain Ashgar shouted in answer as he tore apart another corrupted ogre into a rain of flesh and blood. A dim golden light started to surround him, which took the form of a ball with him in the center.

"There is nothing that I can't cut. With the sharpness of my blades, cut everything and anything. Shred them all to pieces. Unleash the wrath of a blade master. Storm of a Thousand Blades!" Adjutant Menna muttered and like an arrow released from a bow, he stormed forward in a blink of an eye. Everything and anything on his path was cut to fine pieces, like the grains of sand in the Burning Sands. His path of destruction was an almost thousand meter long and a fifty meters wide of nothingness. Friend or foe, alive or not, nothing remained.

A clearing was created along the path that he took, starting from where he came from until where he now stood at. Adjutant Menna was panting heavily and went down on one knee as that move of his sapped him out of almost all his strength. Using his two swords as crutches, he raised his head and glanced towards his fellow Adjutant who was still preparing his attack.

"From dust we are made and to dust we shall return. The passage of time shall turn everything to dust. Living or not, all shall be turned to dust. Dust you are and dust I am. Turn everything to dust. Ground Desolation!" Adjutant Isma muttered as the grain of sands started turning a shade of darker brown, starting from where his huge sword was at. Expanding outwards in a circle, the grain of sands changed color. The monsters that were nearer to where his ability was released started to crumble to pieces, starting from their legs, then upwards. They crumbled to fine pieces of dust and became part of the Burning Sands.

Life ebbed away from the monsters as they were turned to dust. The corpses, weapons, armors and other things that weren't sand were turned to dust. Nothing was left behind except for the fine pieces of dust that mixed up with the scorching sands.

"No matter how many times I witness it, it still gives me chills."

"Sheesh... Talk about real desolation."

"May Faerush have mercy on the souls of our comrades."

Murmurs broke out among the Sandstorm Cavalry as they watched from far away the disaster that was happening. They all had fearful looks on their faces while witnessing yet again the Field of Doom.

Captain Ashgar stood his ground as the attack of Adjutant Isma which turned everything to dust. "Golden light that repulses the dark. Light that chases away the darkness of the world. Shine upon me your power and grant me your power. Repel everything that harms your servant. Holy Barrier." Captain Ashgar muttered as the golden light that shrouded him from all directions became even more intense and kept him safe from the effects of Adjutant Isma's attack.

It literally is a Field of Annihilation. The monsters were either cut to fine pieces by Adjutant Menna or turned to dust by Adjutant Isma. Only Captain Ashgar was the sole survivor who was left standing in the middle of the Field of Annihilation.
