"For the kingdom! Charge!"
The enemy was already on the run, but Knight Commander Elon showed no sign of stopping, still leading the charge from the very front.
Although Tec had anticipated that the humans would arrive, it all happened too quickly—within a dozen or so minutes.
In the camp, many Beastmen were even still deep in their sleep.
"You're courting death!"
Just as Knight Commander Elon was deep in the charge, a long spear suddenly appeared at his side, thrusting violently toward him. The spear glowed with a blood-red battle aura, a seeming harbinger of death.
The spear was so fast that Knight Commander Elon had no time to react. Fortunately, his mount was no ordinary beast. Sensing its master's peril, it abruptly dropped to its knees. The beast mount skidded a long way across the ground before finally coming to a halt.
In the moment his mount was skidding, Knight Commander Elon leaped off, planted his own spear into the ground, and brought himself to a stop.
