Narrator's POV:
"Don't... *pant*.... worry about me, Sweety... *heavy panting*... Just a minor exhaustion."
- Margarette reassures her husband.
"Cut that b*llsh*t! Minor exhaustion my *ss! You're... you're pushing yourself more than you can handle!"
- Zemislav exclaimed in a concerned tone.
"*laugh* This is... *panting*... Nothing compared to your... Your.. *heavy panting*.... Effort throughout the battle... This is just a mere... *heavy panting*... insect... It's not a big deal!"
- Margarette reassures her worried husband.
"BUT-!?"
- Zemislav burst into extreme concern.
*Margarette put her finger on his mouth, indicating not to talk any longer*
*Zemislav gotten quite somehow*
"Phew! Glad we made it in time, isn't it Sweety?"
- Margarette said with relief as she watches Tigreal.
*Zemislav gotten seriously quiet*
Margarette took a moment to look at her husband for a moment. Despite the silence that Zemislav's making, she can tell that he is worried about her. Margarette touches his face which lessen Zemislav's worry and now, she focused her attention to the injured Tigreal.
"Don't worry Sir Tigreal, I'll heal your injury."
- Margarette said.
Margarette starts casting a healing spell on Tigreal.
While she's busy tending the injured, Tigreal is so scared that he cannot utter any words on his mouth.
He is shivering and trembling. Margarette can feel his terror that mustered in him, so, she smiles at him and said...
"Don't worry Sir Tigreal, it's going to be fine..."
- Margarette said with a heart warming tone.
While hearing and seeing Margarette's gentle voice, Tigreal started to calm down... But before relief came to Tigreal, Alice stands up with lots of burns in her body.
Zemislav and the rest are alerted and they are now preparing for a battle, despite the extreme exhaustion they all had.
The demons which is under Alice's supervision is about to launch an attack but suddenly, Alice waves her hand, indicating not to attack and stay where they are. The demons halted and followed Alice's orders.
Alice takes few steps towards Zemislav, Margarette and Tigreal. Zemislav tighten his sword grip and stand infront of Margarette and Tigreal and prepared to protect them once Alice plot an attack.
She carefully watched them, and she saw how much determination carved in their eyes, which made her fall to ecstatic sensation.
"*ecstatic moan* I... Like the look in your eyes... It's full of valor! It's so.. intoxicating!! Its making me wanna punish you! *ecstatic moan* ooh! You've struck my soul to its finest!"
- Alice said in an ecstatic way.
"I was planning ono sparing your life but...."
- Alice said in a seductive way.
*Alice gotten serious and lets out a psychotic grin*
"You bunch already caused too much trouble... So, as a punishment, YOU GOTTA DIE HERE.."
- Alice said murderously.
Alice is about to cast a spell but suddenly, she tripped on something and childishly fell to the ground. All were surprised and struck by sudden stupidity. Balmond saw her clumsiness and let's out a silent mock on his thoughts.
*Balmond faint laughing*
Alice gotten embarrassed all of a suddenly and quickly fixes her composure by standing up in a proper way. She tried to act boldly but pain is not joking.
"Aahh... That hurts like hell!.."
- Alice childishly exclaims.
. . .
*cricket sounds*
"*clearing throat* enough of that."
- Alice said
. . .
"Oh yeah! By the way, I would like to express my outmost regard to you two! For my many, many years of experience, it is my first time seeing such a magnificent work of art!"
- Alice childishly said.
"I've never seen such powerful magic!.. Wow! I'll be sure to remember that feats you two did just now."
- Alice said.
*Zemislav and his men serious gazes*
*Alice fixes her attention to the both of them*
"Hmm... You two did pretty well, I assume you two were the greatest and skilled knights here.. or perhaps the Leaders of this troop.. D*mn! I applaud you!"
- Alice said childishly.
*Alice cheerful face shifted to seriousness*
"And that's why, you two must die here..."
- Alice said seriously.
Suddenly, Alice started mustering up energy... she flapped her wings and levitate away from the ground.
Reddish-like swirls are engulfing Alice and whirling in a swift motion. Wind started mixing with her powers and it started to pulse heavily, creating an ominous sensation.
The second regiment, on the other hand, felt this kind of sensation and started to waive. They start trembling by Alice's imminent power.
*breeze*
The corpses blood which scattered in the entire battlefield started to gather around Alice.
"What's... going on??"
- Yvel ask in confusion.
"Enjoy your last moments, your end nears!!!"
- Alice yells sadistically.
*Zemislav gasps*
*Everyone!!! GA-!!!?"
- Zemislav yells in dismay but it was interrupted.
*gale*
"BLOOD ODE!!!"
- Alice casted her ultimate skill.
. . .
*swoosshhhh!!!!*
When Alice unleashed her ultimate skill, all blood that she accumulated from thousands of corpse, both Humans and Demons, has been unleashed.
Tides of Blood are overflowing and drown everything in its vicinity.
*screaming*
The second regiment is no exception.
*screams of fear*
In Margarette's, Zemislav's, and Tigreal's premises, it has not yet struck by Alice's Ultimate, but it is fast approaching in their direction.
*Tigreal's trembling*
"Ze... Zemi-!?"
- Margarette panickedly ask.
At that moment, Zemislav holds his wife's trembling hands. Margarette fliched.
"Sweetheart, we need to perform that spell again, quick!"
- Zemislav demanded.
"Ri.. right away!"
- Margarette replied in a panicked way.
Margarette start casting her spell in a rushed way. She's trembling and could not focus on her chanting but....
*holds hand firmly*
*Margarette gasps*
Zemislav holds her trembling hand and start channeling his magical powers to hers. Margarette looks anxious.
She took a moment to look at her husband and what she sees is a gentle smile of his.
*Margarette's surprised*
Upon seeing her husband's smile, all anxiousness faded, and finally she mustered courage. She raises her hand, so as her husband and she casted again.
"PRIMAL SANCTUARY!"
- Margarette yells as she cast.
*light based magical circle looms through the ground*
The dome-like shield started to engulf the designated area in a quick formation and everyone, who was in Margarette's spell's perimeters were saved from Alice's Ultimate.
*drip* *drop*
Most of the vast areas of the Plateau, it completely covered in blood. Many have drowned, many have died. Alice's casted blood spell is toxic that it dissolves the corpses like acid.
*moans of pain*
Which slowly tortured and killing them.
*screaming*
People who are saved by Margarette's spell, looked to their surroundings in a horrified way.
*remaining members of the second regiments were shocked*
They couldn't believed that a mere demon could pull such devastating spells.
*drip* *drop*
. . .
"*sigh seductively* Such wonderful sight! *licks ecstatically* Blood... Is... Everywhere!"
- Alice lustfully said as she laughs in a sadistic way.
*all second regiment are horrified to their surroundings*
*moaning*
*groaning*
*dissolving*
*Tigreal's trembling eyes*
*Alice sadistic laughter*
. . .
As they're watching, Alice starts to absorb all the blood that scatter all around the place.
*swoosshhhh*
Blood are now heading back towards Alice and it transform into some sort of energy which she absorbed all of them in one go.
As Alice's toxic blood are starting to disappear, Zemislav's eyes, ears, mouth, and noses started to emit blood.
*splat*
*drip* *drop*
"Zemi!!?"
- Margarette worriedly calls.
"Oh F*ck... I guess... *cough* *cough* I'm in my f*ck*ng li- *cough* *cough*"
- Zemislav said he kept on coughing blood.
*falls*
When Zemislav falls to his knees, the shield which Margarette casted that protected them vanished immediately.
*cough* *cough*
*splat*
"Please! Talk no more Zemi!... I'll... I'll heal you right-!!?"
- Margarette panickedly cast her healing spell to him, despite her trembling hands.
*Zemislav holds Margarette's hands again*
*Margarette gasps*
"Sweetheart, please don't waste your energy in healing me... I... I can still stand *cough*"
- Zemislav reassured her.
"But-!!?"
- Margarette panickedly ask.
. . .
Zemislav slowly stands using his sword. Margarette, on the other hand, still worried about him, having coughing lots of blood than he used to.
"Zemi....."
- Margarette worriedly said as she watches Zemislav panting heavily as blood drips in his face.
As Alice still absorbing blood, Zemislav felt the presence of the portal.
*pulsing*
Zemislav's POV:
As I was looking for that fat *ss"d b*tch, I suddenly felt a slight, and anonymous energy.
*pulsing*
It's vague... But....
*whirling energy*
I can possibly prove that it's the same feeling as what I felt back at the ruins.
*eerie breeze*
It's the portal... A portal that transported us here in the Barren Lands...
. . .
I.. can't exactly pinpoint its exact location due to its faint presence but...
*heavy panting*
Maybe it'll appear and save the remnants of my regiment.
*coughing blood*
. . .
Damn it!
. . .
I... overused my magical spell...
*heavy panting*
More than I can handle...
*splurt*
Anyway... There's no need for me to regret... It's... better to go all out than slacking around like some f*ck*ng *ssh*l* ahaha- *cough* *cough*
. . .
"Sweety...."
- my wife said in a concern tone.
*gently touch her head*
"Fret not, my sweetheart... don't worry. I mean... Stop worrying about me... It'll... make you look like some sh*tty hag."
- I said and wink.
*SLAP!*
*blood splatter*
"How dare you!"
- my wife said comically.
*laughing out loud*
. . .
"Sweetheart.."
- I ask seriously.
*Margarette's listening*
"The portal.. I... can feel its presence but I can't pinpoint its location. For now, give me some time to-"
- I said with a slight meditative state.
"Don't worry... We've got your back. I'm sure the others will understand."
- my wife said with an angelic smile.
*smiles*
"Thank you... Margarette."
- I said with a relief.
Now, I start heightening all my senses and focus all my attention to the portal.
*deep exhale*
. . .
While I was in a meditative state, I heard Margarette's yelling.
Or... Is it hers? Well... I had no idea...
*laugh*
Anyway, I'd better stay focus and rely much in my Natural Born Power, the 'Clairvoyance'.
*meditating*
I don't wanna waste everybody's sacrifices so, I gotta work my *ss for this.
. . .
Margarette's POV:
As I heard Zemi's plan, about something like, focusing himself in locating the Portal's position, I need to, at least cover him.
*looking at her remaining allies*
*tch*
Our numbers are now reduced from regiment to a company.
*looking at the demons*
And the enemy's number didn't slightly change. They're still overwhelming...
*sweat*
If this keeps up, we're going to wiped out. So, I guess we really need to rely more on Zemi's plan in locating the portal.
*deep exhale*
I guess I don't have any choice but to rely once again with my allies. Well, I'm pretty much aware that we're all exhausted but either way... It's now or never...
"Everyone!!! Listen to me!!"
- I yelled.
*all were listening*
"Our chance of survival is getting slimmer every seconds. And I am also aware of our current condition but.... I beg of you once more, lend us your strength and protect our leader at all cost."
- I said fearlessly.
"I know... That most of us are struggling and exerting our every ounce of our breath for this uncertain battle, but our only hope in escaping this outrage is none other than the portal, that's been responsible for this onslaught."
- I said courageously.
*all were listening*
*demons are growling*
*Alice's chuckling*
"I know most of us, don't possess any abilities to detect the Portal's presence none other than our Leader. And with the toll he's been experiencing right now, disrupts his abilities to sense the Portal's presence."
- I said boldly.
*clanging of Orc weapons that indicates they're itching to attack*
"Now, he poured his all to this, which will make him vulnerable to any attacks. So please, I humbly beseech thee to lend us thy strength to protect our leader."
- I humbly beseech them.
*remaining members are exchanging looks*
"Mistress, you don't have to beseech us, as we, Sir Zemislav's companions are always prepared to do what is must, even if it means death."
- Sir Alden said with calmness.
*Margarette fazed*
"I agreed with Sir Alden. We will fight, till our last breath Mistress."
- Sir Heldrick agrees with Alden's statement.
"You guys....."
- I said with a mixture of disbelief and reassurance.
. . .
I look at my companions and they're all prepared to fight once again. And with that said....
. . .
"Oh my, still persistent are we? Hmm! Hmm! Well then, this is getting interesting..."
- Alice said with an ecstatic look.
*Alice waves her hand*
"MINIONS!!! ATTACK!!!!"
- Alice yells.
*demons yell and start charging*
. . .
"MONIYAN WARRIORS, PROTECT OUR LEADER!"
- I yelled.
*all were preparing for the onslaught*
"DO NOT LET THOSE FILTHY PEST GET PASS OUR DEFENSES!"
- I yelled once more.
*all yell*
Narrator's POV:
The demons are charging madly towards them with an overwhelming numbers and intimidation.
At that moment, they all start to form in a defensive formation in order to protect their leader, who's trying his best to locate the said Portal, their only hope of escape.
*Zemislav's faint grunting*
*faint whirling energy of the portal*
Meanwhile, as they're engaging in an intense battle, Tigreal already lost his will to fight due to fear.
*Tigreal's trembling*
He no longer had any confidence and determination to fight anymore...
"No..."
- Tigreal cries in horror within his thoughts
*battling*
*clashing of swords*
"No.... no...."
- Tigreal cries in fear.
*growling of demons*
*sadistic laughter of Alice*
. . .
"I will drain every drop of blood from your body, O Moniyan Scums!!!! Ahahahahaha!!!"
- Alice yells psychotically.
*trembling hands of Tigreal*
*teary*
"I... I don't wanna... die... I wanna die... I don't wanna die....I don't wanna die!!"
- Tigreal cries hopelessly in his thoughts.
Tigreal kept on crying on his thoughts, a cry of not wanting to die.
*Alice chuckles*
*Tigreal's scared*
*battling gone intense*
