Hero Of Darkness

Chapter 400 - The Intruder



Chapter 400 – The Intruder

Tap! Tap! Tap! 

Thud! Thud! Thud! 

Kahn quickly ran through the castle and directly jumped down from the highest in the gap among the spiral stairways that connected all 4 floors of his gigantic castle. 

Thud! 

Kahn landed on the ground floor and charged towards the exit of the castle as if he was in running out of time. 

Swoosh! Swoosh! 

Just then, Omega and Ronin both appeared from his sides and spoke. 

"The Warship will be ready to depart in a few minutes. Your order, master." said Omega. 

And finally after they reached towards the massive front door of the castle, Kahn saw four more of his generals waiting for him. 

"Jugram, Blackwall and Armin… you three with me!" commanded Kahn. 

"Oliver, you leave right now and transmit me the situation when you reach there. You're faster than our warships." he said. 

The next moment, Oliver spread his wings and launched himself high in the air, leaving a sonic boom as an aftermath in his wake. 

"Omega and Ronin… prepare everything needed for establishing medical care centers and supplies to treat the wounded. 

And bring a large batch of the supplies by the morning. We will need a lot based on the number of casualties." he ordered and dashed towards the warship that was prepared by hundreds of his operators who controlled the flying ship's department right under him. 

"Alarm our army and bring other warships with 2 million soldiers. This isn't an attack we can control and keep soldiers out of. Also, bring 4 warships with full ammunition. We will have to attack the enemy with all of our firepower." he relayed his final orders to Ronin and Omega as the warship finally ascended and departed for the battle zone. 

Kahn, who stood inside the main cockpit of the warship, surrounded by Blackwall, Jugram and Armin; spoke in a worried tone. 

"I hope we won't be too late. Or it will leave a big mark on my reputation and my capabilities as the Sovereign." spoke Kahn as he remembered the emergency video transmission Ronin showed him. 

In the video sent by Kassandra Mikealson who was currently serving as the temporary commander of the Thawrak region, a border on the northeast region of the Verlassen fiefdom which was also one of the six hotspots of the monster tides… was a bloodied battlefield and even she looked all alarmed while in the background, was a gigantic figure of a monster flying in the sky. 

"Let's hope the damage is salvageable at least." spoke Kahn as he prepared himself for a fierce battle. 

—————-

At this moment, in the Thawrak region of the fiefdom… was a bloodied and burning battlefield. 

The main military headquarter of this region was undergoing a battle and firing magic cannons and hundreds of flying ships that acted as the air force were fiercely launching attacks on an enormous monster whose two wide wings spanned for 1 kilometer in width alone. While the monster itself was 300 meters tall. At this moment… the outpost was under an attack by a… 

Legendary rank monster. 

BOOM!! 

Shoot!! 

Loud noises of magic guns and firing shots from the massive magic cannons filled the surroundings as the forested region around this border was now lit with wildfire. 

The main perpetrator of this battle was a flying monster enemy that even someone like Kassandra couldn't fight alone.

Unlike Kahn, she didn't have a plethora of skills. All she could do was conjure magic formations, barriers and cast elemental spells with all her attack prowess. 

Sniff!

Sniff! 

"I swear I will avenge you! I'll kill this thing myself!!" shouted Kassandra while an unstoppable stream of tears ran through her eyes. 

Her furious and murderous gaze landed on this bird-like monster that was sending waves of wind elemental blades and causing massive tornadoes after tornadoes. 

Just those wind blades cut through firm trees and the normal soldiers who fought from the ground and the flying ships had their bodies cut into pieces despite being fully armored. 

Over 100 thousand soldiers had died at this point and their shredded bodies filled the 10 kilometers of the battlefield. Hundreds of burning ships after they crashed from the attacks by this legendary monster lit up the ground, eventually causing wildfire in this once luscious green land. 

And as the commanding officer in charge, Kassandra alone stood at the front while battalions of flying ships and magic cannons set on the ground attacked this creature. 

For now… all they could do was to stop this legendary beast from entering the inner areas such as cities and populated regions. Otherwise, there'd be an unimaginable bloodbath where the common citizens will be the victims. 

At this exact second, Kassandra finally lost her patience and her enraged expression as if she suffered a great loss was easy to notice. 

And finally… she started chanting the spell that she once used in the finale of the Emperor's Chosen competition when she fought Kahn. 

FOUR HOURS LATER

Swoosh!! 

Swoosh!! 

Thousands of flying ships filled with troops of soldiers flew over the region. And in front of this flying army, was a black warship. 

The man donned in a gray longcoat with a blistering greatsword in his hand gazed at the lands below. 

These were the remains of the military outpost that was now completely destroyed. 

There was no end to the number of dead bodies of the normal soldiers. While the survivors were screaming and wailing in agony. 

Even for someone like Kahn who had his fair share of killing… this was a massacre on a completely different scale. 

One of the main reasons why he chose to hunt the legendary rank monsters on his own. Because the collateral damage and the number of lives lost were simply too much to bear. 

Just then… Oliver, who was sending him reports from afar, sent another transmission. 

A video transmission of the legendary rank flying monster that was having a clash with a one kilometer tall armored deity. 

"So she's gone that far." spoke Kahn as he let out a serious expression. 

Because at this moment… Kassandra was fighting against the legendary monster by summoning the shieldmaiden deity he too once fought against. It was none other than.. 

Valkyrie Brunhilde!
