Chapter 493 – 141. Counterattack Prelude (1)
The first battle that signaled the start of the second round.
The repercussions of that battle were great.
5,000 Western Demon Kings. They confirmed it firsthand on this battlefield, Drawtail Gorge.
The strength that transcends humans possessed by Julian von Reinhardt, the ruler of the Western Demon Lords Army.
“Praise the new lord~!! Apostle of Unir~!! Great Demon Dragon Lord Julian~!!”
“The Great Demon Dragon is with us!”
“Lord Julian! Lord Julian!”
The military song was constantly resonating in the headquarters.
It wasn’t that the commanders were encouraging the soldiers.
Whether it’s a commander or a knight. Whether it’s the soldiers at the end. All of them continued to shout the name of their new master as if singing a hymn.
‘Really, military songs are like hymns…’
It wasn’t a metaphor.
Julian, who was directly appointed as an apostle by Unir.
Although Unir lost his divine power, the three demon grand dukes who shared that divine power stood by Julian’s side.
The Grand Duchess of Lust, including Ruiril, the Grand Duchess of Demons.
Although they deliberately disappeared because their owner, Unir, was here.
Instead, he was pouring all his strength into Yulian now.
So, now Julian truly has the authority of an apostle of God beyond that of the Grand Duke of Devil.
Respect or reverence for him. Or fear.
It means that all of those emotions turn into his divinity, his demonic energy.
A family member who was directly connected to Yulian through the umbilical cord. And Lucia, the incarnation of Unir, felt the change more sensitively than anyone else in the main spirit.
‘Maybe I’m watching… The birth of a new god.’
Just like there are 6 gods under Jedin.
He did not know that someday he would have the qualifications of a new god beyond that of an apostle.
Of course, that was Unir’s divinity that remained forever. The story after receiving the recognition of the rest of the demon archduke.
But Lucia was sure.
That the new myth is already writing down the sentences of the preface.
Now, three days have passed since the second game resumed.
In all three battles that took place in the meantime, the Western Demon King’s army won a great victory.
I don’t think you’ll win that much. It seems that the headquarters staff did not expect it at all.
“Your existence seems to be a great source of strength for the Western Demon Army.”
Erin told her.
Lucia nodded his head.
“I heard from Remiella-sama that the Western Demon Lord Army had a great fear of the Demon Beast Army due to their successive defeats. However, from the first battle of the second war, Julian-nim himself stood in the vanguard…”
“It was a great victory to the point of dispelling even that fear.”
A great victory under Yulian.
So, the belief that they will never lose if they are together with Julian and their master is growing stronger in the Western Demon King Army.
The two smiled together.
I met Eirin a lot since Pantheon.
And in the end, she knew that she loved Julian. Although he was caught by her exclusive maid, too.
Since that night a few days ago, the relationship between the party has changed a little.
The usual view of love did not work for Julian. Because he was a magic dragon.
So the next morning. When Julian was away.
The five of them decided to do their best to help Yulian for now. Agreement was concluded
‘I decided to go to bed only when Julian-sama wants it.’
Everyone here couldn’t control their minds, so they would secretly visit Yulian’s room. The five of them decided to refrain from doing it for the time being.
Right now, Julian wasn’t just their lover.
He is the lord of the Western Demon Army. And he has a great destiny to prevent the destruction of Island.
I could tell just by looking at the atmosphere of this headquarters.
No matter how deep despair exists. That Julian is the existence that brings hope to fill even that despair.
‘I too… I have to work harder for Julian-nim!’
Fortunately, there was a lot of work for her to do in this headquarters.
Julian’s lovers.
Except for Lucia, the other four prepared for the flood caused by Aquarius. Have already prepared in advance.
“The staff told me. It is said that the demonic power around them has deepened. It seems that Aquarite’s magical powers have begun to move.”
Eirin made a nervous expression at Lucia’s words.
The terrible battlefield that was under water that I saw when I joined the headquarters here.
It means that the battlefield can be reproduced.
When it starts raining again. This meant that the current high morale would not change.
“Now is the time for us to do what the young master asked us to do.”
But Ei-rin seems to have hardened her heart. She saw Lucia. Lucia nodded her head too.
“You guys don’t have to worry. Because I will protect you.”
That is the role Julian gave himself. Eirin smiled.
“I can trust Lucia-sama. He is a member of the White Night.”
And at those words, Lucia put on an embarrassing expression.
Even in the slums. Even in Maya. Even in the Pantheon. She who always hovered around her without a sense of belonging.
She feels secure where she belongs now. I was happy to hear that I was a member of the midnight sun.
‘And… The fact that she is Julian-sama’s prospective wife.’
So, starting from that night a few days ago, the lovers also developed a subtle bond.
Lucia hardened her heart once more.
‘If it’s Julian-sama’s lover. Soon, Julian-sama’s. As his knight, I will guard them all.’
In fact, she still had her heart to monopolize Yulian. Her desire to raise the sword for Yulian was greater than that.
‘It’s clear that I am concentrating on my work. It must be a way to appeal my existence to Yulian.’
As a woman… To be honest, Lucia wasn’t confident.
She saw other lovers’ night-time skills.
Excited, she opened other places besides her usual one. When she thought of the night’s events that day, her involuntary blush made her face red.
‘That’s not enough. Everyone… It’s so erotic… I have to work harder at night…’
That’s how Lucia solidified her resolve.
The two entered the staff barracks with the rest of the party.
And just like the last few days. All the demons who looked at Cecilia were speechless.
‘Cecile. I know it’s pretty, but… To the demons, it really looks like a goddess.’
Cecilia was like her real sister to Lucia.
Lucia looked at the scene with satisfaction. Then, she thought of Cecilia, who was more erotic than she thought.
Her involuntary blush made her blush again.
***
Meanwhile, north of Drawtail Gorge.
Aquarithe’s Demonic Beasts, their garrison.
The faces of those gathered in the commander’s barracks were serious.
Chaetic Gate Plutia’s Apostle Euranes.
The demons under the command of the apostle were suffering from a different situation than expected.
“What happened! Damn it! The Western Demon King’s army must have already been like drowning mice! Why are we struggling!”
Among them, a dark elf wearing a gorgeous tiara.
Lasliel, who serves as the commander-in-chief of the Aquarius army, was very angry.
She is a special mage chosen by the apostle Euranes.
Euranes, who was from the Dark Elves, selected excellent people from among the various clans of the Dark Elves and made them his direct subordinates.
Among them, Lasliel, who was favored by Uranes.
He gained great power that could kill even Ramiela, the high elf he was about to chew to death. The Elder Dragon Aquarithe.
‘Euranes personally entrusted Aquarithe to me… It’s really difficult at this rate.’
He gave himself the authority to control the old dragon that had become his master.
Lasliel has a bad relationship with Ramiela.
So she was very excited about the opportunity to take everything from that hateful high elf bitch.
And the plan was right on the verge of success.
The western demon army led by Ramiella was on the verge of being submerged.
But just before the sinking. The former Demon King’s son. Julian von Reinhardt appeared on the battlefield.
‘Damn it! What the hell is that kid If it’s Reinhardt, he’s definitely not human? But… How can he be so strong!’
Uranes warned Lasliel before leaving for Drotale Gorge.
– The great one also said. The only person who would interfere with his work from now on was that young man from the Reinhard family. If you happen to meet him Don’t overdo it and make sure to bring Aquarite back.
Indeed, that has become a reality.
Because of him, he failed to submerge the Western Demon King’s army.
So, the 2nd round prepared by quickly gathering troops.
However, in the second game, he tasted damage three times.
In particular, the first confrontation between the vanguard was a humiliating defeat to the extent that teeth trembled even now.
The most elite monsters specially selected from Aquarite’s nest. Those monsters couldn’t do anything and turned into pieces of meat.
“Your Excellency Lasliel. As expected, as His Highness Euras said, we must return Aquarithe as well…”
“Dogs!! His Highness directly entrusted me with the destruction of the Western Demon King’s Army! If we push them a little further… If we use the power of Aquarithe, we’re sure we’ll reap a great victory. Absolutely unstoppable!”
At those words, the commanders gathered in the barracks fell silent.
But none of them objected anymore.
Lasliel’s opposition did not discourage her. Even in the same Dark Elf, even among the various clans within it, the power struggle was fierce.
The head of the clan to which the commanders belong is Lasliel. If she returns Aquarite like this.
Lasliel’s faction was about to lose its power.
However, if the western part of the Demon Kingdom is devastated like this. In one breath, Laslie’s family could become the next royal family of the Demon Kingdom, which would later be swallowed up by the apostles.
Besides Lasliel’s personal reasons. Everyone here was full of reasons why they couldn’t retreat from this battlefield.
“That person named Julian is definitely a variable. No strong person in the world can go against natural disasters.”
And one of the Dark Elf generals who was in charge of the staff of the camp said.
Everyone seemed to agree with what he said.
“That’s right! If we activate Aquarithe’s power once more… If we submerge the southern lowlands of this Drotale Gorge… Even if that Julian survives, we can destroy the Western Demon King’s Army!”
Lasliel smiled bitterly.
The staff member was right. He didn’t have to deal directly with that Julian.
Aquarius can create storms with the power of the Elder Dragon. It was a natural disaster that insignificant humans or demon wizards could never create.
‘It’s impossible even if dozens or even hundreds of 7th tier great mages unite.’
Not a local storm. A storm that covered the entire canyon.
Naturally, a river flows through this gorge.
If you flood that river once again. His legions will remain as corpses submerged in water.
Lasliel exclaimed.
“When Aquarite can use its power again. When does that magic power reach its maximum?”
“Just two days later. Just in time, the priests expected it to rain.”
Her expression grew more confident.
“Good night! Get a perfect victory like this. Our clan will be favored by Lord Euranes!”
At those words, the commanders shouted words of victory together.
And two days later
The commanders of the Witchbeast Army, including Lasliel, witnessed an unbelievable sight.
