"Be careful, everyone; if I am not mistaken, the demon and all of his minions have received a power boost. More importantly, the number of these minions has grown.
The situation has become dangerous, and we must proceed with extreme caution. We must give our all to hold them back."
One warrior says it, and everyone agrees. Anyone can tell that the demon's power has grown along with its appearance.
Previously, that demon had a humanoid shape with a boar head. However, you cannot currently call this a humanoid appearance.
The color of the demon has already changed, and it now has four hands. Two horns emerged from his forehead.
The demon's entire body is covered in some sort of shell. Most importantly, the demon's aura has become dangerous.
The aura of the demon is enough to make the remaining warriors of the Warriors Association give up hope.
They all know they will be unable to fight that demon. Other than that, the demon is not alone. The number of these Dullhounds has already risen.
Even though all of those Dullhounds are of the Mortal Grade, their sheer number has already made the situation dangerous for the remaining members of the Warriors' Association.
If Sam had been here, he would have realized what was going on. The same thing happened in the main story, even though the setting was different.
Sam had been concerned about this situation since the beginning. This is also why he wanted to help the Warriors of the Warrior Association in any situation.
As you can see, the sudden power boost of the demons and his minions was linked to those from the Dark Association.
The remaining warriors of the Warriors Association realize that the presence of those from the Dark Association has already vanished from the danger zone.
Many of them believe that the members of the Dark Association have already fled that location.
Unfortunately, they were not aware of the truth. Except for the leader, all of the remaining members of the Dark Association have sacrificed their lives to increase the demon's power and the number of Dullhounds.
Only one of them remains in that location, but he is not there. He is concealing himself. He is also responsible for David and the others' previous base being attacked by so many Dullhounds.
Back to the main topic,
Warriors from the Warrior Association have already begun to give their all against the demon.
Unfortunately, that demon did not even move from his position. More importantly, the demon did not even consider them serious.
Those Warriors from the Warriors Association become preoccupied with protecting themselves from the demon's incoming attacks, as well as the attacks of those Dullhounds.
They are already losing hope for survival. Even with their determination, they know they will not be able to defeat the demon.
They can only attempt to reduce the number of Dullhounds.
The Warriors of the Warrior Association have already accepted their fate and are simply waiting for their death.
But they never expected such a situation to occur in that location. Suddenly, all of the Warriors from the Warriors Association begin to shine brightly.
Everyone thought they were going to die because that demon had attacked them.
But the next second, everyone realized that was not the issue. Because everyone starts to feel better and their spiritual energy begins to return.
It did not end there; they soon realized that their power and energy were increasing.
Even injured Warriors who have lost their ability to fight back face the same situation. They regain the strength to fight back, and more importantly, their strength and energy continue to increase.
What is going on?
Everyone has this question, but no one knows the answer. One thing is certain: this is not the work of the demon. That demon is also taken aback by the sudden turn of events.
It looked at them, curious as to what was going on.
"Attack!!!!"
This is an excellent opportunity for members of the Warrior Association to counter-attack.
They have no idea what happened to them, but they know they have grown stronger, and now is the time to kill those minions and, if possible, that demon.
However, not everyone chose to attack the demon and the Dullhounds. They did not forget that their top priority is to protect the participants.
So 5 warriors are looking for those participants.
The remaining Warriors have already begun to unleash their full power against that demon and those Dullhounds.
****************
Inside the cave,
Everyone, including Sam, is resting. A group of students went outside to check on the surrounding area.
Sam takes advantage of the opportunity and buys both the power amplifier and the search scroll. As expected, the search scroll assisted him in locating the Warriors of the Warrior Association.
He no longer had to be concerned about increasing the demon's power. He only selected Warriors from the Warriors Association one at a time, and then he used the power amplifier.
"I hope this is enough for them to survive that demon and stop it until the saints do not break through the barrier."
Sam just hopes so.
The next moment,
"Guys!!!!! More strange Monsters are coming our way. More importantly, they are stronger than before."
The Scout team rushes inside the cave and immediately warns everyone of the impending danger.
When they provide them with the information, the atmosphere inside the cave changes. David and everyone grab their weapons and rise from the ground.
They are all prepared to fight back again. On the other hand, when the scout team announces the impending danger, many of those people start trembling.
Those people lacked the ability to fight back. The situation has already made them fearful.
Naturally, despite David's best efforts, he is unable to motivate everyone to fight back. So David and the others decided to forget about those people and slowly approach the cave's entrance.
They can not back down. If they wanted to survive, they needed to fight back under any circumstances. It would be incorrect to say that they are not afraid. But, other than fighting, they had no other option.
