Chapter 1064: Clash Of Monstrous Armies
-----
Since the defeat of Mammon that the army of Draconic Aberrations, Dragon Born Lizardmen, and the Demons that were given to Fafnir's army from Mammon, had intensified their attack against the barriers surrounding the port city and the Rosenheim dukedom.
It was as if the death of Mammon had triggered something on them. Maybe because they no longer needed to do things slowly as Mammon wanted, they became insistent in destroying the last bits of life left in the continent and claim everything as Fafnir's domain.
Rosenheim, Everfrost, and Sapphirus watched the army of Blake's one thousand dragon familiars charge against the monstrous army outside. Their eyes seemed clearly concerned about what awaited these younglings in the future, but they had seen the extent of their amazing abilities and trusted them more than ever before now.
"They defeated Mammon and even healed almost all the people he cursed and turned into monsters… Us included," Everfrost sighed. "If there is anybody in this continent that can finally fight back, it's surely them. My son has truly done as he promised and brought with him someone that could really… save us."
"No doubt about that, mother-in-law," Rosenheim nodded. "Elfriedden has grown so much stronger now too, both in strength and also mentally. It might be all thanks to Blake and his new friends. The boy that was once bullied and ignored by his family, that was rejected by his father as a "failure" has now come back and become perhaps our only hope, aside from his friends."
"Since I knew my boy that I knew he was destined for great things," Everfrost smiled. "I never ever doubted him."
"Big bro will save the continent!" Sapphirus said happily.
"Well… Although Elfriedden is very strong, he's not near enough to save it."
Someone quickly came with a blunt, yet true set of words.
A beautiful half-elf woman with long pink hair appeared, Cattalina, Erika's mother.
She came walking from behind the trio, her magic aura surging from her body.
"Lady Catalina! So you stayed…" said Everfrost. "And… Well yes, my son would never be enough. We've reached a point where we are fighting against forces way beyond our control. Only a Summoner who can summon entire armies, could ever stand a chance at the end. But he's helping, and that is good enough for us."
"Yeah, we know that without the summoner, none of these plans could ever be set in motion," said Rosenheim. "After all, they're going against millions of foes now. Not even thousand or tens, nor even hundreds of thousands… But it has been reported that there's roughly ten million monstrosities roaming the entire continent.
To think of them as being wiped out in a couple of days… It sounds utterly delusional and insane."
"But with someone as incredible as Blake, and his miraculous powers… Somehow, it might work. It creates the illusion in your head that maybe it is not impossible, that even in this ridiculous situation, we can still have hope," Everfrost sighed with a smile.
"That's right… Though my daughter and Elizabeth too, will be very necessary for what's to come," said Cattalina. "Especially my daughter… What she has become is something I never thought possible. The only way for her to truly revive, also put upon her shoulders an immense responsibility. I wonder if Blake has ever told my daughter, what she must do…"
"Erika?" wondered Everfrost. "What… do you mean?"
Cattalina sighed, with a smile still in her face.
"Aside from Blake, my daughter… might be the only person that could ever save your entire continent, and Yggdrasil," Cattalina said. "You will see what she will have to do… And the sacrifice she might have to take."

Silence took over, as Cattalina looked Blake's army initiate their battle against the Draconic Aberrations and the Dragon Born Lizardmen Armies.
"Goodspeed my daughter, I know you can do it…" she smiled. "I will protect this place as you asked me, even with my life on the line."
CLAAASH!
The sound of the Draconic Monstrosities and the armies of armed and armored Dragon Born Lizardmen reverberated across the burned forest wasteland, which stretched through the majority of the continent.
Because all the verdant and lush forests had been burned and destroyed, what remained were dead trees and stumps of old, gigantic trees that once lived for thousands of years. At least 98% of the continent was ravaged, becoming a wasteland of fire and ash.
Blake's army was composed of his most recent additions to his Familiars, which he had obtained from Bestellen's dungeon. The White Mithril Drakes and their Queens, with their tremendous defenses acting as tanks, rushing in the frontlines, the Draconian Sea Serpents acting as buffers and long-ranged attackers that used their powerful water spells to unleash devastating area-of-effect destruction.
The Giant Mithril Dragonoids, humanoid and smart, capable of riding the other dragons and using armors, magic tools, and weapons that Blake provided them, and lastly, the strongest of them all, the Venomous Viper Drake Hydra, deadly, gigantic draconic familiars with nine heads and enormous sizes surpassing thirty meters. Their venom was so deadly it could easily melt most things.
Their draconic appearance was sure alarming to their foes, the Draconic Lizardmen, with blacks cales and strong, muscular bodies, were completely dwarfed before the Mithril Dragonoids in both size, strength, and might, perhaps only winning in intelligence.
Meanwhile, the Mithril Drakes were able to easily tank the incoming bombardment of thousands of dragon breaths from the Amorphous, Draconic Monstrosities of all shapes and sizes, all blessed with the elements of holy, fire, and ice, they were even able to withstand the power of demonic energy within these aberrations made by Fafnir!
The Draconic Sea Serpents unleashed waves after waves of oceanic water, washing away their foes and confusing them, at the same time as freezing the water and trapping dozens or hundreds of foes within enormous ice monuments, which were quickly shattered into pieces by the other familiars, Blake, and his friends.
The almighty Hydras remained right behind the Mithril Drakes, unleashing their explosive breaths of acidic, all-consuming venom, melting alive the enemy troops by the dozens, and then hundreds!
What the Generals of the Draconic Lizardmen thought as a pitiful attempt at overcoming their army of thousands with only one thousand… quickly became a serious threat.
Until the point it was too late to reconsider, and their heads were already rolling over the floor.
