The air was heavy with tension as three enemy regiments rushed towards the army of Inanis family. They were outnumbered, with more than two men for each soldier that they had.

Still, the soldiers were brave and followed the orders that were given. The same could be said for the mercenaries as they believed in the experience of the Count. Even if one had a greater army, unless they had experience and someone skillful to command them, they would be no less than toy soldiers.

"EYAAAAAA!"

"KILL THEM!"

"KILL THE TRAITORS!"

"FOR THE COUNT!"

"FOR INANIS!" 

Various battle cries were let out by the soldiers as they rushed forward. A hundred of them were light cavalry units, fifty were heavy cavalry units, and a hundred more were infantry units that belonged to the count himself.

The rest of them were a mixed bag of mercenaries that had chosen to participate. The mercenaries fought in different manner than the soldiers and thus they had their own different position in the battle formations.

They were at the very edge of the formation so that they could split at the right moment and attack with their own method. This was done to confuse the enemy, as they would not think that soldiers would break rank for any reason.

The mercenaries often relied on their gifts for individual fights, thus it was better for them to fight a little distance from the main army. The soldiers on the other hand, could coordinate with each other to do planned attacks while also using their gifts when needing to do large damage.

Most of the soldiers here were trained to work together and would follow that tacit set.

Soon the middle regiment of the enemy reached the Inanis army and clashed.

~thud~thud~thud~

"SHIELDS LINE UP!"

"SPEAR MEN! THRUST!" 

Orders were shouted by the commander on the field and a wall of shields was created in the front. These were tower shields and were spiked on the front. These were enough to halt the advance of the cavalry of the enemy.

But they only pulled the shields out from their back at the last moment, thus a lot of horses were unable to stop in time and ended up getting impaled.

"YEAH!"

"DON\'T LET THEM LEAVE!" 

The spearmen started to thrust their spears forwards from between the gaps in the shield formation. The spears had a greater reach and managed to pierce the riders who were on the backs of horses.

Those that had managed to turn around at the last moment, and those that were lucky that their horse bore the brunt of the attack, were now injured by the spears. The fortunate ones died quickly and did not suffer, while those that were not were left lying on the ground as guttural cries came out from their throats and blood bubbled from the points where the spear entered from.

It was a fierce start to the battle, but it was just starting.

~BOOM~ BOOM~

Sound of an explosion suddenly came from the southern direction as what looked like two cannon balls soared into the sky. The strange thing was… there was no cannon on the battlefield.

"Cannon Balls incoming! Dodge!" The commander yelled.

The cannon balls were about the size of a foot ball and flew at a rather high speed. After doing an arch in the sky, it fell towards the Inanis army.

~thud~

~Crack~

~crush~

~shatter~

The two cannon balls managed to take out ten soldiers all at once and form that their power could be estimated. When the cannon balls met the soldiers, they managed to break their armor easily.

The ones at the front were pierced directly by the cannon balls, killing them instantly, but the ones at the back did not do the same but instead experienced their ribs and bones getting crushed to bits.

The tally of the soldiers killed was now the same between both parties. Even if the Inanis soldiers had managed to kill several soldiers during the charge, they still weren\'t enough to put a big enough dent.

"Argh!" 

"Save me!"

Cries of pain rang on the southern end of the army as they were the ones impacted by the cannon balls. The soldiers of the Drew territory took this opportunity to rush in and break the defensive formation of Inanis.

"Go around, go around! Don\'t let them recover!" The enemy commander could be heard shouting.

~clip~clop~clip~

The enemy cavalry changed its direction and made their way around the defensive perimeter. If the Inanis family army wanted to last long, they would have to stay in a defensive formation to prevent the enemy from killing them.

The tactic was to tire out the enemy while finding their weak link to attack. Alas, the cannon balls were enough to break that.

The enemy cavalry weaved through the infantry shield men and entered their middle.

"INNER CIRCLE SWITCH!" The commander shouted, his back covered with sweat.

The inner circle of soldiers quickly flipped around and poked their weapons at the incoming cavalry. A few of the cavalry soldiers managed to get killed under the quick attack, but their numbers were simply far too many to deal with.

"Cavalry ahead!" the commander said next.

The horses that were in the middle circle rushed in from the gaps to repel the enemy cavalry.

The sound of blades clashing could be heard as the soldiers fought. Every minute they were losing their men, but there was little they could do. 

Little did they know that their situation was only about to get worse.

~shua~

Suddenly a cold wind started to blow from the northern side. Even though it was close to winter, the snow had not yet started. The wind that was blowing was cold enough that it seemed like a blizzard was coming.

A few of the soldiers spotted something and shouted.

"THEY HAVE A GIFTED! THEY HAVE AN ICE ELEMENTAL GIFTED!" 

The commander looked in the direction and saw a man dressed in slim armor raised his blue hands above his head.
