The Golem Mage

Chapter 259: Evil Sect (6).

Keith was livid, unable to contain his anger any longer, as he saw the mages he wanted to used fail.

”What is the meaning of this?, Are you trying to get the mages killed?”

He had been waiting for an opportunity to confront Walter, and seeing the mages getting attacked by the Minotaur so easily was the last straw.

Walter simply scoffed and smirked, dismissing Keith’s concerns.

”What were you expecting?, For a couple of mages to effortlessly enter the third stage of the skill upon encountering it for the first time?” He taunted Keith, clearly pleased with himself.

”It’s not that easy to learn and achieve a higher assimilation with the demonic beasts,” Walter continued, his smug smile never leaving his face.

”If it were that simple , Terran wouldn’t be the only mage who has reached the third stage, in The whole War God Mage Academy, and the Academy wouldn’t even bother with the Orc villages in the second Dimension.”

Keith was displeased with his behavior, but Walter seemed unconcerned.

As long as their actions didn’t reflect poorly on the War God Mage Academy, he was content.

The second batch of mages, who had just learned the skill tome and were eager to join the fight, now felt relieved that they weren’t among the ones lying on the ground, unsure of their current state.

They had almost resorted to roughing up Walter and his group of mages in frustration when they heard a swirling sound.

The mages’ bodies trembled as they recognized what that sound meant - someone was coming out of the space gate.

The thought of another Minotaur emerging sent shivers down their spines, realizing that Terran was still fighting the previous one.

It was clear that none of them could stand their ground against another powerful Minotaur like the one Terran was already engaged with.

Fortunately, when they turned to face the gate, they were relieved to see that it wasn’t another Minotaur.

However, the sight in front of them still made most of the mages’ faces drain of color, causing a sense of dread to settle in even before the fight began.

Several Tier 7 Orc commanders emerged from the space gate, followed by several ranks of Orcs below them.

The human mages, who were just about to fight for benefits, immediately stopped as their faces burned with shame and embarrassment.

They realized that they were outnumbered by the army of Orcs coming out, and they knew they wouldn’t be able to match each Tier 7 commander Orc that came through the gate.

This was all due to the foolishness of most of the human mages who had tried to take on a Tier 8 Minotaur.

”We are damned,” a nearby mage said, showing an intention to flee.

”All deserters from the city’s Mage community are to be punishable by death, if not caught we would post a wanted notice”

”We fight for the city and die for the city, I am sure the War God Mage Academy would have noticed an abnormality around here by now, and reinforcements should be on their way,” another mage spoke up.

”But if you run away now and we survive this, just remember that all deserters will only face death... I can understand if you want to run from a Tier 8 lifeform since it is beyond what we can ever dream of, No one would hold it against you.”

”But if you were to run while facing a lifeform of the same rank,” he paused dramatically,

”then you are all nothing more than cowards who do not deserve the protection this city has given you for years.”

Maze’s passionate speech surprised Walter, who looked at him in awe.

He had never expected Maze to be such a patriotic member of the city.

The city guards stood behind the Maze clan, as they were soldiers who never ran from battle waged on their city.

It was their duty to protect the city, even if it led to their death.

The various city guardians, who acted as generals of the city guards, nodded in agreement with Maze.

His fiery words made them believe that he was a person fit to rule the city, unlike the cunning and crafty Keith, who seemed to have disappeared into the crowd.

Witnessing this scene, the mages who were about to silently slip away from the battlefield now stood rooted to the ground, unable to move.

Seeing that he had the support of the city guards, Maze continued his speech, aiming to raise the morale of the mages around him. Read exclusive content at NovelFire.Côm

Although they may have come from different factions, and might all have somewhere to return to.

While The other group of mages, like those from the War God Mage Academy, had come to help defend the city because if Latvia fell, the next city the Orcs would attack would be theirs.

”In the old days, mages fought against two or three lifeforms of the same rank in order to save the countless human race behind them.”

”They fought for the survival of humanity, Today, we shall recreate that unity and fight for the survival of those standing behind us, Because those behind us are our family, our loved ones.”

”And for all of you, behind you is the city that houses your businesses and investments, The destruction of this city will profit none of us, Only with all of our strength can this city survive, So lend me all your strength and face this calamity that has befallen our city.”

Maze’s speech boosted the morale of all the other mages, and they resolved themselves to face the Orcs together.

Even Walter was surprised at how Maze had been able to gather the morale of the entire squad as they shouted in excitement

making them believe they could defeat the Orcs, If it had been Keith who did this, he would have understood better, as it was in Keith’s character to use others to get what he wanted.

But when Maze did it instead, Walter felt a wave of righteousness from him, causing him to doubt if they had truly been wrong in suspecting Maze.

”Attack, you idiots! For the CHIEFTAINS!”

the leading Orc Commander roared, pointing his long sword at the group of human mages across them.

The Orcs also roared in rage as they started charging towards the human mages.

Maze gave a similar command, leading the human mages who dashed towards the Orcs on the other side.

The Tier 7 mages took to the skies to fight the Tier 7 Orc commanders moving away from Terran’s fight and , leaving the ground for the Mid Rank mages to settle their disputes.

And even though the Tier 7 mages were at a disadvantage, they never showed any signs of retreat.

They were led by Maze, who bravely faced four Tier 7 Orcs by himself.

The remaining twenty-something Tier 7 mages held their ground against two Tier 7 Orcs each, giving everything they had and unleashing powers they never knew they possessed.

On this battlefield, there was no presence of low-rank mages or Orcs.

The Orcs believed that those of lower rank were not worthy to be in such a holy battlefield.

They saw them as cannon fodder, to be trained until they eventually became strong enough to be considered valuable.

That’s why the space passage requirement at the Mage Academy was set at Tier 3, as that was the supposed highest realm of orcs which usually in the outer region.

The Orcs were a war-like race that worshiped strength.

They found it beneath them to kill those weaker than them in the second dimension, so they left them as challenges and stepping stones for their low-rank Orcs to practice on and gain battle experience to progress to the next realm.

While the Orcs might not care about killing weaker humans in the second dimension under normal circumstances, in the battlefield, they would unleash brutal massacres without hesitation.

That is precisely why the city had not called upon any low-rank mages for help.

They were well-aware of the savage nature of the Orcs and did not want to expose the weaker mages to such danger.
