Chapter 295 The Final Battle
6/9
"Breaking news! Breaking news! The fourth apostle, the Decay Demon apostle, has been defeated by the Hero! Kris City, Dandelion Peak, and Tina Plains have all been recaptured by the Alliance Army and returned to human territory!"
The running newsboy loudly announced the good news on the street.
People on both sides scrambled to buy newspapers, most of their faces beaming with joy and pride.
"Lord Hero is so amazing. This is already the fifth apostle to be exterminated, right?"
"Yes, if this momentum continues, we humans will soon be victorious!"

"But I see in the report that Lord Hero only captured these apostles. Why? Wouldn't it be better to kill them directly?"
"Oh, have you forgotten? Hero-sama said that the demon race currently invading and descending upon our world has been deceived by their false king. As long as that false Demon King is killed, the human-demon war can end."
"I heard there are also Demon King rebels on the demon race's side who support Hero-sama. They don't want to fight with us humans either."
"Tsk, I bet they're just pretending to surrender after seeing how powerful Sir. Hero is. If I were the demon race, I would also pledge allegiance to Sir. Hero. Such opportunists can't be trusted at all!"
"That's right, I also think the Hero should be careful of the demon race. Don't be fooled."
"Sigh, the Hero is great in every way, just too soft-hearted. If you ask me, we should exterminate the demon race completely. What alliance?"
"What do you mean? Are you questioning the Hero?"
"No, no, I wouldn't dare..."
"Alright, alright, the war isn't over yet. It's a good thing if the demon race can be internally divided and help us. As for how to deal with the demon race afterwards, I believe the Hero will make the right decision when the time comes!"
Reji didn't choose to directly announce that he had taken care of all the apostles.
After all, this differed too much from history.
So, even though Leo and the other demon race apostles had secretly pledged allegiance, on the surface, they were still symbolically resisting.
However, the results could be seen.
With the apostles going easy, the subsequent human army's counterattack and advance were almost a triumphant march.
One demon race stronghold after another was conquered, and the continuous victories from the front lines also gave the humans in the rear more and more confidence. Many were already preparing to celebrate the victory.
Everyone could see that the demon race was already in decline.
Finally.
With the last occupied area also reclaimed by the human alliance army.
With this, the demon race had completely retreated.
The only remaining territory was the lonely Demon King's Castle, with a bare-bones commander.
The regrouped Hero's army had already set out for the Demon King's Castle.
The horn of the final decisive battle had already sounded.
All the humans in the world were nervous and expectant.
But after Lordan killed the Demon King and slaughtered the succubi, he occupied this place.
And now.
She could finally return here openly again.
Standing in front of this castle.
And this time, she was no longer the little succubus who had to hide and live in discontent and fear every day.
Now they had gathered an army.
With the help of the Hero and humans, they had cleared out the rebel forces under Lordan one by one, and those Wicked Demon Race cadres had all been purged.
Only one last step remained before the demon race's revival.
As long as this place was conquered and Lordan was killed, the great hatred of the Succubus Race would be completely avenged, and the demon race would return to the right path.
Sharing the same mentality as Eileen was also Vielsia.
In the Hero's extermination team this time, one could also see many figures from the Elf Race.
Although the Elf Race also deeply hated the demon race, for the sake of Vielsia and Eileen, the Elf Race had already shifted this hatred to Lordan.
As long as Lordan's faction, the culprit Demon King who had exterminated the Elf Race back then, was eliminated, their Elf Race's hatred would also be avenged.
Eileen also promised the elves later on.
As allies, the demon race would not forget the elves, let alone the help of humans. When she restarted the Demon King Summoning in the future and found a new, true Demon King, the friendship between the three races would last forever.
A very beautiful happy ending.
Just like that.
With this vision of the future, the soldiers broke through the gates of the Demon King's Castle and charged in bravely.
The defenses inside the castle were simpler and more fragile than imagined.
It seemed that even Lordan had given up resistance.
They almost reached the Demon King's Hall without much obstruction. In the great hall, Lordan did not flee either, just sitting on the throne, quietly watching them.
On one side was the Hero plus the Saintess, as well as Eileen and the apostles.
On the other side, there was only the lonely Lordan.
With such a disparity in combat power, there was no need to fight.
As if in a dying struggle, Lordan's body swelled, and he burst up from the throne, taking the initiative, his aura soaring to the peak, directly attacking the Hero.
The Hero was fearless, holding the holy sword, going head-to-head with the Demon King.
However, the battle ended even faster than imagined.
Lordan, who was in the mindset of a final struggle, actually had no intention of clashing head-on with the Hero at all. Instead, after luring the Hero to also attack, he smiled evilly.
Bang!
The Wicked Demon's swollen body suddenly exploded. No one had expected that Lordan would actually transform his entire body into a magic bomb. The surging impact instantly swept through the entire Demon King's Castle.
