Lord of the Truth

Chapter 607 The face in the sky

*kachaa*

”Supreme General, I feel ashamed that you had to come to the north again. There was another severe attack wave in another area on the northern side, and I had to focus all my attention there and ignore what was happening, but this does not deny that it was negligence on my part. I bear full responsibility.”

Caesar nodded and did not try to console him. The role of the defenders was to prevent the enemies from entering the formation and to confront any upcoming attack while the role of the offensive wing of the army in this case was to push the enemy army back as much as possible and make them feel threatened every time the draw close in order to reduce the pressure on the defensive wing.

Enemies getting close to this point means the attack system failed to do its job.

Caesar moved his halberd again and sent out another wave of Death Fire, pushing the enemies back further, then he let out a sigh and patted the shoulder of the young man next to him, ”Raiden, stay here and make sure that they do not regroup in this area again, at least until the defensive wing regains some of their strength, I will go and take a tour of the rest of the fronts.”

Before Caesar could jump toward his next target, he felt a hand grab him and pull him down, ”Hmm? Is there something else you want, Raiden?”

Raiden stared into Caesarʼs eyes for a few seconds, then finally opened his mouth: ”...Can I ask you to wait here with me for a bit? Just watch me perform the duties of the offensive wing and give me feedback. I will greatly benefit from your experience, Your Highness, and will be grateful if you give me this opportunity. ”

Caesar did not respond immediately to this strange request, but rather furrowed his eyebrows slightly and focused on the eyes of the young man in front of him... He knew how proud this young genius was, and he knew that simply asking for help placed a great burden on him and that words like these did not usually come out of his mouth.

Then Caesar seemed to finally understand something. He smiled and withdrew his hand from Raidenʼs grip, ”What Does your Supreme General look so weak that you want me to rest next to you?”

”...That wasnʼt my intention.” Raiden looked right and left before speaking.

He did not want the soldiers to hear this, but Caesar actually said the real reason... Even though he was wearing a helmet, his tired eyes, pale skin, and emaciated aura gave him away.

”Haha, Iʼm glad that someone took my health into consideration, but Iʼm fine. Something like this wonʼt stop me. This siege is nothing compared to the siege of Hoffenheim that lasted for two full years.” Caesar laughed loudly and patted Raidenʼs shoulder firmly

”During the siege of Hoffenheim, we could retreat to rest from time to time, and you, Your Highness, had an elite corps with you and only intervened only in critical situations, and yet you were one of the main reasons that enabled us to hold out for two years, but the rate of your intervention now...” Raiden spoke again. Worriedly, although he did not know what the Supreme General was feeling and what effect using the Death Fire would have on him, a powerful force like the Death Fire would definitely have consequences.

Caesar shook his head, smiling, then pointed to another, nearby front, ”See this?”

*Boom* *Boom*

Raiden raised his eyebrows slightly and clenched both hands tightly. Because of Caesarʼs intervention in this area and pushing the enemies back, those enemies turned right and left to attack the closest points they could reach away from the Death Fire, meaning that the pressure on other points increased several times...

Caesar patted Raidenʼs shoulder with a smile, ”During our short conversation just now, my spiritual sense did not leave that front. 15 good young men were killed there while we were chatting and the number is still increasing, If you had let me go, perhaps they would have returned to their families alive.”

Then he took a few steps away from him and put one hand behind his back, ”Everyone here is holding their souls in their hands and doing their best to get through the ordeal without thinking about themselves. I wonʼt let some side effects stop me.” Then he jumped towards the nearest front without waiting for a response, raising his halberd over his shoulder

”...But if you collapse, we will all die...” Raiden could only mutter as he saw Caesarʼs back move away, his concern and respect for the Supreme General multiplied several times.

*VROoOoOM!!*

*Rumble* *Rumble*

At this moment, a strong sound of thunder was heard as if it was caused by the splitting of the sky and the earth

”What-- Whatʼs going on?!”

At this moment, there was no difference between the Imperial Army and the Localsʼ Union Army. They all remained in place and began to look around expectantly. Everyone was sure that something big was going to happen, and both sides were suspicious of the other!

”Look up!!”

It was not known who uttered this shout, but everyone began to look up one by one. In the blink of an eye, the massive battle stopped and everyone turned their faces upward, and what was happening in the sky was even more strange.

At this moment, the clouds were quickly turning around and depicting an angry human face!

”This... this...”

”Itʼs... Itʼs His Excellency!”

”It is His Excellencyʼs face!!”

”Long live His Excellency! Long live the True Beginning Empire!!”

”Long live His Excellency! Long live the True Beginning Empire!!”

A state of emotional agitation struck millions of the Empireʼs soldiers. At this moment, it seemed as if all the fatigue and exhaustion that possessed them had disappeared without a trace.

Even Caesar stopped midway, raised his eyebrows, and whistled softly as he muttered, ”Looks like that old man has learned some new tricks...”

The Plank-eyed soldiers from the woods and buds in the army tried to urge everyone to advance again and ignore the face in the sky, but no way... that angry face that covered dozens of miles brought with it an oppressive aura and was accompanied by stormy winds and thunderous rain. 

This face seemed as if he were an embodiment of the worldʼs anger... How do they move now and where? The best option is to run away!!

”Sons of the True Beginning Empire.” Finally, the angry face opened its huge mouth and began to speak the language of the Greenlanders in a voice that exploded in the chests and minds, ”I have just heard of the vile trap into which those local scum have led you, and I, Emperor Robin Burton, will not allow my men to be harmed by vile creatures!”

*Rumble* *Rumble*

Thunder thundered in the sky again, and this time a few lightning bolts landed, creating craters in the ground tens of meters in diameter but it didnʼt hurt anyone.

”Keeeh!!” The Union soldiers began to take a few steps back automatically. Quite a few of them fell during the retreat and were trampled to death.

”ROBIN BURTOOON!!!” Father Treeʼs Flores Warlord pointed at the face in the sky angrily and shouted loudly, ”Are you trying to threaten us with these games? Do you think our mighty army will break at a few words? If you are a real man, come and confront me and maybe you will do something!”

The face in the sky was so huge that it covered the distance between the Great Battle and the Battle of the Emperors, so the face did not need to move its eyes until it began to laugh and she looked down with contempt, ”Hahaha Tree Father Floris, did I hear correctly or are you inviting me to a duel? Who gave you such audacity? Didnʼt you learn anything after seeing me destroy 6 warlords at the same time before? Did you use this toy that you call a warlord to convince those foolish villagers to follow you to their death? What, do you want me to come and destroy you myself so that you can brag about fighting Emperor Robin personally? Haha in your dreams.”

Then Robinʼs laughter calmed down a little as he looked back down angrily, ”No, Flores, neither you nor anyone else has enough weight to force me to fight with my hands. My soldiers are enough!”

”Ahooooh!!” The imperial soldiers raised their weapons and shouted

”My soldiers are strong enough to eat you alive!”

”Ahooooh!!”

”My soldiers will completely annihilate this worthless army today and slaughter their way down the throats of all of you!”

”Ahooooh!!” ”Ahooooh!!” ”Ahooooh!!”
