Chapter 1004 Victory

?A giant wolf released a stream of light from his mouth toward the wall, only to be intercepted by an arrow.

The arrow overwhelmed the burst of energy and eventually reached the giant wolf. The latter tried to avoid it, but it was too late. The arrow tore apart its jaws.

Unfortunately for the beast, it didn't have the time to wail in pain as another arrow arrived, exploding its head.

*Roar!*

*Roar!*

*Roar!*

The demons around it looked like they were mourning for him, but it was useless. Numerous rains of lights had been summoned, raining them down.

On the other side, there was another beast that stuck to the ground. Its body was completely tied to the ground.

The other demons tried to sever the threads, but it was impossible to do it. Another arrow then came toward this demon and blew its body apart.

Not long after, a bird fell to the ground with its body completely charred.

"Kill them!" Howard pointed forward while waving his sword to kill the remaining enemy.

There was a Superior Demon in front of them, but it was currently being drowned by a giant sphere of water. Howard and Andreas leaped into the air and slashed the Superior Demon, ending its life.

Behind that Superior Demon was yet another Superior Demon. This time, the demon seemed to be burned inside out by a radiant light that permeated the dark sky.

Howard and Andreas didn't hesitate to pa.s.s through him, leading the rest of the soldiers to the south. It was a quick battle as another radiant light killed dozens of demons.

Once they reached the corner, they saw another Superior Demon dying with numerous holes in its body. Even the normal demons didn't survive.

It was a quick operation as they made their way back to the north wall.

However, the moment they reached the north wall, they noticed that the demons were retreating.

"!!!" Howard widened his eyes in shock. This could only mean one thing. They had won.

Sadly, he couldn't cheer just yet as Noel suddenly pointed at the demons and shouted, "Kill them!"

Howard's expression turned serious. He didn't know why Noel wanted to do it, considering they had retreated, but he acknowledged the order and commanded the army to chase down these demons.

Noel thought that there were still tens of thousands of demons and a few Superior Demons that Damian had stopped, so it wouldn't be good if they regrouped. They could either attack this place again or crush Damian. Hence, there was only one thing to do, they simply had to crush them until they couldn't do anything.

The Gem Lord and Faust also followed them, eliminating a lot of demons in the process.

If not for the water that washed away the blood, the pungent smell of blood would have overwhelmed the city.

During the chase, they eliminated another few thousand demons and one Superior Demon.

In the end, the demons divided into a few groups and scattered.

They eliminated two groups and let the others survive. Meanwhile, Noel had sent out a member of the flying squad to send out the information to Damian, ensuring that they didn't die.

Finally, eight hours after the beginning of the war, the demons had a full-scale retreat and left the border.

Noel also got the notification from his system.

[Mission: Defeat the Demon Army (Completed).]

[Description: Exterminate the demons and repel the demon army from this land.]

[Reward: Demon Exterminator Medal.]

Looking at this mission gave him a sense of relief. The war was finally over.

Noel couldn't help but smile, saying, "Recall Howard back."

"My lord does that mean..." Grandell's eyes were br.i.m.m.i.n.g with expectation. n(0)vel(b)(j)(n)served as the original host for this chapter's release on N0v3l-B1n.

"Yeah. This war is our victory." Noel nodded in confirmation. "You can do it, Grandell."

Grandell clenched his fists while shouting, "Blow out the horns!"

All of a sudden, a heavy honk echoed across the city.

The soldiers on the wall couldn't help but turn around, the people in the city raised their heads, and some of the injured people tried to rise. This horn only had a single meaning.

Grandell used the last bit of his energy to raise his voice. "This war is over! It's our VICTORY!"

Right after those words, the trumpets were blown, changing the atmosphere to a festive mood.

People started looking at each other as if they couldn't believe it. How could anyone believe it? This was the largest-scale attack that happened in the last three hundred years.

More than seventy thousand demons and more than twenty Superior Demons An incomplete city that only had a single wall withstood their attacks and killed a lot of their commandants.

The Saintess couldn't help but smile. While she hadn't dropped her guard yet, she could still hear what was going on outside, especially with Anna sitting next to her.

Anna said the same thing as what Layla wanted to say. "We've won."

"We've won!" The cheers erupted inside the city.

The people rejoiced and hugged each other in disbelief. The injured ones lied down with a big smile on their faces, the kids were cheering nonstop, the elderly were crying.

The soldiers on top were also rejoicing. They were jumping up and down while cheering no matter how tired they were.

Charlotte looked up with a smile. She had witnessed the ability of the previous lord, but this time, she was convinced that his son had surpa.s.sed him. "To think that we are able to achieve this in our current state."

"Indeed." Douglas smiled. "This city will become the mark of the changing era. I wish to complete this city as soon as possible and find a successor that can take care of this city. Unlike you, I have yet to find a successor."

"With this victory, we can do a lot of things. In fact, the money we can get just from this victory is insane, especially regarding the Rune Academy. The Lord has shown the strength of runes, so there's no way people will be stingy if they want to get a spot." Balott smirked. "I smell a lot of money."

"Well, the immediate danger is gone, but I'm afraid the long war has begun. I'm going to have a headache after this. But for sure, I have to spread the news as quickly as possible. Let's shock all four countries with the deeds of our Lord." Harley chuckled.

"Indeed. Even though we'll have a lot of money, I can't neglect my research. I have to make sure that these people have their bellies filled." Jasmine pumped her chest.

"It seems that breaking my neutrality by becoming his va.s.sal is the greatest decision I've ever made." Roel smiled.

"I guess he didn't lie at that time." Khalid smiled, recalling the words that Noel said to him when he tried to recruit him.

Sandra looked at the wall and muttered, "You have worked hard, Tristan. We were lucky to meet a good lord like him."

Felicia, who was lying down, said weakly, "Long live Noel Ardagan, Long live the Ardagan Family."

The pillars of the Ardagan Family weren't the only ones shocked by this victory. Even the helpers that Noel invited couldn't help but express their shock.

"It seems that the Saintess has made the correct decision. A headquarters, huh It seems that I have to work hard so that the Earl doesn't expel us or anything." Aurelia smiled. "Those oldies back home would definitely be overjoyed by the news."

The Water Lord smirked. "I knew it. That guy was already abnormal when I met him as a member of the Demon Relief Squad. Fortunately, my Silica Valley isn't that far from this place, so cooperation should be possible."

Clara looked at Noel with a proud smile. To think that her former subordinate would become someone she could only look up to. It hadn't even been long either. "Paul and the others would be happy to hear this."

Milfa scratched the back of her head. "What if, at that time, I lost the bet to him and ended up becoming his va.s.sal? Nonetheless, it seems that Dimitri has chosen the correct master to serve. I still have a lot to learn.

Faust closed his eyes, recalling the time Noel helped his squad. "It's truly surprising that a person can grow that fast. Then again, I should be happy because another good fighter and lord have appeared in the Muivell Kingdom. I'm looking forward to his future achievements."

Last but not least, Duke Briton looked at the sky while thinking, 'The era is changing, the young will surpa.s.s the old He is going to become a h.e.l.l of a monster in the future. Rune, huh? I should praise His Majesty for making the correct decision by allying the kingdom with him. I can see that a lot of things that were not possible in the past will be created through runes. With this, his name is enough to make the royal family of this kingdom panic. Sadly, I won't be able to see their faces.'

Duke Briton was still annoyed by how the Muivell Kingdom acted when they tried to stop them from coming to the Muivell Kingdom. They had to pay a hefty toll and do a lot of troublesome things just to come to this kingdom.

Last but not least, it was Noel. He was standing on top of the wall, looking at his city. In front of him was the town he swore to protect. Behind him was the battlefield where he laid waste to his opponents. Besides him were the comrades that fought together with him.

This was not his victory. It was everyone's victory.
