"!!!" Igor's declaration obviously raised a lot of objections. After all, they wanted to bring their own people to escape.
Paul stepped forward and said, "Let me assist you in stopping the enemies. I'm also a Spirit Grandmaster! Jonathan. You should have enough power to bring everyone up, right?"
"Yes, Sir." Jonathan nodded without hesitation. It looked cold, but Jonathan had called Paul with 'Sir' to show his respect. He knew that Paul planned to sacrifice his life for the group.
Paul said, "Stella will take my position. You have to escape as far as you can."
Stella clenched her fists. She obviously wanted to fight as well, but even if she fought here, she would end up dying without any contribution. She would be more useful if she could lead the group to safety.
Noel obviously didn't like this decision. Paul had been accommodating him this whole time. Even in the last defeat, he was the first to forgive him. That was why he didn't want him to die.
"Noo—!" Noel shouted, but Stella suddenly grabbed his hand, and Zion locked his arms so that Noel couldn't resist. "Jonathan!"
Jonathan nodded. He targeted all the people from the Demon Relief Squad and started activating his Telekinesis.
Right before their bodies left the ground, Igor was punched again and blown in their direction. Paul caught him and tried to stop his momentum while saying, "Go!"
"Do you think I'll let you go?" You must be the Demon Relief Squad that little brat Laufey talked about so much. The rest of you have to die, but that little dwarf will have to go back with me!" Alexander jumped toward them, ready to stop them.
Paul was planning to sacrifice his life in order to stop him for a few seconds. But suddenly, a few huge shadow blades fell on top of Alexander.
They were so strong that they managed to force Alexander to stop and use his other arm and entire body to stop it.
"Huh? This power…" Alexander raised his eyes, seeing a familiar figure.
He descended to the ground while striking Alexander with his sword. Alexander blocked the sword with his arm, but the black-colored energy started messing with his body and eventually allowed it to penetrate his impenetrable skin.
"!!!" This attack shocked everyone who witnessed it, including the Demon Relief Squad.
"This level of attack power even though it's still in Spirit Grandmaster Realm… So, it's you." Alexander smirked, looking at this new person. "The man who was known as the Shadow of the Demon Banner Army, the former commander candidate, Dimitri!"
"Dimitri?!" Noel was just about to call them, but he didn't expect Dimitri to appear here on his own accord.
"!!!" Igor and Faust were completely shocked when they heard Dimitri's identity. But the person in question only said, "What are you saying? I'm nothing but the butler of the Ardagan Family."
Dimitri glanced at Noel and said with a smile, "Master. Please go up and leave the rest to me. I'll do my best to minimize the loss, and I can assure you I can come back just fine."
"What are you—" Noel wanted to say something, but Jonathan had begun to use his Telekinesis to climb up.
"Do you think I'll let them get away?!" Alexander jumped toward Noel, trying to drag them down.
"Master. I shall show you the power you need to acquire if you want to stand at the top!" Soon, Dimitri's own shadow engulfed his body. The shadow formed a black suit that covered his entire body, including his head. There were a pair of red eyes that shone behind this black energy. "True Spirit Body, Endless Shadow Body."
In an instant, Dimitri's Spiritual Energy erupted and even shook the entire hall. With a single wave of his hand, multiple shadows emerged from the darkness and extended like a whip, circling around Alexander's body.
"!!!" Alexander widened his eyes, realizing that he couldn't move. He glanced back and saw Dimitri's new form. He couldn't help but laugh. "Another True Spirit Body?! Hahaha, I guess I should expect something like that from a former commander's candidate."
Dimitri suddenly disappeared.
Alexander's eyes flashed as his body began to move. He was exerting so much power that even the entire wall couldn't stop him.
*Rumble!*
The stones crumbled, and the shadow ended up falling along with the wall. Alexander raised his hand and caught the black blade that came from above.
It was Dimitri. He used all his strength and knocked Alexander back to the ground, not allowing him to chase after Noel.
As soon as he fell to the ground, Igor rushed toward him and tried to punch his face. But surprisingly, Alexander was so agile that his fist also reached Igor's face, even though his body was still unstable.
"A good punch." Alexander smirked as blood flowed out of the corner of his mouth. But his punch hit Igor's face, cracking his jaw and breaking a few teeth.
But before he did further damage, there was a lightning arrow that flew straight to his head.
Alexander used his teeth to catch it before throwing it away.
"!!!" Faust was shocked, never expecting to see his arrow get stopped so easily.
"I see. So, I will be fighting you three." Alexander smirked and shouted to the people, "Chase after those people! Leave the people down here to the demons!"
The people from the Supreme Devil Organization hurriedly broke through their formation and started climbing the hole.
Dimitri clenched his blade tightly as he was about to cut them down. But before he could move, his body shook. He raised his head, seeing Alexander glaring at him.
His instinct was telling him that if he chased after them, Alexander would surely heavily injure him.
"Kh." Dimitri couldn't do anything other than let those people climb into the hole. He could only hope that Damian would stop all of them for Noel. It wasn't that Noel wasn't smart enough to overcome this situation. It was simply that the Supreme Devil Organization had finally launched an all-out attack.
"You guys did a number on us, especially the Plant Lord. So, the organization has decided to pay back the humiliation by sending me here!" Alexander smirked.
As soon as they heard it, they realized that there would soon be a huge war between the Supreme Devil Organization and the Demon Banner Army.
"If that's the case, I would like to experience the strength of the strongest Demon Saint, who is known to have limitless strength." Dimitri's tone became extremely cold.
