A bit shocked when he sensed her magic, Alvaneth thought with a grim look as he continued running 'This aura… This is the aura of Seven Sin Fox Monarch. But how… The last Seven Sin Fox Monarch was sealed under the Great Tree by none other than the Ancient Elf Queen. Did she manage to spread her bloodline through some method? Looks like it will be worth it to follow her.'
He was also rather reluctant to follow her so far away. If the range between him and Helena exceeded 20 miles, he wouldn't be able to restrict her at all. Even Helena would realize that.
However, now that he found out the identity of Naomi, he planned to chase her to wherever she was going.
~~
Soon enough, just as he created about 20 miles of distance between himself and Helena. Helena noticed his mark within her body had disappeared.
While she was distracted by that mark, she failed to counter the attack from Azaroth as his fire punch landed on her stomach and threw her. Though it damaged her, there was a trace of a smile on her face as she thought 'Gaaah…. I am free… I am free. I need to run away quickly.'
She stood up on her feet and had a trace of a smile even though she was just punched on her gut. The Nether Magic started to spin wildly around her as she said, "Let me give you two an advice. Run away as quickly as possible. Don't be caught by that bastard Alvaneth."
Right after saying that, instead of facing them, she started running in the opposite direction. Her words left both Azaroth and Bakaul in confusion. The fight against her was truly nerve-wracking for them.
It was hard to fight against a user of Nether Magic, especially when they were both injured. They couldn't help but think about the words that she spoke before running away.
They remembered that guy with the Purple Sword Qi. And both concluded at the same time 'That guy must be named Alvaneth. Just who is he? How can he make a demon lord work for him?'
Obviously, they had no idea who Alvaneth was but now, they laid down on the ground and started to recover.
Their subordinates seemed like they were having a hard time against the 8 subordinates who had come along with Alvaneth and Helena. Even with their superior numbers, the 8 Demons seemed to be immovable. They had only received some minor injuries which had begun healing.
In fact, Azaroth and Bakaul's forces seemed to have lost some demons. And if this continued, even if these 8 Demons were killed, they would greatly damage the forces under Azaroth and Bakaul.
For now, they planned to recover back some strength before making a move to deal with these 8 Demons.
~~
Meanwhile, Saito who was sleeping until now suddenly jolted away as he sensed a huge amount of magic being used. Some of the trees he had created were cut down in the forest.
He immediately jumped up and started to fly high in the air. His eyes widened in shock when he noticed a part of the forest where the trees had fallen on the ground.
The distance between his own location and that place was very great. However, he still found it hard to believe how someone could slash so many trees in such a large area.
"Who did this? Was it done by Sea Dragon Clan? But I can sense all their members… all of them have covered two-thirds of the way out of the forest. So, was it done by Naomi or someone else? I need to go and investigate." He started to fly towards the source of that magic. It was the most demonic magic that he had even sensed in his life.
Suddenly, after a few seconds, he sensed another magic and his face changed. His face went blank as he stopped for a few seconds before he gnashed his teeth and rushed towards this new magic he sensed.
This was obviously Naomi's magic. The reason he could sense it so clearly was that her position was near the trees he had created and the fact that she wasn't concealing it right now.
It easily helped him locate Naomi very accurately. Soon after, he sensed another source of magic following behind her. The magic he sensed from that person was rather similar the magic source from earlier.
"Is she running away from someone?" With a tch, Saito rushed towards Naomi. This would be a great chance to get rid of her.
He could feel that the one who was following her wasn't weak. If they both attacked Naomi at the same time. Then even with her tricks, she wouldn't be able to survive.
While flying towards her, he anticipated the direction in which she was running away. Saito suddenly stopped in the air as he started to think 'Wait… Why am I rushing straight for her? From the direction she is running, it seems that she plans to join up with the Sea Dragon Clan and kill this guy following her.'
He knew where she was going so catching up to her was no longer a problem. He immediately changed his direction. He also descended on the ground while concealing his magic and waited for Naomi to come now.
He waited for 10-15 minutes and let out a relieved sigh when he sensed them. It looked like Naomi's plan truly was to use the Sea Dragon Clan to either kill this person behind her or just let the Sea Dragon Clan fight against him and run away.
At that moment, he jumped down on the path while suddenly releasing his magic. His huge magic did shock both Naomi and Alvaneth. Naomi was closer to Saito's position and she could even see his face.
There was a cold smile on his face as he stared at her with a ruthless look in his eyes. He strongly gripped his Nightfall Sword and opened his mouth, "Ho-ho… Isn't it a small world? I never expected to encounter a Demonic Fox right now. Such a coincidence…"
This time, Naomi gritted her teeth in anger as she thought 'Coincidence my ass! You were obviously waiting for me here.'
However, she wasn't one to let the anger get the better of her. The distance between her and Alvaneth was still great.
The corners of her mouth turned up as she said, "Hello mate… I am happy to see you well. Would you mind letting me go today? I promise to never forget this favor."
"What are you saying, Fox? I never stopped you. You can go if you wish." Came the reply as he held that sword in his hands.
It was one of the rare instances where Naomi was truly speechless. She looked towards his sword as if saying 'Do you think of me as a fool? Why are you gripping your sword so strongly if you don't plan to use it?'
She couldn't help but think 'That guy behind me is already enough to make me run for my life. That monster is unaffected by my Illusions. Dammit… I need to convince him fast.'
Naomi once again started to speak, "Listen, we both do not have any real hatred between each other. Even though it's been so much time, I have not attacked the Elf Kingdom. This should prove to you that I am not your enemy."
"Doesn't matter to me." Saito wasn't affected by her words at all. They both knew well enough why she hadn't attacked the Elf Kingdom.
She was still not strong enough to deal with Elf Queen and her subordinates alone. Besides, the presence of the Great Tree also boosted the magic of Elves now that the Nature Vein had been unsealed. She obviously didn't want to risk her life by attacking the Elf Kingdom without proper preparations or else the Elf Queen may seal her again as her ancestor did.
Saito suddenly made his move. He was immediately in front of Naomi as he thrust his sword towards her head.
Naomi narrowly dodged that thrust. Even though she dodged the attack from his sword, there was no change on Saito's expression. He seemed to have expected this from her.
His other hand opened and Naomi faced Saito's open palm at close-range. Saito spoke out with a calm face, "Wind Blades."
Instantly, multiple wind blades were formed and slashed Naomi's whole body. Even she couldn't dodge them all with her flexibility and agility.
After the attack from Saito, she knew that there was no choice for her but to fight. She immediately bent down her body and touched the ground with her right hand.
Narrowing his pupils, Saito immediately jumped away from that location.. He was very lucky as he narrowly avoided a huge amount of Demonic Energy coming out from the ground and surrounding Naomi from all directions.
