The Holy Chronicles Of Baator
Blood And War (3)

Hearing this, all the Blood Lords present thought hard and thought about the possible outcome of their decision.

"You can; for now, we'll decide among ourselves."

Blood Lord Alexstrazs Brunestud said in a neutral voice as Zekram slowly left the meeting hall. When he came out of the meeting place, he saw Viktor was waiting for him there.

"So what do you think their decision is?"

Asked Zekram, his friend, as they sat in a nearby chair.

"It's hard to say. I can be sure that Blood Lord Kyrstia Carmilla will fight against interference. The woman was at her core an isolationist, so she would not support any kind of military expedition, especially one that attacked Heaven. You have the support of Blood Lord Valerian Tepwho, will support this with all your might for some reason, but most importantly, other than his fighting lust, Church almost killed her daughter when she was young. To him, it's personal."

Viktor said in a low voice while looking at the closed door leading to the meeting room.

"What about the other two?"

It was clear that the voice of the two remaining Blood Lords would be of great importance.

"Blood Lord Marcus Corvinus and Blood Lord Alexstrazs Brunestud are difficult to predict. They will see profits first and then the consequences. If they judged that the advantages of this alliance overshadowed the dangers, then the two would definitely agree."

Viktor explained.

"What now?"

"We had about a few hours before they called you back. I'm hungry and thirsty, so we have to go eat. We got a nice dragon steak and fresh dragon blood."

Viktor said as he licked his lips.

"I'm not a bloodsucker, but that steak sounds good."

Zekram chuckled as the two of them left.

***

The meeting room of the Blood Lords.

Alexstrazs Brunestud asked in a neutral voice.

"I'm against. We need not provoke Yahweh even more than we do. True Ancestor together is no match for that person, and if he brings some of his Great Angels here, our losses will be huge, and we can only rely on the Holy City to survive. We're as good as we are now. Moreover, this is not our conflict but a conflict between the Three Christian Factions. Let them kill each other; this has nothing to do with us and will only bring unnecessary damage and danger."

The first to oppose was Kyrstia Carmilla.

"Regarding that, I disagree with you, sister; this has everything with us. What do you think will happen if Heaven wins? If the devil and the fall are destroyed? Who's next? How much of our blood will die, then? If they lose, Yahweh's sword and his army will attack us next time, and we ourselves are not enough. Yes, we can escape with the help of a True Ancestor somewhere in the Dimensional Gap, but what about our descendants? and racing? Do you want to spend your life as a hunted mouse? I said we have to fight! This is our fight, just like the devil! We are enemies of Heaven and the Church. Those annoying pastors are hunting our young ones and killing little ones just because of their stupid faith! It's time to strike back! And I will personally lead the attack on the Vatican if possible!"

The result is expected, but the process is not. None of them waited for an emotional speech to be "rough" like Valerian.

"What about you, Marcus? At least you should be the voice of reason!"

Kyrstia said as she looked at Marcus Corvinus in hopes of finding an ally.

"I have to let you down, Kyrstia, because I agree with Valerian. Our faction also has enemies, and Heaven and the Church will do anything to exterminate us. We could save our hideout by escaping to another plane in the Dimensional Gap, but that's impossible. Sooner or later, Yahweh's sword will be directed at us because we are the so-called beings of Darkness. With the Four Great Demons holding Yahweh back, we can join forces and attack the Church and Heaven, not fearing his vengeance, while the four of us can handle the Great Angel."

Marcus Corvinus said as Kyrstia's smile fell.

"What do you think of this, Alexstrazs?"

Valerian asked as he looked at the last Blood Lord.

"Kyrstia was basically right. Yeah, it's dangerous, but it's also our fight. We need to fight; the Church has labelled us as a target of their annihilation, and what are we doing? Small battles and small fights. We need to cripple them, destroy them, and leave them without even the strength to even think of attacking us for the next thousand years. Without Heaven, the Church is nothing; we all know it. So I agree, we should help the Devil and deploy our Crimson Paladin and Battle Mage."

With this said, everything was set in stone. It was three against one; the majority of the Blood Lord felt it was suitable to no longer be passive and start an active counterattack.

If the Four Great Demons really held back Yahweh, then they could safely attack the Church and the power of Heaven.

"It was decided. The Divine Blood Faction will participate in the war against Heaven and the Church."

Alexstrazs said in a heavy voice.
