Chapter 606 Renewed Spirits
( Max’s POV )
Seeing the ducks fill in the battlefield was pure joy for Max.
The ducks were the pet of the current strongest man in the entire true elites guild, whose arrival signified that guildmaster Neatwit was personally in the house!
As the Mercenary side of the battlefield descended into pure chaos, attracting one nature’s calamity after another, Max felt glee fill his heart as for the first time since the old man had painted the picture of the mad strategy in front of him, Max genuinely began to believe that they could win.
” BLOODFALL CLAN, STOP RUNNING! TURN AROUND AND BE PREPARED FOR THE FINAL CHARGE! TODAY WE ROUTE THE MERCENARIES” Max shouted as the energy behind his voice depicted the whole story.
Max was charged, he felt hopeful and his voice inspired his troops to feel hopeful.
The first and second legions of the Bloodfall clan stopped their retreat as they turned back and got ready to swarm into the battle behind their leader, but not before being joined by warriors clad in far superior armours compared to the Bloodfall standard issue, riding on direwolves as they charged with faces full of happiness and madness into battle.
The elites were here!
” Don’t let them outshine us vampires, CHARGE! ” Max shouted as he charged into battle with a smile as well.
The fucking one eyed vampire defector and the one wrist and one ankled frost giant had bothered him for wayy to long now and the time for retribution had come!
” FOR BLOODFALL! ” Max shouted as he summoned a lightning blast and tried to blast Donatella with it while he jumped straight towards Vas’s head.
Donatella blocked the incoming lightning strike while Vas tried to smash Max with his club, but using Wind Manipulation, Max changed his trajectory mid air to dirt over Vas’s swing trajectory as then from a point-blank range being face to face with the giant Max used [ Dragons Breath ]
*KABOOM*
A terrifying stream of fire which went on for about a hundred metres behind Vas’s back was blown by Max as he did critical damage to the frost giant.
-220,000 CRITICAL HIT!
Vas staggered backwards, his mind spinning by the force of impact as before he could even recover his balance with his one good foot, Max unleashed [ Inferno ] on him from point blank range shoving the giant down to his back.
-80,000
The giant’s HP was rapidly depleting under Max’s relentless assault and as expected, his partner in crime intervened looking at the dire situation.
Donatella charged at Max with a short-sword but Max was in absolutely no mood to play games.

[ Fireball ]
Max began an endless barrage of fireballs, casting 3 every second as he absolutely pelted Donatella and immobilised the god to not being able to take a single step.
This sort of mad assault went on for a full five minutes after which Donatella began questioning as to what kind of monster he was facing as keeping this sort of speed and power for so long was nothing short of impossible.
Thankfully, Vas had recovered in the meantime and attacked Max with Ice Spikes which forced Max to break his relentless assault and give Donatella breathing room.
It was at this moment that the two god’s looked at Max with conviction. The battlefield around them had already turned chaotic and the two of them knew that victory here today was unlikely.
Their best bet was to kill Max and make a run for their lives to come back and fight another day, but before their resolves could even solidify, a *Thud* sound interrupted their line of thought.
Someone had tossed the decapitated head of Gurdan between themselves and Max, and the sight of the decapitated head of the direct disciple of the Mercenary King and the leader of this operation gave the two god’s goosebumps as their resolves crumpled.
” Lord Ravan- Mind if I borrow one of your opponents? I promise to keep it short ” Neatwit asked chivalrously as if asking to take a man’s wife for a dance in a ballroom, even promising to keep it short.
” Ofcourse- take the big one ” Max replied equally graciously as the two shared a knowing nod.
In a split second, as the two Mercenary gods were still recovering from the shock of seeing Gurdan dead, Neatwit attacked Vas while Max closed in on Donatella.
The only thing Vas could do was begin to move his arm to block Neatwit, but before he could bring it above his waist height, it was all over as a second head rolled towards the floor.
On the other hand Max used [ Fake Out ] and pretended like he was going to punch Donatella straight to his face to counter which Donatella put his arms up to block like a boxer, but what Max really did was put his palm on his belly as he said ” Boom ”
[ Blood Explosion ]
Max used blood manipulation to deal critical internal damage to Donatella as the vampire’s internal pressure reached exceptionally high levels and he succumbed to internal organ failure instantly.
Technically Max was not supposed to use his Bloodline powers in public settings, but dead men told no tales whereas a move like blood explosion which did not have external movement of blood through the air was hard to identify as a blood based attack by a third party onlooker, which is why Max chose to use it here today.
The two body’s of the two god’s hit the ground at the same time with a rhythmic * Thud* sound as Max and Neatwit turned to face each other and gave each other another nod for a job well done.
Similar scenes could be seen on the southern battlefront as well, as DarkSorrow and Master Of Chaos combined forces alongside the elites and the Third Legion to make short work of the Ocean Leviathans, as the battle against the mercenaries finally neared its conclusion with a convincing Bloodfall victory as the final result.
