Chapter 428 - Demonic Breach

"Demons are attacking!" A Guard shouted from the top of his lungs, which revealed the severity of this situation!

King Michael heard that shout, that alarm and in one wicked way that call for help! As, the Guards never call unless the situation becomes hard to handle!

In other words, there are a hell load of Demons coming for Gaster Kingdom!

The semi-echoing shouts spread like a disease amongst the Domain, one Guard picked up the alarm and shouted too in order to get everyone ready.

King Michael first set his feet at a blaze and shouted at a Guard, "Get the Fire Blasters!" Before he made his way towards the sky, to get a better point of view on how many Demons are on their way.

Yet he can't take much time to look around, these Demons can run on their fours twice as fast as any Ignite.

It didn't take long for him to realize that the Kingdom is in a sour situation, the screaming and running Demons are far too big in Numbers, his guess is that they stand over 150 although he likes to believe that the numbers are small, maybe tricking himself towards motivation will aid in this battle!

Each of the 205 Guards here in Gaster Kingdom are armed to the teeth, but most importantly all of them are equipped with a bow just in case of a Demonic invasion such as this one. It isn't the wisest to face a Demon in close combat.

Arrows fluttered towards the sky, pushing against air as they went up and reflected the midday sun's rays as they went down head first against the Demons!

Shouts increased as the 30 or so Arrows landed against flesh and bone, the Demons aren't obviously fans of the weird sharp sticks that fly but since one Arrow is usually not enough to kill a Demon, the vast majority who survived this first attack are even more pissed and crazed if you believe that possible coming from a Demon!

KIng Michael finally got close to the battle field, it took him seconds that felt like hours. He could even hear the fire beneath his feet rage across the air as he gave a maximum scale to it, couldn't even open his eyes until he slowed down.

Knowing how fast they are, knowing how dangerous this situation can become in a break of a second, he blew a 12 foot wide Fireball, with a 6 foot wide tail following it.

Obviously not savvy Stamina-wise, it torched over 20 spines, before the large Fireball made its way through flesh and bone melting these wicked beings all the way down to the knees.

The heat behind this Fireball is scaled all the way up, it has no intent to spare anything.

Since the Fireball has a six foot long tail behind, and considering the tremendous heat, the Fireball did not stop contributing after it met the Ground.

It spread across the ground, like a terribly misshaped but yet circular flour dough that accidentally falls to the ground.

This dough like Fire took 15 or so more Demons victim, or more like took their knees victim as it was only 2 feet tall although it spread 17 feet across!!

Their howls increased, as the Demonic bodies who fell to the ground with their limbs missing, forced unscaved Demons to trip over them which caused a minor massacre. One Demon clawing the other to death as they piled 15 feet high one over another.

He shot another Fireball of the same size, highly effective although he instantly felt dizzy due to all the Stamina these Fireballs are consuming.

This one too scorched through 40 or so Demons, and as he noticed the first pile up he caused, he flew 20 feet closer and blew Fire through his mouth, which stretched over 15 feet long and torched over 20 Demonic bodies in less than 10 seconds.

He turned around and saw that many Demons have ran past him. Although his Fireballs effective, the time he needs to shoot every enemy down compared to the time these Demons need to reach the Kingdom has an awful Gap in between.

Out of a sudden Hundreds of Arrows shower against the Demons, taking out enemy after enemy through the left wing of this large group.

This necessarily points out towards the glorious fact that most of the Platoon have dashed their way across the Kingdom, have climbed over the walls and are contributing against this attack.

Unlike the first, second and even third Arrow ranged attack, this one actually landed a bloody blow!

Literally!

The King could see blood splatter across the sky, as several Arrows hit each Demon which made death almost the only option for each enemy afflicted by this Iron on a stick!

The death rate inflicted upon these foul Demons by the Archers has gone well above 40 now, it is good enough to turn the tides if they had a few more seconds to continue with this attack.

The majority of the surviving Demons are only 15-40 feet away from the Walls, in other words they just need another few seconds to breach through the walls and massacre everything in sight.

Michael's vision became blurry, but he could see Demons emerging from the sea right where the Spearfishermen and normal Fishermen are at, luckily the numbers there are not overwhelming.

With two of the evolved to their aid it is only a matter of time until the Spearfishermen lend a hand against the battle of the main pile of Demons coming towards the main gates!

being over a hundred feet away from the walls himself, King Michael has no option to work fast since Eric and Mogranius aren't anywhere to be seen yet.

Unable to think straight, he flew downwards until he was actually a feet or two above the enemy's shoulders.

Bad idea at best, but it comes along with a suicidal strategy!

He blew a horrendous size of Fire underneath his feet, which blew him across the air fast enough that he again can't keep his eyes open.

The strategic part of this move however, is the fact that the Fire beneath his feet stretches a meter long!!

So as he is soaring over their shoulders, he keeps burning everything in sight... or in front of him at least.

This will reduce the overall Demonic count and ease the Burden of the Archers.

As a Guard saw the King fly across the Demons in horribly fast speeds, he shouted as much as he could. "Cease Fire!"

The point behind his howl of command is to not hit the King, that would be bad on so many Levels!

They want the King safe, but the extra seconds they wasted here to put in contribution in this horrible battle is nothing but a big mistake.

The Demons reached the walls, started clawing their way up, chipping off pieces of the stone wall as tens of them climbed their way up.

Opening his eyes, having it hard to take this situation in, the King shouted with all his force. "No!!!"

The King dropped near the main gate, blew several Fireballs against the Demons in front of him, to buy himself some time with Fireballs stretching 4-6 feet wide.

Seeing his vision becoming a tad blurry, he gave a glance to his left and blew a 7 foot wide Fireball against the Demons climbing the walls and shot 4 or so down. 

That's where a little thought took over his attention mid battle, "These are a lot more than 150 Demons."

He turned his gaze towards the right, saw a Guard being dragged down from the walls by a single swipe thrown by one of these foul beings.

That Guard, fell to the ground and started shouting as much as he could while several Demons started to further claw through his flesh and Armour.

The King tried to shoot the Demons who have already started climbing thes 10 meter tall walls, that required blowing bigger buzzling Fireballs.

Shooting a couple down, he was forced to fly up as these wicked beings started surrounding him.

He saw several Guards getting clawed across the chest, some against the head and some actually got their head ripped off giving no chance of survival whatsoever.

This bloody battle has gotten far out of hand, regardless of the training that the Guards got these past few days as they shot small portions of Demons down, today they just don't have enough time to not face any losses.

This battle isn't lost, as a Zamerian middle aged Guard lady shouted. "Banish these Demons!" And she swung so hard that she sliced a Demon's arm off, then went for the head, slicing its neck half way through.

She bashed her Sword against the dead Demon's chest after, bashed it against the wall's support and kicked it against the other side of the walls as she pulled her Iron Sword back out.

Seconds after, King Michael saw that a few Demons are actually running away from the Kingdom, Several Guards shouting from the top of their lungs as they surrounded one lady. "Protect Toto!!"
