As the warriors fought within the chaos and lee, the dhans at the back were already catching wind of their sovereign's defeat. Breaking ranks and fleeing to all directions possible. Anywhere to get away from the fighting. Their previous vigour and will was shattering as Xian Par'Talucca's royal presence no longer empowered their minds.
Within such a chaotic ss, Clam and Gary had managed to penetrate all the way to Chloe's position. Gladly helping the half-elf down the corpse mountain as their squadrons ford a shield wall.
Rosemi, however, was quick to break out of formation herself. Throwing, flipping and lifting corpses and bodies and in attempt to find Robin or the duke. She knew that if Robin Sol were to perish, due to their soul-connection. Then it very well could an that Asai De Trichia had also died in combat.
Thus, the girl relentlessly searched and searched, even ignoring the cuts and scratches her hands went through upon recklessly shoving her hands under corpses and eting shattered steel.
...
After an hour of prolonged slaughter, the enemies that had chosen to die a warrior's death had all entered eternal slumber. Rosemi, was down upon her knees. Her heart was in shambles, as she was simply unable to find either of the two.
Chloe had instantly collapsed, falling asleep the mont she allowed her nerves to relax. Olivia, already making her way to the group was busy casting as many [Heal] as she could. Prioritizing the most wounded.
The dwarves, noticing the battle to be over, had already dematerialized.
Duke Jeffrey and Duchess Alyssa flanked their daughter upon both sides. Helping her off the ground as her legs limply swayed. The girl simply had no energy left to move, as only tears fell upon her cheeks. Smudging and passing through the blood that covered her entirety. Regardless of the blood, gore and ss that covered their little flower. Her parents embraced her tightly, allowing her sobs to go unheard by the n around.
Lucas and his party who were bodyguarding the nobles caught sight of sothing off in the horizon.
"Look, over there!" He pointed.
Over the corpses, in the horizon were two bright holy swords that hovered gently above the half-elf. Gently flickering as if its energy source was about to bottom out.
Mizumi was carrying the larger-man Asai De Trichia upon her back with Mizumi's assistance. Robin Sol, herself was being assisted by Miku.
The four of them were covered in wounds, cuts, bruises, gore and blood. Their gears riddled with fractures and missing pieces. They even had a few throwing-stars still lodged into their thighs as they prioritized the duke's health.
Mizumi herself had lost her left eye, whilst Miku now had a permanent scar upon her right cheek which Mimi mirrored.
The man himself, was barely breathing. Barely holding on to dear life. A result of Robin, forcefully throwing her into range, and sharing her lover's pain and damage, that was soul-crunching.

Rosemi ran over with her parents in tow. Screaming for Olivia's assistance, who quickly did her utmost, showering the man with her [Heal] all until she ran out of mana herself. Clutching upone her chest, as her heart rapidly beat. She chugged a mana potion before Jeffrey stopped her from overdoing it.
"That's enough. He's alright now lady. He just needs rest now."
Robin Sol, clutched her man's hand tightly, as she gazed upon his slowly rising chest. Rosemi had buried her face into his stomach, smothering him with her tears.
"Asai did it. He killed Par'Talucca's king. Xian Par'Talucca is dead. We can go ho now..."
After the knights who marched from Del Lagos were loaded upon wagons and carriages. Trichia's knights would find themselves returning to their duchy. Having completed their task, Jeffrey and his wife Alyssa would remain behind to colonize and build upon Aevraury. Successfully turning it into human territory as they planted their flags across the realm.
It would be months later until the humans found the ancient teleportation portal, that led directly into Par'Talucca. However, for now. Asai De Trichia once again found himself comatose. Missing his birthday as he slept for months, surviving on potions.
...
And although she wasn't able to physically be there in person. Victoria Del Lagos was shared Goddess Loha's eagle vision. If it wasn't for Loha's early intervention. Forcing Victoria into a deal just as her father once entered. Asai and his party would've perished on this day. Failing to truly cleanse the assassin nace.
Whilst the deal allowed her to order the urgency of reinforcents, and the information of Asai's general location for this ambush. The price of such information and foresight ca at great costs.
Her firstborn son, after his birth, Victoria Del Lagos' body will beco infertile, forevermore.
