"Hahaha... It's impressive that you can withstand my attacks, young man."
Upon hearing the voice, Valen and the troops assisting him instantly felt a chill run down their spines.
Turning their gaze in the direction of the sound, they saw a middle-aged man with graying white hair and light black armor. Despite his age, the man's warm smile and vigorous presence made him appear younger.
This man was none other than Heidel, the Archdemon and the leading general of the Demon race in this war.
Observing Valen, who bore wounds from his attack, Heidel crossed his arms behind his back and remarked with a slight smile, "Well done, Spear Hero. You're still far from your predecessor, but you're pretty impressive, hahaha!"
Seeing Heidel, Valen immediately became wary. However, upon hearing his dismissive words, a flash of anger ignited in his crimson eyes.
