As the citizens looked in horror at the scene, the soldiers inside the city went into a panic. The capital was invaded. They ended up reacting a bit too late, as Ellie had already made her way deep into the city.

"DO NOT LET HER GET AWAY!" one of the army leaders, stationed inside the city, shouted as he realized the peril they were in. But, it was too late. One thing that the Beastmen army had done badly, was to leave the strong ones out of the loop. Only low ranking cultivators headed to intercept Ellie's army, while the strong ones were stationed elsewhere.

"As if you can catch up!" Ellie turned around and made a funny face towards the soldier, as he pulled on her lower eyelid and stuck her tongue out. She flew a bit higher and increased her flight speed, leaving a sonic boom after her. Her target was the castle build on a high ground in the middle of the capital. Ellie failed to notice the group of eyes locked on her. They weren't enemies but simply a gallery of people gazing at her familiar figure. Some of them had tears in their eyes. They were the citizens of the capital. And they all recognized the boisterous problem child, Ellie.

"Wait for me, Gazef!" Ellie mumbled to herself as she let a trail of QI behind her.

The soldiers outside of the city didn't know what to do. They were able to hold on for so long, only because the enemies couldn't reach the wall. But now, Ellie passed all of them, and they couldn't do anything. Also, because of Becky's unprecedented growth during the war, she started to pressure them even more. None of the Beastmen soldiers were able to pressure their enemy. The difference in morale and goals was far greater than they could handle.

"Elder Audun, I will follow after Ellie now. I'm certain that other enemies are inside, so she'll need all the help she can get." Eric joined up with Audun's army and told him his plan.

"I understand. I'll take care of both armies and take down the soldiers here. I'll join you if I can later, so just focus on your goal for now." Just as Audun finished speaking, Eric left his horse to one of the soldiers as he flew up in the sky.

"Shoot him! Don't let anyone else get inside the walls!" Seeing Eric's movements, many soldiers and archers switched their focus to him.

"Are you sure you can spare me your attention? I'm quite strong you know? You will need a whole army to stop me from entering!" The soldiers shrunk back as they heard Eric's confident claim. In fact, they had seen him smash and slash through their allies since the war began.

Some Beastmen that could fly hurried up and tried to block Eric's way. However, a single swing of his sword was enough to put them to rest. Eric flew over the walls, sending those that saw his act into panic once again. The citizens this time weren't as calm, as the person that invaded them this time was not familiar. However, they were astonished as Eric ignored them, and didn't even try to kill anyone of them.

He spotted Ellie's figure, currently engaged in combat with five figures.

'I knew it…' Eric thought to himself as he flew at maximum speed. The soldiers following after him were blown away by the force generated by his accelerations. He closed in on Ellie's position and the ones fighting her noticed him and backed away.

"Are you okay?" Eric asked Ellie as he studied her state. He couldn't see any wounds on her body, but it was better to ask.

"Yeah, I barely started to fight them after all."

"Who are they?" Eric asked as he checked his opponents. The five of them seemed to be on the older side, and they all carried themselves with dignity. On top of that, their cultivation ranged from Heavenly Establishment level 10 to Immortal level 4.

Starting from the left, Eric could see a beastman whose features looked similar to a mole. His long nails and pointy nose seemed especially like one. The one next to him had wolf ears and a bushy grey tail. His canines were grinding against each other as he looked at Ellie and Eric. The central one was the strongest out of them, and he looked like a bulky leopard, with a spotted skin and a thin long tail. He had a calm look in his face as if he was undisturbed by the things happening near the capital.

The next person was a lady with eagle wings and bright yellow eyes. She seemed to follow every movement happening in her surroundings, going as far as reading the lips of Ellie and Eric. The last one was a gorilla beastman. He looked no different from a regular gorilla, except the fact that his face resembled humans.

"They are the five royal guards. I was wondering where they were, but it turns out that they never left the castle. I guess the king didn't allow them to leave his side, as he was afraid of us." Ellie explained.

"I guess it's their existence that convinced Blood sect to ally with them," Eric mumbled as he looked at the five of them. "Anyway, no need to waste time. You go ahead and I'll handle them. Don't be annoying and say that you will stay here to fight them, go and kill that king." Eric told Ellie as he brandished his sword.

"I'll leave it to you then." Ellie rushed away in a hurry towards the castle under them. The eagle lady flapped her wings, and in an instant, she was next to Ellie. Yet, Ellie didn't even look at her.

"You're too arrogant, little girl!" She said as she slashed with her razor-sharp wings.

"Weren't you reading out lips? Didn't you see me say that I will handle all of you? Isn't that reason enough for her not to pay you any heed?" Eric dropped three consecutive questions as he threw the eagle lady away after clashing with her. The eagle lady was quite fast, and yet Eric was able to catch up to her. This alone caused the five guardians to put their guard up.

"Five opponents…Same as Ed last time. Let me show you the tradition of the Avalon princes!" Eric said as his QI blew out of his body.
