Malaka and Agis could be said to be lucky. That's because Rean and Roan used their influence in the Demon Beast Alliance to look for everyone in their group. Sure enough, except for Frandin and Xiria, who were Zasfins, the rest of the members in their group were all on the demon beasts' side. That meant Calina and Qia were on their side as well.

At the moment, those two girls, who haven't seen each other in a long time, were making their way to the battlefield where Roan was in charge. Calina could be said to have the highest cultivation in the group after Rean and Roan, being in the Peak Stage of the Core and Soul Fusion Realm. After all, she was ahead of everyone when they first separated.

​​

However, not only did Rean and Roan have Celis's help, but they also spent a long time in the Soul Rulers' headquarters. That's why they flew by Calina's cultivation even though their Spiritual Energy Pools were much larger.

As for Qia, she was at the Late Stage of the Core and Soul Fusion Realm, just like Malaka and Agis. Then again, she was still very happy with her progress.

Qia was the first one to arrive at the place where Roan's army was located. Coincidentally, it was at the moment when Roan was commanding millions of demon beasts to attack the opposing side's defenses in the two countries of Hagark and Pofel.

"Who goes there?"

Naturally, she was caught by the Spiritual Senses of the demon beasts protecting the place. But since she was human, they didn't do anything. It's just that the place where Roan was located had to be guarded 100% of the time since his cultivation was too low.

"Sorry, I'm here to see Roan. He requested my presence from the Collen Army." That was the demon beast army Qia was a part of before Roan found her. Collen was obviously the name of the demon beast in charge there.

Not too long after, one of the Stage Seven Demon Beasts came out to receive Qia, saying, "He confirmed your identity. Come with me." Right after, he enveloped Qia in his Spiritual Energy before dragging her over. Qia couldn't do anything since the difference in cultivation between them was ridiculously high.

Well, there was no problem since she arrived a few minutes later. There, she immediately noticed Roan in the middle of a lot of demon beasts. It's just that Roan looked tiny and weak. Well, that was true since the demon beasts there were at least Stage Seven. Beside Roan, there was even one of the Divine Demon Beasts, the only one that hasn't appeared until now, Frin, the Silver Fenrir.

Because of Roan's success in attacking, he had already conquered two important defensive points with minimal losses. That being said, the commander of 10% of the demon beast armies quickly caught the attention of the Zasfins. Frin was then sent here to protect him since Roan would instantly die if a Transition Realm Zasfin suddenly appeared.

"Send 13,000 demon beasts to the Jaftio Canyon. They have to pass through it in the next three hours, or we'll lose the initiative in that region. Make it so that at least five thousand of them are Stage Four Demon Beasts."

One of the Stage Seven Demon Beasts immediately nodded and disappeared after that. Together with that demon beast, many Stage Six and Five Demon Beasts followed.

Following that, Roan continued, "We need at least a hundred thousand beasts in the Colost Mountain Range. If I'm not wrong, the Zasfins will try to use the mountains to hide their presence while sneaking behind our Demon Beast Army in the Yula Path. They must hold the Zasfins there until at least noon. Also..."

Once again, another demon beast at Stage Seven disappeared with many lower-level ones as soon as Roan finished his words. It was impressive how much the demon beasts came to trust Roan after such a short time.

Roan then passed a few more orders as some demon beasts left. In the end, only Frin and two Stage Eight Demon Beasts remained there. With that, Frin looked at Roan and asked, "Are you sure this will work? If the Colost Mountain Range is truly a place where the Zasfins will try to pass, they'll probably bring a lot more members than just one hundred thousand."

Roan nodded as he replied, "I know, that's why I asked that at least one-third of those hundred thousand beasts should be composed of Earth-type demon beasts. The idea is to stall for time, and they can do that by utilizing the terrain to their advantage. As long as we hold them until noon, our army in Yula Path can break through the defense line. Once that's done, the Colost Mountain Range Army will be of no use."

Frin didn't say anything else after Roan finished his words. He had proved time and time again that his methods worked. Above all, he made them work while he had a huge amount of low-level demon beasts that could only receive simple commands. Either they attacked, or they retreated. They couldn't do much more than that. Formations? Strategy? Such a thing didn't exist for demon beasts at Stage Four and below.

Suddenly, Frin's expression changed as he looked in a certain direction. Roan, too, did the same. "Another one, huh?"

Right after, two of the three Stage Eight Demon Beasts disappeared. Sure enough, the sound of a heated battle had begun in the distance. Roan had been targeted for a long time now, and the demon beasts got quite used to that. Roan hastily ignored that and looked at the maps in front of him. The Stage Eight and Elemental Transformation level battle to his side didn't even bother him.

Eventually, his eyes shift a bit as he noticed a certain girl's presence at the back. He looked behind and obviously saw Qia standing there. "So you're here, huh? That's good. Here, take it." Roan then threw a jade slip to Qia.

"What is it?" Qia was confused as she looked at the content. Though, after she read it, her eyes widened as she muttered, "This..."

Roan faintly smiled in response, saying, "Go there and help Rean. It's one of the main points of my strategy, so make sure he completes it."
