Storing the devil core of Lady Devil Erving, Field Marshal then looked at the other three devils.
The talkative spiked humanoid frog devil had gone quiet and the creepy perverted gaze he looked at Field Marshal had now turned into one with fear. His knee-long dangling tongue was no longer covered in slimy saliva that dripped on the ground instead it had dried up and shriveled, and now it nearly reached his chest.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSeeing this, Field Marshal's face was filled with disgust and she immediately decided on him as her next target for elimination.
Feeling the gaze of the Field Marshal on him the spiked humanoid frog devil, chill in his spikes. Right then, he knew that he was the next target of the scary human.
So, the spiked humanoid frog devil locked eyes with the other two devils signaling them to enact their plan faster because if the scary human kept taking one of them down every turn she got then the chances of even one of them leaving his place alive would decrease.
"Hey, little girl, cancel your summon. So we can leave because facing that human will only lead to our death," A bug-eyed devil with a dung beetle unicorn and exo-shell ordered Ada to cancel her summon so that they can escape from the death battle with the Field Marshal.
If the three devils went all out together they might be able to kill the human card apprentice. However, the prowess displayed by the card apprentice so far indicated that she would not go down without a fight, and in doing so she would take about half of them down with her.
Devils came from the demon species that liked to revere the strong and bully the weak, and they loved their life the most even more than their wealth. It was true for the devils too. Therefore, they would rather escape than come together to kill the human since one or two of them may die in the process.
Death in the dark realm was not temporary like dying in the other realms, it was real and permanent here. Therefore, the devils did not dare to be reckless and chose to escape rather than face Field Marshal head-on together.
Listening to the bug-eyed devil's words both Ada who was pinning her hopes on the three devils' victory and Field Marshal who was preparing to defend against the attack of their team of three were shocked and dumbfounded.
"Your Highness, what are you saying? That old hag with saggy tits just used a trick and was lucky enough to land a sneak attack. Please do not overestimate her strength. She is no match for you three together. If she were that capable she would have taken the initiative to attack you guys and not wait," Ada tried her best to downplay the strength of the Field Marshal claiming that she used a trick to land a lucky sneak attack.
"..." being called an old hag with saggy tits by Ada Field Marshal Heatsend raises her eyebrows but does not attack Ada for describing her with such derogatory words. Because she has seen right through Ada's plan.
The Field Marshal knew that Ada did not have the guts to call her names to her face, yet Ada did so because she was purposefully provoking her. As she wanted the Field Marshal to attack her.
If Field Marshal attacks Ada then the three devils would have to step in to protect her which would mean them confronting Field Marshal Heatsend.
Why would the three devils that did not bat an eye when their comrade lost her devil core and turned into a waste go out of their way to save Ada, whom they considered nothing more than a mere slave?
That was because of the contract between the summoner and the summons. The three devils valved the contrast between them and Ada because she used their true names when summoning them. This was why the devils felt that the hand guiding Ada was conspiring against them.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmUsually, the devils and demons summoned through sacrificial rituals would not bother about their summoners. However, currently, the circumstances were different.
How was it different? It was not because of the modified summoning ritual used by Ada to summon them but Ada's demand for summoning them.
When summoning the four of them Ada demanded them to kill Field Marshal Heatsend going against the orders of Arnas who only asked Ada to use the summoned devils to distract the Field Marshal.
However, how could Ada give up on such a chance to hurt Anna? She followed her mind and heart which craved vengeance and demanded the devils to kill the Field Marshal in return for inviting them to her world.
Usually, the devils and demons would use a trick to satisfy the demand of their summoner and remain in the world of their summoner to wreak havoc on that world. However, the devils summoned by Ada could not complete her demand as they were trying to escape it.
The cancellation of the summoning can only happen when all the parties involved in the summoning agree. So as long as Ada agreed to cancel her demand the devils can return to their respective hells.
The reason for this condition to cancel the summoning in the summoning sacrificial ritual was purely made for the demons and devils to take advantage of their summoners.
When summoned devils and demons resort to their trick of destroying the world they were summoned to the summoner regrets summoning the devil/demon and tries to cancel the summoning however with this condition they can't cancel the summoning without satisfying the devil/demon that they summoned.
Now this condition of canceling the summoning had become the bane for the devils summoned by Ada. And if Ada dies before she cancels the summons the only way left for them to return would be to complete her demand.
This was why Ada was sure that the three Devils would not hesitate to fight the Field Marshal to protect her. Hence hence she did not hesitate to provoke Field Marshal unfortunately for her the Field Marshal did not fall for her provocation.
