Ethan’s pained screams made the hearts of those who heard it tremble. Fortunately, the only ones that could hear it were the people inside the room. Sebastian surrounded the room with a soundproof barrier, which prevented those outside the room from hearing Ethan’s suffering. Safiya and the other Shamans meaningfully exchanged glances with each other before forming a formation around Ethan. All of them chanted and used their healing powers to help the boy endure the pain that was wracking…-

Ethan didn’t know where he was, or what had happened to him after his attempt to save Lily from being hacked to death by the warrior who was supposed to be protecting both of them. He was unable to move his body, but he felt very light and comfortable. In fact, he felt so relaxed that he didn’t even want to open his eyes and was tempted to continue sleeping instead. However, a voice filled with contempt reached his ears, which prevented him from falling into the darkness that wished to keep him…

Lily had instinctively moved her body when she heard Ethan’s call. She had barely managed to prevent her heart from getting pierced by the sword strike through her back. As waves of pain assaulted her body, Lily gritted her teeth and took a few steps forward. She knew that if the warrior managed to twist his blade and slash sidewards, her life would end in an instant. Out of desperation, she only did what she could do at that moment and moved to dislodge the blade from her body.…

Ten days had passed since the Necromancer first ordered his attack on the city of Zentris. Each night, he would send hundreds of Flying Undead Monsters to the city without mobilizing the Land Army under his command. During the day, the Skeleton Soldiers would go to the White Forest to hunt for flying monsters, as well as regular beasts, which would then be killed and revived on the Altar that was located at the rear of the Unholy Army. The Necromancer didn’t really care what kind of flying…

When the sun rose in the East, the Warriors of the Allied Tribe stirred. The water in the lagoon slowly receded, and the Kraken, which had helped guard the City during the day, followed the tide as it returned to the Sea. The women and children who were old enough to work were busy delivering food to the warriors, which would give them energy to fight the battle that had yet to start. This was the only role that they could fulfill during the war, and they took it very seriously. The warriors…

After the funeral, the Three Great Chieftains decided to let more than half of the warriors rest, while the others would continue to stand guard. They didn’t know if the enemy would attack again during the night, but they were certain that once the sun rose from the East, the Undead Army would march again. All of them were exhausted, and they knew that if they didn’t rest now, they wouldn't have the chance later, knowing that they would not have time to spare once the battle started. Ethan and…

The warriors up on the ramparts cheered as their blood boiled inside their chest. They were prepared to lay their lives on the line to protect their people, despite the sheer number of their enemies, and had already prepared themselves for the worst. When the Skeleton Soldiers that numbered in the tens of thousands began to advance, they grit their teeth and waited for them to climb the city walls. However, when the Necromancer called forth an army of Undead Flying Monsters, their expressions…

The tension within the walls of the City of Zentris was high as everyone looked at the Plains, where countless Skeleton soldiers stood. Above their heads, dark clouds loomed over them, spread across the sky. Lightning snaked across the heavens, and thunder boomed loudly. Strong winds buffeted the city, but the warriors standing on top of the ramparts, as well as those manning the magical ballistas, remained firm. It had been three hours since the sun had set, and the lagoon was flooded with…

After settling inside the City of Zentris, the Allied Tribes spent the next few days preparing for the war that was about to come. The warriors would leave the city during the day in order to chop down trees, which they would use to make spears and arrows. The blacksmiths were also hard at work, forging weapons and other works of metal for everyone. The women were assigned to harvest and process the fish that were caught by the magical net during the day. They used various methods to preserve…

When the sun rose on the horizon, the water in the lagoon slowly receded, heading back to the sea. The Allied Tribes looked at this scene with awe. Although they had been waiting for this moment, they still felt anxious because they were afraid that the legends about the City of Zentris weren't true. Now that their worst fears had been proven false, all of them patiently waited until the water in front of them had receded completely. Originally, they thought that, once the water disappeared, the…
