"Alright. Everyone hear me out!" Rose took out her badge and used her Spiritual Energy to awaken it. The light emitted from the badge grabbed many people's attention. "I'm…"
Rose explained the whole situation in front of the gate. In the meantime, Noel made his way to the top of the wall and checked the situation at this gate.
Surprisingly, they had just finished one side and started turning to this side of the wall.
It would be better if he joined them now, so Noel checked the demons attacking the city first. As soon as he saw an incoming demon, he moved toward the demon and slashed it a few times before kicking it off the wall.
He stepped on the demon and used it as a cushion to fall, stunning the soldiers, who didn't even realize Noel was there until he fell down.
"That's Iadre!" Paul shouted while pointing at the falling demon. "We're going to catch up to him. Make sure you don't hold anything back!"
"Oh!" The others shouted as they pumped their own spirit before unleashing a greater force.
When Noel saw their reaction from a distance, he realized those people were actually holding back. It seemed they were worried about the Superior Demon that they needed to preserve their strength in order to fight one.
That was why Noel immediately waved his sword toward the demons that stopped him from regrouping with his group.
"Move away!" Noel shouted as he used his Ignition Sword to cause several explosions, killing and blowing the monsters away.
It didn't take too long for him to regroup with his squad.
"Iadre!" Paul smiled. "How is the situation on your side?"
"Everything has been taken care of. We just have to deal with these demons before helping the Demon Hunting Squad take on the Peak Level Demons. As for the Superior Demon, it's just a false alarm.
"It turns out all those Peak Level Demons are staying in the same place because it's actually a demon farm related to the Count. That's why they're organized like that."
"What a demon farm?" The squad was completely dumbfounded when they heard the information. But no matter how inexperienced Noel was, they knew he wasn't someone who shared false information.
Paul trusted him for the time being and asked, "So, the entire situation is due to the Count and we don't need to worry about the Superior Demon?"
"Yeah. Rose is calming down the people for the time being and she will regroup with us soon. As for us…"
Noel didn't finish his words. All of them knew what they were supposed to do.
Since there was no more threat they had to consider, they had lost the reason for holding back.
That was why all of them released their Spiritual Energy to the fullest, planning to kill all these demons in an instant.
"Haaa!" Paul roared while smashing a demon's head with his warhammer. The head was obliterated and the weapon ended up hitting the ground, destroying the soil.
Jonathan raised his hand, using his Telekinesis to raise a few Low Level Demons. At the same time, Zion had leaped into the air and kicked these demons in rapid succession.
Ben and Stella also became the vanguard, dealing with all the demons around them.
Last but not least, Noel also contributed to the battle by swinging his swords multiple times at the demons while using the Ignition Sword. At the very least, he could kill some demons for his missions.
Rose soon regrouped with them, monitoring the situation from the top of the wall. She was using her illusion to inform them about the enemy's movement.
The group cleared the entire wall quickly to the point the soldiers on top of the wall were shocked and started cheering for them. It was clear that there was a huge burden relieved from their shoulders.
The Demon Relief Squad ignored those cheers as they continued sweeping the demons.
It took them an hour before they reached the other side, where all the Demon Hunting Squad stopped the Peak Level Demons. As expected of the lack of members of the Demon Hunting Squad, they could only stop the Peak Level Demons, not kill them.
However, this was enough because the balance was soon tipped over the moment the Demon Relief Squad came.
Paul split the group and allowed them to work together with the Demon Hunting Squad to kill their respective Peak Level Demon. Of course, Rose informed the Demon Hunting Squad about the misinterpretation regarding the Superior Demon.
When they heard there was no more threat after killing these Peak Level Demons, they became energetic again and started releasing all the strength they had left in their bodies.
It didn't take too long for them to completely kill all the Peak Level Demons, especially Paul, who worked together with Noel.
Just like how he did it with the Demon Hunting Squad's Vice Captain, he also helped Paul from a distance before delivering a killing blow.
After killing the first Peak Level Demon, he moved toward another one and got another kill.
In the end, Noel managed to kill two Peak Level Demons and severely injured one. Unfortunately, the last one didn't add his mission counts.
After Rose made sure there were no demons left around the city, she finally allowed them to gather while she made their way to the captain of the garrison. She had to inform them about their success so that the soldiers would be adjusted accordingly.
After that, she rushed to the Demon Hunting Squad and the Demon Relief Squad to suggest going to their headquarters.
But when she arrived, Paul surprisingly said with a smile as if he fully agreed with the suggestion. "Alright. After this, we're going to fix the bridge and head to the Demon Hunting Squad's headquarters. If possible, we will also repair some of the damage done…"
Rose thought it was her role to convince him, but she soon saw Noel, who winked his right eye playfully as if telling him he was the culprit.
