This Is the First Time I've Heard Such a Request!

Quiet!

Once the warhorses beneath them came to a stop, neither the Northern Principality's cavalry nor the Onyx Principality's cavalry immediately resumed fighting.

Instead, they stared at one another and swept their gazes around, trying to figure out what this bizarre situation was all about.

Even Bache, the Northern Principality's highest-ranking commander at the moment, wore a bewildered expression.

"Deputy Commander Bache, wh-what is going on?" Lisen's steward asked.

"I don't know either!" Deputy Commander Bache shook his head.

"Then now..."

"Yes, continue the battle!" Bache suddenly came to his senses.

No matter what, today's plan had to be completed. After paying such a huge price, if they failed to accomplish their mission, he would have no way to explain himself when he returned.

Hearing the horn, the mounted scouts on both sides also snapped out of it!

"Royal Knights, charge..."

"Mounted scouts, for glory, charge..."

With their shouts ringing out, the mounted scouts on both sides prepared to resume their bloody fight.

Neigh! Neigh! Neigh!

However, just as both sides raised their longswords again and prepared to slaughter one another, the warhorses beneath them suddenly neighed in unison once more, their cries instantly drowning out everyone else.

The cavalrymen on both sides, whose battle cries had been shaking the heavens moments ago, froze together. Their open mouths did not even have time to close.

Rumble! Rumble!

The next moment, amid the baffled stares of the knights on both sides, the warhorses once again turned about in perfect unison. Then they spread all four hooves and sprinted wildly back the way
