Chapter 944: Alliance

The sheer scale of the onslaught went unnoticed as the soldiers struggled to push past the Stone Wardens. While the city burned, Archer advanced toward them, his eyes locked on the chaos behind his summons.

Archer unleashed a barrage of Plasma Missiles into the enemy ranks, each explosion

contributing to the mounting piles of corpses and sending torrents of blood spilling into the

sea.

This was his cue to summon his wings and take flight, but the Anti-Mana shield interfered, causing him to crash violently into the water instead. While sinking into the darkness, something swallowed him.

He was just about to attack when Demetra\'s voice appeared in his mind, instantly calming him down. "It\'s me, darling; I told you I would come back, but I never realized there were so many people trying to attack you," she said in a concerned tone.

Archer smiled before asking her to let him out so he could sit on her head. After doing that, he told her to surface as the meteors closed into the Mediterra coast where the Free City was located.

When the couple breached the surface, they saw a dozen glowing rocks breaching the atmosphere and falling toward the city. Archer spotted this and cast Cosmic Shield around them as the first hit.

A tremendous explosion reverberated through the ground, jolting Archer as he sat atop Demetra. He glanced up to see a colossal mushroom cloud billowing into the sky as additional meteors pounded the earth.

"Everyone must be dead by now; that spell shows no mercy," Archer said with a dark grin.

He then instructed the Demon Shark woman to follow the fleet back to Draconia. At the same time, he settled comfortably against her dorsal fin, allowing himself a moment of rest amidst the chaos.

Lost in thought, Archer instructed Aisha to deploy spies to track down Eveline, Aurelia, and all his friends and bring them back to Draconia. Aisha agreed with a smile and then informed Archer that Aeris was searching for him in the palace.

Following that, the two of them made their way toward Draconia. Upon reaching the mist wall, Archer channeled most of his mana into it, intensifying its dangerous nature. With the mist now more formidable than ever, they approached the seawall and were greeted by the Homeguard.

Soon after, the kingdom was locked down, with strict orders barring anyone from entering or leaving. The populace rallied behind Archer, aware that the central continent had orchestrated the trap.

Archer met with the Ironfoot family and showed them the submarines, underwater vessels, and many other weapons they could use in the coming war.

[The Worlds POV]

In the following weeks, the tale of the Mediterra Slaughter-an atrocity wrought by Archer Wyldheart upon the innocent realms attending the conference-echoed across Thrylos. Mana Recordings of his ruthless deeds circulated widely, painting him as an embodiment of evil.

Some people even started referring to him as the Evil Dragon King, and this spread like wildfire. Many people only saw one side of the ambush and believed Archer slaughtered them for no reason.

Anyone who said differently was assassinated or went missing, which amounted to hundreds of noble families vanishing overnight as they were sympathetic toward the Draconians and their king.

The Novgorod and Nightshade Empires seized this opportunity, broadcasting these recordings far and wide. They depicted the White Dragon as a villain intent on seizing the princesses of the kingdoms and igniting outrage among distant realms.

An alliance began to take shape, rallying against the perceived threat. Yet, some empires and kingdoms on Pluoria defied these rumors. Unmoved by the Novgorod alliance\'s provocations, their rulers refused to join the coalition, much to the emperor\'s chagrin.

Despite his irritation, he chose to leave them to their course. With the help of Frostwood, Orientia, and Avidia, the alliance grew to have billions of soldiers and ships as the world rallied against the evil Draconians.

The Church of Light and the other religions of the world rallied against the Fireheart Faith, but the devil\'s followers snuck away, and only a few hundred were caught, which the alliance put to death.

Months stretched by, and no news came from Draconia because nothing left their island or the Death Mist that blocked them from invading. This caused them to turn inward and clear out their realms of traitors and sympathizers.

The alliance tried to convince the neutral kingdoms and empires to join its cause, and many did. Every kingdom north of the Avalonians joined when told Archer would come after their homes next.

Many preachers and spies infiltrated the neutral kingdoms and rallied the people against the Draconians. They were enraged when the church released a Mana Recorder of Archer kidnapping the Avaloch Princess Maeve.

All but the Lionheart and Aquaria Kingdoms aligned themselves with the burgeoning alliance. However, the Avalon and Solaris Empires remained steadfastly neutral, unmoved by the falsehoods about Archer.

The rulers of these empires knew him personally and understood that the only conceivable motive for such devastation would be if those he cared for were in danger or had already been

harmed.

Their faith in Archer\'s intentions led them to dismiss the propaganda and stand apart from the growing coalition. This isolated their realms from the trading network, causing them to turn inward and become self-sufficient.

[The Alliance Fleet - Admiral Yuto Kitsunia]

A massive armada of allied ships sailed toward Draconia led by the skilled Admiral of the Kitsunia Empire, where they would bombard the island before initiating a land invasion with the combined army.

While closing in on the island, they caught a Draconian Fleet fleeing back to it. Yuto shouted through a mana device, "Sink those devils! Don\'t let them escape."

Before they could fire, a wave of mana shells showered the Allied fleet, causing explosions to ring out across the sea. Yuto panicked but ordered a fire at will. His ships returned fire and sunk several of the enemy vessels.

It became a chase as the devils sped up and used mana shield to block any more attacks. This continued for an hour until a massive violet cloud was spotted in the distance, causing Yuto to order them to speed up.

"Barrel through the mist! Our shields will protect us from whatever surprises they have for us," he informed the other captains through the device.

Several ships pursued a massive Draconian warship, which had already sunk more than half their fleet before the remaining vessels could retaliate. As the battle raged, the Draconian ship reached a shrouded mist and vanished from sight.

The mist quickly engulfed the pursuing ships, the eerie fog swallowing them whole. Yuto ordered the rest of the fleet to circle the mist and blockade Draconia, watching with mounting horror as one of his ships staggered out of it.

When the device crackled to life, it delivered a nightmarish revelation: the sailors aboard had been transformed into a grotesque sludge once the mist hit them. Following that, the alliance leaders ordered them to back off and make sure no one could escape.

Thousands of alliance ships blocked the island and isolated it, but this didn\'t affect the Draconians in any way because they could support themselves without the need for trade with

the outside world.

[Jeremiah Volkovitvh POV]

The Pope sat in the Novgorod Palace with his wife Natalia after the emperor and empress summoned them. Jeremiah couldn\'t figure out what Anatoly wanted, but it couldn\'t have been bad, as he would have been arrested.

He had been the plan\'s architect to fool the other continents into attacking Draconia, which boosted their numbers. Jeremiah knew not all realms wanted in on the alliance, but their neighbors or the Novgorodian Army wanted otherwise.

\'I\'m happy the boy was too confident and fell into our trap,\' he mused with a wicked smile.

Following that, Anatoly and Anastassia Volkovitch appeared. The emperor greeted them with a nod before speaking, "Those people visited and gave us another weapon to use against the

Evil Dragon King."

Jeremiah\'s eyes widened, \'They have been working with the empire as well!\' he internally

said.

"What is this new weapon?" he asked, puzzled. "The poisons have stopped working; he was hit by numerous darts during the slaughter."

Anatoly nodded in agreement, but Anastassia explained. "It\'s an Anti-Mana cannon," she

said. It disrupts his access to magic, leaving him exposed and vulnerable to our Dragon

cannons."

Jeremiah nodded, "The church is preparing more soldiers for the invasions. How is the empire\'s recruitment going?"

The emperor sighed, "We are training millions of soldiers across Verdantia and in our colonies aboard. The allies are raising more troops to attack the neutral realms."\'

The meeting continued, and Jeremiah was tasked with finding a way through the Death Mist

to protect Draconia. At the same time, Natalia was grabbed by Catherine and dragged off to

have something to eat.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

After that, he and the emperor spoke briefly until he returned to his city in the south to

prepare for the upcoming war.
