Chapter 6 - Chapter 6: War

After yelling to tell his armies to assemble, Alexander calmed down and began to think about how to counterattack the demon's erecting portal in his territory.

'Hmmmm, it will take approximately 5 days to assemble 1 million of my soldiers but the demons might finish making their portal earlier than i can assemble my army.' Alex thought as he tries to come up with strategies that will be effective and efficient.

"Ah! This should work." Alexander said as he calls the butler "Kevin i will leave Alex under your watch until me and Anna return.

A gray haired muscular man in butler outfit nodded seriously as he kneels to the ground, "Yes my lord."

"Good! I trust you to protect my child." Alexander said as he gave the butler Kevin a pat on the shoulder to show that he entrusts the safety of Alex under his hands.

A smoke appeared from under the ground forming a door with strange markings and Anna stepping out of it, "Are you okay honey?" Anna inquired worriedly.

"Yes they were just weaklings possessed by a high demon, our son is okay too since he is currently in the forest right now." Alexander smiled and patted the head of Anna indicating to her thet he and their son was okay.

Hearing that her husband and son was okay, Anna sighed a breath of relief," Yeah i know he is safe since the curse mark i put in him didn't sense any danger."

"So how are we going to strike back honey?" Anna asked as she knows his husband will never tolerate demons under in his territory.

"We strike them while they are still in the process of building their demon portal." Alexander suggested.

"Well then i will check just how much time we got left until they complete their demon portal." Anna said as she clasps her hands together and prayed in an unknown language, "Aspicio ater atra strum, [Cursed Eye of Darkness]", Anna's eyes began to bleed as her iris's turn complete black while smoke starts coming out of her mouth gathering at the top of her head which formed a black and red eye with a vertical iris looking ominous.

The eyes then looks at the northern direction after 1 minute indicating the location of the demon portal, Anna who discovers the location of the demon portal continues to dive deeper using her magic.

*WOOOOSHHHH*

However just as she was about to come close to the area where the demon portal is, a flaming spear suddenly pierced the eye floating above Anna with great speed causing her to grimace in pain and just as a second flaming spear was about to hit Anna, Alexander grabbed it with one hand and throws it back to the place it came from.

"There is a high demon guarding the place and i did not see anyone else other than it." Anna said to Alexander as she recovers from having her magic broken.

"Good job honey." Alexander smiled gently at Anna causing her to smile as well.

Even though Anna didn't discover how much time they have left until the demon portal is completed, she did at least got the exact location as to where it is being built.

"Since that high demon discovered us i'm sure it is also preparing it's defense against our retaliation." Alexander analyzed the situation while sending the butler Kevin away to protect his son.

"Let's strike as early as now honey and work together to kill the high demon." Anna suggested.

"Hmmmm let's follow your plan and bring with us 20 of my elite barbarian soldiers while you bring your elite shamans also." Alexander suggested as a back up plan incase something unexpected happens.

"Sure let's do that." Anna agreed as she got to work gathering 20 of her elite shamanist while Alexander also gathered 20 of his elite barbarian soldiers which only took a moment for the two of them.

After a while of getting all of their gears ready, Alex, Anna and their 40 elite soldiers combined gathered as Anna once again clasps her hands together and starts to pray in an unknown language, "[Cursed Door]", A black door with strange markings then appeared, large enough to fit the group as they began to step inside with Anna and Alexander in the lead.
