Just like that, the worldwide battle started in the entire Prasinos.
No longer was it against the Vanderford Empire and the Corrupted Main temple but it was already against Spectre and Lord Raven, the root of all evil in Prasinos!
The leaders of all dominions and kingdoms, little or small, had all picked up their swords and wore their armor so that they could defend their respective cities and territories.
Battle cries roared in every place and the skies flickered with countless mysterious flashes of light as the war ensued.
Back to the holy island, the army of the United Alliance did not panic. For they know that it was useless for them to worry about other things when they were already facing the mightiest enemy of all.
"Men, do not think of anything but subdue the armies. Let us, your leaders, face the abominable enemy later on." Grandmaster Reuben stepped forward and commanded the armies.
All of those who led the platoon nodded. Lord Raven was not their opponent at this moment. Since this is a battle of life and death, they will ensure that their lives will not perish in vain.
They vowed that before they died, they would defeat at least one soldier from the enemy side! They will not be foolish to take on an opponent too strong that they would die without even knowing why!
Pope Ramir was now able to stand, and his eyes were looking furiously at High Priest Enoch.
"You! Why do you appear to ruin my plans and block my way?! Enoch!" He shouted in seething anger as he glared at High Priest Enoch.
"You are just a mere High Priest! What makes you think that you could stand before me and spark rebellion?!" He continued.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHigh Priest Croix was greatly angered by the Pope's words against High Priest Enoch. Not many know but High Priest Enoch was one of the candidates for the Pope position but he politely declined and chose to stay in the Seirende Temple.
He was about to retort when High Priest Enoch lifted his hand and looked at him gently, signaling that he would be the one to answer.
"The moment you choose to side with evil, you have long lost your authority. No one in the temple is obligated to follow you, nor obey your words. For you have become the one we see as the enemy!" High Priest Enoch looked at the Pope without any emotions.
To him there was no hatred nor regret towards the Pope, he only sees him as someone the temple should apprehend.
"Hahaha!" Suddenly there was a loud mocking chuckle that rang in the entire battlefield.
Lord Raven watched the exchange between the two and found it amusing. "What nice words to say!"
"Ramir, you want to take on this old man?" He asked Pope Ramir as if he did not see the others as a threat.
Pope Ramir's eyes flickered, but soon his expression hardened as he answered, "Yes, My Lord. This servant wants to apprehend those who resist your authority!"
Lord Raven examined Pope Ramir's expression and smiled sinisterly, "Very well… Redeem yourself. You have already failed me several times."
While he was saying this, Lord Raven's gaze moved to the body of Emperor Razak.
Pope Ramir's body stiffened, completely understanding the meaning behind Lord Raven's words. There was a deep sense of fear in his eyes but it turned into motivation as he looked at High Priest Enoch like he was his prey to slaughter.
"I will not fail you this time, My Lord." Pope Ramir replied.
Lord Raven did not speak any word after that.
Instead, he waved his hand and a call of purple light flew toward Pope Ramir, Emperor Razak, Rachana, and the rest of the injured officers and soldiers.
"Something's happening!" Leon and the rest prepared their battle stances as the mysterious orb flew toward the members of the enemy.
They have a bad feeling about this!
True enough, as soon as these lights reached the enemy's bodies, significant changes happened!
The entire army roared like trapped beasts, even Emperor Razak, who was supposed to be dead, had his body floating mid-air as the purple veins appeared on his body.
"Whatever it is, do everything to disrupt the enemies!" Grandmasters Andi and Reuben immediately ordered and tried to kill off the nearest enemies around him.
However, when they moved forward, they felt a huge wave of force stopping them from advancing forward, and even threw them backward several meters away.
"Be polite… I am not yet finished with my work." Lord Raven looked at them with furrowed brows, then turned his head again to watch his 'work' before him and everyone's eyes.
"Aaaack!!!" The bodies of the armies from the Spectre side all transferred into something that is no longer fitting to be called human.
Their skin turned dark purple, and their teeth grew longer into fangs. Their nails grew as sharp as steel and their eyes were red.
The injuries they sustained were nowhere to be found and their features vary.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThose who were high ranked, like Rachana, Emperor Razak, and the Pope along with their lieutenants have a pair of dark wings and several snake-like tails, just like the Crown Prince's transformation back then.
The ordinary soldiers have tails that seemed to work like snakes as well, but they only had one.
The most eye-catching feature however was the raven mark on their foreheads. It was like a tattoo, however, the raven mark seemed to be eerily moving, looking at their opponents with its eyes.
After their transformation, the new army looked at Grandmaster Reuben and the rest with sinister smiles and blazing eyes.
It could be felt from their respective positions that their strength also upgraded by leaps and bounds!
"Not good…" The grandmasters and the rest all thought in their minds, but they did not have any intention to run away.
"See… It's not only those puny guardians that could leave their mark on their people. Asa and Ignis, could bless the asanis and Seriende? I could bestow my people with divine powers too!" Lord Raven stood proudly as he was looking at the enemy side with a mocking expression.
"Now, as the first to show your proud faces and attempt to resist me, then I give you the privilege to die with my new army!" Lord Raven spread his hands,
The behemoths and the new army lined up and finally faced their enemy, the United Alliance.
"Go on men…" Lord Raven nonchalantly waved his hands like he was not in the middle of a war.
His blood-red eyes glowed as his two voices appeared again.
He flashed a sinister greedy smile, a smile that was craving for chaos and horror to invade the hearts of the toughest men, and uttered,
"Kill!"
