In Terra, she is a hunter and a bad woman.

But this time, it’s different from the past.

The former Kazdel collapsed, but the Sarkaz will eventually win the war and rebuild their home.

But this time, if they lose it, no one can guarantee that they can rebuild this city again...

The coalition's current strength far exceeded their imagination.

Contrary to what Theresa thought, she had thought that these lords of the royal court would be the most staunch supporters of the Sarkaz and would stand up at this time, but she forgot that they had been living in war and might be the people who hated war the most.

"The Sarkaz don't fear war... but they grow weary of it."

Maria suddenly recalled a book she had read before, in which the first sentence was this one.

It is said that it is an autobiography written by a Sarkaz, describing his experiences from growing up under the leadership of the Flawless King, to experiencing wars, and then wandering.

No Sarkaz would tremble on the battlefield, but no Sarkaz would smile on the battlefield either.

They are really tired.

Theresa, who was standing next to the Demon King's seat, couldn't help but clench her fists when she saw everyone's reaction.

She wanted to say something, but she knew she couldn't.

Going against the crowd was not what she wanted.

But at this moment, Dukare spoke.

"Abandon Kazdel? What kind of despicable and pathetic person would make such a choice? Girl, your question makes me laugh."

Dukare sneered and declared his readiness to fight at this moment.

Niecilei on the side also nodded.

"The Sarkaz never abandon their companions or their homeland...Any ignorant person who wants to destroy the Sarkaz will eventually be drowned in the Sarkaz's wrath!"

"..."

It is easy to understand what Neczrei is thinking. He has always been an extremely loyal Sarkaz supporter, and his feelings towards Sarkaz may be the most intense among everyone present.

As such, he would rather die in battle than abandon the holy land of the Sarkaz!

but……

What does Dukare mean by speaking at this time?

"Agree."

The Lich representative also spoke at this time and made his own judgment.

It was also at this time that, with Maria's nod, Lamaren spoke calmly.

"Guard Kazdel!"

Seeing that the major royal courts had made their decisions, the other wavering royal courts also gritted their teeth.

"We can't give up on Kazdel!"

“This is our home!”

"Those coalition bastards must die here!"

Gradually, the other sounds in the conference room were drowned out, and only the voice of those who stood firm in Kazdel continued to echo.

No one likes to give up their home.

Even though they did have the idea of ​​backing out just now, it did not affect their inner thoughts.

They are only thinking about their own race.

If they really cannot resist, they are unwilling to let their compatriots die in vain.

But now, several major royal courts have made clear their stances, which has given them some hope for the originally hopeless war situation.

It's like the last ray of hope a drowning person grasps.

They will do whatever it takes to grab it!

Theresa breathed a sigh of relief when she saw this scene.

But she knew it wasn't over yet.

Next, is the real highlight of this meeting...

"Now that everyone has reached an agreement, then... now that the Demon King is no longer around, we still need a temporary leader."

"A leader... capable of commanding everyone!"

Theresa's voice was like a bucket of cold water, instantly depressing the atmosphere at the scene.

Everyone knew that this might be the most important thing in this meeting.

Now that the Demon King is gone, this so-called temporary leader is the symbol of the Sarkaz's highest power.

Since the death of the previous Demon King Eresh, the Black Crown, the symbol of the Demon King's authority, has disappeared.

Even the Sarkaz don't know much about the Black Crown, but they know that the Black Crown will choose its master.

That is to say...

As long as you can become a leader, you will most likely be recognized by the Black Crown and become the Demon King!

This is a supreme right.

Even though they are already the masters of the royal court, it is difficult for them to refuse this power.

Although no one spoke, everyone's eyes were actually on the four people closest to the throne.

But soon, the lich representative took a step back.

He has many suitable conditions and many unsuitable conditions, but no matter what, they don't want to get involved.

So he chose to take a step back and voluntarily gave up the fight this time.

The other lords of the royal court also understood this action, shook their heads, and then put their hands down on the conference table.

Soon, everyone else abstained.

Only three royal courts were still engaged in a silent struggle at the conference table.

The most powerful banshee in Kazdel.

A scavenger with the god of war.

The blood demon who once killed his own demon brother with his own hands.

In everyone's eyes, the strength of the three is equally matched, and no one will have any objection to who comes to power.

only……

They really couldn't imagine who among these three would take the seat...

But to everyone's surprise, the God of War, the Scavenger King Niezlei, who they had placed high hopes on, quietly put down his hand...

this? !

For a moment, everyone couldn't help but widen their eyes.

But what surprised them even more was that Niecilei not only voluntarily withdrew from the competition, but even stood up on his own initiative.

"Scavengers have no interest in power. We will fight the war in our own way."

"As for the leaders of this war..."

"Perhaps, the Banshee is the most suitable person to take on this responsibility now..."

He actually took the initiative to recommend the Banshee? !

Everyone clicked their tongues.

For a moment, many people thought of the secret meeting of the Banshee Court and the Scavenger Court that was made public some time ago.

They began to wonder if there had been any signs of this happening.

While hesitating, everyone's eyes fell on Dukare standing aside.

In the entire venue, he was the only one still competing with the banshees.

There was another moment of silence, and then Ducare suddenly sneered.

"Nezrei, hero of the Sarkaz, you are becoming more and more foolish..."

"How could you choose to trust a group of banshees who even lost their own royal city?"

"I don't expect you to see the road ahead clearly, but can't you even tell where the road is dead?"

As Ducare said this, he raised his neck again and looked at Maria and Ramalen in front of him with contempt.

"I didn't mean to bring up too much..."

"but……"

"Banshee Lord, on such a significant occasion, you actually brought your followers with you? Isn't that too rude?"

Ducare's voice was not loud, but it made everyone present look at Ramalen who was standing beside him.

Although Maria, the Banshee Princess, is indeed a very noble person, but now, in this meeting... Maria, who is not the Lord of the Royal Court, is indeed not qualified to take the stage, let alone be on an equal footing with them.

They wanted to know what Lamaren was thinking.

“…Watch your words!”

Lamaren frowned upon hearing Ducare's disdain for Maria. "She is my princess. She shares everything with me, so she's naturally qualified to be here... Besides, it's not your place to dictate matters concerning the banshee, Blood Demon!"

"Of course I know."

Ducare still maintained his calm demeanor. He put down the wine glass in his hand and shook his fingers slightly.

The blood in the cup seemed to come alive, turning into a bloody snake that carefully climbed onto his fingers.

"It's just that I really don't have much confidence in you."

"How can I trust someone as important as Kazdel to protect him when he can't even protect his own home?"

Dukare kept talking about the banshees losing their royal city.

Obviously, he won't give in so easily.

Lamaren beside her also frowned.

But Maria just patted the girl's hand gently, and then held it quietly.

"Do you think you're suitable, Lord Blood Demon?"

Lamaren's tone leveled off, and her eyes returned to calmness.

"Can a madman who dares to attack his own brothers and even the Demon King really lead the Sarkaz?"

"maybe……"

Dukare did not respond directly. He just played with the blood snake in his hand with a sarcastic smile on his face.

"But it's better than you, isn't it?"

After saying this, he stood up, looked at all the lords of the royal court present, and calmly announced his decision.

"If we allow these people to be leaders... then we Blood Demons will choose to leave."

"The Blood Demon will defend Kazdel in his own way..."

Ducaré's meaning was clear.

He did not recognize the Banshees' position as leader.

For a moment, everyone was in a dilemma.

Ducaré's threat to withdraw is truly despicable.

But given Kazdel's current situation, they really can't afford to lose Blood Demon, this powerful helper.

For a moment, everyone's eyes turned to Ramalen who was standing aside.

If the Blood Demon really withdraws... the other royal courts will withdraw as well, but they will be more or less shaken.

Perhaps a small failure will lead to extremely serious consequences...

Besides...what Ducare said is indeed correct.

The Banshees couldn't even defend their own royal city, let alone Kazdel...
