An hour after Nyarlathotep's Abominations marched towards the city, a quarter of the Elven Kingdom had already fallen.
Despite everyone's desperate attempts to defend the city and its people, they were simply too weakened to resist the unending wave of Monsters, who let out a creepy laugh every time they killed and ate someone.
These synchronized laughter made the hearts of anyone who heard it shudder, further lowering the morale of the army.
In the end, Nyarlathotep used its power to manipulate the dark emotions of everyone, causing them to enter a berserk state, not caring whether they attacked friend or foe.contemporary romance
Fortunately, Jay Jatere was quick to counter Nyarlathotep's scheme, returning the sanity of the affected people.
But in the end, that didn't change anything.
Their weakened minds were unable to overcome the fear and despair that they were facing.
Soon, these Defenders started to run away from the frontlines, causing a domino effect to happen.
"I don't want to die!" one of the Elves shouted as he ran away with all of his might, causing his comrades to look at him in disbelief.
But at the same time, they also understood that this battle was hopeless.
Even if they fought, death would still claim them in the end, so why even bother fighting?
This mentality gripped the Soldiers, and one by one, they fled the battlefield, making the Elven King shout in anger.
However, no matter how loud, King Kazimir shouted, and no matter how much he tried to rally his people, once the fear had taken root in their hearts, there was no way to stop its growth.
The Dragon Borns, who had earlier helped in fighting against the Golden Abominations, returned to their Floating Islands in the hope that they could escape the death and destruction that was happening below them.
There were still many people who hadn't left their homes, hoping beyond hope that the Monsters wouldn't be able to find them.
But this was just the foolishness of those who refused to look at reality.
All throughout the streets of the city, countless Elves, Humans, and other races were running desperately to find a safe place to hide.
Behind them, the Golden Abominations let out their eerie laughs as if they were enjoying this game of hide and seek while pushing their prey to the edge of despair, causing them to go crazy.
One such Abomination stripped the roof off an Elven House and looked at the mother and child who were huddling together.
"Mother, I'm scared!" a five-year-old girl cried in her mother's embrace.
"It will be alright," the mother replied with tears streaming down her eyes, as she held her child in a protective embrace. "We will always be together. Mother will always be with you."
Using her body as a shield, the Elf Lady hugged her child tightly.
Seeing that its prey didn't plan to escape, the Golden Abomination chuckled before opening its mouth to feast on fresh meat that was filled with the flavor of fear.
But just as it was about to have its meal, something fell on top of its head and pierced its body with a black blade.
A knight covered in black armor from head to foot twisted the sword in his hands before pulling it out of the Golden Abomination, who collapsed on the ground dead.
The Black Knight's cape fluttered in the wind as it glanced at the mother and daughter pair.
With a snap of its finger, two Doomknight Gangbangers rose up to carry the mother and child to safety.
Suddenly, despite the loud cries of the desperate people and the laughter of the Golden Abominations, a firm and powerful voice reverberated in the surroundings, making Nyarlathotep look to the Eastern Side of the City.
"I see things others can't."
The blazing flames that were starting to ravage the city suddenly parted, revealing a young man who was walking as if he were just taking a casual stroll in the park.
"Hear things others don't."
The sound of warcries, curses, and dying screams spread across the entire city as the invaders mercilessly attacked anything and everything in their path.
However, things started to stir from the shadows, and those who had fallen rose up again, not as Abominations, but as Greater Undead who lunged at their killers and fought them tooth and nail.
"Shed tears when others won't."
"And fight when others don't."
The sound of babies and children wailing in their mother's arms could be heard everywhere as their parents desperately looked for a safe place to hide in order to save themselves from the one-sided massacre that was taking place around them.
The Monsters that were preying on these helpless people suddenly found themselves getting smashed by the spiked mace of one of the most grotesque-looking creatures in the world, and yet, also possessed one of the kindest hearts among the young man's subordinates.
The same abomination sent flying earlier was turned to meat paste by a powerful smash from the Four-Armed Hero, who had a permanent devilish sneer plastered on its face.
"Have no fear!" Pazuzu shouted with his spiked mace raised high.
"I AM HERE!" ALL-MITE declared before charging at another Monster and smashing it to oblivion.
All around the city, countless Undead Warriors started to rise and engage the Golden Abominations who had been having the time of their lives earlier.
Now, they faced not only the Undead Army that appeared out of nowhere but also the people they had just killed.
Their eyes glowed red with the color of vengeance.
"I seek the Monsters you fear the most," the Half-Elf said softly as he raised his hand, summoning countless Undead to fight for his side. "I chase the nightmares that plague your sweetest dreams."
Countless men and women ran past him as they engaged the Monster Army which was now starting to feel a pressure rooted in their primal instinct.
"I walk in the darkness so that others may see the light. I fight the creatures that threaten this world with all my might."
A giant bone dragon landed in front of the Half-Elf and bowed its head in respect. The Half-Elf patted its head before jumping on its back, preparing to fight alongside his Undead Legion.
With one mighty flap of his tattered wings, Avernus soared toward the sky and uttered a deafening roar of defiance. Lux stood straight on his back like a sword, looking at the countless Monsters that were slowly advancing in his direction.
"In a world where my existence has long been forgotten…" The Half-Elf stated as his bone dragon opened his mouth to unleash its Dragon Breath.
"I will let you know the error of the path you have trodden!"
