"Look, Lady Eve is back."
"Wait, isn't that the Divine Bird?"
"It's really the Divine Bird, Caladrius."
With cries of surprise, countless members of the Black Wing Clan around them all knelt down in reverence.
The Star Spirit, along with Akame and Meyn, also ran over when they heard the commotion.
"Wow, Eve, why have you changed so much?"
"Eve, your horns are so cute."
In an instant, they noticed Eve's changes, their eyes lit up, and they all gathered around her.
"Hehe, not at all."
Hearing their compliments, Eve scratched her head shyly.
"But I have indeed become much stronger."
"And all of this is because of Master."
As she spoke, Eve looked at Alex, her eyes filled with undisguised reverence and affection.
If not for her master.
Let alone gaining her current power.
It was likely even her survival would be an unknown.
"Since that's the case, how do you plan to repay me?"
Looking at Eve, Alex spoke in a teasing tone.
"Um…"
Eve's face flushed, then she leaned closer to Alex and breathed a hot breath into his ear.
"Hmm… Master, don't you wish… I… I could try it later…"
"Wow, you're that bold?" Alex's eyes widened, completely not expecting her to proactively make such a request.
"Hiss!"
Although the sound was faint, Akame and the others still heard it and subconsciously tensed up.
Feeling Eve's burning gaze, Alex pulled her into his embrace, about to take further action.
But at that moment.
The ground began to tremble slightly.
Faint shouts of battle were already coming from afar.
"N-no good, the Demon King's Army is attacking."
Meer ran over in a panic.
He didn't need to remind him; Alex's senses had already figured out what was happening.
Not far away.
A large Demon King's Army was marching rapidly.
At this speed.
It wouldn't be long before they reached the Black Wing Clan's tribe.
"The Demon King's Army!!"
Eve, who was still shy, froze and immediately reacted, somewhat flustered.
"My presence here must have been exposed."
"Otherwise, the Demon King's Army wouldn't make such a big move."
"Isn't I here?"
Alex pressed her head, gently stroking her silver-white hair.
"Don't worry, even if the Demon King himself leads them, they won't return."
The next second!
The power of the Dimensional Array activated.
Light flashed.
Alex and the others, along with the Divine Bird, had already appeared out of thin air outside the tribe.
Not far away.
Countless dust clouds rose, and the earth trembled more and more noticeably.
An uncountable Demon King's Army was already faintly visible.
Rumble! Rumble!
Neat hoofbeats kicked up bursts of roars.
In an instant, they had already covered thousands of meters, charging straight ahead with an incredibly brutal momentum.
At this moment, the world seemed silent.
Only the shouts of battle were endless, and the surging killing intent poured out like an overwhelming tide.
"Such power, this is definitely the elite of the Demon King's Army."
Facing such a real battle for the first time, Eve's mind was almost overwhelmed.
The Star Spirit and the others, however, showed no reaction.
They had experienced such scenes too many times.
Even the Star Spirit and Akame had frequently followed the kingdom in conquering territories during this period, and had completely grown accustomed to war.
"How is it, no problem?"
Alex rubbed Eve's head, asking about her condition.
"Whoosh—"
Eve took a deep breath and said firmly, "I'm fine."
She had become so much stronger.
No matter what, she couldn't disappoint her master.
This was Eve's truest thought at this moment.
Alex smiled: "Actually, you don't need to be so nervous."
"Have you forgotten that you now possess the power of the Divine Bird?"
"Divine Bird?"
Eve was stunned, then her face lit up with joy.
"That's right."
The Divine Bird was still by her side.
This was their Black Wing Clan's Divine Beast, rumored to be capable of destroying an entire nation.
However, before she could even give a command, the Divine Bird, already understanding, soared into the sky.
Her master was Eve, that was correct.
But Eve's master was Alex.
Obeying the will of the true boss was absolutely without fault.
