An Unexpected Encounter

Even though Azief knows the conclusion of this battle, he still looks at it. By now, he firmly entrenched himself as an observer.

And like he had expected after Arial massacre that vanguard unit, the Demon Army sent more soldiers.

Arial fought with all of his might but in the end he was alone. And he only practices a few years. It is not like he had practiced it all of his life. 

He fled toward the palace and run inside, the demon soldiers following at his trail. 

Even as he was running toward the palace, the demon soldiers, throws spears, spells and shoot arrows at him

They broke into the castle with him, blood-hungry and enraged. Azief saw that Arial knew if he wants to survive he need to restrict their movement and not let them to have the space.

For an hour Arial evaded them using the secret passages and trap doors he had uncovered during his solitary years in the Empire.
