Evolution: Conqueror - Chapter 107
Some time earlier that day,
Shammob Dregu battlefront,
Urim’s POV,
Both sides kept glaring at each other but it was obvious the Shammob chieftain wasn’t particularly excited about the fight, they had a truce or should I say a Non aggressive pact with the Dregu for some reason, but suddenly their food storage suddenly got burnt with all evidence pointing at the Dregu clan and on coming here, He met the Dregu clan rallied and ready for war, right at his border.
Even I could tell that, they were trying to lure them out or perhaps something happened in the Dregu clan as well and there is someone who would profit from this battle besides us.
While I was thinking, a tragic wail brought me out of my thoughts.
I don’t know what happened but a Tomahawk was sticking out of a shammob orc’s head as he fell.
“What happened?” I blurted out unconsciously as the two clans charged at each other, the Shammob’s Chief remained unmoved besides giving the initial order and Dregu’s side could be seen roaring in excitement, they looked at each other with differing expressions.
The young Dregu chief was arrogantly taunted the Old shammob leader, but the latter remained unmoved.
‘Why is he not moving or responding to the young one’s taunts?’ I began to think when a thought came to mind, ‘From the way Bhok described his father, he’s not one to agree to a truce in the first place, so the only possibility for this, is…He’s injured!’.
Him sitting on the throne isn’t to show anything grand, it’s to cover his weakness.
I turn to Moz with a grim expression,”can you sneak into the Shammob clan to get the treasure?”.
“It’s possible but, this isn’t what the Chief ordered”.
Hearing her words, I calmed down again and looked at the battlefield, both sides were tearing each other apart, “I know but everything has shifted from what brother planned, we must not fail”.
“So trust me, if anything happens…I’ll bear the consequences” She looks at me without saying anything.
After a few seconds, she finally says, “Fine but I didn’t get the description of the place.”
“Easy, take Bhok with you…so he can explain everything to you, if he lies, just kill him”I say casually while looking at Bhok, who in turn flinched at my words.
Moz pats her wolf’s sides and gestured for Bhok to come over before saying, “Be careful”.
The others sent her off with a nod before she went into stealth.
“Now…we fight” I say with a grin, excitement could be seen on everyone’s face and I couldn’t help shouting, “ATTACK”.
The sound of my voice and the wolves dashing forward was lost in the chaotic battlefield, Orc roared in pain and anger clutching their grievous wounds as more warriors fought their way into the opposing army. Shammob’s Chief sat defiantly in the face of such ferocious battle with his proud back straight. “Kill!” An Elite warrior of Dregu ordered suddenly as the goblins unleashed waves of small projectiles, rocks, daggers and so on, causing chaos. The sun beat down on everything furiously as the heat wave continued unaffected at such chaos, the battle continued, unaware of our charge.
We rushed forward and soon became visible to the enemies, I could see shock, fear, confusion as it spread across their faces. The Dregu chief had the most interesting facial expression…
Just when we were about to come in contact with the enemy, everything went blank…!

Torrelsav’s POV,
‘Urim is a genius, I never thought that two brothers would have such great minds’ I couldn’t help thinking as I eyed my daughters, both were interested in each of these brothers and I will make it happen.
Urim spoke briefly with Moz and he seemed to have thought of something, so I approached them.
“Easy, take Bhok with you…so he can explain everything to you, if he lies, just kill him” Urim says casually while trying to calm his wolf, Moz on the other hand looks at me for a second before sighing.
I watched as Bhok ran over warily before mounting the wolf as Moz says to Urim from the side, “Be careful”.
While we watched her leave, Urim looks at the battlefield before grinning at me, “Now…we fight”, excitement, that’s what his expression made me feel, he placed himself in front of us and ordered, “ATTACK”.
Everyone rode after him, I could feel Gilgar’s hands tighten around my waist and I couldn’t help laughing.
“Hmph!” She snorts, probably aware that I noticed her fear, this only made me laugh further.
The sound of the Battlefield covered and enveloped the surrounding areas, just at about seventy meters away from the fight, Urim suddenly clutches his head and fell from his wolf, shocking everyone.
Gilgar didn’t even wait for me to stop when she jumped off my mount, She ran to in filled with panic.
There’s no time to observe the situation as the Dregu clan dispatched a few warriors along with their Chief, they wanted to settle us quickly.
“Get ready to fight” My voice and Largash’s voice sounded out at the same time, I couldn’t help looking at her in surprise. She calmly nodded and pulled out the cross bow from behind her, as she came down from Raal’s wolf.
Everyone was battle ready by the time enemy arrived. No signs of Urim recovering soon but it seems He had become the target of the Dregu Chief.
I pulled up my spear as Torug advised and charged ahead with Raal and a few others, Largash was guarding Gilgar as she chanted a few healing spells.
Our momentum was already broken and a few of our warriors were still in shock,Unfortunately we could only fight like this.
those of us with spears, were in front as we stabbed our approaching aggressors. an axe came flying towards me and I could only defend with the spear, this in turn left it broken.
“Dismount!! let the wolves run free!!” I order and immediately there was results, the attacking army was in chaos and we had breathing space, Gel, my wolf fought by my side, she viciously pounced on an enemy while ripping it’s throat out.
I used the chance to unleash my tomahawks while using my innate skill, <Battle craze> as I charged out in a frenzy. the world became red as I let out the building rage, I could feel my heart pumping furiously as it sent blood and Mana across my veins.
“Kill the fallen one at all cost!!… I’ll fight this one” the Dregu Chief ordered while l.i.c.k.i.n.g his skull necklace, this made his people fight more aggressively.
I didn’t run back to stop them, I knew my mission, if the Chief goes down… they’ll naturally stop.
He looked at me with interest before running towards me. He swings his hammer wildly and I dodge to the side, unfortunately he was too fast for me to counter attack.
Forced to retreat, I continued to dodge while slowly being pushed into a passive position.
‘This can’t continue!’ with that thought I decided to have confidence in my skills as a berserker but was interrupted by Largash’s scream.
“Gilgar!” A rusty axe was inches away from her head and the whole world seemed to be in slow motion in my eyes, ‘what happened?’ was all I could think as I ran towards her.
But something unexpected happened, a buff arm blocked the attack and bled, it pulled the attacker closer and there was a deafening crunch.
The one who had attacked fell to the ground with it’s head facing backwards. Then a deafening roar that shook everything and my ears began to bleed.
A buff figure stood in front of Gilgar, roaring at the sky with anger and defiance as he spread out his arm.
Then he shouted at the battlefield with glowing blue eyes saying, “I AM URIM BLACK MOON!! SON OF BOR WHITE BONE!!! WHO DARES TOUCH MY PEOPLE!!”.
