2024-10-29 19:42:56Lazaro deviated from the plan.
His master never mentioned anything about going to Helios kingdom and imploring the aid of Elliot the Prince. There was never any order for him to talk about Merlin Warlock. In fact, he’s even told to keep his lips shut about his existence and that nobody else should be made aware that the Emperor of Requiem is still alive.But Lazaro didn’t listen. Call it mischievousness or call it his hardheadedness, the fact remains that he doesn’t care. As long as he doesn’t get caught by his master or that blasted right hand man of this frighteningly overpowered person, then there’s nothing for him to be worried about. And he made sure of this as well. That he won’t be caught by them.Lazaro took all the necessary measures in order to ensure that he can trick these two. He is an illusionist after all and, if he can’t do this much, then he isn’t much of an illusionist as w

Kraken.The name of the pirate groups isn’t something their leader arrived at based on a whim. No. This is something that they got based on the monster they own. The great Sea Beast, the Kraken. A monster with one tentacle being long enough to reach the end of the city if it whips from the shore. With the mass being thicker than a ship and, can destroy three of these same vehicles with a simple whip of its tentacle.That is how powerful it is. As such, it should be impossible for mere humans to have control of it. That is, unless there is an item they’re using in order to do so.[Item Name: Kraken’s Heart][Item Grade: SSS]{Information: Extracted from the heart of the great beast that’s still alive, as long as it’s in one piece, the kraken might survive any kind of damage. Anyone who has hold of it gains the undying loyalty of the monster.]Nobody knows how the pirate king got his hands on this. He hasn’t told a single soul about it as well and, even Merlin himself isn’t able to find

[Above Ground – Kraken City]King Raksha or, rather, the pirate king, made his way to his office. A place that nobody can easily enter. After all, leaving himself alone with another person is a recipe for disaster. There are too many individuals that want to take him down for him to rest easy talking privately inside a room. That rule isn’t applied to the current moment though. There is a person inside his office that day. Waiting for him as he finishes the conversation in the prison and, now, it’s time for them to meet.“Did you wait long?” King Raksha said as soon as he entered the room.“No. Just a couple of minutes.” His guest said as this person sipped a cup of coffee. “I hope you don’t mind though. I already made myself at home and poured one cup.”Meanwhile, the pirate king only sighed. It’s not like there’s anything problematic with what this person did. His guest has already been marked with a crest that prevents him from touching anything off limits within that room. That’s

The following day, everything continued the way that Philein intended it to. Lazaro got a contract with King Raksha which prevents him from disclosing anything he might have seen or heard to the outside world. He’s also forbidden from coming back to the city. Lastly, even though there’s a very small chance of it happening, Lazaro is forbidden from taking part in any plans that would result in the death of Raksha.The binding contract was finished quickly without any hitch. As a result, they’re able to proceed to the next part – kicking Lazaro out of the city. If there is anything about this which Lazaro can be applauded for, it’s the fact that he remained in his disguise the entire time.Up to the very last second, right before he is teleported out of the city, he continued using the face and body of Kelzio. Even though the pirate king has told him time and time again that it’s not believable, he still proceeded with it like a stubborn kid. And so, this is also his appearance once he

Kelzio died.No.Kelzio is assumed to be dead.There was never any corpse found but, the pirate prince is assumed to be dead. That’s the only logical thing that can happen as far as Lazaro is concerned.When Merlin Warlock went berserk inside the city together with his three trusted monster generals, a great catastrophe fell upon it. The barrier of this great city that never yielded, shattered from the highest point. From this came an earthquake unlike anything that the city experienced before. With houses falling down left and right and stronger buildings receiving the same fate.Then came the hail of darkness. The explosions caused by the demon lord Merlin who did not spare a single soul in this act of mass murder. He killed anyone and everyone and, as this happened, his bombardment reached the quarters of Kelzio.Lazaro himself confirmed Kelzio’s death because of this. There are remains of a human that are burnt and smashed within the rubble of Kelzio’s abode. As far as the illusio
The Strongest Player is a Demon Lord Kelzio the Gunman
I am Kelzio.For the longest time, I’ve been one of the few that has gone unnoticed within Avalon. Though Merlin plays a large part in this, part of it is also caused by the fact that my allies naturally outshine me. They paid more than what my parents could afford in the game and, as such, I have been granted one of the lesser job classes. The highest rank nonetheless but, still, a lesser job class.I was a gunman in the game. You’d think that this is actually a good job class because of the weapon that’s superior to others in the real world. But in the game, there are other variables considered within this job class. Accuracy, reload speed, piercing, number of bullets and many more.Due to the numerous constraints of my job class, I wasn’t able to get a lot stronger. I didn’t need to since we have Merlin doing everything for us. All the fighting is dealt with by that monstrous excuse for a human. But that didn’t stop me from trying to get stronger. An attempt that failed until my l

“Are you done?” Philein asked, walking towards Kel and Laz after an hour.“Yes. Sorry for the wait.” Kel said as he bowed his head.After telling the part about his alliance with Philein, Kelzio gave a quick rundown on how he escaped the capital. How he is given a body double by Philein which can be used to substitute him to a lifeless form of his body while the real one gets teleported back to base. Using this, Kelzio escaped the city while leaving behind enough evidence for everyone to agree that he’s dead.Of course the story aligns with Lazaro who is granted the same item. The [Demon Core] resides within his body as much as it does within Kelzio. That’s why both of them are forced into servitude under a master whom neither of them has seen face to face yet.“Good. Then we can move to the strategy.” Philein said, snapping his fingers and creating a large map in the middle of the three.Since they are in a remote and abandoned village, they don’t have any need to be wary of being se
The Strongest Player is a Demon Lord The Start of Trouble II
Everything looks like a scene from a nightmare. Monsters continued pouring through the crack of dark mana in the middle of the city. Gargoyles. Goblins. Imps. Kobolds. Ogres. Orcs. Even lesser dragons and hounds. Creating a strong enough tremor on the ground just from their movements that went with haste as they aimed at killing the nearest humans they can find.“HELP ME!”“GET BACKUP!”“MY SON!”“NOOOO!”Screams of humans quickly filled the air and with it is the blood and flesh that’s spilled. Eaten by the monsters that continued ravaging through the city of Raksha. The males being more fortunate as they are given swift deaths while the females are sometimes raped by the goblins. Ganged up on and forced into an act of vile and gut-wrenching intercourse.“Dammit!” Raksha ran down his balcony as quickly as he could.There are various preventive measures set up within the city of course. It’s not like Kraken is defenseless. The only problem is that most of these defenses are made to p

“You must have quite the good eyesight if you saw me through the smoke.” Philein said as he got shot at right away.Raksha released three bullets in rapid succession. With magic circles appearing on Philein’s forehead, heart, and throat. All of which failed to get hit as a barrier stopped the Pirate King’s attack. In return, five of the goblins rushed to attack the king who raised a wall made of water that prevented them from getting closer.Raksha doesn’t plan on talking with Philein. If he can end the fight right away, that would be good for him. He doesn’t care about dialogues and fair play. He’s a pirate of the worst kind – all he cares about are the results. That’s the only thing that matters.“Really? Right off the bat?” Philein asked in a tone of disbelief. Referring to the bullets that missed.Again, the pirate king didn’t make a response. Instead he casted a fire spell that hit the wall of water. Creating hot steam that blew towards Philein and the monsters in the front. Hot

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
