A goat-headed, human-bodied demon blocked Gavin's sword thrust with his bare hands.
Blood dripped.
"Are you alright, Lady Alyna?"
Seeing the familiar figure, a relieved smile crossed the duchess's face.
"Aries... you late fool..."
Not long after, a demon hovered above the sky, in his hand was a large axe ready to cut down Gavin.
Bam!
In less than a split second, Gavin managed to dodge the deadly attack.
"Oh, the helps are coming," Gavin muttered.
The two demons in different forms were protecting Alyna, who was badly injured. The demon called Aries handed her a bottle. Without thinking twice, the red-haired woman quickly downed it.
Gulp. Gulp. Gulp.
"Ah, I hate elixr."
Instantly, all the cuts and bruises on Alyna's body disappeared. Energy filled the woman again.
"It's a good thing we came, Lady Alyna. Otherwise, you might have died." A demon in human form quipped at her.
Alyna wiped her wet mouth. "Shut up, Amon. This is your fault. How could you be separated from me."
"Huh?" Amon furrowed his brows. "Didn't I hear you wrong? The two of us stayed together. Suddenly you just disappeared." He clicked his tongue repeatedly.
"I don't think this is the time to fight," Aries said. "We're in bad situasion."
The situation changed. The group of black-robed men who had been watching now began to stand next to Gavin.
They did not remain silent when they saw their boss being ganged up on by three people.
"Well, looks like the duel is over," Gavin said.
Hearing the sarcasm, Amon sighed in annoyance. He disliked demons who were arrogant the most.
"Then what? You want a team match? Three against Thirteen? I think it'll be a balance fight. You guys are just weak demons," Amon quipped back.
One of the black-robed men quickly drew a dagger and was ready to jump at them, but Gavin stopped him first.
Amon chuckled as the demon on the other side was provoked.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"No need to rush. Don't be easily provoked by his words. Don't let the enemy's words control you." Gavin said soothingly to his men.
Only then did the black-robed demon calm down. While the other demons didn't seem to be happy listening to Amon's provocation either, they held back.
Alyna stepped forward. After recovering her body, she looked more confident. It was as if she could defeat all the enemies in front of her alone.
Bam!
The duchess smashed her weapon to the floor.
"Can we have a rematch? I ran out of mana fighting those damn ants earlier. But now, all of you coming on me is no problem."
Amon, who heard it, chuckled.
"Huft... you two are the same," Aries muttered.
Again, the black-robed demons seemed provoked. Only Gavin was completely unaffected. He looked as calm as lake water, no sign of a twitch on his face at all.
The duke looked at Alyna. Then, his lips curved up. "Why not? Let's have a rematch."
Aries and Amon squinted their eyes.
"To be fair, I'll only take two of my men with me to fight against you guys. The rest will just watch," Gavin added.
Aries, the wisest and most level-headed demon in Alyna's group spoke up. "Won't they interfere when you guys lose? Can you keep your word?"
Gavin opened his eyes wide, then chuckled. "Of course I'll keep my word. They won't attack no matter what. After all, it wasn't my men who interfered in the fight before."
Simultaneously, Alyna and Amon hissed.
Clang!
The red-haired woman swung her scythe at the floor. "Don't act honorable, Lord Gavin. You attacked a defenseless person without a second thought, you hypocrite." she said softly, but anyone who heard it could feel the fury from her.
The duke's lips seemed to widen.
"You challenged me first, did you forget?"
Alyna hissed. "Let's just stop this carp. Bring it on."
The duke's mouth seemed to move, but no sound came out.
Removing the black robes, two demons stepped forward. The first demon was a woman with fair skin and pink hair. She seemed to be wearing clothes that matched her hair. In her hand, she held a staff with a star on the end.
The other was a demon in the form of a lion, but had a human posture. He had blue fur and dense hair. At first glance his appearance was not much different from the werelion. He carried no weapons, only a large shield that was almost the size of his body.
They both stood by Duke Gavin's side.
Seeing that the other side was ready for battle, Alyna and her two men were also ready to fight.
Alyna drew her scythe. Amon held his axe tightly. And Aries seemed to be in a stance, with no artifact weapon at all.

"Hoho... this is getting interesting."
Isaac peered at the duke's feud through a small hole. Thanks to the, 'mortal ring' and the distant position, they did not detect his presence.
"This battle, did it also happen before? Or is this the butterfly effect?"
Isaac didn't have much information with the events in the Ant Kingdom. In his previous life, he was busy searching for drake eggs in the mountains. There was never any information or rumors circulating about Duke Alyna and Gavin's feud.
In other words, he really didn't know anything other than Baby Qilin's information.
"I don't think this is important right now. I have to make sure they are still alive. No one should die before the third year."
The changes in the future made Isaac feel anxious. It was possible that Duke Alyna or Gavin Bael could die from this battle.
Actually, it didn't matter to Isaac if Gavin died. In fact, he was happy if his true enemy died. But if looked at the current situation, it is likely that Alyna would die.
Given how Gavin betrayed him, it is possible that the demon will keep his promise. Isaac saw Gavin as an opportunist. If there was an opportunity in sight, he wouldn't miss it.
"I still need Alyna, she can't die early."
Peeking out from behind the small hole, he saw Alyna dart towards Gavin, signaling the start of the fight.
Isaac quickly stopped peeking.
"It's time to hurry up. Let's utilize the available resources to stop this stupid battle."
The white-haired demon left the small hole where he had been peering. He walked down the long, dark hallway, back to the place where he had found baby Qilin.

"Kuaaaaarrrrrrggggh!"
Queen Antfolk was hysterical. She grabbed her own hair as she could not contain the flood of emotions in her chest.
"No! No! No!"
She watched as dozens of male antfolk lay in the thrones' chamber in a lifeless condition. They all died in horrible conditions.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSeeing the madness of their queen, the antfolk warriors could only look down.
After sending Yandez and Kaies to chase Alyna, the Queen along with several Queensguard returned to the throne's chamber. Of course, she was furious.
However, what made her furious was not just that.
The baby qilin, her most precious treasure had gone. She went even crazier after finding Yandez dead and the whole egg burnt down.
This was enough to drive the Queen mad.
"Kaies! Gather all available soldiers. If necessary send the ants to work to prepare for battle. I don't care... gather them all. Let's kill that intruder!"
Hearing such an overbearing order, Kaies was shocked. The worker antfolk had no combat experience. Sending them into battle was tantamount to sending them to die. However, with the Queen's unstable mental state, he was forced to carry out the order.
Besides, Kaies had a moral burden after Yandez's death. He felt that all of this was his fault.
"Yes, Queen."
The Queensguar chief quickly left the throne's chamber.
At the same time, a white-haired man appeared before them all. Instantly, everyone in the room was shocked, and the Queen was no exception.
The man looked injured. His body was covered in blood and bruises. He limped over to the Queen.
Of course the ruler of the antfolks recognized that figure. She wanted to be angry, but with such a condition, it was difficult for her to make a decision. Nevertheless, she still had her suspicions about him.
The antfolk warriors in the room quickly came to surround him.
"Stranger? Are you involved in all this?"
The queen looked at him with a sardonic gaze.
"They came... they killed the antofolk..." Isaac said. He collapsed to the floor, but the antfolk were still at point their spear toward him.
This time, the Queen did not show pity or interest like before.
"So what?" she replied in a cold tone.
Isaac opened his coat pocket, and a baby qilin with fire breath came out.
"Kyu-kyu!"
Suddenly the Queen was shocked. With tears in her eyes, she ran over to it.
"Baby, are you alright?"
"Kyu-kyu!"
The Queen looked at Isaac, the cynical gaze gone, replaced by compassion.
"What are you doing? Stop pointing your weapons! All of you disperse!"
Staring at each other, the antfolk warriors had astonished looks on their faces. Finally, they quickly carried out the orders given.
Meanwhile, Isaac hid a wide grin on his face.
