Miminga recalled those memories of the past, as she looked into the distance, she felt bad that she had no memento of Hector aside from those fluffy memories, everything he gifted to her was food, so she ate it all already… Although inside of her home, she held some of the orange peels that she got from the oranges he gave to her, they decorated her room with a nice citric scent…
"Miminga… My daughter, are you okay?" Asked Kraxka, as the army of Lizardmen would reach the enemy in a few more seconds.
"Ah…! Yeah, I am okay! Okay, dad, I-I will fight well and see if he's… If he's alive…" Said Miminga. "Thank you for… being so nice with me… I guess you changed your mind at the end…"
"It is more like I was forced; you've been so stubborn this entire time… You never took a mate no matter what I tried to do for you, so I guess I just kind of gave up!" Sighed her father.
"I-I'm sorry…" Sighed Miminga.
"…No, don't worry about it." Sighed her father. "I know you're an intelligent, strong, and beautiful girl, so I just want the best for you, I don't really care about anything else at this point, I just want you to be happy. Your happiness is my happiness…"
"R-Really?" She asked.
"Yes, Miminga…" He sighed. "I learned it pretty late, I am sorry… Also, with this, we can clean our names with these people, perhaps that boy could help us out if he's still alive and well, if he's still remembering you."
"Oh… Right… I gave him a fang with a threat back then, which he used as a necklace… Do you think he still could have it?" She wondered.
"Y-You gave him a compromise necklace?!" Asked her father, opening his big jaws in surprise. "T-This girl is really something… Agh, I don't know, I never meet him, I hope he's not married with another human or something… If that ever happens, Miminga, you have to accept it and move on, alright?"
"…I understand." Sighed Miminga. The possibility of such a nice, cheerful, and handsome boy to have a wife and even a family with children was highly probably. Just imagining him thinking about her this entire time was already unconceivable realistically, he was a human after all, perhaps what he felt for her was just a thing of his childhood, and after entering his puberty the boy began to like human girls more, and found grossed out for ever having an attraction to her… There were many insecurities in her heart, but Miminga thought the same as her father.
"As long as I see him alive and happy… I think I can also be happy." She said with a smile. Her father nodded for a bit, understanding his daughter's feelings about the boy, she really loved him, to the point she was even willing to let him go, as long as she knows he's happy with how he is.
"I see… My daughter, be strong now, we are entering into battle!" Said her father, raising his spear and conjuring Magic, as the floor suddenly trembled and large tree roots began to entangle the enemy several meters away from him, paralyzing them on them spot for easy pickings! "Now, warriors, charge! Don't have mercy, kill the enemy, help the people!"
"RAAAAHH!"
"Let's go!"
"Fight! Fight!"
"Don't give up!"
"Today will be the day things will change!"
As the many lizardman warriors, both males and females fought bravely in battle and quickly unleashed all sorts of weapon techniques imbued by the power of their weapons, which froze their enemies and facilitated their ability to slay them, Miminga charged forward with her father, pointing her staff at her foes, and generating several spears made of flames, firing them around the battlefield. At the distance, she saw the people of the village where Hector lived.
"I will protect Hector's village…! I won't let these savages have their way!" She said confidently, as she conjured storms of flames everywhere, and also even conjured some limited ice attribute spells that came with the amazing staff, freezing and burning two sides of the battlefield, she was perhaps the best magician after her father, and she wasn't bad at all with a spear either, as she held one with her free hand and impaled the enemies that got closer to the wolf mercilessly!
Meanwhile, in the other side of the battlefield, the combined forces of the village's guards, the adventurers, the mercenaries, and the sect disciples all fought against the armored savage lizardmen and the giant miasmic beasts. Their power was frightening, but by combining their attacks and cooperatively fighting these monsters, they were actually defeating them one by one, but very slowly!
However, as the forces of Drake had arrived her as well and began to aid everyone, they were able to relieve some of the stress and burdens they were receiving, and the medics were able to bring the almost fatally wounded inside the village to be healed and treated. Although the power of the Miasmic Beasts and the Lizardmen wearing dark armor was frightening, they had the weakness against light, such weakness made it so the amazing legendary weapon-looking spear that Hector was wielding now shone the brightest in the battle!
Hector was gaining the spotlight in the entire battle, and even the sect disciples were left flabbergasted over his heroic demeanor, his amazing spear techniques, and his great leadership, despite being just a young guard, he was someone quite experienced already, and could lead most of the adventurers, mercenaries, and other guards into battle, and correctly organize them into the battle too.
However, the beasts were powerful, although they took many hits and grew weakened, they were still standing back up again obnoxiously, and even Hector was beginning to grow tired once more… However, he quickly realized something was happening at the back of the enemy army, a mysterious army of people mounting wolves and wearing silver and azure armor emerged out of nowhere!
"W-Who are they?" He asked in surprise.
