Fighting for a better future and struggling to prevent the worst were quite different mindsets, but Noah and the others didn't get to choose in that situation.

King Elbas was too strong. Nothing they did slowed down his offensive, so they could only keep throwing attacks and traps at him. They would have to deal with the damages after they managed to win.

"Slow down the pace," Noah conveyed through his inscribed notebook after he reached a silent agreement with Great Elder Diana. "Stay alive. This will last a while."

Noah's simple orders were enough to change the strategy of the army. The Ape God retreated even faster than before, and the Copying Technique activated to facilitate its escape.

An army of magical beasts appeared at some distance from King Elbas and charged toward him while launching countless attacks.
