Merit Points Inside William’s Domain

A month had passed since Lira, Ephemera, and to a certain extent, Cherry, had met up with William.

Many things had happened since then and among them was the victorious news of the alliance having won against the Demon Army in liberating the Zoterra Empire, which was the first Empire to have fallen into Felix's hands.

The Pope of the Holy Order of Light wasn't stupid. She knew that Ahriman could not interfere as he had with the port city of Alabaster for a short period of time, so she immediately mobilized the army of the Holy Order, alongside the Alliance, and fought a grueling month-long battle with Felix's army.

During this battle, a third of the Demonic Army was wiped out. All of the soldiers of the Zoterra Empire had died in this battle because they had been forced to fight regardless of will. Ahriman had corrupted all of them, so they fought like berserked warriors, which had dealt a devastating blow to the armies of the Alliance.
