Preparations were done and the elite squad of 18 were waiting for the demon queen. Each of the 18 played a different role and although it was a big squad they often split up into 2 smaller groups.
There were 2 healers, 2 tanks and the rest were some form of damage ranging from archers to rouges.
Elaina appeared by the door wearing her tier 10 clothes which not many have seen. It was quite revealing and resembled a succubus which was half the reason she didn't wear it often.
Elaina's hair just passed her shoulders and was dark blue which contrasted with her red horns and eyes. Her outfit was basically just a dress that was so revealing it only covered her chest, opening up afterwards to reveal everything below her midriff. The only things covering her lower half were some panties and thigh-high stockings which was something she hated. There were also sleeves that went up to her elbow, but that did not compensate for the amount of skin she was already showing.
'This should not be considered tier 10 clothes.' Elaina wished she could get a re-design but her roots as a succubus which she abandoned affected how her outfit came out. She knew it could have been worse, but she never realised just how deeply ingrained her ancestry was.
Most of the male demons were looking away as the fate that would be bestowed upon them would be worse than death if they were caught looking.
*Sigh* "If you are not ready too bad, we are going." Elania stomped her heel into the ground and immediately a red magic circle covered the floor. Suddenly the elite squad and Elania all vanished leaving the castle.
They appeared on the outskirts of the capital on top of one of the neighbouring hills. In the distance, a small dust cloud was approaching and they could only assume it was the pope and his admirals.
Everyone swallowed their saliva as this was most likely going to be their biggest fight yet.
It wasn't long before a person in full white appeared in front of all of them.
"Hey there demon queen, believe this is the first time we are meeting." Klaus spun a sword of light in his hands while licking his lips.
Elaina didn't even bother to entertain him and jumped into the air swinging her axe. Klaus didn't move from where he was floating and blocked the swing casually.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"That's not how you treat a guest." Klaus was not impressed and in response coated his foot in light and kicked Elaina in the ribs.
The force sent her flying, but before she was launched away she somehow managed to hook the axe head around Klaus' neck. This dragged him with Elaina into the forest, away from everyone else.
[Go counter the admirals!] A telepathic message echoed in the minds of the elite squad. All 18 of them then started to run down the mountain towards the admirals.
Luna, who was still riding on Issac's shoulders, managed to cast a buffing spell on Elaina before she was out of range. She also did an AOE cast on everyone making sure they were all topped up on buffs.
Luna may only be tier 8 but with her support skills she could still elevate a squad of veterans to take down even a tier 10 beast.
'Stay safe Ela.' While they approached the admirals, Luna looked off into the distance where Elaina was launched. She felt the immense magical power that came from the two and it was difficult to judge who was truly stronger. None of the current territory leaders have ever fought against each other so there was no way of telling who is the strongest among them.
However, Klaus had been regarded as the strongest purely based on the fact he received an actual blessing from the gods. Many people didn't like this fact, but there was no reason to argue since people preferred peace.
It was a fight that was going to make history and will show who is the strongest out of the 2 leaders. In a sense, it would prove that Klaus is a genuine threat to all nations.
"Bastard!" Elaine gritted her teeth as the armour that surrounded her body stabbed into her back. Blood was drawn and the cracks that formed disappeared quickly. Klaus cracked his neck as being dragged wasn't a nice feeling. The hoodie he was wearing also ripped which surprised him since it was tier-10 quality.
"I'll make this easy, give me the Eden of lust and I'll leave right now." Klaus lied through his teeth, but Elaina was easily able to read his intentions.
"Yeah right, what do you plan to summon with all 6 Edens." Elaina wouldn't give it up either way.
"If I told you then I would have to kill you." Black mist appeared around his arms, but that was enough for Elaina to get a good idea of what he could be doing.
"You monster, why are you trying to summon a forbidden god? Have you gone mad? Do you want the world to be destroyed? There is a reason why we split the artifacts 500 years ago." Considering the artifacts contained more magic power than everyone on the continent combined, the prospect of combining it with such dark magic would likely result in summoning something truly world-destroying.
"Oh don't worry, this isn't my home anyway." Klaus smiled, but his face was void of emotion or empathy. What Elaina saw was not human, but some different being instead.
"Go to hell." She needed to stop him no matter what. Even if she didn't care much for the outside territories this was still her home and she wasn't letting a selfish monster have his way with it.
"I'm already there!" Klaus and Elaina charged at each other and clashed weapons again. This time she revealed her element which looked similar to dark magic due to the properties of demonic essence turning things black.
Black flames similar to Freja's erupted from the axe and engulfed Klaus in flames. Elaina pushed away from him and spun in the air charging the blade. The axe head was completely red and was catching on fire showing it was now fully charged.
Klaus stood there with the flames burning away at him, but with one swing of his hand the flames were dispersed. No damage was done to him at all, but that was expected.
"Interesting axe you got there, show me what it does." Klaus opened his arms wide inviting her to attack. His cockiness pissed her off and so she took the invitation to get a free hit.
Klaus was sent flying at the speed of sound into the ground causing it to crack to the point of causing an earthquake. Although there was no flashy explosion upon hit, almost the entirety of Demon lands felt the its force.
Elaina didn't stop and launched herself into the ground where Klaus was while spinning for another charged attack.
The charged hit made contact with the equivalent force of a nuclear explosion. Dirt erupted from the ground into the sky as Elaina created a crater the size of a small town.
However, Klaus laid on the ground completely unaffected by the hits. His clothes had a bit of dirt on them, but there was no sign of injury and the ground underneath him was unaffected.
Elania jumped back into the sky, losing a bit of her confidence. She didn't expect him to die, but the fact there was no sign of damage scared her.
'I have to use my demon form if I want to beat him.' She didn't want to use it, but at this rate, she needed to use everything at her disposal.
"Now my back is sore." Klaus got up from the ground and stretched his back as if nothing ever happened. He dusted himself off and jumped into the sky ready for his turn to attack.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"This is fucking ridiculous." Elaina couldn't believe it still and wondered how the hell he got this power. The blessing of a god is one thing, but to have power that is beyond any tier 10 sounded impossible.
"Hope you're ready." Klaus didn't give any heads up and appeared in front of Elaina while swinging down. She wasn't able to block with her axe so she raised her arm forcing the armour to take the blow.
The armour instantly started sucking blood and was repairing the cracks that would keep forming. Luckily her regeneration was keeping up with the armour, but she could only regenerate for so long.
"Interesting." Klaus didn't know how it worked, so he suddenly increased the power in his light sword and infused it with dark magic creating an impossible blend of both contradicting elements.
Suddenly Elaina couldn't take it and her arm was almost cut off, so instead she let herself get launched back.
"Fuck it, we are transforming now." No longer hesitating, Elaina slit open her neck and let her blood gush out. And yet, as if her blood was alive it immediately moved to engulf her body.

*RUMBLE*
"What the hell." Everyone felt the earthquake which seemed completely unnatural as there shouldn't be any eruptions.
"Wait, you don't think it already started?" Shaman knew the pope was coming to attack but didn't think it would be starting already.
"Started what?" Himeko didn't know yet as they hadn't gotten to that part in their storytelling, but that was because they thought they had more time.
"The pope is here to launch an attack and we came to pick you up before he came, but it looks like he is here." Elysia explained and Himeko instantly felt her body get goosebumps.
"We were meant to head to the capital after this, but I don't think we want to now." Clara remembered what Freja said, but going there would just mean their death. They were only tier 6 so there was no way they could join the fight.
"Let's stay here for the time being, can you contact Freja?" Himeko didn't care what the orders were, she was going to keep them here for their safety.
"I believe so, but let me check the mission details again since she might have accounted for this." Shaman remembered there was still more to the instructions so she pulled out the tube and opened the scroll.
