{ALERT: AN S-RANK GREATER DEMON HAS ARRIVED IN ZONE 1121-1. THE SEEKER WAR HAS BEEN SUSPENDED. WARP RESTRICTIONS HAVE BEEN LIFTED}
My teeth began to chatter as fear and unease made want to run.
But as the creature in front of kept its eyes on , I knew escape was impossible.
{PLEASE EVACUATE THE ZONE IMDIATELY! THIS IS NOT A DRILL.... ALERT: AN S-RANK}
Despite the announcents with souls, I found myself rooted in place.
"Get a fucking grip, John," I whispered to myself.
Clenching my fists, I tensed my muscles to drive out the fear. According to my soul sensing, this... whatever it was had the soul depth of a low-level Specter.
The monster was even bigger than a fucking cyclops. The biggest thing I have faced so far was a level E undead monster with one eye. It was over 25 feet tall, but it was heavy and slow.
"Exa. How big is this fucking bastard?"
[You can use [Cyborg] and scan it with {Imaging} - Holographic].
I followed her words and saw the monster as a 3D image. Like a model in a video ga, I could asure and inspect the thing from all angles.
"Have I always had this ability?"
[Yes. It cos with {Imaging}.]
For the record, the monster was exactly 58.1 feet. It was as big as a fucking Gundam! I then tried to get more information.
"[Analyze]."

"..."
The sheer size of the bastard's status page made my jaw clench. It took a few seconds to scroll through it's status. Yet apart from his na and race, everything else was useless.
I kind of resented being compared to this thing. I could use what, 8 {Fates}? And if I used Manifested {Fates}? I could use maybe 3. This bastard, on the other hand, had over 100.
'100 {fates} just how fucking insane was that?'
Andromalius had a humanoid body with extra features. He had a pair of bat-like wings on his back and octopus tentacles on his mouth. His entire body looked like it was made of jagged rocks mixed with reptilian scales.
As if that were not enough, his claws look ridiculously huge. Similar to the ones you would see on dragons. He also had extra appendages that looked like scorpion tails. They protruded from his back and forearms.
Fearing the worst, I quickly called for my girls.
'Sirens. Co to .'
In a split second, the girls all used {Blink} and appeared behind . Happy that my harem was all accounted for, I checked their vitals. I noticed that all seven girls were silent.
They all looked terrified, and I could sense it from our pseudo kindred connection. Rather than reassure them with words, I would do so with actions.
I chased away my own fear as I walked forward.
"Andromalius. Why the fuck are you here? You are invading the North Arican Battlefront. Leave. Or be killed where you stand."
Sotis acting like a complete asshole was the fastest way to get your nerves under control. With my harem present, I could not afford to cower. No matter how I felt, if I didn't stand my ground, we would all die.
"HAHAHAAHA! Magnificent! Even though your body is shaking like a leaf, you display such courage! Have human reapers always had such backbone? The ones I ate all begged for rcy or went insane."
The demon's loud voice bood like a thunderclap. His words, even without a soul, made flinch uncontrollably. It was like a lamb cowering before a wolf.
It was buried deep in my genetics. And I couldn't stop myself from being afraid.
'Fucking pathetic,' I chastised myself.
I an, the sheer size of this fucker was enough to be intimidating, and if you added the power and depth of its soul signature, anyone would understand that we were already in deep shit.
Andromalius' face tentacles all shook as if to express his amusent. While still in [Cyborg], I sent a ssage to my harem via technopathy in the Minerva Network.
[Limitless: Everyone. The zone has been opened. You can all warp out now. I order you all to run at once. I will keep him busy.]
But what happened next was both sothing I expected and yet managed to surprise .
Liv moved forward undaunted and began loading sacred 10-gauge shells into 1887.
[Freyja: My love, if you expect to obey such a ridiculous command, you are a fool. You can cancel the honeymoon for all I care, I am not leaving. We die, we die together.]
Robyn and Jo took positions beside her as they also switched their magazines to Sacreds.
[Rhiannon: Possum, I promised Ma I would bring you ho. I will do it even if I have to kill ten of these fucking wankers.]
[Vela: Darling, I can't have a honeymoon without my man! We still have to have a threeso with Jas! Don't worry about it! We got this!]
[Satis: Jo! What the hell are you saying?! And husband, punish all you want, we will get out of here together or not at all.]
Jasmine walked over to my soul avatars, sulking unhappily. Aki also moved to the opposite side as she HK slapped the MP5SD. A seductive smile that seed to tease not only but the rest of the Sirens was on her face.
[Inari: Ara Ara, Shujin. Why don't we run away together and leave this ss to the others? If everyone is so eager to fight, why not let them? Let's have a great ti exploring each other's bodies on our honeymoon instead, just the two of us.]
[Minerva: Aki, stop being a depraved slut. Also, you guys are all idiots. This thing is a demon, you know? There are hardly any IRIS reports of them being defeated. Especially for a greater demon from the Ars Goentia.]
[Ishtar: You say that and yet here you stand, Bella. The dissonance between your words and your actions are comical. Make up your mind. It is unsightly. Dearest, much like before, you now stand as a Phantom before a Demon. When will your recklessness ever cease to amaze?]
Behind my soul avatars, Lilly changed the pig's ammo belt while Bella looked to the west. As I tried to follow Mrs. Code's line of sight, I saw a large convoy of UGVs approaching.
[Limitless: So you say, but weren't you the one who added a Rank D Undead Brute and an Undead Stalker in the sa enlistnt? Sotis I think you and Administration wanted everyone to die back then.]
[Vela: I know, right? It was complete bullshit!]
[Satis: Jo and I later found out that the normal opponent during an enlistnt was only a Rank E Giant, Cyclops, or Spikedog. Judging by such an insane standard, the North Arican battlefront is run by lunatics.]
[Freyja: I completely agree. It was a miracle that anyone survived. Who was it that chose those bosses? What would Administration have done if no one had passed?]
[Rhiannon: Possum was the only good thing that ca out of it.]
[Inari: Hmm... I think having two rank Ds for Wraiths was a bit much. Even if the White Guard was present, it would have defeated the purpose if no one managed to survive.]
[Minerva: Though, if you look at it objectively. It all started with the July Enlistnt. I an, Honey aside, the rest of us wouldn't have survived long enough to get to this point.]
[Ishtar: Actually, I was against the whole thing. But the one who decided was a Revenant. The White Guard wasn't supposed to be deployed at all. I negotiated to reduce it to two Rank D's. Still, I am quite happy.]
[Rhiannon: The fuck is there to be happy about?]
