My Space-Time System

Chapter 610  Fall of the Eastern Capital.

"Can I borrow you for a minute?" Blake asked with an outstretched hand.

Without giving it a thought, Tessie nodded as she stretched out her hand and grabbed his. In an instant, they both warped into the pocket dimension.

Upon arrival, Blake turned to everyone and spoke.

"I know you all have a lot of questions to ask" he said as he froze space forming chairs. "But my explanation will answer everything, so you all should have a seat while I start from the beginning."

As soon as Blake sat down, two cute doll-sized wolves appeared on his shoulders. One had thick black fur with red glowing patterns while the second had white fur with blue glowing patterns. The three of them were aware that this was Ebony and Ivory, but they felt a terrifying aura that instinctively made them swallow.

"First things first, I'm not from Infinite realm." Blake said which sent waves of confusion through everyone present. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Then where are you from?" Carmilla and Tessie asked with raised brows. If Blake said he wasn't from the Synder empire that would be quite shocking but acceptable. But saying he wasn't from the realm entirely was something they couldn't even fathom. Blake glanced at Brian for a brief moment before explaining. "I am from a blue planet very far away from here, and I was summoned to this realm by the one you know as the All-Father."

The girls were shocked and confused at the same time as it all seemed farfetched, but they didn't interrupt him, gesturing for him to continue. "When I was summoned to Infinite realm, I was chased by morgs which led to a cave where I came in contact with the All-Father's inheritance. It was then that Prince Bryon arrived and killed morgs before bringing me into Calton and enrolling me in the Magic school." Blake began explaining his life throughout his days in the school while skipping irrelevant details.

"Throughout my days in the magic school, and even to the end of my career at the Ash Corps, my driving motive was to complete whatever task I had here and return to my mom." Blake let out a helpless sigh as he still missed his mom, but he quickly snapped out of it and continued his story. "That was until I joined the League of Assassins and met my Dad." Blake said causing even Brian to raise a brow in confusion.

"I thought you said your dad died in your world when you were young?" Tessie couldn't help but point out the contradiction.

"That was what I thought until the feared Masked man who turns out to be my brother took me to him." Blake explained, even going on to tell them about everything Cassius had told him including the secrets of the main realm, and the former All-Father's betrayal.

This left Brian, Camilla and Tessie utterly speechless as they were still trying to digest so many mind-blowing secrets.

"The main of the war is to eliminate Synder and the former All-Father as they are variables that would eventually lead to the destruction of the realm." Blake concluded his story.

"From what I understood, this isn't a matter we can interfere with. So why have you done so much just to tell us this?" Brian couldn't help but wonder.

"I didn't want you all to feel that I betrayed you guys by being on the enemy's side. Also, this was to make sure nothing happens to you all until the siege is over." Blake said reminding them that a gruesome war was taking place on the outside.

Meanwhile, on the battlefield, the receding water began returning sending shivers down the spine of the Synder empire soldiers littered across the battlefield. For them the return of the tide meant nothing but death but soon their greatest fear would be proven to be baseless.

The surging tide of water ignored everything happening across the battlefield and began surging towards the skies, moving in the direction of the area where Prince Bryon and the third Sea Lord, Corsair had vanished.

As a Battle Angel of the water element, Corsair had the authority of the oceans which allowed him to summon the tide of the oceans from anywhere, giving him a great advantage no matter where he chose to fight.

On the Battlefield, things were not looking good for the Synder empire. The returning tide showed that the fight with Prince Bryon seemed to have only started, pushing him out of the equation.

Xeros was like an unshakable force, laying waste to angels no matter how many gathered. To make matters worse, Major General Carmilla who was in charge of the western wall had been abducted, leaving that position vacant and prone to enemy attacks.

Right now it was clear the army of Calton was losing this war, plunging many into a state of fear and despair.

"No one was expecting him to be here." Hoffenheim said with a strange level of calmness on his face even though things were not going as planned.

"He is too dangerous, I cannot continue to fight." Hoffenheim concluded after giving the matter some thought. Xeros' strength was well known and on the battlefield today, he has proven it to be true. Fighting against someone like this even after seeing his power directly was no different from committing suicide. Hoffenheim was much smarter than that.

"But if I run, that will be considered as treason." A strange thought suddenly struck Hoffenheim. "I will be labeled a deserter." He added with a slight show of discomfort on his face.

"Well, all I have to do is return to Father." Hoffeinheim said with confidence. "I wonder where he is now..." He said before vanishing, exiting the battlefield without a second thought.

Hoffenheim believed the empire brought this calamity upon itself by marginalizing commoners. He was not a citizen of Synder so he didn't owe them any form of loyalty.

Regardless, he still worried about his colleagues and his students whom he had formed bonds with during his stay here. It was sad they were caught up in this mess but he had no plans of dying, and neither did he have any intentions of getting Azkelwart involved in this war.

Out of nowhere Prince Bryon appeared in mid-air, outside the city leaving many shocked as they expected this battle to last a bit longer. Looking at him, it was clear he wasn't hurt, only having a few cuts and bruises.

"Retreat!" Prince Bryon suddenly ordered leaving many shocked and confused.

"Retreat to where?" Many muttered in confusion but it soon became clear to them that the message was not for them.

The few important figures who understood what was going on quickly headed to the Square and vanished, leaving Calton in its time of need.

Only now did the weight of their actions reach the soldiers of Calton. Their prince and a few other strong important figures left at the most crucial time of the battle.

"Did we just get abandoned?" A soldier muttered as his weapons fell from his hands. His eyes filled with shock and disbelief.

The same feeling plagued every soul in Calton as they tried to wrap their head around everything that just happened but even then they were not given the chance.

Explosions rocked the walls and gates of the city and one after the other the gates began to fall while soldiers of the Tigerian army began scaling the walls in large numbers.

The Tigerian forces had made their way into the city. It was clear to everyone that the battle had been lost.
