"Fire the cannons!" The people of Gontz wasted no time and began unleashing everything they had in their arsenal. Every weapon was loaded and ready for launch.
On the other side, the people of Chrome spotted the incoming projectiles. Panic gripped those on the front lines, realizing they were the first in the path of these deadly missiles. Tensions ran high as the battle escalated.
"Everyone, charge! I'll block all the projectiles!" Charles bellowed, taking charge of the situation as he conjured a barrier. This barrier was a manifestation of his curse.
The curse contaminated anything in its vicinity, rendering the projectiles useless upon contact with the barrier. This turn of events boosted the morale of the Chrome forces.
While Charles maintained the protective barrier, he allowed the commander and the two vice commanders to take control of the troops. As for the pawns and himself, the three went unnoticed in the city of Gontz.
