King Raghnall and Merlick quickly rushed out of the tent upon hearing Princess Cordelia's voice. They frowned when they saw the situation outside the tent. Hundreds of magical beasts had surrounded their camp. Some of the soldiers had even started fighting the monsters.

"Lia, how is the current situation?" King Raghnall walked up to Princess Cordelia and asked her. She was currently busy organizing her soldiers.

"Right now, the soldiers of the Cirlus Kingdom can still fight against the hordes of monsters, father. Fortunately, the monsters that came to attack were only low-level magical beasts. In addition, the magic weapons that you developed recently also helped the soldiers in killing the monsters. However, if mid-level magical beats or stronger ones suddenly appeared in groups, maybe our line of defense would be instantly destroyed." Princess Cordelia reported her observations to King Raghnall. She glanced at king Redis behind his father.

"Hmm… then we can only hope that only a horde of low-level magical beasts will attack our camp." King Raghnall nodded and didn't look too worried about the situation in front of him.

Roaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrr!

But that hope was instantly dashed by the sound of a monster's roar echoing through their camp. Another horde of monsters appeared behind the flock of low-level magical beasts. The magical beasts that appeared this time were mid-level mixed with high-level. The faces of the soldiers on the front line turned pale after the appearance of the monsters.

"The mages help the soldiers who are fighting at the front! Fire your strongest ranged magic at that newly appeared magical beast horde!" Princess Cordelia began to reorganize her strategy. She didn't want any of his soldiers to die in that fight. Then Princess Cordelia looked at Merlick next to King Raghnall.

"Mr. Merlick, can the academy teachers help us fight the magical beast horde that just appeared?" Princess Cordelia intends to bow her head to Merlick. She didn't care if she had to lower her head if she could help her soldiers.

"You don't have to do that. We do mean to help." Merlick smiled and stopped Princess Cordelia from lowering her head. Then he looked at Flavio and the other teachers.

"Can you help them?" Merlick didn't order them but asked the teachers what they thought.

"Of course, we can! Just leave it all to us, Princess Cordelia! We won't let those monsters do as they please!" Flavio quickly answered Merlick's question. He looks the most enthusiastic among the other teachers. He wanted to get Princess Cordelia's attention by doing so. Kalya and the other teachers couldn't do anything about his behavior. They could only nod in response to the request from Princess Cordelia.

"Okay. you can go now!" Merlick can only give his orders after all the teachers agree.

Kalya and the other teachers spread out to all corners of the camp to help the soldiers of the Cirlus Kingdom fight the magical beast hordes that had just appeared. Flavio and the other teachers easily killed low and mid-level magical beasts. For high-level magical beasts, they could defeat it with minimal effort.<br/><script>ChapterMid();</script>

Princess Cordelia could breathe a sigh of relief after seeing the battlefield situation becoming more favorable for them. She was grateful she didn't have to send the academy students to suppress the monsters. Currently, she intends to join the fight on the front lines. But Merlick's scream made her frown.

"Academy students will help the soldiers against hordes of low-level magical beasts! For mid-level and high-level will be the opponent for the teachers! If you feel you are in a dangerous situation, you can back off immediately. Do you understand!?" Merlick shouted at the students behind him.

"We got it!" The students answered in unison. Most of them were excited about the fight. They quickly spread out and helped the soldiers fight the monsters on the front line. After joining forces, not a single monster had reached their camp yet.

"Mr. Merlick! Isn't it dangerous to let the students advance into the battlefield?" Princess Cordelia questioned Merlick's decision.

"They enter the academy to fight. What do you have to worry about?" King Redis answered Princess Cordelia's question before Merlick could say anything. This made Princess Cordelia unhappy.

"I already knew about it. However, they were only about six months into the academy, and here was the real battlefield! You should know that magical beasts sometimes fight in groups, and it is very dangerous for the safety of the students!" Princess Cordelia raises her voice to King Redis.

"Lia..." King Raghnall tried to reprimand his daughter, but Princess Cordelia ignored him.

"What makes you angry like that little girl? If you're afraid they're in danger, you can fight while protecting them. After all, this is their principal's decision. You're mistaken if you have to be angry with me." King Redis is not angry with Princess Cordelia. He assumed Princess Cordelia's words earlier came from children and didn't respond to them.

On the other hand, Prince Viron watched Princess Cordelia from top to bottom. Princess Irene was annoyed with her brother's behavior. Meanwhile, Princess Cordelia felt Prince Viron's gaze and snorted disdainfully at him.

"What King Redis has said is true. I purposely dropped the students into the real battlefield to quickly adapt to the actual battle. Be it against monsters or fellow humans. However, their safety remains my priority. I will intervene directly when they are in danger." Merlick explained Princess Cordelia.

"I understand! Then I will help the soldiers and academy students!" Princess Cordelia became calmer after hearing Merlick's explanation. Then she lowered his head to Merlick and dashed into the battlefield.

"Disrespectful child." King Redis grumbled after seeing Princess Cordelia leave. His voice was loud enough for those around him to hear, but no one responded.

***

Princess Cordelia was fighting monsters while watching over the academy students. She saw Clara and Princess Iris fighting together.

[Ice Thorn]

A vine made of ice suddenly appeared from the ground. The plant wrapped around the bodies of several magical beasts at once and locked their movements. Not stopping there, Not stopping there, the vines let out sharp thorns and pierced the monster's body.

Roaaaaaaaaaaaaarrr!

The monsters screamed in pain. But the attack wasn't finished yet because Princess Iris added another attack to the monsters.

[Night Blade]

Jet-black mana blades shot at the magical beasts, sliced them into pieces, and instantly turned them into minced meat. Princess Cordelia was taken aback by the combined attacks of the two girls.

"Amazing! They looked weak on the outside, but they had quite formidable abilities for a mage of their age. What's more, their cooperation is very compact, and it seems I underestimated the abilities of the academy students too much." Princess Cordelia muttered in admiration after seeing Princess Iris and Clara's fight. But suddenly, her face became tense because there was a magical beast with high speed approaching Princess Iris and Clara.

"Ooh, no! It was a mid-level magical beast, Lightning Seahorse! They are in danger!" Princess Cordelia saw a seahorse monster moving at a very high speed. The monster's body was shrouded in lightning and had extremely sharp teeth to kill its prey in silence.

The Lightning Seahorse quickly drew near to Princess Iris and Clara. Princess Cordelia felt that she would never be able to save them. Princess Cordelia glanced at Merlick at the camp, but she didn't seem to notice the Lightning Seahorse's presence because the monster was moving so fast.

The monster was already right behind Princess Iris and Clara. When Lightning Seahorse opened its jaw, Princess Cordelia saw a beam of red light shoot and pierce through the monster's forehead. Lightning Seahorse died instantly.

Princess Cordelia could only freeze where she was standing. But she quickly returned to her senses and spotted the red light with her eyes. She saw a red light as a small snake with a body covered in red lightning that kept roaming the battlefield without anyone noticing. The little red snake killed mid and high-level magical beasts silently. Otherwise, the red snake would only injure the monster's vital parts to keep it from moving, and the teachers or soldiers could easily kill the beast.

Princess Cordelia fought the magical beasts while continuously observing the movement of the red snake. One by one, the monsters keep falling without anyone knowing the cause. Princess Cordelia has to keep helping the academy students because it looks like the red snake isn't helping all the students. The red snake only moves around certain people. After Princess Cordelia took a closer look, the people the snake was protecting were the girls she recognized by face. They are Clara, Princess Iris, Princess Freya, and Princess Aishia.

Princess Cordelia raised her eyebrows because she had just realized something. She began to trace the origin of the red snake. After struggling to find it, Princess Cordelia finally found the person who controlled the red snakes. As expected, a boy with black hair handled the red snake with his fingertips like he was playing with a doll. Every time his finger moves, a magical beast will die. The boy that Princess Cordelia is looking at right now is Ziel.

Ziel fought with the sword while controlling the five red snakes stealthily. The red snake was another version of his 'Thunder Beam' skill that he could control at will. He calmly watched the situation around him. Ziel focuses mainly on Clara, Princess Iris, Princess Freya, and Princess Aishia. As for Kalya, Ziel believes she can take care of herself if she only fights high-level magical beasts. After all, Kalya has Ziel's artifact with her.

Princess Cordelia secretly admires Ziel's smooth sword movement even though it looks a bit rough. But then she remembers Ziel's fight with Leviathan and finds out that his current fighting style is fake. When Princess Cordelia was too focused on paying attention to him, Ziel suddenly turned his gaze to her, and their eyes met.

"Eh!?" Princess Cordelia didn't know what to do because she was caught red-handed by Ziel while she was observing him. She thought Ziel would be angry with her, but she was wrong. Ziel's eyes only glanced at her briefly and returned to focus on the battlefield situation.

"Luckily, he didn't mind it. I better focus on the other students and not stay in this place. I'm afraid he will change his mind." Princess Cordelia quickly left the place while helping the students from the academy who seemed to be in danger.

Elsewhere, King Raghnall and Merlick also oversaw the fight between the Cirlus Kingdom's soldiers and the magical beast horde. A single soldier did not accompany them because that was their request. King Raghnall asked all the soldiers to help fight the hordes of monsters.

King Redis and his family were also watching the academy students' battles, especially the heroes' battles.

(Wonderful! I didn't expect Clara and Princess Iris to be that strong. Their collaboration is great too! The other girls are just as great as them!)

Princess Irene became excited after seeing Clara and Princess Iris fight. She watched her friends fight while clenching her fists and wished she could join them in fighting.

"Hmm… why do I feel this level of combat is so easy for the soldiers of the Cirlus Kingdom? Even though they were assisted by the teachers and students of the academy, there were at least hundreds of mid and high-level magical beasts. But they seem to have easily eliminated those monsters." King Raghnall stroked his chin while observing the fight between his soldiers and the hordes of monsters. He had felt something strange ever since the academy students had joined the fight.

"It might just be your feelings or maybe the students who have grown to the point of being able to defeat those monsters easily." Merlick smiled broadly as his plan to make the students adapt to the real battlefield situation was going smoothly.

"I thought they were just lucky, and those monsters were just weak monsters." King Redis suddenly entered into their conversation.

"Isn't there a saying that luck is also strength?" Merlick calmly answered King Redis's sarcastic remark.

"Hmph!" King Redis could only snort in response to Merlick's answer.

Not long after that, the clouds grew thicker and more lightning struck the land. The soldiers and students who were fighting looked up at the sky. They saw someone emerge from the lightning cloud and look like a God of Thunder descending to the Clorius continent.

"I didn't expect you to be able to take care of my research object so well. You even killed half of them. Are you ready to accept the consequences for what you have done?" Fornius' angry voice echoed in the sky of their camp and made the soldiers of the Cirlus Kingdom who heard it tremble.
