Chapter 139: Kalosia’s Holy Land (9)
A few hours later, Rakuza returned to the holy land accompanied by several wagons filled with essential supplies and food.
“Welcome back!” The followers cheered loudly, their faces glowing with happiness. Their situation had gradually become desperate; clothes had grown filthy due to lack of proper washing, and food supplies had started running dangerously low.
In such circumstances, this delivery was nothing short of life-saving rain after a long drought.
“You’re back. Were there any troubles?” Ketal calmly asked Rakuza.
“Not particularly. We faced some interference, but managed to return without major issues. Although we paid quite a hefty price, it was well worth it,” Rakuza answered cheerfully.
“I see. That’s good news,” Ketal murmured quietly.
With the supplies issue resolved, they could now comfortably hold out until the encroaching darkness surrounding the holy land disappeared.
The dark mages seemed to realize this fact as well, and launched one final, desperate attack.
The faces of the holy knights turned pale with shock. Countless monsters appeared from beyond the plains, rushing toward them as though everything prior had merely been child’s play.
Rakuza shouted, his expression turning serious, “Everyone! Raise your swords! Pray to the great Kalosia! We shall emerge victorious!’
“Yes!” Everyone instinctively knew this would be the final stand. The knights roared vigorously, their voices echoing in unison. “For Kalosia!”
The holy knights collided fiercely against the surging wave of monsters. The monsters poured forth relentlessly, but the knights quickly rallied, working together to repel the assault.
