บท 227: Agreement

Ramiel could barely hold his mace in exhaustion. He has been fighting with Gustavo for a long time and his world essence was almost depleted. He had already discarded his shield since it was becoming cumbersome for him to hold two heavy weapons. 

At this moment, he was supporting himself by putting his weight on his mace. Behind his seemingly impenetrable armor was his bruised body. It wasn't serious, but the more time passes, the more his mobility decreased. 

Gustavo saw through Ramiel's weakness, but he wasn't any better. After trying to penetrate the other party's defenses, he used up a lot of his world essence. 

Suddenly, he heard a signal horn from their camp. 

"A signal to retreat?" Gustavo muttered in confusion. They were slowly overwhelming the enemies with their numbers so why did the Grand General order them to retreat?
