Chapter 336: It was a massacre
Originally, Seraphina had the same worries as Ethan going into this battle. After all, she had only just stepped into the Lesser Deity tier and undergone her second awakening—there was no way for her to accurately gauge the full extent of her power yet.
So when she first faced off against the eight Dungeon Lords, along with the overwhelming swarm of 14th-Tier Black Dragons and 13th-Tier Legendary Units like Red Dragons and Shadow Dragons, the pressure was intense—crushing, even.
She knew exactly how crucial her strength was to this war. If she couldn’t hold the line, if she couldn’t shoulder that weight, then Emerald Castle would be staring straight down the barrel of defeat.
Emerald Castle... defeated?
That was something she absolutely refused to let happen.
Her deep affection for Ethan, and the way he cherished, nurtured, and believed in her—along with the loyalty of every soldier and Hero Unit who followed them—meant that Seraphina now carried a responsibility far greater than herself.
As Emerald Castle’s strongest warrior, its future—and everyone’s lives—rested on her shoulders.
So from the very beginning, she was ready to go all in. She was prepared to fight with everything she had, to become the decisive force that would turn the tide and lead Emerald Castle to victory.
What she didn’t expect, though...
Was that even after she’d already overestimated her own strength before the battle began—she had still underestimated it.
That realization hit her like a breath of fresh air. The pressure that had been weighing her down suddenly lifted, and with it, her mindset began to shift. The fear and tension started to melt away, replaced by something else—something primal.
