Demon border fortress.

Norgus was holding a two-meter-long sword in both hands. The tip of the sword was pointed at the neck of a fallen Chaos Fiend.

“Next.”

Norgus withdrew his sword. The Chaos Fiend took his weapon and retreated to the back, somewhat discouraged.

This was a very traditional activity in the border fortress, or… the only form of entertainment.

It was a sword compet.i.tion. Any soldier in the border fortress had the right to challenge Noggs. However, since Noggs stood in the center of the arena, no one had ever defeated him in swordsmanship.

Hearing Noggs’voice, the surrounding demon soldiers hesitated for a moment. Suddenly, a girl in plain clothes walked out of the crowd.

“What are you doing here?”The expression on Noggs’face instantly became terrifying.

“I just want to try.”

This girl from the Frost Kingdom named Agata had a tranquil smile on her face.

Noggs had always believed that humans were cowardly creatures. On the battlefield, they would be terrified to the point of collapse because of the strength of the demon race. Some soldiers would even resort to despicable means in order to survive.

However, this human girl was not afraid of demons at all. Nogus had kept her by his side for the sake of the protocrystal she possessed. He had intended to make her realize her position as a slave, however, he had done many things that gave Nogus a headache.

Nogus had once thought of executing this girl like other humans, but there was a voice in his heart that stopped him.

When Agata walked into the center of the crowd with his long sword, the surrounding soldiers also shouted out a similar cheer.

During this month, this human girl had helped the demons many times, including helping those evil demons who reeked of blood to bathe.

A small portion of the demons in the fortress had already acknowledged this brave girl.

Nogus glanced around with a terrifying gaze, and the cheering stopped abruptly.

Without saying a word, he repositioned himself in the most basic posture of swordsmanship. He held the hilt of his sword with both hands and leaned the blade against his left shoulder.

Agata also positioned herself for battle. She charged at her opponent with a longsword of the same length as Nogus’. The two longswords interweaved with each other and burst out dazzling sparks, the ground, which was already full of cracks, cracked further.

Her swordsmanship was no match for Noggs’. After less than three rounds, Noggs waved the weapon in his hand and knocked away the weapon in his opponent’s hand.

“Stand up. This is not a place where you should be.”

Noggs handed the longsword to the knight who walked out from the other side. He looked at Agata who was sitting on the ground and said.

Agata obediently stood up from the ground, patted the dust behind him and followed Nogus.

The atmosphere along the way was somewhat gloomy.

“Are you angry?”Agata took the initiative to break the silence and asked the tall chaos fiend beside him in a low voice.

This sentence made Nogus stop in his footsteps. He instantly pulled out the sword by his waist and stabbed Agata’s cheek before Agata could react.

Light golden hair slowly fell down along with the blade of the sword.

Noggs’long sword cut through Agata’s long hair and stabbed into the wall behind her..

If it was a normal person, they would have been scared to the point of trembling the moment they saw Noggs pulling out the sword. However, Noggs could not find any expression of fear on this human girl’s face.

“If you want to live.”Noggs pulled out the sword that stabbed into the wall behind him and stared at her. “Don’t ask unnecessary questions.”

Noggs had never met such a troublesome human girl. At first, Noggs could use the reason of ‘I need her original crystal that can sing’as a reason to keep her.

However, this reason had disappeared half a month ago when Joshua pa.s.sed him a ‘Elven poem’that he could listen to directly on the mana net.

Therefore, Noggs could execute this human as a matter of course. However, he realized that every time this thought appeared in his mind, his heart would be very irritable.

Meanwhile, Nogus had also found a reason for himself: ‘perhaps he had treated this human as a pet.’.

Nogus ignored the human girl and walked straight towards the city wall. His personal guard, the Chaos Fiend Phyllis, had been waiting for him at the city wall for a long time.

Nogus climbed all the way to the city wall of the border fortress. Standing on the city wall, he could see the raging frost and snow outside the border fortress.

The Cold Wind made his restless mood somewhat calm down.

“The blizzard… hasn’t subsided?”

Nogus looked at the cold wind plains covered by the frost and snow and said.

“Your Highness, are you worried?”Phyllis was very keen to detect the abnormality in Nogus’voice.

“I’m worried… The Blizzard blocking the footsteps of the human army is a good thing for the demon world, but it’s a bit of a Downer for me.”

Nogus looked at the gauntlet covering his hand, which was covered with all kinds of sword marks.

At this time of the year, Nogus should have led his army to fight against the humans on the cold wind plains. It was a battle where blood and blades intertwined.

The demons stationed in the border fortress had spent an entire year to prepare for this day.

However, the snowstorm this year did not show any signs of dissipating, and the human troops that were supposed to arrive at the border were also nowhere to be seen.

This was definitely something worth celebrating for the entire demon world, and it gave them enough time to prepare.

However, such a long period of rest made Nogus feel a little… at a loss.

It was not just Nogus. The other demons in the border fortress were the same.

This fortress was built to defend against foreign enemies. The soldiers were in a state of war preparation throughout the year. Only the battlefield was the place he was most familiar with. If he were on the battlefield now.., he would not have encountered so many complicated things.

“Phyllis, can you imagine that this long war will end one day?”Nogus suddenly thought of the girl from the Frost Country and asked the personal guard beside him.

“I can’t imagine it, Your Highness.”Phyllis answered without even thinking.

“I can imagine it. My brother told me that the real enemy is the court of Justice from the Sacred Religion Kingdom. However, we have been at war with the frost kingdom for more than 70 years. Hatred has long acc.u.mulated along with the blood on the blade. Therefore, this war wants to end. Either the Frost Kingdom is destroyed, or the border fortress is broken by the humans,”Noggs said in a low voice.

At this moment, a messenger from the fortress half-knelt behind Noggs.

“Your Highness, third Prince Jose sent his servant to deliver a gift.”

“Gift?”

Ever since his last trip to the imperial city, Noggs no longer dared to treat his younger brother as a child who still needed protection.

During this one month, Noggs learned through the magic net what Jose had done in the human city of Nolan. Even now, he still found it unbelievable.

The magic net provided Noggs with an excellent way to obtain information about the humans, as well as a communication spell called message.

As a qualified general, Noggs clearly understood how useful message could be on the battlefield.

Noggs immediately led his personal guards to the warehouse where the fortress stored the backup supplies. Anything that wanted to enter the fortress would be stored there.

On the way to the warehouse, Nogus pa.s.sed by a garden. This was originally a barren plain within the fortress, but ever since the human girl Agata came, she had started to plant cold-resistant flowers here.

Nogus pa.s.sed through the garden and arrived at the warehouse. Here, a sin demon named Zannas had been waiting for a long time.

There was no complicated etiquette between the demons. The sin demon directly took out a primary crystal inlaid with the leaves of the world tree.

Magic power was injected into the primary crystal, and a moving ‘painting’appeared on the wall in front of Nogus’eyes.

This painting was not the childish ‘beauty and the demon’that Nogus had seen in the weave. It depicted a war!

“His Highness Prince Shier led the people and army into the castle controlled by the judges. What Happened Tonight is destined to be remembered in history.”

The deep voice introduced everything that happened in the painting.

Noggs only saw the light of fire. The light was formed by the torches held by countless humans, and the torches they held lit up the imperial capital of the Frost Kingdom.

“When did this happen?”Looking at the scene, Nogus asked the sin fiend in disbelief.

“Three days ago,”the sin fiend said.

“Three days ago…”

Looking at the scene of the ‘king’of frost country being sent to the execution platform, Nogus felt very complicated.

The city that he had dreamed of leading the demon army to break through had fallen into the hands of a group of humans!

At this moment, Noggs only had one thought in his mind. The old frost country had really been destroyed.
