Roy did not know who Raelag was. After all, there were so many heroes in the Heroes of Might and Magic world, so how could he remember all of them? Except for some relatively famous ones, Roy did not know much about them.
But in fact, Raelag, this dark elf, was also someone with a powerful background!
This was because he was actually a mixed-blood, a mixed-blood of dark elves and demons!
Strictly speaking, Raelag was also a Child of Taboo, but his origin could no longer be verified. The unique living customs of the dark elves doomed him to not know who his mother or father was. Because of this hybrid identity, he had been expelled from the dark elves since he was very young.
However, although he was expelled, he was not knocked down by the harsh pressure of survival. Instead, he grew up smoothly. After he became an adult, he put on heavy armor and mixed into the demon camp with the identity of a demon disciple. He even had a pseudonym, Agrael …
Due to his demon bloodline, his body naturally exuded a demon aura. Under the disguise of the helmet, the demons did not see through his true identity and instead accepted him. And Raelag, who was using the pseudonym Agrael, stood out in various wars and trials.
The identity of a Child of Taboo gave him infinite power. It had to be said that this kind of hybrid who could be born smoothly could only be described as a genius. At that time, Agrael's strength had soared in a short time and even surpassed many high-rank demons. Therefore, Kha-Beleth took a fancy to him, appointed him as his deputy, and gave him an important mission.
That was to monitor and protect Isabel …
At that time, Isabel, the daughter of the lunar eclipse, was still young, and Kha-Beleth's order to Agrael was to protect Isabel and not let her die prematurely. After all, Kha-Beleth needed Isabel to smoothly reach adulthood. Agrael did not think too much at that time and carried out the order normally.
However, an accident happened here. Agrael had watched Isabel grow up, and after a long time, he actually fell in love with her!
It was precisely because of this love that Agrael became more and more anxious as Isabel grew up day by day. He understood that something terrible might happen after Isabel fell into the hands of the demons, so it was only natural that the demon hero Agrael rebelled! He decided to save Isabelle.
Due to his powerful strength, when he began to try to rebel against Kha-Beleth, Benia's sister, the succubus Biara, misunderstood him. She thought that he wanted to become a demon lord and challenge Kha-Beleth, so she secretly wanted to join Agrael. After discovering Agrael's true purpose, she flew into a rage out of humiliation and ran to snitch on Kha-Beleth!
Therefore, Agrael began to be hunted down by the demon camp. Biara gained Kha-Beleth's trust because of her contributions in snitching. She began to grasp power and was sent to Erathia to pretend to be Isabel. After losing Agrael, Kha-Beleth's plan was stretched thin, and he could only promote Xeron … All of this actually happened in the past two years.
Because of his rebellion, Agrael no longer obtained the followers of other demons. He lost his army, and Isabel was taken away by Biara. Therefore, in order to take back his beloved and stop Kha-Beleth's plot, Agrael found the elven prophet, Tieru. With Tieru's help, he purified the demon bloodline in his body, restored his original dark elf identity, and became Raelag again.
After recovering his original identity and name, Raelag returned to the territory of the dark elves. Coincidentally, the Shadowbrand clan had lost its leader and needed to choose a new leader through a martial arts competition. And Raelag, a dark elf of unknown origin, joined this competition and finally won the competition to obtain the power ring of the clan, thus ascending to the throne of leader.
After obtaining the army again, Raelag led his clansmen on the path to find Isabel. He knew that Isabel was definitely in the demon territory, but even after sending assassins and spies to inquire, he could not figure out where Isabel was.
Ur-Hekal was the biggest suspect, but there were too many demons in this city. His people could not enter at all, and it was equally impossible to attack. Moreover, after his betrayal last time, Kha-Beleth felt a deep crisis of trust, so except for Xeron, no one knew where Isabel was hidden. The secret chamber used for sacrifice was built very secretly … Even ordinary demon heroes did not know, let alone Raelag.
After wandering aimlessly in Eeofol for a long time, Raelag had no idea where to start, so he could only send his clansmen to ambush and assassinate the demons. He wanted to use this to divert the attention of the demons and see if he could move them out of Ur-Hekal to create a chance for him.
Unexpectedly, Roy came with his army at this time …
The ambush ended up bringing back a strange and terrifying plague virus. The Shadowbrand Clan's vitality was greatly damaged, and the Dark Elves at the bottom were almost wiped out. They had no choice but to retreat underground to recuperate.
However, before Raelag could replenish his forces, Roy, the demon who spread the plague, appeared in front of him again. Not only did he bring an enormous army, but he also arrogantly told a terrifying truth in front of him!
Words could no longer describe the shock in Raelag's heart. As a former Child of Taboo, he naturally knew how terrifying a Child of Taboo was!
It had to be known that Raelag's original mixed-blood identity was only that of a low-level demon. Even so, his magic power had grown from just a few decades to the point where it was comparable to a demon lord's. Although the demon bloodline in his body had been purified and his strength had declined, he could almost imagine how terrifying a Child of Taboo with the bloodline of a demon lord would be once he grew up!
In particular, such a Child of Taboo would grow up under the nurturing of demons, which would be even more terrifying. His thoughts and behavior would become like that of demons, keen on destruction and killing.
Perhaps at that time, the world of Ashan would welcome a terrifying dark demon king!
No! I absolutely can't let the demon's plot succeed! Raelag made up his mind almost instantly!
Similarly, Roy did not give him much time to think. After the drama queen was done, Roy immediately commanded all the troops to attack this dark elven city.
The demon army, which had been waiting impatiently for a long time, immediately roared and rushed out the moment Roy gave the order. Their bloodthirsty roars immediately echoed in the spacious underground.
Without leaving any buffer, the war broke out. The demons with sharp blades rushed to the bottom of the city wall and began to destroy it. The vampires in the air turned into large bats and pounced on the city wall with sinister smiles. They grabbed the troglodytes and harpies and sucked their blood in big mouthfuls.
A large number of fire magic spells shot toward the city from behind, igniting the flammable objects in the city. Choking smoke spread out, causing the defenders in the city to cry.
Realizing that the city might not be able to hold on any longer, the dark elves in the city did not care so much. They opened the city gates and rushed out, seeking a decisive battle. The enormous multi-headed lizards, which were like tanks, ran out with heavy steps and bit anyone they saw. The numerous heads on their necks could attack enemies within a 360-degree range. Even though some of the multi-headed lizards were injured by the blades of the death knights, the corrosive blood splashing out of their bodies was also counterattacking the enemies.
In the towers on the city wall, dark elven witches shot out lightning balls one after another. The lightning balls plowed a blank ravine in the low-level undead army and finally landed on some middle-rank demons using magic attacks, electrocuting them into charcoal.
With several loud dragon roars, the black dragons and shadow dragons joined the battle. They swooped down from the top of the canyon, and their enormous figures almost filled all the space in the canyon. They opened their ferocious dragon mouths full of sharp teeth and spat out thick black pillars of fire that began to wash the battlefield. One dragon flew over, and another followed closely, endless and endless.
Thanks to them, the battlefield was already full of raging flames, and any troops burned by the flames were engulfed by the flames.
However, the black dragons and shadow dragons were not complacent for long. They were pounced on by a group of bone dragons in midair. These bone dragons did not have any concept of compatriots at all as they grabbed their necks and bit them. At the same time, they used their claws to tear at their abdomens and wings. When they could no longer fly, these huge creatures fell from midair.
Before they could angrily deal with the bone dragons lying on their bodies, a pillar of flames exploded beside them. A high-rank demon holding a heavy weapon appeared from the flames, raised his weapon with a sinister smile, and smashed it down at the heads of the dragons!
The sound of skulls shattering came, accompanied by the tragic roars of numerous black dragons and shadow dragons. In just a short while, several dragons had died.
But at the same time, the high-rank demons also paid the price. The angry dragons grabbed some high-rank demons with their claws, and when they flew into the air, they bit off half of their bodies. In the end, they could only turn into ashes and die, and their souls returned to the Abyss …
Rafaro, Fat Tiger, Julia, and Benia also attacked. They each looked for opponents on the battlefield to fight, but their main targets were the black dragons and shadow dragons.
Roy's order was to fight with all their might, but he had to let Raelag escape in the end!
Yes, he did not intend to kill this dark elf named Raelag but to let him flee in defeat. He knew very well that after Raelag escaped, he would definitely find the alliance army of the elves and Bracadans. He would tell the alliance army about the birth of Isabel and the Dark Messiah!
At that time, Roy was certain that the alliance army would never let the Child of Taboo of Kha-Beleth be born. They would attack Ur-Hekal at all costs and think of a way to rescue Isabel!
This was why Roy had said those words like a drama queen just now. He was using this method to leak information about Isabel …
As enemies, it was impossible for Raelag and the others to report to Kha-Beleth and say that Roy had leaked this news to them …
Throughout the entire matter, Kha-Beleth and Xeron would be kept in the dark. They would never have thought that he had leaked the information about the Dark Messiah. In their understanding, Roy had not come into contact with the sacrificial ritual at all, so it was impossible for him to know their plan. In the end, Kha-Beleth would only think that the alliance army had discovered it through other methods.
For Roy, the best situation was for the alliance army to attack Ur-Hekal, destroy the sacrificial ritual, and save Isabel. In this case, Kha-Beleth would not even need to do anything, and he would personally kill Xeron in anger!
Even if the situation was worse and the alliance army could not take down Ur-Hekal, after a high-intensity war, the number of demons in Ur-Hekal would definitely be greatly reduced. At that time, Roy could take advantage of the chaos to kill Xeron himself and then frame the alliance army, making them take the blame!
No matter what, Roy would not lose!
