Chimera Ants (14)

The ones that were behind me revealed anxious looks and Cecilia even wanted to come in front of me.

Shaka would have done the same if he had been able to move, but he was just too exhausted from the fight in the cave.

However, I just raised my hand for Cecilia to stop.

She looked at me with a confused look, but I shook my head with a confident smile and said, "It'll be fine."

Though there was still a trace of doubt in her eyes, she trusted me in the end and moved back.

As General Risen led his troops, he personally cut down all of the ants that were in his way. With each Chimera Ant that he cut down, the morale of his troops surged as they followed him forward.

With how fast they were going, it didn't seem like there was anything that would be able to slow them down.

It seemed like a matter of time before they would reach us and cut us down.

After all, there were more people in General Risen's group than there were in my group.
