Paladin Corr had a meaningful smile on his face. A farmer named Bardan had approached him before saying that his hair suddenly grew. And the foreigners who visited Valhalla Territory after seeing this strange phenomena all said the same thing.

“Huh? It’s Talmor Fati!!!”

“Ddiddiddi~ Ddiddiddi~ Talmor Fati~”

And Paladin Corr had a great idea. He would ask them to call him ‘Talmor’ and he would ask him to receive a monthly grain tribute from them that he could dedicate to Lord Minhyuk. And he also knew that all of these were brought about by the effects of his Frightening Instrument and his skill Athenae’s Prayer.

“Ahem, ahem.”

Then, the Vice Lord, Old Man Ben approached him.

“Oh, will the Vice Lord join us too?”

“Sure. What should I shout?”

“Talmor Fati!!”

“Then... Talmor Fati! Ddiddiddiddiddi!”

“Hahahahaha!”

Paladin Corr smiled cheerfully. At that moment... Corr saw that the ground where he planted the seeds was shaking. He quickly left behind the people that gathered to check on it. He saw that something had already begun to grow there. And Corr, who watched it all happen, was left in shock.

‘What the hell? A weapon?’

Something clearly grew out of the ground. There were hilts of a sword or perhaps it was the end of a spear. There was even a top of a shield and a tip of a helmet. But in the midst of them all, a seed grew faster than the others. When Corr looked at it closely, he couldn’t help but be shocked.

The existence that came out of the seed which grew higher than any other seed had a pair of eyes, a nose and a mouth. In other words, it was a face.

“A, a face?”

It was clearly a face made out of stone but even though its eyes were still closed, it was still most definitely a human head.

Corr did not have a bad head on his shoulders so he could easily tell some things. He had heard about Elvenheim and the demonic races’ invasion. And there was also this seed that was said to be dropped by an Ancient Monarch that was cursed by Verus. He knew that this seed possessed great power.

‘Th, the troops will definitely......!’

Corr’s eyes were dyed with surprise.

Lev was one of Iris Guild’s attack leaders. He was also one of the top three talented users under the warrior classes in the country. And Lev was now currently moving together with the elites that were formed from the Ares Guild’s and Iris Guild’s 1st attack teams.

Lev shook his head.

The Iris and Ares Guild had maintained their alliance after they successfully captured the largest city and they had risen to the top of the invasion war. And even though it was not explicitly spoken, the attack teams were all competing against each other. They were competing over getting the honor of being the first team to penetrate through the Elven Forest.

Currently, the Elf King had arrived at Elvenheim and had taken his position as the commander-in-chief. This happened yesterday. The Elf King arrived with an extremely exhausted and fatigued state. He had told them that all the entrances and exits to the Elven Forest were blocked. So the first thing that they needed to do was to get through the Elven Forest.

And Iris Guild was trying to squeeze through the cracks and gaps to recapture and take over the Elven Forest, the heart of the event. As they continued to march forward, the troops entered a small cave.

“Don’t let your guard down!”

“Yes!”

“Yes!”

It was said that the Elven Forest was home to more powerful demons compared to those present in Elvenheim. A thick smile was plastered on Lev’s face as he entered the small cave.

‘Fi, finally......!’

A faint and feeble light was shining at the end of the cave.

Once we reach that light then we will be able to reach the Elven Forest!

Lev was leading thirty elite and well-built men. As soon as Lev entered the cave the notifications went off.

Lev did not hesitate as he immediately checked the Elf’s Artifact Treasure Box.

Lev immediately accessed the information about the artifact. The item that he had received was a legendary artifact. He couldn’t help but feel delighted.

Caillan together with Ares Guild’s Guild Master had decided not to partake in the rewards that were directly obtained by the users. And because of that this Elf’s Sword literally belonged to Lev!

Then, at that moment...

“It seems like some rat got in here.”

He heard a low pitched voice somewhere near him. The source of the voice was a demon with a horn that stood taller than any other demon that he had ever seen.

At the same time, the notifications rang out.

“Keoheok!”

“Keuaaack!”

At that moment, the users felt that their breaths were running out as if something was holding their necks up.

Suddenly, hundreds of giant hellhounds appeared behind Rufel. No, perhaps there were still more to come.

Not long after, dozens of hellhounds stormed in.

Bang!

Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!

Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!

There were many people that got swept in the explosion and exploded together with the gas. In just an instant, his troops of 30 elites had been wiped out.

Then, Rufel moved his sword.

Slash—

Plop.

And the remaining person, Lev, was easily decapitated under his hands. Then, Rufel moved forward. What he saw outside the cave was none other than Allentian.

“After doing some maintenance, I’ll sweep right over there.”

A notification rang for all the users present in Elvenheim’s Rank A area.

And along with those notifications, an unidentified video popped out in front of the users. It was the video showing Commander Rufel as he muttered to himself while looking at Allentian. Then, information about Rufel came to their minds.

That was when the users realized that Rufel’s first point of attack was none other than ‘Allentian’. It was the largest city that was ever recaptured by users. It was even recaptured by two of the largest guilds in the country, Ares and Iris Guilds. This was also the place where the strongest defenses were being created by forming alliances with each other.

Caillan and Ares were both delighted.

It was the Commander-in-Chief and they would even be given enormous contribution points and rewards if they successfully hunted them.

What the two of them did was simple. Currently, they acquired four cities so they gathered and concentrated all of their troops in Allentian leaving only 20% to protect their other cities. Their ideas were that simple.

“If we completely stop the attack here, then we’ll be able to hog all of the contribution points and rewards.”

“Huhuhuhu. That would be great.”

There were currently more than 300 guilds present in Elvenheim. This number included small, medium and large guilds. Among all of the guilds, all of the contents were under the ‘monopoly’ of Ares and Iris Guild with support from their ‘allied’ guilds.

The total number that gathered for him alone was 800. What was more was that the individual users from Iris Guild had earned 30,000 contribution points each as a reward for being the first to reach the Elven Forest. And Iris Guild also purchased something special from the Elf’s Shop. It was none other than the ‘Blood Sticking Alliance’. This alliance would allow the other guilds allied to them to purchase goods from their Elf’s Shop. So they were all heavily armed with elven artifacts.

They were literally confident of their power.

“Their movements are extraordinary. It seems like the invasion is about to begin.”

“I heard that Rufel killed them himself. He even caused debuffs and explosions.”

“That’s a simple method. It seemed like even if they attacked weakly, they would still explode. Let’s bring forward those who can attack from afar and let the mages prepare for a wide-area-of-attack magic. We’ll first start with the suicide squad when they come in.”

They planned the operation. Suicide squad? If they did not let them near them at all, then that was all. There were plenty of bandits and assassins that set up countless traps in the city with the help of Robi, a user with the Hidden Class, Master of Traps.

They must first be within the reach of the traps. And if they get caught in the trap, then, the trap would in and of itself exert a stronger force than any other attack. That was how they set it up.

Even Twilight Chef Black began to distribute his most cherished buffed dishes to the best of the elites. It was a tremendous amount of preparation for the upcoming battle.

And along with those preparations, the network started broadcasting about them.

Boom— Boom— Boom—

The magnificent sound of drums began to ring loudly. Then......

A huge cloud of black mass covered the sky as it scattered down on the ground. The falling black mass slowly turned into hundreds of creatures. It was none other than the hellhounds.

“Kiheeeeeek!”

“Kyaaaaahaaaack?!”

“Graaaaaaaack!”

Hundreds of hellhounds suddenly appeared! And there were even three beings in front!

And at that very moment......

Vwooooooooooo—

The hellhounds started to run as soon as the horn blared loudly.

Caillan and Ares, who were standing in front of their troops, saw hundreds of fierce animals rushing towards them.

Meanwhile, the members of Legend Guild were also watching the broadcast as they climbed the highest point of their newly acquired Philip Village.

Not long after, Ascar mumbled......

“If Allentian is breached......”

She turned her head to look at Genie. Genie’s face stiffened as she raised her head.

“Our Legend Guild will be smashed......”
