"I suppose this is a real siege, huh?" Rain asked. "When we recovered Tristan, the enemy didn't have the chance to defend itself from our surprise attack, and thanks to that, the siege never took place."

Branden calmed down a bit when he began to see that as a siege. Sieges were a battle that tested the patience of both sides… it wasn't weird for some of them to last months in the past. Although he looked like that, Branden knew that patience wasn't his forte… it only made sense given his age and for how long he had been working to become influential in the realm.

Still, Branden endured that since he accepted all that as a test of his willpower. Seeing his brethren, his soldiers died while he could only watch them… it sure tested his resolve. It also made him even more eager to kill all of the enemies inside the city.

"Hey, I am done here," Rain suddenly declared. "The tunnel is right below the closest area on the other side of the wall."

Only one hour had passed since the last time Branden checked with Rain, so he wondered how come he managed to cover three hundred meters of distance on such a short notice. When he went to check it, he confirmed that the tunnel truly reached the other side.

Still, Rain didn't find anything along the way that helped his work… he just worked hard, even when he didn't have mana… thanks to that, the fingers of his hands were all broken.

"You sure are reckless… just by seeing this, I feel like I am in pain," Terra said while healing Rain's hands.

"Something like this is nothing for someone who wants to fight with their fists," Rain shrugged.

The trick behind all that had been the fact that Rain used Punch Mastery. That was why his forearm guards were also quite damaged. Still, it had been worth the hassle since the Fighter's Path leveled up quite a bit alongside Basic Training and Health Bonus.

Unyielding Endurance also helped Rain quite a bit since he used it more often, and that truly increased his digging speed… it hurts his hands and fingers like a bitch, though. Rain won't be able to muster all of his strength for a while… at least not with his hands.

"Listen, we need to get rid of as many enemies as possible, and we won't be able to pull that off by staying together," Branden said. "We truly need to take some risks now. The enemies made some countermeasures against my power, so I couldn't destroy the bricks blocking the gates. We need to gain enough time on all sides and give time for our allies to climb the walls."

"You should be able to destroy the blockade if you fire a blast of pressured water in the middle of the brick for a few seconds," Rain said.

"I don't know what you are talking about, but such fine control is beyond my skills," Branden said. "Besides, I don't have time to learn anything right now."

"Can you buff weapons like Liss can?" Rain asked.

"No, I don't have much experience working with others, so…" Branden said.

"I guess Liss will do then," Rain said. "She will use her magic to buff my next attack, and then I will do the same and attack the nearest blockade."

"When you put it like that, it kind of really bothers me," Liss said while showing a complicated expression.

"I said like that because I think it would be better if you saved your mana to cover for the others," Rain explained. "Anyway, I will do the same, and that will increase the power of my next attack exponentially."

It seemed hard to believe that Rain, even with help, could destroy a block of earth that was ten meters long and five meters tall with a single attack, but he wasn't the type to say nonsense at such a time.

In any case, Branden couldn't help but think that his way of thinking was the correct one… while ultimately it was to avoid bigger problems, Rain didn't want to split up the group and put their lives at risk.

"Can your fists take that much more damage?" Branden asked. "In the worst case scenario… You will be out of commission for the rest of the battle."

"I never said that I would use my fists," Rain shrugged.

Branded nodded, and then the others did the same when he looked at them. It was about time… the enemies probably had other tribes in the middle of the city and waiting to be used, so they couldn't waste time crossing it to the other side.

When the preparations were over, Rain touched the ground above them, and then it began to fall and take the shape of a single earth sphere. Before long, they could see the blue sky above.
