"The Demon Emperor... is dead."
The words hit Roseline like a bolt from the blue.
She stared blankly at the place where the Demon Emperor had been standing just moments ago.
"The Demon Emperor... is dead?" she repeated.
It was hard to believe. The Demon Emperor was known as the strongest being across the five continents, second only to the Dragon Ancestor.
Yet many believed he had long surpassed even the dragon ancestor. The belief wasn't unfounded, considering the dragon ancestor had never once revealed itself to the world.
And now, the Demon Emperor was dead.
It felt utterly unreal.
Meanwhile, the human soldiers turned their attention toward the center of the battlefield.
The Demon Emperor, who had been standing there just moments before, was gone.
"The Demon Emperor is gone? How is that possible?" one of them exclaimed.
The others were just as shocked. They frantically searched the battlefield, but there was no trace of him anywhere.
