7 Two Types of Enemies

Sinclair was in a great mood after defeating their enemies, riding through the corpse-filled battlefield on her manticore, which was taking casual bites out of the bodies as it walked past. The creature was rather picky; it only ate paladins and priests, utterly uninterested in anyone who wasn’t a cleric or above level 10. Wherever the beast passed, everyone stopped looting and gave it a wide berth. It wouldn’t favor these people just because they’d fought tirelessly for its master; anyone it bumped into would be clawed and fiddled with like they were toys. Given the poison in its claws, there were no chances of survival.

One of the mages approached the manticore’s side, reporting the aftermath to Sinclair. 2,800 enemy soldiers had been eliminated, with less than a hundred escapees. There were no captives this time; the troops who had grown dejected the moment Salwyn fled were immediately massacred by their men, while the rest had fought all the way to the end. After all, the men of the Bloodstained Lands were all bandits; they naturally wouldn’t show mercy. Sinclair’s own side had their losses as well, with 3,500 dead while half of the rest were injured.

The girl waved her hands in annoyance, “I don’t care about that trash; it doesn’t matter if all of them die! How are my knights? That’s what’s important.”

“Six dead and four seriously injured. Two can’t be saved,” the mage replied respectfully.

“So I only have 31 left?” Sinclair furrowed her brows.

“Yes, we’ve faced too many losses—”

Sinclair waved him to a stop before he finished, pondering over the situation for a moment before sighing, “So the game’s done, huh... Things come back to what we talked about before. Are there any legends on this plane? Anyone can call themselves ascended, but they can’t unlock a legendary ability before level 21.”

“Perhaps the so-called legends of this plane are just like the ascended. In fact, they might even confuse ascended and legendary abilities, which means they might just be level 17,” the mage conjectured. This was what Sinclair had been thinking as well.

“No,” she eventually shook her head, her fingers subconsciously twirling the manticore’s fur, “I’ve already killed two of those fakes, three if we count the one today. There’s also the two level 16 priests. We haven’t even been here that long, and this isn’t even a powerful region of the plane. How could there be so many level 16 people if the plane greatly restricts such power? Faelor feels vaguely similar to Norland, I already feel like I’m going to advance again.”

A look of surprise painted the mage’s face as he rejoiced, “That’s great!” If Sinclair managed to advance to level 16 at her age, it would significantly increase her standing and ability to win planar wars.

However, the girl herself wasn’t all that happy, “It’s nothing! The only thing it means is that this plane’s upper bound encompasses legendary might, and those rumors are all true! With how we massacred this army, we might end up facing a genuine elite soon.
