Wolf of the Blood Moon: A Blood Magic-Chapter 34Book 5: : Truce

Scarlet

Silence fills the battlefield, making me glance downwards from the Clan Demon in front of me to find all of the demons on the battlefield suddenly no longer moving. Except the ones fighting the Red Plague, that is. Theyre still trying to push it back and get rid of it.

The rest of the demons all act as if theyve been snapped out of some trance though.

I really did it. I broke the curse on all of the demons, at least on Earth. I dont think I managed to do anything about the demons on Tartarus, unfortunately.

Id have to actually go to Tartarus to do that.

And Im sure Gramps will get the message when I break his curse along with the rest on Tartarus.

All because of the Red Plague

I smile at that thought, realizing it does have some good other than its pure power after all.

My thoughts are interrupted when howls, roars, shouts, and cheers of all kind echo around the entire frontlines. Then a single voice echoes out over them all, belonging to the man right next to me.

Attention all demons currently on Earth! The Warden of the Red Plague, Princess of the Demons, Apex Predator, and Bane of Corruption has managed to erase the curse that has been terrorizing us demons for ages! She has rid us all of the curse and brought us true peace for the first times in our lives!!!

I find myself surprised by how enthusiastic Damien is being, considering how he was just moments ago. Then he turns to me and kneels midair, surprising me for just a second as he declares, Your Highness, I swear myself to you now and forever. I will be your knight, your shield, and your sword should you make use of me.

He raises his head, showing a grin on his undead face that is the complete opposite of his face before.

And its not just him. Soon enough, demons all around the frontlines are abandoning the battlefield to fly up here and bow before me, reciting very similar lines.

I hurriedly glance down at the Red Plague before shouting, Wait, please, lets deal with the problem at hand first!

Everyone blinks before the demons look down at the Red Plague that is starting to gain a little ground again.

Oh, right, Damien mutters and flies down to start erasing parts of it with miasma. And I quickly join him, restoring the mana that I spent on nullifying the curse through the Red Plague Im absorbing. And gaining levels as I do so.

By the time we deal with all of the Red Plague, Ive already hit level 1220, which seems to surprise more than a few of the demons and humans around me.

Not as surprised as I am to hear another voice echoing throughout the frontlines. A voice that isnt even supposed to be here. Meaning shes probably talking to us from somewhere on Tartarus.

Attention all demons on Earth, according to the order left to me by His Majesty before he entered seclusion, now that the Princess has shown to be able to remove the curse completely on all demons, we are pulling back, Lily del Roses voice echoes all over. And I can tell its not just the battlefield, cause I can hear it with my strong hearing all over. As if the words are echoing wherever demons are on Earth. You will all retreat to Demon Isle and the Arctic Gates and stay guard there until His Majesty leaves seclusion and is able to give new orders.

I smile a little when I hear the next sentence she utters, along with the silence after it.

From here on out, we will be entering peace talks with the humans.

For the first time ever, absolute silence fills the entire frontlines. Not a single person saying a word, or even moving.

Not a one.

Then cheers immediately ring out from both sides.

My smile grows a little more as I float high above everyone with the Knights all appearing near me, the other Knights apparently no longer being busy now that the demons have been called off from their attack. And all of them look happy.

Even Purple is here.

Meanwhile every last Noble demon on the frontlines moves over beneath me and kneels down, with a third of them swearing fealty to me now. Instead of gramps.

Didnt know they could do that, but I get the feeling it doesnt stop them from having to obey gramps orders.

To my surprise, I sense a familiar power edging in on the frontlines, making me glance to the side to find Satan arriving. And the man has a wide smile on his face despite the wounds on his body. Which dont number as many as Red has, making me understand where those two were.

Soon enough Satan approaches me, joining Damien in the whole kneeling down midair thing that theyre doing. And then all of the other demons on the frontlines do the same thing, except without the flying part. Since most of them cant fly.

Which leaves me staring at a massive army of millions of demons, all bowing.

I cant help but furrow my brow at the sight of the demons even forcing the non-sapient demons to bow as well.

The humans begin to grow quiet and confused at the sight of every last demon kneeling down with their heads facing the ground. Or at least, kneeling down in whatever way they can, considering that most of them dont actually have humanoid forms.

And after several seconds of absolute silence filling the battlefield, a single collective and simultaneous sentence rings out throughout the entire battlefield.

Thank you, Your Highness, for saving us from our curse. You will forever be the Royal we serve, the Moon we follow, and the Warden we trust in. The Apex Predator, our Savior, and our Princess.

I start to feel my face heating up slightly as I wasnt prepared for that, but I just smile and give all of them a single light wave of my hand.

And out of the corner of my eye, I spot cameras from the humans side flashing, recording and taking pictures of the whole thing.

Tar even appears and lands on my shoulder during the middle of it.

Looks like weve got one obstacle out of the way, he comments, making me nod my head in silence.

Now we just have to deal with the void creatures.
