"Payback does taste sweet." She muttered to herself just before she engaged in a physical confrontation with the Vipers.
She can only delay the inevitable. The two armies crashed into each other eventually. The battle sage monkeys have already settled the score with their bombardment of spells. In fact, they have killed more of the Vipers than the spell tower killed of them.
The two armies are more or less equal in number now. It doesn't mean that the spell tower is weak. It is in fact, a complement that it took an army to match the damage that she did in about the same amount of time. It is a big compliment indeed. The only people capable of outputting so much damage alone are her brothers.
She wormed herself deep into the side of the Vipers. She is not a stranger to being cornered by enemies on every side. She has nothing to fear because she will survive as long as there is a path of survival. She followed that path of survival and her soldiers followed after her. It was easy to break into their formation because the Vipers didn't have much of a formation. They are more of a loose band of hunters than an army.
She finally began to wreak havoc on the Vipers after getting deep into their formation. Now she can let loose safely. The spell tower won't be able to fire her spells indiscriminately anymore. The normal vipers are no match for her despite the buff they received from the attack paragon. Being Soverick's Lieutenant has strengthened her to the Emperor level so she is much too strong for the normal vipers. She killed them and made her way toward the attack buff paragon.
All the commanders like her are aiming for this paragon too. That is their battle plan. They intend to gang up on the "harmless" paragon and eliminate it. They also have to do it quickly before it is too late. If what Soverick told them about the attack paragon is true, then he has to be eliminated before its full power comes to bear.
The attack buff didn't join the battle. It stayed at the back of the army while overseeing the battle happening below it. It still has its arms folded but it is frowning heavily right now. The situation on the side of the furries' flag is making it frown. The situation of the battle is also aggravating it making it frown heavily.
"This is not going anything like what I thought it would go like." It complained with some fear.
This paragon expected resistance. They all expected resistance. There's no way an equal amount of furries with the same level of strength as them won't give them some resistance. But they also expected victory and they expected the victory to be swift and easy. They were supposed to overwhelm the furries. It is not baseless confidence either. It is because they have paragons and 9 of them too.
They came into this battle with confidence and it is not because they are blind fools. They may be proud because of being paragons but having that power comes with struggling and a lot of suffering. The existence of Paragons in the society of Vipers United them but it's like every society, there is always division, strife, and competition.
All strife falls on the shoulders of paragons since the lives of each and every one of their normal Vipers is too precious to lose. That means being a Viper is to put your life in danger for the lives of the group of people that are connected to you.
Paragons need connections. They need people to follow them so that they can be empowered. This very need creates conflict among Paragons. They kill each other to take the connections of their foe. Their competition weeds out the weak paragons and strengthens the strong ones.
So being a paragon has not been all rainbows and sunrises. They are all battle-hardened and have faced their fair share of danger multiple times over. It is their experience that gave them the confidence that they will beat the furries. After all, the furries have no paragons.contemporary romance
But things are not going at all as they thought. They are not on their way to victory. They are not even close to victory. Losing is a more reliable prediction of their fate with the way things are going. For starters, their paragons suffered and are still suffering at the hands of the champion of the furries. That's when things started to go wrong.
They took the champion of the furies seriously because all paragons fear their own child of the plane more than they fear another paragon. Unfortunately, that wasn't good enough. They never stood a chance. All their caution was for naught.
ραndαsΝοvεl.cοm Three paragons are dead, three are being toyed with while the rest are helpless to help because the furries are not easy prey as they thought. He is being targeted by some normal but powerful furries while the paragons defending their flag are being attacked too. So the Vipers are being pressured from all sides.
There are three points of conflict in this battle. There is the location of the furries' flag. They are losing that without a doubt. There's the battlefront where he is right now and they might lose it. The defenders at his back are also struggling with defending the flag of the Vipers. So no, things are not going at all as he thought. It is more accurate to say that things are going downhill.
"What do I do?" He asked himself and the others anxiously.
He had to ask for directions because he doesn't know what to do. If he is honest with himself, then he will admit that the sight of Salvini is scaring him. She is the closest one to him among all the commanders coming for him. She is more than a kilometre away but he doesn't want her to come any closer to him.
A kilometer is much too close for his comfort because he can see how easily she is dispatching every Viper that comes her way. They are like children before her spear. Those normal Vipers are stronger than him so he will not fare much better at her hands.
