But right before that sword could touch her, there was an arrow that fell down.


    This arrow pierced right through the chest of this demon and pinned him down onto the ground.


    The force of this arrow pushed him back and the sword was pulled away with him before he could swing it down on Cecilia.


    Cecilia was caught off guard by this sudden arrow falling down, but then she turned back to give Moon an appreciative nod.


    Moon gave a nod back before turning her eyes to look at the demonmander.


    Cecilia saw this and also turned to focus on the demonmander.


    The demonmander had taken the sword from another demon and was now back to facing them.


    But this time, there was a wariness to him that they hadn''t seen before.


    As for the target of this wariness…it wasn''t either Cecilia or Moon, but rather the strange looking sword in Cecilia''s hand.


    He was able to tell that it was all because of this strange looking sword that Cecilia was able to show that kind of power. So if he was able to avoid this sword, he shouldn''t suffer like he had done just now.


    As he started moving forward, there was a ck energy that suddenly surrounded the demonmander.


    Neither Moon or Cecilia knew what this was, but they could tell that this thing was dangerous.


    So they could only watch to see what the demonmander nned to do.


    The ck energy swirled around the demonmander before suddenly…entering the demonmander''s body.


    After it entered the demonmander''s body, the already dark skin of the demonmander turned even darker. At the same time, there were these dark veins that suddenly popped out on the demonmander''s skin.


    It was almost as if there was something that was moving around under the demonmander''s skin.


    But the pressure that the demonmander released suddenly became much stronger at the same time.


    There was also this wild look that appeared on his face that was different from the calm look that he usually had.


    However, the demonmander didn''t move as he just stood there.


    It was almost as if he was adjusting to this new state that he had entered.


    At the same time, the other demons started moving away from him as if they were getting out of his way. But when one looked closely, they could see the traces of fear in their eyes.


    After he finished adjusting to the state that he had entered, the demonmander let out a long breath.


    There was even something that was dark about the breath that he let out…it was simr to the dark energy that had entered his body.


    The demonmander didn''t say a word as his eyes immediately fell onto Cecilia.


    Then before anyone could react, the demonmander suddenly dashed forward, disappearing from sight.


    When he appeared again, he was right in front of Cecilia already swinging the sword in his hands downwards.


    Cecilia could barely react in time to bring the strange sword in her hand up to block it, but she was mmed down into the ground by the force of this swing. The sword of the demonmander was just a few inches from her neck and the only thing stopping it was the sword in her hand.


    But the strength that came from the demonmander…it was just too much for her to handle.


    Slowly but surely, the sword of the demonmander wasing closer and closer to her neck.


    If nothing was done, she would be cut down by the demonmander.


    The other knights wanted to help, but they were suddenly met with an onught of magic.


    The demons that had been gathering their mana had finally finished and they were shooting their spells at the knight to keep them away from the demonmander. The knights had no choice but to back down since they couldn''t push through these spells at all.


    It seemed more and more likely that the demonmander would be able to cut off Cecilia''s head like this.


    But then, the demonmander suddenly stopped.


    He immediately got off Cecilia and jumped back, avoiding the arrow that had fallen out of the sky.


    However, he didn''t stop afternding.


    That was because there were three more arrows that hadnded consecutively where he had been standing previously.


    These three arrows pushed the demonmander all the way back to where he had been standing before.


    Then after that, there was a barrage of spells that came from the elves that covered the knights as they helped bring Cecilia over to the position that the elves had been holding.


    When they came back, the elves quickly came forward to see to the wounds of the knights. They knew that they had to depend on the knights to hold the line, so they put aside any feelings they had about them being different races and helped heal them with magic.


    But the knights were mostly fine because these had been low level spells cast to help cover the demonmander.


    They weren''t hurt that badly by them.


    When Cecilia was brought over, I quickly went forward to look at her wounds, but she was fine as well. She had only been caught off guard and there was only a small wound at her neck, but The Prator had blocked most of the damage for her.


    Moon also came over with a serious look on her face.


    After a bit of silence, she turned to the two blonde elves and said, "Iris, Lily,e over here."


    The two blonde elves came over with a confused look on their face, but that look of confusion quickly changed to a look of shock when they heard what Moon told them.


    "Help me cast the buff spells on Cecilia." Moon said in a calm voice.


    But the way that the two blonde elves were looking at her, it was as if she had just suggested something taboo.
