Chapter 279: War Of Nations IV
[Hidden City]
At the time being Queen Empress Evelyn was together with Pablo, Reinbach, and Marquez Lucio as they all clogged up inside a room that was used during meetings
As Queen Empress Evelyn keep flipping through the files, she then suddenly raised her head as she glanced at the other adults working on the papers
"Ah! By the way Pablo!" She called out
Hearing his name Pablo immediately stopped what he is doing and looked back
"Your majesty?"
"Doesn't there was a time that according to Jack who is now deceased, that the empire provided a new party members for Hibiki... I mean Raguel?" She asked
At that question Marquez Lucio provided the answers
"Your right your majesty! The names were... "
Soon after he took out a paper that contain the names of the participants
*********
Lay - swordsman
Cid - Berserker
Lyka - Archer
Wendy - priestess
Crow - Guardian
*********
"These are the ones" said Marquez Lucio
"Let me see... " Said Reinbach as he came closer at the piece of paper
"From what I heard those adventurers that were with Raguel were also there during the retrieval of Screa Port City, also they commanded by the king to protect the remaining empire people that didn't follow the king when he went to Sysca Holy City" said Pablo as he flipped another paper
Hearing that Queen Empress Evelyn suddenly felt weird all over
"Do you mean that the Empire's survivors were divided into 2 factions? The one who can with the King Emperor and the one who stubbornly stayed on the ruins?" She asked
"It is as you said, even though we don't know what happened to them currently, in fact we had no way of knowing even right now"
The moment Pablo said those words a soldier suddenly came inside of the room and reported something
"Your majesty! Adventurers have arrived, they say that they were the former members of the hero party before they got designated to protect the remaining stubborn people"
After hearing that the room became silent for a moment as all four of them looked at each other in bafflement
Soon after they all went towards the room where such adventurers were held according to the soldiers
When they came in, five Adventurers could be seen standing before them as they bowed and said in alarm
"Your majesty! I knew it that we were right to speculate that you were in this City, after all there were empire armors of some soldiers here, so we just guessed" said the person named Lay the current leader of the group
As they planned to stand up and give respect, Queen Empress Evelyn immediately turned them down as she said
"No need I know all of you Lay, Cid, Lyka, Wendy, and Crow"
Hearing her say their names made all of them to gaped in shock as they looked at how the Queen Empress sits infront of them while the others were just standing behind her
"Tell me what do you want?" She asked
Hearing her Lay suddenly said
"Your majesty! Do you have any plans to rebuild the empire?"
"Rebuild the empire?" Asked Queen Empress Evelyn
"Yes! Please rebuild the empire!"
"Please rebuild the empire! Rebuild their homes"
Hearing their plea even Queen Empress Evelyn was at a loss for words as she looked over towards the other adults seemingly lost on what to do
At that moment she felt a headache growing up again after months of no problematic situation at all
"Ugh!"

[Demon Continent, near Demon king's Castle]
Meanwhile the the battles got even more intense as the soldiers form the front clashed against the hybrid Demon's the got pass through the wall of fire created by Elijah
Waving their swords the soldiers of different kingdoms charged forth towards a hybrid Demon which was two times bigger then them
With a slash some struck them on its ankles whole some cuts through their thighs, but due to this some hybrid demons got enraged as they suddenly grabbed a soldier and threw him across the field while stabbing one soldier with a spear
Seeing that some mages immediately glanced at the enraged demon as they suddenly started suppressing it with bombardment
But due to high magic resistance, the hybrid Demon took little damage as they threw their spear and impaled one of the magician's
"Damn it! Hold your ground!"
"Keep firing!"
"Pour your Mana unto it!"
"Do not falter!"
With a roar the hybrid Demon charged forward in rage as it jumped up high and plans to smash unto the crowd when suddenly a shield drew up and slammed it against the Demon's as some adventurers protected the mages
Soon after the hybrid Demon stumbled a huge battle axe hacked the Demon into two as it killed it that easily
"Adventurers! Aim for their head! That's their weak spots!"
At this command the Adventurers became nimble as a child and started dodging their attacks before counter attacking
On one front king Emperor Ergo suddenly stabbed a hybrid demons before slashing if upwards thus hitting its head and killing it
"Move forward! Mages fall back! Kill anyone who goes beyond the fire!" He shouted a command as he suddenly rolled to the sides and defended against a hybrid Demon's attack
With that clashes and screams soon glowed out on the battlefield as the hybrid demons swarmed up towards the alliance
From the back some of the captains of the mage corps begun shouting some commands
"Aim! Charge! Fire!"
As it commanded several elemental spells was shot out and started raining the place beyond the fire causing various explosion to rung out
On the one side Alduin charged up its cannon as he shouted
"Adamantine Cannon!!!"
With a loud boom a sudden streak of laser shot out and razed the ground infront of him, as for Cyrus he then started to cast high speed lightning spell to atleast bind the enemy for a moment
But still even though he showed such power the hybrid Demon's still charged up as if they have no fear whatsoever
"What is damn creatures? Ahhh!!!" Shouted one of the Beastman soldier before he got stabbed by a spear
Soon another spear came streaking in as it crashed beside Alduin
Hiding behind a shield Xyrus exclaimed
"This things have high resistance in magic my spell aren't dealing much with them"
"So we're my attacks too, the only way to deal with them is through physical contact" said Alduin as he suddenly conjured a railgun and fired it off
Soon after he said
"I'll open up a path, you follow"
The moment Alduin said this words, he immediately threw his gun and conjure a psyionic blade and charged beyond the shield as he hacked unto one of the demons and used his wolf like strength to overpower another one
Seeing such feats, the other Beastman blood in them started to boil in excitement as they charged towards the enemy using any physical attack they can
Up towards a cliff quite different from the previous two locations of different races the hybrid Demon's have broken through their defenses as they begun attacking the elves from left to right, littering the ground with dead bodies
At that moment even Horus begun fighting some hybrid demons as he dodged a spear and disrupting the Demon's foothold by crushing between rocks
"Earthen grab!"
As he caste that Elijah came dashing pass through him and attacked one demon who used it's spear to stabbed forward
Unfortunately due to Elijah's system interface he begun to grew stronger through experience and became a qualified hero
Dodging the spear by a point millisecond Elijah then clenched his fist and punched the hybrid Demon throwing it off completely off the cliff
Grabbing an arrow from the ground that got dropped by a dead elf, he soon only used pure strength to pull the trigger and shot it as he aimed for the head, thus completely killing the hybrid demon as it fell
"Zavkiel! Enter combat mode, massacre level!" Murmured Elijah
Upon hearing that Elijah's eyes dimmed into a state of unconciousness and started to attack the hybrid Demon's with only pure strength, speed and dexterity as the system controls his body
At this moment Elijah killed hybrid Demon's from left and right as he jumped down the cliff and charged in the middle of the wave of hybrid Demon's
Seeing this scene every elf that were there were shocked so much that they couldn't even believe that Elijah jumped in the sea of enemies
"Crap! Hero-sama have jumped towards the enemy!"
"This is bad! Everyone protect the hero!"
"Follow him!"
Soon some Elves who were strong suited in close combat jumped down to assist Elijah regardless of their life since Elijah was not only a Hero, but also the son of Queen Vivian, a crown prince of the elves, and the future of their Elven country
Seeing large number of Elves joining Elijah unto the frontier caused both Horus and Queen Vivian to gaped in shock
"That kid got some spark in him, I'll give him that... That crazy son of a..." Muttered Horus before he stopped what he said infront of Queen Vivian
But nonetheless due to the war Queen Vivian cussed harshly
"That son of a bitch!"
Hearing that even Horus felt shocked by what Queen Vivian cussed that he somehow stopped his casting to look at her in Shock and thought
'Isn't he you son?'
But inspite of her frustration she still have support as she suddenly injected large amount of Mana unto the ground
"Natures fury!!!"
Soon a huge magic circle enveloped the cliff as giant roots begun to grow outwards of the cliff and struck the Demon's through their chest while squashing some of them into a pile of blood
Due to it's gigantic and stable size the Elves saw this as an opportunity as they started running up to the roots and use them as foothold to travel to the battlefield without engaging in a close quarters I. Which they are at a disadvantage at
Using only their strength they begun suppressing the hybrid Demon's on their side
Flying up high above the ground Raguel begin condensing a huge electrified energy balls in the air as he duplicated this ball of energy and shot it down towards the enemy's beyond the fire wall
"Arclight orb!!!"
When it collided unto the enemy numerous explosion rung out at it swept through the battlefield and disintegrated some few of them while most were either injured and we're getting better
"Tsk! This high magic resistant creatures, even a high spell that I casted still dealt insignificant damage... Looks like I have to charge in
But the moment he said that some hybrid demons saw him in the air as they aimed their spears at him
Seeing this miniscule and primitive attacks, Raguel in turn charged down on the other side of the wall and started engaging into a sword fight against them while using his wings to Pierce through their tough skin
Acting as extra blades, this wings of him started cutting the Demon's left and right as it killed them mercilessly
At one moment one of the hybrid Demon's grabbed his left wing and threw Raguel unit the ground before stabbing it's spear
Being thrown like that Raguel immediately blocked the spear before using his momentum as he hacked open the head of the Demon and stricking the other one through its chest
As he got deeper into the enemy's army Raguel begun to take a beating as the hybrid Demon's begun to analyze and adapt to their opponent's thus causing them to act Berserk while having cautious in fighting this using their head to fight them off
Cause of this changes started to occur wherever the place maybe as more casualties form the alliance side appear due to the adaptability of the hybrid Demon's
Even Raguel was blown away due to the immerse punch of one of the Demon's causing him to screech against the ground
"Tch! They are learning... We need to kill all of them quick before it's too late"
But before he could do anything with it a huge attack coming from above bombarded the alliance army with spells causing most of them to gaped in shock
Glancing towards the sky they eventually saw thousands of flying units of hybrid Demon's while some special Demon's that can use magic but have high magic resistance were among them
All in all they were covering the sky causing it to turn dark cause of their thousand numbers
As if that wasn't enough the ground suddenly shook as they looked towards the pillar of light and saw a huge figure sizing up the same heights as a sky scraper, looking like a huge centipede like bridge coming out of the teleportation circle
Upon seeing this all human's that participated the retrieval of Screa Port City seemed to recognize this monstrosity
'The carrier's'
Seeing this only one word could describe such an event, that really imprinted itself deep into their minds thus reminding them of the ancient times
"War... This is what real war looks like"
