nFrom within the chaotic battlefield, two Dwarves would appear from time to time, unleashing sneak attacks that aimed at the vital points of their targets.

nSometimes they succeeded, sometimes they didn’t. But whenever one of them failed, the other would come to the other’s rescue without hesitation.

nThey were none other than Sid and Scarlet who had also become High-Rankers. Currently, they were doing their best to eliminate the Empyrean-Ranked Monsters, who were only a rank below the Calamity Rank.

nBoth of them knew their limitations, so they didn’t target the ones who had a higher Rank than theirs.

nBesides, the Alliance had Saints and other Calamity-Ranked Monsters who would deal with these powerhouses themselves.

nBoth Assassins had taken their Dhamphir and Cambion Forms, unleashing their full might on the battlefield.

nFighting alongside them was none other than the Draconian Kobold, Cadmus, who was now an Empyrean-Ranked Monster.

nIn the past, he was someone whom Lux couldn’t even hope to deal with due to the difference in Ranks.

nBut now, the Half-Elf had far surpassed him, leaving him in the dust.

nCadmus would be lying if he said that this fact didn’t make him feel bitter inside. However, after the Kobold Clan had joined Heaven’s Gate, they entered a golden age and were able to do whatever they wanted while they dug out an underground nest in the Floating Island of Edea.

nWith the three of them working side by side, the Vanguard of the Alliance was able to breathe a little easier because the trio always targeted the most troublesome Monsters on the battlefield.

n“Cadmus, dodge!” Sid shouted, and the Draconian Kobold obeyed without a second thought.

nAs soon as Cadmus crouched down, Sid flew past his body and pierced the chest of the Monster that was planning to sneak attack the Draconian Kobold from behind.

nAfter this exchange, the two returned to fighting their opponents.

nThey didn’t have to thank each other. If they were to do it, they would have already said it more than a hundred times already.

nIn the midst of a battle where one could lose their life in a heartbeat, repeatedly thanking each other was pure madness.

nSuddenly, the three sensed a presence approaching them which made their faces turn pale.

n“Everyone, back away!” Cadmus roared before unleashing a Dragon Breath in front of him. The breath attack incinerated the Abyssal Monsters that were unlucky enough to be in its path. However, his attack was suddenly dispersed by a Winged Black Tiger who had the rank of a Demigod.

n‘Sh*t!’ Cadmus cursed internally as the Demigod lunged in his direction with its jaws opened wide.

nJust as the Draconian Kobold thought that its time had come, something black leaped above his head and clashed with the Winged Black Tiger, engaging it in close combat.

nIt was none other than the Strigoi, who was now one of Lux’s Covenant Members, Andras.

nThe Winged Black Tiger and the Black Werewolf faced each other, forcing the other Creatures around them to distance themselves from the battle. The origin of this chapter’s debut can be traced to

nA fight between two Demigods could accidentally kill anyone within their vicinity. Their attacks were simply that powerful.

nCadmus opened his Draconic Wings and flew away with Sid and Scarlet, who also had wings that allowed them to fly.

nIt was then that they saw Gerhart rampaging in the distance, seeming to have abandoned any form of defense.

nThey knew that the Half-Elf was a more sensible fellow, so seeing him act like this was unbecoming of him.

nHowever, when they saw that these flying monsters were targeting their Guild Headquarters, the three of them didn’t hesitate to defend it with their lives on the line.

nKeane, who had a pale expression on his face, flicked the handle of his sword from his scabbard, creating countless clicking sounds.

nThe lower-ranked Monsters in front of him were all cut in half. But a single glance was enough to tell them that he was about to reach his limit.

n“Keane, go back to the Guild Headquarters and rest,” Cadmus said as he flew beside the Wyvern that was carrying Keane. “We’ll take it over from here.”

nThe swordsman hesitated for a moment before nodding his head.

nSensing its Master’s mood, the Wyvern flew back towards their Guild Headquarters, while Cadmus, Sid, and Scarlet took over the place he was protecting.

nSid, whose eyes were very sharp, noticed a group of people near their Guild Headquarters.

nSeveral dead bodies were laid side by side, with some of them not having complete body parts.

nHe had seen several acquaintances, including Cethus, whom he had met in the past.

nSid wasn’t that close with the Dragon Born, but he knew that he and Gerhart were rivals.

nHe now understood why the green-haired Half-Elf seemed hellbent on killing as many Abyssal Monsters as he could. It was so that they would accompany Cethus to the afterlife.

nThe Void Battlefield had its own rules, so those who died in this place would not have their souls sent to the Abyss.

nBut Sid didn’t have the time to dwell on this matter because the intensity of the Monster attacks that were heading in their direction was steadily increasing.

nSuddenly, several Empyrean-Ranked Winged Serpents that were over a kilometer long unleashed their Breath Attacks at the Floating Island of Edea.

nThe Magic Cannons mounted on the Floating Island were the most destructive weapons on the battlefield, second only to Poseidon’s Main Cannons.

nBecause of this, the Abyssal Monsters were targeting it fiercely, but there were several Undead Creatures that were getting in their way.

nThe Nightgaunt, Shax, and the Dragon Knight, Bedivere, blocked two of these Breath Attacks, leaving the other attacks to their companions.

nCadmus dealt with one of the breath attacks with his own, nullifying them completely.

nLazarus unleashed a barrage of spells stopping the other attacks from landing on their Guild Headquarters, making everyone breathe a sigh of relief.

nAfter what had happened to Cethus, a few of Lux’s Named Creatures and Covenant Members, prioritized defending their base to help decrease the number of casualties of the main Guild Members.
