Volume 2. Chapter 19. War Of Determination

It has arrived where the war will take place, the three demon kings and others, as well as the Raseon troops are hiding behind a hill not far from the city of Tars.

They saw a gathering tent of united soldiers with several kings.

"We just need to wait for the sun to rise now," Mansa tells the others.

"Is this necessary?" Lumina was surprised, she was given battle armor.

"This equipment can protect you, we must also protect the royal blood. Even though you have been exiled, the fact that there is royal blood flowing in your body is the point." Vail said that he didn't want Princess Lumina to die.

"We don't want you to join the war, Princess Lumina," Cini informed her, for complaint.

"…." From the hill, they saw an Arunika or Sunrise event.

"It's beautiful." Lumina was amazed by the process of the sun slowly emerging from the edge of the world.

"Your world has its uniqueness, and the air here is still so clean and fresh." Mansa came to Lumina who was enjoying the view.

"This is my experience over the years in your world, it is an honor for me to be here to help you." Rii came to the two of them, Vail and Cini also came.

They saw a stunning sunrise event.

"This was short but thank you all." Mansa felt so happy. He said this with great joy to Vail, Cini, Rii, and the others.

"Sorry to interrupt…the king asks everyone to gather." A soldier comes to them and tells.

They gathered and listened to a speech given by King Ligt to encourage his troops.

Just when the sun was next to their ears, an eerie trumpet sound appeared accompanied by a thick black circle.

The demon army came from there running and immediately attacked without giving any time.

Many soldiers immediately died because of this ignorance.

"Don't just stand still and attack quickly, that devil." The King Cluster was annoyed with the soldiers he led.

Not only the Cluster king but all the kings were also annoyed that so many soldiers ran away in fear. They look more like flies that have been given poison.

"Sorry to keep you guys waiting." Ryzen came waving his wings to intimidate the ancestral troops.

"...." The sound of a wolf's howl sounded so loud and startling.

"Black Dragon and giant wolf, what happened? This isn't war anymore." King Nollant thought the two creatures were the ancestors' subordinates.

"Okay, with this the Efutor alliance members have all arrived," Etina informed.

"As an earth fairy, Vail. You will lead and command us." Etina appointed Vail in command.

"Why me?" Vail was surprised, Etina showed himself.

"That's natural, here. You were the one who built this alliance, remember when I and King Ligt at that time." Mansa tries to remind Vail of the situation where King Ligt finds it difficult to face his people.

"Alright, I just need to ask you guys to come forward and attack, right?" Vail said in a tired and complaining voice.

"If that's all you ordered, it would be the same as sending us to death," Etina informed.

"I'm not good at this at all, please don't complain…" Vail received the request with great concern.

"The giant wolf and black dragon fought back, creatures that the united army found difficult to overcome. Elf Race, this is not beneficial to your terrain because there are no trees."

"I want you to support us with your arrows, Raseon troops. You guys can do whatever you want."

"The rest will help the hero Mansa defeat the ancestors…"

"DOES ANYONE OBJECT?!" Vail said so loudly.

"If it is--"

"Vail, how long are you going to talk?" Cini raised his left hand. Sigh.

"If you keep talking, the big event is over…the united forces can't guard Mansa," Rii told Vail to get started.

"Elf troops, fire your arrows." Vail ruled Sela's group as the opener.

"Contact!"

Vail shouted strongly and ran into the battlefield. The others were confused, except for Rii, Mansa, and Cini. They immediately knew the previous words were an order to advance, after seeing Rii, Mansa, and Cini running after Vail.

On the other hand, all the kings were confused by the giant wolves and black dragons that attacked the demon army.

"…." Zein killed the demon army with just a glance.

"HAA!" Lumina cuts off the demon's head with the sword Cini gave her.

"Princess Lumina, the hero is before us." Zein saw Mansa who was so far away from the united troops.

"This armor makes it difficult for me to move freely." Lumina, who was running to reach Mansa, began to feel complaints about her battle clothes.

When Zein and Lumina were heading towards Mansa, a very large sword swing almost hit them both.

"…." Zein fell because Lumina managed to jump towards Zein and save them both.

"To think you could escape, a hero who oversleeps and a child who thirsts for her father's approval."

"My name is Poriy, the last general. As well as the devil—"

The demon general jumped back.

"I won't let you hurt my little brother-in-law, you rotten devil."

"Big brother-in-law, Miss Nita, Miss Sara." Zein looked behind him and saw Erick, Nita, and Sara wearing their battle gear.

"You two, leave this to us…we have some business to do with this demon general." Nita asked Lumina and Zein to immediately rush to the hero Mansa.

"You are already old, human life is so short and fast." The demon general taunts Erick, Nita, and Sara.

"Vail once said, don't look at things from the OUTSIDE!" Nita ran so fast and managed to injure the demon general, even though it was only a scratch.

"Huuu...I haven't done this for a long time, my whole body has become stiff and not as agile as before." Nita's left hand was holding her right shoulder and she felt so sore and tired.

"You should do what they show," Erick told and reminded Nita.

"If I'm not mistaken, they say exercise is to stretch the body." Sara, who didn't do that, was also curious about the effect.

"Let's avenge Una and Cindy's deaths."

Erick and Sara prepare to attack from the front. Nita prepared to attack from behind the demon general.

They all fought against that unreasonable army. There were more casualties on the United side because they could only run away.

On the other hand, all residents who did not participate in the war were shocked by an appearance that they did not know about.

"What's that?" Clara looked up at the sky.

"…..." everyone saw a picture in the sky of the war that took place in the city of Tars.

"Queen..." one of the soldiers came and wanted to report about the incident.

"Is this also magic?" Queen Amira was so confused. She also saw the war that was going on from what her saw in the sky.

They looked on in confusion and witnessed the war. Like someone watching TV.

They continued to watch the Union troops and Gerna die one by one.

"…." Clara and her daughter Livia witnessed the war.

Everyone cried, the number of troops to defeat the ancestral army was already small. They could only prepare for a new day as slaves of their ancestors.

The war continued for two days without stopping, the king of the united alliance only had three people left alive.

"If it's like this, they'll just die." Eye bags were visible on Queen Amira's face, not only hers. some people also have eye bags too.

The people's minds were confused by what they witnessed and saw in the sky. The war that took place in the city of Tars was like the final war for peace.

The city of Tars is no longer in shape, there are no buildings or anything that is still intact.

"Say it, light, hope." Queen Amira remembered the words of the masked figure's voice.

"…." Amira walked towards the high hall so that all people could see and hear her.

"Everyone please listens to my voice," Amira said in a very high voice, and almost every time she said it made her breath run out.

"Queen?" Tiara and her son heard Queen Amira's screams.

"We were all almost driven crazy and ran away after seeing that vision, the war hasn't stopped for two days ago." Amira started to feel her heart beating very fast.

"I beg you, to make a wish—"

"Down! You better come down!" One of the people who was fed up asked the queen to come down from the balcony.

"We don't want to waste time just following your baseless words!" One of other people was not happy with this nonsense.

"Please everyone listens to my words." Amira was so hurt, that her people even asked her to come down.

"Please listen, I beg you." Amira took off the crown on her head.

Everyone who saw this was made silent about this.

"I beg you, just listen to this once. I know I am someone who comes from a village outside this kingdom." Amira held back her tears so that the words, she was about to say wouldn't make her cry.

"I want all of you to hope and give them trust. If we will win and achieve victory, for the sake of the future."

"I ask you all to do that, I know these words and sayings don't make sense and have nothing to do with them and even have no effect. But at least we have hope in the warriors who are willing to die to defend our future."

"Queen..." Clara, who heard that from her balcony, started to do what her queen said.

"Livia, let's hope that your father and uncle come home safely and win this." Clara invites her child to hope.

Some people realize that hope is the only thing they can do.

"…." Everyone started to put their hands together to make a fist and hope.

A miracle came, namely the demon king's army began to lose a lot, and even the circle that released the demon army closed again.

"We won!" King Mitlant cheered happily.

"The demon army has lost, we win!"

"Soldiers, tell the troops to—"

King Mitlant stopped speaking because he heard laughter from ancestors.

"I congratulate you on being able to swing your sword, for three days without stopping."

"But it is a start."

A very large and high circle appeared in the sky.

"Now what? At least let us rest!" King Mitlant was so upset and couldn't control his emotions.

He ran away on his horse but was immediately eaten by a dragon that came out of the circle.

"Alpha, it was the dragon that ate your flock." Ryzen immediately told him.

"AAA...!" Alpha shouted and the herd howled, the sound could be heard in the Gerna kingdom as well as the Trus kingdom.
