Western Fantasy: The Princess Wants to Save the World

The music of the bards echoed in the central square.

The city lord continued his passionate speech - talking about the future, ideals, and development...

The city lord used almost every possible means to motivate everyone, but still no one was willing to go to the front line.

There was still no response from the people in the square, and many residents had already left.

They don't want the so-called future, the so-called ideals, the so-called development, they just want to live.

The city of Aslade is located on the border with the demon clan. Although they have lived and multiplied safely for hundreds of years relying on the natural terrain, their understanding of the demon clan is generally higher than that of outsiders.

No matter which demon race it is, they all have advantages over humans, let alone the vampires, which are the second most difficult to deal with.

The soldiers are fighting outside, don’t they know?

Of course they know.

But what does this have to do with them?

The city lord looked at the people in front of him with some despair. Is this city where he was born and raised destined to become the first territory of the demons to invade humans?

"We, the Wandering Adventurer Guild, are willing to contribute to resisting the demon invasion!"

Someone in the crowd shouted something loudly, like the sound of a morning bell echoing over the square.

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a woman in the crowd holding up a flag with a falcon pattern slowly walking towards the center where the city lord was.

The flag has a red background and the falcon pattern is in the middle of the flag.

The woman shouted loudly again, "A total of 3,217 members of the Wandering Adventurers Guild in Aslaide City have volunteered to join the team to resist the invasion of the demons, and swear to live and die together in Aslaide City!"

3217 people, this number is not too large, but it is definitely not a small number.

The city lord looked at the woman who looked somewhat familiar, but he couldn't even remember her name.

As for the Wandering Adventurers' Guild she mentioned, he had heard of it, but only as a small, unknown guild. How could it have 3217 members?

And have they all joined the team to resist the invasion of demons?

Before the city lord could react, the woman continued, "In addition, I have notified the presidents of the branch guilds in the nearby city-states by letter, and they will also join the team to resist the demons."

As she spoke, the woman stood beside the city lord and looked back at the few people in the square. "I know that my strength is limited and just a drop in the bucket, but I think my decision is meaningful. If anyone is willing to join us and contribute to the land where they once lived, please don't hesitate! We need everyone's help and support, whether it's spiritual or material, whether it's practical or verbal support, please don't let the soldiers fighting for us on the front line feel disheartened!"

She was still answered with silence. She was obviously not disappointed. She took a deep breath and was about to say something else when she heard someone in the crowd say, "Elsie Chamber of Commerce is willing to provide funds to feed the soldiers on the front line!"

With this person taking the lead, the rest of the people didn't seem to hesitate. "I'm willing to cook for the soldiers before the demons break through the city gate!"

“I’d like to offer vegetables!”

"I would like to..."

The city lord stared in amazement as people in the square rushed to speak.

Yes, they don't want to go to the front line.

They admit it even if you say they are selfish and afraid of death.

But in the end, those soldiers were actually protecting their homes.

They have the right to leave, but naturally they also have the right to stay and fight to the death.

"Until the demons broke through the city gates."

No one believed that the soldiers outside could really defeat the demons and send them fleeing in all directions.

They were more inclined to believe that the demons would break through their city gates sooner or later.

But no matter what, they finally chose to stay.

Unlike the city lord who was stunned, the president of the Wandering Adventurers' Guild had already organized the members of their guild to start registering these residents.

It would be bad if we get carried away now and then regret it and deny our decision later.

This passionate power began to spread in the city. Facing the sudden attack from the vampires outside the city, Droville quickly arranged the battle situation, and the large force was already heading towards the location reported by the patrol members.

When the patrol encountered the group of vampires, surprisingly, neither side took the initiative to attack.

Stalemate.

They all maintained a posture ready to attack at any time, but no one took the first move.

The soldiers on patrol were betting on whether their reinforcements would arrive first or the vampires' reinforcements would arrive first.

The first one to arrive is the winner, the first one to arrive is the blood clan reinforcements...

Just fight to the death!

It's not that there was no sound at all where Cecilia was, but the sound was tacitly blocked outside and Cecilia didn't even know it.

There are still many soldiers who have been assimilated by the vampires.

Cecilia could no longer remember how many soldiers she had relieved.

This efficiency is too slow.

After relieving another soldier, Cecilia decisively turned her attention to Finnian.

This relief process actually does not require a lot of magic, but the internal precautions are a bit complicated. Cecilia is now going by the name of "Leslie Ann" and is a mute, so it is difficult and troublesome to explain.

There is no way to solve the problem. Just teach one person first, and then one person teaches another. With more people knowing, efficiency can be improved.

She walked to Finnian's side, and words were quickly written on the vellum that appeared out of thin air. "After watching for so long, do you know how to ease the assimilation of the vampires?"

Release of barrier magic was not a difficult matter, and the mechanized operation allowed Finnian to focus only on how Leslian was easing assimilation.

Finnian understood a lot of Leslie Ann's magic in the process, but some parts were not very clear to him, "I'm curious why some soldiers' duplicate blood is from the same person, but sometimes not?"

A very pointed question.

Cecilia explained as best as she could, and Finnian was silent for a moment as he looked at Leslian's answer. "Maybe I can try it, but you have to watch over me first, in case anything goes wrong with me."

Cecilia thought Finnian might have some problems, but when she saw him directly asking her to try, Cecilia hesitated. However, time was running out, so she had to grit her teeth and nod in agreement.

The soldiers who were about to be assimilated felt somewhat uneasy when they saw that the magician in charge had been replaced.

Seeing the previous magician behind the new magician, he felt relieved and didn't ask any more questions.

Finnian was obviously not very skilled in the process of alleviating the assimilation of the vampires. The blood exchange magic looked simple, but it required great concentration to operate. If one was even a little careless, he might make mistakes.

Stumbling and struggling, with Leslie Ann's half-reminder and half-help, Finnian completed the soldier's assimilation.
