Chapter 353 Siege Engines
"The monsters outnumbered us," General Soren exclaimed, his eyes on the large number of monsters around the fortress. He is currently at the top of the castle, giving him the greatest view of the monsters forces.
"It will be a hard battle, and we might not survive before reinforcement come," Besides him, a younger looking man said.
He is wearing an armor painted in black, with a unicorn crest at where his heart is at. His piercing green eyes is so sharp, many tremble from his mere gaze.
He is also one of the strongest combatants of the Fortress of Soren.
"You spoke the truth, no matter how painful it is, Captain Nasyph," Geberal Soren said.
Captain Nasyph, the leader of the Blade of Beast, and an A-rank combatants shrugged his shoulder.
To him, why bother denying the truth. With the sheer numbers of soldiers, plus a demon thrown to the mix, it would be hard for them to survive, much less win the siege.
"Though, I wonder what they are planning encircling us?" he said outloud.
The behavior of the monsters showed they possessed great intelligence. It is to be expected as a demon lead them. Demon themselves possess human-level intellect, plus they are powerhouse in magic.
No stories have ever denotes demon as being that cannot use Magic. So, it's likely the demon planned on throwing some large fireballs towards the gates, destroying and allowing it forces to enter the Fortress.
'However, don't think it would be that easy,' General Soren thought. The Fortress have several powerful Magic Circle built inside of it. It not only weakened Magic Attack from the outside, but also create a barrier that will block the Magic Attack.
Aside from that, there are Magic Circle that allow members of the Mage Corp to unleash their spells at greater ranger as well as in more succession.
'We are going to make you pay a heavy price in your attempt to attack the Kingdom!'

Gobruk looked at the Fortress with a frown. As a Demon Goblin King, he could feel the mana around him, though not the extent of dedicated Goblin Shaman.
From it, he could tell there is some Magic at work, likely weakening any spells thrown to the wall.
"Grugh! Grakh! Wrarghu!" he ordered as nearby Goblin Shaman and Goblin High Shaman created a magic barrier, blocking the spell.
Sure enough, a bolt of concentrated fire come from the robed people, which was blocked by the barrier.
While the catapult survived for now, he knew it just the beginning as the human will not stop until their siege engines were destroyed. Thankfully, it just one of the many.

"What the?" General Soren exclaimed, his eyes on the other directions. Orcs and it's vairant were pulling more siege engines closer to the Fortress.
"They have more. We underestimate them," Captain Nasyph spat. They could see about 5 siege engines in each directions, with boulders loaded into them, ready to reign terror to the Fortress and its defender.

"Wargh!" Gobruk ordered, to which the siege engines were activated. Unfortunately, only some make it.
He watched as some of the weapons collapsed, destroyed by its load while some just not work properly. While there are some that worked as intended, it is not too effective in the eyes of the Demon Goblin King.

"It seem despite being smart monsters, they are not expert engineers," Captain Nasyph said, trying to hold back the laughter welling inside of him.
The General similarly looked surprise but he use it for something more productive.
"Destroy the still functioning siege engines! We could not let it fire more boulders!" while the danger is minimal, there is some damages to the walls along with several soldiers being injured from being to close to the boulders.

And so, day two of the battle ended up with siege engines failed in working as intended, though Gobruk manage to get some data. Namely, monsters suck in making things.
