"Crown prince!"
Cedric knew this incident might cause major trauma in Julius' mind, he knew Julius is someone who loved his people and when he saw his people mercilessly getting shot by his own army, the amount of pressure and sadness he felt was unbearable.
"I won't forgive the empire, even if they stop this war, I won't let them get away with this," Biting his lip until it bleed, Julius grumbled under his breath.
"Everyone our defence broke, so get ready," Shouting and motivating his army, Julius took his sword and went down the stairs.
"Cedric, don't let anyone know about this incident, this should be only known by us, I don't want my people to rebel because of this"
He had a difficult face while explaining things to Cedric.
"Yes, prince,"
*Sigh
"This will former remain as a black mark in my memory,"

"Get on your horses and hold your shields, we will break through, no pity tricks, follow me," Pete and his commanders got on the horses with their sharp metal swords freely aiming for the necks of the Rapidclaws.
ραпdα Йᴏνê|(сòm) "Ahhhhh~ Follow our emperor," With battle cries filling the whole area, they advanced toward the entrance they forcefully made.
"My lord, they are pushing us back, they are trying to restore it with a temporary rock, they must have a rather skilful earth magician," Pete's commander warned.
"Weaklings!" He didn't even wait for others to react as he quickly jumped off his horse with a huge bastard sword in his hands.
(Blaster)
His sword started to break the rock which blocked the gate without even trying which motivated empire side to see their leader's power.
But Ferosa had one question in his mind,
'Why didn't he use this to break the wall before? He could have used this and prevented the death of our soldiers'
Various thoughts went through his mind but he didn't want to think that their leader is a careless fool to make such a mistake.
'Yeah, he must have his own reason'
While Ferosa was convincing himself of various things, Pete and his army entered Cedric's fortress as they kept fighting each other.
"Where's your coward leader? Come out," Pete's loud voice was enough to shake the whole area with echo.
His high body had so much strength that even his voice was multiplied by several folds when he felt an adrenaline rush.
"Just as I expected, Rapidclaws are some foolish cowards," Pete said with disgust. His tone was mocking which affected most of the kingdom soldiers to go berserk in anger.
"You tyrants!" They tried to attack him with their swords but suede ly they heard a rather familiar voice.
"Stop it! You guys are no match for him," That voice belonged to none other than Julius himself.
"Hoh, so you didn't run away like a chicken, I assume you're the leader," Carefully observing Julius' figure, Pete questioned with a high and mighty tone.
"Can I ask one question? Why are you doing this? I thought we had an agreement not to invade each other,"
Hearing Julius' question, Pete got angry as his own question got ignored rather easily by Julius.
"You don't answer a question with another question," Running in Julius' direction, Pete jumped as he waved his big bastard sword aiming at his opponent.
"Take this and die you fool," He expected Julius to go down with one of his attacks but unlike what he expected Julius carefully dodged his attack with a swift motion.
"My goodness, you really are a muscle head, I had enough of people like you,"
The place where Julius was standing before had a high pit created by Pete's bastard sword.
"Oh you're fast, but can you really dodge every single one of my attacks,"
Their fight was the main attention of this battlefield but no one had time to watch it as almost all of them were fighting with each other.
The cries and sounds of swords clashing with each other ravaged across the land.
Giving an unpleasant smell blood started to wet the soil changing its beautiful colour into something hideous and showing how cruel this battle was.
Battle without aim. Deaths without reason. Everything was useless and aimless.
Time went rather fast for everyone as no one had the space to give attention to it. After a few hours, the war started to die down but it wasn't a draw. It was a remarkable loss for one side.
"We are done here, I will admit it you were a formidable opponent but look at your army, most of them are dead and others are paralysed in fear," Pete had blood coming out of his hands as Julius managed to put a few cuts on his opponent but compared to his damage, Julius had it worse.
"You tyrant, the fool who disrupt the peace we had you will pay the price one day," Kneeling in front of Pete, Julius muttered as he didn't have the strength to fight anymore.
Even before his mind and weapon, his body gave up as he lost too much blood in this battle.
"Well, I don't care about your little rants so please die, Crown Prince of Rapidclaw kingdom,"
Pete aimed his sword at Julius' neck. He got ready to behead him in front of everyone to show his dominance but suddenly Ferosa came running toward him.
"What is it Ferosa?" Confused about why his face looked so pale, Pete questioned.
"My lord, there's a full army outside the wall, we are surrounded," His words took both Julius and Pete by surprise and confusion as none of them had any idea about what was happening.
