After a while, the show finished as Lily changed her dress. Neo didn’t say anything as he sat down and started to read the necessary files.

"You two, move out!"

Neo commanded as he busied himself with his work.

Lily nodded with a smile as she walked out of the room. Stella wanted to say something but couldn’t find the words to express her feelings.

Neo notices this but chooses not to interfere; he feels that Stella should make the decision herself.

Then, Stella also left the room with a restless heart; outside, she found Lily looking at her with a meaningful smile.

"Rise"

Without explaining anything, she used wind magic and flew away toward the magic tower.

Stella watched this with a silent gaze as her wings also unfolded. With a single flap, she rose from the ground, as her destination was the army barracks.

Lily familiarized herself with the magic tower as she moved through its floor. After reaching the top, she started to input all the magic she had created in its spell storage.

Now, anyone who enters the magic tower can learn the spells she had created, although most spells were of lower rank, they were quite varied.

"This should do for now~"

Lily smiled as she jumped out of the window of the top floor of the magic tower; her beautiful dress fluttered with the wind as she moved toward the barracks.

The beastmen that were supposed to follow were already ready and were waiting for Lily. Stella had already taken her part of the army out of the city.

"Follow me~"

Lily said as her gentle voice spread, a smile was present on her face, giving the illusion that she was a mother coaxing her child.

But when this gentle voice was heard, the battle-hardened beastmen felt a chill run through their body.

It was as if their body was thrown into an icy hell and their soul was caught by a terrifying devil.

"Freezing up isn’t a good behavior, you know~"

Her voice spread out again as all the beastmen broke out of their thoughts with sweat dripping from their body, they shouted.

"Understood, Madam!!!"

All of them shouted, and their way of calling her seemed to satisfy Lily as she flew toward the west.

The beastmen glanced at each other before following her, they also mourned in their heart that following this new madam seemed to be harder than following the Commander(Stella).

After a while, Lily appeared at the entrance of the Eastern Central forest. Looking at the magnificent forest, she was lost in thought.

The beastmen following her quietly waited behind her, waiting for her command.

"Hmm~"

Lily started to hum as her face showed a smile; she seemed to have thought of something as her energy started to move.

Using her skill, she started to mold her energy as it took a colorful hue; her thoughts moved as her magic finally took shape.

A group of dandelion florets made of pure energy floated in her hand as they glowed with a silver and red hue.

"Hehe~"

With a gentle laugh, she blew on the florets as they moved with the wind, spreading toward the forest.

It was a beautiful scene and the beastmen watched it in silence, although they didn’t understand what she was doing they didn’t dare disturb her.

As the dandelion florets flowed toward the forest, some curious animals watched the floating florets with curiosity.

Suddenly, a curious rabbit jumped as it ate the floret in one big gulp, and the others in its group followed its action as they started to eat as mush florets as possible.

Lily saw this as her smile bloomed even more beautifully; from an outsider’s perspective, it seemed like she was feeding the cute animals like the rabbits.

The beastmen also wondered the same thing as they questioned themself if they had looked at the gentle Lily with a heart of evil.

But just as the thought was about to appear in their mind, all the rabbits that had eaten or the other animals that had touched the floret fell on the ground.

All of them were put in an awkward position as they looked like they were kneeling on the ground.

Amidst the confusion of the beastmen and the smile of Lily, dandelion flowers started to grow from the animals’ bodies.

Although the animals didn’t even scream, just by looking at their eyes, one could feel the amount of pain they were in.

Their vitality and other forms of energy were being rapidly sucked away as the dandelion’s flower grew on their body.

If just that they wouldn’t be in so much pain, but this magic also infected them with a poison that paralyzed their bodies and amplified their pain receptors.

So they were dying slowly and agonizingly as they weren’t even given the luxury to scream out in pain.

Lily just watched it while floating in the sky, her gentle smile never fading away. Those who didn’t know the situation would think that the animals were praying to a gentle goddess.

As the dandelion flower fully bloomed, the florets were once again blown away by the wind as they moved deeper toward the forest.

Some animals and monsters near the edge of the forest sensed danger and ran away, but most weren’t so lucky.

In just a few hours, the forest was filled with dandelion florets as they continued to increase in number.

"This should do~"

As the beastmen watched with horrified eyes, the gentle and playful voice of Lily was heard. Looking at her beautiful and smiling figure, a deeper shadow of fear was etched in their hearts.

"You can move as you like~"

Lily commanded as she flew higher in the sky. The beastmen looked at each other before deciding to stand in their original place.

A curious one among them walked forward and touched a floret, the other beastmen also watched with a breathless look.

"Idiot!!"

Some who knew his curse and tried to stop him, but it was too late, amidst their horrified eyes this curious beastmen also received the same fate as other animals.

FUUU!!

Suddenly, a flame fell from the sky and incinerated the body of the beastmen, leaving noting behind.

At least it was a quick death, and he didn’t have to go through those horrifying experiences in his last moments.

"This attack doesn’t separate foes and friends, so try not to die~"

Lily’s voice rang out from high above in the sky as all of the beastmen nodded their head, not daring to say anything more.

Lily watched this from the sky, her mood didn’t even fluctuate a little bit by this accident.

If she tried, she could have saved this beastmen’s life, but she wasn’t bored enough to do show.

She was watching her masterpiece; at the rate in which the florets were spreading, it should be able to clear away the radius of 900 km in at most four days.

She was smiling and giggling to herself, wondering how her lovely lord would praise her. She also wondered if she could ask her lord for something extra.

Just thinking about that made her expression a little sultry as her face turned red and her breath was labored.

After all, Stella isn’t the only one who has such thoughts.

As for why she didn’t just give all the animals, tribes, and monsters a quick death.

First, giving someone a quick and easy death didn’t fit her style; when she killed, she would kill in the most ruthless way.

Secondly, how dare these insects get in her lovely lord’s way? This, in her heart, is the greatest crime one could ever commit.

She even felt that this kind of death was not enough, but if she started to mold a stronger magic, she would waste more time.

Time she could spend being near her lovely lord, serving him and getting his praise.

The third reason is the fact that she wants to show her lovely lord that she is more useful than Stella.

As a Valkyrie that’s connected to him, just like how he can feel some of her emotions, she can also feel his.

Stella blocks this ability as she feels that reading her dearest lord’s emotion isn’t something a sword like her should dare to do.

But, Lily laughs at such an idea; after all, only when she knows her lord’s emotions can she better serve him.

Anyway, since she knows his emotion, she also understands that her lovely lord loves Stella dozens of times more than her.

Although all the Valkyries are supposed to belong to her lovely lord, she still feels a little jealous of Stella.

Thus, there is nothing she wouldn’t do to make sure her lord loves her the most.

"Stella, My Sister~"

"Unlike you, I won’t waste this opportunity~"

Muttering to herself, she gently fell to the ground. After ordering the beastmen to retreat, she flew straight toward her lord.
