Leon felt Yuki's despair through the call; he had understood her message. He had to kill Alexei even if his attack causes her death indirectly. Japan would suffer a big loss by losing the two remaining members of the imperial family, but she still was willing to die as long as Leon kills Alexei. Leon also lost his hesitation and made his twenty thousand skeleton archers and wizards move.
When they got close enough, the soldiers left the city to attack, and several choppers also came to offer support. When they were on his range, Leon made all the skeletons attack the space ahead of the soldiers with Fireballs and Fire Arrows. All the snow around melted, and the ground burned until it became dark and lifeless. So many projectiles destroyed over an area that was equal to the size of a big stadium. When they felt the heat, the soldier broke into a cold sweat. All of them remembered the message that Lennart and his teammates passed to the soldiers.
"I will forgive them just one time."
While that message was echoing through their heads, many soldiers run away to the city and toward their homes. They would take their families and friends and leave the city instead of facing an army of monsters that could burn them to a crisp. Before the choppers could approach half of the first group of soldiers had run away, and with each passing moment, more and more felt like it was useless to fight. Still, some of them stayed behind to fight. Leon didn't know why they insisted on fighting even when Leon gave such a clear warning. Perhaps it was loyalty; perhaps they wanted to keep their ranks, maybe they thought Leon would destroy their hometown just for the fun of it. Either way, it didn't change anything to Leon.
"It is a pity…" Leon murmured.
It was a pity to see soldiers dying due to a fool's actions, but Leon didn't think twice when they charged to attack the skeletons. On the second volley of attacks, one hundred and twenty-four soldiers died after being burn to a crisp. It was the first time Leon killed someone, and he just didn't kill one or two, he killed more than one hundred. Still, he didn't hesitate because they were fighting to take his head.
Three hundred soldiers were sent to stop the skeletons on the first wave, one hundred and seventy-six fled, but on the second wave, only ninety appeared. The other two hundred and ten ran away when they saw their companions burned almost instantly.
Even from far away, Leon could see that the vast majority of soldiers were running away. However, he didn't have time for that. The choppers were surrounding him, and they had mages and archers ready to attack. Leon also gave them one chance, he flew upward to avoid their attacks and shot Fire Arrows and destroyed their propellers. The soldiers jumped from the vehicles, while some were trying to make sure that they wouldn't land and hit their heads against the ground, a few tried to attack Leon and three guys managed to hit him with Thunder Arrows.
