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

    [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

    One of the things that happened while Teach is asleep is the construction of the [Coliseum]. A place with multiple benefits for Merlin and for the dungeon in general. Other than the fact that it can be used as a training ground, the place can also serve as a means of entertainment. The monsters can go there and watch fights whenever a tournament is held. A way for Merlin to also assess how strong his units are.That’s why he sped up the construction of this place. Finishing it within the couple of days that Teach has been asleep. And this can only be done with the resummoning of a workforce of course. That’s why there is now a new set of kobolds working for the dungeon as well as the other units that can be useful. Though none of these are present in the coliseum at that specific moment. The only ones in the area are Sylvie, Teach, and the dungeon master, Merlin.The place is located at the right side of the dungeon near the throne room. The place is large enough to house a thousand v

    [Genesis City – Present Day]Morgause called everyone to their next meeting. She wanted Elliot to be the one to initiate this actually. But since this person doesn’t seem to have any intention of holding a meeting himself, she decided for him. Another regular morning before they enter into the academy, the group met within the same location they did before. A closed space where they are free to express themselves. Present here are Elliot, Claire, Morgause, Arthur, and the ever so taunting Lazaro. The last one being a presence that they would’ve been all happy to be without. In fact, Morgause herself doesn’t remember ever telling this person about the meeting. And yet there he is. As if he knew all along that something like this would be held.There’s no point in thinking about it too much though. The only thing they have to think about is the current state of things. The progress of what has to be finished and whether or not this progress has actually even happened. “Everyone knows

    The following day, Morgause arranged a meeting with the lord of the city – Asther Longsword. The name itself is descriptive of the weapon wielded by this nobility. A longsword – the same weapon wielded by his entire lineage.The king is a tall man. Standing at five-foot-eleven with properly trimmed black hair and a beard that covers the sides of his well-defined jawline. His eyes are black and sharp in their stare and, his body is well built. Something which is attributed to the fact that he still goes out from time to time and does expeditions himself.There is no expedition for him today though. Morgause made sure that this meeting will push through because, it’s through this that she’d be able to show what is happening within the dungeon. The strange events that have caused Gerald and a lot more to go missing.As for the meeting, it is held in an open space. Outside the mansion of Asther to be exact. Within a small garden that is perfect for the elegance of Morgause. With beautiful

    Teach entered the throne room without slowing down. As soon as he did though, he saw that his lord is in the middle of a transaction with a [Black Market Merchant]. A goblin to be exact wearing a long robe which hides its body, save for the face that has a large pair of round glasses over the eyes. A weird sight to behold since goblins don’t normally place anything on their face, much less do they cover their bodies the same way as this merchant does.[Information: A black market merchant appears to the throne room of the dungeon’s lord when it reaches level 4. Various goods are then offered to the dungeon’s lord. But aside from this, trades can also be done as well as the selling of materials to the black market merchant.]This creature isn’t the first to appear in the dungeon. One has appeared a day before as well. A merchant who seems to have been satisfied with the transaction that Merlin made with it. This is easy to tell because of the wide grin on the last merchant’s lips. And,

    [Genesis City]Right after seeing what occurs within the dungeon of Azazel, Asther’s secretary - Junrio, arranged a gathering for every adventurer. The general public doesn’t need to be roused of this news. There’s no need to because this will only cause alarm and distress. And these are things that Junrio wants to avoid. After all, there shouldn’t be any cause for this especially since Asther himself will finish the dungeon.There is no doubt in his mind that the city’s lord is capable of doing so. The dungeon is weak, its rank could only make Asther break a sweat at best. That’s why he also doesn’t understand why there’s a need for the city’s lord to join this. But that’s not true. He knows exactly why Asther is joining it – interest.Asther is interested in this dungeon because of the feed that he saw as soon as the Faye created one. That of the screaming adventurers and the brutal killing of the orcs. But most importantly, the taunting that’s made by these same monsters. Recognizi

    [Outside Azazel Dungeon – Woodland Forest]A group of around twenty adventurers got an early lead towards the dungeon. Right as soon as the reward money was mentioned, these individuals mobilized themselves. Wanting to get to the dungeon first and, of course, finish it first as well.With the sum that is mentioned, anyone will easily be led to do the same thing as them. In fact, they even spent on teleportation scrolls just so they could reach the middle of the forest right away. Getting them that much closer to the dungeon’s entrance.Now all that’s left is to actually enter it.“Come on guys hurry up!” The leader said to his allies.“Why are you in such a hurry? We’re already ways ahead of the rest.” Another one commented, being just as excited as the leader.“I heard the lord is gonna join as well. Once he enters it’ll take him a couple of hours to catch up to us. We can’t let that happen.” The leader said. “We need that gold.”“Then keep on running!” A third one jokingly said.Mor

    [Azazel Dungeon – Present Day]It has been three days since I entered this dungeon. There have been…various things that have happened. Stuff that are heavy for the weak of spirit. I thought I’ve seen it all in my days as an adventurer. Death and, all the gut-wrenching things that comes with it in the battlefield. But this, this is far more.There are worms that carry distorted faces of humans. With eyes melting from the sockets and mouths that drool with excretes. Walls that can see…their eyes coming with every step we take. We tried killing these and destroying the walls. But none of that worked. The eyes would hide behind the walls every time and, we’d be left wasting our energy.There is the distant sound of laughter. That of children that echo throughout these dark and morbid corridors. And the stench…the stench is the worst of it all. Making most of us vomit just from catching a whiff of it for the first time…and no matter what kind of spell we used, this never went away.None of

    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
