[Jack! I've been contacting you, what's the situation there?] Yule said abruptly.

[Captain, I'm sorry, but all of us are occupied. where are you?] Jack said.

[We're on the eastern border. we came here as soon as we received the message. what's the situation in the capital?] Yule said while slaying hordes, and silently receiving scratches from the Belial monster.

[Captain, it's chaotic here. Hordes keep on coming. The knights and mages are all exhausted.] Jack said hopelessly.

[what about the civilians?] Yule asked worriedly

[Annah evacuated them, and Leo is on their way to assist you there,] Jack said.

[Good job, keep up the good work. what about the royal family?] Yule asked.

[They're safe, they command the royal guards and knights to help the evacuation process.....]Jack said and a sudden silence from Jack, Yule was about to speak because she thought that Jack was done with his report. when suddenly [...Yule, be safe alright? I need you to be safe and sound when you come back.] 

Yule nodded. [I will. focused on your duties, we'll get there as soon as we got the Hordes under control here.]

A moment later the reinforcement arrives and the healers help the civilians to heal their injuries. Eli desperately rushes to Yule and sees her body full of blood.

"Yule, I told you. I should--" Yule cut what he was saying and pointed at the civilians who were recovering.

"Thanks to you. all of them are alive," she said and looked at Eli. She smacked him in the head less aggressively compared to earlier.

"Next time, listen to me," she said and went to the civilians who were injured.

'I'm glad, you're safe.' he said to his mind while caressing his head.

The Hordes in the east have been subdued, and they are no longer appearing everywhere. Leo provides her with armor, which she quickly puts on.

The destruction in the Kingdom was unbearable to see. Yule, Eli, and Leo return to the capital city as soon as they finish dealing with the East. This scene was more terrifying to watch, the civilians, even knights are lying on the ground, lifeless and cold. the buildings that once stood up high and lively are now destroyed and depressing to see.

"So, the capital was the target of the attack?" Yule said, noting that when she saw the situation in the capital, she nearly didn't recognize the city due to the devastation. She observed the knights take care of all the dead and gather them in one spot. The grieving family and friends are sobbing as loudly as they can to ease the feeling of loss.

Yule's chest tightened, clutching her chest as she saw the scenery. she can feel all the pain, devastation, and grief just by looking at them.

"Who...Who was behind this?" Yule asks coldly, expressionless but the tone is shaking furious. Annah, Leo, and Jack shake their heads to say that they don't know. She looks down thinking who could possibly attack their Kingdom by using a demon.

As the dark clouds gathered in the sky, a sense of unease filled the air. The atmosphere grew heavy with anticipation as the first drops of rain began to fall. Suddenly, a brilliant flash of lightning illuminated the sky, followed by a deafening clap of thunder that reverberated through the surroundings. When lightning struck and thunder was heard many times on the open field, everyone was scared and became quiet as they listened to the terrifying sound of thunder. the citizen was trembling with fear 

In that instant, the world seemed to freeze as the blinding light revealed a hidden realm. From the heart of the storm, a swirling vortex of darkness emerged, crackling with malevolent energy. As the tempest raged on, the vortex widened, revealing grotesque figures clawing their way out from the depths. As the demons spread their wings, casting dark shadows over the land, their eyes gleamed with a hunger for chaos and destruction. They unleashed their powers, causing flames to erupt and buildings to crumble. The air crackled with dark energy as they reveled in their newfound freedom.

"Everyone! Evacuate the citizens to a safer place. Hordes are coming!" Yule commanded the knights.

"Eli!" Yule called for Eli and he nodded as if he knew what he needed to do. "Annah, heal all the knights and mages first. I need them." Yule said and Annah gave a nod and started to act

"Jack, stop all the hordes and keep them from reaching the evacuation area," she shouted, as Jack dashed to the field and slaughtered the Hordes to keep them out from reaching the evacuation area. 

She turns to Leo and looks him in the eyes. "Leo, summon your golems and lead them to the location of the lightning; we need to identify the source."

As the lightning crackles through the stormy sky, Leo, a master of earth manipulation, steps forward with purpose. With a focused gaze and a determined expression, he raises his hands, palms facing the ground. The earth beneath his feet responds to his command, quivering with anticipation as if obeying his every whim, the earth rises and molds itself into a towering figure, a golem formed from the very elements around him.

The golem takes shape, its body solid and imposing, crafted from compacted soil and rock. It stands tall, its form resembling that of a guardian, with broad shoulders and a sturdy frame. The golem's eyes, glowing with an inner light, mirror the intensity of the lightning that streaks across the sky.

With Leo's guidance, the golem comes to life, infused with his will and purpose. It steps forward, each footfall resonating with the power of the earth. As it moves, the ground quakes beneath its weight, creating a path towards the area where the lightning strikes.

As the golem reaches the area where the lightning strikes, it stands tall and resolute. It acts as a conduit, absorbing the electrifying energy of the lightning strikes, channeling it through its earthbound form. The golem becomes a beacon of power, harnessing the very essence of nature's fury.

While Leo was using his golems to go where the lightning was striking, he concentrated as his eyes turned to white. Yule was guarding him to keep the Hordes at bay. because Leo has to concentrate to figure out who is to blame for all of this devastation He can see through his golems.

"I can see him," Leo said. Yule looks at him.
