253 Chapter 25The hot wind blew by the backs of the Yurakks as they pushed forward with surging momentum ad they crushed the opposition in front of them with no mercy. It was scorching in the battlefield but the scattered limbs and bodies spread all over the place gave off a feeling of chill to anyone who had no experience in battles a chilling feeling. Cracked skulls, deformed helmets, broken weapons, dismembered limbs and dead bodies littered the battlefield but the orcs didn’t mind the obstacles on their path that were scattered all over the place as they charged forward.

Haguk and the Warg Cavalry finally joined the fray which made Varus participate in the fight since they were the ones that he was worried about. Wargs and their riders jumped on the humans from the rear as they tore apart their hastily established line to repel them. The Warg Cavalry easily dismembered the rear guards since most of their foes were committed to the frontline and are entangled with the Yurakks who were destroying them as well. The fall of the four people who were the next strongest of the groups was the last straw that broke the camel’s back as the Yurakks utterly pummeled the flanks of their foes and with the Warg Cavalry at the rear of their enemies, they are almost surrounded at all sides.

Khao’khen watch the battle unfold from a distance and he had the thoughts of joining the fray as well but he got rid of the thought as he was already content with the progress of the battle. After being forced down from the skies, Drae’ghanna stood beside him as she spectated the battle as she lost the interest in participating after seeing that the enemies are almost surrounded. Her attacking with her spells might even be detrimental to them since she might hit her allies with her attacks as she no longer had the vantage point of looking down at the targets.

After realizing that there were less than ten of the original members of the Blade Crows that were with him, Varus went ballistic as he sent one enemy after another flying away with his strikes as with each swing of his blade was filled with his full power as he no longer conserved his strength as he wanted to save every single member of his that he can. Each of his strikes was lethal enough to severely injure those that were on the receiving end of it and there was a huge possibility that it will outright kill them.

“Malik, prepare the scroll and bail us out!” he shouted as he dragged his wounded members towards the young mage who fumbled with the contents of his bag as he started searching for something.





“I can still fight, captain.” One of the Blade Crows who lost one of his arms said as he gritted his teeth trying to endure the pain that was assaulting his senses.

“Alright but you must stay close with Malik.” Varus replied as he repelled an orc that tried to get close to his members. They were surrounded from all sides with no possible way unless they try to force their way out in one direction which he didn’t want to happen since he already lost too many of his members already and after this battle his members would surely start to doubt his leadership.

“Captain, my current mana can only sustain a dozen people or so.” Malik replied as he started channeling his mana on the magic scroll that was on his hands. The magic scroll in his hands was their only means to get out of situations which was a certain death for them, it was a lifesaving item which also cost them a lot since it had a ridiculous price but who wouldn’t want a way to elude certain death.

Varus nodded his head in reply as he supported his remaining members in repelling the orcs who were charging towards them crazily. The magic scroll was indeed a powerful item which could teleport people away from where they are currently at but the distance and number of people depended on the mana that was channeled onto it after activation.

.....

The glow of the magic circle on the feet of Malik was soon noticed by all those who were around them and after seeing the member of the Blade Crows huddling together, they knew that the spell that was being activated was a way out or a certain spell that provides protection judging by the actions of the Blade Crows.

“Hey! How about us!?” the Ereian nobles and merchants screamed in unison as they shoved their way towards the inside of the magic circle that was glowing on the ground.

Malik felt the sudden increased of pressure from the spell as it started becoming unstable after more people squeezed in inside it. The spell was draining his mana crazily and it started showing signs of failing since his current mana was inadequate to sustain it after the sudden increased of people inside the magic circle.

Varus turned his gaze at those who squeezed inside the circle with anger, he swung his blade at one of their previous who was a soldier before being hired by their employers. “Kill them!” he shouted as he pounced onto the next one that was closest to him. The members of the Blade Crows heeded his order as they turned their weapons towards their previous allies since it is either they kill them or the spell fails and they all dies. The wealthy merchants and nobles noticed the strange actions of the Blade Crows and they hurriedly scurried away from within the circle.

“You can’t just abandon me after receiving the payment!” their employer shouted frantically as he hid behind one of his hired guards. He regretted giving the Blade Crows the renumeration of his request in advance since he was confident that they will fulfill his request because they are one of the most reputable mercenaries.

Varus just snorted in reply as he stepped inside the magic circle and he and his members disappeared from the battlefield. The sudden disappearance of the Blade Crows confused the orcs but they charged forward nonetheless as there were still enemies in front of them for them to kill.
