Chapter 249 - Start With A Battle Cry



Lucius gazed in the distance as he heard the faint tremors in the ground. 

"Oh?" His brows furrowed his he thought of something.

He waited for a few seconds, before his brows furrowed even more. He turned towards Donald and spoke.

"When was the last when we got a report from the scouts?" Lucius questioned.

"About an hour ago," Donald answered.

"An hour ago? And how many soldiers did they tell us?" Lucius asked again.

"Four hundred." He replied..

~Sigh~

Lucius sighed and shook his head. Seeing his reaction, both Gabriel and Donald were confused and wondered what happened. Even compared to Gabriel, who had fought in battles often, Lucius\'s experience with battles was greater.

After all, he had been in thousands of full scale conflicts right from when he was a child. The Barrom clan was ruthless, and it wasn\'t uncommon to see ten year old children fighting on the front lines.

Even back then, Lucius was a force to reckon with when compared to an average human. In fact, Lucius reckoned that if his ten year old self fought the current him, he would die in less than a minute.

The spells and magic that he could use were simply too powerful and divisive compared to this world. While the gifts could certainly be considered to be stronger, magic was far more versatile.

"What happened?" Gabriel asked, feeling concerned.

"Our scout\'s information is wrong," Lucius replied.

"Huh? What do you mean?" Gabriel asked further, not understanding it.

"There aren\'t just four hundred soldiers heading our way, but more than double that." Lucius said.

"That can\'t be! Our scouts are experienced and won\'t be mistaken." Donald said hurriedly.

"Then either someone betrayed us, made a mistake, or was most likely just fooled. The tremors in the ground… do you really think they can be made just from four hundred people?" Lucius stated.

Hearing about the tremors, Gabriel and Donald had not even paid attention to them. Or rather, they were a bit too faint for them. But the time that Lucius and they had talked was enough for the soldiers of the Drew territory to come closer.

~tremble~

"How can this be?" Donald\'s eyes went wide.

They snapped their necks to see in the distance and finally witnessed the enemy appearing. They finally saw the full force of the enemy. The direction that they had expected to come from was correct.

"No wonder…" Lucius said as he saw the four hundred large, army coming in from the front. 

But that wasn\'t the only one that was there. There were two more regiments that were around three hundred each coming in from the north and the south. The Army of the Inanis family was now surrounded on three sides.

"HOW? HOW DID WE MISS THIS?" Donald exclaimed in disbelief.

"No, seems like I was wrong. The intel was correct. It\'s just that it was incomplete. There were two more regiments in different locations and from the looks of it, they had been waiting there for a while.

The northern and southern part was a forest area while the eastern part was a pass between a few hills. The army of the Inanis family itself was in the western part of the area. 

Together they formed a plus shaped formation if one included all of the armies.

"Those aren\'t the men of Viscount Drew," Gabriel said upon seeing the two regiments.

"Indeed. What we had talked about came true." Lucius replied.

Gabriel furrowed his brows and nodded his head.

"They couldn\'t hold back anymore, huh…" Gabriel stated.

"At least now that they have put their cards on the table first, we know what to expect," Lucius spoke.

"We are outnumbered, my lords! What do we do now?" Donald asked, feeling worried now.

"We fight, even if they have the numbers, we have the superiority." Lucius stated.

"But… we don\'t have a location advantage either. It would have been fine if we were holding a narrow area, but we are in an open field here." Donald replied.

"We do have the advantage… both of location and the surprise." Lucius said before he took a breath. "Start the battle as previously discussed, we will have some help in a bit." He added.

Donald seemed a bit hesitant, but then Gabriel nodded in agreement as well.

"Do it!" Gabriel declared.

"At once!" Donald said with a serious expression.

He went to the open tent at the back and pulled out what looked like a war horn of some kind. It had a wide mouth on one end and several spirals that went through its neck. The other side of the horn was also wide, being twice as wider as the input part.

Lucius looked at the unique looking instrument and saw Donald use it. The input part of the horn was placed on the mouth, covering it fully like a surgical mask. Donald then took a deep breath as the spiral neck of the horn started to shine.

\'It\'s an artifact too… huh.\' Lucius thought.

Once the glow of the horn\'s neck reached the maximum, Donald let out a war cry.

"ATTACK!" Donald said, his voice being changed by the horn to incredibly loud and a bit heavy.

Lucius actually found the voice to be a bit familiar. It was similar to what a few monsters sounded like when they spoke in the media in his past life. In his previous world, people would think of it as comical, but here it was terrifying.

It pumped adrenaline into the soldiers and stirred fear into the hearts of enemies. Lucius narrowed his eyes and used nexus, quickly obtaining the information of the artifact.

Name: Mighty Shouter Battle Horn

Rank: Rare

Description: Made with the rune crystal of Mighty Shouter Birds, the horn amplified and modulates the voice of a user, making it sound more intimidating. 

The Description of the artifact was rather straightforward and Lucius even knew of the beast that it was made from.

\'Smart choice making it from that…\' Lucius thought as he gazed at the battlefield.
