Chapter 649 Rain of fire (7)
With a single breath of flames from Joan, the ones that had been blocking General Killock from reaching General Ivan moved out of the way.
With this, the stage was set for the two of them to fight.
I didn't care anymore as I said to the others on their wyverns, "Go and clear out the rest of the enemies. There's no need to care about this place anymore."
The ones that I was talking to were naturally Cecilia and the others who were also riding on wyverns.
They nodded in response before taking their wyverns to attack the enemy. Visit no(v)eLb(i)n.com for the best novel reading experience
There were a few that remained where I was and they went to clear out the rest of the Beirut Kingdom soldiers in the area.
Without a word to General Killock, I had Joan go and attack the enemies as well.
When General Killock saw Count Zwein flying off on the wyvern, he couldn't help revealing a bitter smile.
Never in his wildest dreams would he have thought that he would be in this situation, but there was no denying the facts that were in front of him. The wyverns sending out their flame breaths at their enemies was more than enough to show him that this was the case.
So General Killock chose not to question it.
He had followed Count Zwein long enough that he already knew that if he questioned it too much, it would just hurt his brain. So instead of questioning this, he chose to go with it.
Not to mention, going with this would allow him to end a grudge that had followed him for a long time.
So it could be considered a bonus.
General Killock turned to face General Ivan.
The two of them just stared at each other, but it was clear by the looks on their faces that they were feeling completely different emotions.
General Killock had a relaxed look on his face while General Ivan had a grim look on his face.
As such, he realized that Count Zwein was doing what was best for the kingdom, even if he was labeled as a mass murderer. He was doing what needed to be done, even if his reputation was destroyed.
So he couldn't go against it and could only support Count Zwein in this matter.
That meant that he couldn't allow his personal feelings to get in the way of this.
General Ivan took a deep breath and said, "Alright, let's end this."
Though he could put his pride down to ask for a surrender to save his men, it wasn't as if he could completely put his pride down. If the enemy wasn't willing to accept their surrender, there was nothing that they could do except go down fighting.
So that was what General Ivan was prepared to do.
It was not a fair fight, it only lasted a few seconds.
Even though I had flown away with Joan, I had been watching the fight between the two generals since it was Joan who was doing all the work. Once I gave the order, I just hung onto her back and watched as she slaughtered the enemies below.
I watched as General Killock parried General Ivan's sword and then cut off his head with a single slash of his sword.
After he cut off General Ivan's head, he shouted, "Your general is dead! Surrender now!"
It didn't take long for his voice to spread out across the battlefield, causing the soldiers to all fall into a daze as they looked in his direction. At the same time, many of them had lost looks in their eyes when they saw General Killock raising General Ivan's head up.
Other than a few loyal subordinates of General Ivan who wanted to take revenge, but were quickly dispatched of, the rest all dropped their weapons at the sight of this.
But even then, I didn't give the order for the wyverns to stop.
Once they stopped resisting, the slaughter went even faster.
After a while, General Killock also started attacking the enemy even though they looked like they were surrendering.
The enemy cursed at us as they said that they were surrendering, but it was a complete massacre in the end.
