The Soul Forging existences of both sides stared at each other and the killing intent around them was palpable. They were all thousands of kilometers above the ground and the energy in each of them generated a crushing pressure.
Both sides were clear that the first battle would not involve them. If the Rank 4 Angelic Paragons and Angels of Supremacy wanted to attack the Magi army, they would have to enter deep inside the force field.
Once there, they would be relentlessly assaulted by Heinz and the others and they would find it hard to escape without severe casualties. If five Rank 4 life forms of the Heavenly race die, even if the magic tower is destroyed it would still be a win to the Magi side.
If the Rank 4 Magi and Fallen attacked the Heavenly race army, that would leave an opportunity for the dukes and the rest to destroy the magic tower and then escape the force field.
