The battle lasted for hours and bodies piled upon each other, as agreed Gerald's group, Scott Lockwood's group and the members of the palace of life under Agus command were on standby to prevent outsiders from interfering or people from escaping. They could only watch in horror as both sides slaughter each other, up to the point where there were piles of corpses everywhere and those who were still battling could only trample on those corpses while fighting. Apparently both sides had no reason to retreat, they all wanted to vanquish their enemies to the last member. The death of the paladin and the five disciples of the death mage triggered this hatred for both sides and they were determined to end the other's life, even if it meant their death as well. This was a bountiful harvest for Derik's domain which kept consuming the souls of the dead for its master.
Bang!!
Bang!!
