Chapter 498: The Final Battle

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The blood moon in the thick clouds illuminated the entire world.

As time passed, the light emitted by the blood moon began to fade, and the dense clouds gathered around once again.

The reddish light in the heavens and earth started to thin.

The shattered city walls were covered with dust and rubble. There was no way to repair them at this moment.

The remaining Succubus warriors looked at the sky with conflicted emotions.

Everyone knew that when the blood moon disappeared, the terrifying giant insects would strike again.

On the city walls, the soldiers breathed raggedly as they recovered from their injuries. The wind whistled through the broken parts of the walls.

No one spoke. They waited for the last red moonlight to vanish.

At that moment, they would welcome their final battle in this lifetime. They were fearless.

The greatest honor for a warrior was to fall in battle as they trampled on their enemy’s corpse.

They lamented that the Succubus Clan would become history. Their lineage would die.

Sadness and desolation surged in their hearts. They gripped their weapons tight and waited to go out in a blaze of glory for their clan.

Their gazes were fixed on the ground, which was covered with the corpses of giant insects.

The red light grew dimmer. A roar sounded in the distance. The cruelty and madness within that raging voice were clear.

Molly watched as the reddish moonlight in the sky gradually faded. She then turned to her companion, Eliza.

“The blood moon is about to wane,” she said in frustration. “Eliza, do you see now? We have no reinforcements. This will be our last fight.”

Molly’s face relaxed into a sad frown. Her tone was melancholic. “I really miss the past… when we used to train and spar together. We learned battle techniques without anything to worry about.”

Chief Morgana used to scold everyone to try harder, while she praised Eliza and Molly because they were the ones who always performed well.

Eliza looked into AAolly’s eyes, and her own emotions churned in her heart.

“Although my talent may be inferior to yours, I work harder than you!” said Molly. She looked at Eliza, and her gaze softened.

She just wanted Eliza to know that it was an honor to be her partner.

Eliza was the most talented warrior of the Succubus Clan and the inheritor of the Succubus Clan’s will.

If possible, they would willingly send Eliza away from here so that she could keep the clan alive. Unfortunately, they had failed.

“If there is a next life, I hope 1 can be your partner again.” Molly looked away. Her eyes were filled with determination.

Eliza’s eyes turned red with unshed tears.

Molly watched as the crimson glow dimmed further.

Although she didn’t understand why Eliza had such blind trust in that human Lord, this war would not be swayed by their will.

“How long has it been since they left the territory? Could they really help break through this ambush?”

“The Lord’s territory is far more powerful than anyone can imagine!” Eliza didn’t waver in her faith. She had witnessed the growth of the Lord’s territory.

She had also witnessed Xu Yuan’s immense power, which made even gods kneel at his feet.

Chief Morgana inhaled sharply when she heard Eliza. She had tried everything to save her clan. She had said her last piece to boost her people’s morale.

Even if the Lord and her hero were powerful enough to make Eliza so devoted to them, could they really help? However, considering their situation right now, what would it matter even if they arrived?

The giant insects were the enemies on the surface, but the God of Light hid behind darkness. He and his minions were the greatest obstacles the clan faced.

It was impossible to imagine the kind of power that would be required to confront a god.

Morgana, who once possessed extraordinary power, fell from the legendary level after being injured. She understood better than anyone else the kind of power that would be needed to face a legendary hero, let alone a god.

While Molly and Eliza argued, the last red moonlight vanished. The blood moon was once again swallowed by the clouds in the sky.

As the crimson faded, a piercing roar resounded through the world. The sound was filled with ferocity and madness.

This was the final battle.

Chief Morgana’s gaze sharpened. Since the outcome was already apparent, the Succubus Clan would go out in a blaze of glory.

“People, the final battle is about to begin! We shall ride to our deaths together!” Her voice echoed through the sky as she looked at the surrounding warriors.

The resounding and powerful words made every warrior raise their head in pride.

When they looked at their chief, who was bruised and bloodied but still possessed an unwavering determination, the warriors didn’t fear death anymore.

The warriors of the Succubus Clan would die on the battlefield. This was their path to glory!

Chief Morgana didn’t hesitate. She stepped away from the city walls, and the surrounding troops followed her toward the city gates.

No one spoke. The rhythm of boots treading on the ground filled the air.

“I have built a secret chamber for our children at the back. 1 hope you can lead those children to safety,” said Molly as she turned to Eliza. “You already belong to the territory. You still have a future. We need a powerful leader to make sure the Succubus Clan lives on, and no one else is as capable as you.” She patted Eliza on the shoulder.

Molly then turned away and merged with the army.

Eliza watched her companion charge forward. She couldn’t see them die!

She wanted to tell them to retreat for a while and wait for reinforcements. But the Succubus Clan would never retreat. Their indomitable will wouldn’t allow it.

After a moment of silence, as the last of the people climbed down the city walls, Eliza followed them.

She did belong to the Lord’s territory, but she was, first and foremost, a member of the Succubus Clan.

Death had never stopped the Succubus Clan. It was a pity that she couldn’t serve the territory any longer, but Eliza couldn’t sit back while her people fought to their deaths.

The walls behind them were filled with cracks, and the city gate stood wide open. The corpses in front of the city walls had been cleared after the battle.

The warriors who climbed down the city walls stayed in their positions.

Chief Morgana, with scars covering her face, gripped her battle sword tightly and stood at the forefront.

Molly stood on her right side.

Footsteps sounded from the side, and all the warriors turned to watch. Eliza stepped forward and walked to Chief Morgana’s side.

“This is my position,” she said to Molly.

The warrior stared at Eliza for a moment and then smiled. She took a step back.

Eliza stood on Chief Morgana’s right.

“Eliza…” Molly’s gaze softened. Although Eliza had joined the despicable Lord, her dearest companion remained unchanged..
