"Run" 

As soon as the two devils heard the Field Marshal's whisper they scattered and ran toward the red light curtain in opposite directions of each other. 

When there were three of them they did not have the confidence of going against the Field Marshal, now when it was just the two of them they did not even entertain that thought and just ran for their lives. 

However, reaching the red light curtain they found that they could not enter it to return to travel to the real dark realm from this makeshift one. 

"Frog, why can't I enter the gateway?" the furry devil yelled at the frog devil and turned to find that the frog devil too could enter the red light curtain that brought them here. Thinking of something, it asked the Frog Devil aloud, "Frog, you did get her to sign a contract to cancel the summon once we help her, right?"

Unable to enter the red light curtain the frog devil grew distressed, and answered in frustration, "I did. I had her enter a contract stating that she will cancel the summons if we destroy the dungeon from outside or help her enter it. I even made sure to specify that she should immediately cancel the summons after getting what she wants." 

"Then why are we not able to enter the dungeon gate?" the Furry Devil enquired, finding it hard to believe that Ada would ignore the contract risking her life. 

"I don't know why," Frog Devil answered, then a sudden thought crossed its mind and it screamed, "Unless she did not enter the dungeon and is standing at the edge of the dungeon gate." 

"That bitch—" the Furry Devil paused in the middle of cursing Ada as it felt a presence above it. It was none other than the Field Marshal. 

Then under the gaze of the Field Marshal, the Furry Devil felt an external energy filling its body at incredible, pretty soon it started to feel bloated and sluggish. 

The external energy had filled to the brim in its body' cells long ago but it kept stuffing inside its body's cells through force until every cell in the Furry Devil was rendered immobile. 

The Furry Devil hadn't experienced anything like this before it was scared and confused. It tried to move its energies but found that they were too sluggish and would not move matter how much it commanded them to. 

Then the Field Marshal's hand pierced its left shoulder and dug out its devil core. Storing its devil core, the Field Marshal threw the Furry Devil's body barely alive next to the barely alive Bug-eyed Devil and Lady Devil Erving. 

Then the Field Marshal slowly made her way to the Frog Devil. Hurting other devils did mean much to the Field Marshal but this one she was disgusted by it and not to mention it was the one who tricked her.

Seeing the Field Marshal near it, having witnessed the end of its allies it did not dare to fight against the Field Marshal. Rather it activated its last resort without hesitation. 

The Frog Devil's last resort was not a power attack skill but more of a defense skill that would guarantee its survival against any kind of enemy. 

"Thousand Tadpole Works," shouting that the Frog Devil shot all of the spikes on its body in the surrounding area. Then its skin fell to the ground lifelessly. 

In the Air, the thousand or so spikes of the Frog devil burst like fireworks. However, it was far from a firework as each of these spikes spewed billions of microscope tadpoles in the air which showered down on the ground. 

"Disgusting, Fire Rule- Infernal Inferno," Soon a storm of Fire rule power swept the entire inside the blood dome of darkness while avoiding the dungeon gate and the fragile bodies of the three devils burning all the tadpoles of the frog devil. 

With her eyes, the Field Marshal scan the entire area under the blood dome of darkness, and finding no trace of the Frog devil she relaxed. Then she scanned the frog devil's dried-up skin to find that there was no devil core in it. 

Upon discovery, the Field Marshal shook her head understanding that the Frog Devil's last resort was a rebirth type of skill with came at the cost of consuming its devil core. However, even if one of its tadpoles manages to survive it can be reborn again. 

So as of now technically the Frog Devil was dead. With that Field Marshal had defeated all four of the devils, and as a result, the Blood Dome of Darkness covering the dual gate dungeon vicinity shattered into pieces, and the red light curtain surrounding the vicinity of the dual gate dungeon was lifted. 

As for the Field Marshal, she returned to her original spot and stood guard at the dungeon gate with the bodies of the three devils stacked in front of her. She did not appear to worry about Ada entering the dungeon. 

Then a teleportation circle formed next to her and a figure appeared in it. It was Lorenzo, her husband. Nodding at her husband the Field Marshal handed him the three devil cores and then pointing at the bodies of the three devils she said, "I told you I will get you the ingredients for the array formation didn't I?" 

"Yes, you did," Lorenzo answered with a wide smile. Taking the devil cores from his wife, Lorenzo headed towards the bodies of three devils and examining them he informed, "They will do. I will start setting up the array formation right away." 

"Are the preparations inside the dungeon done? A rat managed to escape in it," Field Marshal answered emotionlessly. 

"..." Lorenzo was surprised to hear someone managed to get past his wife and enter the dungeon. It took him a while to process it and then he replied, "Yes, all preparations inside the dungeon are done. Let's hope the rat is strong enough to test-run them for us." 

…

The dungeon gate was like a small tunnel and Ada stood by the edge of it without entering it and waited there, till the Field Marshal killed the remaining two devils, muttering to herself, "Devils don't own a patent on trickery. Even if they did, I am a part devil it should amount to something." 

Just then Ada saw a drop of fluid enter the dungeon gate, upon a closer look the drop appeared to contain thousands of tadpoles. Curious, Ada captured the drop and stored it safely. Thinking that it will make a perfect gift for her Master.
