Chapter 99.2
To one side also waiting for me were four of the old seven demon emperors consisting of Melheys, Aivis, Gaius and Idol.
“I’ve talked to Eleonor.” (Arnos)
Everyone nodded with serious expressions.
They have Eleonor and Zeshia along with <Ask>.
“This is the battle I left behind 2000 years ago.” (Arnos)
Both Avos Dillheavia and the hero academy caused this situation because I couldn’t see through them.
“None of you need to be involved in this.” (Arnos)
Melhey’s and the other demon emperors kneel at my words.
“My lord, you are Arnos Voldigod-sama the demon king of tyranny. How can we seven demon emperors overlook the insolent fool claiming to be you?” (Melheys)
The demon emperors bow their heads to me.
“Please. Give us your orders.” (Melheys)
Each of the girls in my fan union spoke up.
“We’ll also fight though we may be useless.” (fan union)
“War is unpleasant though…..” (fan union)
“I’ll do my best!” (fan union)
I turn to look at Misa and she nodded.
“Avos Dillheavia has appeared which means the mixed-race mazoku will become increasingly more vulnerable…… He’s the fake demon king so this is also my fight.” (Misa)
“I don’t want to hear that from you now. You didn’t tell me to become a subordinate so I don’t have to listen to you. Did you think I’d stop just because you’re up against Deiruheido and Azeshion? I’ll fight with you even if you antagonise the whole world.” (Sasha)
Misha nods in agreement.
“Arnos is right.” (Misha)
“Not always.” (Arnos)
“Even if it was wrong Arnos gave me life. My life is always with Arnos.” (Misha)
Finally, Ray speaks in a relaxed tone.
“You’re my friend.” (Ray)
I speak to that loyalty and friendship.
“I’m blessed with good subordinates and good friends.” (Arnos)
I don’t belong to either army so I can turn two countries into my enemy.
Over there is a mazoku from the age of myths that has the spirit god sword in his hands. It’s also reasonable to think that the hero academy has one or two trump cards.
You can’t make this decision with light-hearted determination.
“Melheys, Aivis, Gaius and Idol. Suppress the enemies seven demon emperors Medin, Zoro and Eldora.” (Arnos)
I’ll hit the Deiruheido forces first.
I’ve roughly grasped the hero academy war potential but Avos is still an unknown and since I don’t know anything about him I’ll defeat him first.
The fight with the old seven demon emperors is 4 vs 3 but as long as we have Melheys we can’t lose.
“Sasha and Misha. I want you to seal the feet of the mazoku gathering in the west before they join the main force. Since it’s far from the border I don’t think they will attack once the chain of command is severed.” (Arnos)
The plains on the way there will be good for Sasha. She can limit their magic with her <Demon Eyes of Ruin> and Misha can create obstacles such as walls and cages using <Ibis> to hamper their progress.
“Misa and the fan union. Hide in <Fuska>, create disturbances and gather intelligence.” (Arnos)
It’s dangerous to have them on the front lines. I’ll have them serve as logistical support.
“And me?” (Ray)
“You kick the army coming from the east around a bit. Don’t let them cross the border.” (Arnos)
That’s the advance party made up of the royals who were the first to follow Avos. Even with the current Ray, this will be a tough fight but that man will crash through that wall during the battle.
“I’ll hit their main headquarters. According to what I’ve seen a huge demon king castle has been built on Eiyan hill. Avos is probably in it.” (Arnos)
Aivis speaks up.
“If I go wild he’ll have no choice but to show up.” (Aivis)
If he doesn’t come out I can go directly to the castle.
It was worth letting Avos roam free as he’s going for bold actions now.
I won’t let him escape anymore.
“This is an order. Don’t die and don’t kill. I don’t want anyone dying in this pathetic battle.” (Arnos)
You never know whats going to happen on the battlefield but this game won’t be determined through simple power.
I’ve seen many powerful people die without doing anything.
In all honesty, you should never go easy on your enemies but even though this is purely my selfishness they all nodded without hesitation.
“We will all meet here again and with no one missing.” (Arnos)
