Chapter 323 Everyone Showing Their Own Strengths Part 2
Noa was loved by her people, but since she had disappeared when they came to this land, the people had begun to suffer. The royal family no longer cared about the people under them and began taxing them like crazy. Because General Yaya had stood up for the people, her position as General was also in trouble now. She would soon be demoted. Even if she were to win this war, her own position would still be taken from her. And if she continued, she knew that all that would be left for her is death….
General Yaya looked up towards the elf standing on the high earth wall off in the distance and wondered… Would she be willing to help the people still? She began weighing her options before creating a magic circle and sending out a message to Noa.
Noa heard the reply and smiled. After a few minutes, she once more waved her hand and whispered. Her response flew directly into General Yaya\'s ears, causing her eyes to open wide. She immediately sent up a signal flair. "All troops! As your commander, I now declare all the dragons on the ground our enemy!"
"General!" A young elf heard the order and was startled. "Does this mean we are no longer fighting the princess!?"
"I will explain later! For now, our enemy is in front of us! Kill without restraint! Do not touch the orcs or other races!" General Yaya gave her orders, and it was quickly passed down. The elves all began to follow suit. All except a batch of one hundred or so elves who slowly began moving across the battlefield, gathering up.
Of course, this action did not go unnoticed. General Yaya already expected that the prince had stuck people into her ranks. She took a deep breath and took aim with her bow. "For the betterment of my people!" An arrow sword through the air and pierced through the head of one of the elves who were gathering. This caused the other elves to become startled and yell out: "The enemy is still attacking us! Why are you attacking our allies!?"
"Fools! You dare gather together and ignore orders! You all deserve death!" General Yaya amplified her voice, causing the whole battlefield to suddenly go quiet. "Capture them. If anyone runs, kill them!"
While this was happening, Noa gave orders to only kill the dragons and no longer attack the elves. This caused the morale of the south side of the city to grow by leaps and bounds. Hundreds of thousands of elves had switched sides!
Olinia, who had been using the elves as cushions for the dead dragons in the air, quickly changed where she sent the dragons. The dragons at this time were in a state of confusion as they were being attacked from both sides all of a sudden.
On the other side of things, General Uo was getting reports on the situation and went into a rage. "Those fucking elves! This whole thing is a disaster! I knew we couldn\'t trust those damn long ears!"

"Report." Blake was trying to get a grasp on how the losses were. He was happy to hear that Noa was able to get the elves to turn traitors. This would make the battle south of him move faster and would free up the soldiers there to hold the front line.
"Sir, three thousand orcs have died. Over one hundred fairies and pixies as well. Sixty seven humans and three beastkin." The foxkin girl replied as she wiped the tears from her eyes.
"Okay… Thank you. Fall back. We will be falling back to the first defensive line. We need more protection." Blake wished he had done this before, but the offensive was not going to cut it. The air was clear, thanks to Clance\'s rampage, but the ground troops were not doing too well. The dragonic were mixing in with the dragons on the front line, attacking the orcs with powerful magic and killing them with claws. "Bret, have your men retreat. We are falling back to the first defensive line."
"Roger!" Bret quickly answered back and began giving out the orders.
While the ground troops began to move up in the air, Clance was killing dragon after dragon. Their bodies were collecting at the bottom of the massive barrier she had created. Her claws were ripping through their scales with ease while her magic was crushing them in mini black holes. She was going all out. But she could feel her fatigue getting to her, but she did not want the enemy to control the skies, and the ground troops were already under heavy burden.
She was covered in blood as she continued her rampage. She was doing this for the man she loved, for the people she now wished to protect with all her heart. She would give her life for all of them. This is what she decided. After spending so much time and receiving so much love from everyone, she realized this was what it meant to truly care for those around you. Unlike the loveless dragonic clan, this was a place she could truly be herself.
Dragon after dragon died by her claws. The dragons wanted to escape but knew it was impossible due to the barrier, so they had no choice but to want to fight. But by the time there were only a few tens of thousand left, they were stricken with fear to the point that they did not dare to resist anymore. It was only then that Clance smiled and waved her hand. "Do not resist!" contract magic circles by the thousands flew out and surrounded the remaining dragons. "You are now all under my command." She was not Lillia. She could not be sure her contracts would stick, so she had to make them willing to give up. Once they did, then she was sure she could break the contracts they already had and replace them with her own. "You are to now attack the dragons and dragonic on the ground. Do not hurt anyone I designated as an ally! Go!"
