Hicks order the legions of Demons to charge towards the Silver Foxes. The Demons released loud roars that could shatter any warrior's spirit however their roars fell on literal deaf ears as the Silver Foxes stood their ground.

The Demons charged with bloodlust in their eyes, brandishing their tools to torture and harm those in their path.

"Xystons!" Aegeus shouted, javelins were tossed over his and frontline Foxes heads. /Translation: Spear, Javelin or Pointed Stick pierced him leaving it half blind, then a Cyclops collasped after it's body were riddled with arrows.

"Move!" Aegeus order as the Silver Foxes marched while keep their shields forward. The wounded Demons were then stabbed once they were past the shields.

Aegeus order for them to halt, the horde of Demons now becoming smaller growled in anger then prepare for a second charge.

This time they smash into the shields, Silver Foxes using their strength to hold off the Demons as their shields pressed against them and other Silver Foxes from behind push their shields into their fellow Foxes's backs.

Then the push stop as the horde stood in awe then shields of the Foxes shoved them back as blades were thrusted into the Demons then a shield bash to push them only for another thrust of blades.


Horses from the Rangers of Bois Creux charged towards the Horde, horses cried out and Demons roared.

Aegeus was astonished that help has arrived, "Divide and conquer!" Aegeus ordered forcing the Silver Foxes to divide into smaller groups and attack the Demons.

Rangers ran their lances into the Demons while the Silver assisted, Aegeus raised his shield blocking an attack then thrusting his spear into the Beast's chest.

Aegeus proceeded to slam his head into the beast's nose breaking it and forcing blood to spurt from it. The Beast collaspe while Aegeus huffed to catch his breath but a Cyclops swung at Aegeus whom raise his shield but was still knocked over.

"Málaka!" Aegeus grunted propping himself and prepare to defense himself with his shield, the Cyclops raise it's fist until the wind sounded as if it was slashed.

The Cyclops' neck begin to bleed then it's head slide from it's shoulders and the body collapsed, Chloe held her razor in a firm grip while the blood of the Cyclops dripped.

"Chloe?" Aegeus questioned, Chloe grabbed ahold of his arm pulling him to his feet "Talk later Aegeus we need to fight" She says to which Aegeus nodded.


Aegeus tossed his spear into the chest of a Greenskin, the monster held its it's chest while it fell to it's knees. Cringing from the unbearable pain the Greebskin grabbes the shaft and try to pull the weapon out.

Blood spurt from the wound and the pain grew, the Greenskin roared in pain until the sound of the air as if it was being sliced pierced it's ears as it's head rolled onto the field.

Chloe sheath her razor while Aegeus pulled his weapon from the back and flicked his spear, "Is Olga here as well Chloe?" Aegeus asked.

"My Queen is here Aegeus, whatever she goes I go" Chloe said.

The Rangers cut down the number of Demons causing them to break formation and retreat, "Shit! their breaking us!" One of the Black Dogs said with fear in his voice.

Momo ran with Eza latched onto her back, Momo cracked her knee into the jawline of a Mercenary whole Eza beheaded the other. "These guys are small times eh Eza?" Momo smirked, Eza nodded then she leap from her friend and slammed her blade into the head of one of the Black Dogs.

The Mercenary's head split open; his brain matter splattered onto her blade and some of his blood landed on Eza's face.

The Little Goblin wiped her face then spat on the corpse.


While the Silver Foxes and the Rangers of Bois Creux were close to victory, Knights from Ken arrived as well. Seeing an inevitable defeat Volt order his forces to retreat, Volt sneered at the fact he has lost a battle despite his tactics being foolproof.

"That kid...might actually be part of God...no matter even a God can bleed" He says while gazing at Aegeus who looked upon Volt with a look of scorn.

With the Black Dogs retreating the Silver Foxes sighed in relief as they have survived a close victory. Aegeus turned to see Olga and Chloe walking over to him.

Aegeus kneeled down to Olga while the former Queen of Garca look upon young leader and said "Rise Aegeus of the Silver Foxes" so he did.

"Lady Olga if I may what service do my Silver Foxes do you require?" He asked, Olga smiled a bit then spoke "The Silver Foxes are requested to come back to Ken, however it's been said that they were in battle with the Black Dogs and luckily the Rangers of Bois Crux offer their services"

Aegeus nodded as he moved his Spear back into a Javelin then sheathed it, "I see thank you Lady Olga and Chloe" He says with a smile. Olga held into his cheeks and with a mischievous smile "I have better way of accepting your graditude after all I do owe you after freeing me and Chloe from those filthy Mercenaries~"

Her tone was full of lust to make Aegeus's face turn a bit shade of red. Suddenly arguing distracted the two Dark Elves and Demi God, "Ah pardon me Lady Olga" Aegeus excused himself then went to the shouting match.

Ivar was currently shouting at a Ken who bore the symbol of Ken on their cloth. The armor was like Aegeus's patted armor however they had chain mail underneath their helmet, metal shoulder guards, gaunlets for their arms and legs both strapped to them.

"εντάξει εντάξει!" Aegeus called out. /Translation: Alright 2x/

"Aegeus?" The knight spoke removing their helmet as it was a pale skin young adult with freckles and red hair. Aegeus blinked his eyes in complete shock.

"Taylor!" He said, the Knight known as Taylor begin to hold a stern look "What the hell are you doing among Mercenaries? granted their Silver Foxes but their still Mercenaries!" Taylor said in a scolding tone.

Aegeus chewed his inner cheek before speaking "I'm the leader!" "L-Leader?!" Taylor was taken back. Olga walked over with Chloe as she placed her hands onto his shoulders "Aegeus whose he?"

"This is Taylor, we both grew up in the same church in Feoh he's...my older brother" Aegeus hesitated to speak, "Indeed...First Volt betrays Lady Celestine now my little brothers joins a band of hired blades"

Ivar suddenly snapped at Taylor, "We are nothing like the Dogs! we are honor bounded" Taylor glared at Ivar while clenching his blade "Stand down...Northman"

"Aegeus you never told us you have a brother" Maxon spoke. "We share a brotherly bond and it's because he became a squire for a Knight and left the church" He says rubbing his head trying to explain.

Taylor sighed heavily, "Gather your 'Mercenaries...' as we march for Ken Aegeus" He says placing his helmet on.

"Just give me a moment" Aegeus said then ran leaving the others confused, Aegeus approached the two Elves Grace and Anna.

"Ms. Campbell, Ms. Florence I wish to offer a proposition I would be pleased if you two joined the Silver Foxes" He says, Grace was surprised as well as Anna.

"B-But we don't know how to fight" Grace spoke, "We don't want to be a burden" Anna also chip in.

"No no! you don't have to fight, we have other positions that doesn't involve fighting and I believe you two can be great help" He says with a smile.

"Well it wouldn't hurt to accept" Grace smiled with her friend.


Ken, Capital of Eostia

The Silver Foxes rested within the city while Aegeus and his allies walked inside the palace, Taylor kneeled down then spoke "Lady Celestine I have receive The Silver Foxes"

The Shields were seated as their meeting has begun.

"Thank you Sir Clement" Celestine spoke in her usual soft tone, "And my Goddess, if you must know Aegeus is my brother as we were raised in the church" Celestine was surprise to hear this but nodded.

"I see, Sir Aegeus how does the Silver Foxes fair?" She asked, "Well Lady Celestine we were attacked by the Rebels lead by Volt himself but reinforments along with Lady Olga and Chloe help turn the tide" Aegeus spoke.

"Volt was among them?" Maia question, "He was Lady Maia er...Maia" Aegues corrected himself as the Queen of Mercenaries smirked a bit.

"Still we manage to beat them back, Volt must of healed ever since our battle in the Black Fort" Aegeus continued, "His forces have gotten larger meaning other Mercenary companies may of sided with him"

Celestine sighed, "I feared as much..." Claudia placed her hand onto Celestine's shoulder "My lady please keep your head held up there's still hope"

"Lady Leviathan is right, The Silver Foxes was created by the late Mason Uf'll they are honor bounded and...despite I having a distrust for some Mercenaries, Aegeus is a charismatic leader and I'm proud of my little brother" Taylor says.

Aegeus smiled a bit at Taylor's praise then Taylor held Aegeus by his hair a bit, "Yet I don't stand on why he joined but I'm sure he has reason"

Aegeus shook his head getting free, "Lady Celestine, Rhoz was one of Mason's lieutenants and he requested him to return home so he can heal only to promise to call his friend return, I wish to regain Rhoz"

"Of course Sir Aegeus, I still hope the Silver Foxes side with our Alliance" Celestine says, "My lady I carry on Mason's legacy along with my Foxes, we will stay by the Alliance's no matter what Volt throws at us I swear on this" Aegeus said with confidence.


Meanwhile

Shamuhaza continue his experiments while conjuring one of his spells, "Hmm...All I need is his blood...the Blood of a Demi God and the body of the Priestess Kaguya and I shall achieve a level higher then a God" Shamuhaza says after removing his bandages then looked at his reflection in a barrel of blood.

Then the crazed man begin to laugh, his laugh was cold and hollowed while it echoed through his hiding place.

"The power to become higher then a God will be mine...all mine" Shamuhaza laughed once more.

A visual of Taylor's armor is the For Honor Warden's armor called Loran, and I gave it some thought since Aegeus wouldn't be the only child raised in the church so I gave him a sibling.

Their not blood related their just that close.
