"What\'s that? Did they have cannons?" Lydia questioned, she couldn\'t believe that one person can cause such damage.

Everyone carefully observed the surroundings but to their surprise, except this weird dark elf, who came to attack them all alone, there was nothing that could cause that much damage.

"Everyone, be careful, we are fighting with something strange," Zenda carefully observed and managed to capture the movements of this strange person, so she knew this was something foreign to them, just like Ubela or cursed transformations.

Noticing the presence beneath them, none of them was able to take a clear shot at this attacker, so they had to change their position.

Even though Usha was ordered to go back, she waited to see how this incident would develop but then she noticed something strange.

"Mmmh! This is strange," She mumbled to herself, and carefully looked at the attacker that is trying to harm the heavenly wall.

It had claws coming out of its hand, which looked a little creepy, but that was not the surprising part, it used fire magic against the wall to cause an explosion and for a dark elf, damaging something like this wall with mana was something impossible at least normally, but everyone noticed there is a sharp claw mark on the wall.

"No way, it managed to damage the wall, I thought only Nikol was possible of doing that," It\'s not that Zenda couldn\'t believe this, but she didn\'t want to believe this was happening.

"What do we do now? Nikol, Alva and Emily are not here and Usha and Eva are both injured, only two of us can give this one a challenge," Touching Zenda\'s shoulder, Lydia questioned.

"Well, we have to do it anyway, are you scared?" Zenda couldn\'t believe how close she was with Lydia recently, she felt like she found her best friend because of how similar their ideas are.

"Haha! I\'m always scared but I have to protect my sister and our future hope, so if things go wrong let her escape," Both of them smile at each other for one last time, but suddenly they heard another explosion beneath them showing their clock is ticking.

"Let\'s go, no time to talk," As soon as the shaking on the wall stopped, both of them tried to jump from the wall and attack the enemy but, they couldn\'t even try that as they heard several footsteps approaching them rather fast.

Usha and Eva also noticed this and couldn\'t explain how relieved they felt.

"It\'s Nikol, he\'s here to help us, everyone gets ready to attack the enemy while he distracts it," Zenda and Lydia quickly changed their plans, but suddenly they heard the manly voice of Nikol shouting at them.

"More dark elves are coming, I will deal with this strange one, you guys try to shoot all the other dark elves," He ordered showing that it wasn\'t a joke when he said that he will lead them from now on.

All the alliance girls heard him and quickly got ready with their remaining explosive cannons.

"Almost all of our magic users are injured, so we will have to shoot using our magic, the output won\'t be good but we have to try," Lydia ordered them.

While they were getting ready to deal with Eldora\'s army, Nikol looked at the enemy in front of him with his eyes narrowed.

"This one is strong," He knew Alva and Emily wouldn\'t stand a chance against it, so he quickly tried to drop them somewhere safe until others come to rescue them but suddenly, Alva started acting weird as soon as she saw the figure of the enemy that is trying to break the wall.

"What are you doing, Alva? Come back here," Emily worried about her friend quickly shouted.

Nikol also wondered what was happening, he was extra careful not to lose control this time like previous battle and cause extra damage, also he wanted to capture some dark elves and collect their curse magic to create the same liquid.

Curse magic had the property of a magnet, so it was rather easy for Nikol to absorb and use them but, he couldn\'t curse anyone with that because he just gave that liquid a physical form instead of absorbing it into his body.

The main reason he couldn\'t use them was because of his lack of mana core, which is the main place cursed mana needs to be stored if one wants to be a cursed mage.

"Nikol, I know her," Suddenly pointing at Number one, Alva said with her face trembling in fear and anger, which confused both Nikol and Emily.

"What are you talking about? "

Nikol took a good look at his enemy\'s face and realised it was something like a cursed transformation. He wondered whether it is someone, they know since even before Nikol arrived on this island, the dark elves used to attack humans.

"She looks like my grandmother, who went lost when Eldora attacked us many years ago," Shocking both Emily and Nikol, she said something rather absurd.

They understood why she was like this, especially Emily who noticed the resemblance of Elisha after Alva told her that.

"No way, they turned her into a transformation," Emily, who came forward to take a closer look said while quickly grabbing her sword in anger.

Even though she didn\'t love her as much as Alva, still she vividly remembered how Elisha used to treat her and protect her every time, when they got into a problem.

"I\'ll definitely kill these dark elves! I will crush each and every one of them," Alva\'s eyes were red in anger and her whole body was twitching non-stop with tears coming out of her eyes.

Nikol noticed this and thought about hugging her like he used to do and calming her down, but right now, he didn\'t feel like doing any of those things.

"Emily, take Alva and hide somewhere safe, I\'m going to fight that," Nikol touched both of their shoulders and ordered without giving into his feelings and getting all emotional.

Alva, who heard this looked at Nikol with the same eyes filled with hatred and asked,

"If this was your sister, how would you react?" She didn\'t even have to ask that question because all of them knew the answer to it.

They knew how Nikol nearly wiped out a dark elf squad all alone because of a misunderstanding.

"I thought so, don\'t you think it\'s a bit hypocritical to stop me now," Her question made perfect sense to Nikol because he somewhat understood how Alva must be feeling right now.

"Answer me, Nikol," Alva kept pushing him until she heard the words, she was waiting for.

"I know, I\'m being a hypocrite right now, but I don\'t want you to get injured fighting that, logically speaking you can\'t beat that," He looked at her eyes and caressed her head with his previous kind look, which surprised both Alva and Emily.

"I don\'t want any of you to die, even now I love all of you even though I tried to stay away from you and ignore you, it\'s almost impossible for me, please understand,"

They never expected to hear those words right now.

Alva had a hard face unable to decide what to do, but then Emily quickly held her hand and started running in the opposite direction from the wall.

"I will hold her, you don\'t have to worry, do what you have to do,"

Emily thought logically about the situation and no matter how she looked, if they are going to be a burden staying out of the battlefield felt like the best option for them.

"Now, let\'s go and meet my mother-in-law or should I say grandmother-in-law," Taking a closer look at the person, he was going to battle with Nikol walked in her direction and observed her ability.

He noticed her long claws and how they used explosive magic,

"I have to be careful with that, I don\'t know how many skills she might have," Even though, he got dangerously close to her, number one didn\'t react at all showing her full attention was on the wall and breaking it.

Nikol took advantage and kicked her rather hard hoping he would be able to kill her in one shot. but suddenly her head turned in a rather bizarre way and she dodged it like, she had the idea of what was happening around her even though, Nikol\'s speed was incomparable to before.

"Hmm! What a weird creature, I don\'t think this one has the personality or memories of Alva\'s grandmother, it might be just the body," Thinking about what he just witnessed, Nikol got ready for his next attack and tried to kill this transformation before it pulls out something far more nefarious and powerful.

Meanwhile, Eldora kept advancing and noticed the battle happening near the wall and she was able to get a good look at Nikol\'s figure.

"So that was the monster? But looks like it\'s fighting for the sake of humans and elves, maybe it\'s their secret weapon,"

Thinking about ways to overcome this challenge both parties started to form their own plans and emerge victorious as this might be the battle that decided the fate of the races.
