Cain laughed as he inelegantly bashed the man's blades aside and nearly tripped him with the shaft of his spear.
"The Darklight Host doesn't rely on me for power anymore. The Guild Skill that your forces fear so much will live on without me, for my daughter and two other members could take my spot to keep it active.
I have already set my heir apparent in the system, you won't gain anything at all, except two continents worth of angry Outreach Workers. But can you even win?" Cain taunted him between blade strikes before falling silent again.
Trying to talk while fighting was way harder than it seemed, and wasted breath that he needed to avoid getting skewered by a magical sword.
There were also far more Ancients in the area than Cain remembered there being. As Cain and the enemy General traded blows, looking for an opening, Cain saw that there were at least ten of them, meaning that almost all of his Watchers had come to join the battle. If any had remained behind, it was likely Neffie's on the Eastern Continent, who were engaged in a battle the last time Cain checked.
The Demon General was weakening, thanks to Luna's poison, and the blocks he could manage were becoming sloppy. The black streaks on his neck were becoming a large gray patch, with black streaks at the leading edge.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt[A Paralysis Poison. Just as lethal, but it will slow him as he dies] Cain heard the voice of Vala in his mind, just before he saw her at the edge of his vision.
She was impatiently roaming the area around the edge of the Anti-Magic field, waiting for it to fall so that she could help Cain in the fight.
[Not Good, they dare to use our own spells against us.] Victor complained in a strange accent, and Cain saw large portions of the summons in the battle vanish.
If they couldn't get a fighter close to the mages or whoever had that anti-magic spell, the Farm's defenses could be in for a world of trouble. Even if the leader died, Cain had seen that many of the followers were zealots that truly believed in the cause, and they wouldn't stop just because the mind control had ended, they would keep fighting to take over the farm and then try to take leadership of the group.
Cain had one final trump card to play in this fight though, one that he never thought he would use. [Useful Dolls] allowed him to set his Puppets and any of his permanent summons free.
They would keep their current status, being level 500 Mythic Beings, of various classes and skills, but no longer would they be a summons, they would be independent life forms of their own. That would let them enter the battle directly despite the barrier against Magic effects.
It would be a great loss to Cain, he had always assumed that they would be behind him as long as he lived. But if he didn't they were going to lose a lot of innocent lives here in the battle for the farm.
[Useful Dolls, Free all Permanent Summons and Puppets] Cain directed the system as he fought the enemy General to a standstill.
The world around them seemed to stop for a moment as the spell activated, and Cain could feel that the excessive amount of energy released by the System activating to rewrite the status of so many Mythic Creatures at once had done something to the Ley Line nearest to the farm, but there was no time to consider that for now.
Cain grabbed the enemy general by the arms, stepping past his blades, and threw him to the ground, where he rolled away to get to his feet.
Cain picked up his weapons, using the second or two he had to make sure that the ability he used had worked and that the others understood what he had done.
Victor and Vala were the first to test the theory, charging into the enemy lines to massacre the mages that were dismissing the summons, then fighting back to back as the army surrounded them.
The enemy General didn't realize it as fast, thinking that the two were living beings and not summons, but either way, it didn't matter to their fight. He was a very skilled warrior before he gained the Mind Control type Spirit Rank ability he used to lead the army, and he wasn't about to accept that he was going to lose a sword fight to a summoner.
A low strike from his blade split Cain's leg open from ankle to knee, and he began to fall onto his right side.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe General pushed his advantage, stabbing a sword into Cain's left side, but his overconfidence cost him. Cain thrust forward with his spear, hurling it from his right hand for lack of ability to brace himself for a solid blow.
The spear flew the half meter to its target in a split second, sinking deep into the Demon's chest, while [Might of Many] enhanced its damage to ludicrous levels, letting the spear punch straight through both bone and armor, killing the demon in a single blow.
Cain breathed a sigh of relief as the body hit the ground. Then a roar of anger as it vanished in a flash of light.
"What the hell was that?" Cain roared, bringing Jessica running, already casting a healing spell.
"He had a resurrection item. When he died, the spell we cast ended, and the item activated, then he forcefully teleported himself to safety." Victor called back, as the clatter of falling weapons filled the air.
"The enemy army has surrendered. Well, most of them, we are killing the ones that didn't." Vala called happily, which made even more weapons fall to the ground in surrender, as the former army of Morgeth realized that they were doomed.
"Thank you, Jessica. I feel much better now." Cain whispered, petting the High Priestess's head in relief.
"Do we have any leads on his location? I hate loose ends. And someone please introduce the army of Morgeth to the real Morgeth already so we can end this idiocy." He shouted, loud enough for both armies to hear his command.
