"fomorians, you fought well!" balor roared and raised his closed fist in triumph.
the fomorians all felt their blood boiling, and they, too, raised their closed fists and roared. "fairies, you've all done well," oberon said with a smile.
"i am very proud of all of you," titania smiled.
the fairies, including the wood fairy queen, couldn't help but feel giddy because their king and queen had praised them.
"ethan, joanne, and the members of the protector clans, you did well," ashmedai said in a teasing tone. "i am gracing you with my presence, so all of you should be honored, right?" joanne and the members of the protector clans truly felt honored. after all, ashmedai was their patron and the pillar that supported them when the entire world had become their enemy.
thus, they were truly happy to have been graced by his presence.
naturally, ethan also felt the same way. however, he didn't show as much devotion as his sister and the members of the protector clans.
"well done, my brothers and sisters of the grove," the elven progenitor, who had also appeared, greeted. "i am very happy that despite secluding yourselves into the forests of the world, the moment this land was in peril, you rose up to fight. i am very proud of all of you."
the elves, who were graceful by nature, performed the gesture of the elves and bowed respectfully towards their ancestor.
"to the mighty and proud dwarven race, may your hearts stay warm and your mead overflowing," the dwarven progenitor said. "i had a great time watching you blow these insects to smithereens. dwarven technology reigns supreme!"
the dwarves raised their weapons and cheered because the words of their progenitor were something that they truly believed in.
leviathan, who had taken a demi-human form, stood on atlantis with his arms crossed over his chest and looked at his comrades with a soft gaze.
it had been a while since he had met them, and it was good to know that they were still alive and well.
he was sure that after they gave some encouragement to their people, they would come to have a chat with him and talk about the current affairs of the world.
leviathan had been away for a very long time, so he needed to catch up on many things. after greeting their people, lady hecate spoke once more.
"the enemies you faced today are one of the races that wish to invade this world," lady hecate stated. "not many people here know about the lands of saraqael. it is the place where the champions of midgard gather in order to protect this world from such invasions.
"simply put, the other progenitors and i, alongside our chosen ones, fight nearly every day in order to protect our world."
lady hecate paused before pointing at the sky, which was starting to repair itself.
"we are your first line of defense. however, there will be occasions when the enemies of midgard will breach the fabric of our world through other ways, just like all of you experienced earlier.
the members of the alliance would give them an honorable burial and compensate the families of those who had died in battle.
despite everyone's efforts, the casualties still numbered in the hundreds because the insect
army was incredibly strong.
those numbers would have been greater if george hadn't protected the healing ward at the rear of the army's formation.
over a hundred insects had tried to take advantage of the chaos and harm those who were already injured in battle.
however, their plans were foiled by the head prefect of dud manor, who was wielding his powerful axe, fulminar.
two hours later, the kings, queens, and the other influential members of the alliance met with the fomorian chieftains and their subordinates.
they once again discussed matters of cooperation, and this time, they were more sincere
about it.
ethan took the weakened lilian to the atlantean ship and locked themselves up inside the
cabin.
the backlash of their legacies had started to make itself known.
their legacies synchronized with each other, so the two of them need to regain their balance
by the simple act of becoming one.
lilian's soft sighs spread inside the room as ethan ate her up.
although she was still feeling sensitive like always, she no longer fainted after doing it once
or twice.
she had gained a stronger resistance to the act, surprising ethan and making their lovemaking more intense and memorable.
three hours later, lilian was filled to the brim and was truly sated.
she lay in her lover's arms, feeling safe and protected by the man she loved the most in the
world.
