Nobody's PoV:
The enemies halted their charge and their eyes showed fear. Some of them even wanted to retreat but when their commander saw this, he shouted "YOU PILE OF DOG SHITS!!! THIS IS WHAT YOU'VE BEEN TRAINING FOR! THOSE WHO RETREAT WILL BE EXECUTED ON THE SPOT! MOVE ONWARDS!" When the enemy soldiers heard this they steeled themselves and moved onwards.
"They are a pile of dog shits hahahaha." Hauzer said with delight. "Hey how about we see who can kill the highest number of enemies?" Leone asked. "It'd be pointless with father here. Its obvious that he can kill the most. A 100 000 is a small number to him." Caine replied to the both of them.
"Yeah... sigh." Sighed both Leone and Hauzer. "But we can still have a contest amongst ourselves. The winner gets half the amount of the losers food for three weeks." Comforted Hauzer. "Sure, Yeah" Was the two's replies.
After their small talk, they rushed to the nearest enemies and joined their brothers and sisters.
Alrick was smashing the enemies in front of him like they were small children with the use of his giant halberd. Actually they do look like small children to the almost 3 meter tall acolyte.
The twins, Viscerius and Valerius, was killing more and more enemies by the second. Their joint attacks composed of spear stabs and sword slashes were formidable.
Alvarez's strength was unfathomable, so much that even the top 3 are in awe of him. With a rapier in hand, he has already left a path of lifeless corpes and mangled flesh behind him. His already at the center together with Ares.
Leone was really like a lion. His choice of weapon were claws attached to a pair of gauntlets. He kept slashing and crushing enemies. And every slash ended up with a flying limb and flesh and blood sprouting like a fountain.
Hauzer with a silver lance in hand was like a storm who ravaged the battlefield, be it enemy soldiers, ballistae or catapults, they were brought down to the ground and stayed there.
Caine the strongest of the three was really deserving of his title of the strongest acolyte. He was attacking the enemies in front of him and defending his brothers and sisters whenever they risked being harmed. With a seven foot long saber, he was like a majestic king standing amongst his kin.
The other elite guards and acolytes were making quick work of their enemies. Killing them instantly without the chance of having to attack the same body twice.
Its hard to imagine that these 33 are all mortals. Athena while looking at them can't help but imagine all of them becoming their own gods of war. Ares himself was unstoppable on the battlefield.
He threw his sword like a spear and went through eight enemies, leaving a large gaping hole on their lifeless bodies. He began killing enemies with punches and kicks. After killing more than a thousand enemies with this method, he began to rip them apart, like literally. The enemies armors and shields couldn't help them this time. It was like paper against Ares.
Athena and her hoplites were dumbfounded when seeing this scene. A new kind of fear for the god of war started burning in their hearts. At these time, they thanked the gods that Ares was on their side.
The commander when seeing the deaths of his soldiers, started moving towards Ares to fight him but only managed to take a couple of steps before being rushed by Ares and getting decapitated with a single kick.
The remaining enemy soldiers, when they saw their commander's head flying in the sky, were scared shitless and and began to retreat. But they were a lost cause because the acolytes didn't even give them a chance. In a matter of minutes the 100 000 enemy soldiers were all dead, with some being unrecognizable because of being ripped to shreds and some being turned to mush because of trampling.
The hoplites were dumbfounded and trembling in their armors. All 100 000 enemy soldiers were wiped out by a small group of Olympian warriors. And most of all not a single life amongst the small group of warriors was lost. Right there, they don't even know if to cry or cheer. They were too afraid.
Athena was the first to move and rushed Ares with a bone crushing hug.
Before Ares could hug her back, Athena kissed him passionately. Ares without a second thought kissed back.
The acolytes when seeing this cheered hard. "Athena bring back your hoplites. I'll split up my acolytes to help the others. While we'll help the north because its the nearest." Ares said to Athena. Athena nodded and brought back her hoplites. "Caine, Leone and Hauzer will go south to help the soldiers there. Alvarez take all the remaining acolytes and sweep the mountains and forests for any deserters." Ares ordered them. The top 3 nodded and quickly left. "Every remaining elite guard will take a small group with them and sweep the whole lands. Alexis and Alexei, you're with me. With that said, lets move!" Alvarez said to them before leaving with Alexis and Alexei. The others nodded and chose people to accompany them before leaving.
With everyone gone and Ares being soaked with blood and surrounded by corpses reminded Athena of the first time they had sex. She quickly banished the thought along with the rising feeling of taking Ares there and then. When Ares saw her expression he laughed and pecked her lips before nibbling her left ear and whispering "I'll ravage you tonight after were done with this pitiful war." She blushed madly and smacked him in the shoulder and kissed him hard. After that she went to his neck and left a love bite there for everyone to see.
Ares laughed and picked Athena up princess style before going north.
