The Goddess Of War

Chapter 229 - The Battle On The Edge of the Forest

After finishing off the 20 soldiers, Anna stopped her action and sat quietly on the horse, watching the troops from the quiet-looking Eclovar kingdom stare at her.

Among the thousands of soldiers, there was a large man who rode at the very front of the troops with a slightly conspicuous display of war clothes.

Anna's gaze finally stopped on the man, who was none other than one of the Eclovar kingdom's warlords, who was assigned to pick up the warden and arrest the abductors.

The long-haired man also looked at Anna, yet with a cold gaze that was as cold as his facial expression.

As one of the best warlords of the Eclovar kingdom who had participated in dozens of large-scale wars, he was used to analyze enemy troops very well.

Moreover, his opponent this time was only a young girl. He already knew that his opponent was indeed very strong in a battle that relied on physical and spear fighting techniques. However, the girl did not have a very important thing in her. Mana Energy.

No matter how strong a person was, he would be unable to win a fight if facing an opponent who possessed powerful Mana energy, like himself.

The warlord remembered, the girl could not even hide her footprints at all because she did not have the Mana energy to refine her footsteps in escaping. If not, they may have trouble finding it.

In fact, the trail was originally made by Anna deliberately to pit the Eclovar royal army and the Trovan tribe. If he knew the end would be like this, he would definitely not do it.

°°°

"If you turn yourself in well, I'll consider pardoning your life even if you've killed dozens of my troops." Said the warlord with his heavy and authoritative voice, as well as his now threatening gaze.

Ignoring the words of the ferocious-looking man, Anna asked him instead.

"I want to know. Why do you want to arrest me? Didn't you guys get it back?" asked Anna, who then looked at the pale-faced man who was still fainting on the horse of a soldier.

"You have kidnapped the royal jailer Eclovar and made a frenzy, also escaped from the prison."

Anna grunts.

"The soldiers from your kingdom caught me wrongly. I was walking around and didn't know why I should be arrested."

"I've read the report. You've broken the rules. You entered the territory of the Eclovar kingdom without having any identity."

The commander actually wanted to mention about Anna who claimed to be from the forest of the western region and came from the Trovan tribe, but he undo it. He knew the report the 4 haughty-looking men gave was misinformation, after he saw Anna's appearance. The man knew that in the Trovan tribe there were only Werewolves and half-monkeys.

And again, the chieftain had admitted himself that he did not know Anna and suspected that the girl was going to complain.

Anna took a deep breath and turned to the top of the tree that was located a little far away from them, where the god Ogun was.

'Why is he staying there? Does he not want to help me solve this problem?'

Anna was somewhat doubtful, whether she should go back to the Eclovar kingdom or fight them here alone.

His job is to find the goddess Lyn. If he returns to the kingdom and is framed, he fears a rampage there and makes himself a hunt for the royal army that will eventually hinder the search for the goddess Lyn.

Anna looked back at the warlord. He had wanted to find the god Ogun and ask for his opinion on this situation. But, after thinking about it again, he should have more right to make a decision because he entrusted the goddess Ann to lead their small team.

"I'm not going to follow you. I have a very important affair and have no time to go with you."

"In that case, I'll just bring your dead body, '" the warlord said, responding.

"..."

The man did not respond and directly drew his sword. Simultaneously, the whistling sound of wind emanating from his magic energy rang out very loudly along with the swinging motion of the sword he was pointing directly at Anna.

"Take his head." Said the warlord to the two aides who were behind him.

However, just as the two aides were about to leave, a very surprising thing happened.

Wushhh... Crackkkk...!

The body of the warlord flew from above his horse, carried by a long spear that stuck in his head.

Soon, the young lady who should have died was hit by the warlord's long-range magic attack, replacing the warlord was sitting on his horse.

The two aides even shrieked and pulled the reins of their horses very strongly in shock at Anna's ghost-like appearance.

"You want to bring my body? It's the wrong idea!" Umpat Anna, while staring at the body of the warlord who was still flying away before finally falling hit the troops behind there.

"Let's go over here" said Anna, staring at the two pale-faced men in turn. "If you insist on taking me, I don't know if you can all go home safely."

Although he was shocked and horrified by what had just happened, the two aides were not soldiers who had just joined the royal military yesterday afternoon.

There have been many wars that they have been through. The leader may die, but the fighting spirit defends the self-esteem of the kingdom.

If they returned without successfully catching a fugitive who was already in sight like this, of course they would get a huge embarrassment.

The Werewolves who witnessed this event from the edge of the forest also probably would not be afraid of the soldiers of the Eclovar kingdom if they escaped.

The two aides finally went to approach the troops behind.

After doing a brief directive on the troops, the rows of cavalry soldiers that were previously neatly lined up, quickly began to move into a formation.

The two aides were confident that, if they could continuously attack with magic power, their opponents would definitely be overwhelmed and toppled.

"We are ten thousand and he is alone! Will he be able to withstand all our strength?! Attack her!!!" exclaimed one of the most senior-ranking aides, while pointing his sword at Anna.

Just then, a roar of excited cheers rang out from the screams of the troops, before they finally began to attack.

•••

Seeing what the soldiers were doing, Anna clicked, looking back at the Ogun god who was sitting quietly on top of the tree, watching what happened.

"Does he want to see how I deal with this? He knows right, if I activate the Mana energy then the warlord gods could come and the mission would be chaotic?"

While Anna was still grumbling on the warlord's horse, hundreds of arrows containing magic energy came pouring down on her.

With a very quick movement, Anna took a small object from the end of her arm and developed it into a long, shiny black spear.

Cranks... Cranks... Cranks... Cranks...

Anna twirled her spear to fend off the rain of arrows coming from the sky.

Meanwhile, from the front, the sparkle of the ice blades that were struck by the moonlight came no less than the arrows from the sky.

Anna twirled her spear very quickly to tackle the attacks coming from these two different directions.
