Sylvie's Training

“Alright, let’s see what we got here.” Sylvie looked down at the enemies she needs to fight – wolves. There are a lot of them, a whole pack to be exact. Though she doesn’t need to actually kill each and every one. The only target she needs to take care of is the alpha of the pack, no more no less.

But that’s not what she’s intending to do.

“Since you’re all going to leave the forest anyway, I might as well give you an easier exit.” Sylvie said as she planned how to attack the monsters. Drawing out her twin blades and poised to strike.

She needs to kill as many monsters as she can because, she wants to catch up to Samira the manticore. She knows that in a fight, she can’t win against this beast. Not with her current level. Even with all the tricks at her sleeve and even with all the planning she could do, she knows that it still won’t be enough against the absolute and indomitable strength of Samira. Though she’d never tell this to the manticore straight at her face.

    [Azazel Dungeon – Three days after Merlin’s hibernation began]Teach gathered all of the kobold workers into the throne room. He’s not sitting on the throne of course because it isn’t his place to do so. Instead, he’s sitting on the steps that lead to it. With a system window opened in front of him, scrolled through with the pointing finger of his left hand. The other hand is used to brush the hair on top of his forehead. His brows are furrowed and his lips are completely flat; devoid of any emotion. The kobolds have been there for more than two minutes but Teach hasn’t even said a word to them yet. Two of these that are on the front began acting up because of it. The one on the left rubbed his elbow to the one on the right. Giving an obvious signal which the other kobold understood. Making a sound close to coughing which Teach heard. The kobolds know he head it because he extended his browsing hand towards them, raising his pointing finger and then proceeding to go back to what he

    There are a couple of buildings that have been raised within Azazel dungeon. With Merlin’s priority of raising these instead of getting some soldiers to defend his dungeon, he’s able to speed up the process since he also doubled the number of kobolds that he already owns. Having around forty of these guys around.That being said, the kobolds are distributed in two tasks. Collection and building. That is all they need to do and, in the span that they’ve been doing this, they’re able to create a total of ten. All of which are now being observed closely by Teach who’s gone through another day of quality check.“Alright let’s start with the barracks.” The hybrid said as he went in front of this building.The barracks is one of the latter added buildings. Though it may sound like a stupid choice since this can supply soldiers, Merlin had no need for such early on. He has enough firepower with just himself, Sylvie, and Teach. Not to mention he also had the banshees up his arsenal. Powerful

    Dungeon monsters. There are two types of dungeon monsters that can exist. The first are those that are summoned by the lord of the dungeon. This is the more common version. Since there is a master over the dungeon, it is only right that this creature can also create others that are fitting for its rulership.Then there’s the second type. Invaders.Every dungeon has parts of it that are unexplored. Even high-level dungeons have spots like these. Usually, adventurers would steer away from the said areas because of the surprises that might come along the way. There can be monsters, traps, or worse, a dungeon instance – another dungeon that has the potential of being more difficult than the one which the group intended to clear. Invaders can come from any of the three that’s been mentioned. They can be monsters that’s just lurking on the uncharted areas of the dungeon. They aren’t dangerous to the dungeon itself as long as they aren’t bothered of course. But if their nest is reached by t

    Dirth the shaman is nothing more than a goblin. He thinks of himself as a servant to the manticore Samira and, now, even to the demon lord Merlin. But other than this, he thinks there isn’t anything special about him.This stems from the fact that he has always compared himself to his master, Samira. With her as the standard, he won’t ever come close to the level he wants to achieve. That’s why he keeps on striving to get stronger. Allowing him to transcend the very limits of his race. Reaching [Level 100] right after the destruction of Genesis City. He could very well be the ruler of all goblins. The one who stands above all of them. But he never thought of this role, nor would it even cross his mind. For him, it is already enough that he’s being of service to those that has enough power to rule the continent. That is his level of vision.This same shaman is currently with his first master – Samira the manticore. The

    The four sovereign monsters. These creatures had command over hundreds and thousands of monsters during the Requiem event where they attempted to take down the city of Genesis. Among there is one who is particularly dangerous. All because of the number of monsters at his disposal. This is none other than [Gerant].An ogre shaman boasting of his high level of [300], there is no way that he can be taken as a joke. Among the four sovereigns, he has the highest firepower. He’s also the one commanding the most units. A six-foot-five blood red ogre who uses blood arts as one of the many means of his spellcasting.That’s right. This bastard makes use of blood in order to conjure despicable spells. Even Merlin himself wasn’t able to figure out how this is done by the monster because, he’s not the one who killed it. And the one who did kept it hidden. Literally. Nobody ever found out who did it. The blood arts was lost to time but, this time around, there is a chance to harvest it. This creat

  • The Strongest Player is a Demon Lord   Gerant's Advance Troop

    [Earlier On - Before Samira’s Attack]Gerant sent an advance unit to scout the area ahead of time. The distance between the shaman leader and this scouting group is long enough that Gerant would need two hours of travel time to reach their current location. A good enough gap that ensures that, should the scouts get killed, then at least the rest of them would still be relatively safe.As for how the scouts are reporting to him well, the only thing they need to do is shoot an arrow to the sky. One that’s filled with flammable powder that easily spreads into smoke. This comes in varying colors and, depending on the color of smoke coming out, Gerant will know what his next move would be.This ensures that they won’t encounter any untoward circumstance where they have to fight in a disadvantageous situation. After all, the blood ogre shaman is a tactical monster. Even with all of the power he has at his disposal, he never disregards the need for a plan before entering into combat. Nor doe

    [Earlier On - Before Samira’s Attack]Samira knew that things aren’t finished yet. Though she’s a brute who immerses herself in the thrill of the hunt and the battles that follow, she is, in no way, an idiot. Her vast influence over the continent allowed her to collect a couple of enemies along the way. She’s also able to distinguish the followers of these enemies and, the ones she just fought, looks like they’re owned by Gerant.“Dirth.”“Yes my queen.”After dealing with all of them, that’s when Dirth came down to the scene. The goblin shaman didn’t waste any time and went there quickly.“This looks like the coward’s work.” The manticore went to a corpse and examined it closely.“The markings on their face is enough proof my queen.” Dirth said, noticing the markings on the head of the abomination. How the whole of it is painted with red and in the form of a skull. The very symbol of the followers of Gerant the Blood Ogre Shaman.“He’s nearby?” She asked.“Wait. Let me confirm it fir

    There’s no other powerup that Gerant can make. This is t. this is his full capacity. Unless more of his followers die, he can’t get any stronger. But he’s not going to do this. He’s not going to sacrifice some of his followers just for the sake of getting stronger. Not because he cares for them but because he thinks there’s no reason to do this.Just with his form right now, he knows that he can already intimidate Samira. In fact, he thinks that she’s already shaking from fear. His blood powers increase in strength when he extracts blood after all. Increasing his stats to such an extent that he transcends normal reasoning. That’s why Samira’s words didn’t make sense.“Is that all?” The manticore asked.“W-What?”“I’m asking if that’s all or, is there something else up your sleeve?” Samira added in a dry tone. As if Gerant hasn’t done anything impressive.“You can’t fool me manticore. You can keep that brave front of yours all you want but we both know that you can’t win against me!” G

    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

    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.

    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
