Chapter 2292 - Don’t Hold Back
Our expressions became serious as both armies have stopped in front of each other. The collective army of Grimm Monsters possesses four times more numbers than us, and that is scaring some people.
It is a normal reaction. If I had been in their place, I would have felt scared seeing such numbers. While they are feeling scared, not a single human has taken a step back; instead of the battle spirit, the energy around them begins to boil up.
Charge CHARGE charge CHARGE!
Both armies stared at each other for about a minute before they charged at each other with their auras and battle spirit energy exploding.
'Don't hold back on anything,' I said to my powerhouses. The days of holding back their power are over; let the world show what power they possess.
I hope my other two mentees had been here, but a week after coming here, I had called off the plans to bring them here. The places they are in right now, they are constantly fighting; there is not a single day where they are not fighting.
I have been sending them the solution regularly after reading their data which they sent me daily.
Their progress is amazing, Leonard's constitution is getting stronger every day, and Danielle is gaining greater and greater comprehension in her art with each battle she fought.
If they keep fighting in such a way, it won't be long before they get desired power I need them to have. Especially, Leonard, I will have to give him a push that transforms his strength completely, but before I do that, his constitution needs to reach a certain level.
In the past month, he had made great strides toward that, and it won't be long before his constitution reaches the stage which I need it to be.
Boom Bam Clang…
Different sounds rang out the moment both of the armies clashed, the force of their clash powerful enough that it shook even some leaders who were about to meed their enemies.
"My God!"
Barely a second passed since the battle had begun when it nearly stopped with shock as decapitated bodies of three Grimm leaders fell down on the ground, and the culprit of it was Ida.
In a single attack, she decapitated all three peak leaders, shocking everyone who was seeing her.
Since she had become my mentee, she had never used her full power in battle where could see her; she had always kept some hidden, but in this battle, she had revealed it all in a single strike.
I would have asked her to keep her power hidden, but it would not have helped her now that she had reached the important stage. From now on, she needs great stimulation fights many life and death battles to harness the potential in her bloodline and make it advance.
"The little girl had decapitated these poor bastards in a single strike; she had not shown her such power when she was fighting in my army, " Grandmistress Tantra said as she turned at me, and I just smiled.
She would have probed me further, but the Grimms have made a move in retaliation.
"Masters attack!" All three of us said in unison; the Grimms have brought out their Masters, and we brought out ours in answer.
"That werewolf is going for that little girl," Grandmaster Oak said; a Master class Werewolf is attacking Ida, which is a terrifying aspect for nearly all the leaders as it means instant death. "Let it come; it will too join those three soon," I said, surprising both Grandmasters beside me.
Ida's bloodline is not general; it is at about the same level as the Phoenix Bloodline of Elina and possesses great potential. Ever since she had become my mentee, I had been solely focused on harnessing its potential, and it could be said I have done a decent job at it.
With my order, no one had interfered, nor anyone could do it seeing the sheer numbers of Grimm Monsters attacking them.
The Master class Werewolf appeared beside Ida and attacked her, and to its shock, Ida had countered its attack without much shake before attacking it and even sent it back a couple of steps back to its shock.
While the performance of Ida is exceptional, the other Tyrants and a few hundred Emperors that I had selected are doing good too, and if not each of them fighting a couple of Grimms at once, their performance has been more evident.
Still, the pressure of huge numbers is evident on the human army; despite great power, they are struggling against huge Grimm Monsters, which are coming at them in doves, looking for every chance to crush the humans.
"You are protecting the list of people I have given you, right?" The old man asked suddenly. "As long as they have capable heart and head remained till the battle end, they will fine," I said with a sigh.
Since my miraculous ability has been revealed, these two have given me the list of people they want to protect from battle, and I agreed as a courtesy since most people in their list are Tyrants and a few very talented Emperors.
The battle is intense; the sheer amount of power it is producing is enough to decimate the huge cities within a second.
Even here, where ice is impossibly cold, the temperature had turned upward that one could barely feel any cold in areas surrounding the battle.
Thankfully, this place is special, and it won't take more than a few hours on most days to regain its cold after the battle stops, unlike the other fragile ecosystems which get decimated whenever the war has begun.
The war always takes a huge toll on the world, and if not for there is usually hundred years of a break, at least where both sides recoup their losses. Our world would have too shattered and turned into the pieces of ruins that we go to explore.
