"Your Highness, isn't it too dangerous to take the risk of confronting the enemy directly?" The Guild Master firmly opposed what had just been discussed.Alicia looked at people's faces; only she was able to determine what action should be taken, and her decision would determine the current situation."I don't want to say this, but it seems that something like this cannot be underestimated! The enemy has already invaded various regions, and it's difficult to let them continue their actions! If left to continue, all of this will lead to unimaginable destruction! I don't want to let this happen, and we must take action! Even if, in the end, I'll be seen as a tyrant, then I'm ready to accept the consequences..."Alicia's readiness had gone too far; they couldn't oppose something like this.Even though the words uttered by the Guild Master didn't seem to have any effect, it appeared that Alicia remained firm in her thoughts."I don't mind what you'll command; indeed, it would be more trou
“So what preparations are you going to make for this problem?”Upon arriving at the inn, Nadena immediately posed the question.“I don't need to make excessive preparations…” Azazel replied, gazing towards the sky as the atmosphere slowly transitioned into night. “I'll handle it under these conditions; it's enough.”Hearing this, Nadena was certainly surprised. How could she imagine someone intending to carry out a covert assassination mission without thorough preparation?But, upon reflection, she realized she was speaking to Azazel, an individual with a cold demeanor, always ready to take various actions.“Are you planning to involve me in this mission?”Azazel glanced briefly at Nadena, his eyes reflecting a sense of doubt. Finally, he shook his head slowly.“I already thought you would refuse…” Not feeling frustrated, Nadena instead welcomed this decision gladly.“This mission isn’t just about killing; I have to infiltrate an enemy environment full of danger. Such a task won't be
Whoosh! Whoosh...It was no problem for Azazel to cover long distances, like a ninja who can run very fast.He could travel quite quickly and arrive at a location marked on the map in about 4 hours.However, before entering the environment, he ensured its safety first. His main goal was clear: here, he only needed to conduct an investigation.Skillfully, he sneaked around, observing many people doing their activities.Many of their faces are full of worry, filled with weariness in facing these difficult situations.They were tired of the wars that had been ongoing for several years. The residents there didn't seem pleased with the situation either.Casually, Azazel walked through the city streets. The fortress before him was covered by a dense wall, but he wasn't completely sure this fortress would be able to protect all residents.Moreover, this was now the last fortress. It was natural the palace side was truly concerned about the condition of this fortress. If this fort were to be
Kaboom...A beam of light illuminated the location accompanied by a deafening roar; those inside the city could feel the rush of strong wind."What's happening over there?" asked Rafelina, her eyes wide open.Indeed, she wasn't the only one confused. Everyone was in a state of confusion due to this incident, staring toward the source of the explosion.As the spreading smoke began to dissipate, the soldiers on the walls witnessed a large crater emerging in the middle of the plain."What's going on?"Everyone asked, feeling as if this were a dream. However, this was undeniably a fact.Some time ago, Azazel had contemplated this fact. Human life and that of other beings are very fragile. So, as a powerful creature, he initiated a plan. What if those who kill also experience the same fear?Those who were still alive trembled thinking about this—a red light in the form of fireballs falling, creating such a massive explosion.The once large troops were now drastically reduced, leaving only
A great force had decimated a large troops, the news reached the ears of the king named Hiegnar, a figure with a thick beard and a fierce face.He was the only person dubbed as a tough man after several generations of rulers in the Naveliam Kingdom.A kingdom with such high supremacy, possessing a military might be nearly impossible to be defeated by various neighboring kingdoms.Over the past few years, he had conquered many regions, holding them under his cruel control.His system forced the entire population to be segregated based on race, lineage, and caste.Slaves didn't only come from other races, but also from those less fortunate.Famines frequently occurred in this region, but instead of offering solutions, they massacred everyone they deemed unworthy.Women were made as toys, while men were executed, often displayed in front of many, especially the nobility.The caste system in this area was very strict, where even ordinary citizens were treated badly, despite having suffici
Some time ago..."Are you sure you're going alone?" Nadena said with a hesitant expression.She glanced sideways, her feet fidgeting nervously. She felt embarrassed to say something to Azazel."Yes..." Azazel's answer was clear; he wouldn't cancel all the plans."But if you leave, what should I do?""Didn't you already have activities planned to read those mysterious books?"Nadena glanced at the stack of books mentioned. It wasn't completely wrong; from the start, she intended to spend time researching the content of those books."But if you go alone, there's a possibility they might trap you..."Azazel shook his head. "That will never happen; I've often undertaken activities like this alone..."This also explains how unimportant Nadena's position was. Even without her, Azazel would definitely succeed. It was deeply painful for a woman to feel unimportant to others.Her face could only droop despondently; the arguments given were just empty words, useless."But, I still have to worry
"How is this possible? Isn't there anything I can do?" Alicia felt very stupid, even though her current situation was safe, it likely wouldn't last long, as death was waiting for her.Both women exchanged intense gazes; the battle was not completely in Nana's favor yet.Although managing to land a blow on Nadena, Nana still had to be cautious. The witch still appeared to stand firm, and her energy flow began to change drastically."What will this woman do? She's a witch, and her power must reside in the magic wand or some other object…"She glanced at the magic wand in Nadena's left hand, emitting a bright light, a dazzling blue radiance."Very well, I'll give you an interesting performance!"The magic wand was lifted, creating a wide circle that expanded until a creature appeared within it.Summoning magic, Dread Warrior. However, this time it was different; the Dread Warrior before had a much leaner physique, resembling a normal knight.The significant difference lay in the immense
Heignar's head was truly confused and dizzy; he didn't have many chances left to conquer the territory led by Alicia."How dare that woman refuse my desires. I must conquer this entire territory, that way I will become the strongest..."However, he felt fear regarding an enemy with high combat strength. Logically, a kingdom of this size could not possibly be defeated by a much smaller kingdom.For waging war, at the very least, the smaller kingdom should possess the strength of a formidable knight, or a wonder to achieve victory.He knew very well that Alicia and all the residents of her kingdom had started to lose resources for survival. For several years, they had been relentlessly squeezed until their farmland, plantations, and livestock were conquered.They wouldn't be able to continue surviving in this condition, and even if they wanted to fight back, the chances of winning were no more than 6 percent.Several theories emerged that left Heignar completely confused. Firstly, it co
