Ning stood amongst the demon army, ready to launch their assault on Winterheart city.
Everyone was riled up since so many more demons had joined the rank, ready to attack the humans on the other side.
Beyond this point was nothing but ocean, as Winterheart city was one of the fortresses that protected the continent from naval threats to the north. At last, they never expected the threats to come from the south and not the north.
"Demons! Today, we shall conquer this land of men, and make it ours," Besailach shouted. His words worked as encouragement, buffing up the group of demons around him with improved stats all around.
"Today, we fight for our glory, and to transform this land in the image of our home. Today, the men shall know hell!"
""YEAH!!!!""
Without a second wasted, the demons rushed towards the Winterheart city that men protected.
War broke out, one that was far bigger than the war from a few weeks ago.
Ning stood where he was, without going anywhere, staring directly towards Besailach in the distance.
After all, today was the day he was to kill the demon commander.
He stayed behind as the war raged on in front of him. Demons ran past him, many dying to the humans, and many killing the humans.
Ning, however, didn't move even a single bit. All he did was watch the Demon commander who stood on top of a platform, giving orders to his troops as well as improving their morale.
That was incredibly effective. With so many people motivated to fight, there was no way the demons were going to lose at all.
Trebuchets and Catapults launched fiery projectiles toward the city walls, trying to knock them down.
The city itself had massive cannons on top of the walls, attacking back the horde of demons.
The fighting got big real quick, and sounds of battle and abilities flew off from everywhere.
Armies of demons and humans clashed with each other, each trying to become the victor. However, the demons were slowly starting to overwhelm the humans and it was getting obvious who would win here.
Ning frowned. One of the requests the humans had made to him was to kill the commander before he took over the Winterheart city. However, as things were going on, it wouldn't be long before he would win the war and Winterheart would fall.
"Sigh, I can't sit around. I have to try and do something at least." Ning pulled out some cards, hoping to land his luck before his actual turn came around, but nothing of the sort happened.
[Truth Seer: Lets you see invisible units. Lasts 30 seconds.]
"Well, whatever," Ning thought and used it.
At first, nothing changed for him. However, when he looked around, he noticed multiple humans with dragonfly wings or butterfly wings making their way toward Besailach.
Ning was surprised. "Why are they not attacking them?" he thought. That was when he realized that he was the only one who could see them.
"Oh, it only works for me huh?" he thought. "I wonder how useful it would work if I were at a party."
There were nearly 6 men and women, currently approaching Besailach, ready to attack, and yet no one was there to protect him.
Ning moved forward, not to save the demon commander of course, but to attack him when it was time.
He stood just out of range and watched the whole thing unfold.
The 6 humans launched their attacks from their invisibility, only revealing themselves right before the attack landed.
Besailach and his demon guards were expecting an ambush, but the attack still came to them as a surprise.
6 different attacks landed on the Demon Commander at the same time, removing nearly 1000 of his HP at once.
But a thousand out of 30 thousand was nothing for the commander at all.
The guards attacked, but the commander didn't stand still either. He pulled out the sword by his waist and sliced it in front of him.
A massive fiery sword carved its way through the air and landed on one of the men that had attacked him.
The man was occupied with his fight against the guards, so he wasn't able to block in time.
The man lost over 600 HP in a single attack, giving him a scare he had never before felt.
"He's strong. We need to work together," the man shouted, and even more, people came running in to fight.
Soon, the battlefield was concentrated around the Demon Commander who was attacked from time to time with skills that he couldn't block against.
Soon, he had to disembark from where he was standing and joined the fight on the battlefield himself.
Humans gathered from everywhere to fight him. After all, it was the demon commander that was responsible for the war.
If they managed to kill him, the demons would lose their leader, and as a headless army, they would be easy to defeat.
So, the Demon Commander became a Boss on the battlefield as everyone attacked him.
Ning got close too as he watched the health bar over Besailach's head. It fluctuated between dropping and increasing as Besailach healed for some reason.
But overall, he was losing HP. So even though it was slow, he was dying without a doubt.
The humans continued to add up as they attacked him more and more, and Ning waited for the right time to kill him.
Besailach was fated to die here, so all he could do was wish that it was he who could do it.
For that, however, he needed luck on his side. Without it, being the one to kill him amidst so many people was just impossible.
Fortunately, luck was on his side today as he opened up his inventory and looked at the Rabbit's foot.
"Consume!" he clicked on it.
[You have consumed Rabbit's Foot.]
[Your LUK stat has improved from B- to B+]
[Your next luck-based event has an absolute chance of being successful.]
Ning smiled to himself and pulled out his next card.
