The place where Pyra and Andromeda walked out was a large road that was surrounded by grassy plains on both sides. Even though Pyra's skill was very accurate, it wasn't perfect. So the portal that Andromeda opened placed them in front of a large platoon of soldiers.
The platoon of soldiers that were in charge of transporting the slaves to Uta stopped on the road as the general in front saw the two maids appear from a portal. The general rose his hand and told the platoon to stop and everyone was curious about why they suddenly stopped. Was there a beast in the way? Just kill it and let's keep moving!
The soldiers were walking on foot and they put most of the slaves on their horses since most of the slaves were injured and tired. This was a command from the general and some of the soldiers didn't like this order. They were also tired so why did they have to walk while the slaves rode on the horses? The soldiers just wanted to get to Uta as quickly as possible so that they could go back to join the hero instead of acting as glorified escorts!
The general in front of the platoon eyed the two women cautiously. He could easily tell that the two of them were demons since Pyra and Andromeda had distinct demon features. But this wasn't the thing that put him on edge. What put him on edge was the fact that they just used spatial magic. Spatial magic was an SSS-class skill and you have to be an SS-class at least before you can use it! That means that at least one of these women is an SS class! The general was a bulky and tall man and he was an SS-class so he knew he could handle one of them on his own if he needs to. There were many S-class soldiers with them and if they all joined forces then they might be able to handle the second SS-class. The general nodded and he was about to take a step forward to call for an attack but then he felt one of them release her BloodLust!
Andromeda released her BloodLust at its maximum and the general felt the entire army behind him shake at once! It was like a giant monster was looking down at them from the sky! This isn't SS-class at all! Isn't this the same as the Grand Commanders!? This is SSS-class!!
Andromeda couldn't hold back her bloodlust anymore once she saw the slaves smiling and happy because they were rescued. She squeezed both hands into fists and she spoke to Pyra.
"We can't let a single one get out alive,"
Pyra nodded land put her hand to the side to bring out her mace from the spatial space! That was the signal that told the general that they were about to attack and he immediately turned around with a shout!
"Run back!! Run back!! Scatter around the -!!!"
Slam!!
Boooommmm!!
Before he could finish what he was saying, Pyra's mace slammed into his back with a force greater than anything he has ever felt in his entire life! His spine bent inwards and burst out from the front of his body before he exploded in blood and gore!
The army was shocked into silence as they saw the gruesome death of their commander! The first people to get back their senses were the S-class knights in the army and one of them shouted like a madman!
"Everybody Run!!! Soldiers, get into formation!!"
The soldiers all slapped their horses to make them run away with the slaves and then the soldiers got into formation! Pyra ran forward and jumped over the long line of soldiers and she slammed her mace down as she landed in their midst!
Booom!
The shockwave sent everyone flying and the soldiers broke their formation as most of them started to run in to attack! Some of the S-class soldiers ran straight for Andromeda and she didn't even move a muscle as she activated her eyes.
[Ragan] has been activated
The eyes of every soldier in front of her turned black and they all stopped running immediately as they were caught in her control. The soldiers behind them were wondering why they suddenly stopped and they tried to get past them to get to Andromeda! Andromeda gave an order to the soldiers under her control and they turned around and attacked!!
The soldiers under Andromeda's control roared like wild beasts as they cut down and killed any humans that they got their hands on! Andromeda's eye could take control over the cognitive reasoning of anyone so they would not stop fighting no matter how injured they get! Even if they lost a hand or a foot, they would just keep on charging forward with reckless abandon as they fought using anything they could get their hands on! They bit, scratched, and stabbed their way into their comrades as they made a path for Andromeda to move forward!
Pyra slammed her mace into the soldier running towards her from the side and the man's body flew back like a comet as it slammed into three other soldiers! The man was already dead before he even landed on the ground and his comrades were splattered with his blood as they all shouted in fright! The soldiers there were completely shocked by the display of strength by the two maids! They looked from Pyra to Andromeda and they concluded that they didn't have a snowball's chance in hell of winning this battle! It was like the entire army came to this conclusion at the same time because they all dropped their weapons and ran!
Pyra watched them running away and she squeezed her hands around her mace in annoyance. So these fools think they can destroy my master's hard work and I will let them live!? None of them will kive! Not even a single one!
[Gravity Seals] has been deactivated
The weights on Pyra's arms deactivated and Pyra crouched into a runner's position before blasting off with a massive 'Boom!!". She pulled her mace back and the soldiers were not even able to go more than ten steps before she descended on them! Her mace tore through more than twenty soldiers at once and the grounds around them were painted red! The other soldiers were blown away by the impact and they tried to scramble to their feet to fight back or run but before they could go anywhere they were suddenly attacked by other soldiers that were under Andromeda's control!
The slaves were the only ones that managed to go far at all and Andromeda narrowed her eyes at them in the distance. They were on horseback so they were able to run faster than the soldiers under her control. Andromeda put her hand up and twenty archers lined up beside her and they all cocked back their arrows and pointed them upwards! Andromeda gave them the order to fire and they all released the arrow toward the slaves!
Normally, these arrows would not reach the slaves. The slaves were too far away and even if the arrows managed to get to them they would only kill two or three people and the other arrows would miss. But Andromeda already knew that! She knew that the arrows wouldn't make it all the way to the slaves, so she opened a portal right in front of the arrows that were fired and opened the exit portal right behind the slaves!
The portal sent the arrows straight towards the slaves! The sudden shift in the direction allowed the arrows to keep their momentum and the arrows that hit the slaves were moving at full speed!!
Squelch! Squelch! Squelch! Squelch! Squelch!
"Argh!"
"Ahh!"
"Don't look back! Run!"
"Mum! Mum!"
The slaves screamed as some of them were hit in the back by arrows and they fell off their horses! Some of the arrows missed the slaves and hit the horses that the slaves were riding and those slaves fell to the ground as the horses fell over! Andromeda saw that not all the humans were dead and so she put her hand out again and told the archers to fire a second barrage of arrows! Andromeda wasn't going to stop until each and every one of them was dead!
.......
Quinn and her platoon of soldiers raced towards where the soldier was taking them at full speed! The distance wasn't too far so they were able to make it to the field before long and all of them had to stop as they came upon the scene. It was like a holocaust! There was blood flowing everywhere and dead bodies littered the ground in every direction. The slaves were dead, the soldiers were dead and even the horses were dead!
And in the middle of this carnage stood two figures.
Pyra and Andromeda were still busy getting rid of the remaining soldiers so they didn't see the new platoon of soldiers that arrived. Although it didn't matter to them even if a new platoon came as reinforcement. The two maids still had more than enough mana and strength to keep fighting for a long time!
"My God. What is this? Are those really demons?"
The person that spoke was one of the soldiers beside Quinn. And she couldn't help but agree with his thoughts. When she heard that demons were attacking the slaves, she thought that there was an entire army of them. She expected to see hundreds of demons attacking them. But what she was seeing was not what she expected! There were only two demons killing everyone like they were chickens! Who are those women!? No one ever told Quinn that demons like these existed!
