Commentary on Chapter 31: Uprising. Part 2. Ending.
Enjoy your reading!
- Kama, you've been ignored! - laughed out loud at the chubby man, -Oh I can't, it's been a long time since I've seen such cocky kids.
The one completely ignored the fat man's words and continued to watch Eros.
Eros himself didn't pay attention to that man anymore and left the barrier, the next moment he was immediately attacked by several mages.
- Fire flow!
- Shackles of Darkness!
- Water Geyser!
As soon as Eros left the barrier, three C-rank mages immediately targeted him, thinking that he was a strong opponent and the sooner they defeated him, the better. Shackles of Darkness was a spell that created chains that completely restrained the enemy. But Eros had no trouble breaking them, causing the mage who had cast the spell on him to freeze from shock. He quickly dodged the two attacks and in the next moment, appeared right in front of them. Those didn't even have time to notice the blow, as they quickly flew away, in different directions. But Eros did not stand still and rushed back into the fight. He had enough only one blow to put the enemy out of action.
Many noticed the titan and even the two surviving A-rang mages looked at him with disdain. Eros continued to take out the C-rank mages without any effort, and when he took on the B-rank mages as well, both of them tensed up.
- Hey, I'm going to take this newbie down to the ground, he's getting a little too excited," he said with a smirk, kneading his fists.
- How about a little help, Colin? - The other mage said with a sneer.
- I can do it myself!
Colin dived sharply into the thick of the battle; he paid no attention to anyone. And if someone got in his way, they grabbed his throat and fell to the ground. Three seconds later, his fist was over Eros's head, and a bloodthirsty smile blossomed on his face. But the next moment it disappeared when he saw the grin on the titan's face, what Colin felt was only a sharp pain and everything in front of his eyes went black... From the outside, no one had time to notice anything, they only saw how Colin appeared behind Eros' back and how sharply he crashed into the ground. The titan himself continued to rapidly reduce the ranks of the enemies.
The last mage of the A-rang, frozen with shock, because he also did not notice anything, as if Colin himself decided to dive headlong into the ground and pretend to be defeated. Only six people noticed Eros' blow, Rick and the five mages watching from the palace, but they were all united in shock. For all they saw was a blurred silhouette of a hand.
When Eros had had enough of this, he looked at the last remaining A-rang mage. He noticed the titan's gaze, trembled and used a spell that quickly covered him with stone armour.
- It won't help, - the titan smiled and walked towards the mage, he was trembling, and the mages that were on the way began to disperse, opening the way directly to him. The closer Eros got to the stone mage, the more he trembled. When the titan was already standing in front of him, he was drenched in cold sweat, - Sorry mate, no offence, but it won't save you, - Eros' fist shone with white light and sharply struck him in the stomach, destroying his armour. The stone armour crumbled, revealing a mage who was bleeding from every pore, - Overdoing it, - the body fell to the ground and no longer showed signs of life. Eros didn't expect him to kill him so easily, because he was using the power he usually used in practice matches with Rick.
The next moment, several dozen mages attacked the titan at once. Eros smiled slightly as he blocked the first one's blow and grabbed his arm and threw it at three of them, knocking them to the ground. The titan easily fought off each blow, each of his opponents was slower than a turtle and their attacks did him no harm.
- Rick, do you want to have some fun? - Eros shouted with a cheerful grin as he kicked another of the undead.
- I'm sorry, I'm going to refrain today, but have fun! - holding Lily in his arms, it was more pleasant for him at the moment than fighting with sweaty, smelly men.
- Suit yourself.
Eros continued to have fun, while his enemies cried, for there was simply nothing they could do to this monster. Not five minutes later, everyone gave up. No one wanted to face this little monster and inadvertently die at his hands or become crippled.
- Well, I don't play like that... Come on fight, where is your warrior pride!
Hearing the titan's words, everyone wanted to swear at Eros, fuck pride, life is more important. That's what they all thought. That's why when the guards arrested them, no one even resisted. Once they were arrested, the survivors were given first aid until the doctors arrived.
- Eros, I--
- Go if you want to help," he interrupted Lily halfway through, "It'll be good practice, Rick you're responsible for it with your head!
- Naturally!
They walked over to one of the warriors who had already been given first aid. And saying something to one of the people around the injured man. Lily crouched down beside him and put her hands on the sword wound. Two golden magic circles lit up on her hand, bandages were removed from the wound, and right in front of the shocked onlookers, the wound began to heal. For a moment, the victim opened his eyes, and he saw the girl surrounded by a golden halo ...
- Goddess! - he whispered in awe and passed out.
- Я...? - Lily exclaimed in surprise.
- Who else would it be," Rick nodded proudly.
- Goddess, please help me too!
- Please save me, Goddess!
- Heal me, please, I'll be your loyal knight!
- That position is taken! - Rick chuckled as he watched Lily heal people, one by one.
Eros climbed onto one of the boulders nearby and watched the hustle and bustle of people trying to help the wounded. He watched as many people mourned for their dead friends... For a moment, the image of the titan came to his mind, but he quickly put it out of his mind.
Blue salutes began to explode in the sky, many warriors, even wounded ones, found the strength to stand up and shouted joyfully, looking up into the sky. After all, the blue salute, means only one thing, the end of the battle and victory.
When most of the wounded had left the battlefield, an old man of short stature approached Eros. He had a face covered with wrinkles, and large grey hammer-shaped eyebrows, with a scar on the left side of his face. He wore a dark blue cap, which covered his head and most of his forehead, and a light coloured dressing gown, underneath a brown cape with a golden pattern on the edges, and a plain pair of shoes. Behind the old man, stood ten heavily armed knights.
- Hello, young man, I am Minister of Defence Darton, and on behalf of his highness, I would like to thank you for your help, as well as invite you and your companions to the palace as guests.- I'm sorry, but I have nothing to thank you for, because it would have ended with your victory," Eros said with a smile.
- No," Darton shook his head and continued in a more serious voice, "If you had not joined the battle, there would have been many more casualties.
- Hm... Why didn't the five mages who were in the palace join the fight? - Eros asked in surprise, -With their power it would not have taken them five minutes to destroy all the opponents.
Darton looked at Eros in surprise.
- Did you see them?
- Of course, they are even now watching everything.
- That's how it is, - the old man frowned and looked towards the castle, but couldn't see anything, - Here is the invitation, tomorrow at twelve o'clock, please don't be late.
- All right, thank you!
With a nod he turned round and followed towards the palace.
-Hey, Eros, who was that? - Lily and Rick came up to him.
The girl was very tired, but satisfied that she was able to help at least a little. She had healed almost thirty people and was able to stabilise twenty-two others who were badly wounded and on the verge of death.
- It's no big deal," he waved his hand and handed them the invitation.
With each word they read, their eyes grew wider and wider.
- We are invited to the palace! - The girl exclaimed joyfully, clutching the invitation to her chest, -What to wear!
- You'll decide when we get to the hotel, but now you have work to do.
- Okay..." she pouted and continued to walk around the wounded soldiers, followed by Rick.
"I thought we were just going to be thanked with a couple of tens of thousands of jewels and shown the way out... No, silly, they probably want to recruit us, since they saw our abilities, especially mine and Lily's. Still, I should have restrained myself!"- Eros thought with annoyance as he looked towards the palace, but the five of them were already gone, "Alright, let Lily continue her practice for now, while I take a look around the battlefield, maybe I'll find something interesting..."
