They only took fighting stances, ready to fight just in case the young man had changed his mind and went against them.

"The two of us have no intention to fight," Ethan stated. "My goal is to destroy the Legacy Tome inside the Sacred Altar, but I have no intention of killing the Gatekeeper. Believe me when I say that this slaughter will not end until the golden light that can be seen from far away ceases to exist.

"If you want the Water Fairies to stop dying, then let me destroy the Legacy Tome and stop everyone\'s suffering."

Nika didn\'t reply right away because all of them had resolved themselves to fight to the death with the invaders.

However, if such an option really existed, then it would save countless Fairies, which was something that she wished to happen.

"Do you swear by your soul that you will not harm our Gatekeeper?" Nika asked.

"I promise not to harm her," Ethan replied.

"Words are cheap, so if you agree to one condition, we will allow you to pass."

"I\'m all ears."

Nika glanced at her sisters, and saw all of them nod at the same time.

"We will cast a curse on you which will kill you instantly if you break your word," Nika stated. "Only by doing this will we escort you to the Sacred Altar, untouched."

"Okay," Ethan answered in a heartbeat.

He didn\'t even bother negotiating, which surprised all the Fairies around him.

Nika stared long and hard at Ethan\'s eyes before closing her eyes.

"Fine. Follow me," Nika said after a few minutes had passed.

"What about the curse?" Ethan inquired.

"There\'s no need for it. I decided to trust you, Human. Make sure to not break my trust."

"I won\'t."

Nika nodded before facing her comrades.

"Sisters, we head to the Sacred Altar in order to stop this war," Nika declared. "Call our other comrades and tell them to retreat. We will make our last stand at the Altar!"

"Understood! I\'ll go tell the others!"

"Me, too!"

"We will all retreat!"

"Leader, take the two Humans. We will inform our other comrades to retreat!"

Nika nodded before making a gesture to Ethan to follow her.

The young man didn\'t hesitate to fly behind the Fairy, while Lyall ran after them, not caring if she was stepping on water or land.

With Nika leading the way, the other Fairies ahead didn\'t attack the two Humans. However, they blocked Nika\'s path and asked her where she was headed.

After a brief exchange, the other Fairies understood what Ethan wanted to do. And since they could feel Fairy Magic emanating from his body, their impression of him was better compared to the other Humans.

"Spread the word," Nika pleaded. "I don\'t want our sisters to die a meaningless death. Let us all head to the Sacred Altar. With our numbers, even if they come, they won\'t be able to fight us all."

Originally, the Fairies thought that the invaders weren\'t that many and not very skilled.

Because of this, they decided to create teams with a hundred fairies each in order to intercept any invaders.

But those who joined the expedition understood that they were going to face resistance, so they all banded together and fought alongside each other.

These Wizards and Witches were all geniuses, and they weren\'t some small fries whom the Fairies could beat so easily.

One by one, the Fairies retreated back to the Sacred Altar as fast as they could.

Unlike Ethan, the Water Fairies could instantly teleport to where their Gatekeeper, Aria, was.

Because of these, the battles that were happening all around the Domain between Fairies and the invaders immediately ceased as all the Fairy Teams hastily retreated.

Nika, who was escorting Ethan, didn\'t teleport away because there was still a possibility that they would encounter other Fairy Teams, who had still not been informed about what was happening.

Suddenly, Ethan saw a cloud mist in the distance, which reminded him of the first time he saw Lyall.

Using his X-Vision to zoom in the direction where the mist was, he saw Conall, running over the water at great speeds.

Perhaps sensing each other, Conall and Lyall glanced in each other\'s direction at the same time.

"Follow us, Brother!" Lyall shouted, which made the Cloud Mist\'s path change into their direction.

"He\'s a friend," Ethan said to Nika, who was eyeing the approaching Beastkin with a frown.

When Conall finally arrived at their location, he gave the High Pixie a brief glance before asking her sister about the current situation.

"Great thinking, Ethan," Conall praised the young man. "This way, casualties on both sides can be avoided. But since the Fairies have disappeared, the others will have no obstruction when they head to the Sacred Altar."

"It doesn\'t matter," Ethan replied. "Navigating through the wetlands is hard especially if you can\'t fly. Only those who have the ability to run over water like you and Lyall have an advantage."

Conall nodded. "I saw several Elves and Wood Fairies along the way, and they chose to communicate with the Water Fairies instead of fighting them. Right now, I think only the Humans, Dwarves, and Beastkins are fighting against the Water Fairies."

"Then we have to hurry," Ethan stated. "The sooner we destroy the Legacy Tome, the faster things will settle down."

Conall agreed with Ethan\'s words, so he decided to tag along with them to head to the Sacred Altar.

This time, they hastened their traveling speed to get to their destination as fast as they could.

Ethan had fought against Conall, so he was certain that they would be able to deal with any situation that might arise.

Within the Sacred Altar…

"Aria, what\'s wrong?" a High Pixie asked the small Water Fairy who seemed to be having a stomach ache.

"S-Something is happening," Aria said with a pained expression on her face. "I-I can\'t… it hurts… it hurts so much!"

The Sacred Altar, which was shooting up a golden beam of light toward the heavens, suddenly trembled.

Aria, who was still writhing in pain, cried out as a beam of light erupted from her body and shot toward the altar.

A moment later, the color of the beam of light changed from golden to Royal Blue, making all the Fairies around it shudder.

Then, everyone heard it.

A chilling voice filled with killing intent reverberated in the surroundings, making those who heard it stop in their tracks.

"Mortals who mercilessly killed my subjects, do not think about leaving this place alive. You can run, but you can\'t hide. I will spill your blood on this very night."

As soon as those words were spoken, the entire world suddenly changed from day to night.

The moon hovering in the sky then suddenly disappeared, leaving only the stars twinkling in the sky.

Ethan, who was flying alongside Nika, suddenly lost the wings on his back and fell toward the water, making Lyall cry out in shock.

The young lady hurriedly caught the falling young man in her arms, but it was at that moment when she felt that something wasn\'t right.

After a closer inspection, Lyall\'s body stiffened as she looked at the thing in her arms with eyes as wide as saucers.

No one could blame her reaction, for it was truly unexpected.

Instead of holding a handsome young man, whom she planned to give a kiss, what she found was a salmon, almost making her hiss.
