So Far
Ryu's cold gaze swept across the battlefield even as his hand tightened on Guiot's shoulder. A glaive appeared in his other hand, breaking the attack of a soldier who attacked him without hesitation and leaping into the air.
The moment he did so, Ryu knew he had made a mistake. An onslaught of arrays assaulted him from every angle, attempting to burn him and Guiot to ash.
Ryu had never been on a battlefield before. But, he knew what these arrays were. They were the protective mechanisms of the two armies. Only those who were sufficiently powerful would dare to enter the air like this. But, those who were so powerful usually wouldn't act in a battle of this scale because their abilities were too devastating. The battle between such entities would be decided on a different field.
