The Bandit King didn’t say anything to the remark and showed his anger with his actions. He took out another weapon from his ring while Dmitri and Leo got ready to fight him. As he did that, his army was being razed to the ground by the small force that Leo brought with him. 

Once Leo told the two generals to go to help the third one, they set out to find him immediately. By the time they got to the other end of the two-mile line, they realized that he didn’t need any help.

Just as they arrived, the general took down the 7th Circle Aura Knight belonging to the Heart Alliance. The general was pinned to the ground with his own sword wrenched into his chest. Once his aura and blood were stripped from him, his lifeless body was left lying on the ground.

The third general of the Blood God’s army had more than 50 people with him to help him take down the other 7th Circle Aura Knight, so he was done fairly quickly. Once that was over, their work was cut out for them. There were no longer any 7th Circle Aura Knights or stronger left apart from the Bandit King.

As for him, he was being taken care of by their commander and the Blood God, so they didn’t have to worry about him. They only needed to care about bringing the army to the army waiting for it.

So they set back to the back of the army. Once they left, the soldiers in the front immediately started running in the only direction available to them. Their minds were filled with panic and dread about what was about to happen to them. 

They had all heard horror stories about the Blood God on the battlefield, but this was worse than that. Even though they were one of the strongest powers on the continent, they were helpless lambs for slaughter.

Even if they wanted to, they couldn’t harm the 6th Circle Aura Knights. They would be toyed with. So they chose to flee toward the Blood God’s camp and try to run away once they exited the ravine. 

The generals and the team got to the back of the army which seemed to be slowly drifting away from the battle between Leo and the Blood God. There was a huge distance that was covered in corpses that seemed to create a sense of safety for them.

That was why they weren’t running away as fast. However, this changed once the elites of the Blood God army got to them. The many 6th Circle Aura Knights in the army noticed them and immediately rose to the top of the ravine to fight them in the air. If the fight came to the ground, it would only end in meaningless deaths on their side.

However, they couldn’t even hold a candle to the might of the Blood God’s soldiers. The 7th Circle Aura Knights wiped out the first dozen Heart Alliance generals that headed their way in a matter of seconds.

After watching their colleagues’ bodies being severed before they could even react, the rest of the 6th Circle Aura Knights reconsidered their options. They realized that the best option was to no longer fight them and flee instead.

There wasn’t any hope of winning the battle anyway. The one chance they had of killing them would be to sacrifice their 140000-strong army to whittle away their energy. But that was not feasible since none of the soldiers would stay to fight those monsters.

The remaining 100 generals all flew to the top of the ravine, hoping to fly to the top and climb out of the ravine. However, the Blood God Army seemed to have predicted this and quickly chased them to stop them from running.

No one seemed to care about the chaos that they created on the ground. With them gone, the order that the army used to have was all gone and a stampede ensued. Everyone who could fly lifted themselves up into the air and flew in the direction of the exit without bothering to care about who was in front of them.

The rest ran forward, pushing the people in the way. Many people fell down and this created a tumble effect which pulled thousands of soldiers to the ground. No one paid any mind to these fallen soldiers and ran over them, killing them in the hundreds.

As this was happening, Leo and Dmitri were battling with the Bandit King. Every single weapon that he brought out from his ring was seemingly useless against the combination of the two.

It started off with the sword he had. It was the Holy Bloom Sword of the Bloom Kingdom that was made two hundred years ago by a master craftsman. It was supposed to be able to make any attack it touched magically transform into petals.

However, the attacks that were sent his way were so fast that he simply couldn’t match their speed. He seemed to be able to block all of Leo’s attacks, but Dmitri always got to him.

When that didn’t work, he switched to the Kali Fan, a powerful weapon that could blow both of them away. However, they set up a barrier around themselves that both of them gave aura to, making it too powerful to be blown away by the weapon.

After a few more unsuccessful weapons, he realized that it wasn’t working as he hoped it would. The weapons pushed the two into a defensive but failed to do any damage to them. They were able to successfully fend off every attack.

“Are you ready to kill yourself? No 8th Circle Aura Knight can possibly control the Great Lightning Eruption Bead,” he said to the Bandit King.

“I was ready to die the minute I realized who I was facing. If I can bring you down, then I will be happy with that. I will be the one who brought down the great Blood God, even if it means killing myself,” he said.

The Great Lightning Eruption Bead was definitely a treasure that would result in a huge explosion. As Leo realized this, his control over his body was gone again. He sighed inward as the body moved on its own to counter what his enemy was doing. As the Bandit King was activating the orb in his hand, both he and Dmitri were taking countermeasures in their own way.

Dmitri launched himself toward the orb to try and stop its activation. He attacked with his sword and slashed at the orb. However, his attack was dodged easily and he was kicked away. Because he was so focused on the orb itself, he couldn’t dodge the attack coming his way.

“You cannot stop this, Death Bringer. I will prevai-“
