Lia entered a peak S-rank dungeon recreating the siege of Kenorland, where a human army led by S-ranker Nine invaded the fairy city, targeting its temple and artifacts. A demon army under S-rank Trnak soon arrived through a portal, turning the assault into a three-way conflict. Disguised as a royal fairy, Lia resolved to fight alongside the fairies, summoning silver armor and declaring herself the Empress of War, igniting chaotic battle as humans, demons, and fairies clashed amid colliding mana and miasma.

In an age where countless races clashed fiercely on a regular basis, it was typical for top leaders from these races to confront entire armies directly.

Demons, elves, fairies, dragons, and more—numerous races across the world were guided by royal families and kings, the strongest beings among them.

Though humans lacked such traditions, in this turbulent era, raw power commanded utmost respect.

Demons themselves honored royal demons, and even though Lia ranked one level below them, neither Trnak nor Nine dared to belittle her.

Both were seasoned S-rankers with vast battlefield experience; they understood perfectly that no royal family member from any race could be considered ’normal.’

No matter if the opponent appeared weaker in rank or brute force, royals always possessed potent secret abilities and aces hidden away; underestimating them was a fatal mistake.

This awareness explained why Nine and Trnak both showed Lia proper respect before launching the assault!

The task of wiping out the common fairies and their nature temple had seemed simple at first, yet Lia’s arrival transformed everything.

Nine and Trnak refused to disregard Lia, and as mutual foes, they couldn’t ally together either, promising a wildly disordered fight that all recognized.

Lia thrust her sword skyward, twisting the weather to suit her whims.

Vast skies darkened under clouds of packed elementals, unleashing a barrage of hardened water and wind spears across the whole battlefield!

Beyond boosting wind and water elementals nearby, this onslaught slaughtered hundreds of lesser demons and humans!

Hell seemed to rip open into the world; Lia’s strikes, each matching an A-ranker's maximum power, pummeled everything within dozens of kilometers!

Massive pits erupted like grenade blasts wherever the spears struck, hurling dust and rubble everywhere.

Witnessing the chaos, Nine tsked and propelled himself at Lia, kicking off the air as his launchpad.

A battle-hardened martial expert, Nine had forged his unique martial technique and boasted extraordinary earth elemental affinity!

His palm strike mimicked destabilizing a mountain’s core to trigger avalanches and collapses, channeling thick mana that pierced even sturdiest armors to ravage the wearer with minimal loss!

"Too Slow..."

Lia ignored her sword for defense against Nine’s palm; a casual hand flick diverted his charge aside, sending the blow astray!

Her wrist armor soaked up every leftover force and harm, leaving her body utterly unscathed.

"Wha!?"

Stunned beyond reaction, Nine skipped guarding and took Lia’s stomach kick full-on, hurled back with staggering might.

Crashing like a meteor, his form gouged a huge crater on impact, scattering debris that wounded more nearby humans and demons!

Golden eyes gleamed with silver luster through her helmet’s slits.

As she spoke, Lia lifted her sword and aimed it precisely elsewhere.

A corruption-coated arrow thick with miasma struck Lia’s sword tip and fragmented, sparking a huge mid-air miasmic blast.

Trnak had loosed it while Lia appeared occupied battling Nine, yet her foresight let her anticipate its path effortlessly, blocking without a glance.

Miasmic fog billowed from the blast, seeking to taint Lia’s silver armor, but vast spirit magic, mana, and light elementals surged at her sword’s point first.

A colossal silver light beam erupted toward Trnak, vaporizing surrounding miasma, erasing every monster and demon in its path.

Trnak, no mere fodder like prior demons Lia felled, was a demon army’s battle-tested general; as the beam launched, he yanked an artifact from his space ring!

This artifact resembled a large mirror, and upon striking it, the beam ricocheted at thirty degrees right into the human forces!

The charging electromagnetic cannon exploded violently, shredding hundreds nearby, their guts spraying across the zone.

Gathering immense divine spirit magic, Lia produced a top-tier light elemental crystal from her space ring and infused it with purification spirit magic!

The premium crystal shattered into powder, birthing a spreading fog wave radiating from Lia outward.

Like deploying a chemical agent, any demon brushing this fog ignited and crumbled to ash rapidly.

Even humans grazed by it suffered cells aflame from the intense light elements and surging energy.

Such fog posed little threat to a mighty demon like Trnak, but it served as Lia’s debuff against him, offsetting the curses both armies inflicted on her.
