A week after William's appearance in the Demon Continent…
"That damned brat, just who does he think he is?!" the Pope cursed out loud as she paced around her room.
After William's intervention, the alliance had no choice but to pull their forces away from the borders of the Demon Continent and return to the Central Continent.
William's ultimatum was that if he saw even a single soldier within the boundaries of the teleportation gates that led to the Demon Realm, he would attack that kingdom, or Empire, and murder the royal family, just as Felix had done to the territories that he had conquered in the past.
The Kings and Emperors of the various nations treated this ultimatum seriously, and had therefore decided to immediately pull their forces back from the front lines.
There were even talks of ending the crusade then and there and returning to their territories since the threat of the Heir of Darkness and the God that backed him up was over.
