At that moment, all eyes turned toward Jack as he looked so damn confident!

The legion of shadow beasts was rushing at him, claws ready to tear and maws prepared to devour. But, he didn't even bother to take a defensive stance as he playfully winked at the creatures.

The few players miraculously still alive cried out:

"The balls on this guy!

"

"Is he just going to stand there?!

"

"Oh yes, he freaking will. No **s given!

"

But just as the enemies were about to reach him, the florist finally completed the ritual. Instantly a shockwave of holy energy spread in a ring shape, sending all the shadows violently tumbling backward.

— Screech! —

The creatures screeched in pain, for this energy was their nemesis. Yet, this was only the beginning!

Light began to radiate outwardly from the magician. It began to pulsate, inundating the surroundings with a warm glow that gave hope to the humans. Then he shouted a few more words of power.

All across the plain, a miracle happened. This spell was similar to the one he had used long ago during the Chicken invasion.

Giant plants rose all over the place as the grass turned into powerful plant abominations. But this time, there was a key difference: It was imbued with holy energy!

< Holy Magical Shapeshifting Weed Level 20 ✨🌿>

They'd radiate circles of holy light wherever they spawned, driving the demonic mana away! The dark energy had encountered its natural enemy and was running away!

This created pockets of clear air in the otherwise dark, nightmarish ambiance.

"Quick! Head there!

"

"As long as we stay on the edge of the plants, we'll be fine!

"

"Just be careful not to get eaten by the plants. They're super strong!

"

"Yeah guys, especially be careful with the tentacles. Once it gets you, it just plays with your body to its heart's content!

"

"…..

"

"…?!

"

But as the players rushed to safety, they had a delightful surprise. The holy weeds were unexpectedly friendly.

Eating Random Players —> No way!

Eating Delicious Demonic Creatures —> Hell yeah!!!

The plants didn't even bother attacking them as they sucked in the miasma and attacked the now panicked Hunters.

The dark creatures had been damn near invincible earlier, and only Jack had really managed to kill a bunch of them. But everything had changed now!

Holy energy to the monsters was akin to math homework to students: terrifying and possibly deadly!

"W-what is all this?! What madness is this?! How are those plants so strong?! HOW!!!

" The Devil was having a breakdown as it witnessed its minions get slaughtered.

Jack's concerned voice obviously didn't help.

"What happened, little Devil? You sound a little bit upset. Would you like to talk about your feelings with little ol' me? Don't worry. I'm a great listener!

" He comforted.

"Y-you!! Fuck you! Fuck your holy energy, ** your plants and especially ** you!! You're evil! So freaking evil! Was that your plan from the **ing start?!!!!

" The Devil cried out.

The players couldn't help but stare, shellshocked as they drew cold breaths.

Holy **! Jack had utterly broken the Devil. He had turned the all-powerful corrupting evil that had easily overpowered their entire village into the crying mess that it now was!!

Quite a few suddenly made a mental note never to offend him. Fuck, it was the fastest way to Hell!

It turned out that on the evil spectrum: Demon King > Devil

They naturally redoubled efforts in their vengeful monster-cleaning quest. They'd show the Demon King that they could be useful, even if only a tiny bit!

They had to show the Demon King that they were helping with the cleaning. They didn't dare have him turn against them!

"Noooo. This is impossible! All of you step out of the golden light! You bunch of cowards, step outside and fight like proud Devils!!!

" The being screamed, obviously having lost it.

The Devil's immaterial body kept quivering in pain. It felt connected to its minions, and it was the freaking worst right now!

When they devoured, it would feast with them and grow stronger, but now that they were getting obliterated, it felt as if burned by thousands of suns!

"ARRRRGGG! The light, it buuuurnnsss!!!

" It screamed non-stop.

But the Devil's shrieks only emboldened the players as they happily thundered.

"Let's clean this up properly!

"What do we have to fear now! Nothing!

"

"Use whatever CC ability you have and bring the creatures into the light!

"

But that's when something peculiar happened. The chickens had started to respawn ever wherever there was no demonic energy. They would utter a majestic cry as they did: they were back!

— Cluck!!—

— Cluck!! Cluck!!—

— Cluck!! Cluck!! Cluck!!—

As more and more chickens appeared, there was less and less space in the holy areas. But even then, they just kept spawning!

It was as if the game accounted for all the chickens that hadn't spawned earlier….all at once!!

There were freaking chickens as far as the eye could see, and they made their presence heard!

— Cluck!! Cluck!! Cluck!!—

— Cluck!! Cluck!! Cluck!!—

— Cluck!! Cluck!! Cluck!!—

They were still peaceful for some reason, but they were definitely pushing the players out just by spawning. But that's when many began to notice the way the chickens looked at the shadow monsters.

"Damn, those chickens are mad!

"

"So much resentment! They really hate the Hunters!

"

"At this rate, it looks like they're about to get revenge ASAP, haha!

The last player had just been joking, but then something incredible happened. The chickens began pecking at the plants for some reason?

A second later, the damn chickens were glowing golden! What?! Suddenly they seemed super excited, as if they had taken powerful tonics!

< Holy Crusader Chicken Lv 5 ✨🐔>

— Cluck!! Cluck!! Cluck!!—

— Cluck!! Cluck!! Cluck!!—

— Cluck!! Cluck!! Cluck!!—

They just kept clucking as they stared at the creatures invading their plain! Then they all charged!

The players watched in complete awe:

"This the most beautiful thing I've ever seen!

"

"Look at those beautiful majestic feathery bastards go!

"

"Go on, Chicky. You can do it! Peck that big bad guy into oblivion!

"

They'd throw themselves at the creatures that would kill them with a swipe of their claws. The problem was that the chickens would then explode in a puff of feathers and holy aura.

It would splash straight unto their murderer and cause them so many burns! Holy **, they all had the freaking martyrdom perk!! It wasn't the basic one either!!

It was hilarious, but the level 5 chickens were completely winning this war. Then again, many players knew not to underestimate the cute feathery creatures.

"Oh my god, I'm so glad to be here today!

"

"Gentlemen, today we've witnessed History!

"

"That one time that Holy Chickens saved the day!

"

"Hehe, please! It's obviously all thanks to the Demon King!

"

They all glanced in his direction. He was slowly walking toward a now semi-material amalgam of energy. Was this the Devil?!

Every of Jack's steps had the

"evil

" crying for mercy.

"Please stop! Let it end! Please make it stop! Live and let live? Please!

"

Jack had such a gentle smile at this moment as he gently whispered,

"Nope!

". Many couldn't help but chuckle, with Seraphine turning red for some reason…

"F-fine!!! Let's go down together! Screw you!!

"

Suddenly the Devil went all out, radiating with incredible energy! Was it blowing itself up?! Many could instinctively feel it: this would wipe them all!

Oh god! This energy was so dark and ominous! It was vengeful, and it wanted nothing more than to hurt them no matter the costs!

"Hehehehehe! You'll pay! You'll pay! You'll—

" It was going completely insane!

But it got even worse! The being suddenly began floating as a dark mass of energy encircled it. What was happening?!

The mana was so chaotic, and it was raising a freaking storm all around!

At this moment, many couldn't help but gulp. There needed to be someone to stop it, but approaching was impossible! What kind of crazy situation was this?!

But even then, Jack didn't show any sign of being frightened. He simply shrugged as he gestured toward the nearby Bubblegum, whispering something in her ears.

She promptly left as the world kept turning darker and darker under the Devil's ultimate spell. She had to come back soon, or they'd all be dead!

They didn't have to wait long as she came back with Jack's secret weapon.

As they saw what it was, the players couldn't help but gasp in shocked awe. He looked like a legendary general as he gestured to start the assault!

How could a man look so awesome?!

"Release the Chickens!

" He valiantly thundered, no trace of pity in his voice.

Yes, Bubblegum had gone to the nearby Chicken Arena and had brought back with her an entire legion of the little creatures!

They may not have looked like much at first, but as soon as they pecked the weeds, they turned into heroic Chicken Paladins!

At their head was an incredible being that radiated with suave grace and raw clucking power!

< Holy Crusader Chicken: Michael-Clucking-Jackson Lv 5 ✨🐔>

With it as their leader, the troops were in good claws! It took the rookies under its wings and charged at the enemy! It was the most impressive moonwalk backward charge ever!

The Devil almost had a heart attack as it saw the chickens pounce on it— but it didn't have any.

Thanks to the Holy Energy, the chickens majestically flew to the offensive and easily pierced its demonic shield!

Then began an incredibly amazing yet worrying show as the Chickens almost entirely devoured the Devil. #Holy Pecking!

It eventually got banished back to its realm along with a despairing wail that came from its very essence. Why was the human realm so scary nowadays?!

As the Chickens clucked in victory, the players held their breaths, expecting the rewards to come. They couldn't wait!

The Devil Has Been Defeated! Issuing Rewards!

….!!!!
