Ning thought for a while, but the answer was obvious. "No," he said.

"Of course," she said. "I would've been surprised if you accepted. I wouldn't know how to take a demon with us anyway. There's simply no way to hide your wings."

Gariin then brought out something from her inventory and tossed it at Ning. "Here you go. While I can't confirm you did kill the commander, all evidence point to you, so there's no point in doubting you."

Ning grabbed what was tossed and looked surprised. Suddenly, a burst of notifications rang out in front of him, telling him that he had completed the quest.

The woman tossed a pouch of coins next to him, but Ning didn't look at that at all, but instead at the Demon Stats skill in his hands.

Without hesitation, he learned the skill and used up one more slot of his skill slots. Now, he only had 1 more remaining.

Ning read the description of the skill once more and got happy again. It was a skill that gave you a random stat for killing either a high-ranking Demon or anything over 20 levels than him.

"The demons have already started preparing for a voyage to the north. Will you be joining them?" the woman asked.

"Uh… maybe," Ning said. "I'm in no hurry though. I might wait around for a while."

"Alright, do as you wish. If you want more work, come find us in the Starsoar continent," the woman said.

"Sure," Ning said. "I'll be leaving now."

He walked out of the castle and left the humans be. Soon, the humans will go to the other continents, and not long after the demons would likely follow to conquer the whole world.

This war was nothing. The real war would start once everyone gathered in the other continent.

'Starsoar huh? I will have to train a while before I'm strong enough to move there.'

Saphandra had left the north 2 months ago and had come down to the south after news of demons in the other continent had spread.

The demons were going to attack the southern cities of the continent, so she was here to fight back against them.

In the last nearly 4 months she had spent playing the game, she had managed to level up to 108. As time went on, it got increasingly harder to level up due to the lack of proper dungeons.

It was around that time that she realized that the best way to level up was by fighting the demons in the war.

So, for the last month or so, she had been constantly on the battlefield, leveling up an entire level in a single day.

The drop from the fights was also not that bad.

She left the city she was staying in and walked over to the tents where the angels and humans were camping before the demon army on the other side of the desolate land.

Quite a few people stared at her for her brilliant golden wings, but she didn't give much thought to their staring.

She walked with a normal gait, using her newly forged staff with a deep purple gem crested at the top of it.

She arrived in front of one of the tents and went in. Multiple angels were gathered around a map, making plans for the battle today.

"We should attack this side. I've seen weaker demons here."

"Why don't we flank them from this side? We can kill the ranged damage dealers that way."

"No, we will be stuck behind enemy lines. It is too risky."

The angels there kept talking over each other, giving suggestions and criticism about each other's plans.

Each one of them had wings behind their back, but none of them were as big as hers. After all, she was the only player in this room.

"Miss Saph, you are here," one of the angels with a gentle smile said. "Please, come and give us your thoughts on the matter too."

Having received a unique class known as the Divine Saintess, Saphandra had received skills that benefited everyone in a mass area. Her skills included healing people, removing debuffs, and instead buffing them, making them immune to spell and physical damage.

She also had her main skill, Fariel's Blessing, which allowed the effect of any of her AOE skills to be better in every way the more people that were affected by her.

It could be improved by 5 times at most, but that alone was amazing. When the high angels had noticed her, they had taken her into their camp to receive her help.

Saphandra nodded and walked up to the table to look at how the war was going on.

The demons had taken up the cities to the south surrounded by a forest and had advanced even further up to come towards a city in the desert.

This was where the humans and angels had lined up to stop the demons from advancing even further.

She looked at the high Angel that had called her. This man was someone that was easily over level 300, and yet he was still incapable of killing all the demons here.

Rather, he didn't.

"If I cast a big area debuff spell on the demons, they will have no chance but lose. We can slowly drive them back that way, and we can win this war," she said.

The high angel kept his smile but he still shook his head. "You should know by now we can't do that, right?" he asked.

Saphandra frowned, but she didn't let it show up on her face. "Of course," she said.

With the manpower that was here, defeating these demons would be an easy task. But that was not what the angels were here for at all.

They were here to keep an equilibrium between the humans and the demons so that the humans could continue to rely on the angels and their faith would empower their 10 gods.

The demons were terrible, but the angels weren't without flaws either.
