"Halt" the shout came from one of the soldiers.
"No need for needless killing just ask your king to come here or one of the two remaining aide or relay my message to someone who can get to where they are" William said as he measures his step towards them all the while keeping his eyes looking into the unknown distant.
"I will advise you boy to think very well about what you have done and what you think you about to do, it won't end well for you and everyone you love" One of the soldier that seem to be one of the highest authority here at this west gate said toward the boy walking casually toward them.
*Flashback to Ten minutes earlier*
For the soldiers stationed here at the west gate, today started out as bland as it normally is, ninety percent of the populace of the royal city make use of the south and eastern gate, only officials occasionally make use of the west gate, the northern gate is entirely off limit even to high ranking officials.
About three hours or so ago the King's spear make use of this gate to go out of the city in a hurry. So there was a bit more soldiers stationed here to welcome him back but who could have thought that instead of the King's spear to appear it is an unknown boy that appeared demanding for their king or one of the other aides.
"What did this country bumpkin just said, we should bring the king here, he must be tired of living"
Laughter follows.
"Shut up you morons, you all should know by now that all these Yanci had had their brain mess with, so none of them thinks right, offer your pity to them and treat them with 'kindness' at all time" Another soldier on the wall said and more laughter follows.
After about a minute of laughter from the soldiers stationed at the top of the wall of the gate, they finally try to get the boy's information till one of them suddenly notice that this innocent looking boy was holding on to the head of the King's spear that they were wait for.
The next minute they are trying their best to lock on the boy with the mounted guns over the wall, but unfortunately for them, the boy was just too fast to be lock on.
And a minute after that, the gate they were so proud of and thought to be impenetrable was then and there slice though like hot knife through butter.
And a minute after the gate, the seventeen soldiers on the wall was the next to be sliced through like paper meeting the edge of a scissors.
And a minute after that, all hell broke loose, sound of gun everywhere, all trying to kill one single boy who was carrying the King's spear head by the hair with his left hand while his right hand keeps reaping life of more soldiers.
And a minute after that, they realize they have lost their commander and over fifty soldiers have also lost their head.
And a minute after that, the rest finally realized that they are face to face with a demon that's obsessed with beheading everyone that block his path or point a gun at him.
And a minute after that realization, they also realized that all this killing could have been avoided if only their commander had listen to the boy's demand and get the major general to come and meet the boy, where was that stupid pride they were talking about.
"Sound the city alarm, we will try holding him here" the next minute after that, the second in command shout his order to a soldier at the tower like structure that stood as the bridge between the inner city and the west gate.
It's after this order they finally figured out that their only option is to alert the entire city to what is happening here while they try to keep the boy from getting to the tower bridge and fully entering into the inner city where he can easily disappear.
*Back to present*
Every single soldier that remains in this gate gather together at the front of the tower bridge. The only passage to the inner city, they could have destroyed the bridge like structure but then there will be nowhere for the reinforcements to pass through to get to them.
A civilian may say while not destroy the bridge and let the reinforcements to cross using flying shuttles but every soldier stationed at any of the four gates knows that two kilometers before the gate and a kilometer after the gate, there are anti flight force field in place.
It was put in place to fight against unauthorized plane or jet from leaving the city or come into the city, but now it seems it will be their own undoing.
But then again, can't they switch it off, a machine or device like that will come with an off and on button right? Well yes it does have an off and on button but unfortunately they are installed next to the gate itself.
And currently to get to that button they will have to go through that demon boy first which is next to impossible and guarding this bridge is also another death sentence for these soldiers because that demon boy can cut them up before they even blink and none of them seems to be able to defend against his strike.
Fortunately for them, this demon boy does not seem hell bent on passing through the bridge.
It's as if he was saying for every minute that pass without their reinforcements showing up, he will move ten meter closer towards bridge, and it's will be more dead soldiers.
"Where are the reinforcements, it been over ten minutes already" The second in command says beneath his breath, this are moment he truly hate been a soldier and guard at the any of the gates, most security agencies in this royal city will definitely think the alarm is a prank or a joke of some kind because truly who in their right mind will dare attack the royal city.
[Any reinforcements coming will be out of duties and not out of emergency, they may have continued to sound the alarm to show how serious things have become over here but the alarm can only be used once, only God knows who the hell set that idiot rule] the second in command thought to himself.
