Chapter 284: The Prophecy [Sacrifice Part IV]

-- POV General --

As night fell and the unprepared human army made its way, as planned, to the walls of the capital, panic broke out in the castle. It hadn't even been 3 hours since the battle had begun and already Knights and Paladins could be seen rushing through the empty streets. What was going on ? How could such a thing be possible when the army was made up of battle-hardened soldiers ? Was this already the end ?

In reality, despite appearances and the situation, Zal hadn't yet lost a huge number of warriors, but rather ground. Morale had also been greatly reduced, as in less than two hours, humans found themselves having to take refuge like wounded animals. Needless to say, anger and feelings of humiliation were present in every one of them, but strangely not in the one who had finally risen from their seat.
