Adopted Soldier

Chapter 338

It has been one year and four months since the war started and the Granado Empire was still on the winning side, even with the Southern Union and Berdonia teaming up . Yet a sudden turnig point happened which shook the Empire, Upon the death of Lyner, and the disappearance of Rika Saunter, Arthur Glory was the only remaining SS rank merc, and this finally gave the two nations a chance to turn the tables .

The Granado which was on an unstoppable offensive, was finally forced into a defensive state . Losing Rika Saunter was a huge blow to the Empire, since they Empire believed that they needed at least two Generals to match up with Arthur Glory, and they needed at least four to kill him . Yet at this point in time the Granado Empire has only five Generals left, using all the Generals to kill one man, was a huge gamble .

It was possible that Arthur Glory could win against the five, it was also possible that even if the five win against Arthur they would lose most of the generals . That’s just how ridiculous an existence the SS ranks were .

It was at this moment when everyone thought that the Granado Empire wouldn’t take such a huge gamble by sending all their Generals to face Arthur Glory, that the Granado did the exact opposite of what everyone thought .

The five remaining Generals of the Empire took to battle . The two sides had battled for days, until finally only two of them remained . On the side of the Granado Empire was the old man Tang Jing who had small bruises all over his body . While on the other side was Arthur Glory who had bullet wounds, knife wounds, and a missing finger .

If someone saw the two they would be shocked to see two old grandpas fighting to the death . Yet it was undeniable that the two old men were two of the strongest of each side .

"As expected of an SS rank merc, being able to kill four of the Generals . Yet I’m also quite disappointed, I thought you would be as strong as Lyner, but looks like the rumors were true, you are indeed the weakest of the SS rank . If it was Lyner with that cocky grin of his, he would have won while sustaining less injuries . "

Old man Tang said all this with a bit of nostalgia in his eyes . Even though Lyner was his most hated enemy, he also treated the young man as a rival to be beaten . Arthur seeing how much Tang Jing respected Lyner made him smile .

"I’m sorry for disappoint you, if we were a bit younger I guess we would have had a battle worth remembering . Yet even people as powerful as us, cannot fight the unforgivable hand of time . "

"No matter, this is fate as well . Even if I win in this battle, I guess I would no longer be able to fight . " Tang Jing said with a bit of melancholy .

"That’s alright, our generation has long died," Arthur happily replied .

"Don’t lump me together with you . I’m not as old as you, in fact base on your age you could be my great-grandfather . "

The two old men started to chuckle as if they were old friends .

"It is a shame we are enemies, but still it was a pleasure to have this battle with you . May we meet again in Valhalla . " Tang Jing said the last line with a joyous expression . Ever since his son died he felt absolute hatred for Lyner, but after Lyner died he only felt emptiness inside . Yet now facing Arthur Glory he felt excited, as if the bygone days of his youth returned to him .

"May we meet again in Valhalla . " After Arthur said those words the two old men suddenly bursted into action .

After a short battle, Arthur was able to pierce through Jing’s stomach, while Jing was able to stab a knife into Arthur’s chest reaching his heart . The two old man smiled at each other and fell at the same time .

Tang Jing whose consciousness was slowly fading away, saw an illusion of what looks to be a Valkyrie with the same face as his wife when she was young . ’I see you came to bring me to Valhalla . ’ Those were Tang Jing’s final thoughts as he died, with a satisfied expression on his face .

. . .

Arthur Glory who was slowly dying had seen his whole life flash before his very eyes, as if he was watching a movie . The moment he reached the end, Arthur knew that he had only one regret . He wasn’t able to fight Lyner in an all out battle using all their trump cards .

’Well it doesn’t matter, I’m sure I’ll meet that battle crazed guy in Valhalla . ’ When Arthur had that thought he finally felt that he was nearing death . ’I guess it’s all up to the younger generation now, to seek the future . ’

Arthur then remembered his haughty disciple and smiled . There and then the two strongest forces of both sides have lost their lives .
