My Beginning After the End Four Armies

The Battle for Etril Pt. IV

Cecilia

"On me." I ordered, the twenty thousand Wraiths behind me followed my command, lining themselves up as we stood about a mile away from the city of Maerin. "Sylvie, take a unit and go scout them out."

"I got it by myself." Sylvie said, changing into her dragon form, traveling into the sky to go see what was up. I believed her, she could take care of this scouting mission by herself, it would only take a minute or two.

"Hans." I said, turning to the one Wraith near me, he introduced himself in Aramoor after Arthur and Virion escaped with their lives. "Prepare your units, we attack in five." He nodded his head and went into the Wraith army, preparing them for battle.

It has been a good four to five hours since the attack in Aramoor, I wanted to move quickly, but every portal needed a cool down after teleporting so many troops. Virion Leywin was injured severely, he wasn't going to be able to win this battle, or even fight in it. These blood troops I heard about stood no chance.

I couldn't sense any mana coming off of the soldiers a mile out, but there was a shield around them, and from what Agrona said, it's a mana suppressing shield. It wasn't a shield for people, but for mana, so anyone could walk in and out.

I couldn't sense the number of troops though either, that's why Sylvie was scouting them, making sure we could handle it, but from knowledge, there isn't a force Virion Leywin could put together to take us out.

I wasn't going to take any chances though, Virion Leywin was smart, and I knew why now, he was Agrona's vessel. He wasn't Agrona, but Agrona made him, using magic I didn't even know was possible. He wouldn't even tell me about it, which annoyed me that he didn't trust me, but it was fine.

"We are ready, Lady Cecilia." The Wraith said, they didn't respect me at first, but after I slaughtered three units of them, they knew better. Agrona said I could, so I did, and it made up for how they were treating me at first. "Say the word, and we will go and slaughter every single one of them, except for Virion Leywin."

"Alright." I said, nodding my head as I faced forward, waiting for Sylvie to return back, it was going to be any second now. "Wait for Sylvie, she will let us know the number of troops." I could see in the sky; Sylvie was flying back to us with the numbers.

"Of course, Lady Cecilia." He said, standing there, knowing not to back talk or disrespect me. 

Sylvie landed and changed back into her human form, smiling as she approached me. "It looks like their force numbers in the three hundred thousand, the blood troops are all they got, but I could see three of his children in the back, observing."

"Three hundred thousand, you can take that out, right?" I asked, turning back to Hans, and he nodded his head, so I shrugged and threw my hand upwards. "Kill them all." The Wraiths all vanished from behind me, shooting forward towards the force.

"Are we going to let them handle this right now?" Sylvie asked, and I nodded my head as they just continued to pass me. "Why? Cecilia, don't you want to take them out? Get in a fight?" I just fought Grey and Virion, I didn't take as much damage as them, but that was because I showed up when they were already fighting.

"Because Virion Leywin isn't going to be fighting, so I find no joy in killing those blood beast, they are weak." I told her as the two of us started flying upwards into the sky. "The Wraiths should be able to take them out with ease."

"I'm not saying they won't, and to be honest, they probably will wipe out the troops within an hour, but I thought that you would want to fight still, you know, after staying in the Relictombs for so long." Sylvie told me, it was true, I would love to fight, but it's pointless, I was saving my energy.
