The Devouring Sky Demon Lord and the others laughed and said:
"It's fine, we all understand."
They were all quite familiar with the temperament of the Ignorant Monarch.
No one objected—in the past hundred thousand years, they had participated in hundreds of wars, great and small, across the astral world. As long as the Ignorant Monarch took part, nine times out of ten they were victorious!
As for that remaining one, it wasn't a loss either, but a battle where the Great Prophet personally intervened; matched against one another, neither side could overcome the other, so, with tacit understanding, both chose to withdraw.
On the way back, the Blood Sea Mosquito Lord sighed:
"With the Ignorant Monarch joining the war, this time, our victory is guaranteed!"
The Void Demon Lord let out a lascivious laugh and said:
"I can't wait to see that cold and proud Frost Witch caught off-guard before me, trembling in shock as I toy with her at my whim—keh keh keh."
...
Ten years later.
