Chapter 277 - Everyone is paying attention

The party ends and Souta’s group left after thanking Silvia and her father.

A lot of people witness the agreement between the two parties so Souta had to win this legion war no matter what.

...

In the next morning...

The legion war grew intense. A lot of B-rank adventurers emerged from the opponent’s team. It brought pressure to the deputies of the legion.

They also tried to launch an attack at the headquarters luckily, Lumilia saw their plan and managed to counter them.

The Dark Oculus Legion wasn’t as strong as the opponent’s legion. Lumilia avoided direct contact with the opponent’s main force as she used tactics to eliminate the fodder of the enemy. They were slowly cutting down the forces of the enemy.

The Dark Oculus only has eight people that have the power of the B-rank. Two of these were Jeanne and a girl named Wako. Wako was also a member of the fan club and Souta’s senior in the institute. She was rank number 78 in the ranking of the third year.

While their enemy has more than twenty B-rank adventurers at their disposal. Also, their numbers were ten times higher than the Dark Oculus Legion who’s rank was 1.

They have many disadvantages but the first attack lessened the burdens of the members in this war. It greatly reduced the forces of the enemy leaving only a few capable ones.

Souta, Lynn, and Bryan were standing on the city walls watching the battles around the city. The adventurer’s staff were all over the city to protect the civilians.

Souta took out the transmission talisman and poured his mana inside it. "What’s the situation, Lumilia?"

"Jeanne’s team is doing good. They are pushing back the enemies. Yanagi too, she’s fighting the entire count’s forces alone. The problem is with Yujin and Alice. Six B-rank cornered them and they couldn’t retreat at this moment." Lumilia said.

"I see... We’re here so you don’t need to worry. Tell me, the locations so that I could send Bryan there." Souta said to her.

Lumilia gives him the detailed location of the battles.

"Good." Souta nodded and he turned to Bryan. "Bryan it’s your time to fight. Just go in the east. If you run in that direction for five minutes you will see Alice and Yujin. Help them defeat the opponent."

"Haha, finally!! I’m looking forward to it!" Bryan laughed excitedly as he charged towards the direction that Souta pointed.

Souta looked at Bryan’s figure and smiled. He could leave those B-ranks to Bryan. If he joined forces with Alice and Yujin, then they would be able to take down those six B-ranks.

Yanagi was the greatest spear of the legion. She was handling the most difficult opponents for the legion. If she wasn’t here then their chances id winning this legion war was fifty percent.

What concerned him is that she’s too obedient. He had a bad feeling about this. He should prepare himself when he met her later.

"So, what should we do, Lynn?" Souta smiled as he glanced at Lynn who was staying beside him.

...

A lot of people were interested in the Legion War so they were watching through the projection of an orb.

They were watching and observing if the Dark Oculus Legion truly deserved its reputation.

For them, this battle was going to be the turning point of the Dark Oculus Legion. If they won then their reputation and status would skyrocket instantly in the whole kingdom. And if they lose then they wouldn’t be able to rise. They would lose their credibility and the people who trust them.

Some of the teachers of the Institute were observing the battle. They were secretly cheering for them to win. Not just them, some of the big names in the kingdom were also paying attention to this battle.

In the future, this battle will be called the Start of the Legend.

Inside a huge mansion in the Gripin city, a man was watching the projection in front of him. The man looks like he was in his thirties. He had long blue hair and blue eyes.

"What are you watching, father?" A voice came from his side.

"I’m watching the battle of your sister. She’d grown stronger." The man replied without turning his head.

"Hmm...? So, my little sister can finally stand on her own." The newly arrived man said with a faint smile on his face while glancing at the projection. "To think that their small party at that time would grow this much in just a few months to the point that they possessed twenty mana fruits. Just what did they do in these months?"

"They could even rival the noble families at this moment." The father said before he asked, "How is it?"

"I’m finally done. We could fight back this time." The man said.

...

In the Ladro Institute, the principal, Bargan, and other high-level teachers were watching the projection inside the principal’s office.

"Bargan, you’re students are at disadvantage. They wouldn’t last long." The principal said while he glancing at Bargan.

"Yeah, they are too weak to fight several B-rank at the same time. They are doing great by holding six B-ranks. That alone earned my praise." Bargan replied as he focused his eyes on the projection.

"I didn’t think that the first year this time would be this extraordinary." The principal said. "Let’s see how well they handle it."

...

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Yujin and Alice were fighting a party of B-rank adventurers. The coordination of their opponents was great and they could hardly fight back.

The only thing they could do was defend with all of their strength.

"It’s hard," Alice said as she wiped the blood on her mouth.

"They are blocking all our escape routes," Yujin said. He tightened his grip on the two swords in both of his hands.

The party composition of their enemies was incredible. They have a shielder, mage, two swordsmen, a rogue, and an archer.

"Tsk! They are too stubborn." Alice clicked her tongue and she charged towards them.

Boom!

The shielder went in front of her to intercept her attack but Alice kicked the ground to move sideways. She then thrust her spear at the blind spot of the shielder.

Clang!

She saw that one of the swordmen blocked her spear. She gathered her mana in her spear and used a combat arts.

[Dozen Piercing Strike]!!

She thrust her spear repeatedly at incredibly high speed.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The swordman tried to parry her skill but it was so fast for him. Some of her strikes landed on his body.

"Hmm...?" Alice was about to pierce the chest of the swordsman when she noticed something. She quickly stopped moving forward and jumped backward.

Swoosh!

An arrow covered in flames crashed on the ground causing a small explosion on it.

Alice looked up and saw ten giant ice spikes above her. She then raised her hand and casted a barrier spell to protect herself.

Boom!

"Alice!!" Yujin glanced at Alice.

"Don’t look away from your opponent!" The swordsman slashed his sword horizontally.

Yujin moved his feet and slightly adjusted his position. The spirit on his body was watching his opponent and telling him where’s the attack so he could avoid it based on her instruction.

’Good job, Alophy.’ He praised Alophy before he slashed his sword towards his opponents.

While exchanging blows with the swordsman, Yujin heard Alophy’s voice inside his head.

’Jin, behind!!’

He shifted his body and avoided the sword in front of him but a dagger pierced his right shoulder.

Yujin gritted his teeth and kicked the woman who stabbed his shoulder. After that, he took a distance away from the swordsman and rogue woman.

But as soon as he was five meters say from the two, dozens of flame arrows rained down in his direction.

"This is bad," Yujin said as his hands flashed and blocked all the arrows that were going to hit his vital spot.

He knew that he couldn’t block all the arrows so he only deflected those who were going to land on his vital points.

BOOM!!

A loud thunderclap echoed in the whole area.

"What’s that?" Yujin looked up and saw a ball of flames with lightning on it heading towards their direction like a falling meteor.

Alophy answered his question.

"Alice, we have a reinforcement!!" Yujin shouted with a smile. This reinforcement was enough to change the tide of this battle.

He was actually going to use his spirit power if there’s no reinforcement. Luckily, it seems that those people finished their tasks and arrived here.

"Dodge!!"

The six B-ranks quickly jumped away as the meteor-like figure crashed on the ground causing a powerful explosion that destroyed several structures around them.

BOOM!!!

The ground shook heavily as if there was an earthquake. A figure was standing in the middle of the twenty-meter diameter crater.

The figure has short spiky black hair and pitch-black pupils. He was wearing gray-colored leather armor. His weapon was a pair of purple-grade gauntlets that raised his physical attack greatly.

"I’M HERE!! So, where’s my opponent?" Bryan said as he looked around.
