Chapter 1061
Though they had survived the assault, the demons were still grieving from the devastating damage.
At that point in time—a period when Sword God Ares was still alive—it seemed the great war between demons and humans hadn’t completely broken out yet. Whether the two races as a whole got along was unclear, but at the very least, the living Ares didn’t seem to harbor any hatred toward the demons.
“Hurry up and move that! Put it over here!”
The surviving demons were busy restoring their village. Watching them from a distance, Ares scratched at his disheveled hair.
“We’ve come all this way. It must’ve been tough on them. Time to head back,” Ares said as he lightly tapped the neck of a brown-coated horse. With a soft whinny and a shuffle of hooves, the horse gently lowered its body to his level before he continued, “I need to go deal with whoever’s behind this mess. What about you?”
“Weren’t those soldiers official troops?”
“There are always scumbags like that in the ranks of large militaries. The only real difference is a little horn on their heads and the kind of power they wield. It's a shame, really. We’re all living beings, yet everyone’s desperate to tear each other apart.”
Demons and humans had a uniquely antagonistic relationship. It wasn’t like elves and dwarves were always on friendly terms either, though, so it wasn’t something exclusive to demons.
“Come to think of it, in this era, orcs are also...” Davey pondered aloud.
“Hm? What did you just say?”
“Nothing.”
