The Elf troop ran through the forest. The legs of their Unicorns are very light in avoiding the transverse roots and the steep ground.
It wasn't just Aerchon who felt anger towards the Daemon of Calamity. But his entire Elf army.
Hearing that the race they despised was so close to their territory, the Elves couldn't help but squirm to stab the tip of their weapons into the Daemons' skulls.
The Elven army pierced through the forest and mountains. Creates turbulence that shakes the tree. Until they finally saw the Daemon camp.
The camp stands on a field. Several Daemons of Calamity were walking around holding their weapons. But there is something strange about their movement. As if they were preparing to leave.
Aerchon hears that a Daemon troop has been slaughtered while ambushing the escorts carrying the three humans. This made Aerchon believe that the human named Erend Drake did have a strange power. And that strange power could make him win against the Daemons.
Aerchon drew his sword. His eyes stared at every movement of the Daemons who looks like about to run away.
There are not too many of them. Far less than the number of his Elf army. In that case, they can finish them off easily, Aerchon thought.
"CHARGE!!!" Aaron shouted.
The Elf army advanced towards the Daemon camp. They throw Magic missiles with great destructive power at them.
Aerchon lunged with the sword in hand then slashed his sword towards the Daemon's neck right in front of him.
'CRAAT!'
The Daemon's head was cut from his neck and fell to the ground. Arrondite emitted a thin reddish smoke that emanated from the blood of the victim it had just slashed.
"DON'T LET ANYONE ESCAPE! KILL THEM ALL!" Aerchon's ordered. His Elves army was happy to do that. They continued the massacre with burning zeal.
The massacre didn't last long. The Daemon of Calamity is indeed not an equal enemy for the Elves especially when they are outnumbered.
Within a few minutes, the corpses of the Daemons were strewn with dismembered bodies. Wetting the dry ground with their blood.
The Elf's army then collected the corpses and piled them into hideous mounds of brownish flesh.
The Elves also stuck the Daemon's head on their spears and stuck them in the ground. Creating some kind of decorations from nightmares.
What they did next was burned the pile of Daemon of Calamity corpses with their Magic.
Flames soared above the outer territory of the Forest of Rising Sun. Covering the sun over the sky.
The Elves stared at the pile of Daemon corpses that were slowly turning to black ashes with satisfied gazes. After being satisfied to see it, Aerchon ordered his army to return to the palace.
As soon as they returned to the palace, Aerchon immediately removed his armor and headed for the waterfall with his troops.
They headed for the waterfall to clean themselves. The Elves considered dealing with the Daemon of Calamity and other enemies a dirty activity.
Therefore they must immediately clean themselves at the waterfall. Aerchon was bathing with his troops who had just finished the massacre. After finishing cleaning themselves Aerchon went back into his room.
Inside, there was already Aurdis waiting for him.
"What are you doing here?" asked Aerchon in a slightly disturbed tone.
Aurdis swallowed her saliva before speaking. "You must stop leading the troops into battle yourself. Let our generals do it."
Aerchon looked at Aurdis with his cold eyes. "Do you think I will not be able to fight them?"
Aurdis shook her head with a sigh. She already knew that her older brother would think this way.
"We can't get water from the Fountain of Eternity anymore. If you get hurt, you could die. And you're the prince of the Elf kingdom. You shouldn't have gone into battle!" said Aurdis.
Aerchon did not immediately reply to her words. The idea that they couldn't get water from the Fountain of Eternity bothered Aerchon quite a bit.
Before, the Elves were an undefeated race because they had the Fountain of Eternity. With the water from the Fountain, any serious injuries they suffered would instantly heal as soon as they drank it. The Elf's very long lifespan is also due to the water from the Fountain.
However, in the past five years, many Elves have died. The decision to seize the key to the Fountain of Eternity by force proved to be the wrong decision.
But Aerchon still doesn't want to admit it. Truce agreement with the representatives of the humans could also be said to benefit the Elves who were attacked from various directions now that their mortal enemies have started to move again.
But then again, Aerchon didn't want to admit that.
"I can still fight without that water," replied Aerchon. "Get out now and sleep. We're going back to the palace tomorrow."
Aurdis sighed and looked at her older brother. She wanted to hit Aerchon hard to get rid of his annoying stubbornness and pride. Because Aurdis knew his nature like that would bring trouble to himself.
Aurdis walked and passed Aerchon because she knew that now there was nothing she could do anymore.
The door behind her closed loudly as if to tell Aurdis to leave immediately. Then Aurdis walked faster with an annoyed expression on her face.
