The Strongest Player is a Demon Lord Victor
Merlin got information about the events transpiring within the kingdom of Ptolemy easily. He didn’t even have to place too much of an effort into this. He and Sylvie went into a nearby village, the nearest they can find that hasn’t been evacuated yet.The declaration of war as well as the state of the former Genesis city made it so that everyone living in villages near it evacuated to the cities. As such, it is a far way from this point that the next village is located. This also means another thing. That, the things transpiring within the kingdoms reach the ears of these villagers easier. All thanks to two things. The soldiers sent to guard these places and, the merchants that come back from the kingdoms as well.Both of these are tattletales that cannot hold their stories. The juicier the story, the easier it is for them to slip their tongue. Though Merlin and Sylvie didn’t rely on this at all. They went there in the guise of being merchants. Bringing fruits that are harvested from
The Strongest Player is a Demon Lord Between Monarchs
Merlin is sharp.As the Emperor of Requiem, he’s continued wearing this title because of the brains that go with his overwhelming powers. The combination of the two is the reason why he’s such a frightening figure because, he doesn’t only fight in actual battles. No. Merlin Warlock engages in the art of warfare even before entering into the battlefield. Using tricks and tactics that place his own victory a step closer. As many steps as possible before the real confrontations.That is what he did when he interfered in the affairs of the kingdom of Regulus. He didn’t go to the arena expecting to kill the five monarchs. He knows full well that, he’s not on a level where he can kill them that easily yet.These are the most powerful humans in the continent after all. With their levels maxed and, with achievements under their belt that nobody else in Adamus can rival. That’s why he didn’t go there for the kill. He only went there to show them that he is a threat. A real threat and a lethal
The Strongest Player is a Demon Lord The Plotting Demon
“My lord, how did things go?” Dirth asked. He’s the only one who met up with the demon lord. Everyone else is away and busy with something else. A task left to them by Merlin of course. That’s why he’s welcomed by the goblin shaman. With this creature are three kobolds who have with them a couple of items that would’ve been useful if Merlin returned to the dungeon sustaining heavy damage.Thankfully, none of these are required because Merlin returned in top shape. There’s no damage done to him, though the same cannot be said for his enemies. The destruction he caused will surely reap one of the effects that he intends to create and, if he’s lucky, he’ll surely be able to create all of them.“Perfectly.” Merlin said. A single word that summarized the event. “Everything went just as I planned.”“Does that mean we don’t have to worry about the humans for a while?” Dirth asked. “Yes.” Merlin said in reply.Among the monsters on his side, Dirth is the most perceptive – even toping Gerant
The Strongest Player is a Demon Lord The Hollow Arena
Hollow Arena.This is the name of another facility found within Merlin’s dungeon. Unlike the other places that are built by his kobolds, this structure is created solely by the fact that the dungeon has gone over [Level 10] and that, it’s master has ascended into a proper demon lord. Not a lesser one but, rather, a monster that’s close to the prime of Azazel. This is still far from Merlin’s own prime of course. Though that’s not a problem for the thing being spoken of.[Structure Name: Hollow Arena.][Level: MAXED][Information: A place that contains residues of dark mana that’s spread around it. The arena builds itself on an empty space within the dungeon that has enough space for its creation.][Information: Once inside, the place becomes a territory of its own. Cut from the outside world and, thus, cannot influence the outside world as well. Should there be anything destructive released within the hollow space, it would simply devour all of this, just like any other spell or attack
The Strongest Player is a Demon Lord Octavia
Everyone sat on a piece of ruin within the arena. It’s clear as day that all of them are annoyed about what just happened. Anyone would be if they lose to the same person over and over without any sign of getting close to victory at all. That’s the effect that Octavia has on them and, that’s why they all share the same brooding look. As if thinking how they’d win the next time around.Meanwhile, Octavia sat at the far end where everyone else are. She gazed at the fake sky created by Merlin’s skill. A cloudy one that didn’t allow a single ray of sunshine to penetrate through.“I’d say that all of you did well in the training but, that would be lying on my part.” Merlin began as he got close to his allies.“Right off the bat huh.” Sylvie said as she laid back on a piece of concrete. “Shouldn’t you have buttered us up with affirmations before moving on to something like that?”“That won’t do any of us any good.” Amused, Merlin said. “Anyway, you guys don’t have to worry about the next pa
The Strongest Player is a Demon Lord Light Spar
A loud silence separated Octavia and Merlin. There are no words left to be exchanged between the two. The only thing that’s left is the fight that cannot be avoided. A way for Merlin to gauge the actual strength of the kraken who, in that same second of decision making, finally made her move.The air seemingly ripped from the attack as Octavia blasted towards the demon lord. With this is the activation of all the tentacles nearby, slamming towards the same direction that the demon is on. Forcing Merlin to use flicker right off the bat to place himself out of the range of all the attacks. A gigantic wave is created on the point of impact of Octavia’s blow. Followed by the slamming tentacles that recreated the same effect. Each of which increasing the size of the wave that spread across all direction. The speed f the attack forced Merlin’s hand once again as he has to activate the first stage of his transformation – casting:
The Strongest Player is a Demon Lord Learning the Ropes
“That was really impressive.”Merlin at the corner of the [Hollow Arena], his back resting on a ruined wall from a makeshift city that’s been destroyed. Right in front of him is the Kraken who, began to wake up slowly – her eyes twitching and opening at the same rate. After a couple more seconds, she’s finally able to sit back up. Her body seemingly weighing a lot heavier than it should be with how sluggish this action is. Though Merlin understands that this is caused by the overexertion of the Kraken. The fact that she unleashed all of those attacks on him in a short interval means that she really has every intention to take him down.“You were really trying to kill me back there weren’t you?” Merlin asked though he already knows the answer to this question.“I have always been of service master. I have been under a lot of humans during the ages but, this is the first time that I serve under a demon.” Octavia stared into Merlin’s eyes. “I just wanted to see how different you are for
The Strongest Player is a Demon Lord The Two Saints
There is someone stronger than Merlin.There are ten of them to be exact. The saints of Adamus are all much stronger than he to the point that, no matter what tactic he use, he won’t be able to win against them. Other than their innate talent for combat and their high battle IQ, what makes these saints formidable is the fact that, each of them has been blessed by the heavens. Every single saint has a unique and overpowered blessing granted to them. Making them the epitome of strength that even the other continents fear.Proving this is the fact that, the reason why the other continents never bother waging wars against Adamus is because of the existence of the saints. That is how strong they are. The rulers of the other continents know that, should they lift a finger against this continent, then they will surely lose. All because of the combined strength of these saints.Though fear has driven them to this point, it is also fear that would make them gather up arms and work together in

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
