"State your terms, Demon," Krune spoke, as dictated by the warring laws their world followed. The representatives would talk first, just in case everything was due to a misunderstanding.
This was to prevent war from unjustly happening. However, it was mostly used by the representatives to display the moral standing of their respective sides and to rile up their soldiers.
"Well, the Empire's downfall sounds just about right." Han smirked in response, his five-meter-tall figure casting a large shadow on the river.
'He's almost reached the strength level of that Ancient Demon when it had been sealed.' Krune probed through Han's power level as he snorted at its claim.
"I'm not going to ask for your terms, though." Han continued to laugh. "You'll be annihilated anyway. Maybe if you surrender, you'll be spared."
He purposely raised his voice, transmitting it to the human army, causing countless soldiers to seethe in rage, almost breaking out of their formation.
"Unfortunately for you," Krune suddenly smiled as he replied. "The Empire is already prepared to mourn at your graves this time next year. We've even planned for a holiday. You know, the day we sweep the dirt off our streets."
"You!" Han became angered at his words. Rather more than words, Krune's expression of ridicule pissed him. Without any hesitation, he punched at Krune. He had no reason to follow the customs of humans anyway. He had only done so to break their morale at the start.
And since it didn't work, he planned to destroy their commander first. His punch slammed into Krune when Han frowned, feeling like he had hit air.
Krune's figure skid through the air for ten meters before he laughed boisterously. "Wow, I never thought the Demon commander was this weak. If I had known this, I would have sent my youngest disciple to mop the floor with you."
As Krune wasn't even the least scratched, his words carried tremendous weight. Thanks to Mental Energy and the air currents he generated through Cloud Whale, there was a layer of air cushion surrounding him that absorbed all attacks.
That was how he came out unscathed.
Then again, his opponents didn't know of that, only seeing the scene of Krune casually brushing off the attacks of their strongest.
"Humans." Krune's voice suddenly resounded throughout the battlefield, amplified thanks to his imposing display earlier as he raised his hands, bringing them down immediately. "Charge!"
"Arrghhh!" The soldiers bellowed at his command and began to charge towards the Praire River.
"Destroy them!" Han shouted, gritting his teeth at Krune's actions.
The Yin Beasts formed the first line as massive hills of meat jumped into the river, unobstructed by the water as they rushed towards the humans, gaining momentum, looking like they would easily topple through hundreds from this charge.
"Moon Archers! Fire!" Suddenly, generals under him bellowed as countless soldiers summoned their moon-attributed County Arms, all projective based, unleashing the entirety of their power in one go.
A myriad of abilities arched through the air before slamming into the Praire River.
"Dammit! Retreat!" Han noticed it a tad too late as he shouted, noticing countless Yin Beasts had charged through the Praire River and almost reached the other end.
As for the humans, even though they had been charging with reckless might before, they were a lot slower, hence creating this situation where they stopped 20 meters from the river as if everything was planned beforehand.
And right at this time, the myriad abilities slammed into the Praire River, turning the river into ice, trapping all the Yin Beasts there.
Not only were the moon-attributed County Arms included in this, but also the Imperial Meisters with moon-attributed Imperial Arms. Thanks to that, a tremendous amount of frost power coursed through the river, freezing it entirely, continuing to freeze it for dozens of kilometers.
"Now, charge! Kill them!" Krune commanded as the army charged forth, attacking the trapped Yin Beasts. With their mobility gone, they could only rely on their arms, being expertly targeted by the humans that moved on the ice surface.
And the spikes under the soles of their shoes helped them maintain balance in this situation.
"So, they've prepared a lot…" Su Daiyu sighed, arriving beside Han, having reached the same height as him. They were the biggest of Demons on this battlefield, attracting attention from everyone, for their actions would change the tide of war.
"With the elites gone, the rest would become akin to a sandcastle," she said, gazing at the figure of Krune that was situated a couple hundred meters away, calmly standing in the air, hands folded, gazing at them all along.
On top of that, for some reason, he sported a knowing smile, one that caused her to shudder. "We should take him out first. Based on the information we gathered, he's Liu Heng, a Star Imperial Meister. He's also the one that created County Arms and the one that strengthened the Empire recently."
"So, he's the real deal." Han turned solemn, no longer treating Krune as a spoiled brat. Preparations for war took time, and by the time the Demon actually finished amassing power from even beyond the Empire, it had been six years since the appearance of County Arms.
Krune was almost 21 years old, of course too young to be in a position of authority. That was why he hadn't put enough strength in his punch before, having underestimated Krune.
"Let's deal with him first. Killing him would deal an emotional blow to everyone that looks up to him," Su Daiyu said, flapping her wings before flying towards Krune.
"Fine." Han nodded in response as his figure flashed, speeding towards Krune as he unleashed the brunt of his aura, causing the air to crackle as a baleful screech resounded.
A gigantic human skull formed above him, opening its mouth to unleash green flames at Krune. The green flames were akin to a jelly mixture of poison and curses, flying at Krune with tremendous speeds.
"Hmph!" Krune snorted, using Mental Energy on his clothes to hover in the air while he condensed the Cloud Whale next to him, adding a small reverse funnel at the top of its horn.
Air Needle!
Thanks to the reverse funnel, the concentrated beam of air expanded in size, turning into a powerful thrust of wind, blowing away the fire towards the skull, even sending it flying back from the force.
Violent gales were stirred up as a result, halting the Demons in their approach, causing them to frown. "This human…"
"He's strong!"
