A day passed since the reinforcements arrived and they began working to deal with the urgent things. While they were working, they received a signal from their scouts stationed near the frontline.

"The barrier has been breached! The Glerian Kingdom's forces are charging!" This message was distributed to all forces of the Sinyalian Kingdom. Nearly all the forces charged out in the direction of the Glerian Kingdom's forces.

Roman and his forces moved out as well. They were actually very quick to react as Roman had already given out orders on the protocol that they must follow in case the enemy breached the defense lines.

His forces followed that protocol since it was still fresh in their minds. Thus, their movements were rather swift and optimized. This allowed the entire force to get ready very quickly and charge towards the enemy.

Roman and his forces were wearing elite armor that could resist multiple strikes from opponents of the same rank as well. This armor absorbed their Ardor and protected them. Its base defense was pretty good, but the main highlight of this armor was that it could protect its user from Ardor attacks.

While Roman's forces were moving out, Sophie and Alby's forces were awake as well. They decided to increase their production to assist their comrades who were going to fight on the frontlines soon enough.

At this moment, Sophie's trap activated, and the Glerian Kingdom's soldiers were struck with a dense lightning web that passed through their legs. Since they were immobilized, it gave the Sinyalian Kingdom's forces time to gather.

Once they had gathered, they charged at the Glerian Kingdom's forces and threw multiple long-ranged attacks at them. The archers of the Sinyalian Kingdom were the main highlights of this battle.

These archers launched their arrows horizontally. The arrows moved with such speed that they passed through the warrior's bodies. A single arrow would pass through three warriors' bodies. If their aim was good, then they could easily take the life of two warriors with a single arrow.

Now, there were hundreds of archers with this kind of skill in the Sinyalian Kingdom's forces. Thus, the Glerian Kingdom's army was facing disastrous losses with each passing second.

The rear army of the Glerian Kingdom saw what happened to the vanguard. The commanders of the rear guard immediately gave the order to retreat to their camp. Roman and his forces allowed this rearguard to retreat.

It wasn't that he was inactive or lazy in pursuing them. He just felt that giving the vanguard the path of retreat would bring them greater advantages. If Roman and his forces had followed the rear guard, it would mean that the path to retreat was also not safe for the vanguard.

The vanguard would then try their best to fight back against the attacks of the Sinyalian Kingdom's forces. They would counter-attack to create an opportunity for a break! It wasn't as easy as it sounded but at the least, they would be trying to survive.

However, since Roman's forces weren't following the rear guard and left the path to retreat open, the Glerian Kingdom's forces were now getting confused about whether they should stay and fight or try to retreat.

This confusion made a great difference at this point on the battlefield. Their morale dropped to low points, and they were hardly trying to resist the attacks of the Sinyalian Kingdom's forces.

Meanwhile, Noah's group heard of this news. They were surprised that the Sinyalian Kingdom's forces had prepared such a trap for the Glerian Kingdom's forces. Even their group would have suffered great damages if they fell for it.

"…" While the members of his group were terrified when they heard about these traps and the attacks that followed, Noah was thinking of something else entirely. He recalled the mission assigned to him by Azaroth.

He had to increase his prestige among the soldiers of the Glerian Kingdom to a high level. It had to reach a point where if he ever ordered those soldiers, their first instinct would be to obey his order rather than deny him.

This was the ideal chance to do so. He had no choice but to face the danger and save the men, no matter how many they were. Nobody would focus on the number of soldiers he had saved. Everyone would be more focused that Noah arrived with his forces to save these soldiers while putting his life on the line.

This would indeed be a challenge for him and his group. A smile appeared on his face as he stood up and pulled out his sword, "Get on your horses! We are leaving now! We have some comrades to save!"

Many of Noah's subordinates were shocked to hear that statement, except a single man. This man was none other than William. He remained indifferent to the danger and was ready to fight with all his strength. The spear in his hand trembled a bit but he held it tightly and followed Noah immediately.

Noah's subordinates were shocked to see William following Noah just like that. William asked no questions and was ready to follow Noah despite their destination swarming with enemies. It showed just how loyal and brave he was.

The other men wanted to show that they were loyal and brave as well. Thus, they immediately stood up while pulling their weapons from their sheaths and followed Noah. Noah didn't even turn around to check who was following him.

He gave off an attitude that he was ready to go alone and fight for these comrades. This action instilled a sense of heroism within all his subordinates who stood up and followed him to battle against the Sinyalian Kingdom's forces.

After some time, they reached the location. And now, out of 10,000 soldiers in the Glerian Kingdom's vanguard soldiers, only 900 or so had survived. The rest had been killed with an arrow piercing their bodies.

These 900 soldiers had survived because they had managed to block these arrows by using their respective elements. Some utilized the Earth Element while some warriors utilized the water element to block these arrows.

The Sinyalian Kingdom's forces noticed what these soldiers were doing. They were merely stalling by defending like this. They had no chance of fighting back and were merely trying their best to survive a second longer.

"You don't even number in thousands anymore. You should either surrender or just die. There is no point in defending. The situation is completely hopeless for you." A general of the Sinyalian Kingdom spoke out.

"No! We won't give up!" The soldiers of the Glerian Kingdom chorused out. They weren't ready to put down their defenses yet. They had already gone past their limits to maintain their current defenses, but the intensity was weakening with each passing second.

Another commander of the Sinyalian Kingdom sneered and spoke, "What a bunch of idiots you are. We will just stop attacking you and watch as you waste your Ardor by maintaining this defense. And if you stop for even a second, you won't have a chance to regret it. In the next moment, you will be impaled by an arrow going through your heart. Once again, we give you an option to surrender."

"NO!" The survivors of the Glerian Kingdom's vanguard shouted out with a determined tone. They were ready to risk their lives for the Glerian Kingdom and weren't going to betray it for even a second.

At that time, a Sinyalian Kingdom commander locked his focus on a relatively young soldier from the Glerian Kingdom's vanguard. This soldier had been injured by many strikes and the blood was leaking from all over his body. The soldier should have died after losing so much blood. However, he managed to survive till now.

"Why do you continue resisting? You should know that you have no path left for survival. You should accept your fate and surrender. You can at the least save your life then," The commander spoke to the young soldier rather softly.

At those words, the soldiers of the Glerian Kingdom began to chuckle. Roman and his forces noticed that the enemy was actually laughing in this situation. They wondered if they had all lost their minds or something.

"…It is because we have a miracle," The young soldier responded to the commander. The Sinyalian Kingdom's commander was a little surprised to hear this response.

"What miracle? Do you actually believe that someone will come and save you from this situation?! Haha! How naïve! I also want to see just who is foolish enough to come and save you at this moment!"

In the very next second, a huge explosion occurred behind the location where the Glerian Kingdom's soldiers were trapped. There was a silver slash over the Lightning Net Array, and the entire array was sliced apart.

The Glerian Kingdom's trapped soldiers were now free. The youthful soldier who had just responded to the commander added, "And here it is.. The miracle I was talking about. The Heretical Paladins!"
