After Mister Ryou casted his magic off, blood started to paint on Raygen's clothes. Raygen collapsed in the bed and a middle age woman started to heal him.
"I will leave it to you then". He went off and started to walk his way to frontlines. He was greeted big armored soldiers until he saw the generals commanding more soldiers to cast more smoke bombs.
"A little more to the right. Don't let them have a line of sight. Please notify your best magic casters and let them gather at the center. Twenty persons should be enough, but if you can bring more the better. Please gather them as fast as you can, I'll be waiting for them there". Mister Ryou pointed out a certain place and walked there as soon as he finished his words.
"It will be done" shouted General Clave.
A few moments later, a bunch of people started to gather around Mister Ryou. He waited until all of the people were ready to listen to him.
"Demons are simple minded idiots, especially low ranking demons right there. They only have one thing in their midget size brain right now, and that's to kill you without mercy and then your wives, your husbands, your children, your pets. They will eat you afterwards and shit you all in one place. Now that it is out of the way, you need to follow my plans and we could just drink ourselves silly later on."
"Okay, I have your attention now so listen up, all of the water and rock affinity casters gather in front. Everybody else, gather in a semi-circular formation facing that way." Ryou waited for them to fall into place then continued. "Good. Now rock affinity cast a thick wall, leaving a gap in the center. Go make them as thick as you can possibly can. Water casters you are our first line of offense, you need to stall them and gather them up here. Only if I gave you the signal will you go and retreat."
"Now for all of you, this is Abyss Raid Mirror. Attack this mirror as if it your lover's sex partner betraying you behind your back. I need you attack it until you are all sucked dry. Go on do it."
He left them there and went in front of General Clave. Soon, series of angry shouts were heard.
"General Clave, go gather your troops and assume that there will be flying demons. You need to kill them and this fight is over. I can assure you all demons that can't fly will die with my first attack."
"Okay, I'll do as you say".
"Relax. I will do what I promised. You just need to gather all of your finest wine afterwards." He smiled then went back to the casters attacking the mirror. General Clave just smiled in response.
"My lord, we will be arriving after one more day. Please go on and rest." A middle age general urged Matt.
"Our frontline army, where are they now?" Matt asked the general.
"They will be arriving there several hours before us my lord. They have sent a message my lord. You sent them a message to go south but they said no Cromwell Army were spotted for now as reported by their scouts."
Matt Meltor was bewildered by the report. 'Cromwell should have stationed some of his army by now. I told him to prepare his army south, facing the Dejin Forest. Did something happen?'
"Go and tell the scouts to go and see what is happening to Hopeful Light town and report back immediately. Send a message to our army to head in front the Dejin forest and wait for further instructions." He commanded.
"Yes, my lord."
'In any case, I just need to go straight to Hopeful Light town.' Matt closed his eyes and waited for reports to come in. His army still marched on steadily to their destination.

'They are gathering in front of the formation huh'. The smoke bombs still block the demons' line of view but Mister Ryou can still see their aura. 'hmmm, an eight-horned crown demon is leading them based on my deductions. Ahahaha if they saw a bunch of low level conjure stage casters power up an Abyss Raid Mirror for hours, even they would shit their pants in fear.'
