On the second night after Jaldabaoth breached the border defenses, the messenger who had fled from the front finally arrived at the northern city of Kalinsha, which was also the city where the Holy Queen was currently located.
Along the way, the news had already spread throughout the Holy Kingdom. The ruler of the Holy Kingdom, the Holy Queen, had issued a national mobilization order, commanding all the nobles to raise armies and join forces to defeat Jaldabaoth.
The news quickly reached every corner of the Holy Kingdom.
Hundreds of thousands of demi-humans had united to attack the Holy Kingdom, with their supreme commander being the Demon Emperor Jaldabaoth. Furthermore, Jaldabaoth had defeated the border defense forces with overwhelming strength.
The nobles of the Holy Kingdom hurriedly sent soldiers toward the border.
If they did not mobilize, the Holy Kingdom might be destroyed.
After all, the border forces of the Holy Kingdom, which had never been defeated, were completely crushed this time. It was said that no one managed to escape, except for the messenger.
Inside Kalinsha, the Holy Queen listened to the message delivered by the messenger, and her mood was not good.
The messenger spoke of Demon Emperor Jaldabaoth as a god-like figure.
And both messengers gave the same account.
Clearly, these two individuals had never met each other, nor had they had a chance to communicate. They had both been rushing toward Kalinsha with all their might.
In their accounts:
Demon Emperor Jaldabaoth had approached the city walls!
Then, several meteors fell from the sky, completely destroying the border forces.
Following that, there was a sky-high fire.
After the messenger left, the Holy Queen furrowed her brows tightly.
The Holy Queen's name is Calca Bessarez, known for her beauty, which is said to be the greatest treasure of the Holy Kingdom, as delicate and radiant as a flower.
She also possesses an extraordinarily high talent for Light Magic.
It was precisely due to her unprecedented talent that the Holy Kingdom saw the rise of its first Holy Queen.
She is accompanied by two women: one is Remedios, one of the Nine Colors of the Holy Kingdom, and the leader of the Holy Knights Order. The other is Kelart, the highest priestess of the Temple.
They are known as the Holy Queen's wings and are considered to be sisters.
"I believe the messenger must have gone mad out of fear and said those things. How could anyone control meteors?" Remedios spoke up.
"I can sense it. The two messengers are filled with an aura of fear. Perhaps they were subjected to a special magic that distorted their perception," Kelart said.
"I heard that a Adamantite-grade adventurer from the kingdom managed to repel Jaldabaoth. Surely, I'm not worse than a Adamantite-grade adventurer!" Remedios remarked.
"Hee hee hee! I'd really like to meet Jaldabaoth! I've been so bored lately!" Kelart giggled.
"If it's really as you say, then I hope it's true!" The Holy Queen thought to herself.
At that moment, the Holy Queen seemed to hear the sound of a bell, like the alarm bell at the city gates.
"Bang!"
The door was forcefully pushed open. A squad leader rushed in.
"Who gave you the audacity to barge in and forcefully open the Holy Queen's door?!" Remedios scolded angrily.
The squad leader spoke without hesitation:
"Your Highness, the Holy Queen, it's bad! Jaldabaoth has led a horde of demons into Kalinsha! The city gates have completely fallen, and the demons are slaughtering the people of Kalinsha."
Remedios no longer had the mood to reprimand the squad leader for his disrespect.
She immediately called together all the knights of the order and the Holy Queen's personal guard.
The group made their way toward the city gates, effortlessly dealing with all the demons along the way.
"To think they thought they could attack here with just this level of demons. It's utterly ridiculous! I really don't understand how the gates fell so easily. Were they just sitting around doing nothing?" Remedios said.
"Hee hee hee! Let's talk about such things after we deal with Jaldabaoth!" Kelart laughed.
A figure appeared in front of them, seemingly without anyone noticing, now less than a hundred meters away.
"Hee hee hee, I really like that! I like it!"
A four-winged humanoid appeared in front of the group. Their snow-white wings were the subject of envy.
"Let me guess, the one in the middle must be the Holy Queen, right?"
"Who are you?"
"Me? I'm just a small fry under Jaldabaoth's command!"
Peroroncino revealed his true form at this moment.
"It's been a long time since I've used my true form... I almost forgot how powerful it feels!" Peroroncino said to himself.
"Hmph! Die, you demon!" Remedios swung her sword toward Peroroncino.
"Smack!"
As Remedios raised her sword, she was struck in the face by a powerful blow, sending her crashing to the ground.
"Your upbringing is truly terrible! You greet someone for the first time and say something like 'die'!"
"Bastard!"
Remedios angrily charged toward Peroroncino.
"Body Enhancement!"
"Ultimate Breakthrough!"
Remedios unleashed her martial skill.
"Sixth-tier magic: Divine Protection!" Kelart cast a strengthening spell on Remedios, enhancing her overall power by 1.5 times.
"Sixth-tier magic: Star Radiance!" The Holy Queen also wasn't idle, casting her strongest spell.
However, when the attacks hit Peroroncino, they had no effect whatsoever.
"Hehehe, this is really fun!" Peroroncino mimicked Kelart's tone, grinning.
"Bastard, try this!"
"Holy Light Slash!"
The holy sword in Remedios's hand glowed with golden light as it slashed toward Peroroncino.
Peroroncino looked at Remedios, smiled, and said nothing.
However, just as the attack was about to hit Peroroncino, it suddenly stopped, as if it had collided with an invisible barrier.
"Is this all?"
"Bastard!" Remedios furiously continued attacking Peroroncino, who didn't dodge or evade, allowing the attacks to land.
Until Remedios could no longer strike.
"Is this your impotent rage?"
Peroroncino directly bypassed Remedios and walked toward the Holy Queen.
Remedios's sharp, sword-like gaze made Peroroncino uncomfortable, so she wasn't her target.
"Don't ignore me!" Remedios angrily slashed at Peroroncino.
This time, Peroroncino didn't show mercy.
"You're really annoying!"
Peroroncino grabbed Remedios by the throat, squeezing until she lost consciousness.
The other members of the Holy Knight Order didn't step forward, as they knew they would only slow down Remedios.
However, the outcome was entirely different from what they had imagined. The very powerful Remedios was defeated just like that.
"Protect the Holy Queen!"
The knight order surrounded Peroroncino, encircling him.
Peroroncino flapped his wings, and they were all blown away by the powerful shockwave, crashing into nearby buildings.
"Saint Light Flash!"
The Holy Queen and Kelart both cast the same holy light spell, and the two magic beams fused together, completely surpassing the sixth-tier magic level.
Peroroncino paid no attention as the magic struck him.
"How should I put it, it's a bit itchy!"
"Follow my command!" Kelart ordered all the priests behind her.
"Fusion Magic!"
All the priests gathered together to form a hexagram. Kelart stood at the center of the hexagram. The combined power concentrated on her.
"Magic Strength!"
"Ultimate Magic Enhancement!"
The Holy Queen also cast magic to assist Kelart.
"Extreme Holy Flame!"
White flames surged towards Peroroncino.
"Not bad, this power should be equivalent to seventh-tier magic. It's time to get serious!"
Peroroncino took out his Houyi bow.
"Silent Arrow."
A dark arrow shot out, colliding with the white flames. The two forces canceled each other out.
Kelart collapsed, exhausted, sitting down with a helpless look in her eyes. Her sister had just been strangled to death by this person.
The magic they had just cast was the most powerful spell they could unleash.
Peroroncino advanced, and the other priests and the Holy Queen's guards tried to block him. With a gentle flap of his wings, they were all sent flying.
Peroroncino bypassed the Holy Queen and approached Kelart.
Kelart looked at Peroroncino with eyes full of despair.
Peroroncino bent down and spoke:
"Come on, let's hear another 'hee hee hee'!"
