<h4>Chapter 719 - The Hidden Army Appears</h4>


    "Charge!"


    """OHHHH!!!"""


    The sudden appearance of the human army surprised the still confused beastmen. Before they could understand what was happening, the human soldiers charged inside the camp.


    The beastkin soldiers immediately fell into chaos. Some of them tried to resist, but their disorganized resistance could notpare to the human soldiers'' well-organized attack.


    In seconds, the human soldiers cut, pierced, and trampled the beastmen. Hundreds of them died in the first minute.


    Louise, Marana, and Akh led the attack, with Nana and rice supporting them. Their fifteenthyer mana made them killing machines. They killed hundreds of human soldiers in seconds. Meanwhile, Aunt Dayana, Iris, ra, and my other womenmanded and supported the soldiers from the rearguard.


    "Stop!" A thirteenthyer beastmen tried to stop them, but he was cut into two by Marana''s sword belt before he could offer any resistance. She then headed towards a fourteenthyer powerhouse that had just woken up, decapitating him.


    No beastmen could resist the advance of the human army. Even when some powerhouses tried to organize the soldiers, they would be jointly attacked by Louise, Akh, Marana, and my other girls, killing them before they could organize any form of resistance.


    Under the fierce attack of the empire''s army, the beastmen were felled like wheat. In less than three minutes, the number of beastkin killed surpassed the thousands.


    Just then, a cry of rage came from the sky.


    "Humans! You dare!?"


    A beastkin Irregrunched an attack towards the human army, but his attack did not manage to reach the ground.


    "God said, [Nobody Shall be Harmed]!"


    Following Saintess Safelia''s words, a barrier appeared above the soldiers, stopping the attack. She then extended her hand towards the Irregr and spoke again.


    "God said, [Sinners Must be Judged]!"


    An enormous feeling of danger assaulted the beastmen. Before he could react, the space around him contracted, copsing inwards.


    "H-Help!" He managed to shout, but it was toote.


    In the next instant, his body was crushed to a paste.


    "Yode! Bastard! I''ll kill you!" Another Irregr growled in rage and charged towards Safelia, but then, a voice came from the middle of the camp.


    "Stop. Don''t fall for their provocation. You are not their match one-to-one."


    Emilia''s ice-cold order immediately cooled down the rage of the Irregr. At the same time, the other Irregrs calmed down as well.


    "Follow the training. Selena, take charge."


    "Yes, your majesty."


    The wolfkin girl nodded calmly and waved her hand.


    "For the Alliance!"


    """For the Alliance!"""


    Following her cry, mana gushed out of all the Irregrs and rushed towards Selena''s body.


    It was the same technique they used during the previous battle. They nned to focus their mana on Selena and use her to face the girls.


    But suddenly, a tree of lightning appeared in the sky.


    "Oh no!" Selena''s expression changed, but it was toote to avoid it.


    In the next instant–


    "[Lightning Apocalypse]" Daisy spoke.


    And hell descended.


    Golden lightning fell from the sky. It took the shape of a golden dragon as it descended towards the beastkin Irregrs.


    The lightning dragon took just an instant to fall from the sky. It hit the beastkin Irregrs directly, instantly pulverizing three of them.


    "UOHHHHH!!!"


    Selena shouted. Mana surged out of her body, turning into a palm that shed against the lightning dragon.


    But instead of confronting the lightning directly, Selena tried to redirect it to the ground.


    It was a method she thought of after experiencing Daisy''s lightning during the previous battle. This way, she could minimize the damage caused by the lightning.


    But even so, Daisy''s lightning dragon was powerful enough to kill several more beastkin.


    When the lightning dragon finally faded out, a total of nine Irregrs had died.


    That made Selena''s face ashen.


    "Dammit!"


    The battle had just started, but from the original seventy-five Irregrs, only fifty-one remained.


    They had lost twenty-four Irregrs before they could properly counterattack.


    And the situation was even worse on the ground. Right now, the beastkin army was being routed without being able to offer resistance.


    "Your Majesty!" Selena looked in the direction of Emilia''s tent. She wanted to ask her to order the retreat.


    If they continued like this, their losses would be disastrous.


    But Emilia''s ice-cold voice interrupted her before she could voice her concerns.


    "Continue fighting."


    "Your Majesty!"


    "It''s an order."


    Selena bit her lips before nodding. Then, her eyes became determined.


    She stared at the girls being led by Rose with a murderous expression.


    "You will pay for killing my brethren!"


    With a growl, Selena charged towards Rose!


    Mana gathered on her hands, creating a giant w of pure mana that could crush a god easily!


    But to her surprise, Rose stopped it easily with her sword.


    While Selena was still surprised, Doctor Elene waved her hand, casting an area of darkness around her that froze her movements.


    [Lonely Night]!


    "This again!" Selena snarled in annoyance and let out a surge of mana to free herself from Elene''s technique, but to her surprise, the darkness did not disappear so easily this time.


    Furthermore, Rose''s sword wasing towards her apanied by several lightning snakes courtesy of Daisy.


    "Fuck!" Selena pulled out more mana from her body, finally escaping from her restraints. At the same time, she kicked the air and waved her ws, jumping backward as she used her ws to stops the attacks of Rose and Daisy.


    But she had not managed to block Rose and Daisy''s attacks when a wave of fire came from behind her.


    "[Sun Descent]!"


    Burning mesparable to the sun''s surface attacked Selena from behind, making her turn pale.


    It was Lina!


    The little girl had coordinated with Rose and Daisy to attack Selena together.


    Moreover, they were being supported by Dina''s path, [An Emperor''s Way], making their attacks even stronger.


    Selena was not in a very dangerous situation.


    "Captain!" The other beastkin Irregrs tried to help her, but Saintess Safelia''s voice stopped them.


    "God said, [Thou Shall Not Pass]."


    With her words, the space between the beastkin and Selena became several timesrger, making it impossible for them to help her in time.


    "Do you think you can kill me with this!!!???" Selena bellowed. Her mana spiraled around her, turning into a giant wolf that roared to the sky.


    The wolf bit the wave of fire and used its tail to blow away Daisy''s lightning. Its body received Rose''s sword without being damaged, and its ws attacked the girls.


    Even in such a dangerous situation, Selena had managed to resist!


    But unfortunately for her, the girls had be much stronger since thest battle. Just a few hours had passed since then, but for them, it had been five days.


    These five days were enough for them to digest most of the battle and grow stronger.


    Selena, on the other hand, had only half of the Irregrs she had during the previous battle. The amount of mana she could use now was much lesser.


    She had be weaker, but the girls became stronger.


    The result was evident.


    Even when she attacked, her attacks were easily defended by Katherine''s cosmic winds. The girls'' attacks, on the other hand, slowly cornered her.


    Before long–


    "Kuh!"


    A bit of Lina''s fire fell on her right arm.


    The fire was extinguished quickly by her mana, but it had left an injury on her.


    Selena''s eyes burned with anger, but inwardly, she was bing flustered.


    ''I will lose.''


    But just when that thought appeared in her mind.


    [Girls! Another army appeared at the east of the empire! It''s the elves! They are heading towards the capital!]


    "What!? Alice! Is that true!?" Rose and the others eximed in shock.


    At that same instant, a giant magic circle appeared around the beastkin camp.


    An anti-teleportation and istion magic circle.


    The girls'' faces changed.


    They immediately understood Emilia''s intention.


    She nned to trap them here while the other army advanced towards the capital unimpeded.


    And once the capital was conquered, the war would be her victory.
