It was truly like an act of God. Soldiers old and young...malicious and well-meaning, mighty and weak, Every one of them lost his life equally.

Each time the light flashed, another life was ended. Those misfortunate enough to have time to think understood that Falmuth had provoked the wrath of God.

{Great sage}-"Attempt to acquire unique skill {Merciless}...successful."

-"{Merciless} whats that?"

...

Inside the Royal tent.

POV of the army...

The king was scared shitless hugging archbishop Reyheim, both had tears running down their face and shit in their pants.

King-"R-R-R-Reyheim what is this?!"

King-"What should we do?!"

Reyheim-"Fir-First we ought to-to calm down, your majesty!!"

The tent then opened and inside came Folgen with Razen.

Folgen-"King Edmaris, are you all right?!"

King-"Folgen!!"

King-"What is happening, man?!"

King-"My attendant left the tent, the sky flashed and he was dead!!"

King-"Is it magic?!"

King-"Some kind of curse?!"

Razen-"No...the entire vicinity is an anti-magic area."

Razen-"This is not anything of that sort."

Razen-"If anything, it seems to be utilizing physical methods with no connection to magicules..."

King-"Is that...Shogo?"

Razen-"It is I, Razen. I have survived through the art of possession, your majesty."

He bowed to him.

King-"Ah...yes..."

Razen-"Go on now. Folgen."

Folgen-"Leave it to me."

He then went out of the tent.

The king tried to reach Folgen with his hand.

King-"F-Folgen?! Where are you going?!"

King-"What of my safety..."

Razen-"Allow me to explain, majesty."

Razen-"It is a land of death outside. The soldier's are being slaughtered without recourse. It is very dangerous."

Razen-"Retreat will be necessary, you are not safe here."

Razen-"We are preparing a shield to allow you to escape. You will need to flee on foot."

King-"Sh-Shield?"

Razen-"From what I can see, those water droplets can kill only one person at a time."

Razen-"Our knights will form a shield your majesty, archbishop, you must escape behind them."

King-"Very well..."

Reyheim-"B-But..."

Reyheim-"How can the knights be coordinated?"
