Chapter 169 I Am Their Worst Nightmare [Part 3]

The moment “Ethan” stood beside Lily, the latter immediately noticed that the vibes he gave off were very different compared to when she had left him inside their tent.

Because of this, she had called out to him with great uncertainty. However, after the young man pressed his finger over his lips, she immediately understood that he indeed wasn’t the Ethan she knew.

The color of his eyes was no longer blue. Instead, it was purple.

There was also a certain air of confidence and arrogance in him, which she had never felt from Ethan before.

“Who are you?”

That was the question she asked.

And the answer she got was…

“Who am I? I am their worst nightmare.”

Lily wanted to press him for more answers, but before she could do that, their enemies had already started to charge towards their stronghold.

“Lily, you don’t have to worry about Ethan,” the blue-haired boy beside her said with a devilish smile on his face. “I’ll keep him safe. Just focus on staying alive.”

After that, chaos ensued.

The Leader of the Orcs let out one mighty roar as it raised its axe high up in the air. A moment later, the Orc Horde charged forward like a tide.

“Kill!” the General of the Three Great Tribes ordered, and their own forces surged forth.

The reason they simply charged forward was due to the fact that the Stronghold of the Allied Tribe wasn’t really a Stronghold meant for war. It was more of an outpost that their Tribe used whenever they went hunting in this particular area.

There had only been a few modifications to make it a bit more resilient for a siege, but they didn’t have enough time to make it truly impregnable.

“Take out your wand, Lily,” Ethan said as he summoned his own wand. “We will use Nubes Atra Fumus.”

Lily frowned but she still nodded her head in understanding.

“At the count of three,” Ethan stated. “Three, two, one!”

““Nubes Atra Fumus!””

A black smokescreen erupted from the tip of their wands and flew toward the approaching horde of Orcs and Humans.

It was already nighttime, and the only thing that gave their enemies vision was the light of the torches.

Orcs didn’t have night vision, so their eyesight wasn’t that good at night. The same could be said for Humans, so when the smokescreen appeared, they no longer saw anything in front of or around them.

However, that didn't matter. All they needed to do was charge forward, and they would still arrive at their destination.

At least, that was what they thought.

“Fire!” Great Chieftain Adrian and the warriors of the tribe unleashed a barrage of arrows towards the black smoke in front of them.

Ethan had told them to not aim and simply fire as many arrows as they could.

Fire as many arrows as fast as they could.

“Vocare Glaciem Vulpes!”

Lily summoned an Ice Fox, which immediately unleashed a barrage of ice bullets in front of it.

Knowing that one Ice Fox wasn’t enough, she summoned another.

The maximum number of Ice Foxes that she could summon at once was two. As the two foxes unleashed their ice spells at the enemy, so did their Master.

Ethan, on the other hand, simply pointed his wand in front of him and said.

“Magna Silentium!”

A burst of purple light erupted from the tip of his wand and flew in the direction of the smokescreen.

He aimed it at the ground that was three hundred meters away from the Stronghold, creating a ripple effect that encompassed a two-hundred-meter radius.

“Magna Silentium!”

“Magna Silentium!”

“Magna Silentium!”

Ethan repeated the spell three more times, creating a zone of complete silence in front of him. For those who were trapped inside the smokescreen, all noise completely disappeared.

While the silencing spell didn’t deal any kind of damage, its effect on the battlefield was quite profound.

Their enemies already lost their sense of sight. And now, they had lost their sense of hearing as well.

In a battlefield, especially a battlefield of this magnitude, sound and sight were important because they allowed one to hear the orders of their commanders as well as see one’s enemy.

With those two things taken from all of them, no matter how strong someone was, they would uncontrollably become disoriented out of their incapability to know what was going on around them.

Since they couldn’t hear anything, they couldn't hear the screams of their comrades who were now being bombarded by magic and long-range attacks.

Ethan, who was responsible for this absolute zone of silence sighed and looked at the bracelet on his wrist.

“Only four spells, and the magic in this thing would all be used up.” Ethan shook his head helplessly. “Oh well, at least I still have this.”

The Sea God Trident glowed faintly in his hand as if responding to his will.

The charge of their enemies had completely fallen into disarray.

Those who died in the front had fallen on the ground. Those behind them stumbled over their dead bodies, and this process would repeat over and over again, slowing their advance.

Of course, there were some who managed to break past from the smokescreen, but those Orcs and Humans would find themselves slamming face-first into the wooden wall, disorienting them for a short period of time.

Those stationed at the walls didn’t waste this opportunity and used their spears to stab their enemies to death, killing as many as they could.

Just as everything was going their way, a powerful gust of wind blew and dissipated the magically created smokescreen.

The members of the Allied Tribe gritted their teeth now that their initial advantage had disappeared. Although they had managed to kill hundreds, there were still thousands who were charging in their direction.

The corner of Ethan’s lips curled up into a smirk as the Orcs started climbing the defensive wall of the stronghold.

With a stab of his trident, the Orc’s head was pierced through as if it was made of paper.

Ethan made it look so easy, that Rex, who was standing by his side, gave him a second glance.

But the young warrior wasn’t able to allow his attention to wander any longer because their enemies had already started to come in droves. It was only a matter of time before they broke through the wooden gates and entered their stronghold.

When that happened, it would become a free-for-all all. If they were only fighting against the Three Great Tribes, there was a high chance that they would win.

But right now, their enemies had Orcs fighting alongside them.

Although they only numbered in the hundreds, their strength was a few times stronger than an ordinary Human, making them extremely deadly in close combat.

They were very sinister creatures.

However, for some reason, Rex felt that the person standing beside him was more sinister than the monsters in front of him.
