My Love Debts Are Everywhere!

One kilometer away...

"This is..."

Heidel was slightly startled as he witnessed an explosion of holy power in the distance, causing the weather to instantly darken with falling snowflakes.

However, his shock only lasted for a few moments before a faint smile formed on his lips as he muttered, "Interesting..."

Next to him, Lilith, Teran, and Garan were equally surprised by the explosion of holy power, instantly becoming alert.

"Is that holy power?" Teran inquired, his tone tinged with wariness.

"Yes, it is," Lilith replied in a nonchalant tone, though vigilance was evident in her beautiful and charming eyes.

As a Demon General who had often fought with the Sword Hero in the past, she was very familiar with holy power.

With just one look and a sense of its energy waves, she could recognize it immediately.

"Holy power? It seems mankind is making some serious preparations," Garan, who had been silent until now, suddenly remarked, his eyes narrowing at the calm human troops.

Lilith remained silent but gave a slight nod, indicating her agreement with Garan's statement.

Meanwhile, this unexpected development caught everyone off guard, prompting both the demon and human troops to become instantly alert and assume battle-ready positions.

As the tension reached its peak, Teran, Lilith, and Garan simultaneously widened their eyes, feeling goosebumps rise on their skin.

Simultaneously turning their heads toward the eastern sky, they saw a speck of blue light hurtling toward them with terrifying speed, as if piercing through space.

Its approach caused the temperature to plummet, and heavy snowflakes began to fall from the sky.

Witnessing this, Lilith and Teran exclaimed in unison, "Danger!"

With a swift motion, Garan dismounted from his horse, ready to take action, but was immediately stopped by Lilith.

"Garan, you shouldn't act. Let me handle this," Lilith declared urgently.

Sensing the imminent threat, she knew that if Garan intervened, he would likely be seriously injured, weakening their Demon Race forces.

Understanding the gravity of the situation, Garan nodded in agreement, saying, "Alright, I'll leave this to you."

Lilith nodded and turned her cold gaze toward the approaching attack.

"A sneak attack? I won't allow it," she whispered icily, extending her right hand to the side.

"Answer my call, Magic Staff of Eternal Frost!"

*Whoosh!*

A black light glowed in Lilith's right hand, slowly transforming into a pitch-black staff adorned with red frost patterns along the shaft.

The magic staff's appearance caused the sand beneath Lilith's horse to freeze into a menacing sheet of black ice.

***

On the other hand, among the human troops, Rain, upon seeing the magic staff's appearance, couldn't help but widen her eyes in disbelief and horror—emotions were rarely displayed on her small face.

"The Magic Staff of Eternal Frost? How could that still exist? Wasn't it supposed to be lost according to historical records?" Rain exclaimed softly, her amazement evident.

As a Great Mage with extensive knowledge, Rain was well-acquainted with various magic staves, including the one wielded by Lilith, known as "The Magic Staff of Eternal Frost."

It ranked among the most powerful magic staves, rivaling even her own, "The Magic Staff of Calamity."

However, when directly compared, her magic staff naturally paled in comparison to the Magic Staff of Eternal Frost, once wielded by the formidable mage of the entire era—Demon Emperor Morgan Crimson!

Morgan Crimson, the second Demon Emperor of the Demon race, stood as the most powerful Demon Emperor in recorded history, the sole individual to ascend to the legendary realm of mages known as "Beyond the World," and was the most respected figure by all mages, whether of the Demon race or humanity.

His achievements and powers transcended common mage knowledge, rendering him a near-invulnerable demigod in the eyes of many.

Although Morgan Crimson was a demon emperor and an enemy of mankind, that didn't prevent Rain from admiring or even worshiping him.

Now, after witnessing someone wielding one of the weapons of the figure she admired, how could she possibly calm down?

***

*Whoosh!*

As the blue light speck drew closer, its mounting pressure caused both sides of the force, whether humanity or the Demon Race, to tremble and shiver slightly.

Observing this, Lilith's expression hardened like ice as she slowly raised the magic staff in her hand.

"High-level Magic: Space Freeze!" Lilith exclaimed in an indifferent tone.

*Buzz!*

Above the Demon troops' sky, an icicle suddenly formed, causing the surrounding space to freeze at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Yet Lilith wasn't finished. She quickly chanted another high-level incantation.

"High-level Magic: Unwavering Ice Golem!"

*Boom!*

Before them, on the sandy expanse, rose a towering Ice Golem, standing a hundred meters tall.

The sight of this ice golem put the troops of mankind on high alert; even Rain's expression turned serious.

"Great Mage—no, Sovereign Mage? This woman is truly formidable," Rain mused to herself, her violet eyes reflecting unwavering determination.

In the hierarchy of mage titles between the human race and the demon race, there was a slight difference—the highest level of mage in humankind was referred to as a Great Mage, while in the demon race, it was called a Sovereign Mage.

Despite this difference arising from the varying energies within the bodies of mages from the two races—mana for humanity and demon power for demons—in essence, there was no significant distinction between the two levels.

As Rain was lost in thought, the Ice Golem suddenly lurched forward, extending its fist into the sky.

*Bang!*

Immediately, a deafening explosion echoed, sending a cold wind sweeping through the entire Demon troop.

"Did it work?" Lilith asked in a hushed and vigilant tone.

*Crack... Bang!*

Abruptly, the sound of cracking and exploding ice filled the air, leaving Lilith with a look of disbelief on her face.

"How is that possible?" Lilith exclaimed incredulously.

The ice golem was one of her most potent defensive spells; even the attacks of the Great Mage of Mankind would struggle to destroy it easily, leaving her utterly baffled.

*Bang!*

However, her shock didn't last long, as her other high-level magic was instantly destroyed by the blue luminous attack.

"Not good!" Lilith panicked, about to cast another spell, but a middle-aged man's voice stopped her instantly.

"No need, just let me finish it."

Upon hearing the voice, Lilith ceased her movements and nodded in acknowledgment.

"Okay!" she replied firmly.

*Whoosh!*

The blue-luminous attack, having effortlessly obliterated Lilith's magic, swiftly descended upon the demon troops. However, in a sudden twist of events, an enormous black hand emerged from the void in the sky above the Demon Race and intercepted it.

*Boom!*

The collision produced a deafening sound and an intensely dazzling display of black and blue light, causing everyone to close their eyes.

After a while, the light gradually dimmed before finally fading away along with the two attacks.

Observing this scene, Lilith breathed a sigh of relief and cast a grateful glance toward Heidel.

"Archdemon Heidel, thank you for your assistance," Lilith said, bowing her head respectfully.

Heidel simply smiled and waved his hand. "No need to thank me, Lilith. It was my duty to intervene," he replied.

Glancing at his left hand, which bore traces of blood, Heidel couldn't help but smile. "How intriguing..."

Meanwhile, as they witnessed Luna's ultimate attack being halted by Heidel, Valen, Natasya, Rain, and Guren couldn't help but widen their eyes in astonishment.

"So powerful... That middle-aged man is truly terrifying," Guren muttered, swallowing hard.

The immense black hand that thwarted Luna's assault was overwhelmingly potent, leaving Guren feeling as if he were facing a monster himself.

Though Valen, Natasya, and Rain remained silent, their expressions conveyed their thoughts clearly.

Taking a deep breath, Natasya was the first to shake off her shock, her expression turning resolute.

"Don't be swayed! Otherwise, we'll be at a disadvantage!" Natasya's voice rang out loudly, snapping Valen, Rain, and Guren out of their shocks, each nodding with renewed determination.

Directing her gaze toward the Demon Race's troops, Natasya assumed command and issued a resounding order that echoed across the entire human troop.

"Everyone, attack!"

On the side of the Demon race, Heidel swiftly assumed control and issued a commanding call that reverberated throughout the entirety of the Demon troops behind him.

"Demon troops, launch an attack!"
