I Try To Enjoy My Life But This Woman Keep Calling Me Villain-Chapter 74: Charles’ Last Attack

I slam my staff on the ground and create sharp tree roots from the wall to stab the last group of traitors on the wall. We manage to clean the left side of the wall out of the traitors that try to kill us. We manage to kill them before they can do much damage to my unit.

The other unit is not so fortunate. If not for me constantly releasing an AOE healing spell, more would be dead. Sadly, I have a range limit, and even when I was already casting [Ultimate Magic: Star of the Beginning], it was not enough, as my ultimate magic lasted only twenty seconds long.

It takes us almost half an hour before we manage to retake control of the fortress. Now I can focus on the battlefield outside the wall.

"Sonia, take care of the one who is injured. Jonathan, take a secret stash of potions in my personal tent. You should know which one I’m talking about. Jullian goes and gathers the boys. Take the back doors, use the invisibility ring and flight necklace, and go to the enemy backline. We need to stop those trebuchets. We cannot hold it much longer."

I can see the mages on the highest tower panting while maintaining the barrier to block the massive stone thrown at us.

"Yes, young master!"

"Yes, Father!"

"Understood, my lord!"

With the three of them following my order, I look down and blink for a few seconds when I see Wolfram losing half of his face. I quickly take out a [Pendant of Flight] and fly near him. Seven cards come out of my Star Globe, and the card with a symbol of love flies above Wolfram.

"[Canis Major: Mirzam]!"

[Canis Major Mirzam] is one of the few burst healing from the [Astrologian] class. Not only does burst healing, but it also cleanses minor debuffs like bleeding and exhaust. I can see his body recover as he takes the axe I gave him a day before the battle.

He looks at me and shouts.

"Thanks, lad!"

And he returns on his hunt. What with him and his people? Even the ones who get stabbed to death have that grin on their face. It is as if they were not afraid of death. I shake my head and decide to focus on healing the people holding the army back.

I fly above them and take a deep breath.

"[Aurora]! [Yggdrasil]!"

Two healing spells activate, and I can see my men get a second wind to fight the enemy. I can even see Jullian and his men already take off to wreak havoc in the enemy backline.

I snap from my thoughts and quickly look at the distance when I feel a spike of mana coming from the enemy backline. I focus on one location and see an old man create three massive magic circles underneath him and above him.

I widen my eyes when I see three creatures from that magic circle appear. A summoner?! On this battlefield?!

I quickly get back to the wall and take a deep breath. I stab my staff on the ground and let the Star Globe float above me while the seven cards circle the Star Globe. I clap my hand and say.

"[Guardians of Nature]!"

After I say that, four magic circles appear above me, and a second later, four creatures come out of the magic circle. They are the four beasts that guard the four guardians of the cardinal directions, but there is one more thing I can do with this spell.

"[Four Elemental Boost]! [Four Season Blessing]!"

I use buff spells to boost the four beasts. I can see them get larger, and the light surrounding them gets brighter. Those two spells take a good chunk of my mana and almost deplete my mana reserve.

I take a vial filled with purple liquid from my inventory and drink all of them. I can feel my mana refilled, and I prepare to cast one more spell. This spell needs half of my mana because of how useful this spell is.

"[Forbidden Spell: The Fifth Auspicious Beast: Qilin]"

The four beasts shine brighter and create a circle with their light. A few seconds later, something comes out of the magic circle they create. It was a creature with the head and tail of a dragon. It has a horse’s body, but yellow dragon scales cover the entire body. It has the legs of an ox.

It releases a roar that sounds like a dragon, but I can feel the difference between the Azure Dragon and the Qilin.

I stagger a little and am about to fall, but Jonathan catches me before I can fall. I can see him have a worried expression.

"My lord! Are you okay?!"

"I-I’m fine, Jonathan."

I look at the five creatures and say.

"Attack."

After hearing them roar in acknowledgment, I look at Jonathan and say.

"Can you take me inside the tower? I need to sit down."

"Yes. Hold on, my lord."

He takes me inside the tower, where he lets me lean on the wall of the tower.

"Jonathan, I need you to feed me these potions, okay? One by one. I need to maintain these summons. Here. Once the sand all falls down, feed me one of the potions."

I give him a crate full of mana potions and a five-minute hourglass.

"Yes, my lord! I will make sure to take care of you."

I give him a small smile and pat his head.

"Thank you, Jonathan. You are a good kid."

He shakes his head and says.

"No. This is the least thing I can do for what you have done to me, my lord. No short of my life is worth what you have done to me."

I can only smile at him as I focus on meditating to recover my mana. There is one weakness of summoning Qilin. It takes a good chunk of my mana to make sure it stays in the real world. I did not use it much because my guild members preferred me to do the healing and cleansing rather than damage.

However, I use this spell when I’m hunting alone or when I’m farming large amounts of mobs. [Qilin] is good at hunting large numbers of monsters, after all.

I will make sure only to let [Qilin] stay a minute or five at maximum in this world because there will be too many people die without my healing as Sonia is not good enough to heal an army.

|3rd POV|

Charles can only see the five beasts summoned by Gwyndolin in anger. All of his plans get defeated not because of a clever plan or luck. No. His plan gets destroyed by overwhelming power.

The Azure Dragon, Vermillion Bird, White Tiger, Black Tortoise, and Qilin wreak havoc throughout the battlefield. He can see the giant horse-like creature taking on the trio of creatures Yorlan summoned.

Gwyndolin overestimates his opponent. He thought that because of the size of the summoned creature, it would be a high-level creature, but this was the wrong conception. He still thinks like he is still in the Second Life, where the bigger the summoned creature, the higher level it is.

In this situation, Qilin alone can take care of the three creatures leaving the four others to kill the backline of the enemy. What makes matters worse for Charles and his army, Ophiuchus return, and Charles knows that Elizabeth’s sacrifice results in nothing.

"My lord! My lord!"

"What is it, now?!"

"The flying squad arrived, my lord! They are now coming here!"

Charles grits his teeth and decides that it is time to use his talent. He gets up from his commander’s seat and takes his weapon, a spear with a pattern of a snake around it.

"My lord?"

Charles looks at his right-hand man, who followed him from the beginning: his trusted friend and most loyal ally.

"Harris, I will use my talent. I will use them to the fullest."

"What?! You can’t do that, my lord! You fall unconscious for days if you use it!"

"I know. I know that this day will come. The day that I finally die."

"My lord... You..."

"Harris. Go and take my personal army. Go and take them back home. This is my final command as your lord and general. After you are done, protect my daughter and wife. They are my most precious thing in this world."

"You can’t just order me like this, Charles! We made a promise! We will spend our last life on the battlefield together. We promise that we will die on the battlefield together as brothers."

Charles looks at his brother in all but blood and says.

"I know. I know that I’m asking you something outrageous but please... Please, brother."

Harris looks at Charles for a few seconds before screaming to the sky. He continues to scream for a few seconds and looks at the old lord.

"Fine. Fine. I will make sure your daughter will be a great person. I will make sure the young lady grows into a beautiful flower, a flower full of thorns that make anyone kneel under her heels."

"Good. Now go." 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

Harris looks at his brother one last time and gives an order to Charles’ unit, now his, to retreat.

Seeing his brother gone, Charles takes a deep breath and takes a stance. He takes a throwing stance.

Charles has a talent called [Hydra] not because it gives him the power of a Hydra but because it gives him nine powers, just like the head of Hydra. There are defensive power, support power, and offensive power in this package.

Among them is the most powerful power that lets him imbue his weapon with destructive power, even more powerful than Barlan’s talent. Not only that, but it also has anti-regeneration spells that make sure his enemy stays dead.

The only downside, it makes him go unconscious.

"O Lord of Destruction, bring despair and destruction to my enemy!"

Charles already knows the location of Gwyn because of Harris’ talent. He aims it and throws his spear.

"Take this!"

Feeling danger coming, the Azure Dragon, the closest creature to Gwyn, flew at the incoming attack, but it was not enough to block the attack. The spear easily pierces through the summoned creature and kills it. However, it is enough to alert Gwyn, who takes Jonathan with his right arm and jumps away.

However, he did not go unscathed.

"Heh. I cannot take your life, but I can take your left hand. That is good enough for me."

Charles smiles before darkness claims him. The last thing he hears is a roar of fury coming from Gwyn’s summoned creatures.
