CHAPTER 1197  GENERAL… CAN HIS MAJESTY… FACE ALL 1000 MONSTERS ON HIS OWN…?

The moment Nux was teleported into another location, he glanced at his own hands and started jumping around to get used to this feeling.

He still remembered how he entered the Tower after all his wives had gone in and sat cross-legged, then, the moment he closed his eyes, a huge white-colored Magic Circle formed under his body and he sensed a strange energy entering his body.

Within a second, he lost consciousness and now found himself in this strange place, everything happened just like how the Elven Queen had told him.

He was in his 'Soul Form', however, as he moved around, Nux couldn't feel any difference compared to his main body.

'Status'

Nux called his System to see if it was working, soon, a screen appeared in front of his eyes, his System was working just fine, seeing that, Nux tried to contact his wives, however, just as he expected, it was as if he was put in a separate dimension, he couldn't contact anyone.

Just to test things out, Nux tried using his System abilities as well and once he made sure that everything was perfectly fine, he stretched his body and prepared for the Trial he was about to face.

As if they sensed his intentions, the doors of the hall he was in opened up,

"Your Majesty!"

A soldier walked in with a panicked look on his face.

"They are here!"

The soldier shouted.

Nux narrowed his eyes as he tried to understand what sort of entity the being in front of him was, he looked like a human, however, Nux could feel that something was off.

He didn't feel like a complete human.

'Is it because it is an illusionary world?'

Nux reasoned in his head.

The soldier, on the other hand, had no clue what his King was thinking about, and,

"Your Majesty! Your Soldiers are waiting for your orders! Please address them and say a few words before they fight what could be their last War!" the soldier requested.

'Heh, they sure put in quite a lot of effort to make it interesting, I will give them that.'

Nux chuckled as he spread his senses all over the castle and found where all his soldiers were gathered.

His army had 1000 men, out of whom, 100 were Semi Saints, 200 were Great Sages, 300 Sages, and 400 Emperors.

He also had a Saint who stood in front of the Army, he was most probably the Army General.

'To think the General would be one stage ahead of the one taking the Trial, that's interesting.' Nux muttered inwardly. Of course, all the soldiers were Incomplete Cultivators so they weren't actually stronger than Nux. However, since the strength of subordinates inside a Trial was distributed according to the Cultivation Stage and being Complete and Incomplete Cultivator had no effect on it, Nux could see how the weaker ones had the option to make use of his soldier to clear more waves.

It was clear that it wasn't just a trial of strength but wit as well.

He then walked towards the balcony through which he could see all his soldiers.

"ALL HAIL THE MAJESTY!"

"ALL HAIL THE MAJESTY!"

The soldiers shouted together, their eyes were full of fighting spirits.

The energy they released was so overwhelming that even Nux wanted to get fully immersed in this world and act like the real king.

And that is what he did.

Raising his hand, he gestured for the soldiers to turn silent.

When the soldiers turned silent, Nux glanced at the General of the Army and,

"General."

He called out.

"Your Majesty." The Saint Stage General bowed his head.

"You will be commanding all the soldiers,

I will stand outside the wall and battle all the enemies who come after us, you are to divide your men into two parts,

The Body Cultivators will be staying behind the outmost wall, killing the enemies who manage to pass the outermost wall.

The Mana Cultivators will be deployed on top of the Larger Inner Wall, they will be responsible for killing the enemies from afar and assisting the first group.

I will say this now, the Mana Cultivators are not to target any enemies who haven't surpassed the first wall, I will be dealing with those,

Is that clear?"

"But Your Majesty you cannot possibly be on the front lines all on your own!"

The General was shocked.

"If something happens to you the soldiers will lose all their morale-"

"Trust me, General,

If enemies who are strong enough to hurt me appear,

No matter how high the Soldiers' morale is, it wouldn't matter."

Nux chuckled arrogantly.

"…"

The General was flabbergasted.

Aren't you supposed to calm the soldiers and give them a morale boost in this situation?

Why was the King acting so arrogantly? Têxt belongs to .

Nux, however, completely ignored his General's doubts as he stepped into the sky using the [Absolute Step] and slowly walked over the 2 layers of Walls,

"Get the Soldiers into the position, General.

They are coming."

Nux's voice echoed throughout the castle.

Hearing his words, the General buried his doubts in his head as well, then, he turned towards the soldiers and,

"Men! Our Majesty will be fighting in the frontlines and have ordered us to hold out the rear! He is taking all the burden on his own shoulders just so you bastards could live for a few more years! Are you going to let his efforts be wasted!?"

"NO, GENERAL!"

The soldiers shouted.

"Then follow me, our majesty may have given us a mundane task, but, we will complete that task with full determination, is that clear!?"

"YES, GENERAL!"

"Now take your positions!"

"YES, GENERAL!"

The Soldiers were quickly positioned just like Nux ordered them to.

*Rumble* *Rumble*

Soon, the entire castle reverberated.

The first wave of enemies was here.

The General gulped.

As a Mana Cultivator, he was standing above the Inner Wall that was 50 Meters tall and since the First Wall was only 30 Meters tall, the General and other Mana Cultivators were able to see the entire battlefield and the group of 1000 foreign monsters that were rushing towards them.

"General… can His Majesty… face all 1000 monsters on his own…?" One of the soldiers questioned with a worried look on his face.

"…"

The General didn't answer.

He too was nervous. The enemy monsters may only be as strong as Sages, however, facing a thousand of them alone…

It would be too taxing on the body.

The General was prepared to bring the Majesty back the moment he sensed that he was in danger, however,

The moment the 1000 monsters rushed towards the King, something shocking happened,

"Crimson Cresent."

The King took out his sword and as he slashed the air ahead of him,

All 1000 monsters rushing towards him were beheaded.

The First wave was cleared.
