Chapter 161 Descendant Number
161 Descendant Number
The whole squad all gathered at Alec's House after they got the new information passed around that Mid Tier Mages would be fighting this time, n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
they were all prepared to fight, the information about how brutal this war might be in comparison to there first Blood Moon War have shaken them up slightly the info was passed to them incase they would love to sit this one out
Cause the differencs of mid rank mages battling and low rank battling was really two different distinction but still yet Alec just saw it as a huge platform to level up all his golem's to the next Tier
But they have all agreed to participate and were not ready to back down from the fight
" Hey guys, I know we are all nervous about going into this battle as we have all heard that It won't be as easy as the last one due to the increase number of goblins attacking now and them getting used to our past strategy , but we have to stick together and fight as a team like we always do, I will be needing you all on that day "
Alec gave his speech sounding like the leader they needed to quench there nervousness
" Yeah, but what if we don't make it back?, What if those Goblin creatures are too strong and too much for us, I think we need to be prepared for the worst "
Arthur said before Agnes sent a water cannon straight at him. Making him fly away
" Don't jinx it you idiot, we would all come back! "
" We have all been training for this. We have the power and skills to win, we all even did individual training to get more aware of our combat skill and get stronger And even if some of us don't make it back, we will fight with honor and bravery, though I don't plan on letting any of us die as long as we are in the Tier 1 battlefield " Alec reassured them
" mehn... I don't know, the reading of the space gate came back and it's not looking good, there is going to be a huge number of Goblins coming out this time, what if.... What if we get separated?" Knight asked with shaky voice
" We have to stay together no matter what, we will fight as one unit, and we will protect each other's backs, Remember, we are all in this together, with my as vanguard, Arthur as protector, Agnes as master magician, Brandon as the combatant and Knight as the assassin we would be almost invincible "
Alec said making all of them smile after hearing the roles alec was sticking to there name as it made them feel there purpose seems cool
" I'm scared, guys. I don't know if I can do this, I saw the people who died the last time Alec, it was a massacre you were not in the city when the last Blood Moon occurred, it was basically wild all over the battlefield"
Agnes said with gritted teeth and Knight stood beside her while showing his support, Alec only eyed them for a second before averting his gaze and thinking about all that he has heard been at the meeting of all the Gordons Tier leaders
" We all feel scared, but we can't let fear stop us. We have to be brave and fight. And if you need help, just ask. We are all here for each other"
" I'm scared because I have spent so little time with my father, we just reunited and now am going into a war that I don't know if I might come back from due to us having to keep a straight mentality we always have to prepared for the worst , you must lead us to a perfect victory Alec I still have alot of things I want to do in life"
Brandon said as his attention seems to be somewhere else even if he was in a meeting with them... He eventually stopped talking as he stroke the saber in his hand
Even since the training with his dad Brandon's change was so visible but the whole group just ignored it hoping he would come around
" We all have someone we care about, but remember, we are doing this for them too, We are fighting to protect our loved ones, our clan, this city we grew up in and love And we will make sure to come back to them"
" What if we fail?" Arthur asked again and this time the water cannon that was sent at him was way much bigger as he was sent over to Alec's roof
" I told you don't jinx it, you bastard!!! , you won't make it." Agnes said in a fit of rage and the rest of the gangs just laughed, it was the first time they laughed so carefree in a long time, the pressure of the battle seems to be getting to them, and only Alec seems nonchalant
" Failure is not an option. We will do whatever it takes to make sure we win. And even if we fail, we will still have each other. We will always be a team no matter what and we must make sure we return back alive, that is the most important thing, do you understand? "
Alec questioned and they all responded at the same time
" In the end, we have to believe in ourselves and trust our instincts. We will fight with all our hearts, and we will come back alive. Together, we can conquer anything." Alec gave his final speech as he made his way to his golems to do his final preparations for them
And even the rest of the gangs quickly dissappear from the courtyard as they went to prepared for the final battle
....
*The Gordons patriarch House *
" how did they take the details you sent them?" the patriarch questioned Draco who was sitting across him
" Well they all have there fears but Alec still stood strong and made sure there mentality stays at the right path
am sure they are going to do great things at this Blood Moon War that is about to happen, all we have to do is pray that none of them die, if not it would affect there mentality negatively and it would also affect the clan, do we really need to keep throwing the Tier 1 and Tier 2 mages into the Blood War it was not like this before "
" hmmm I understand your point Draco before we alway wait for the mages to reach the Tier 3 rank before they participated in a middle rank Blood War but times are changing and we can't afford to hold our hands back if we want to defeat the Goblins who have a high birth rate if not our defeat would come faster, they are not like the zombies that had to evolve due to there kills, each kill can help over a hundred new born grow do you understand "
" yes "
After concluding with Draco the patriarch turned to face another person that was standing not too far from them but was resting his back on the walls in a
Darkness
" how do you feel about returning to the clan?" the patriarch asked with a sly smile on his face
" what is there to come back for, many of the elders don't really like me anyways since I followed the dark golem path, am only able to make such progress because of the love you have shown me patriarch " the person said as he came out from the dark shade as he stepped into the light
He had an excess blood lust surrounding him, on his waist laid a katana that was still in it's sheath the hilt was carved in a unique way but the material was made from bone
Even the scabbard was pure white bones, and behind his back was a huge bone axe that had runes engraved on them
" who cares what they think of you, I am the patriarch and I mean it when I say I want you to become the 8th elder that way another student of mine would become a decision maker in the clan, and I would be able to push my plan for expansion further with no restriction as our clan would be as strong as the weakest High Tier Clan in the capital "
The patriarch explained with a cold face his playful attitude could not being seen at the moment, Zack only smiled coldly in return and Draco thought about the amount of power the patriarch now holds and what his objective for all this was
There seems to be a secret about the clan that only the second generation knew, as for Draco he was a third generation descendant based on the new family tree along with Zack, while Alec was part of the fourth generation descendant.
