She could easily disperse Hell Flames and even his powerful Heaven's Lightning that he had recently acquired. However, Saito wasn't out of his own trump cards yet. Even Naomi didn't know or understand the special ability of his Nightfall Sword.

The Clan Head currently had no choice but to concentrate his own magic and sent out in the body of each member of the Sea Dragon Clan to disperse the illusion.

After his magic entered their bodies, he couldn't help but sigh out in admiration. The thing that Saito was controlling wasn't the surroundings but rather the magic within their bodies. Saito had spread out his own magic within this magic. Every breath that they took, they inhaled some of his magic.

And it seemed as if Saito was still able to retain his control over that magic. It would be useless for other people to know how to do this, after all, the amount of magic they could control was limited and couldn't change anything. However, it was completely different if it was in the control of an Illusion Master.

They simply need that bit of magic within the bodies of their enemies and create chaos while showing an image to them. The more they tried to use their magic after that, the worse the situation.

It could only be resolved if the opponent was able to calm down his own magic. But from Saito's description of the illusion, all the members of the Sea Dragon Clan seemed to understand that they were in an illusion.

But instead of trying to calm down, they were flaring up their magic and forcefully breaking out of this illusion. This not only did not resolve the situation but incredibly worsened it.

The illusionary body of Saito let out a sigh as he said, "I am rather unfortunate. To think I decided to use another illusion on you. If I had used the same one on you then I wouldn't have any problems. Ah well…"

Those words caused the Clan head to break out in cold sweat. Indeed, if Saito used this illusion on him, perhaps even he would take some time before realizing the theory behind the illusion. It certainly wouldn't be easy to get out of the illusion before Saito kills all the members of the Sea Dragon Clan.

After a bit of time, the Illusionary Body raised his hand seemed like he was crackling his fingers.

"Time to start… Since it's your good fortune to not be caught in my illusion. There are two choices left for the Clan Head. Watch what is going to happen and enjoy or try and stop me." Without even giving the Clan Head any time to think, some trees started to grow at the back of the force.

Each one of them had many long vines that were flailing around. It touched some of the members of the Sea Dragon Clam. As those vines reached the members of the Sea Dragon Clan, the people seemed to feel like their life was sucked out of them.

This also ended the illusion for them, but they were so surprised and couldn't adjust themselves to what was happening around them.

After 3 seconds, they seemed to have realized something was going on as they looked down and noticed their body slowly getting weaker.

Though they tried to struggle, it was far too late when the vines suddenly bound their bodies. Their life force was sucked by the trees, which accelerated their growth.

The Clan Head was agitated, he didn't think that Saito had planned to deal with the Sea Dragon Clan in such a cowardly and despicable way. It was another thing to fight against the clan but entirely another to ambush them like this.

He immediately rushed towards those growing trees to cut them down. However, he never expected that as soon as he would rush towards the back of the line-up.

Trees would start to grow near the position where he was standing. The vines from the growing trees avoided the Deputy Clan Head's body and sucked on the life force of all the other members.

Even the ones with the Golden Dragon's Bloodline couldn't get out of the vines. Their strength was genuinely magnificent, but in just one breath of time, the tree was able to suck 35% of their full power.

Even when they broke out of the illusion, they naturally couldn't exert their full strength. The Clan Members were unable to get out of those vines.

By the time Clan Head reached the vines and cut them off. He looked at the members he had saved. It was like they had instantly aged over 200 years. They still had some breath remaining, but it was clear that they wouldn't be able to exhibit the powers of their youth.

He turned around, and his eyes widened, even more, when he saw the vines near the spot where he was initially standing. The reason he was even more enraged right now was that the real elites of the Clan were all in the front together with him.

Attacking them was akin to attacking the foundation of the clan. As the Clan Head watched on for a second, he noticed how much difference a single second had created. The members who still had some youthful look on their faces now had sunken faces with extremely greyish-black skin.

The Clan Head didn't have a choice but to move forwards to cut off those vines as well. He couldn't allow those trees to grow. If they continued to grow, the number of vines would increase, they would be able to grab hold of more members at the same time.

He had no choice but to abandon the ones at the back of the whole force to save those elite members. He had after all only cut off the vines now, he couldn't cut off the tree so quickly.

The tree continued to grow out more vines and grabbed hold of more people. By the time, the Clan head rescued the Elite members of his clan. His clan already lost around 10-15% of the total people along with 2 elite members.

It was a significant loss for his clan. He couldn't believe that even with his own presence, he couldn't save them all also though Saito had not yet initiated in combat.

Saito was standing on the edge of the forest which was near to the direction of the Dwarf Kingdom. He was clear about his actions that at the most, this trick would be able to deal around 20-25% damage to the whole clan.

This ability was something one could only use for the ambushes because, after 12 hours, the magic in the trees would start dispersing before disappearing as if they were never present.

He was sure that with this damage to the clan, the Clan Head would be a lot more observant on his way. It would be impossible to ambush him or surprise him now. However, this caution would cost their speed.

The Clan Head would have to maintain a low speed to carefully gauge everything and decide. Saito let out a relieved sigh since this was his main objective. To slow down the rate of the Clan head.

Though he certainly didn't care about the life and death of the Second Prince and Third Princess, he wouldn't mind helping them out. They were the blood relatives of Rita. He licked his lips in anticipation at the reward he was going to ask from her.

Though from her deposition, perhaps she would jump into his bosom before he even says anything.

Right now, the ones who indeed weighed Saito's mind were Lyra and Chloe. He thought with a heavy feeling in his heart 'Are the two of you fine? For… For my selfish motives, I had to leave you. Will you be angry with me when we meet? After finishing up here, I will search for the two of you.'

He closed his eyes as he thought about his first wife, Lyra. That voluptuous cute woman was so lovely that it almost seemed like a dream. Chloe was also adorable; her beauty was on the same level as Lyra's, and her disposition was also excellent.

One of the real reasons he had never been able to accept Chloe was because he wasn't the Axel that she knew. He was somewhat scared as well… Scared that she wouldn't be able to take him if she found out the truth.

However, it also burnt his selfish side more. The more he was scared about Chloe finding of the truth, the more he wanted to hide it from her. He was sure that she wouldn't be able to find out the truth unless he spelled it out for her.

He naturally wasn't going to do that, he didn't care if these actions seemed despicable. He had started to care for Chloe, he wanted to be with her. He wanted her to be with himself.

It wasn't a good reason to explain his selfishness? Who cared? If both were happy…

~~

Right around this time, the two Demon Lords, Azaroth and Bakaul were engaged in an all-out war. It was obviously due to the presence of Naomi. If she wasn't here at the scene, then this situation wouldn't have escalated to such a point.

Azaroth simply wanted an explanation for Naomi's injuries. Since Bakaul hadn't made a move, it would be rather idiotic for him to wage war just due to some small demons.

However, Naomi simply added oil to the flames as she says to Azaroth that Bakaul truly intended to wage war against them. The poster plan which Saito had made was pushed upon Bakaul by Naomi's careful choice of words.

Even Bakaul was dumbfounded as narrated her hypothesis on what he wanted to do. He wanted the Demon Forces to disperse from Azaroth's territory before suddenly attacking the region when quite a several demon forces had scattered away.

After the territory was captured, it wouldn't be difficult for Bakaul to annihilate the dispersed demons from the Azaroth's region. The fact that some of them may also change sides was something that Naomi had still not spoken about.

With the way she had said, Azaroth naturally thought Bakaul planned to do this. Bakaul's army was indeed well managed, and almost all of them seemed to be behind him. If someone told Azaroth that Bakaul wasn't preparing for the war, then he wouldn't believe it even if someone beats him to death.

However, that wasn't the case as Azaroth had imagined. Unlike the carefree Azaroth, Bakaul had a strict administration in his territory.

The Demon Kings weren't allowed to do anything they pleased. They all had specific tasks which they had to do by nightfall.. One of the Demon King's missions was to check up on the demons.
