The lycan leader looked around but no traces of Amera could be seen. His small army of lycans seemed to grow restless at this moment.

Their sudden loss of their biggest weapon turned everything upside down for all of them. Yet he felt unease towards Amera... Towards everything else.

"Woosh!"

Just as he was lost in his own thoughts, a strange sound appeared. Just at the place Amera vanished just now, that sound came from that spot.

The lycans were already grouped over each other. They tried to get a hit over Amera but they only got thin air and each other the next second.

But as this strange sound happened, a weirder thing occurred. A giant portal appeared and it kept expanding without showing an end.

"What is going on?" the leader couldn't ignore this anymore. He even had to retreat a couple of tens of meters to avoid the bombardment of his men out because of this portal.

Instead of a normal answer, he got a shocking one.

"Roar!"

It was such a terrifying roar that even he felt numb and weak all of sudden. He felt helpless, like standing in front of a mighty monster.

And he was absolutely right in his feelings.

"Roar!"

The next roar seemed louder and clearer, as if it came just next to him. In front of him, a gigantic octopus-like monster appeared.

At first gigantic tentacles appeared dancing in the air from the portal before the thick and giant head passed through followed by the gigantic body.

It became clear now that the monster which wreaked havoc at their forces from before just appeared now.

And the lycan leader felt his heart sink inside his legs.

"Roar!"

The third roar came as a declaration of the dominance of that monster. In the next minutes many lycans around were smashed into jelly by the terrifying force of the tentacles.

And that wasn't all.

"Woosh!"

"Woosh!"

"Woosh!"

All of a sudden hundreds and even thousands of portals opened all of sudden. Around the leader and his army of lycans these portals started to pop out of nowhere.

And the nightmare just started like that.

"If I were you, I would lay down my weapons and accept my fate," all of sudden the sound of Amera appeared. It wasn't that far or near, as she appeared from one of the portals that was just next to the tower.

Amera appeared out of the portal sound and healthy. Her face showed a smug smile, one that a fated enemy would give to his sworn foe after finally making him fall for his deadly trap.

And that was exactly what that leader felt towards the current situation.

Without knowing why, the tables turned around. He came here holding the upper hand, and now he was the one being squashed under the heavy rock that Amera rolled over his chest.

"Surrender!" Amera repeated her order with another form, a single word was enough to sum everything up.

"Never!" Yet the lycans' leader seemed to be far more stubborn than she initially thought.

"Just the answer I wanted to hear," Amera showed a vicious expression over her face before suddenly shouting, "you heard the man, let's put an end to their misery boys!"

The next instant the portals all over the place vanished. It seemed like they were there for show. Yet before that leader and other lycans could heave a breath of relief, the portals appeared once again in different places.

And this time they didn't stand there empty.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

All of a sudden a large number of mechas and mages appeared from these portals. They appeared in places not well defended by the lycan army down on the ground.

And so in this short first wave of attacks, a lot of lycans lay on the ground either dead or injured.

"Surrender or die!" Amera hated to repeat herself like this, but she got orders to push as many of them to surrender to her.

"Never!" the leader clenched his fists before shouting, "regroup, come together now!"

Yet the next instant the portals he was ready to fight against vanished, and then they appeared at other places. The same thing happened a couple more times before Amera changed her calling.

"Abandon your pathetic leader," she shouted, "surrender and keep your lives. It's not a big thing to be defeated today, but you'll lose everything if you die."

"Don't listen to her poisonous words," the leader hurriedly shouted, "keep standing men, we either kill them or die in the process."

"Listen to his madness," Amera didn't feel angry or annoyed at all, "despite being surrounded and outnumbered, you are asked to die for nothing. Drop your weapons now and pass into the portals without hesitation."

Her shouts caused enough stir inside the ranks of the distressed and disorganized lycans. The leader tried to persuade them not to surrender, yet the calm and silent portals that appeared next to the groups of frightened lycans posed the greatest attraction temptation to all.

"I surrender, don't kill me," it started with one frightened lycan. The moment he shouted these words he jumped instantly towards the nearest portal after throwing off his weapon to the ground.

And as one fell down, others followed. It was like dominoes, one fell and took everyone with him.

"Stand up men, fight for our great lycan clan honour!" the leader kept shouting and screaming, yet his words held no weight at all.

Especially when they were threatened with merciless monster and deadly traps of portals that ejected lethal attacks from their enemies.

It wasn't a surprise for most of the surviving lycans to choose to live instead of sacrificing everything for a worthless cause to them.

"In the end not everyone is putting his or her life underneath anything," Amera slowly said while she pointed towards the leader and a small lot of lycans who kept loyal and faithful to their cause, "kill them."

The order came and the terrifying monster instantly shifted its focus towards this small group. There were still many lycans pouring out from the hidden world they used here.
