The Gorge of Death that splits the two kingdoms is still there .
No matter how strong they are on land, the enemy cannot get here if they do not have a way to cross the gorge . In fact, the Breck Kingdom's mages had the advantage as they could use long-distance attacks to strike from the other side of the gorge .
They had a lot of soldiers, but it didn't matter if they couldn't attack .
“…Young master Cale, that's what I wanted to ask you . Did something happen?”
Rosalyn had been waiting for Cale until now . She was waiting for Cale to bring her information from Clopeh .
However, Cale's question made her realize that Cale had no information as well .
"Raon is sick . ”
Rosalyn's expression changed . She quickly took out a video communication device and handed it to Cale .
“Where should I connect you to?”
“His highness, prince Alberu . ”
Rosalyn did not say anything else as she started to channel her mana in order to connect the video communication device . However, she did not need to do that .
Beeeep- Beeeeeep-
Her video communication device started to glow red . She immediately connected the call and handed it to Cale .
Cale .
“Your highness, what did he say?”
Alberu Crossman was the only other person's contact information that Clopeh had . It was because Alberu was the only person who would know what Cale was planning to do and take care of things properly .
Cale was certain that Clopeh had told Alberu how they were going to move the troops .
Cale was waiting for Alberu's response .
It was at that moment .
“Commander-nim, the soldiers are stepping back!”
A knight shouted toward Rosalyn .
At the same time, Cale could see the enemy soldiers moving in formations .
The large number of soldiers were all moving at the same time .
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The ground started to shake .
At the same time, a path appeared from in between the soldiers .
Cale heard Alberu's voice at that moment .
Apparently, they made wings . They supposedly got the idea from seeing the necromancer's flying monsters in the Henituse territory's battle .
Alberu Crossman urgently continued to speak .
Cale could see the Bears walking through the path between the soldiers .
Since it was difficult to control the wyverns without Clopeh, they supposedly killed them all . The Dwarves then used the wyverns' bones, steel, and magic stones to make wings . They were able to make multiple wings with every wyvern .
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The ground started to shake with every step the Bears took .
They were the Beast people tribe that was known to be the most numerous of the strong Beast people .
The Bear tribe .
There were large wings on each of their shoulders .
They were bone wings that were imitating wyvern wings .
The large Bears in their berserk states were able to carry those wings .
Rosalyn's urgent voice could be heard .
“Your highness, how many of them are there?”
She looked toward the Bears that were starting to appear on the other side and asked as Alberu immediately responded back .
At least 1,000 .
1000 .
That was not a small number .
There were at least 1,000 enemies that could fly in the air .
It's not just the Bears . It is 1,000, including the Dwarves .
Cale could see the strong but short Dwarves with smaller wings behind the Bears .
The Flame Dwarf tribe . They appeared for the first time in this war .
They were all short but muscular and had strong looking weapons in their hands . Furthermore, Dwarves in general were known for being physically strong .
Rosalyn watched them and started to get a headache .
'How are those wings activated? If they are using magic stones, it has to be using magic .
Can't the mages just shoot them down with magic when they are in the air?'
She then suddenly had a different question .
'…How will the soldiers cross over?'
Cale and Alberu soon answered that question for her .
“That's not it, is it?”
One more thing .
Alberu immediately responded back .
Screeeeech, screech .
They could hear the sounds of machines . It sounded as if extremely heavy wheels were moving .
“Commander-nim! The knights are stepping back as well!”
Now the enemy knights were stepping back as well .
Tens of thousands of enemies were moving now .
A large item appeared between those moving soldiers and knights .
They made a bridge .
Something to connect the two sides of the gorge in multiple locations .
The Dwarves had announced that they were going to build bridges .
The one thousand soldiers with wings are meant to fight until the bridges can be installed .
The thousand flyers were not aiming to attack them directly .
The enemy was aiming to defend as well .
Their jobs were to protect the bridges .
“…That is a bridge?”
Rosalyn could not trust Alberu's words .
“No! It is not a bridge!”
That was not a bridge .
“There are magic bombs on it!”
She looked toward the large item being pushed on top of wheels . She was certain that there were magic bombs inside of it .
Ooooooooong-
She could tell by the vibrations coming from the other side of the gorge . They were full of magic bombs that were on the verge of exploding .
Rosalyn heard Cale's voice at that moment .
“The soldiers and knights are continuing to withdraw . It looks like their goal was to cover those things . ”
Their goal was to prevent the Roan Kingdom from seeing .
Rosalyn looked toward the wings and magic bomb that the soldiers and knights had been covering up . Cale continued to speak .
“The cliff . A path will be created if you destroy both sides of the cliff . I suppose that is a bridge of sort as well . ”
Rosalyn looked down .
She could see the ground .
The cliffs were on separate sides of the gorge . However, if both of these cliffs crumbled, the debris from the cliffs would cover up the gorge .
Rosalyn could see the enemy continuing to withdraw . They were stepping back as if they were doing their best to avoid the impact .
“…Destroy the Gorge of Death?”
Rosalyn then turned toward Cale . Alberu started to speak again .
He said that the Dwarves had one goal . They are trying to create a path for them to be able to come down to the south at any time .
This was the final battle .
However, it was the final battle to prepare for another start .
They will destroy the gorge that hinders their ability to do that .
The Dwarves had prepared for this final battle with thoughts about destroying one of the Five Forbidden Regions .
That is why the Askosan Kingdom and the Norland Kingdom moved all of their forces in order to show their support for the Dwarves' decisions .
It explained the sudden increase in the number of soldiers .
This was the way of the rest of the Indomitable Alliance showing their support . It would mean that they would not lose, even if they lost this battle . It would give them the option of planning for the future .
“These damn bastards……!”
Rosalyn could not understand the thoughts of people who were pushed into a corner . That was why she had not expected such a situation .
That was also why the sights in front of her were making her anxious .
Rosalyn's expression became cold as she started to speak .
“Back! Everybody move back!”
She then gave another order .
“All mages get into attack formation!”
Raon was sick right now . Rosalyn felt that she was the only one here would could take charge of the magic . She gave an order to the mages who were teleporting the soldiers over .
"Stop the teleportations!”
“Excuse me?”
Magic bombs and the resulting explosion .
It would be more difficult with the soldiers here . The soldiers may end up getting dragged into the explosion as well .
She needed to delay their teleportation .
Furthermore, magic was more important than the soldiers right now . They needed long-distance attacks .
“Everyone prepare to attack . ”
She decided to have the mages responsible for the teleportation magic circles to join in on the attack as well . The greatest defense was completely sealing the enemy's attack .
Rosalyn hid her anxiety as she continued to give order after order . She then heard something she did not want to hear .
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The Bears with the large wings .
They started to run . They started to run toward the cliff .
Hundreds of them jumped off the cliff as if they wanted to get help flying up .
Boom! Boom!
Rosalyn's pupils started to shake as she watched them move . She also heard something else she did not want to hear .
Ooooooooong-
The large container with tens, no, an unknown number of magic bombs started to make noises as well .
The device activating it seemed to be slow, however, it was progressing bit by bit .
It seemed as if it would be flung this way soon .
'Is alchemy mixed in as well?'
All sorts of thoughts were on her mind right now .
It was at that moment .
“Miss Rosalyn . ”
She could hear Cale's voice .
“Young master Cale!”
Rosalyn, who looked toward Cale with despair on her face, flinched .
“Consider it as payment in advance . ”
Cale handed her a small pouch . Rosalyn could not help but flinch at Cale's sudden action .
It was because of what was inside the slightly opened pouch . She could feel large vibrations inside .
It was as if the contents were responding to the magic bombs .
A large amount of mana could be felt inside the back .
Rosalyn received the pouch with slightly shaking hands and opened it up .
It was a spatial pocket bag .
“There are hundreds of highest-grade magic stones . ”
Rosalyn could not breathe for a moment .
Just one highest-grade magic stone was extremely precious . However, hundreds of them were gathered together and resonating .
“Use them . ”
Cale walked past her after telling her to use the magic stones . He then walked over to the mages manning the teleportation magic circle . This was the large teleportation magic circle in this base .
“Does the blinking light mean that the other side is requesting teleportation?”
“Excuse me? Yes, that is correct . ”
“Please let them through . ”
“Excuse me? But-”
The mages looked toward Rosalyn and the enemies across the gorge .
“Please hurry . ”
Rosalyn nodded her head as Cale asked once more, and the mages activated the teleportation magic circle again .
It was at that moment .
Boom! Boom! Boom-!
The first group had lifted up into the air .
“…Ah . ”
Rosalyn could see approximately 100 Bears shooting up into the sky . They were flying .
The wings only moved a little bit .
It didn't seem normal, however, they managed to do their job of keeping the Bears up in the air .
They were standing in a line and staring as if they were ready to fly toward the Breck Kingdom's forces at any moment .
'…Attack magic and flight magic!'
She thought of a way to block them . She clenched the pouch in her hand and immediately turned toward the Mage Brigade .
It was now a battle against time .
“I will help as well . ”
Mary picked up her spatial pocket bag that was full of bones . Rosalyn smiled and walked toward the Mage Brigade .
It was at that moment .
Paaaat .
The teleportation magic circle flashed .
Swoooooooosh-
The wind brushed by Rosalyn and blew toward the source of the light . Rosalyn turned her head . Her long red hair fluttered as she saw someone appear .
“It has been too long . ”
“…Gashan-nim . ”
The shaman, Gashan . The leader of the Tiger tribe had appeared with the Tigers .
Rosalyn could see the wind gathering around Gashan . She stopped walking toward the Mage Brigade .
She then heard Cale's voice again at that moment .
"Gashan, use your wind incantation . Also, call your crows over . ”
Gashan used the crows as if they were familiars .
They had helped quite a bit in order to deliver messages when they had destroyed Arm's fleet over the ocean between the Western continent and Eastern continent last year .
However, there were many other ways to use them as well .
“Hohoho, do they just need to bother those large crows in the air?”
Large crows .
Gashan's expression was calm as he pointed to the Bears .
A shaman .
Unlike mages, he could directly use the power of nature .
The Gorge of Death had the strongest winds in all five of the Forbidden regions .
Gashan revealed his sharp fangs as he could not hide his excitement .
At the same time, Cale started to speak to Rosalyn .
“Miss Rosalyn, let's move them to the other side . ”
Cale was pointing to the Tigers . Rosalyn looked toward them as well . Numerous Tigers started to appear through the teleportation magic circle .
Grrrrr, grr .
Their steps became stronger as they walked out of the teleportation magic circle . The Tigers were slowly growing after turning berserk . They then started to laugh .
They were enjoying Cale saying that he would send them to the location of the enemy .
The ally mages and soldiers heard another set of noises as they gulped after seeing the scary expressions on the Tigers' faces .
Another hundred enemies followed the first group into the air .
Boom! Boom! Boom-
That noise made them miss a different noise .
Paaaat .
It was the sound of the teleportation magic circle activating again .
However, the mages and Cale noticed it . He walked toward the teleportation magic circle .
“Long time no see . ”
Last night .
Cale had contacted someone after learning that Lock was unable to fight .
Flick .
A strand of water wrapped around the woman's arm .
“Witira . ”
The future Whale Queen .
Whales were weaker than Dragons, but still able to contend with them . At the same time, they were also the strongest in the world other than Dragons .
Whales .
The woman who was the leader of the Whales .
The Humpback Whale Beast person Witira clenched onto her water whip as she responded back to Cale's greeting with a smile .
“Young master Cale, I didn't want to come alone, so they came with me . ”
“Young master-nim, it has been a while . ”
“Ahem, it has been a while . ”
It was the half-blooded Whale Paseton and Archie, the greatest Whale Warrior .
Witira had brought the two of them with her .
Huuuuuu, huuuuu .
Cale listened to Raon's rough breathing coming from behind him as he started to speak to the Beast people .
The Whales and Tigers were known to be the most aggressive of the Beast people .
Cale was not pushing them toward defense as he had done with the others .
He saw Choi Han pulling out his sword and told them to do what they did best .
“Destroy everything . ”
