'Why… why… why was this town so difficult to take over!' The demon general's thoughts spiraled in disbelief, his entire body trembling in frustration and shock.
He had heard of the countless failed invasions. Several high-ranking demons had tried and fallen here. He thought he would be different. He thought he would be the one to succeed, to finally break this stubborn barony and bathe it in demon fire.
But instead…
The portal was gone.
His army was faltering.
The humans were pressing forward with renewed vigor.
And worst of all, from the corner of his eye, he saw it.
His daughter. His precious daughter.
Bleeding.
Her sword arm had been severed, her lifeless body falling to the ground under the human's final, brutal strike.
"No… no… NO!!!" the demon general roared.
"YOU BASTARD!" he howled, his crimson eyes locking onto Theo.
In the next instant, the general abandoned his fight with Nathan, who was still grinning madly despite his injuries.
