Earth's Greatest Magus

While the battle and overall situation in the Magus Academy was settling down with the arrival of the two supreme magus, reinforcements had also begun to arrive at the 10 institutes of elements.

Eskinshire – Institute of Light Element

Grand Magus Aurora was unable to care for her remaining two dozen subordinates as she was still completely occupied fighting her grand magus opponent, leaving them to their own fate. Even though various wounds were visible on their bodies, they still stood bravely against the thirty dark elf magus in front of them.

“Kill them all!”

The loud voice of one of the dark elf magus filled with killing intent resounded through the air.

However, just before another round of conflict broke out between the two hostile sides, a looming shadow appeared above them. Almost all of them immediately looked up and their eyes widened seeing that a huge ship had arrived in the sky above the crystal hill.

Several people who were knowledgeable quickly recognized the ship, and their eyes lit up in reaction.

A Gemini-type spaceship, filled with a total of 100 half-bloods, 20 of them in the magus realm. This company of half-bloods was led by Heorgar, the Wolf Flag Bearer of the Zodiac City.

He had come as a reinforcement, bringing with him the elites of the Zodiac City’s Wolf Warriors, and amongst them, the White Fang Clan.

Before they threw themselves into the fray, Heorgar as their leader gave a loud howl, echoed by the bloodthirsty wolves.

Howwllll!!!

[Battle Howl]

As the cacophony of loud howls joined together, all half-bloods began to transform; a ferocious glint flashed in their eyes. Immediately after, they all shot out of the ship with overwhelming vigor and descended onto the ground like torrential rain.

All of them moved fast like a hurricane, charging forward to save those in need and attack the dark elves. Their arrival became the spark needed to take control of the God crystal back and reactivate the Magus Academy’s barrier.

Surrounded by a dozen half-blood magus and one Grand Magus Aurora, the famous general of the dark elf was eventually able to be taken down and captured.

The same scene unfolded at the other institutes. Each was visited by the Zodiac City’s troops led by each of the Flagbearers. One hundred elite half-blood warriors gave their best to secure each institute and hold down the place until more reinforcements came.

On the other side of the sector, a battle on an even larger scale started between the elves and humans. The battlefield was the vast void, with its participants being an Armada of 30 dark-elven warships against the Pegasus Brigade of 10 warships led by Supreme Commander Jesper Hoffins.

With such a significant difference in numbers, the Pegasus Brigade on the human side would have had a hard time winning the conflict were it not for the fact that they had moved quickly on the intel they had. Thus enabling them to arrive at and secure a crucial strategic position.

Said strategic position was a defensive outpost standing between the narrow space surrounded by the Void River and the asteroid field. With two natural obstacles funneling the enemy, the Supreme Commander only had to worry about the front.

Taking full advantage of the outpost’s advantageous traits and facilities, the Supreme Commander was able to skillfully maneuver his warships while the enemy was only able to advance three at a time, allowing him to hold his ground even against a fleet of thirty elven warships.

“Commander, the third wave has arrived!”

“Status report!”

“We have lost four warships, and only Warship Blueskin, Barbaro, and Redrum are battle ready. The other three have taken serious damage.”

In both individual ability and technological advancement, the elves had the upper hand over the humans. It was ten against three, one with the obvious advantage in numbers, yet the human side still suffered considerable losses and casualties after only clashing the other side twice.

With the fact that now only four warships could be used to repel the enemy, Pegasus vice commanders and battle commanders of the other warships couldn’t help but feel anxious about their current situation.

“Commander, we should retreat for now and change positions,” suggested one of the vice commanders. Unfortunately, the suggestion was immediately met with a firm refusal from the Supreme Commander.

“No! We can’t afford to lose this position!” The man said, “If we leave, the enemy can start ransacking through the entire sector at will. So no, we have to keep holding on no matter what it takes!”

After saying those words, the Supreme Commander then ordered the commanders of the three damaged warships to immediately transfer their warriors to reinforce the four that were still functioning. The three warships then filled with the wounded survivors of the destroyed warships  and were ordered to retreat.

With that, the battle turned into four against three.

The third round of their clash soon began and the Pegasus Brigade lost another two ships. They also had to resort to skirmishing with all magus and grand magus boarding into the enemy ships.

It was apparent that the Pegasus Brigade was at the end of its stick, and the elves must have realized this as well. This was proven by the presence of the mothership among the fourth wave of elven ships.

Despite the sight, Supreme Commander Jasper still didn’t back down. The Magus Alliance’s fierce struggle continued for six hours, at which point they were about to be completely annihilated when the Commander heard a voice over his communication device.

[Pegasus Brigade, This is Alliance Fleet A-300, we have just crossed the Cordian space, ETA 5 minutes]

The Magus Alliance’s reinforcements just came out of their hyper speed, an Armada with a total number of 50 warships.

With the reinforcement and the fact that their operations at the academy had failed, the elven armada decided to withdraw.

The invasion was stopped just hours after it started, but it was not without repercussions as hundreds of thousands of deaths and the destruction of many warships had occurred. In addition, the entire sector was under full lockdown for the next three days; each planet was thoroughly scoured and investigated for possible elves, either survivors of the battle or infiltrators.

It wasn’t until the fourth day that people could finally start their mourning.

The whole tragedy was labeled as The Academy Bloody Incursion.

This tragedy which was engraved in the annals of the Magus Alliance was one in which over 500,000 people died within six hours; ninety percent of them were civilians. A total of 185 magus and 9 grand magus’ names entered the book, together with 3,218 missing acolytes.
