Round 2 (2)

- - Julius's POV - -
I greeted the enemy troops on the battlements.
The morale of the Roserun Kingdom's army was 92, but thanks to the bracelet found in the treasury, Yurasia's command increased to 97, and the morale of the Kingdom's army was raised by 2.
The princess was leading the Royal Army again this time, commanding the troops at the front.
"Release the arrows! Shoot as many arrows as you can and don't forget the stones!" <Princess Yurasia>
Each commander shouted according to Yurasia's orders, and the arrows were fired at once.
Lunan's reinforcements followed suit and the situation was in our favor.
The training level of both the Royal Army of Roserun and Lunan's reinforcements was at a terrible level.
However, the siege battle was a great weapon that offset the low level of training.
With the large shield of the castle walls and high morale, we have a good chance to win.
The battle between the [29,443 Allied Forces] and [Bridget 35,500 army] began.
A battle in which my army had an overwhelming advantage!
The enemy was met with a rain of arrows, their screams spreading across the land.
______________________________________
[Allied Forces – 29,443]
[Bridget's Royal Army – 34,230]

Bridget lost about 1,000 soldiers in that attack.
The enemy used their sacrifice as a springboard to build ladders on the city walls.
The more they did so, the more we kept firing arrows and showered the enemy troops coming up the ladder with stones.

[Allied forces – 29,300]
[Bridget's Royal Army – 32,110]

By the time the arrows had run out, the numbers of the enemy soldiers dwindled even further.
But as soon as the support of the arrows disappeared, the number of enemy troops coming up the ladders increased.
Meanwhile, the allied forces also desperately tried to stop the enemy soldiers.
They threw down stones and pushed them down with spears and swords to prevent them from advancing on the castle walls.
This battle continued for more than two hours.
I, Yurasia, and Zeff mercilessly cut down any enemy that came up the ladder with a single blow.
From the top of the castle, I could see at a glance the situation of the Bridget garrison.
There was the King of Bridget in his fancy armour, with the flag of the Bridget Kingdom fluttering in the air.
I only needed him to be in my field of vision to check his abilities.
But when I tried to use [Crush], I got a message saying that I couldn't use it because he was too far away.

[Age: 54]
[Power Level: 93]
[Intelligence: 69]
[Command: 98]
______________________________________
98 command, consisting of strong charisma and a domineering leadership.
He's the opposite of Yurasia, who uses charm and friendliness to keep her soldiers in line.
He also has a high power level, however, I've raised my power level again and I'm fully capable of fighting him.
The problem was the man next to him.

[Pohorizen]
[Age: 29]
[Martial force: 95]
[Intelligence: 4]
[Command: 5]
______________________________________
He was bigger than Errante and had red hair like a beast.
His intelligence and command were worse than a child's.
If I had to guess from the ability values, that's why they are using him as the king's bodyguard.
So, the only one left was the skinny guy approaching the castle.
He was probably the reason why the Bridget king regained his composure.

[Katekin Ganev]
[Age: 45]
[Martial force: 98]
[Intelligence: 40]
[Command: 74]
______________________________________
As he had the title "Good Sword", his martial force was unusually high.
Yurasia considered him the strongest of the three swordsmen.
With 98 power level he was the most problematic existence in this siege.
Ganev started to climb up the ladder.
Boutor's plan would be for him to go up to the castle walls and create chaos to make it easier for the soldiers to advance.
It was obvious, but it was a tricky strategy if the person who would carry it out was this strong.
"Pour the boiling oil and throw the stones!" <Count Fihatri>
Fihatri gave orders to the soldiers as I looked at him.
"Julius! That's the one they call the 'Good Sword', Ganev!" <Princess Yurasia>
Yurasia shouted and tightened the grip on Rossade.
After all, this battle would be decided by whether or not we could stop Ganev.
I was not sure about this at all, because when I checked his ability, he was much stronger than I expected.
Still, I couldn't stop fighting; it was a mountain we had to cross!
Not intending to be bathed in the boiling hot oil, Ganev thrust his sword into a gap in the castle wall and released mana through it, creating a strong reaction force that sent him soaring into the sky.
However, in that state, he would be defeated by gravity and fall to the ground.
Since humans were not birds, it was impossible for him to land where he wanted.
Then, Ganev swung his sword in the air and released his mana.
Using the powerful blast of mana from his sword as a propulsion force, he adjusted his direction and landed on top of the castle wall.
