Chapter 236 236 War Against The Knights 4

"That is the first idea you have given that made sense since I met you, we should go with that, when are we leaving," said Edith.

"We are not in a rush, slow down..." Vincent said immediately.

"Don't be scared, you are going with an army of hundred men, don't be scared" Aurora said and pat his shoulder.

"I'm not scared, why would I be scared" Vincent shouted immediately.

Apart from the beasts Draco had an army of hundred humans made of knights and mages, they had been gathered some time ago and began training under Draco's command.

The army didn't join the beasts to attack, they were the finishing party who would go after the whole ruckus is over and most of the knights are dead.

Draco wasn't in control of the beasts, the black crystal was doing the work Draco was just a vessel, more than 100 wolves waited behind so they could transport the soldiers to the academy and Draco's personal warriors to the city.

Vaan left the group and walked towards the army sitting leisurely on the ground, they were waiting for the order to move but it seems their leader had other plans, all of them were shocked at how Draco was able to infect and control beasts.

Most of them were scared but there was nothing they could do about it.

Most of the soldiers they put together were given to them by Xethen Empire, the empire wants Avalon gone and they would do anything it takes to watch that happen.

"We're moving out soon..." Vaan announced and all of them quickly stood up and began to prepare.

"We're leaving now" Draco spoke behind them.

Edith, Aurora, Ian, Vincent, and Vaan were Draco's personal warriors, though he doesn't need their protection, he needs them for other important missions.

"Ian had a very good idea," Edith spoke to Draco.

"Ian had an idea...Ian, you had an idea?" Draco asked Ian himself.

"Yes," Ian said with a smile on his face.

"Okay, what's the idea?" Draco turned back to Edith.

"Ian suggested that instead of us going, Vincent and the army should go, then he can open a portal for us to use," Edith said.

"That's good, can you do that Vincent?" Draco asked him.

"Yes master,"

"Okay, then you should move out now, try not to lose an arm," Draco said as he walked back to where he was seated.

Ian burst into laughter along with the others, Draco was referring to the incident that happened back at the knight's survival camp where Authur almost killed Vincent.

Vincent shrugged his shoulder and walked towards the army while the laughter died down.

'It seems we have an uninvited guest heading here, we don't have to go looking anymore' the black crystal spoke to Draco.

'You mean, he's coming towards us now?'

'Yes, I can sense him getting closer every passing second, I'm moving the army now... proceed with the plan'

'Yes master' Draco obeyed without complaint.

All the men were waiting completely ready to March towards Avalon to finish the job and bring Avalon knight academy to its knees, even though Xethen wouldn't be able to attack Avalon now, it was still a start.

The ruler and king of Xethen thought he was using Draco to destroy Avalon, but Draco was only going with the plan because he had something he needed to get from Avalon which was the scrolls.

The last group of beasts which was the infected wolves stood there totally unfazed, waiting for orders.

"We're riding the wolves over there, let's go" Vincent announced as he walked in front of the large group of men. All of them followed Vincent as he walked toward the wolves.

They were slightly afraid of the wolves but Vincent walked towards the one in front without a hint of fear and climbed on the wolf, the other followed his actions and did exactly what he did.

"How am I going to hold on" a swordsman complained as he climbed on the wolves.

"Hold the ears" another swordsman close to him spoke.

"Huh! won't it get angry and attack me, wolves are easily pissed you know," the man said.

"These are being controlled, even if you stab the wolves, they'll just heal back so holding their ears doesn't piss them off"

"How did a human obtain a power like this, to be able to control beasts and make them stronger than they are, strong enough to have healing abilities" the man muttered.

"Don't say that out loud, do you have a death wish"

"Aren't you afraid, what if he decides to go after our Empire" the man whispered.

"What would he gain by going after our Empire, he's working for Xethen, if he wants to attack our Empire he would have done that when his royal Highness contacted him don't you think" the other man whispered back.

"You are right, but still I don't know what he would gain by attacking Avalon, he obviously needs something from Avalon and he couldn't get it alone that's why he needed his royal Highness's help"

"Even if there is something he needs, do you think after attacking Avalon he would attack Xethen, it's impossible, half or almost all his beast army is gone, Xethen is the second strongest kingdom in the world"

"You are right, and after this is destroyed our kingdom would take a step forward to seize world power and this man would still be under his royal Highness"

The wolves started to move forward slowly and all the humans held on tightly, immediately the wolves picked up the pace, the wolves didn't care about the humans riding them so they ran recklessly.

The remaining wolves followed them making the group quite large.

'Okay, what's the plan, we go there and kill all of them right?'

'Yes, that's exactly the plan' Ray mumbled.

Silver ran at top speed towards Draco, Kaan could sense the black crystal so he knew exactly where the group was and that was where they were heading.

After a while, Ray stopped Silver so they could take a quick break, even though he wasn't the one running he was getting slightly dizzy from the constant running.

'Why are you stopping?' Kaan asked.

'To take a quick break, Silver needs to rest and I also need some rest, morning is almost here' Ray mumbled.

The sky was slowly getting bright meaning they had spent all night fighting, Ray still didn't know the situation the knights are in because he left a while ago.

The five speartooth were still alive when he left, maybe the senior knights would be able to take care of them.

'What do you need a break for, we are almost there' Kaan said.

'Kaan...you know I need your powers right, would you help me?' Ray asked.

'Why are you asking me that now? I also want my master to die and for that I would gladly help you' Kaan said.

'I just wanted to know if you are on my side, you may just be leading me there so I would be taken by your master then he would use his powers to break the seal and you would take over my body'

'That Is also a valid choice, but the problem with that plan is that my master would kill me as soon as he senses me in your body'

'What did you do to your master that he locked you up for so long?'

'I'll tell you about that later after we succeed, and your wolf is nice, where did you find him'

'I found him when he was little...what if we don't succeed, what if we both end up dying' Ray said.

'We only have a 5% chance of dying and that is... multiple targets, wolves along with humans' Kaan said.

"Wolves with humans, what does that mean" Ray muttered as he mounted on sliver.

'Take your wolf back, avoid them... fighting them would only weaken us' Kaan said.

'How would we avoid them?'

'Teleportation, use the spear to avoid them, how were you able to go this far if you can't think of a plan in time of danger'
