She tightened her grip on her blade and killed beasts in the core; screams filled the area. Weak-hearted individuals closed their eyes. After 5 to 6 minutes of screaming, everything turned silent.
"Where is she?" An old woman was trying to move to the front where the battle was going on, but suddenly her legs stopped. The silence made her heart heavy. She tried to hold herself up and attempted to move, but her leg was still injured. She fell to the ground and started crying, "Relinto… Relinto…"
Carciyan and Tlenion turned and saw her and quickly ran towards her to help. "Why did you bring her here?" Carciyan shouted at another woman who was holding her. "She wasn't listening and insisted on being taken to Relinto."
"Who is Relinto?" Carciyan and Tlenion looked at each other in confusion. "She is my child!" the woman shouted, crying.
"That girl…" they both remembered her when she was about to die from the beast's attack. They looked towards each other in confusion and said to the woman, "Relinto is not here; she might be inside that place," Tlenion said, pointing towards the place where they all were hiding earlier.
"She is here. I saw her disappearing in…" The lady who was with that woman said. When all eyes suddenly locked on her, she hesitated to speak. "Continue, what were you saying?" Carciyan asked her.
"I saw her in front of a strange item floating in front of her, and before it could react, she disappeared, but…" she paused for some time; it was like she was thinking about something or framing her sentence.
"I am not sure… I had the same feeling when she disappeared, but it was so very light. But now when I recall it, it feels familiar but still different in some way." "What does that mean?"
Carciyan asked her in confusion and then arrived at a logical answer after thinking briefly.
"Do you have…" but he changed his question, "I mean, does she have any older sister?" he asked, looking towards that lady, but still he was doubting his own question since that girl was around her 20s, which couldn't be the case judging by her age. But still, he asked his question anyway.
That lady yelled at him, "Do you have time for this? Just go and save my daughter, or let me go!" She burst into tears. The lady holding her supported her to sit down and tried to calm her, "Don't worry, she is strong; she will definitely survive this. Just hold on."
Carciyan was looking towards that place where everything had turned silent. "If only this stupid wall wasn't here…" "Carciyan," Tlenion said his name. "Okay, I know it was for our safety, but… but I mean, we can at least deserve a warrior's death." "Carciyan, STOP!"
Carciyan suddenly paused and looked towards Tlenion with shock and surprise. "I know what you are thinking, and I am sorry for this, but listen to me; this is important." Everyone gathered around him, and he continued.
"I think there is a chance we can save her. Although she is very powerful, her energy is depleting very fast." "But how can we save her even if she cannot fight against them?" one of them asked. "So what? We will just die? Isn't it that simple?" "What?" That person could not reply with more than a word and saw Carciyan's face and remained silent.
"Carciyan, please remain silent for some time," Tlenion said to him and then continued his conversation, "Carciyan is right; this is our only option. If we can save her, then there is a possibility that others can escape." "What?" That same person tried to say something but stopped as Carciyan was looking towards him.
Tlenion nodded his head and said, "I cannot order you to come with me, and I don't need a burden. Only those with a strong will should come with us, and if none of you want to, that is fine." He looked towards Carciyan, who was smiling, and continued, "Even if you all leave, I will still go forward, and I know I will at least not be alone."
"Done already, let's go then," Carciyan said, rubbing his hands together. "What about that wall?" Carciyan looked disappointed when the question was asked and muttered, "Okay, that wall, how could I forget that st… I mean, that beautiful wall?" He tried to smile but failed.
"It will not be a problem, right, Tlenion?" one of the people coming out from behind them said.
"On my order, charge!" Carciyan took the lead, and Tlenion followed, along with 35 to 38 Yava Viskans. The remaining moved back to safety. "I know I am a coward, but there is nothing I can do here. If I survive, maybe one day I will be able to stand to protect. Maybe one day I can also be as proud as he was."
Within 5 to 8 minutes, they reached in front of the horde of beasts, which was around 800 meters away from them. They all had a strange energy flickering within them; some had thin, some had thick energy, but among them, there was barely anyone with the same determination their comrades showed earlier.
"It's time," Carciyan raised a rusted item that was releasing bluish energy with a violet tint around its handle. "Charge!" The group roared, raising their weapons in response.
Everyone rushed towards the horde of beasts with fear in their hearts but a strong desire to push forward. "Do as we decided!" Tlenion tried to roar.
Carciyan and Tlenion were leading the left and right parts respectively, and "Wlier, are you ready?" one of his friends asked him, and he replied with, "CHARGE FROM THE CENTER!"
Carciyan swung his blade, killing beasts in his way. Within a few minutes, they had already killed 88 to 120 beasts and were still pushing forward. "Something is wrong," Tlenion was thinking but couldn't stop and sliced another beast in front of him.
"She is safe! We have found her!" Carciyan shouted. He started moving towards her, but he also had a strange feeling that was saying something was bad. "What is this feeling?" he said; his face was covered in sweat that dripped into his eyes. He closed his eyes, tried to clear them, looked around, and then resumed his walk.
"Carciyan, run!" Tlenion shouted. Carciyan looked back in confusion and saw something that froze him in his place. "What are you thinking? Run fast!" Tlenion shouted.
"What is going on?" Wlier shouted but didn't get any answer. "Sir, it looks like they are saving us to run," one of them said. "But why?" Wlier muttered in confusion, "Anyway. Everyone…" He too was frozen in his place. Screams started to fill the area, along with chaos; people tried to run, but their paths were blocked.
