Transmigrated Into the World of Magic and Swords-Chapter 197: One Versus Two Hundred Thousand

’I will greet her first.’

Lexie was on Ren’s left side, so Diana decided to greet her first.

"Hi, I’m Diana Meadows," Diana stopped next to Lexie and introduced herself with friendly smile. "I’m in love with Handsome and desire to be his lover like you. I hope we can be sisters."

There was no sign of awkwardness or shyness in her voice when she told Lexie about her feelings for Ren, as if it were a trivial matter.

"I’m Lexie Cardenas." Lexie responded calmly to her straightforwardness. "You need to win his heart first if you want us to be sisters."

"I’m trying my best right now." Diana responded, "Hi, city mistress."

Scarlett was focused on the war, so she only gave a small nod before returning her attention to their enemies.

"Handsome, I’ve co-" before Diana had finished her words, a thunderous sound reverberated in the entire area.

’What was that sound?’

She turned to their enemies.

"Destroy the barrier!"

"Use your strongest magic and skill!"

"Keep attacking the barrier!"

The soldiers of Nafield City and Icria City relentlessly attacked the barrier, but their efforts were futile because their strikes were too weak to destroy it.

"Hey, why are your attacks so weak? Didn’t you eat before coming here? Haha?"

"Come on! Is that the best you’ve got? Even my son hits harder than you! Aren’t you ashamed to call yourself an adult with such a weak attack? Hahaha!"

"Hey, didn’t you boast about killing me once the war broke out? So why haven’t you attacked me yet? Here, I will even drop my bow and make it easy for you to attack me! Haha."

The citizens of Nightshire City could not help but burst into waves of laughter.

The sight of them struggling to destroy the barrier was amusing, so they laughed while mocking their futile efforts.

Major Melvin was enraged at their incompetence, so he decided to step in.

"Get back," Major Melvin commanded as he used Gale Wings magic to soar into the sky.

"Return!" Xander and Joshua roared.

Their subordinates listened to the order and returned to their side.

"Hailstorm!" Right after Major Melvin’s voice faded, the dark clouds swirled, and freezing winds howled through the battlefield.

The citizens of Nightshire City stopped laughing because the phenomenon filled them with worry.

’He seems to be using powerful magic now.’

One by one, they turned to Scarlett because they wanted to know if the barrier could withstand the attack or not.

Scarlett didn’t know the answer, so she turned to Ren and asked, "Ren, do you think the barrier can withstand his attack?"

Ren didn’t answer her question immediately and ordered his system to analyze it.

[Host, Hailstorm is Tier 6 magic. It won’t be enough to break the barrier.]

"He needs more powerful magic if he wants to destroy the barrier." Ren felt relieved when he knew the barrier could withstand the attack.

"I see." Scarlett put on a relaxed expression and crossed her arms over her chest.

She did this because she wanted to tell her people that the barrier would not get destroyed by his attack.

Her people, who understood the message behind her actions, immediately regained their confidence and acted mighty once more.

Some of them even went as far as challenging Major Melvin to launch his attack immediately because their city mistress had assured them the barrier would be fine.

"These ants don’t know what they are going to face!" Darren didn’t know how strong the barrier was, so he thought Major Melvin’s attack would destroy it easily.

Major Melvin’s expression darkened.

He was furious when the citizens of Nightshire City mocked and challenged him because Hailstorm was one of her strongest magic.

’Since you want to die quickly, then I will grant your wish.’

He aimed his staff at the barrier, and in the next second, countless ice shards rained down from the dark clouds, hurtling toward it.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

The sound of hailstones crashing against the barrier and ground reverberated in the entire area.

Despite being showered by countless ice shards, they did not panic. Some of them even insulted Major Melvin because his magic could not destroy the barrier.

Unlike the citizens of Nightshire City, Major Melvin was furious.

He had previously thought that his Hailstorm magic could destroy the barrier and end the war instantly because, normally, a small city wouldn’t have a powerful barrier.

However, he finally knew that his guess was wrong because his attack failed to even put a crack in the barrier.

’How can a small city have a powerful barrier like this?’

His eyes gleamed with terrifying sharpness when he saw their smug faces.

Of course, he didn’t lose himself in anger because he knew he could not afford to lose control in war.

"What?! The barrier can withstand Major Melvin’s magic?" Xander and Joshua said in surprise.

Even though they didn’t know what Tier his magic was, they knew it was a powerful magic, so they were shocked when his attack failed to destroy the barrier.

"Damn it! How could they have such a powerful barrier? Isn’t Nightshire City just a small city?" Darren gritted his teeth in anger because this was completely different from what he had expected.

"What?! It stopped already?"

"Hey, don’t stop! Attack us again!"

"Yeah! Use your magic one more time!"

"Hey, you almost destroyed the barrier just now, so don’t give up! Give it another try!"

Their voices dripped with sarcasm, and their faces were filled with smug grins as they taunted him without fear.

Major Melvin was not provoked by their words. "You act all high and mighty, but all you do is hide behind that barrier. If you have the guts, step out and face us directly."

"That’s right! Come out and fight us head-on!" Joshua and Xander said in unison.

"Are the citizens of Nightshire City just cowards who only dare to hide behind a barrier?" Darren joined in, hoping his words would lure them out.

"Haha. It’s funny hearing that from you." They had joined forces to attack their city, so Lieutenant Lewis could not help himself from laughing because it was amusing.

"That’s right!" a red-haired man added. "You even need to join forces to attack us. Now I wonder, who is the real coward? You guys or us?"

"There is no rule stating that we can’t join forces in war," Xander made an excuse. "Blame yourself for not having allies."

"Hmph! Only cowards make excuses!" Joshua scoffed.

"Coward? Then I will play with you." Ren used the Divine Steps skill to walk in the air.

The citizens were shocked by his decision, but none of them stopped him because he was the strongest awakener in their city.

Diana walked closer to Scarlett and spoke with a worried expression, "We must not let him fight them alone. Let’s fight alongside him."

Even though she knew Ren was a powerful awakener, she was still worried. Their enemies were two hundred thousand people.

One of them was even a 4-star mage, so she could not suppress her worry when he stepped out of the barrier.

"Don’t worry. Nothing will happen to him." Scarlett believed in Ren completely because he had never lost a fight before.

"But..." Diana still could not get rid of her worry because he could lose his life in an instant out there.

"Diana, he is much more amazing than you think. If there is anyone who can create a miracle in this war, I’m sure it’s him," Lexie said as she approached them.

Diana turned to Lexie before finally shifting her gaze to Ren.

’Am I worrying too much?’

She didn’t want him to die on the battlefield because he was already a part of her future.

"I’ve come out of the barrier. Come and attack me." Ren challenged them all to fight him at once.

Xander and the others didn’t attack him immediately because they were waiting for Major Melvin to give the order.

Ren swept his gaze around before finally speaking, "Since you didn’t attack me, then I will make the first move."

"Wha...what’s going on?"

"Nighttime?"

"What kind of skill did he use? How could he turn morning into night?"

"And what is that massive moon behind him?"

"The ground turned into an emerald sea? This feeling... the water is real! It’s not an illusion!"

"How? How could he do this?"

The expression of deep shock blossomed on their faces when Ren used the Moon Rising Over the Sea skill.

They had never witnessed a skill capable of altering the world in an instant, so their hearts trembled with shock and fear.

"His skill could alter the world?" Major Melvin’s heart beat fast as he skimmed his surroundings.

’Isn’t he the same rank as me?’

Even the strongest awakener in Tuiziya Kingdom could not do this, so fear slowly crept into him because a skill that could alter the world was not an ordinary skill.

Of course, he did his best to appear calm because he was the commander of the war. If he showed even a hint of fear, his subordinates would fall into chaos instantly.

Darren’s pupils quivered and his body trembled when he swept his gaze around.

’No! This is not real! This is only an illusion!’

He squatted down and touched the water.

The moment water slipped through his fingers, he lost his balance and fell on his butt because it felt exactly like real water, not an illusion.

Like Darren, Xander and Joshua also found it hard to believe what they were seeing.

They even jumped off their horses and reached for the water because they wanted to know if it was real or not.

’It’s not an illusion!’ freewebnσvel.cѳm

At that moment, they finally realized that Ren hadn’t just changed the battlefield.

He had rewritten reality itself, and they were trapped in his world.
