Chapter 10 - Red Calamity
<
>>KIFIRIN<< from Darius – No idea. He doesn’t answers to whispers and is avoiding everyone IRL. Maybe he’s sulking? I was kinda stern with him in my last whisper. Have you reconsidered joining my familia by the way? :D
<
>>KIFIRIN<< from Darius - Support?
<
>>KIFIRIN<< from Darius- I see. You have many surprises, don’t you? Well we will be raiding the Radiant familia castle. They have been targeting our weakest legion members as of late, so it’s high time we taught them a lesson. I have nothing against PK, but the odds have to be fair… and they weren’t when they came after our guys. Wanna join? I’ll be tomorrow at [COORDINATES] around noon.
<
>>KIFIRIN<< from Darius - Noted. I’ll tell my people to watch out for you. What do you want as repayment for the support? It’s not like you’re hurting for money after all…
<
>>KIFIRIN<< from Darius – Haha! Alright ;p
………….
*Spirits! So many persons! So THAT’S a raid huh? Nice*
The plains surrounding the enemy castle were dark with people. Warriors were huddled in the vanguard, followed by priests and their protectors. Bowmen composed the rearguard with the mages. There were also many other classes but this formation stood out the more. It wasn’t complete because many were still in the tents area, but it was forming.
There must have been at least 5 000 persons. Rinne didn’t know if they were all part of Requiem or if Darius had hired mercs. The crowd was noisy, and she could hear the clang of metal, but it was a good racket. It put her in the mood.
Heading towards the bigger Requiem tent in sight, she waited for the seemingly-busy guys manning it to acknowledge her.
“Yes? What do you want? Are you a merc or a member of the legion? Mercs have to go to one of the blue tents to receive their orders. If you’re from the legion just tell your unit number to an official and he’ll lead you there. They’re the guys in yellow, you can’t miss them” Said one of the fellows when his eyes left the central map they were analyzing.
“Umm hi I’m Rinne. Sorry to bother you but Darius tell me you guys would tell me where to stay. I’m support so it probably gonna be the rear”
“Rinne? Ah yeah Darius mentioned you. He said you could go wherever and do your thing. You’re a free agent, so no orders. Just don’t get killed too fast alright? He seemed to think you could help”
“Haha. Alright I’ll do my best. Good luck with the planning. Bye”
They didn’t answer, so she left.
…………..
It was almost noon. Almost all of the stragglers had joined the formation. Apparently the Primes were either commanders of the army, or part of elite shock-teams who were to ram their way into the castle. They would destroy its defenses as the rest of the troops occupied the opposing army.
She decided to make her way to some high ground in order to have a great view of the battle. It meant that she stayed near the planning tent the busybodies were at. It was above the battle-ground. She wouldn’t see Darius because he was leading one of the shock-teams. His aim was the core of the castle. Once he destroyed it would make the place Requiem’s. The protections and traps would also be deactivated.
*Maybe I’ll ask him to let me train on the traps once we win. I still have the trap-mastery at beginner 1 after all. It’d be great for me and would allow them to have a friendly guinea pig trying their defenses. Win-win*
Her singing mastery was high enough that she could affect the whole battlefield from here. The castle may not be, but at least she would help change the tide of the battle. Not every singer may be able to do that, but she had a variant of the normal mastery and extremly good elemental affinities to boot.
Yep, she had sang when she was with Van, but just for the fun, so the singing had gone up but not the voice of healing, she hadn’t used it… there had been no need to.
[Intermediate 8 - 3%](VAR: Elemental) Singing mastery
Your voice calls to the elements themselves, and they help you express your needs. When you sing about a theme related to them, they will strengthen the buffs/debuff,
- The stronger your understanding/affinity to the element(s), the stronger the effect
- The stronger your understanding/affinity to the element(s), the greater the AoE affected
- The more elements involved into a song, the greater effects (Current limit: 5 because Focus < 5 001)
- When you sing you cannot actively do anything else
A song unrelated to the elements will only be a song, pleasing to the ears indeed, but it will have no effects
