When Doaf joined up with his men, he didn't hesitate to push as fast as he could towards Amera.
He wanted to join her and start an unstoppable attack over the enemies.
He saw the last chance was in trying to reach those responsible for the hidden worlds. Killing them meant these portals would cease to exist.
It was a simple plan. Cutting off the constant supply of reinforcements for the enemy would paralyze the latter and turn the tide to their favor.
As he wanted, he finally caught Amera with his elite forces.
Amera was already in a dire situation. She was rained by endless attacks from far and near. And yet she was moving so fast to get hit with any of these.
But that situation didn't last for long. She was finally cornered and would have been shot to her death if Doaf didn't arrive.
His arrival came in a brutal way as he didn't hesitate to throw all his elites to kill everyone standing in between him and Amera.
As for the raining attacks he used a few of his elites to form a defensive array, enough to allow Amera to escape this trap.
"You should have waited," Doaf didn't hesitate to reprimand her, and yet she seemed not to be feeling any guilt at all.
"We need to reach the front," she said while pointing her spear there, "we need to stop them before that traitor moves."
Doaf realized she wasn't acting on impulse as he feared, so she got a plan. Coincidently it was the same plan he initially thought of.
"We can't do that with all these portals opened," Doaf pointed his sword towards the portals around, "we need to get rid of them first."
"Good point," Amera nodded, "you can do this while I reach the front."
"Not by your own," Doaf stopped her with his sword blocking her path to advance. She gave him a weird look while he only smiled. "I'll send a few of my trusted and capable elites to help you."
"I'm better off alone," she stubbornly said.
"Yeah, I could see that," Doaf said in sarcasm before whistling. All of sudden a team of a hundred elites gathered and stood around the two. "Go and help Amera to reach the frontlines," he said before his face turning serious, "if anything happened to her, I will hold you responsible for that."
"We will do our task properly, sir!"
They all said in unison while the fight all around was raging wild. Amera only harrumphed before she turned to a ray of light as her words echoed in the place.
"Don't be late to catch up."
The team seemed to be aware of her plan as the next moment they also vanished from the area around. Doaf had such a wide smile as he muttered:
"I've selected the fastest, not the strongest... I hope you won't be too mad at me when you realize this."
He wanted to protect her and yet he knew how hard it was to convince her with such a thing. So he decided not to select the strongest but the fastest of his team.
Those were able to keep up with her absurd speed. Besides they also had a defensive array, one that could provide shelter for her to move freely and not worry about any incoming attacks from far.
"It's time to get these nasty portals shut... On me!"
He didn't enjoy a single moment of rest as he instantly turned his gaze and attention towards the portals. He had to close these doors of hell if he wanted to end this war in his favor.
As he started to move with his small army, Nicole on the sides of this brutal fight was having her moment as well.
"Don't let any of those bastards run away!" she kept shouting while overseeing the entire battle from top.
She was like the eye of a hawk, a tactic her love loved to use all the time. It was expected for the leader of an army to either be at the front lines leading the army or standing far in the back.
But it was quite unusual for a leader to fly high up and give orders in the middle of the army.
It was an unexpected move as the leader will be exposed to the enemies as well. However she also knew this was a false statement.
For any enemy to dare to try and attack her, he or she had to fly in the air and cross many trusted guards of the leader.
A task that was proven to be futile and hopeless in each fight Aemie experienced.
And now Nicole was just mimicking this.
She wasn't afraid to get shot, even when she was targeting those with long range attacks. Her guards were capable enough to use defensive arrays and block any incoming attacks on her.
All she needed to do was to assess the situation and adjust the position of her frontline forces.
At some times she would give orders for more troops to advance and press the enemy at certain points. At other times she would order them to retreat.
And now she saw the enemy was shaken as if they lost their coordination and line of command.
"You two... are really something!" she knew this wasn't thanks to her or her army at all. But it was thanks to Amera and Doaf.
The chaos the two were creating at the heart of the enemy troops caused mighty waves that finally started to reach her shores.
The loss of command came from the pressure these two were now exerting at the leaders of the army in the center. As she gazed up at the two, she noticed the direction each was taking.
"One is aiming to kill the frontlines, and the other is aiming to destroy the portals... brilliant tactic," she took a deep breath before shouting at her men:
"Don't slack! Push forward! I want every single bastard of them to get killed now!"
She managed to kill a lot of those long ranged enemies, but their initial number was so huge to be exterminated in this small window of time.
