After losing against The Green Kingdom's prodigies, the faces of youngsters from the beast kingdom scrunched uglily. No one liked to lose, and their kings wanted them to win; such a reaction was on the spot.

Speaking of the kings, the lion king, the elephant king, and the fox queen had lost against their counterparts. Only the tiger king won the chess game.

But his victory didn't mean much, for most of the younger generation had failed them.

"I don't accept it," the elephant king, Botolf Lake, uttered in a sharp and threatening tone, his long elephant nose swaying due to his mana gathering around it.

His eyes turned red, revealing his identity. Many elders and youngsters from his tribe had undergone the same transformation, their hues brimming with blood color and an ominous aura of antagonists oozing out of them.

Anais Foxtail didn't flinch. She leaned more onto her palm, gazing at the elephant king with a faint smile. She was close to him, yet she sat with composure and confidence, giving the other beast and bug demi-humans confidence.

But as if it was the antagonist moment, the ant king revealed his red eyes. The same aura shimmered around his humanoid body and black, long antennas.

Yumia and other kings from the Green Kingdom glared at him.

Nestor, the white spider's king, whispered in a voice audible only to people matching his status, "You have sided with them, Clem?"<sub>.</sub>

While the people of the highest status and level acted calmly, their people caused some commotion, for everyone wanted to protect their kings and queens.

Alex reacted faster than anyone, standing behind Yumia like her bodyguard. Because of his presence, the queen took a similar pose to Anais Foxtail, sitting on the chair with her eyes fixed on the ant king.

Forest fairies and Deathwill surrounded them a few breaths later, forming a formation that would ensure the queen's and her relatives' safety.

"Botolf and Clem… I expected you two to actually betray your allies. I'm genuinely curious how those people managed to bring you to their side," Anais Foxtail parted her lips, her soft voice soothing the flared hearts of everyone around her.

Two kings felt like she slapped their pride, though.

The elephant king narrowed his eyes, replying with a straight back, "Players or the antagonists? What is there to choose? The former visits our world to cause chaos, stealing the wonders of our world for their fun! They just think of ourselves and treat us as fiction!"

The elephant demi-humans had significantly helped humans raise their water affinity with their treasures from their lands. In exchange, human kingdoms helped them using their ingenuity, solving many problems, such as diseases and food problems.

But there was nothing better than elephant blood for the water magic and treasures. For that alone, some humans decided to tatter between two kingdoms, plotting against humans and demi-humans.

Nothing was worse than players, though. Those players became worse wrongdoers than criminal groups from their world in just a few months! With their blatant and suicidal tactics, the players fought against weaker elephants, killing them for resources.<sub></sub>

"Really now?" Anais knitted her eyebrows, looking at Botolf as if he was an idiot.

The elephant king gritted his teeth, barely holding back his bottled emotions. But as Anais provoked him through a smirk, Botolf exploded, "They live with us!

They have their own realm! They are part of our world, while players are malignant forces that must be kicked from our lands!

They must perish and stay in their world!

The antagonists will achieve this! They will free us from the influence of those bastardly players! There's nothing to adapt except for the system!" Botolf explained with thunder in his voice, reaching the hearts of everyone.

And should Anais not been here, his emotions and words would have already influenced many beasts and even bugs.

But as the fox girl's expression didn't change, the demi-humans believed she would clear some doubts.

ɴ[0)ᴠᴇʟ Anais glanced at Clem, the ant king, "You share the same belief?"

The man nodded, his eyes fixed on the beautiful woman.<sub></sub>

Anais sighed, pointing her hand at Alex before saying, "The antagonists and players… I don't see any difference between them."

"What did you say?!" Botolf and Clem stood up, slamming their hands onto the table. The poor furniture cracked, shattering before their power. Their eyes widened, getting redder as if the elephant and ant king were about to become the perfect demons.

Some people around them tensed, yet Anais sat unfazed, "Haha! Well, there are apparent differences between them, right? The players are honest fellows. On the other hand, the antagonists hide too much. For example, their main objective. Their goal can not be just purging players from our world.

You two and your little brains can't comprehend that. You were probably aroused by the antagonists' strength and ways of holding events.

Did they offer you two the continent's conquest? It has to be it. Otherwise, you wouldn't have missed this simple detail.

They hurt demi-humans and humans of our world. They conquered three kingdoms, enslaving and feeding on their fears. They only keep them alive for a boost, feeding on them like demons.

Everyone can become their meal.

In conclusion, the antagonists' can not be our friends, for fear sprouts in every heart, regardless of race.

We are all the same," Anais explained with a straight and confident expression, looking out of the world.

Alas, Botolf didn't accept her reasoning.

"We aren't the same!" Botolf screamed, his body growing in size. He became closer to his beast characteristics. His skin turned gray, his muscles heavier, and his ears wide, flapping as beast mana swirled around him.

He charged like a wild bull, his fist aiming at Anais' gorgeous face.

The lady smirked, not moving. Her people shouted with concern laced in their voices, yet Anais just waited for the elephant man to get closer.

And when he did, her fox tails slipped outside from the chair she had been sitting on. Just three tails came out, their tips blocking the fist.

Anais narrowed her eyes, glaring at the man, "Asinine beast. Back to the circus."

SLAP!

"Ugh!" Botolf felt an immense strength coming out from the fluffy tails, pushing him away. Before he noticed, his body flew like a falling star, landing heavily on the white web wall.

His weight and strength behind the tail slap were so powerful that the wall broke, kicking away the elephant king from the meeting.

"Crap," the ant king whispered, using his antennas to call his people.

And while Botolf lay on the ground with a mouthful of blood coming out of his lips, Clem's people initiated their plan.

The whole capital shook as if the ground below them cracked.

Anais stood up, glancing at Alex, "Fast and efficient, wasn't it?"

Alex blushed, feeling like his heart just skipped a beat, for the gorgeous lady alluded to his previous words, clearly acknowledging him. Her looks were outstanding, yet her performance was enough to charm a man with four wives!

After chuckling at Alex's innocent reaction, Anais swept the air with her hand, "We are in the White Spider's territory, but ants are their neighbors. They must have been preparing to bulldoze the whole capital for some time now.

Team up with White Spiders, at least have one of them in your groups. Enslave all hungry demons without letting them respawn!" She took command, organizing demi-humans regardless of their race.

Nestor and other kings agreed with her words, "Clem has already escaped."

"Look ahead," Yumia replied, gazing at the hole the elephant's body made. Here, everyone saw an army of red-eyed demons swarming the area.
