Warlock of War: My Ares System

Chapter 131 Battle Of The Lowest (1)



It has expanded and dripped with more intensity ever since I got this new spear, but thankfully, it isn't so bad that I will go crazy and rip apart my friends… but I'm sure it could evolve into that later on if I don't sate it now.

"Are you sure?" He tried to confirm once again, and this time I just nodded before grabbing my large backpack and walking out the door.

My friends already greeted me, but there was one complaint that pretty much all of us had.

"Why is this bitch coming?" Aisa muttered, and Bella grit her teeth, trying to stop herself from socking Aisa in the chin.

"It was one of the requirements when I made a deal with the head. Just ignore her… think of her like a bug that you can squash whenever you want," I muttered.

"Hey! What the hell, guys!" Bella shouted, but we had already left before she could throw a tantrum and wrap us all into it.

As soon as we arrived at the military base, I saw a few familiar faces: three kids who I had known from meeting with them a couple of times.

"How's it been? You haven't replied to any of my texts," The first kid said, and he was from some minor family of which I already forgot the name of.

In fact… I think I forgot all of their family names… and names.

I only formed connections with them in order to gain higher connections, such as meetings with Orme and that dude from the Boisgeze family.

"It's been pretty good. How've you been?"

"Pretty good as well… beside the two wars happening within this city, everything has been pretty good," The boy smirked, and as the other two came prancing over, they felt the pressure of a few eyes behind me.

All of my friends were layers above these spoiled brats who had only just started thinking of their strengths and skill.

They may have more systematic skills, but that doesn't mean those skills can still beat my friends… and of course, Bella, who's become an actual monster.

"Don't mind them. They're just a bit tense from being on a battlefield for the first time,"

"I-I'm not tense. Plus, we're not even near the battlefield,"

BOOM

Just as Cy finished up his excuse, a large explosion of fire resounded in the distance, wafting a draft of horrendous smell that mingled with the wind.

Aisa immediately gagged, and everybody around me was, of course, very queasy.

​ "What the hell is that smell?! You guys should take a shower from time to time!" Aisa shouted, but nobody had the willpower in them to muster up any words.

Just opening their mouths would've caused them to throw up.

"We're on a base right now. We'll be driving to the location with the mercenaries… of course, you won't be under somebody, but I suggest forming a party. Plus, you won't be sent to the raging parts yet as that is where we actually need a real strategy," A deep voice came from behind the three kids.

It seemed to be a type of general as he was decorated with tons of badges that displayed his overwhelming status before us.

"That's fine. But if you ever need help, just call us over… This battlefield isn't that big anyway," I muttered, and the man just gave me a pat on the shoulder before returning to a large tent.

We were currently at the very edge of the city, right next to the moat where you could easily fall in as the barriers had been removed.

But, on the very other side, I could see a few camps of people in black robes who I assumed to either be the government or a big family, making sure nobody actually crossed the moat.

"Not that it's possible anyway," I muttered before leading my group to an already large group receiving a pep talk.

Parties were immediately being formed, and as the Wony head informed the big guy over there who I had just met of our positions and what we specialize in, I was sure we were going to have a much easier time than everybody else.

Why? Well, it's not because we're young. Age doesn't matter in war; only skill and power do… so why?

Well, it's because we have two snipers. One is Aisa, and the other is me, who will also switch in for the frontline when needed.

Pretty much everybody told us that we were supposed to back up everybody, but I was only planning on providing support to Cy and Findir… I'm sure Bella didn't need it right now.

"Alright! We're leaving fresh and early tomorrow. Make sure your guns are tuned, your weapons are sharpened, and your gear doesn't have any holes in it!" The big guy announced, and soon everybody split into some already prepared tents.

(Bella POV)

"Fuck… I can't sleep," I muttered before pushing Aisa slightly to the side and slowly getting up, scratching the back of my head.

"Where are you going?" She asked, her under eyes baggy and dark.

BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM

From the silence of the night, you could hear each and every gunshot, a cast of magic, and the clanging of blades.

The blood-curdling cries of the war we were about to attend continued to persist throughout the night… and my slight excitement slowly began to die down.

You could call it naivety, but I wanted to be a hero in this war… do something heroic for once and propel my family's status through the sky.

"Getting some water," I muttered.

That was a lie.

As soon as I exited the tent, I looked up at the sky and slowly walked to an open patch of grass where my sense of hearing and sight contrasted.

Such a beautiful and starry night sky was being masked by the blood-curdling screams of what were to be my comrades, not even a few miles away.

All of a sudden, I heard some heavy breathing come from behind the tent that Orion, Cy, and Findir were staying in.

Curious, I took a peek behind and saw Orion crouched down, drool dripping from his clenched teeth and his hand gripping his chest.

"Ah… fuck… It's gnawing away at my senses," I heard him mutter, and just as he snapped his towards me, I had disappeared back into my tent.

What the hell was that?!
