Chapter 107
The whole place was elucidated with a greenish shine that was coming from Alex’s body.
Alex’s body sparkled and shone brilliantly like a sparkling diamond and hymns of holiness seem to reverberate from him.
It looked as if a holy angel descended on the ground to cure their pain.
The soldiers felt darkness seeping into their bodies and the pain which they had been suffering due to the grievous wound, started to lessen slowly.
The blood trickling down from the cuts and bruises stopped and a layer of slimy patches started to wriggle around the wounds which made the wounds start healing at an astonishing rate.
Everyone looked at Alex’s glowing body which was radiating with holiness and they were amazed to an extent that they were at a loss for words.
This was the first they have seen a warrior able to cast a large-scale healing spell which would generally be used by priests of the Church.
Alex’s face started to become as pale as a sheet of paper.
Casting large-scale healing spells took a toll on him and exhausted him a lot.
The healing spell required a large amount of mana and casting it over a wider scale is more arduous than it looks.
After a few moments, the glow from Alex subsided slowly which woke all the soldiers from their stupor.
Staring at Alex, all of them had an urge to bow down on their knees before Alex.
Alex retracted his aura, stood straight and bent his head a little, and spoke with a voice filled with gratitude”Thank you all for your hard work and sacrifice because of which Wright, as well as Nevan, was able to survive.”
They were momentarily stunned on hearing Alex’s words as it was the first time someone thanked them for their hard work and sacrifices.
“You don’t need to thank us, His Highness.”
“It’s a blessing and fortune for us to fight for our country and it is even a greater fortune for us to fight alongside you, Highness.”
“Yes, Highness!Thanks for healing us.”
Loud cheers erupted for Alex as the soldier thanked him from the bottom of those hearts.
“My warriors, you have protected the Fortress of George and you deserve the glory we have won today.”
“And you also deserve a good rest so you all can relax a little. Today’s party will be from Nevan’s side.”
“You will have a beer and roasted pork. Enjoy to your heart’s content, my boys.” Alex shouted while raising his hand.
Frank frowned and bowed his head and asked with a panicked tone”Highness, we are in the midst of war. We can’t be careless now.”
“You worry too much Frank, let these tired enjoy it a little.”
“Moreover, after getting their ass whipped I don’t think they would attack us today.”
“But..” Frank cried while looking at Christina while urging her to say something but Christina just averted her gaze trying to feign ignorance.
‘What the hell is going on? Who hosts a party in a situation where a sword is hanging on their head.’Frank cried inwardly.
“By the way, You Antwan come with me,” Alex ordered while putting his hand over Antwan’s shoulder.
“I am going to introduce you to another mad bull. I mean someone similar to you.”
“Maybe he can learn something from you,” Alex muttered while looking at Antwan with eyes of truth.
This person was quite similar to Max along with High potential and superior strength talent.
Both of these mad bulls will surely be a match made by heaven.
…….
While the situation was quite tense on the enemy side where countless calculations were going on, the soldiers from Alex’s side had already laid waste by drowning in endless drinking.
The entire floor reeked of beer and rum, and occasional fights were going on.
While Mordek and Frank were discussing the strategies of war over a drink, Max was hiding in the corner while wiping his tears after being defeated by Antwan in arm wrestling.
The soldiers from Wright and Nevan tried to mingle among themselves and blended perfectly with each other, painting a wonderful picture of brotherhood even though they had met with each other recently.
While all of them lost their senses being drunk, a certain figure who was just taking a small sip stared calmly while observing the atmosphere.
Seeing everything going well, putting on the cloak and covering his face with a veil, he sneaked out.
He arrived at a small narrow passage and saw most of them sleeping after heavy drinking, so he started to walk outside.
“Huh!!”
Hiccup!Hiccup!”
“Woh is there!”
The cloaked man heard the sound of a soldier who woke up from his slumber but seeing him still drinking, he just knocked him out and moved towards the predetermined meeting spot.
…..
DING!DING!DING!
Many men covered in dirt shoved their shovels into the ground and dug the dirt and threw it at the back.
At the front was the man who hit the rocks with his pickaxe and kept on hitting as if he had been possessed.
If one observes him, he may be lost in thought seeing his mesmerising mining skills as if this man had been born in this world for mining and the art of mining runs in his blood.
Alex, who was behind all of them, nodded in satisfaction and shouted”Good Job Hugo.”
“I will make sure to open a mining department and association for the future legendary miners of this world.”
“The title of Legendary Miner will belong to you. I don’t think there is anyone in the world who can compare your mining skill.”
“Carry on! My Legendary Miner boy.”
CLAP! CLAP!CLAP
Alex clapped and poured out praises after praises for his legendary miner.
Beside him stood Christina whose mouth was wide open seeing the scene.
Her cold and unfazed expression had already started to crumble bit by bit after meeting Alex.
She hadn’t been this surprised in her whole life as today, seeing Alex pulling tricks after tricks.
If one doesn’t know him well, one may think this guy had a bipolar personality.
One moment he would laugh, cheer and have fun while in the next instant, his bone-chilling gaze makes you shiver.
This guy was a surprise in itself. One should brace his or her heart if they stay with him otherwise one may die of a heart attack due to this guy who can pull out anything from anywhere.
Currently, Alex manipulated the earth with a spell changing its structure and they were now under the ground of the plains before the Fortress.
Alex planned to dig the ground and form a huge pit to trap enemy soldiers.
Alex, who was overseeing the whole situation with a serious expression, suddenly smiled.
Christina looked at Alex smiling and she could see that Alex was trying to contain his laughter but he was unable to do so.
“What happened? Why are you laughing.”Christina asked with a questioning gaze.
“Ohh! Nothing”
“It’s just the chess piece who was playing from both sides is making a move,” Alex spoke while staring at the mana sensor screen before him and saw a dot moving away from the fortress.
“I see,” Christiana’s words sounded which were filled with eternal coldness and anger.
“My Lady, leave it to me.”
Alex hit his chest with his right hand and spoke, giving Christina a salute”Please give this humble servant of yours a chance to prove himself and play to his heart’s content.”
Christina sighed seeing Alex acting but she could sense a brutal and chilling ruthlessness hidden behind the mask of the smile.
She was sure that the traitor was going to suffer a cruel fate.
