Alice sharply swung her right hand that held her sword’s grip at
the goblins lined up at the front, lost at whether to obey their
greed or fear. The hundreds of petals danced through the air with
light zaas, forming dense vertical stripes between Alice and the
enemy army.

Alice gave a subdued proclamation while gazing at the demihumans
through the fence gleaming golden.

“This is the wall dividing the Human World and the Land of
Darkness. Even if you dig through the caves, you will not defile
this earth as long as we knights live. Choose—to advance and fall
into a sea of blood, or to retreat and flee back to the Land of
Darkness!!”

Not even five seconds passed before the goblin vanguards turned
back with great force.
