"Be careful you all, especially you Dexter; the Grimm commander is grudgeful; he would have made the preparations to fight with you already," General warned as we move behind the army in the invisible weave that he weaved.
The army of ten million is moving in precision and order, led by Ida, the elite with textbook fighting style.
She led the hundred unranked tyrants behind her; many of them are holding various artifacts and devices to detect the invisible mines in the ground and air.
Nearly all of them had already been detected by the General, and he destroyed them; the devices and artifacts the Tyrants are holding are just precautions unless General had missed. A well-placed mine could bring huge destruction when it is activated at the right time.
The pace of the army is neither slow nor fast, but it only took it ten minutes to reach in front of the fort of Grimm Monsters, which is nearly eight times the size of us and so magnificent that one couldn't help but feel the awe for it.
When ardon has become a strategic area, we have just made the heavy modification to it while the Grimm Monsters have built the entirely new one. It may look more magnificent than ours, but its defensive and offensive properties, only slightly better than our fort.
Still, breaching it would be extremely difficult for someone with Master class power like me; even Grandmaster would have to try hard for quite a while before they could breach it.

The armies had just appeared in front of each other when Ida attacked without any fanfare, and the whole army moved behind her.
This time her opponents are two elite Grimm Monsters; usually, two or three against our one, and we could send a human elite to help Ida, but it seemed like General had no intention, and I couldn't help but agree more.
Ida is one of the most gifted people in the fort, and the General wants to forge her in fire; and what better way to do that than make her fight in a battle where she has to snatch every breath of her from her enemies.
It is a risky move, and she could lose a life, and he might not be able to save her; seeing Grimm Grandmaster would surely interfere, but it is a risk he chooses to take.
In the war, there is no time to carefully groom the people; even the most talented people would have walked through the blood and fire if they wanted to make the great advancement. Thankfully, Ida has made advancements in these past four days, reaching the peak of Elite class.
With the four Grimm Monsters of the same level, she is in the complete defensive position, but she is not getting overwhelmed by them.
"All Elites go!"
General said softly, surprising us masters greatly; barely a minute had passed when the General had ordered all the elites in the battlefield.
Usually, the commanders of the battle wait for at least ten minutes and access the battle before releasing more forces into the battle, but it seemed like the General was no mood to follow the convection and ordered all the elites into battle, leaving behind none.
A very risky decision that could bite us back if Grimm Monsters released more elites than we could handle.
All thirty-six elite tyrant powerhouses walked flew out of the invisible veil, and just as they did, seventy-five Grimm elites appeared in the sky, and second later, both groups began to fight intensely.
Thirteen seconds after the elites have released, the first Tyrant died. It is a human unracked tyrant, directly blasted into pulp by the Apeman he was fighting. He died a swift death, barely registering any pain before exploding into the pulp.
The effect of the death appeared in war below immediately, the Grimm Monsters begin to take an edge, killing hundreds of humans by second.
It is an unbearable sight to watch, but I did and tried to carve each dying face in my memory, so when I fight, I will bring out all the rage I am feeling by each of their death, and I will get the chance soon.
Half a minute had passed since the first human's Tyrant had died when a Grimm Elite killed, the saber of human had directly pierced into its heart and burned it into ashes, not giving it a chance to put up its final defense.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIn the next four minutes, five more Grimm tyrants have killed, four unraked and one ranked while on our sides, we also lost an unranked tyrant.
"All the leaders, go!"
Only seven minutes had passed when General surprised us with another move, ordering all the leaders into the fight, bringing worried expressions on all us Masters faces as we saw the fourteen leaders flying into the battle.
It seemed like General was preparing for an all-out battle, and this was a bad thing; we did not have enough intel on the enemy to launch the all-out attack. For all we know, there might be two Grandmasters hiding inside the fort.
"General," I said, conveying my doubts in a single word; the serious expressions on the general face eased a little as he looked at all the masters. "Don't worry, I will not launch an all-out attack unless I am very sure of it," He said to us, but I am not feeling assured of it.
Regretfully, I could not do anything about it, the General is commander of the fort ardon, and even I do not have the authority or power to stop him. The only thing I could do was decline to follow his order, which I could not in current circumstances.
Hun!
I was just mulling over his decision when the Grimm Monsters did something strange that not only surprised us masters but also the General.
They have sent out the Masters; it is an extremely dramatic action from Grimm Commander, but it looks like it got provoked by the actions of our General. The only question I did not understand was why their numbers were so low.
