Reincarnated With Three Unique Skills - Chapter 219

Chapter 219: Chapter 219: Spar; Interruption
In an attempt to intimidate the soldiers, Aengus released some of the aura suppressed inside him.

A low “Buzz…” filled the air.

Instantly, everyone felt an immense weight pressing down on their shoulders, struggling to breathe—everyone except Aria’s group.

Hundreds of soldiers dropped to their knees, horror-stricken as they glimpsed visions of death. They had never witnessed such overwhelming power, and that included the two Captains. They realized their new captain was definitely no ordinary S-Rank—perhaps his true rank was even higher, something he kept concealed.

How terrifying!

The two captains began to feel somewhat scared now.

“Whether we win or lose the war, I will keep my word—and so should you, remember,” Aengus’s voice echoed, loud and clear.

At that moment, the soldiers understood that their new captain was not someone to be takem lightly , and the previously unruly ones fell into line, fully obedient.

“How domineering!” Princess Delilah’s eyes shone with a strange admiration. Though she had seen her brothers display similar strength many times, Aengus’s presence felt oddly captivating.

Aria cast a wary glance at Delilah; she was determined not to let anyone else join their already chaotic relationship. Managing a three-way relationship was challenging enough, and she wasn’t prepared to handle more.

But she had to admit, Aengus was looking more charming as time passed. If this continued, even goddesses might descend from the heavens to fall in love with him.

Aengus quickly retracted his aura and asked, “Any more questions?”

The man who had questioned him straightened up immediately, adjusting his attire with his heart pounding in his chest.

“No, Captain. You’re mighty!” the man replied respectfully.

“Okay, everyone, disperse!” Aengus commanded as he stepped down from the stage.

The soldiers quickly dispersed to their respective posts, gossiping about their new captain and preparing for tomorrow’s battle with high spirits.

As Aengus started walking, Captains Dior and Ren followed him, now filled with newfound fear and respect.

“Good speech, Captain Zero. We have full confidence in you,” Captain Dior commented from beside him.

“I only spoke the truth, and I’m determined to win this war. Why don’t you two get me a map so we can discuss tomorrow’s battle plan?” Aengus asked.

Captain Dior and Ren looked hesitant. “Captain, we can provide the map, but we’ve always followed Commander Zain’s lead in previous battles. Would it be alright to go against his command?”

Aengus shrugged. “No need to worry about that. I’ll handle it. I made a promise, and I’ll do whatever it takes to fulfill it. Besides, I won’t alter the formation unless absolutely necessary.”

Dior and Ren nodded, sighing in relief.

“Alright, Captain. We’ll bring you the map shortly.” With that, they left to retrieve the map while Aengus made his way toward Aria’s group.

“Captain, good afternoon! How are you feeling today?” Yona asked in a joking tone.

Aengus raised his brows but shrugged it off.

“Did you all find your tent?” he asked, looking especially at Aria.

Aria replied, “Yes, we did, Ethan. Your tent should be ready. It’s that big one over there.” She pointed to a fairly large tent.

“Let’s all go inside. We need to discuss our strategy for tomorrow,” Aengus said, leading them into the spacious captain’s tent, which was large enough to fit several people.

Drake, Delilah, and the others followed him inside. A little while later, Captains Dior and Ren entered with the map in hand.

Aengus and the group held a meeting for a fair amount of time, discussing troop deployment, defense, and attack strategies, and assigning each member a specific role for the upcoming battle.

When they came out of the tent, it was already late afternoon.

Aengus and the others quickly gathered around a large bonfire to spend time together. The higher-ups had already arranged for intelligence gathering, so they would be informed when the war was about to start. With Aengus’s special vision, he could detect enemies from kilometers away.

Honestly, he found this war to be a waste of resources and time. How could someone be so blinded by power that they ignore the main war against the demons who were wreaking havoc?

If he hadn’t stopped the demon army near Darkwood Forest, there would have been news of a massacre in the neighbouring Skyfall Kingdom by now.

As they enjoyed the cozy warmth of the fire in uncertain times, several nearby soldiers glanced curiously at them from time to time.

The sun was setting in the west, casting a serene glow as Aria and Aengus sat together. Aria smiled warmly, enjoying his presence as they chatted.

Their peaceful moment was interrupted by an unexpected request from Drake.

“Ethan, can you spar with me? I feel like I’m getting rusty!” Drake asked eagerly.

“Sure! You can give it your all!” Aengus agreed, standing up casually, though Aria sulked slightly at the interruption.

Aengus moved to the edge of the campsite, standing calm and composed. “Go all out,” he encouraged, ready to help Drake push his limits.

Drake took his stance opposite, holding his dagger ready, breathing deeply as he concentrated.

“Whoosh!”

His blade glowed with mana, and he vanished in a burst of speed.

With his understanding of space and his Supreme Hunter skill, Aengus tracked each of Drake’s movements effortlessly. He didn’t need to defend, knowing that Drake, despite his effort, couldn’t truly harm him. However, out of respect for Drake’s effort, he blocked the attack with a casual flick of his wrist, surprising Drake.

Drake, unfazed, quickly regained his balance and intensified his assault.

Any ordinary C-Rank would have been overwhelmed by Drake’s relentless attacks, but Aengus dodged each strike with minimal movement, displaying effortless control.

Their sparring drew the attention of several nearby soldiers, who watched with interest from a distance.

“Hey, who the heck are these two monkeys… and whoa, three hot beauties!” a rude voice suddenly echoed, interrupting the spar.

Aengus’s expression darkened as he noticed a group of newcomers approaching, their eyes lingering on Aria with bold, lustful gazes.
