Balanar's eyes glinted with fury as he looked around at the remaining devils. "How can we be losing to these insignificant humans?" he spat out, his voice laced with venom.
One of the devils stepped forward, "Perhaps it's time we retreat, Balanar. We are outnumbered and outmatched. We can regroup and come back stronger."
Balanar's expression darkened, "Retreat? I did not come here to retreat. I came here to find Fein and exact my revenge."
Before the other devil could respond, Balanar unsheathed his sword and swiftly swung it towards the devil's neck, beheading him in a single motion. The other devils recoiled in shock and fear, knowing that Balanar was not one to be crossed.
"We will not retreat," Balanar growled, his eyes blazing with rage. "We will fight until the last man stands. We will make these humans pay for what they have done to us."
With a flick of his wrist, he gestured for the remaining devils to follow him. They knew better than to argue with him, and so they followed, their expressions a mix of fear and determination.
As they moved towards the battlefield, Balanar could feel his blood boiling with anger and hatred. He was determined to find Fein, no matter the cost, and he would make sure that the humans paid for what they had done.
...
As the battle raged on, the civilians and common folks watched from afar with bated breath. They were witnessing the fight for their survival, the future of the North, and the hope for their children.
The sounds of explosions and roars echoed throughout the land, and the sky turned dark as smoke and dust filled the air. The people watched as the degu users fought bravely against the demons, wielding their powers with determination and courage.
A young girl named Lily watched in awe as she saw one of the degu users summon a giant tornado, ripping through the battlefield and pushing back the demons. "Mom, did you see that? He's like a superhero!" she exclaimed, pointing towards the degu user.
Her mother, Mary, nodded in agreement. "Yes, dear. They are our heroes, fighting for our lives," she said, wiping away a tear from her eyes.
As the battle raged on, the people cheered in their hearts for the degu users. They saw them as their last hope, and they prayed for their success. "Come on, you can do it!" a man shouted, his voice hoarse from shouting.
Another woman, Sarah, had her hands clasped tightly together in prayer. "Please let them win, for the sake of our children," she whispered.
The battle was intense, and the outcome was uncertain. The people watched in agony as they saw some of the degu users fall in battle. Tears streamed down their faces as they mourned for the fallen heroes.
A man named John watched as he saw a degu user fall to the ground, pierced by the sharp claws of a demon. "No! Come on, get up! You can do it!" he shouted, his voice filled with emotion.
The civilians knew that the battle was not only for the degu users but for themselves as well. They saw the demons as a threat to their families, their homes, and their way of life. And so they cheered with all their might for the degu users, hoping that their cheers would reach them and give them the strength to keep fighting.
As the battle drew to a close, the people watched in amazement as they saw the degu users prevail. They cheered and clapped their hands in joy and gratitude, knowing that their lives had been spared. There are only seven devils, and fifteen degu users on the human side.
One woman, named Emily, wept as she saw the degu users emerging victorious. "Thank you, thank you so much," she murmured, wiping away her tears.
The people knew that the fight was not over, but they were filled with hope and gratitude for the degu users. They knew that as long as they had heroes like them, they could face any challenge and overcome any obstacle.
The fifteen degu users were already battered and bruised from their previous fights with the first seven devils. However, they knew they had to fight on to protect their people and the North. The seven devils, including Balanar, were still standing strong, with barely a scratch on them.
As the nine new devils descended from the sky, the degu users knew that their situation had gone from bad to worse. They were outnumbered and outmatched, with injuries that limited their movements.
Balanar laughed menacingly as he saw the degu users struggling. "Pathetic. You are nothing compared to the might of the devil race. You should have surrendered when you had the chance."
One of the degu users, a young woman named Sienna, gritted her teeth and replied, "We will never surrender to the likes of you. We fight to protect our home and our people. And we will fight to the very end."
The other degu users nodded in agreement, ready to face their opponents. They knew it would be a tough fight, but they were determined to give it their all.
The devils charged forward, with Balanar leading the way. The degu users braced themselves for impact and launched their counterattacks. The air crackled with magic and energy as the two sides clashed.
Sienna used her light-based powers to blind the devils, while another degu user named Kaelin summoned vines to ensnare them. However, the devils quickly recovered and retaliated with their own attacks.
"Is that all you've got?" Balanar sneered as he deflected a blast of wind from a degu user named Caspian. "You're barely worth our time."
The degu users knew they had to think of something fast before the devils overwhelmed them. They quickly huddled together, whispering their plans.
"We need to split up and take them down one by one," Sienna said. "We can't let them surround us like this."
The degu users nodded and divided themselves into smaller groups, each targeting a specific devil. The devils tried to regroup, but they were caught off guard by the degu users' coordinated attacks.
