Chapter 58 - Takashi’s Silent Entrance
Atlas dashed through Soren’s soldiers as they attacked from every direction. He sidestepped, blocking with his spear, redirecting their attacks with swift, fluid movements, and drove his blade deep into one soldier’s chest. Another enemy lunged at him from behind, but a chain blade suddenly whipped out, piercing cleanly through the attacker’s skull.
Blood splattered across Atlas’s arm. His pulse thundered, adrenaline surging in this brutal, life-or-death battle.
He glanced to his side as Kurogasa joined him. "My Lord, I’m here."
In a blur, Kurogasa split into five duplicates, engaging enemies from multiple angles, fending off strikes to keep Atlas’s path clear.
Without hesitation, Atlas pressed forward, heading straight for the fortress, where Raze fought fiercely, his massive fists hammering against the thick walls as he attempted to break through.
Two soldiers charged at Atlas, attempting to block his path. Suddenly, thick vines burst from the ground, wrapping around their limbs and dragging them down.
Lyrassa flew past, both hands raised, casting supportive spells that boosted allies across the battlefield.
Behind him, Morganna was locked in fierce combat with several of Soren’s troops, her scythe a dark blur slicing through the air.
Meanwhile, Atlas’s forces pressed forward relentlessly, their coordinated assault driving Soren’s soldiers further and further back.
But, unexpectedly, Soren’s island revealed even more reinforcements, troops pouring out from within the fortress itself.
This Soren isn’t just any lord.
