Within the Death Tower where the Library of Knowledge of the Undead Alliance was located, the Lich and the other high ranking Undead leading the Alliance glanced through the windows into the battlefield outside.
"Those Dragons are incredible! They were able to wipe out most of those invading creatures!"
"Just who might they be? They do seem to be our allies if they're protecting us to this extent…"
"But what could be their intention? Nobody would go this far to help others without expecting a reward."
"Maybe…" The Lich, their leader wondered. "Perhaps they want that…"
"That?! You mean…"
"It is possible they might want that, indeed…"
"But didn't those monsters want it too? So it doesn't even matter which one wins, we'll lose it anyways?"
"Well! One clearly wanted to kill us and the other is protecting us, it still different." Sighed the Lich. "Hmm, well, I've been mostly worried about the Abyss Gate Fragment to fall in the wrong hands more than anything. After all, it leads to a Legendary World where the Blood Progenitors have been granted access by the Blood God, a utopia we must achieve! If we cooperate with whoever is controlling these Dragons, perhaps we could get more benefits. We have to play our cards well. Don't be rude once they're done."
"Y-Yes, well, it isn't as if we could even be their match either."
"It is not up to us at the end, they could take it away by force."
"It would be smart to simply act nicely and try to seek some cooperation instead…"
"Hm?" Suddenly, the Lich noticed something.
A second army was quickly approaching, led by almost a thousand red, blue, and gray skinned humanoid beings. They exuded tremendously strong auras of power and were nothing like the Miasmic Aberrations.
"W-Who are those beings?"
"My lord, aren't those?!"
"Demons!"
The three advisors of the Lich noticed it right away, while the old Lich's soul flames flickered as he heard the name of those wretched invaders of Genesis.
"The invaders of Hell Gate?" The Lich asked, his soul flames flickering in surprise. "But why are they here? Are they all seeking the Abyss Portal Fragment? To think we have on our hands such a valuable item… It has also become our curse."
The Demon Army kept advancing forwards across the dried, desertic landscape of Ravenfolt, quickly reaching the gigantic black tower that erected into the crimson skies.
The army of barbarians advanced over their Demonic Beast Rides, each one was huge, the smallest was 25 meters, while the largest were as big as 50 meters of height.
However, the one that seemed to be their leader, an old, red-skinned demon with long black horns, a very long gray beard, and a skinny body with almost no visible muscles, was not bigger than 15 meters.
Despite his apparent weak appearance, all these barbarians treated him with great respect! His very presence exuded a powerful Aura of both serenity and strength.
"Hohoho, so we're here… Look, what a lively band of lizards we've got here." Laughed the old man, caressing his long beard. He was already bald, and his eyes seemed empty, being black colored. "Are these the ones sent by Kireina, the one that defeated Lord Satan's vessel?"
The Dragons, who were still fighting a few more Miasmic Aberrations, quickly greeted the old man and his army, by erecting several barriers made out of their Divinities.
"You're not getting through."
Luminous showed up in front of the Demon Army, as the old man laughed, looking up at the gigantic, silver-scaled behemoth.
"What a gigantic creature!" He laughed and smiled with child-like wonder. "I wonder if I could tame you, huh? Would it be okay for you to become my little buddy?"
"You're talking a lot of nonsense, old man." Luminous was growing furious, cracking his knuckles. "You demons are not allowed to enter this domain! Leave!"
"Oh well, if things have to come to this… My children, march forwards." The old man sighed, as the barbarian demons smiled. "CHARGE!"
With a furious roar, the old man commanded all the demons to move forwards. The barbarian demons roared and laughed, lifting their demonic weapons and leaping into action.
"You will not pass."
Luminous Divine Aura exuded from his body, as a gigantic flash of Holy Light surged from the palm of his hands!
"[Heavenly Brilliance]!"
FLAAAASSSHH!!!
The flashing light was like an agonizing acid being poured over their body for the demons, burning them and making them scream in pain.
"H-Holy light of this level…!"
"Uuuaaaggghhh…!"
"It can't be…! Is it as potent as Angels?!"
"Arrgghhh…! I can't… fight back against it!"
Fifty demons perished in that moment, turned into ashes! The rest that charged in the front were badly wounded, covered on countless burnt wounds and carbonized on the outside…
The entire army of Demons stopped their charge as they glanced at Luminous on utter disbelief… This Dragon was not the same Dragon God they knew from Genesis.
He was the only God left of an abandoned World by the Ancients, Progenitors of the Origin World!
The God of Grand Terra, Luminous!
"You demons would eventually also invade my world, isn't it?" Luminous groaned with a rather annoyed sigh. "I better take care of as many of you as possible while I have the opportunity!"
Hundreds of swords made of holy light materialized in front of him. As the Demons that survived encompassed their bodies on their Demonic Auras, clashing against his barrage of spells!
"RAAAHHH!"
"Don't let that damn lizard intimidate you!"
"KILL HIM AND BATHE ON HIS BLOOD!"
"GYAHAHAH!"
The Demons of the Layer of Wrath were utterly insane barbarians, even after seeing the massacre, they were not even intimidated!
They charged forwards with insanity and bloodlust, blocking Luminous attacks with their weapons and firing their own Demonic Magic too.
Nyzzet and the trio of dragonesses quickly joined Luminous magical barrage, the battlefield was swiftly covered by countless of colorful explosions…
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
"Hohoho, what a beautiful sight! Ah, war truly never changes…"
The old demon smiled, quickly walking out of his ride and slowly moving towards Luminous…
