"What the fuck are you talking about?" George cried out in fury
"Boy, you are not suggesting what I think you are right? Are you a scale lover of so sort?" the Bison added.
Not willing to waste ti, I turned the steering wheel sharply to the left. As the bull was to our left, we went under its massive hoofs.
"WOAH What out you bastard!"
"Sorry! I know it does not make sense, but trust ," I said curtly.
No longer waiting for them, I put the pedal to the tal as the V8 engines of my Esca roared like a hungry beast.
Inside the car, the sudden movent shook my passengers awake. My battle harem on the other hand tried to provide counsel.
"Dearest are you sure about this? We only allied with Roach, we do not have the strength to take on 24 champion classes on top of vampires. If the Lizardkin do not see us as allies we will be put into a rough spot."
"Beloved, while I see the value in creating alliances, it is dangerous to do so in the heat of battle! Loyalty is sothing not all being share, it would better to use them as cover instead. We do not own these monsters anything!"
"Husband, you know I would do whatever you ask. But I strongly believe we should not interfere, there is too much at stake. This gamble is sothing we might not recover from."
You knew it was a bad idea when my girls all had the sa opinion. Despite Liv and Lilly being part of those that wanted to use the monsters as allies or pets, both disagreed with my decision right now.
Of course they were right. My decision to ally with Roach was because we were the stronger force. To put it context, he had no choice but to agree to our demands. Primarily because the only other option was to die.
But for these bastards, that wasn't the case. While the seemingly large number of Lizardkin were hardly worth anything the presence of 24 champion ranked monsters was. My harem and I almost died to just one of them. If all of them had the ability to cut through {fates}, we might not survive.
I knew that. I knew all of that. Yet one thing kept repeating in my mind.
{Relatively. I am strong to the weak. And weak to the strong. The vampires enslaved my people because of our weakness. If we can get stronger, we can free ourselves of their power.}
{If you help kill the vampires. I can beco king. Once I am, I can enforce on all Lizardkin to no longer assault the humans.}
{I will have my clan protect and protect humans when we see them.}
Roach was no beast. He was for all intents and purposes capable of both rational thought and foresight for risk and reward. Unlike dogs that turn feral, these monsters had brains that went beyond that. They were being who had as much intelligence as us.
'Darling, I do not detect any malice from it. Alphy is even dumber than Robyn! It really hates the Pale ones. Oh! And I read its mind, the Pale ones are vampires. Turns out a bunch of vampires butchered its harem for sport.
It has had a grudge on them ever since.'
In ani and manga, a common the was to befriend races that were not human. Whether it be elves, dwarves or cat girls. So even went beyond that and married demons, succubi and eldritch horrors.
I was at a crossroads. It was now to decide for real how to treat the monsters. If I really saw them as nothing more than cannon fodder, then it would be best to leave them to die.
But, what if Roach was soone like ? All he wanted was to survive. He did not want to wage war with the humans. He did so because he literally had no choice. That trail of though begs the question.
What if soone gave him that choice?
What if an alternate future existed for both of us.
The Lizardkin moved like an army. They had a hierarchy and even the lowest of them understood the authority of a king. If we could ally them for real, they would be an even greater help than reapers from other continents.
However all that was nothing more than a possibility. If no one would extend their hands towards them they would not know such a possibility even exists. The monsters were similar to the groups I took under my wing.
Formless, Saints, slaves, rogues and now monsters.
My brain told that this was the wrong choice. That the odds of this being the correct choice was less than one percent. But sothing told it was the right choice. If I didn't learn of the vampires plot I probably would not be this desperate for allies.
Sneaking behind a country at rest and one preparing for war was like night and day. Operation paper beca significantly harder all because the vampires were preparing for a war, that the reapers had not even believed would happen.
But I knew.
If we continued with operation paper, we would die. No matter how powerful we were, fighting the entire vampire army, one ant to swallow a continent with 15 people was a suicide mission. I was lucky that I found out, otherwise going in blind was insanity.

I had my girls waiting for .
I would never succumb to fear but being fearless and being stupid had a fine line. Death ca for those who thought the two were one and the sa.
Without stopping I called out to the won I loved the most.
"My {Kindred} do you trust ?"
"Naturally, Dearest. Didn't I say it before? Wherever you lead, I will follow."
"Without question beloved. I do not care if we die. So long as we die together."
"More than anything else Husband. You are my destiny, my place is by your side, no matter what."
Trying to keep my emotions from spilling out, I nodded before addressing the others around .
"Leo, Nyda, Pixie, D. I am about to do sothing extrely stupid. You don't have to co with . But I would appreciate it if you did. Decide now."
One after another my party mbers replied.
"Hehehe, my lord, I will go with you. I am your {Vassal}! If you didn't take in I would still be washing dishes in Arcus Kiss. My life is yours to command my lord!" Pixie chirped in excitent.
"I am the sa, Brutha. The rest of the world be looking at us slaves us like trash. Now I be a man once more. I fight only for you and Pixie, Brutha. Let's fucking go." Delroy said as he raised his gun.
"My lord, when I wanted to save my sister, everyone told I was insane. My friends, those I considered my brothers and sisters…they all said to give up. Only you did not. Despite insanity and logic, you aided . I will rember that for as long as I live my lord. Nyda Flowers, servant of Limitless, stands ready."
"I am the sa. Leo Armstrong requests his only lord. Permission to take the vanguard."
Despite heading to certain death the ones with were all filling to follow. The guilt I would feel if any of them died would probably be sothing I would carry for all eternity. But should we survive this battle, I know these people would be part of my family.
"Thank you. Then lets us go kill so vampires. Lilly, please take the wheel."
"Of course, Dearest. Do as you will."
"Everyone, get ready for battle," I announced.
"YES, MY LORD!" x7
