499,

Three sides in opposition, with Cyclone in the middle.

"Are you trying to stop me?"

Sophiel's words caught Alexander's attention.

Marcina has always been unpredictable, five years ago and now, no one has ever been able to understand what goes on in her mind.

She never cared about anyone's life, a mysterious girl without even a family, one could say she had no weaknesses.

But in this moment, Marcina responded.

"Stop? Oh no~ I just want to save the fun for later~"

Though her answer remained cryptic, Alexander had a premonition.

Having witnessed the use of all-attributes magic by the witch Yuna, combined with Sophiel and Marcina's connection, it was clear to Marcina who these two individuals were.

One a witch, the other a former hero of Allen, both now stripped down.

Though it might seem like a stretch, to Alexander it seemed there was something more between Marcina and Cyclone‧Theodore.

However, before the others could ponder further, the disadvantaged Yuna suddenly called out.

"Eileen! Little Dragon!"

In that instant, chaos ensued.

Eileen and Little Dragon teamed up, one on each side, restraining Sophiel's movements.

As Eileen and Little Dragon moved away, Hilmirya immediately crawled towards Cyclone.

Only Elyse, a comrade of former times, noticed Hilmirya's actions and moved forward to protect Cyclone.

Prioritizing the protection of their leader, Sonja joined the fray, flaunting herself to shield the young girl behind her.

The seven nations clashed, wives entwined in battle.

"Well done! Keep going! Yes, just like that~"

The quick-witted Cyclone swiftly retreated.

Provoking the others on one hand, she observed from a safe distance.

"Let me go!!"

"No! He is my man, he still needs to raise the child in my belly!!"

Two collide, four orbs intersect.

"Exciting~"

To create a natural barrier, Sonja blindly rushed forward.

Ahead of her, Yuna was charging towards Sophiel.

Though her surprise attack from the rear was not well executed, Sonja continued to frantically push forward.

"Hey, the target is not me~"

Sonja was well aware, but in order to create chaos in front of Alexander, she couldn't back down.

Both were shirtless, and if not for the hands contending with the sheets, Alexander would have seen everything.

Yet, exposure was not the concern. The issue was that Cyclone, witnessing their actions in bed, found it quite thrilling and couldn't help but applaud.

"Marvelous~"

Meanwhile, as Yuna was unable to launch a swift attack on Sophiel,

given the situation with Little Dragon and Eileen, they were helpless in detaining Sophiel.

After several struggles, Sophiel let go of the slender sword in her right hand in exchange for the extra strength of having one more hand to resist Eileen.

With a shove, Eileen was pushed back.

"You bitch! Don't even think about escaping!"

Even without the slender sword and being pulled by Little Dragon, Sophiel forcibly crawled towards Cyclone.

"Oh crap!"

At the sight of Cyclone, who hadn't even finished putting on his pants and was crawling away, from one side of the bed to the other where Elyse and Hilmirya were grappling.

But Sophiel was no fool, going straight to the center of the bed to chase Cyclone.

It was in that split moment that Yuna seized the opportunity.

Carrying Sonja on her back, they both pressed down on top of Sophiel.

At the same time, Elyse summoned the strength she would later use for nursing, pushing Hilmirya aside.

This push sent both of them tumbling down on top of Yuna and Sonja.

The triple pressure made the bottommost Sophiel unable to move.

Having circled to the other side of the bed, Cyclone looked at Sophiel pinned beneath the others, or more accurately, Sophiel's unmoving feet.

A thought crossed his mind.

And then, at that moment, a figure approached.

It was the flat-chested girl who had just covered her nostrils with a wand.

Without expression, the flat-chested girl produced a quill.

Cyclone stared at Marcina, and Marcina stared back.

Immediately, Marcina's fingers flicked, turning the quill into two.

Cyclone raised his hands in a "I see what you did there" expression, pointing at Marcina.

And Marcina did the same, pointing back at Cyclone with a "Of course I did" expression.

The two of them understood each other, each with a quill, one on the left and one on the right, constantly brushing against Sophiel's feet.

"Stop it!! Don't, don't do it anymore haha!! Haha!!"

The battlefield, a truly terrifying place.
