The Strongest Player is a Demon Lord Arrival of the Knights
[Genesis City – Present Day]Days inside the dungeon instance move at a slightly slower speed compared to the outside world. Because of this, the three days that Merlin already spent inside the place has already consumed four in the real world. Meaning, there are things that are moving outside as well. Specifically, the ones connected to his former allies and their plot against him.“Good. You finally came.” Elliot stood in front of the city gates.He’s been waiting there for a good thirty minutes. One of the guards, which he already bribed and bought to be his personal informant, came to him earlier. Telling him that three individuals donning armor from his kingdom are approaching the city.That’s why he made haste to go there immediately. Brows furrowed and all because of how late the knights are. They were supposed to arrive yesterday and so he waited for them that very day. One which was consumed without anything good to show for.From morning up until the afternoon and reaching n
The Strongest Player is a Demon Lord Against the Alpha
[Den of Wolves – Present Day]“So, you’re the leader of this pack huh.” Merlin looked at the alpha wolf from head to toe. Black fur covers the entirety of its body, a coat that’s well maintained. Its eyes are razor sharp violet; gazing down on him as if he’s not even worth half of its time. These eyes reflect the mana that is oozing out of the wolf’s body – not out of boasting but because it cannot be contained.Merlin knows this. He has encountered monsters of a similar nature. Those that have too much mana that their bodies cannot contain the entirety of it. Leaving some of it leaking and creating a unique aura for the monsters. And what this means for the current fight is that, the half-demon is in for a lot of trouble.“AWOOOOOO!”Just the howl from the monster is enough to make Merlin instinctively step back. This doesn’t mean that he’s a coward. It just means that he knows how much of a bad news this enemy is. This is the very reason why he needed the dark elf to come along wit
The Strongest Player is a Demon Lord Against the Alpha II
The attack that the alpha fired is caused by the charging up that it did. This isn’t just for show. It’s to prepare for the beam that it’s going to fire. But before the monster released it, the alpha first needed to make sure that its enemy’s dodging ability is out of the way. That’s why it released the surge of purple mana through the howl.Other than forcing its enemy to dodge with the use of a skill, the alpha is actually able to locate where its enemy is as well. Caused by the same howl that provides it with a sort of echolocation tool. One which immediately found Merlin which gave the monster the perfect opportunity to fire its beam.The vicious attack covered the entirety of the area where Merlin reappeared. There’s no escaping this. The path that leads to Merlin has been completely covered by the attack. And within this field of smoke, projectiles came flying out.This came in rapid succession. Twenty orbs that carry the color of darkness flew towards the monster. Preventing it
The Strongest Player is a Demon Lord The Knights and Azazel
Unbelievable.That’s the only word that Sylvie can think of that can perfectly describe the situation. Not only did her ally kill the alpha wolf, he also managed to do it while predicting some of the things that will happen. Yes. The last attack that the dark elf used was actually ordered upon her by Merlin.“At the last stretch of the fight, the Alpha will probably be covered in a field of smoke that I created. There’s a chance that it’ll come out to attack me. Wait for it and counter it with your long-ranged slash.” This is what Merlin said…and it came true.The monster did perform this kind of attack. And after it failed, she watched the demon finish the job by closing the gap between him and the monster. All while condensing a heavy amount of mana on the tip of the staff. All of the demon’s mana to be exact. And without wasting a single second, Merlin blasted the monster with this.The demon would’ve looked perfect in that moment too, if not for the effects of Demon’s Rage ending.
The Strongest Player is a Demon Lord The Knights and Azazel II
I’m back. I still have no idea where this place is but I’m back. The same white walls. The same hollow feeling…and the same child looking down on me. Taking on a dark silhouette that completely contrasts the place. “You came back early.” This child is talking about stuff I can’t understand again. What does it mean by early? How am I early?“You’re having trouble remembering everything again. Why am I not surprised? That’s so typical for you humans.” The child sighed. As soon as he said this, memories came back to me. A violent rush of it to be exact. Making me remember who I am…and what I became.“YOU!”I was able to finally speak. My voice echoed across the white room. But that’s all that I could do. This child somehow has me in a state where I can’t move. The only thing within my control are my thoughts and my lips. “No need to raise your voice like that. You should be happy you know. I gave you a new life.” The child mused. “It’s not what you wanted but, that should be more th
The Strongest Player is a Demon Lord The Knights and Merlin
Merlin and Sylvie arrived at the dungeon a few moments after the three knights have entered the throne room. Everything is already in the state of disarray that the knights have left it in. With flames burning whatever they can find – leaving the earth scorched.There are remnants of a fight that happened recently as well. Evident with the claw marks left on the walls and the pickaxes that are left on areas which Merlin can only assume to be the last resting place of his kobold workers before they died.This surfaced emotions within Merlin. Stuff that he never thought he could ever feel. This whole dungeon is his property. Nobody else has a claim on it other than him. And so, he treats it with the utmost care. The same can be said for his workers. But now all of that is nearly destroyed.Merlin didn’t even hesitate on what he’d do next. He moved as fast as he could, reaching the throne room in a matter of seconds. And without missing a heartbeat; protected the only unit that is still
The Strongest Player is a Demon Lord Rebirth
The fight ended quickly. From Sylvie’s perspective, there wasn’t much of a fight. It was just Merlin bombarding his spell towards the knights. Not the same type of person that she has traveled with inside the dungeon instance. A contrast brought about by the mental state of the demon.“Have you cooled down yet?” She asked as Merlin returned to his normal form. Downing a mana potion to reduce the hp loss.“It just pisses me off.” Merlin replied.“I can’t blame you, I’d be boiling with rage if someone intrudes inside my dungeon as well.”“No. Not that.” Merlin said.He’s angry about something else entirely. Merlin is angry about his own incompetence. He thinks that, if he only planned better and proceeded with a better grasp of the whole situation, this wouldn’t happen. He’s incompetent. Weak. And because of his lack, most of his troops are dead.The only one left is Teach and even this kobold is at death’s doors. Breathing what seems to be its last breaths as the state of the creature
The Strongest Player is a Demon Lord Rebirth II
[Azazel Dungeon – Three Days Later]The resurrection of Teach didn’t come without its obstacles. There are a lot but, most of them have already been overcome. There is, however, one last problem that has yet to be solved. That is, Teach hasn’t waken up yet.Ever since the day that he took on his new form, he has remained asleep. In a death like sleep to be exact. That is the state that he is left in. Though Merlin is sure that this servant of his is still alive. Evident by the breathing of Teach’s new body as well as the beating of his heart. All that’s left is for the kobold to wake up. And after three days…this finally happened.Everything started slowly for the kobold. His eyes all the same. These opened even slower than you’d expect them to. As if he’s a newborn. And he might actually be one. After all, this body and form of his is new. The body of a human that has mixed with a kobold and is blessed with the mana of a demon lord.Though there isn’t any visible sign of his demonic

Finale
Three months has passed since Merlin waged war against the entirety of the human continent. Within this time, a lot of things have already happened. Though the first month is spent in relative silence, without much fighting and bloodbath, the same cannot be said for the months that followed after this.Though the first month could be called as calm and tame, what happened shortly after this is far from this description. There is no calm anymore. It is replaced, entirely, by a storm. One brought about by the demon lord Merlin Warlock and all of the vengeful spirit he has against the human race that has done noting but earn his utmost spite and resentment.Under the leadership of the demon lord, the forces of evil has advanced rapidly in the middle of the second month. What would’ve seemed as nothing more than a small wound proved to be a festering plague soon enough.This is all due to the tactical planning and advances made by Merlin. He didn’t target locations to occupy out of a whim

A Different Task
Every general that Merlin commands participated in a form of combat. This means that even Teach himself went to fight a couple of monsters along the way. The only difference between him and the others is that, Teach didn’t encounter any of the generals from the five continents. Call it luck if you will but he doesn’t actually take pride in this. Far from it, Teach is a bit disappointed that he doesn’t get to have the same kind of action that the others are getting.Gerant went and fought against a great general of the north who makes use of a cursed sword. The battle is a crucial part of the plan for the demon lord’s army to succeed because, with the victory of the blood ogre also comes the safety of the entirety of the demon lord’s territory from a sneak attack from the back.Then there’s the battle that Sylvie the dark elf experienced. One where she came face to face against another great general. The only tactical mind within the kingdom of Helios. If left unchecked, this person wo

A Swift Victory
Just like Sylvie and Gerant, Samira also encountered a general in the battlefield. A very powerful one at that because, this human is also the right-hand man of King Wolfhound. The greatest soldier that’s only second to the king himself. None other than Augustus.The general has already taken down a city and two villages that the monsters of the demon lord has occupied. As such, he’s making the most progress out of anyone. Clearing out the problems in such a rate that, if left alone, he would entirely wipe out all of the problems that the kingdom has.That’s why he has to be dealt with and, that’s why Samira came to pay him a visit. Not during the day when she’s weak of course but, rather, during the hours of the night. Making full use of the powers granted to her by moonlight. A privilege only she enjoys.With this, her powers are greatly boosted. Maybe too much to be exact because, right now, even the great general isn’t posing as a threat to her at all. “You’re a lot weaker than I

A Bad Matchup II
Thundering crashes continued within Raider city. Earthquakes of some sort that made some of the soldiers and even some of the monsters stop from fighting. Nobody could disregard it or pretend that it does not exist because of how easy it is to lose balance due to the force of every tremor that’s made and, the exceeding loudness that are emitted by these same forceful and powerful vibrations.Unlike the monsters and the humans however, the skeletons continued to move. The third faction that entered into the fray through seeming portals that made them come out in large quantities. Mixed with powerful monsters that tear upon the soldiers of Helios.The relentless attack of the skeletons, although not lethal at all, is enough to take the attention of the humans. Though this doesn’t make their fighting any less difficult. With the addition of these creatures, the monsters that invaded the city have finally begun to be able to fight back. A thing that’s not even supposed to happen and, woul

A Bad Matchup
The dark elf stood on top of the roof of a building standing just in front of General Justus. Completely alone and unguarded. This might seem like a poor choice on the part of the dark elf but, Justus can feel that the creature is strong enough to leave itself this way.Though this did not stop him from giving an order to nearby archers he placed around the vicinity as well. Doing so with a simple command spell that he placed on himself and the said units. Granting them a target mark which tells them who it is that they need to shoot and, for them to get a clear shot, he needs to continue getting the attention of this new opponent.The archers are all, of course, trained by him in secret. This is something he requested from King Wolfhound himself. Meaning, these are all exceptional soldiers. That’s why the general knows that they’d be able to handle their target without much trouble at all.“My lord told me that there’d be monsters here but, I didn’t expect that there’s be humans as w

The Day of Attack
The air around raider city is filled with the vile stench of rotting flesh. There is a silence brought about, not by peace and rest, but by the fact that all humans within this city have been killed. Murdered and eaten by the monsters that now occupy it as well. Making it their abode as the war between the newest demon lord is waged against the five kingdoms.In the dead silence of early morn, not even birds have begun to chirp yet. Darkness fills the entirety of the world like a mantle, hiding everything from plain sight. Creating a camouflage for everyone who wants to make it their own – the very same thing that Justus’ soldiers did.They made use of the darkness to continue their advance towards the city. Just as he ordered, he left the nearby village before the first streaks of dawn could be seen. Each and every soldier is already prepared when he called for them; their punctuality being one of the few things that he likes when it comes to his own kingdom.“I don’t want any excess

General Justus
Khanza is not the only reliable general that’s been deployed for the war. As a matter of fact, every reliable general of every kingdom has been brought out for this war and, one of them is the great tactician – Justus.It is said that, when it comes to creating effective strategies in the battlefield, there is nobody that could match his level. A spectacled adolescent that is looked upon by many as a figure that’s been born in the wrong place. After all, he is a member of the kingdom of Helios.Any praise that may go into his great tactics is non-existent within this kingdom. Other than the craft of forging and, the physical prowess of a person, nothing else matters. Yet that is also the reason why this same general is all the more interesting.He isn’t just all wits. No. General Justus is a strong gladiator as well. Knowing that nobody would ever recognize him if he doesn’t show his might in the battlefield, he continued honing his body. Making it a lethal weapon that can play out al

Blood and Poison
Gerant’s attack sent his opponent flying in the air. With this comes a powerful explosion that ate away at the flesh of Khanza. No amount of defensive capability helped the demonified general as, Gerant watched his opponent get eaten away by newly furnished spell.This is an attack that Gerant has only perfected recently and, is able to do so because of the help of his lord and savior, Merin Warlock. A demon lord that showed him a path that he himself could not have seen all on his own.In the original game, Gerant’s power is so frightening that it’s said that he can destroy the barrier of Genesis City itself. And the spell he can unleash which gave him such a reputation is the same one that he’s using right now.[Skill Name: Malevolence][Skill Type: Channeling Burst][Grade: S][Mana Cost: 100,000][Information: The initial part of the spell creates a domain around the entirety of the battlefield. Casting this takes away 20% of the stats of the caster, as well as the same amount of

Conclusion
Khanza’s form changed completely. His grayish hair has turned into pitch black. His eyes are filled with nothing but the void. The rest of his body is consumed in flesh, seemingly made from the cursed sword which has its core in the middle of the general’s chest. There is also a tail at his back – a thick one that might be usable for both offense and defense.It’s a demon. There’s not a shadow of a doubt that it’s a demon that Gerant is facing right now. One which has bloodlust outpouring from it as well. Directed towards nobody else but the blood ogre as a deafening screech escaped from the jaws of the beast he has to face.“To think that a general of the north can use Demonification. That’s definitely something I didn’t expect to encounter in this lifetime.” Gerant sarcastically said.“You will pay for your sins with your life!”The monster howled at him with such strength that the blood ogre’s ears almost bled. The sound even touching the parts of his exposed skin violently, as if
