Ray, who was already too late to realize what was going on and only returned after receiving the message from Alex, reached the battlefield that had been completely destroyed.

The city was completely razed to the ground. The soldiers were fighting against the demons bravely, but they were pushed back.

These buildings that remained as rubbles carried a lot of memories for him, Alex, and Margaretha. When he saw this scene, he could only close his eyes. The anger started to build up, wanting to kill all the demons.

However, what happened to the terrain was completely beyond something he could imagine.

There was supposed to be a mountain range in this place, but that area had turned into something completely different. One of them was cut straight in the middle, turning it into a canyon. The other one had been flattened to the ground.

But the biggest mountain among them was destroyed right in the middle, turning the top into that of a crater.

The vegetation had been reduced to ashes, and the ground was charred black.

The fight seemed to have stopped as there was no Demon King insight, so Ray tried to find his sister and Alex.

It didn't take too long for them to reunite, but the sight was simply unforgettable.

Alex's body was full of wounds that a single touch might be able to knock him down. Yet, he firmly stood and carried the woman he loved so much. It felt like he used all the remaining he had to ensure that she wouldn't feel anything.

However, Margaretha wasn't moving. Her legs were hanging lifelessly and her arms were resting over her stomach. Her head leaned on Alex's shoulder, but there was no sign of movement.

Ray's heart sank as if realizing what had happened.

He rushed to them and confirmed her sister's condition, which caused him to fall to her knees. The only thing Alex said at that time was, "I should have been smarter," and those words struck his heart far deeper than anything he could imagine.

There were a lot of words Ray wanted to say, but he knew that Alex didn't make any mistakes. He wanted to say to his brother-in-law that everything was going to be alright, but he was unable to do it. All the words stuck in his throat because his beloved sister had just died.

That tragedy didn't end there. Due to this incident, the demons went on a rampage. Now that he lost the reason to fight, Alex succumbed to his depression, unable to wield his sword anymore.

The demons continued forward and pushed the kingdoms back, eventually splitting the four Kingdoms with the demihuman city.

If Noel was here, he would be able to see the future of the mountain range. Yes, the valley he crossed to reach Old Ru's house was actually the canyon Alex created with his sword. The dome where Old Ru built his house was the mountain that Alex crushed with his fire, and the path leading to it was where the original Ardagan Family resided.
