Chapter 198: New Battle
"B-B-But that...that isn't possible..." Lazar's words fell as he saw her. There in front of him was Elsha and in her hands was her own weapon that was only reacted to her will and power an extension of her soul.
"I thought that you were dead. I saw you die, how in God's names are you here!" Lazar shouted as he brought his own sword that had a golden blade while having a red hilt with a double-headed eagle on the guard.
"You don't recognize me or my sword?" Elsha said as she pointed her blade at Lazar who looked ready to attack.
Upon seeing the sword up close, Lazar felt like he saw a ghost and like lord Vido was playing tricks on him so he told a soldier to hit him to see if he was awake or was this all illusion, though instead of a soldier he was hit with a red gauntlet over the head from Elsha who was slowly starting to get angry.
"Damn Elsha, don't hit so...hard...YOU ARE REALLL!" Lazar started to complain until he realized what he said and who hit him hard.
"Finally, you lost a few of your marbles since we last see each other huh uncle? And here I thought that Grandpa Putnik and Katuzov were a bit forgetful." Elsha grinned as she hugged Lazar who returned it gratefully.
"How are you alive?" Lazar asked as he couldn't help himself.
"With Issei's help, he is the new host of Ddraig and with his help along with God's and Ddraig's I was brought back to life, though I only have 5 years before my soul would be destroyed if I don't find a new source to keep my soul in place and my body from destroying itself." Elsha explained as she gestured for Issei to come over.
"Hello, I'm Issei Hyoudou, the current Red Dragon Emperor." Issei said as he extended his hand towards Lazar who grinned as shook it.
"It's a pleasure to meet you Issei, and I'm grateful for your help in bringing back this spoiled princess. the name is Lazar."
Lazar said with a cheeky grin which got him another punch to the head from blushing Elsha but it was damn worth it as he let a laugh that was followed by the army who could at least relax even for a bit and let the tension slowly back away before the battle.
Even though the reaction of the Army was a huge embarrassment to Elsha, she was still happy to see that the spirit and morale of the troops were in high regard and that was one of the key elements of winning the battle that was no doubt going to be heavy.
"Though Lazar, do you know were Lucy, Arnett and other girls are? They were sent to help fight in the battle as Elsha and I."
Issei questioned but instead of Lazar answering, Issei felt an urge to dodge as the hairs on the back of his head started to rise as from a deadly aura that was heading his way. Katase's sword was sent flying towards his head as she charges, and bears hug him.
"You fucking idiot! Do you know how worried we were when we left you!" Katase berated him. And Issei could help but chuckle at her antics.
"While I do want to hit you repeatedly, I'm glad you are all right, and Elsha you are back to the mortal plane I see." Lucy said with a soft smile Murayama and Chelsea hugged Issei who returned the gesture.
"Yup, I'm back, but now we have a battle to fight. Who is the commander of the Army?" Elsha said as she looked at the heroes' present.
"The current commander of the Army of the Slavic nation is you Elsha. Since you are back, it's only right to give you the command of it. After all, you are the one that has led our armies through so many battles and never lost one. Also, you are the current highest-ranking officer here, and that armor and sword you have is enough of a prof for us all." Dusan said as he turned towards the assembled forces.
"Do you, Blood Knights of Lord Vido, Guardsman of Lord Perun and Wing Knights of Lord Veles, Valkyries of Lord Odin! Heroes of old and warriors of our fatherland and of our Old Father Triglav! Do you accept the command of Elsha, the Red Dragon Empress, the Supreme General of Slavic Faction!?
The VICTOR of 1000 battles! The War Hero of Fallen GATES!" Dusan questioned in a strong and powerful voice that was heard easily by everyone present.
And the answer was almost instant. The huge roar of approval was the indication that was needed by the heroes present to bow down towards Elsha as everyone else followed the suit.
Seeing the sight of the army that was full of powerful warriors and that held honor to the highest regard with their duty, Elsha couldn't help but let a tear go down her cheek as she smiled.
"Then as your commander, I order you this. TO BATTLE POSITIONS! THIS IS A DAY WHERE THE BLOOD OF THE DAMN WILL BE SPILLED AND THE DAY WHERE SOME OF US WHO FALL WILL FEAST IN VALHALLA AND PRAV! IN THE NAME OF OUR LORDS AND OLD FATHER! WE WILL NOT FALL HERE! THE CITY OF IRKUTSK WILL NOT FALL TODAY FOR WE WILL DESTROY OUR ENEMY AS WE DID ALL THOSE YEARS AGO! TO VICTORY!"
Elsha roared as she released her power for the first time in 200 years and was delighted to find that power increased even if she was only in the gear, which she had no doubt that Ddraig, Issei and Slavic God's had something to do about it.
The Roar of approval was all that Elsha needed to start forming a new plan of battle and to re-arrange the units under her command. Which all unit commanders did and the new battle set up was quickly realized and awaited for an enemy charge.
