"What else? To fight those monsters of course." Baron Smith chuckled lightheartedly. Unlike Dylann who was full of anxiety, the baron seemed to be completely relaxed. "I know that, but why? You don't need to place yourself in danger!" Dylann stared at his father with a worried look. Baron Smith's expression turned serious as he shook his head. He then pointed at the ongoing battle and uttered in a solemn tone. "The situation is urgent and if nothing is done, there will be more casualties." "Dylann, as the future lord of Redonia, there are times when you will be forced to make a choice. Will you save yourself or will you save your people?" The baron tapped his son's shoulder. "Go back to your position. We will be fighting soon." Baron Smith didn't give him the time to respond and left without looking back. Dylann could only watch his father leave with a mixture of emotions. "Lord Dylann!" Rigor's familiar voice pulled him from his thoughts. He turned around and saw Rigor, his squad leader, beckoning, urging him to return. Dylann took a deep breath before he returned to his squad. At this moment, the first row of the shield bearer unit collapsed from exhaustion while they were covering the retreat of the combat unit. Seeing this, Henry quickly signaled his troops to move forward. "Don't push yourselves too hard! Just use the bare minimum of mana and always stay close to your squad!" Henry's voice drifted into everyone's ears. The timely response of the infantry unit prevented the further collapse of the shield bearer unit. The battle raged on. Henry's troops did their best to keep the orc warriors at bay, but everyone was already exhausted and they didn't have enough time to rest. The warriors could no longer bring out their full strength since they were overcome with fatigue. The two barons, Argus and Smith Heinrich took on more monsters to lessen the burden on the troops. Suddenly, on the opposite side of the tunnel, a slender, red-skinned orc appeared. On its right hand was a bone sword that seemed to be made using the spine of an unknown creature. As soon as the red-skinned orc appeared, the atmosphere abruptly changed. The orcs became more aggressive. Smith Heinrich thought to himself in the middle of the battle. While they were fighting with the orc lord, more red-skinned orcs came out of the opposite tunnel. Roarrr!!! An ear-piercing roar suddenly echoed across the cavern as five more orc lords arrived. "There's five more of them?!" Henry exclaimed, terror gripping his heart. An orc lord was stronger than a peak Elite Knight and they were already having trouble fighting with one. Now, five such monsters had appeared. "Sir Henry, be careful!" Smith's alarmed voice drifted into his ears and in the next moment, he felt as if a large boulder had crushed into his body. Bang! Henry was thrown like a ragdoll and was glued into the cavern wall after smashing heavily. Smith Heinrich stared at the culprit. It was an orc lord, but unlike the monster they had fought earlier, this one was twice as big. It was even bigger than an orc general that was known for its massive size! This one is stronger than the slender orc lord. Its aura is more intense too. Smith Heinrich's face darkened. This was no longer something that he could deal with. With just a glance, he could tell that this particular orc lord was at the Transcendent level! Whoosh! The huge orc lord appeared in front of him like a ghost. The baron widened his eyes in horror and before he could react, the monster grabbed his shoulder. Its large hand gripping onto him like an iron clamp. Argh! Smith Heinrich struggled and tried to break away from its grip. He lifted his sword and stabbed toward the orc lord's arm, but the beast destroyed his sword with a punch. He didn't give up. He repeatedly punched and kicked the monster's arm, but it was of no use. Enraged by his actions, the orc lord slammed his body to the ground. Bang!
