An Understated Dominance by Marina Vittori

“Kill them all!”

At Warrick’s command, the Red Legion charged without hesitation. Blades flashed as they stormed toward the elite enforcement unit.

This time, nearly a thousand Red Legion soldiers arrived. With their sheer numbers, they launched a pincer attack from both flanks, leaving the enemy with no way to fend it off.

“Form the Shield Formation!” Axel shouted upon seeing the dire situation.

His men immediately sheathed their blades and raised their shields to form a defensive line. Their pursuit had cut them off from the main force. Since they were up against an enemy ten times their size, forming a defensive line was their best option.

If they could stall for even a moment, reinforcements from the castle would arrive, and the tide would turn in their favor. Once that happened, the thousand-strong Red Legion would be the ones on the defensive.

After a brief charge, the two forces collided.

Warrick had personally trained the Red Legion. He selected only the most loyal and battle-hardened soldiers. They weren’t only disciplined but also highly skilled, with each one capable of taking on a hundred enemies.

They might not match the elite enforcement unit in one-on-one combat. However, when charging in formation, they had a crushing advantage. With sheer numbers on their side, they pressed forward relentlessly, leaving the elite enforcement unit struggling to fight back.

If not for Axel’s sheer strength and ability to hold the line, the formation would have been broken through long ago.

“Connor! Dave! How dare you attack the enforcement team? Are you trying to start a rebellion?” Axel roared.

Attacking the enforcement team meant going against the entire kingdom. Doing so would lead to immediate exile from West Lucozia.
