The war between the new Kingdoms of Arcana and Berum has continued for several decades and showed his spiked several times, but at the current time, the war started to reach its peak with the Berum kingdom, otherwise known as the land of the immortal phoenix being the one agitated the war to happen.

The war justification for it was the fact that the king of Berum, is a matter of fact a phoenix who is considered to be a divine beast that believes in the goddess of the Sacred Cross. As a being that is made out of pure life force and the holy attribute, it was only natural for their Kingdom establishing itself with the interest of those two attributes.

That was why the Berum was known for the citizen having stronger and healthier bodies.

The Arcana Kingdom was different though.

A kingdom build upon the idea of purchasing magic and nothing else, with the ones that reached the peak of magic called the title of Magus to rule over the kingdom.

Creating a kingdom ruled by an oligarchy as reaching the 5th-tier was too rare for achievement for a man to reach.

Compared to the usage of life force, magic itself quickly shows its flexibility compared to the former.

With enough resources, magic items were created that could fatal wounds and different kinds of magic were found, making life much easier.

Alas wherever the sun shines, shadows will be cast.

And in shorter than a decade, the dark arts of magic were founded by people. The most infamous of them all was Necromancy.

Wherever the intention was of such magic to be born, it didn´t take long for someone with ill intention to master this sort of power and achieve immortality in the form of undeath.

Making the Arcana kingdom nothing more of a spawn place of powerful undead in the form of Liches.

Turning the exact reason for the Berum kingdom to instigate holy war against the Arcana kingdom.

Of course, the weakest of the new kingdoms, the Dynasty of Ioratal saw that as nothing more of an excuse for the Berum Kingdom to claim more territory.

And the reason why they were taking part in the war was to prevent neither party finishes as they knew the moment one of them falls, they were bound to be next.

"Or at least that´s the explanation that my brother gave to me. Knowing him he probably hid something, but that\'s the gist of it." Vanessa said with a lazy tone while following behind Wilhelm.

Hearing her explanation, Danzel nodded before looking around at the 200 knights that were with them and the other group of mercenaries.

`So Dynasty is simply keeping the others for strangling themselves while being in the background, huh?´ Danzel thought to himself.

Although he knew the situation of both Berum and the Arcana kingdom, he knew very little about the so-called Ioratal Dynasty. That´s why she asked Vanessa for the reason they were in a war against two giants.

The answer he got though was more simple than he expected.

The two kingdoms couldn´t effort to fight on two fronts since the moment they do they will be at a great disadvantage against the true threat.

And if either party succeeded in taking over the territory of the Dynasty, then they were bound to have more resources than the other party, increasing their chance of winning the war.

`So this battlefield wouldn´t contain the main force of either kingdom, huh? If things are as I guessed, then it´s an opportunity worth being harvested.´ Danzel thought before turning his head towards Wilhelm.

"Sir, when will we be arriving?" Danzel said with a cold voice, much different from when he was talking with Vanessa.

The knights who were only of the 2nd-tier looked at him in disdain.

The fact of being a necromancer with a huge undead under his control brought both fear and disdain. Those who were overly sensitive to one\'s aura also felt kinda creeped out by him and his voice.

Looking at the knights that he was assigned, Wilhelm felt troubled by the necromancer\'s presence and lack of respect towards a noble.

`No, he is a mercenary send directly by his highness and a 3rd-tier too.´ Wilhelm shook his head before answering.

"We almost there, it shouldn´t take us long..."

"..."

Danzel wanted to complain but stopped himself from doing as such.

They have been walking for an entire hour with all the 200 knights.

Though their numbers did indeed pose some threat, Danzel thought that it would have been better on leaving them behind and run towards their destination with only the 3rd-tiers and leave the liability behind.

Alas, he decided to keep his opinion to himself.

`Having more meat shields and corpses should be safer anyways´ Such were his true thoughts.

In the meanwhile Sarah who was waiting to create trouble scoffed at Danzel.

"Hmpf, how ignorant can you be? Didn´t you guys look at any information before coming and accepting this job? Sigh~that´s why I hate third-rated mercenaries."

Hearing that, Danzel didn´t even spend a glance at her and continued ignoring her. Vanessa in comparison looked as if she was ready to kill her on the spot.

Fortunately for Sarah, before that happend they even reached their destination.

"Knights! Look through the surroundings for possible enemies! Mercenaries, follow me..." Wilhelm ordered.

Each of them followed the instruction and respectively both Vanessa and Danzel were confused as to what they were doing here.

He wanted to voice out his confusion, but the ones who beat him first were Vanessa.

"Hey, I thought we will be going to a battlefield, what are we doing here?"

Hearing her question, Wilhelm\'s frown titched for a split second.

`Did you guys really come here without knowing anything?´

He couldn´t help but remember the words that Sarah said a moment ago.

"Miss Vanessa~" Talking with a respectful tone unlike of a noble, Wilhelm pulled out a map that he was carrying.

He didn´t dare offend someone of the 4th-tier.

"The current battlefield isn´t that far away. It´s around here." He pointed at the blue and red cross on the map.

"And we are here~" He then pointed at a black circle which was around 8 kilometers far away from the battlefield.

"We aren´t the main force of that army, but instead we are their support you see. We will be stationed so that I can-" Before he could finish, Vanessa groaned out loud.

"Then you should even have told me instead of wasting my time walking..."

Without a second thought, she left them all standing there and walked towards the direction of the battlefield.

Seeing that Wilhelm immediately started to panic.

"Miss Vanessa! Where are you going!?"

"Isn´t it obvious? I am going to fight." She said while starting stretching out of the blue.

Everyone except Danzel looked at her confused.

"But your job is to stay as my bodyguard! There is no need to take part in the battlefield!" He yelled in quick succession.

She was his biggest guarantee here that anything could happen. Losing her made him feel extremely threatened even though they were 8 kilometers far away from the battlefield.

"Hmpf, that guy there is already enough to be your bodyguard. There is no need for me over here." Vanessa said while pointing at Danzel.

"But-!!"

"See ya!"

In the next moment Vanessa put some of her strength in her legs, she leaped through the air, leaving only a small crater and dust behind them.

Wilhelm looked shocked at what just happend.

He couldn´t help but remember her word, making him turn his head towards the necromancer.

Danzel simply shrugged his shoulders at him.

Although he didn´t get many opportunities to talk with Vanessa, it was still obvious that she had a hot temper.

Wilhelm wanted to complain to Danzel, but the next moment he suddenly felt one of his communication devices activating.

Taking the device in his hand, Wilhelm activated the device.

"Who is there?" He said with a serious tone before moving away from the mercenaries.

A short moment later he put the communication back into his robe and walked back to the mercenaries.

"...I will not start my spell, look after the surroundings." Wilhelm said in a serious tone.

The four of them nodded accordingly and looked after the surroundings. Skull Claw was the only one who looked casually at the surroundings.

In the next moment, Wilhelm closed his eyes and let go of the orb that he was holding in the air.

Instead of falling to the ground as it should, the orb levitates in the air without moving an inch. As Wilhelm began his spell, both under his feet and in the middle of the orb appeared some magic circle that moved clockwise in a very slow motion.

Such a scene continued for several more seconds and suddenly the magic circle in the middle of the orb started to show some red dots.

Raising his hands above the red dots, a set of 5 other small magic circles appeared right under the red dots.

And in an instant where Wilhelm opened his eyes and raised his hands above him.

"[Arcane Heavens Spears]!" With another big magic circle appearing right above him, the magic circle gather his mana and shot what looked like a magic missile just 10 times bigger.

*Wtish!~Wtish!~Wtish!~Wtish!~Wtish!

Flying one by one, a total of 5 spears flew through the distance, at first they were not much faster than what were the normal [Magic Missiles], but the longer they flew, the faster and bigger the 5 [Arcane Heavens Spears] became.

And the direction they were headed was the same direction where the battlefield was!

It took the [Arcane Heavens Spears] only a whole minute to close the distance and fall right through the battlefield.

The only thing that Danzel and the others saw was several huge explosions appearing in the distance.

"Long distance magic..." Danzel thought slightly shocked at the spell.

By far this was the most powerful spell that he has ever seen till yet.

But after remembering the cast time and how invulnerable the caster was from performing such a spell, he shook his head.

`If one were to waste so much time preparing a single spell, they were bound to die.´ He though.

Wilhelm wasn´t done yet and started preparing another [Arcane Heavens Spears].

But once he began his spells, several figures appeared flying through the sky in the spot where the explosion occurred.

And in the next moment, those figures started flying right towards their group!
