"What happened? For you to suddenly change our objective."

Noel looked around and said, "I'll explain it later. They will probably have to know as well."

"So, we will let them go?"

"Yeah. It looks like they're moving toward a village. It's going to be troublesome, but the Supreme Devil Organization will be known from now on. Since we will kill all the demons here, even if they pick up demons along the way, we can shift the blame to them."

"Well, if you let them go with all the demons from this place, they will make it look like it is a demon attack. And it's your failure as the lord to protect your people. But with them having no more demons, the Supreme Devil Organization will have to take the blame." Layla nodded in understanding.

"Yeah. It's most likely that they will change their approach, which is a kind of assassination."

"I see. In that case, it's time to kill these demons. Do you want to have the honor?" Layla smiled.

"Of course." Noel looked at the demons that had been isolated by Layla's barrier.

Undying Phoenix.

He shot the phoenix into the sky before it flew toward the barrier. Layla opened the top part of the barrier, allowing the phoenix to enter and explode, devouring all the demons inside.

But as expected, the fire affected the barrier. A part of it melted and some demons used that hole to escape. Unfortunately, it only saved a few demons while the others were stuck inside and died from the intense blaze.

Layla caught a lot more demons as Noel kept killing them with his fire.

While doing so, Layla couldn't help but say, "This is surprising. Your fire is an extraordinary one… Normally, no one can break through my barrier. But your fire can actually melt my barrier down. It will be troublesome if you are the one attacking me right now."

"Well, you have been dividing your barrier into a lot of smaller ones. If you concentrate on only one barrier, I doubt my fire can do much."

"I am specialized in defense. So, creating a city-sized barrier is normal. And that is still enough to stop the incoming demons." Layla shook her head.

Noel understood it. In fact, her barrier might be able to withstand Qiel's arrow with a lot more enemies. Still, the stronger the opponents, the harder it would take to maintain the barrier. So, he doubted that Layla could last as long as the time they first met.

That was just one of his thoughts. He had a lot of other things to consider, especially the demons that dug the ground.

In the end, he decided to focus on killing the demons first before discussing this matter with Anna and all the pillars in the main city.
