Death… And Me Chapter 355 - Acknowledgment

Chapter 355 - Acknowledgment

More than half of the casualties on the enemy's side was thanks to the cutting edge formation. Calina's control over the six groups making both wheels was a pivotal point for it to work as well. However, the main reason for the efficiency of the cutting edge formation was, in fact, Rean's abilities. The fact that he could increase everyone's average combat power and even heal those who got injured was essential.

When the deaths on Ca.s.sen's alliance side surpa.s.sed the 30000 mark, their cultivators finally fell into complete chaos. Everyone began to retreat without even asking for orders. Gofen and the rest had a dark expression. They had the greatest advantage, both in number, position, and preparations. Yet, the enemy commander still forced them to this point.

Finally, Tolak's representative issued the order.

"Tolak Army, retreat!"

Gofen and Larael looked at Rurio straight away.

"What? Do you think this war can still be won? Look around! Every second we lose will only bring us more unnecessary deaths. It's over. Focus on getting as much Triliun ore as possible before Jialin arrives at the deposit."

With Rurio's orders, the Aerial Demon beast Army and the cultivators on the ground immediately turned around and started to retreat.

The next one was Hyinkio.

"Roren Army, Retreat!"

Soon after, he looked at Gofen and Larael.

"We tried, but it didn't work. That's how wars are played. I will prioritize reducing the losses from now on. You should do the same since you have the highest number of cultivators in the field."

Gefen and Larael felt like killing this guy. After all, it was the shift in the formation that started all of that. However, it was obvious that it was done by the other side somehow. Besides, Ca.s.sen couldn't really attack anyone at the moment.

One should remember that they were already being attacked by Jialin. If they decide to kill the Rorel and Tolak experts who came here to help, they would be making an enemy of those two countries as well. The worst-case scenario would be all three countries attacking Ca.s.sen at the same time. Gofen and Larael had to prevent that from happening at all costs.

Gofen then looked at Larael and waited for his decision. Even though he was the Army's main commander, Larael was the Ancestor of Ca.s.sen's Royal Family. Only with his consent could he end this war.

Finally, Larael gritted his teeth and nodded at Gofen.

"All forces, retreat! The main units must focus on holding Jialin Country back as the rest make their way out."

Finally, everyone stopped fighting and began to run away. Well, that was not considering the ones who already fled even before that.

Roan looked at the development from afar and gave Ka.s.sie his final order.

'Tell everyone to let the enemy go. Priority is to secure the hill and consolidate our forces. This war is our victory, so there is no need to force our way anymore. Anyway, the rest is up to you from now on.'

Roan then looked at Zuan and asked him to put him back on the ground again.

Zuan nodded as he looked at the kid. They really won this war with an overwhelming advantage. He still didn't know how the h.e.l.l Roan controlled the enemy's formation. Still, he and everyone else had many things to do, so he would leave this aside for now.

After touching the ground, Roan headed to the battlefield to check on Calina and the others.

Back on Rean's side, he looked as the enemy forces' retreated. Finally, he took a deep breath and fell back on his b.u.t.t. He really worked a lot this time to the point that his Spiritual Energy Pool was empty. At some point, he began to hold Rank Three Spirit Stones in his hand to absorb their power so that he could use his skills a few more times.

Roan's command of the Army really brought them victory. However, if Rean wasn't there to give support to the Cutting Edge Formation, it would be hard to imagine the result. After all, this elite group didn't have time to train it before. Without Rean, the enemy and friendly casualties would probably have made the formation collapse from inside out. It's not wrong to say that half the reason this war went well was because of his Light Element Skills.

"I'm dead tired! I don't want to move anymore!"

*Chick?*

Kentucky got close to him as it rubbed its head against his body. Kentucky seemed quite worried.

"Hahaha! Don't worry, I'm fine. This just means that my cultivation is too low in the end."

Finally, Rean got up and looked around. Everyone in the Cutting Edge Formation wasn't that much better either. However, he could also see the excitement in their eyes. These elites knew more than anyone else what they had just accomplished.

Malaka then came forward and laid on Calina. She was as tired as everyone else. However, Calina fell to the ground as soon as Malaka did that.

"Ah! Illia, are you okay?"

Calina bitterly smiled as she looked at her trembling hands. How could she be okay? Be it physically or mentally, she was utterly spent. Besides, as a young girl, this Cutting Edge Formation really affected her to some extent. The number of deaths she saw today was higher than all fights she had gone so far.

"Malaka, how can you be so fine?"

Malaka looked at Calina and shook her head. Fine? What fine? Just like everyone else, Malaka had blood marks all over her body. She alone probably killed over 100 enemies. Malaka then hugged Calina before saying.

"I'm not fine. I'm just trying to not think about it."

It was then that Roan appeared in the middle of their group. Other than Calina, Rean, and Malaka, no one knew where he went. He never appeared during the battle. Still, they know that he definitely hasn't fled either, so the Death Unit didn't say anything.

Roan looked at the two girls and could tell what they were thinking.

"Was it hard? It must have been. However, that's how the cultivation world works. There is absolutely no reason to feel bad for the enemies. Cultivators are selfish. If they came here, then they had their reasons and knew what could have happened. It was the same thing for you two."

A rare sincere smile appeared on his face as he patted the two girls' heads.

"You two did well. I'm proud of you."

Malaka and Calina couldn't help but tear up and cry at that point.
