Chapitre 524: Just like the first time

Things had been going wrong ever since Natha came to visit the warzone.

The Lord of Wrath had been especially stubborn, but not because he was rebelling against Natha or anything. Natha could tell from the Lord's thoughts that someone was riling the Lord, baiting his ego and fueling his annoyance. He wanted to bulldoze through the border straight to the palace, to crush the humans who kept on taunting him about how he could do anything against the Goddess's protection.

It was particularly annoying because the humans sent such taunts from afar while hiding behind the magicians.

It was hard even for Natha to convince the young Lord to not go overboard and lose his fighters uselessly like the previous Lord. It took hours and hours of conversation, back and forth between giving advice and pacifying a tantrum child, all the while trying to figure out who had been railing this demon's temperament.
