Chapter 38: Preying and Preying
We did it, won the fight easily. Of course, this would not work at all without a strategy, that's true. But, the confidence and abilities of the soldiers were also the most important thing. Even though the war was over, we decided to stay for a while. Currently, they were treating and recovering energy. There are also those who are celebrating our victory.
"Honor to the young master" said a black shadow appearing suddenly.
"Say" I said calmly as I continued to write illuminated with lanterns.
"I've been in love with him, there's no suspicion of a follow-up attack."
"What do you mean?" I was shocked, and spontaneously shifted his gaze.
"The news of the destruction of Dimitri's forces has spread, but still, there is no suspicious movement that indicates they are going back to attack"
"How could the demon lord's army be just that much? Besides seeing from the nature of Dimitri .. still he is the type of king who is careless and as good as he wants to decide something. Is it possible that his brain started spinning huh?" Sarkas.
"U-ugh. Could it be?" Speak the shadow with a resigned expression.
"Alright, then what else do you need to report?
"Ah, but before that let the servant ask"
"..."
"Why do you think Dimitri will carry out a follow-up attack? Although based on his greedy and arrogant nature, he has already faced you twice, then he should have chosen the most favorable decision for him,"
"Ah, that's right, but I don't know, the teacher reminded me to be vigilant, not on Dimitri, but on the person behind him, after all since we got the victory, I felt a bad feeling, that's all "
"Uhmm, so so,"
"And again, if we leave aside his careless nature, he also has greedy and greedy desires. In other words, he will allow all means to achieve his goal."
"The power of the demon throne is not a weak little kingdom. The fact that they became the main enemy of the human empire showed that they were not weak enemies. At the very least, facing them was tantamount to facing the human empire, right?"
"Surely, when one of the demon lords is uprooted by a human, they won't stay silent."
"Oh, I understand."
"Then, is there anything else you want to report?"
"Ah, there was someone who visited Dimitri's palace this afternoon, it seems that he was a demon who wanted to take over Dimitri's power."
"Hmm? I don't really know, but from the aura that emanated, she should almost match Dimitri."
I was surprised, reflexively putting the pen in my hand out loud.
I grieve. Rise up from my place. "Tsk. Don't tell me if it's"
My words choked when I recalled the warning from the master.
'Whatever it is, be careful. If you're off guard, he'll pull the common thread of your plan easily. At that time, you will come face to face with one of his strongest pawns, the great Demon Emperor. Remember, the Great Demon Emperor was only a weak pawn in the hands of the actual ruler.'
The black shadow was shocked.
"Prepare the troops." I said soft and cold.
"Well" said the shadow swiftly.
I grabbed my weapon, a long, slender sword with black iron. And then came out to Bartolomeo.
"e eh? Respect your majesty" said Bartolomeo, who was drinking while bowing his body when he saw me coming out to him.
"Prepare the troops, this will be a sea of blood" I said firmly. The surprised Bartolomeo immediately ran.
I kept my feet up, approaching towards the white fortress. The troops immediately gathered with the Emirate attached to their respective bodies.
I stepped, in front of me saw the soldiers. Still with the tired expressions of those they tried to cover up with their courage.
"Honor to the leader!" Say them in unison when they look at me, the leader.
I signaled to re-establish their bodies.
I took a deep breath before returning to exhale it, gathering determination. "I know how tired you are! How much you want to get back to your family! I know how longing you will be for your calm in the city!"
"I know, maybe it's hard for you guys, but there's no way! The enemy troops will attack again soon! There's no way home! Kill or be killed! Raise your weapons as high as you can, echo the name of Qrystial in the ears of traitors!" I'm firm.
Immediately, the shocked warriors then showed their bold expressions, filled with stamina that was burning again.
I turned and lowered my face. A stream of red liquid seeped from the corner of my lips.
'Damn, I'm running out of Mana, but this war must be won no matter what the circumstances.'
