Village Head's Debauchery

The tension in the air intensified, making the atmosphere noticeably heavier.

"Are you certain this is your choice? I can recall my forces this moment if you choose to surrender the Divine Artefact and Patriarch Rylan," Emperor Greroth's voice, as sharp as a blade, sliced through the silence, echoing across the surroundings as he fixed his gaze on Eleanora and Lazul.

His eyes lingered particularly on Eleanora, sensing something peculiar about her yet unable to pinpoint it.

Lazul snorted loudly. "You've shown great disrespect to Sleeping Fox Runaway City; mere pleasantries won't cleanse that. Furthermore, we now have the support of a force stronger than any Grade Two Runaway City could muster, let alone yours. So, the question should be mine: how do you wish to conclude this battle? Which of your gods' chosens will you send to their doom first?" he retorted.

The sharp wind whipped against his robe, causing it to flutter.

Commander Edmar tightened his grip on his weapon, his gaze chilling as he stared at Lazul.

"Your backing? Paradise, is it? Where are they? I don't see them anywhere," Emperor Greroth responded, briefly scanning his surroundings. He wasn't provoked by Lakul's words but rather genuinely intrigued about Paradise and who they were.

"Unfortunately, you won't see them until after this battle. Your fate was sealed the moment you set foot on this territory. Paradise is a force stronger than you can handle, so I advise you to take this battle seriously, or you'll regret every moment," Eleanora replied, a slight smile showing through the small opening in her helmet.

Emperor Greroth frowned deeply. "So if you're confirming the existence of Paradise, does this mean the Vylkr alloy mine exists as well?"

Eleanora and Lakul nodded solemnly in response. They understood what the Trekking Flamingo Runaway City leader was thinking, but they couldn't reveal more, allowing their gods' chosens to prepare mentally for the imminent battle. They knew the Key Leaders of Paradise were likely observing, so caution was paramount.

"It seems both of you have allied with a formidable force. Very well. I will defeat you, advance to the Vylkr alloy mine, and draw them out. From this day forth, the Wanderlust Travelling Tortoise Runaway City and the Sleeping Fox Runaway City will cease to exist," Emperor Greroth declared. He gripped the reins of his magical beast and turned, prompting it to backtrack along its original path.

Observing this, Lakul and Eleanora also turned and departed, leaving their commanders at the frontline.

Commander Sy'ra and Vargoth exchanged solemn looks, understanding the upcoming battle would be challenging.

"Are you ready to meet your end?" Commander Edmar's deep voice was chilling as he stretched his hand and signalled the start of the battle.

Commander Sy'ra and Vargoth followed suit, each giving their own signals. Sy'ra advanced silently, wielding her shield and a Gearweaver sword in one hand. Vargoth ascended into the skies, his broad wings outstretched as he hovered, drawing Edmar's attention.

Suddenly, a cacophony of voices erupted across the battlefield. The footsteps of opposing forces pounded like thunder, shaking the earth and raising dust clouds. The clash of weapons echoed through the air.

BANG! BOOM!

The war had begun.

Receiving no response, Commander Edmar continued, "Very well. Stay silent until your demise." With a firm pull on the reins, the magical beast opened its jaws wide, aiming towards Commander Sy'ra's approaching figure.

ROAR!

Not good!

Witnessing the spark from the magical beast's jaws, Commander Sy'ra swiftly brought her shield up just in time to deflect a torrent of lava-like flames shooting towards her.

Fortunately, the shield was crafted from Vylkr alloys, which were strong enough to withstand such an attack.

While his magical beast engaged the Orc, Commander Edmar immediately aimed his spear towards the soaring sloth demon.

Dragonic Fury Spear - Ember Spiral!

The moment the Gearweaver spear ignited, he hurled it forward. Flames enveloped the spear, creating a vortex that expanded swiftly through the air, reaching Commander Vargoth in seconds.

Soul Dominion Embrace - Spirit Shield!

Commander Vargoth immediately countered with his own technique. Light burst forth from him, expanding and enveloping him in its warmth. When the flaming vortex made contact, it sent him staggering back momentarily before he regained his balance.

Dragonic Fury Spear - Crushing Thrust!

Commander Edmar swiftly arrived beside Commander Vargoth, gripping the descending

spear tightly as he thrust it forward with immense strength. The air split, creating whistling sounds as the spear collided with Vargoth's shield.

BANG!! CRACK!!

Vargoth's spirit shield shattered, fragments dispersing into the air as he was propelled backwards two miles away, his wings unable to halt his descent.

BANG!!

He crashed onto the ground, creating a massive crater fifty-six meters wide. Dust billowed in the air, instantly shrouding his figure.

Skystride technique - Sky Dash!

Commander Sy'ra immediately activated her technique, forming an invisible platform to enter the air. Swiftly dodging to the side, she ascended above the beast's head. Using the momentum of her movement, she propelled herself downwards, gathering enough force to swing her Gearweaver blade at the beast's neck before it could react.

"YOU!!" Commander Edmar seethed angrily, witnessing her action. He hadn't been able to act in time due to Commander Sy'ra's nimble agility. "I'LL KILL YOU!!" He spat, raising his spear

in preparation.

Dragonic Fury Spear - Ember Spiral!

A vortex of flames engulfed the spear once more as he launched it toward Commander Sy'ra.

Skystride technique - Sky Dance!

Commander Sy'ra stepped into the air again, swiftly heading towards his direction.

...

The thick scent of blood quickly permeated the battleground. As predicted, despite the greater numbers of the Wanderlust Travelling Tortoise Runaway City and the Sleeping Fox Runaway City, they were outmatched not only in strength but also in technique, resulting in a higher casualty count among their gods' chosens compared to the Trekking Flamingo

Runaway City.

The casualties continued to mount sharply as the battle raged, with the Trekking Flamingo Runaway City steadily pushing back its adversaries.

"Go and support them. Make sure all eyes are on you," Orion said, glancing at Seth.
