The intensity of this battle had exceeded any he had ever experienced before, testing the limits of both his mental and physical endurance.

His body ached severely now, fearing that once he sat down, he wouldn't be able to get back up.

He had no idea how the Demon King had managed to hold on...

Standing beside him, a mercenary guard holding a musket looked tense, his eyes fixated on the demon emitting an ominous aura.

Seeing the nervous bunch, Alex was afraid they might misfire, so he quickly raised his voice and shouted.

"Don't be afraid, that's one of our allies!"

The mercenary standing beside him whispered.

"But... do they think the same?"

As he said this, he could feel the female demon looking at them as if they were insects—those crimson eyes twinkled with an elusive gleam.

The atmosphere between the two groups gradually became delicate.

The Dark Night Elves who emerged from the forest were expressionless, their emotions indecipherable, while the Little Demons flying in the sky were unabashedly malevolent, all wearing mischievous expressions... after all, pranking was in their nature.

The one who should have been speaking up, the Demon King, was now silently riding on a spider, seemingly waiting for something.

What was he waiting for?

Was he weighing whether or not to keep his promise?

That was the nervousness in everyone's heart, and also the biggest uncertainty looming over both armies at the moment...

Through the dense fog, there were very few who could see that he had fallen asleep.

If the Demon King's minions were to order in his stead at this moment, it would be a catastrophic blow to everyone present...

And even if nobody did so, there was still the possibility of an accidental discharge on either side at any time.

Standing in the ranks, Alex's thoughts were racing, and suddenly he had an idea, quickly turning to Phinis.

"Phinis! Cast a spell on my throat to amplify my voice!"

Phinis hesitated, nervously said.

"Ah?! But, I've never tried—"

Alex grabbed his shoulder and shouted uncompromisingly.

"There's no time for you to try slowly! Now, immediately, cast it on me!"

Amplifying one's voice was not a complex magic.

However, Phinis himself was only a black-iron level Mage, proficient in a few fire attack spells, and other spells were half-baked.

Not to mention, the voice amplification was a wind magic.

Unable to withstand his leader's strong demands, Phinis finally gritted his teeth, waved his magic wand, and pointed the tip at his throat.

"...voice as resonant as a bell."

In an instant, Alex felt like his throat was on fire, as if flames were shooting out!

This spell was somewhat problematic.

It was said that some novice mages, when using magic cross-elementally, would unintentionally integrate familiar elements into inappropriate spells.

Fortunately, the effect was still there.

With no time to hesitate, Alex reached to his waist and drew his sword, raising it above his head and shouting loudly.

"Victory!!!"

No one responded.

Not just the Demon King's forces.

Even his own soldiers were hesitant to do so, their eyes fixed on the nearby Demon King's forces.

Only the true victor had the right to declare victory, and that man, embodying all authority, sat silently.

Seeing the unresponsive battlefield, Alex did not stop but resolutely shouted the call for "victory" once more.

Fortunately, this time, his call was met with a response!

And it was a response that echoed far and wide!

"Victory!!!"

"Aaah aah aah aah!!!"

"Lord Demon King is awesome!!!"

"Oh oh oh oh! Little Demon! Mine!!"

"Wait, the Dark Night Elf seems pretty good too?!"

"Shahaha... hehe..."

The creaky shout was undoubtedly a cheer of victory.

Although no one could understand what the skeleton soldiers were yelling, seeing them raise their weapons above their heads made it easy to guess it was a response from the human allies.

"What the... it turns out they were allies."

Flying above, Yousi sighed with lack of interest, muttering a complaint.

"Damn, thought I'd have a feast."

Chaos creature's flesh does not taste good, and moreover, is inedible.

It seems Lord Demon King is not evil enough.

Of course, it might not have been Lord Demon King's original intention, maybe his minions were led astray by cunning humans.

"Mi Xi, what do you think Lord Demon King is thinking? He's won, yet he hasn't said a word? And the Queen seems odd too... Mi Xi?" After waiting a long time with no response from Mi Xi, Yousi shouted loudly, "Hey hey hey! Can you hear me?!"

"Yikes!!!" Mi Xi, who had been zoning out, was startled and almost fell from the sky.

Seeing Mi Xi's pale face and wobbly stance, Yousi tilted her head skeptically.

"Did you eat something bad..."

Under that suspicious gaze, Mi Xi could no longer keep a straight face and burst into tears with a "Wah".

Seeing Mi Xi crying loudly, Yousi immediately panicked and fumbled for words.

"Hey, don't cry! What exactly happened?!"

"Yousi! Save me! No—I—I think I'd better just crash into something! Please tell Her Majesty that Mi Xi will always be loyal to her!"

Seeing Mi Xi's eyes close as she plunged toward the ground, Yousi hurriedly grabbed her wing, using all her strength to pull her back up into the sky.

"What's gotten into you? Yikes—! So heavy! Have you been eating behind my back?!"
