A whirlwind of blood and destruction

Bzzzt Bzzzt— More and more instant space portals began to open within the controlled zone established by Richard. A large number of demon emperors rushed out from the swirling portals, followed closely by more warlords, their weapons gleaming under the chaotic battlefield lights.

"I shall aid the Supreme General, Sakaar!" one of them shouted with unwavering determination.

"Defend the High Lord's son against the Earthly forces! Do not let them advance!!" Others roared, their voices filled with urgency and battle-hardened resolve.

A weak grin formed on Richard's blood drenched face. The overwhelming responsibility that had been weighing down on both him and Sakaar was now slightly alleviated. Yet, despite this momentary relief, Richard's expression did not remain joyful for long...

His eyes widened in horror as the same portals that had brought his allies also began spewing out martial emperors from the Empire of the Great Serpent!
