After these days of cultivation, Shuna's own Magicules had barely reached the A+ level, but it was incomparable to Adalman's massive amount of one million.
However, her magic power was extraordinary, far exceeding Adalman's.
Through her unique skill, 'Analyst', she quickly analyzed the structure of 'Spirit Particle Collapse', using her own powerful magic power to disrupt and reassemble it into her own formation.
Adalman's terrifying ultimate move became Shuna's stepping stone, ultimately helping her complete this magic.
"Splendid, Lady Shuna."
Demiurge's face was full of wonder.
As expected of one of the harem members chosen by Lord Draco, she is indeed extraordinary.
"Not at all, Lord Demiurge, you overpraise me."
Shuna smiled and said, "Time waits for no one. Let's hurry and capture Clayman's castle."
Hearing this, Demiurge immediately withdrew his thoughts and prepared to command the army to continue their advance.
"Chotto matte!"
At that moment, Adalman, who had already fallen, floated up from the ground and called out to everyone.
"You're actually not dead yet? Do you want me to deliver the final blow?"
With that, Souei drew his sword, preparing to strike Adalman.
Shuna stopped him, shaking her head to indicate it wasn't necessary. "He doesn't seem to have the desire to fight."
At this time, Adalman's pure white clerical robes were slightly damaged. Compared to before, he now looked more like a wraith.
For some reason, the Death Dragon and the Rotten Corpse Swordsman had not been purified, and Adalman's companions, the undead warriors of the expeditionary force, had also been resurrected.
"Lady Shuna!"
Adalman led the group in slowly kneeling down.
"Eh? Lady?"
Shuna covered her cherry-pink mouth with her long sleeve, looking somewhat surprised.
"Thanks to Lady Shuna's magic, we have been liberated from this land."
"Not being purified and luckily surviving is also a form of destiny."
"I implore you to listen to our wish."
Adalman lowered his head deeply.
"Um, what is your wish?"
Looking at the skeletons prostrating before her, Shuna could only ask meekly.
"I want to meet the deity that Lady Shuna believes in. I have lost my heart of faith, and my strength is far from what it used to be."
"Our faith in Goddess Luminas has collapsed."
"Therefore, we wish to find a new deity."
"We hope to use the power of the deity you believe in to rebuild our power of faith."
Adalman said sincerely.
"This..."
Shuna was a bit conflicted, as Draco's handsome and elegant face appeared in her mind.
This shouldn't really count as faith; it could only be considered... love.
"Oh~ you have quite the eye."
Before Shuna could say anything, Demiurge suddenly approached Adalman, speaking with great interest.
"To be able to see Lord Draco's extraordinariness, you are quite good."
Demiurge's eyes were full of appreciation; this skeleton had a bright future.
"Oh! So the deity's name is Lord Draco!"
Adalman said excitedly, "What a great name, worthy of being the new god of our faith!"
"Heh, hehe..."
Shuna could only respond to these words with a polite smile.
"Although we are fragile undead, we can still offer a bit of our meager strength. Please, you must introduce us to Lord Draco."
Adalman's resolute stance made it impossible for Shuna to refuse.
After all, the other party had already put it that way.
Moreover... "No problem. Once you see our Supreme One, you will understand how majestic Lord Draco is..."
Demiurge interjected first.
Seeing this, Shuna had no choice but to agree. "Alright then."
"Oh, thank you, thank you so much."
The ghostly blue flames in Adalman's two eye sockets were so excited at this moment that they directly turned into pink flames, which looked quite comical.
"However..."
Shuna's tone shifted, "Before that, we still have some things to do."
Everyone's gaze turned toward the distant castle.
"I see. Then let me lead the way; I'm familiar with this place."
Adalman stood up—or rather, he floated up, drifting to the front of the group like a ghost.
"Everyone, please follow me, this way please."
Like a greeter, Adalman made a gesture of invitation to everyone.
After glancing at each other, they all followed Adalman's lead... Jura Tempest Federation battlefield.
The Yōki plus the demons numbered three hundred, which happened to counter the three hundred A+ rank Holy Knights of the Holy Knight Order.
Although their ranks were the same, in terms of combat experience, these demons who had lived for countless ages definitely surpassed most of the people on the scene.
Facing such a force, the Holy Knight Order was being suppressed heavily; some Holy Knights had even fallen, and the overall rhythm had fallen into a stalemate.
But even so, these Holy Knights showed no fear, still charging valiantly at the front lines, desperately resisting the demons' assault.
In addition, the remaining Temple Knights were also being beaten into a steady retreat.
With their general strength being only B-rank, how could they be a match for those A-rank and A+ rank monsters.
Although the number of Temple Knights was three times that of the others, quantity could not achieve a qualitative change.
Not to mention, there were terrifying leaders like the Three Beastmen, Shion, and Geld.
The Ten Great Saints, the only ones capable of contending with them, had all come to Hinata's side now, completely ignoring the situation on the battlefield.
At this moment, they had an even more powerful enemy.
The Seven Luminaries Teachers.
Vice-Captain Renard looked at the three Seven Luminaries who had risen from the ground, his eyes full of solemnity.
He questioned, "Why are the Seven Luminaries appearing here!"
The leading Seven Luminaries coldly scanned the surroundings a few times before saying indifferently, "Our task is only to capture the traitor Hinata; the life or death of others has nothing to do with us."
Renard shouted angrily, "How could Lady Hinata be a traitor? Seven Luminaries Teachers, there must be some mistake!"
The Seven Luminaries' voice suddenly turned cold, their tone icy as they said, "Are you questioning us?"
Renard was stunned, then snorted coldly, "I call you teachers only out of respect; don't be ungrateful."
"Sky" Arnaud, "Earth" Bacchus, "Water" Litith, and "Wind" Fritz—the four Saints under the Holy Knight Order—all went on alert upon seeing this.
The one they believed in was Lady Hinata; they held the Seven Luminaries in complete contempt.
As for "Fire" Gerudo, they found it strange that at a time like this, where on earth had that guy gone.
Sarei, Gregory, and Glenda, the "Three Martial Immortals" of the Holy Emperor's Imperial Guard, were currently watching the show from the sidelines.
As the former Captain of the Holy Knights, Sarei was already dissatisfied with Hinata for taking his position. Now seeing her being framed, he was naturally happy to sit back and watch the tigers fight.
However, as the battle became increasingly disadvantageous, Sarei and Gregory hadn't expected the opponent to be this powerful, so they stopped watching and hurried to save the situation.
