Archduke Laren ignored the terrible injuries all over his body. He didn't care about the pain from his broken bones and torn muscles. Heck, he didn't even care that his entire left arm was about to break off from his body.
He only cared about pulling air into his lungs and shouting. "Hold them back at any cost!"
Saying so, he ordered. "I order you as the Archduke of Mirage Abyss, Bless The Protectors!"
Among the rubble of the castle, a few pieces glowed brightly and a brilliant light fell on the two Abyssals, including the Archduke.
The auras of the Abyssals rose and reached the range of Archduke Laren.
The Archduke's aura rose further and he became something akin to a Pseudo Sovereign.
Seeing this, the faces of the human warriors paled.
Laren smiled viciously as his plan finally succeeded. The castle wasn't just a mere decorative item. It was a great treasure with many functions. But only Mirage Queen could use them.
