All the heroes descended onto the battlefield. The path to the Demon King's castle lay wide open, with only a few obstacles remaining before entering the castle grounds.

"Jilk Burst!"

"Mountain Strike!" Zack swung his large sword.

In the blink of an eye, all the monsters disappeared from their view.

"Finally, the heroes have descended!" Demon Lord Dolce exclaimed.

"Now it's our turn to act, tehee!" Pico replied.

"You take care of that group of humans over there! Let me handle the Hero group!" says Demon Lord Dolce.

"Uhhh.. Huhhhh.. Pico wants to play with the Heroes, not with those weaklings."

"Do you think now is a good time to play?" Demon Lord Dolce became serious.

"Pico will go first!" Pico followed Dolce's orders, muttering to herself, "Dolce is no fun at all!"

"Is Shara okay?" Wells asked while dealing with monsters in another area.

"Shara is fine, Grandpa!"

"Garggghh!" One of the Goblins suddenly tried to attack Shara swiftly.

"Huh?" Shara didn't have time to dodge because she was too busy dealing with another monster. Without her realizing it, a cunning monster attempted a sneak attack.

*I don't have time to dodge!*

'Zhossh!'

As the monster was about to attack, an arrow appeared behind its head. Shara was surprised to see the monster suddenly collapse.

"An arrow? Who?" Shara's gaze turned towards the arrow behind the monster's head.

Once again, in a perilous situation, Shara was absorbed in the battle. She then looked up to see Demon soldiers falling one by one in front of her.

'Zhossh!'

'Zhossh!'

'Zhossh!'

Arrows swiftly passed Shara, killing the Demon soldiers behind her.

From a distance, someone wearing a black cloak with their head covered appeared. That person glanced at Shara and, in the blink of an eye, 'Shoooshhh,' he was in front of her. Shara couldn't react; the person's response was so swift. The person then leaped past Shara with a backflip.

'Dum!' The sound of landing on the ground.

'Zhossh!'

'Zhossh!'

'Zhossh!'

They killed all the Demon soldiers attempting to approach Shara.

Shara shifted her gaze to the person behind her.

"Huh?"

'Zhossh!'

Another arrow released by the person targeted the Demon soldiers behind Shara. The arrow missed Shara's face by an inch. In an instant, the monsters surrounding Shara were killed.

Shara's eyes were fixed on the person rather than her surroundings. She saw the face of the cloaked man just a few steps away.

"Raqnid!" For the first time, Shara uttered Raqnid's name in front of him.

Shara was stunned because she had believed that the man who was once her first love had perished. Now, he stood before her, holding a bow to save her. Her emotions were mixed with sadness and joy.
