The supreme sovereign system

Chapter 10 - Formation



Deferio was giving some first aid and after 10 minutes he manages to stand up. Artemis wasn't that strong, however, because of her experience as well as the mark of the hunter, she was able to hit where should be hit to disable an enemy.

Deferio and the 15 soldiers stood there with an awkward expression on their faces. Deferio was the first one to talk he bow and Said with sincerity to Alfonso.

"We are sorry to act disrespectfully against my lord, if you want to punish us, we won't say anything" Said Deferio

Alfonso just smiled, he wanted this result, soldiers in general only respected the powerful, although he wasn't powerful, the person by his side was and, because she acted as his subordinate, the other ones couldn't help but think highly of Alfonso.

"Captain, I know about you, you were a servant for this empire, for that, I must thank you, however, right now you are part of this land, therefore, you serve me, the lord, Am I clear?" Asked Alfonso.

The fifteen soldiers bow and yelled in unison

"Yes, Sir!"

"Very good, actually, the reason why I am here is, first, I want you to tell me about your experience with the horde" Said Alfonso to Deferio.

"Yes, my lord" Said Deferio

Deferio began to tell him about his experience with the horde, however, it wasn't that much of what he knew, however, there was something interesting, in the Jubila forest there were "special" beast, this special beast were basically animals that have some kind of intelligence, like a human, so there were able to make tactics, however, they were very limited.

"This is another unexpected variable…. However, is their intelligence is not at the human level just yet, then my plan can continue like it was" Thought Alfonso.

After their conversation Alfonso began to ponder while Artemis quietly looked and him. Although now was not the time, she didn't forget about her stomped feet.

"Just wait, human, when we get home, you will beg for mercy!" Thought Artemis while making an inner smile.

"Deterio, do you all practice any kind of formation?" Asked Alfonso.

This was an unexpected question. In the battalions, usually, they have their own signature formation, for example, the immortals had the immortals' formation who was known in all the empire, however, to execute it, it was as hard as it could be, that's is because a formation must be specially encrypted in every single member of the members, one little mistake while make the formation crumble.

"Well we usually do it like this, I go in front, the others are arranged in groups of 5, one in the left and another in the right, the other four people are at the very back and use arrows." Said Deferio.

"This…." Alfonso was speechless.

"This… "Formation" …. Even the most inexperience general would know that, in front of wave of enemies that surpasses with numbers, they won't last a second, this is worse than I originally thought" Said Alfonso.

Deferio was a ashamed, he knew that this formation was lacking, a lot.

"I will give you a formation" Said Alfonso.

"Is going to be the lion´s formation?" Asked with bitterness Deferio.

As an ex-soldier, he knew about the lion´s formation, if we have to describe it in few words we should say that it was overwhelming, it focuses in the power of numbers to annihilate an enemy with the most efficiency, however, this formation didn't suit their present situation.

"No…. Given the current situation, the lion´s formation doesn't suit you, I will give you a new formation, however, for this formation to be use as its fullest, you will have to practice 24 hours and have a lot of confidence in your allies like they were your brothers, no mistake can be allowed or else, this town is destined to perish in this month" Said Alfonso in serious tone of voice to Deferio, after that, he didn't let Deferio speak and began to explain the formation, Deferio was astonished.

"This formation!?" Said Deferio.

"Don't lose time, go and tell your fellow soldiers about it and start practicing right now, we don't have much time." Said Alfonso while standing making his way back to the manor.

"My lord" Suddenly Asked Deferio.

"What is it" Said Alfonso without turning back.

"Thank you" Said Deferio while bowing to Alfonso.

"Work hard, the fate of this land is your hands" Said Alfonso while disappearing from their sight.
