Watching from a distance as Adam confronted the general, Lucas continued to give orders to the knights. However, internally, he couldn't help but feel surprised by his young master's performance.
The way he had used the Demon Crocodile's eggs to attack the enemy camp...
It wasn't something a young man of his age could have come up with so quickly.

Lucas stepped back, dodging a soldier's attack before counterattacking with brutal precision.
The blade of his sword came down swiftly, splitting the man's helmet and skull in one motion. Blood splattered his armor as the body fell heavily to the ground, teeth sinking into the damp earth, and tongue hanging lifelessly.
Gripping the hilt of his sword more tightly, Lucas circulated his mana throughout his body, feeling the energy coursing through every muscle.
Without wasting any time, he lunged at one of the enemy knights before they could organize themselves.
