The demonmander wasn''t a fool.
Just based on the momentum of the battle, he could tell that they were slowly being pushed back by the humans and elves.
At the same time, there were other humans and elves who were attacking them from the side, slowly whittling their forces away.
If they continued like this, it would be a matter of time before they were choked out and taken down.
So he had to find a way out of this blockade.
In the mind of the demonmander, there were two ways to break free of this blockade.
One was to concentrate his forces and hit one of the weak spots of the blockade. Once they broke through, they would be able to run away and then regroup before deciding on what to do.
But this idea was immediately ignored by the demonmander.
After all, no matter how one put it, this was retreating and it would hurt his pride if he did anything like that.
So the demonmander wouldn''t even want to think about this.
That left him with his other choice.
Defeating the enemy leaders and destroying their morale.
Once the enemy''s morale was shattered, it was only a matter of time before they were pushed back by the demons. After all, demons were much more powerful than elves and humans by nature, it was just that they were on the losing end now because they had been ambushed like this.
Once they gathered themselves, there was no chance that they would lose.
But the enemy also knew this which was why they were trying to cut their numbers down as quickly as possible by sending their leaders, their strongest fighters to the frontline.
Since that was the case, the demonmander had made his choice.
When the demonmander came forward, the demons that were in front of him cleared the way for him.
When the demonmander came forward, the humans and elves felt the pressure that he brought on them.
This demonmander was definitely powerful enough to turn the tides in their favour.
Seeing this, Cecilia and Moon immediately came to a decision.
Cecilia looked back at Moon and Moon gave a nod before nocking three arrows into her bow.
She didn''t shoot them right at the demonmander, but rather raised her bow up towards the sky. She aimed them right up into the sky before letting the bowstring go, sending those arrows off.
The demonmander had looked up to follow the arrows, but then he immediately looked down.
"ng!"
There was the sound of swords shing that rang out.
Cecilia had charged forward the moment that Moon had released those arrows, clearing the gap between her and the demonmander in an instant. With all of the demons being distracted by the demonmander suddenlying out, she was able to run past them without any problems.
As she ran this distance, her sword had undergone a full swing at the demonmander.
But the demonmander had easily blocked this swing with his sword.
He looked down at Cecilia and raised his other hand as if he was about to do something, but then he suddenly stopped.
In an instant, the demonmander jumped back without any hesitation.
As the demonmander jumped back, there was an arrow thatnded where he had been standing before.
Cecilia didn''t give the demonmander any room to catch his breath as she quickly chased after him after he jumped backwards.
This time, she lifted her sword above her head and brought it down in arge swing at the demonmander.
Since the demonmander had been focused on escaping the arrow, he wasn''t able to react to thisrge swing quickly.
He could only bring his sword up in a haste to block it, but that caused him to not use as much strength as he would have liked.
In the end, the demonmander was still able to block this downwards strike.
However, there was a different problem.
The reason why Cecilia had chosen a downwards strike this second time was to lock the demonmander in ce.
With the pressureing from above, the demonmander felt it was hard to move.
To break free, he would have to gather his strength to push her back.
He couldn''t help being surprised by the fact that this kind of power was contained in this skinny frame, but there was no time for him to be surprised.
That was because he could feel a sense of danger from above.
It was another arrow that was falling down.
But with Cecilia locking him in ce like this, it wasn''t as if the demonmander could dodge out of the way.
It seemed like the demonmander was in a very bad situation.
However, the demonmander suddenly brought up his other hand that had a ball of ck energy inside of it.
This ball of ck energy quickly gathered before releasing a bright glow that blinded Cecilia. However, Cecilia''s sharp senses told her exactly where this ball of dark energy wasing from, so she quickly released the hold that she had on the demonmander.
She pulled her sword back and then jumped back, dodging out of the way.
After being released from Cecilia''s hold, the demonmander also jumped back out of the way.
If he had been a secondter, then he might have been skewered by the arrow that fell.
There was an arrow thatnded right where he had been standing before.
But once again, it wasn''t over yet.
There was one more arrow that had been shot.
This time, it was the arrow that fell first before Cecilia charged out at the demonmander.
The demonmander raised his sword to sh out at the arrow, deflecting it away before continuing that swing to meet Cecilia who was charging at him.
Since he had already started the swing, there was more power in this swing than his previous swings.
This one sent Cecilia flying back with the power that it contained, sending her in the center of the demons.
When shended, Cecilia found herself surrounded by demons.
