The mercenaries who stayed in the border city were also affected by that shining light in the darkness and have joined the battlefield and fought with blood. Each one of them worked hard for the survival of their own group, yet at this critical moment, their souls were released to the greatest extent.

They finally really feel what it means to be alive, and this consciousness makes them more courageous to attack the demons.

The demon army was endless, but the small border city miraculously resisted the demon attack. Under the light of healing magic, every warrior felt full of strength and courage.

Without needing to turn around, they know that behind them, there is a soft and brave small body that carried all the responsibility of a ruler, to support them and working together with them, the fighters.

That light shining in the darkness became the faith of everyone’s heart.

Even the demons, who were the invading party, could not help but feel puzzled. They shouldered the damage of that blinding light, trying to see through the brilliant white light to see who exactly was standing on the walls that could make these human warriors explode with such power.

They could not imagine why the warlike dwarves were defeated in their hands, but they were met with the strongest resistance in this small human city.

Hughes roared and stabbed his sword through the body of a demon. He drew his own sword and had turned back to the figure on the wall. From his perspective, he could just see the blue skirt under the cover of white light. This wide and gorgeous skirt is inlaid with a thousand sapphires, but none of them can cover up the light of their master.

He remembered the first time he saw this teenager. Even though he had the same looks as the real Princess Lydia, he did not have the elegance of a princess. After knowing that he was heading to the Morris Mountains, he even struggled to escape in various ways. However, it was not just one day that this youth quieted down as if he had accepted his fate. He no longer struggled, no longer cursed, but quietly marched towards the Morris Mountains.

At the same time, Joyce also began to learn magic from that dangerous man. At first, Hughes could not understand his move. In his opinion, this teenager is already waiting for death, so what is the use of learning more magic and becoming more powerful? Can he resist the dragon?

But today, hearing the teenager’s words and looking at him throwing himself into the battlefield despite the crisis, Hughes understood. He accepted the reality because he already knew that no one would help him. He could only go into battle alone. But even after recognizing the reality, he did not lose the heart of resistance.

""

This youth, who was struggling unyieldingly against fate himself, had likewise taught them what resistance was!

“Kill!” Hughes took a deep look at that shining and incomparable figure and then turned around to meet the fight again. He had already forgotten the orders given to him by the Grand Mage and the reasons for desperately defending Princess Lydia because these were worthless in the context of the survival of the entire group.

The demon army surged up one batch after another. Naturally, some of the higher-ranked demons saw the role played by that figure on the wall and began to focus their attacks towards Qing Yun on the wall.

A large number of warriors surged towards those higher-ranked demons, desperately trying to stop their movements because in their hearts, the light on the city wall had become their lifelong faith, one that absolutely could not be trampled on by others.

Seeing that a ray of magic had shot out sharply toward that brilliant source of light, several figures pounced to block that attack. One of the figures bearing the insignia of the Imperial Knights of Sturdian quickly overtook the others and managed to block the magic emitting darkness with his own body just as it reached the city walls.

The pain reached Hughes’ chest, and he slowly fell from mid-air, but his gaze remained glued to the firm frown of the young girl on the city wall. His life was passing rapidly, and even though the milky white glow kept repairing Hughes’ body, it failed to pull him from the hands of death.

On the verge of death, Hughes did not have a trace of fear. Instead, he looked at the other warriors who scrambled with him to block the magic, grinned triumphantly, and shouted with all the strength of his life: “Long live Studian!”

Death took Hughes’ life, and the expression frozen on his face was full of glory.

The blood of the dead completely ignited the souls of the warriors of the border city, making them rush towards the demons like moths to a flame.

Morris quietly guarded his treasure, blocking all incoming attacks.

The light on the walls of the border city kept shining from night to dawn. The light was also deeply engraved into the heart of everyone and continued to give them courage.

The war was slowly coming to an end as the demon armies that had been frantically pouring in began to lose strength.

But everyone did not relax because they really do not have the upper hand in numbers. The next batch of attacks from the demons is expected to come soon. But again, no one was afraid, no one was wailing.

Even if resistance is useless, dying in battle is far better than being slaughtered like animals.

The demon figures appeared on the horizon again, and the warriors once again clenched their weapons. However, at this time, a majestic loud and clear dragon roar came out of nowhere. It resounded throughout the land, instantly stopping the movement of the demons.

Hearing this dragon roar, everyone was stunned for a moment. Still, after reacting, no one knelt down in gratitude like the original. Instead, they all turned their heads to look at Qing Yun on the city wall, wanting to get his instructions.

The dragon’s roar sounded. Qing Yun also froze for a moment and then frowned. He did not expect that the dragon had really woken up and had driven away the demons.

In that case, he might really have to face this dragon later.

Morris sheepishly put away his magic. He did not dare to completely reveal his identity in front of Joyce, but he felt distressed that his baby had been consuming magic, so he could only find a way to make a dragon roar to deter the demons.

But to be honest, if not for the face of his baby, the whole human race has nothing to do with him. He would love to bring his Joyce back to his nest, away from all the strife, and live a happy life.

But he also wanted to watch his treasure in front of the world shine. This both wanting to show off the baby and hiding it well contradictory mood made Morris tangled.

In the camp of the demon race, hearing the dragon’s roar, the demon king Aino stood up sharply, pacing anxiously. He suddenly grabbed a devil soldier and asked: “Only heard the dragon’s roar? Have you seen the dragon?”

“No……only, only the sound of dragon roar……”

However, before this demon soldier finished speaking, a huge pressure descended on the demon’s territory, making them completely unable to raise their courage.

As soon as he perceived this familiar pressure, Aino immediately kneeled on both knees, knocked his honored head on the land, trembling, and prayed: “Your Excellency, please forgive my ignorance. I did not mean to invade your territory. I just thought you had abandoned this land…… ”

A huge shadow emerged from the sky. Although it was hazy and not solid, it was enough to scare the sh-t out of Demon King Aino. The name of the giant dragon Morris is very loud in the demon race because many years ago, Morris’ struggle with another giant dragon was carried out in the land of the demon race.

The young demon king Aino witnessed the not-yet-adult black dragon swallow his already-adult opponent into his belly with almost no effort.

The black dragon’s emotionless, cold vertical pupils swept across the entire demon race, seemingly looking for something. After looking in vain, the dragon left the demon territory.

The demons living in the abyss were extremely eager for the rich lands of the outside world. The last few demon kings could not resist the temptation to attack the Kingdom of Studian, but without exception, they were driven away by the dragon Morris.

There were attempts to collude with other dragons to deal with Morris. However, no matter how powerful the dragons, as soon as they heard the name of Morris, they immediately became furious, thinking that the king was trying to lure them to their deaths.

The dragon Morris guards the land but is not very loving, and the demons often hear the news of dragons going mad in their own territory.

But Aino has not heard from this dragon for nearly a thousand years, so following the previous demon king’s footsteps, he began to try to attack this rich land.

They captured the entire dwarf race and did not meet with the dragon’s counterattack, so Aino was more sure that Morris had left the land. However, unexpectedly, just as they hit the border of the human race, they were threatened by the dragon.

This makes Aino think of the girl he met during his travels in the Kingdom of Studian. That maiden dared to call herself the dragon’s treasure and said that her prayers could call the dragon to her.

Could it be that what that woman said was true?

Aino trembled and knelt, praying for a chance of life for his own race. He knew that this dragon is cold-blooded beyond compare, and perhaps his displeasure will exterminate the entire demon race.

Morris looked over the entire demon race. After seeing the trembling demon king, his mouth ripped out a cold-blooded arc, revealing the white teeth.

His rough and hoarse voice rang out, “The majesty of the dragon race does not allow provocation. You insects and creatures of the abyss, how dare you displease my precious child? You will surely be punished.”

Morris did not forget those attacks that surged towards Joyce last night.

With that, he opened his big mouth, and although it was an unreal body, he still let out a scorching flame. Flame spread in the territory of the demons and even lit up the entire abyss.

The sound of the demons wailing and screaming constantly resounded, making Aino’s face white and unable to even say the words to beg for mercy.

Until the shadow of the dragon in mid-air slowly dissipated, Aino only then dared to raise his head. The image in his front immediately made his eyes show mourning. The dragon fire is like a devouring flower burning in the territory of the demons. It has not been extinguished or showing signs of shrinking.

All the demons can only move away from the dragon fire and tremble in the gap. Morris did not directly kill the entire demon race but made their living environment more difficult.

Aino covered his face in panic. In such an environment, their race will be completely extinct in a short time. What should he do?

In the past, even if the aggression of the demons angered the dragon, the dragon Morris will only drive them away. He will not be as angry as this, putting the entire demon race in a desperate situation.

Why? How in the end did they completely anger this terrible dragon?

Aino desperately thought back to what the demons had done since the invasion and the dragon’s words. What did the dragon say? That they had angered his precious child, and that was why they had to endure punishment?

The figure of the delicate young girl who called herself the princess suddenly came to Aino’s mind. He remembered that the young girl claimed to be the princess of the human race in the Kingdom of Studian. They had just invaded the border of the human race yesterday and attracted the dragon.

Could it be because the demon’s aggression had angered that maiden? Aino instantly felt that he had found the truth, and he scrambled to his feet.

It seems he has to go to the maiden. He remembered he sent her to the elven forest. If he can get the girl’s goodwill to let her appease the dragon, then he can definitely make the dragon Morris retract the dragon fire!

After a battle, the border city was depressed, yet overflowing with a different kind of life, because everyone found their value in the battle.

The wounded warriors leaned together, and the women of the city bandaged them with their medical kits.

Suddenly, there was a commotion at the gates. The people turned their heads and immediately stood up after seeing the blue figure and saluted their faith with a military salute.

Although it was the dragon’s roar that scared off the demons this morning, it was the maiden who brought them to life and led them to win the battle, allowing them to truly learn to fight with their own hands.

No one can deny the value of the maiden because without her, by the time the dragon comes, at least the border city would have disappeared.

The reason they are still alive now is because they used their own power to preserve the entire city, and this power was inspired by the Maiden.

In their hearts, the maiden represents their courage.

Qing Yun walked out of the city gate in silence, carrying her skirt and going towards her luxurious carriage. The battle was over, but no one knew that the demons had completely retreated. The dragon hadn’t even revealed its form, merely emitting a dragon roar, so he had to continue to the Morris Mountains.

Morris followed him every step of the way, and when he reached the carriage, he even grabbed the young girl’s waist and carried him into the carriage. No one reprimanded him for overstepping his bounds, nor did anyone else lament that the princess was the bride of a dragon.

Serodi also did not show hostility to Morris because everyone can understand the man’s feelings. They share his love and admiration for this dazzling maiden.

Last night, his resolute figure has been deeply planted in their minds.

But the saddest thing is that they have to deliver their beloved maiden into the dragon’s lair.

The wheels of the carriage began to turn again, and the princess and his guards once again embarked on their journey. The people of the border city bent deeply and paid their respects toward the magnificent carriage.

The leader of the city guards raised his head to look at the fading carriage and murmured, “This is our incompetence.”

Only then did they let their king sacrifice herself to beg for the dragon’s help.
