“I have only ever been to it once to register as a mage. Aegis isn’t a toy!” Lia shouted at her. 


“Toy? Ahahaha, yes. It is a toy. A powerful one. And it will end your kind. Unfortunately you would have done well if you were still in the kingdom.” Emily said to her. 


“No, if i was still in the kingdom i would be made into a slave. I am not human. I will never be human. I am a beastmen. A demonic one and i am proud to serve a demon lord who’s a candidate for the throne.” Lia said as she smiled. “But, thank you. You saved us the trouble.” Lia snapped her fingers as all the beastmen in the field disappeared leaving only wounded knights and mages.
