In this mystical world. Amongst the seven continents of colors, only the Red and Purple continents have knights.
The former has the Empire system and the latter has the Kingdom system.
In the Purple Continent.
The lowest-tier Knight Corp in a Kingdom consists of only ten knights. Low-tier Knight Corps has thirty knights.
Medium-sized Knight Corps have sixty knights while high-tier Knight Corps have a hundred knights and above.
Caden chose a medium-sized Knight Corp, and its captain was extremely cooperative with Caden.
After all, he has the totem of the King, and he has also proven himself worthy of commanding a medium-sized Knight Corp.
Captain Gareth was present when Caden humiliated Jerald Ryder. It was extremely shocking.
It was almost unbelievable, his mastery of two House Ryder's style techniques was just too profound and perfect.
No mana fluctuations were detected.
Captain Gareth stood beside the young master. He's a colossal figure, standing six feet and seven inches tall.
Caden, who happens to be seventeen years old presently, stands at six feet and two inches tall.
He would later grow three more inches when he reached twenty-two years of age.
Captain Gareth's muscles expanded. His Sword Level is that of a peak Sword Elite, a pseudo Sword Master, someone with decades of experience.
A higher-tier Knight.
Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!
Below them, the earth shook, and the ground quaked. Citizens of the Eastern Sea Village were already panicking.
"The beast tide has begun" Captain Gareth muttered. His arms folded, his gaze fixed on the world below.
Caden who was a military general in his second past life, could think of military strategies like it's nothing.
Captain Gareth's brought a total of sixty-five knights, a few remained with him if he needs to charge forward.
Caden brought a total of a hundred and fifty soldiers as well. Soldiers were very different from Knights.
Knights are warriors who were trained in the ways of both sword and mana, often noblemen in that kingdom. But soldiers are warriors who train the swords.
Most don't have Mana Cores and if they do. Their Mana Aptitude is very low, below 1%
They're mostly commoners who joined for the salary.
Captain Gareth's Mana Core has an Aptitude of 20%
There were dozens of soldiers and knights hidden behind the scenes, waiting for the perfect time to strike.
They seemed undetected and because of that. The beast tide continued, with Snow Goblins charging towards the Eastern Sea Village in unison.
There were hundreds of Snow Goblins, many held long wooden clubs while others grabbed spears and daggers. Filled with bloodlust and the desire to rip the villagers to shreds.
Watching this, Caden showed no emotion. His indifferent expression remained firm, as he folded his arms.
Captain Gareth glanced at Caden for a second, he was dumbfounded. Caden's patience.
Caden's meticulous plans and military schemes were beyond his imagination.
The fact that Caden is still a seventeen-year-old makes it even shocking.
The distance between the beast tide and the Eastern Sea Village was diminishing every second.
Although Morningstar Kingdom built a strong wall to protect the Eastern Sea Village years ago.
But it's not enough to protect them from the beast tide.
Caden knows it too well. He has seen the aftermath of this calamity; hundreds of villagers will be slaughtered by this tidal wave.
He had to protect them, it's the task of the Primordial System.
His lips twitched for a second, "Captain Gareth," Caden called out. "Yes young master Caden, what are your orders?" Captain Gareth asked.
Caden softly exhaled "Eastern Sea Village is part of the Morningstar Kingdom, if we can't even protect them…"
"How would the other supreme and super kingdoms respect us?" Caden asked. "The archers should be ready" Caden commanded.
Captain Gareth nodded with a smile, due to the chaotic blizzard. One could barely see in this stormy landscape.
Captain Gareth had to light a torch, he lifted the torch into the air. At that moment, all the knights and soldiers hidden received the signal.
The archers prepared. Each arrow was laced with both mana and poison, making its firepower even more offensive.
The landscape had already been encircled by the forces of Caden Ryder. He even set traps.
He waited patiently, his eyebrows furrowed. "Wait….it's coming," He muttered. His heart is tranquil.
Boom!
A Snow Goblin who was charging forward stepped on a landmine. It was engulfed by the flames.
The flames spread rapidly, burning other Snow Goblins that were close by. Screeches filled the air.
Screams and wails echoed through the mountain range. Caden's eyes gleamed. "Fire," He issued his command.
Captain Gareth nodded and the signal was given.
In a split second, hundreds of arrows rained down upon the beast tide. Dozens of Snow Goblins were dying every minute.
"Let's go" Caden waved his hand. He dived down the mountain cliff, his actions shocked Captain Gareth.
Caden descended from the mountain at lightning speed. He landed on the ground, if he didn't have the Primordial Dragon Physique.
He wouldn't have dared attempt such.
His human physique has already been altered. His bones hardened, possessing a higher-tier healing factor.
Small injuries meant nothing to him.
Captain Gareth couldn't dare try such. He climbed down the mountain and his knights followed him.
Seeing that the young master Caden has descended from the mountain cliff with Captain Gareth.
Only a few soldiers and knights remained hidden. They were instructed to stay hidden in case any Snow Goblin tried to escape back.
They were the final lethal assassins prepared by Caden as a last resort.
Without hesitation, Caden rushed towards the scene. Gently unsheathing his sword from his scabbard.
His eyes flickered with uncertainty, with his speed quadrupled. He became even faster, like he was merging with the blizzard itself.

The momentum of the charging soldiers and knights died and their movements came to a halt.
They stared at the battlefield in disbelief. Astonished by what was happening, Snow Goblins were dying like flies.
And Caden was the one killing them.
"My goodness, what the hell is this kid" Captain Gareth exclaimed. They had lost the zeal to fight.
There was no need for them to fight anymore.
These Snow Goblins were simply the prey of Caden Ryder.
"He's too young. Young Master Caden is too strong!" A voice echoed from the crowd.
After a few minutes of watching. There was nothing left to kill, and he stood firmly, his body stained with blood that never belonged to him.
His blade dripped with the grey blood of Snow Goblins. Piles of corpses surrounded him.
"So easy, to think they were this weak" Caden wiped his face as he softly exhaled. His eyes were focused on the transparent cyan panel floating before his eyes.
