The pair hacked away at their limbs, cutting off talons and legs and arms and heads! But there were too many, and Rune had to disengage from the insectoid to blast some demons away at close range. In a few moments, Ulf and Thyra were practically engulfed in a sea of the smaller, garden-variety demons that made up the bulk of the attackers. But the big ones were not easy to knock back with her beams of fire, and the smaller ones rushed forward while she focused on one of the big insectoid beasts. Rune fired up any demon that came close, destroying several more. They kept coming, even more than before! And the big ones were coming, too! The three defenders could see now the big ones were driving the little ones forward if they quailed, as if they were slaves or servants being forced to fight by those in the back.Īnd now the big ones pressed in to join the attack, shoving the smaller ones aside in their hurry to reach the people they wanted to kill. For the moment.īut the demons didn’t stop. “Ha! Suck on that, you bastards,” Thyra called out to their foes, ignoring the fact her best friend had WINGS. Suddenly, Thyra and Ulf felt a rush of wind, and then Rune was landing heavily on the ground in front of them, brilliant white light exploding outwards at the demons! Those closest were either heavily burned or almost incinerated, while many of the others further back were knocked to the ground, some injured. “My Queen! Now would be a good time!” The King’s request was as urgent as the situation! Then seven! But now many more were coming at once! Rune shot bolt after bolt of her lighted fury, knocking demons back and setting them alight while Ulf and Thyra hacked away at any demon that got close enough to try to engage them. Suddenly the demonic creatures roared in fury and rushed forward, planning to overwhelm the threesome and finally willing to brave the light to do so. Could their friend really keep that promise, today? But they had only been 30, and human, not demon. It was almost word for word what the Valkyrie had promised Freidrich’s men. Ulf and Thyra both arched a brow at that. “Every one of you is going to burn here today, I promise!” “Who wants to die, first?”Īnd she shot out her fire at the closest demon, catching it on the white-hot beam and incinerating it as the others watched. “Come on!” Rune cried out at them, seemingly infected by her husband’s mood. If they were trying to intimidate, it didn’t work. Instead, they came to a halt, the whole mob, and they stood still, snarling and glaring. Now that they were all here, surely they’d brave Rune’s light and try to overwhelm them!īut they didn’t. Though they’d taken out a number of demons, there were still many times that number ready, and they braced for the onslaught. The other demons laughed and beat them, forcing them to come back at their three targets.īy the time the entire army had arrived, the defenders had spent all their arrows, and they’d thrown every spear they had at hand. Rune began shooting heavenly fire at one beast after another, scorching them and sending them yelping off like kicked dogs, trying to escape. Floating heads with many eyes! Demons that looked like giant insects!Īnd in the distance, they could hear two HUGE demons approaching! The demons snarled and howled, but they refused to brave the circle of bright, hot light, and the defenders started shooting them right in the head with arrows, taking out several.īut more demons kept coming! And behind the first group were demons none of them had ever seen before! Bigger and nastier looking! None looked like the power demon, but some were horrific, all the same. “What’s the matter, are you afraid,” the King taunted, seeming in a fey mood and assuming he had no chance to live. Meanwhile, Rune summoned up her inner light to glow brightly, forming a sphere around them the demons were hesitant to enter. Soon the demon horde was rushing at the three defenders, and the King and his sister were sending arrow after arrow at them. Read The Lost Valkyrie in order! Some chapters are NSFW!
