Niel was current sitting in his tent, his large body gave off an immense pressure and prestige. He had already been promoted to general, meaning he was now in charge of this operation.
“General Niel, I’m afraid we’re having some problems”
“What’s happening?”
“It's the chieftain of the barbarians. Normally he won’t appear on that battle field, but for some strange reason he's come this time. Our warriors can’t do a thing against him, it's become a massacre”
“Hmm, looks like he can’t wait around any longer. Very well, I wanted to end this war soon anyways”
Niel stood up and his body instantly overshadowed the soldier in front of him. The young soldier nearly fell to his knees, however Niel weakened this pressure, causing the soldier to feel relieved. This was a pressure that high class warriors develop over years of intense combat. It was akin to a zebra seeing a lion, the sight of the lion alone was enough to cause the zebra to try to escape for its life. This was a pressure coming from a stronger lifeform.
Niel stepped out of his tent and soon arrived at the battlefield. He saw an endless amount of corpses, the dirt beneath his feet was already tinted red from all the blood that had dissolved into it. Looking across the battlefield, he saw a large lion like man, he was wearing an extravagant headpiece, it was something like a crown for the barbarians, and only the chieftain was allowed to wear it.
The chieftain looked back at Niel, the two instantly entered a battle through their pressure fields, however they seemed to be evenly matched. The chieftain was shocked upon seeing this, for such a young warrior to already have strength on par with his. It wouldn’t be long before this young man become someone the entire world could only look up too.
The chieftain naturally wasn’t going to let such a prodigy survive for much longer, if he didn’t kill him now he may never have a chance in the future. This was killing two birds with one stone, first he could remove such a powerful enemy, and he’d also get the reward the eldest prince had also promised him.

“Meeting such a fine young warrior is truly a blessing. However it's a shame you’re my enemy, the only option I have left is to kill you”
“Who will die isn’t known yet, so let's not waste words and begin”
“Very well”
The battlefield seemed to empty out the second these two powerhouses entered. The regular soldiers knew that they couldn’t get too close to a fight between such strong warriors, they may die from the pressure coming off them alone. The two were soon face to face. The chieftain wielded a golden staff, however the staff was nearly twice as long as him and its was about as thick as a regular person's torso, making people wonder how exactly he’d use it as a weapon. However they were soon to find out. The chieftain smashed the pillar towards Niel with all his strength. Niel knew it wouldn’t be wise to try and block an attack with such force, so he shifted to the side and managed to dodge the move. The chieftain swung his pole like crazy. It was almost as if the pole wasn’t giant and was instead the size of a finger, because the chieftain seemed to have no problems at all swinging it around. Each swing of his pole would leave a deep groove behind in the dirt below. The chieftain suddenly brought the pole up to the top of his head, and took in a deep breathe.
“Heavenly Pillar”
The pole swung down towards Niel with tremendous power behind it. Niel looked at this attack and nodded his head in appreciation.
“It wouldn’t be fair if I didn’t return the favor”
Niel crouched his entire body down while holding tightly onto the spear. His body got closer to the ground and he seemed to be building up a lot of energy.
“Spring Time Spear”
He jumped up from his crouching position like he was a spring that just got released. The spear in his hands shot towards the pole with extraordinary power. The two clashed and causing a massive explosion of power. Both their weapons were destroyed and they were tossed back by the force of the blow. The chieftains body skid across the earth before finally stopping. Looking at him you could see he was most likely dead, and even if he was alive, he wouldn’t survive for much longer. Niel was still standing straight, however his entire body was bleeding, and his bones were broken. A sneaky looking man who was originally hiding in among the soldiers seemed to think this was a perfect chance. This was a back up plan that the eldest prince had come up with. Even if Niel managed to beat the chieftain, an assassin would still come strike while he was at his weakest.
The assassin shot forward, dagger in hand. Seeing Niel’s open back, a smirk appeared on his face. Niel suddenly turned his head around, staring the assassin right in the eyes. The assassin suddenly had a chill travel down his spine, as if he had just jumped into a shark tank. He wanted to pull back but he had already come too far. Niel suddenly released a pressure that was far stronger than the one he had just a few moments before the battle. This battle allowed Niel’s strength to break through to an unprecedented level. The pressure suddenly hit the assassin, causing him to bleed from all his orifices. He died right there, with his eyes still open in fear.
