Red Storm Vol 3 Chapter 92

Book 3-2.3 First Battle against the Wikaly

“Are you saying that our Wikaly needs to be the first to bow our heads? Even without doing that, our Wikaly has not fallen to any sort of pressure for a long time.”

“Who said we should bow our heads? All I am saying is our tribe should make an alliance with another tribe.”

“Isn’t that exactly bowing our heads? If another tribe initiates an alliance request to us, the Glow has every mind to agree to it.”

“Ah! You know that our Wikaly is the one who is urgently in need right now!”

“Watch your mouth!”

Ebinong shouted loudly.

“Who the hell is urgent? You seem to think that we have lost this war even before we have started to fight, so how can you claim you will win this battle!”

Runa Brink started to shout back in a stronger voice.

“That is not what I mean. Our Wikaly is in a delicate location. So we need to prepare first……”

“Shut your mouth. I have no desire to talk any further with a defeatist like you. Leave.”

Runa Brink called out loudly to Ebinong at his words.

“Commanding Greatest Warrior Ebinong!”

“Didn’t I tell you to leave? I am fully capable of taking down Pareia on my own.”

At Ebinong’s repeated request to leave, Runa Brink just stared at him without speaking.

Ebinong did not even look at him, and Runa Brink said one last thing.

“I truly request that you do not move our main forces. If we just maintain our position, Pareia is bound to retreat on their own. It is a simple question if you think about how the Pareia have resisted against the Shuarei’s Venersis.”

Ebinong did not say anything else, and Runa Brink let out a long sigh before leaving Ebinong’s paoe.

Runa Brink climbed up the watchtower and looked toward the direction Pareia would be coming from.

Tomorrow, or the day after that.

They were about that far away according to the patrol warrior.

Ebinong really should not move the warriors without thinking. That really was the best course of action.

But there was something even Runa Brink did not know, and that was the fact that 10,000 warriors were headed toward the center of Wikaly through the quicksand river.

As long as they don’t know that, the truth was that the Wikaly will be eaten up by this red storm headed their way.

Pareia’s troops were quickly moving toward the Wikaly oasis.

But they were forced to stop once they arrived at about half a day’s distance from it.

“They are out here defending.”

Once Egane spoke after taking a look at the Wikaly warriors in front of them, Yulian nodded his head and asked.

“There seems to be around 20,000. Do you think we can take them on with our 14,000?”

Because Vibli and Trebol each took 3,000 warriors to loop around to the flanks, there were only 14,000 warriors in the center.

Yulian was worried about the 6,000 extra warriors.

Egane did not even have to think before he responded.

“Don’t we have the Glow and Red Storm? There is no reason we cannot take them on. Please remember why we had to defend against the Shuarei with greater numbers. There was only one reason. It was because we could not handle Venersis and the Desert Sword. It’s actually better that the Wikaly came out like this to greet us.”

“You are thinking too highly of me.”

As Yulian answered with a somewhat serious expression, Egane smiled a bit before answering.

“You won’t know unless you have them as your enemy. You won’t know just how much impact the existence of a single person that cannot be stopped can have if you have not gone up against them yourself.”

“Is that so?”

“Yes. Since they have not experienced it yet, they have come out like this to greet us. Let’s take them apart in an instant, Glow.”

Yulian had studied a lot and learned a lot through training, but he was still nowhere near Egane when it came to strategies.

Once Yulian nodded his head, Egane gave the command to move the warriors.

“Glow, let us use the method that Venersis enjoyed using.”

“How so?”

Once Yulian asked, Egane was excited at giving back the same thing that they always suffered from and answered.

“Once the battle begins, please take the Red Storm and five hundred warriors and leave the formation. The moment we clash with the Wikaly, just pierce through the Wikaly’s formation and run around causing havoc.”

“That is all I need to do?”

As Yulian asked in confusion, Egane smiled as he answered.

“Glow still does not know what kind of existence you are. You do not know why a War God is called a War God. You did not awaken in our first battle against the Shuarei, but you awakened when you went against Venersis. My heart is pounding just thinking about seeing the effects of that awakening here today. Use the feeling you had when you went up against Venersis to control the WIkaly’s formation. Then this battle will end up an overwhelming victory for Pareia.”

Yulian nodded his head. It was because he remembered that weird intuition he had that time against Venersis.

‘Will I be able to sense the same thing this time?’

Yulian stepped forward as he started to think.

‘If I could use that intuition whenever I wanted……’

He felt like he would never lose a battle or war if he could do that.

Pareia’s formation was set up in the T formation. It was one of the most aggressive formations, and it signaled Pareia’s desire to clash once and pierce through. It also proved that they trusted in the training they put the warriors through.

With Yulian in the lead, four Greatest Warriors followed behind him, and on the Wikaly’s side, Ebinong moved forward, with four Greatest Warriors behind him.

Once the two camp’s Greatest Warriors faced each other, Yulian pushed forward wearing the red clothes that symbolized the Glow of Pareia.

“Oowaaaaaa~!”

Yulian started to speak with Pareia’s loud shouts behind him.

“I, the Glow of Pareia, the Desert Conqueror Yulian Provoke says to you. The Wikaly’s Glow disregarded my will to unite without making the warriors shed their blood for no reason. For how long must our desert walk on eggshells around the strong forces of the continent? It is still not too late. Join me. Join me and join Pareia as we enter the new stage of the desert.”

At Yulian’s loud shout, Ebinong pushed forward, and this time, it was the Wikaly camp that shouted loudly.

“Waaaaaaaaaaaa~!”

Ebinong shouted loudly along with the shouts behind him.

“The name of the idiot in front of me is the Glow of Pareia. You are the one who is shedding the blood of your warriors for no reason. Today, under the orders of Gomai Mao, our great Glow of Wikaly, I, the Overwhelmingly Intelligent, Ebinong Albarooque, will set your mind straight.”

“Hmph.”

Yulian snorted as he answered.

“This sword of mine will tell us who made the wrong decision. Is there any warrior brave enough among the Wikaly’s Greatest Warriors to fight me?”

“Hahaha.”

Ebinong laughed as if he was saying that was funny and answered.

“You really think too highly of yourself. Pride is not one of a warrior’s virtues. Our Wikaly’s warriors will teach that to you today.”

“A warrior is not all talk. Show it to me with your actions.”

Ebinong glared at Yulian as he started to think.

‘Whether it is the War God of the West or War God of the East, they are rated too highly. Honestly, it was only the Shuarei and Pareia fighting against each other. No other tribes have faced the so called strength of these War Gods. I’m sure these are names they made up because they did not like to lose, so we do not need to pay much attention to it.’

Thinking that way, Ebinong took a look around at the Greatest Warriors who came with him. All of them were excent warriors of the Wikaly tribe.

If Ebinong had ever seen Yulian in a battle, he would not have done something as stupid as having a battle of Greatest Warriors against Yulian.

That is, if he had seen how Yulian managed to take an arm of one of the Shuarei’s Greatest Warriors even when he was going up against two of them by himself.

But Ebinong had not seen that and only considered Yulian to be a decently strong young warrior.

Of course he had heard rumors about Yulian, but those are, as they are called, just rumors.

The distance that he has walked with his two feet are probably more than that puny kid has traveled on top of a pirma, and he probably swung his sword more times than Yulian as well. It wasn’t carelessness or overconfidence at all, but it was not right for a warrior to be afraid even before battling someone once.

At that moment, one of Wikaly’s Greatest Warriors, Shya, caught Ebinong’s eyes and pushed forward. He was thinking the same thing as Ebinong.

“Yaaaaaaaaaaaap~!”

With a loud grunt, Shya raised the speed of his pirma as he rode forward with the intent to slash Yulian into two with a single move, and Yulian just smiled as he slowly lifted up his greatsword.

It reminded him of his first battle with the Shuarei. He remembered how they had achieved an overwhelming victory by his keeping three Greatest Warriors too occupied to lead the warriors!

Remembering the memory of the battle, Yulian could have instantly killed Shya but decided not to do so.

If Shya looks to be in danger, he was sure the other Greatest Warriors would come out to help him. In order to make that happen, he suppressed his strength and started to fight against Shya.

The two of their weapons clashed many times in a short amount of time. Egane had a curious smile seeing what Yulian was doing. He had managed to read Yulian’s thought process.

“Do not step forward even if the Glow seems to be in danger. The Glow has a plan of his own.”

Egane informed the other Greatest Warriors of Pareia. It would make things more complicated if some of them decided to try to help.

As Yulian expected, once Shya looked to be in danger, another one of the Wikaly’s Greatest Warriors rushed forward.

But seeing how Yulian was not being pushed back while fighting against two of them and instead started to overwhelm both of them, Ebinong had to change his mind.

‘The rumors about this punk were true. For him to not be pushed back even while fighting against two of our Greatest Warriors. But boy, you are trusting your strength too much. There’s no way you can manage to do the same while fighting three of them.’

Ebinong motioned to one of the two remaining Greatest Warriors who then rushed forward. Now the only Greatest Warriors left for the Wikaly were Ebinong and Abham.

Abham was amazed at Yulian who could handle three Greatest Warriors without any issues.

‘Amazing. What an amazing warrior. They call him the War God of the East [1] … that rumor was not a lie.’

He also remembered Runa’s warning.
