My Dungeon Life: Rise of the Slave Harem

As the battle raged on, it became increasingly chaotic. The birdkin flew in and the fairies had no choice but to scatter. I hadn’t been sure just how much the birdkin were able to fly, but it seemed that with Celeste controlling the wind, they were able to keep up with the fairies and keep them from casting spells.

“End it,” I ordered Celeste.

The fairies flew away, and then Celeste threw her hand down. The wind that had been accommodating moments before became a torrent that caused all of the birdkin to drop from the sky. A few ended up in freefall to a bad landing, but the majority were able to land peacefully. Celeste’s ability to control the wind couldn’t be matched, but anything she did to help the fairies ended up helping the birdkin. I didn’t want to worry about the sky any more than I had to, so I thought it best if we just shut down that option.

My hopes that the birdkin were useless on the ground were quickly dashed. They were every bit as skilled fighters as the rest. Well, dinosaurs were said to be related to birds, and some birds could be quite the avid predators, even on the ground, so it made sense they were able to fight.

I gave the wave, and our forces finally met with theirs. The towers had archers and pelted the enemy with arrows while supporting our soldiers. Some of the fairies had landed on the towers after the air gave out too, and they threw down spells to cause significant damage. We were holding out pretty well, but I was running out of people to throw at them.

As I was trying to figure out what to do, I heard more bad news from Shao. “Bearkin and Beastkin, incoming!”

Much larger forms began to spill out of the forest. They appeared bigger as life entities in the Sense Life, and most of them were two to three times the size of the wolfkin. Some were even bigger than Osterians. Their speed varied as much as their forms did, but as soon as they slammed into my forces, they began to wreak havoc. The bowman tried to focus on them, but they seemed to throw off the arrow strikes like they were nothing. Even magic didn’t seem to slow them down by much.

A massive beast with tusks that I was guess was an elephantkin charged one of the towers. He slammed into it with a boom. It started cracking, and then fell over. These towers were hastily built in a day. They couldn’t be that strong after all. It was still a shame they were able to be knocked down in a single hit. The fairies flew away, grabbing the bowman as they left. The elephantkin then began charging the next tower.

As he was about to hit it, a form slammed into his side. It was known other than golem Terra. Size-wide, the pair were actually about the same size. They began to slam into each other, the elephant trying to push down Terra, while she pushed back. However, while this guy was the biggest elephantkin, there were others too. They began ramming the towers too. They weren’t able to take them out in a single hit, but after 2-3, the outcome was obvious.

“Send in the Osterians!” I declared.

The Osterians were the only ones who could deal with the beastkin head-on. As they charged the field, taking pressure off of the soldiers, I began to hear the tapping of hooves. The hoovedkin were making their move.
