Should I or shouldnt I? After giving it so thought, I finally decided to go in the end. Putting aside all the other considerations, losing that much potential fodder wasnt sothing I could ignore. If I were to allow Violet Snow to have her way, all the Abaddon Rodents would be slaughtered and I would have to find another fodder race and that, was just a bother. Better to capture them now and be done with it. Finding a new target takes effort after all.
Dearest, I heard that white puppy sent so news back.Ever since that inexplicable engagent, Numila stuck to like glue. Having just received that report myself, it didnt take long before she ca visiting after receiving news of the report herself. Are you leaving to help her?
Julia, you should go have a rest too. Ever since I had Julia help with the crafting, our weapon production rate improved decently. Each day, we managed to craft over a hundred weapons.
Seeing that Numila was here, she might as well take a break now while I handled this. Pulling Numila out of the crafting area, I expected hardly any resistance on the lizardman front. Since youre back already and since Violet Snow seed to have run into so problem, I think we should pay her front a visit. Those rats are nurous, just capturing half of them alive would basically solve our fodder problem.
So were going to battle then? Being a battle enthusiast, her eyes imdiately perked up as she heard that. Dearest, when do we leave to help? Those lizards were just too weak, all we had to do was toss a couple of javelins and they just gave in
Well, its not like those lizardn are idiots either. With no way to fly, why would they even take you head on. Besides, with that puppet ruler, Westley, as a diator, I bet a majority of those lizardn still thought that Habona was so reinforcent he brought in to contest the clans leadership.
Truth be told, the defensive quality of their scales werent that bad. Had it not been for gravity boosting the penetration of those sharpened bone javelins, those shoddy weapons probably wouldnt be able to penetrate their scales even if you stabbed them till their tips wore out.
Thus, Violet Snows engagent with the ratn was the true test of my air force. Furthermore, that was also the first ti I deployed my hellhound cavalry. From the report I got, their performance wasnt that bad either and there werent too many casualties.
Seeing that Violet Snow tossed the question back to , naturally, I would pick the choice that benefited the most.
Ready your kinsharpies, were setting off tomorrow to aid Violet Snow.
Alright, Dearests the best, this one just knew that you would bring her along with you! Grabbing my face, she firmly kissed before running off giggling. Seeing as we were about to head for war, she naturally had a lot of preparation to do.
Such an anxious girl.
Originally, I only intended to bring her along while getting my bodyguard team leaders, No.3 and Big 4 to co along. However, Mimiya ended up tagging along out of boredom. On the other hand, her brother Xixidi didnt seem all that eager to fight.
Once I left, the daily operations of our base would be temporarily left to Julia who in all honesty was probably a better manager than . She was an extrely capable lust demon and even though her combat strength was kind of lacklustre, her managerial capabilities more than made up for it. Unlike her, I was a deadbeat with zero leadership experience. From kindergarten all the way to college, I never even got the chance to be a team leader let alone a class leader.
With the army gathered and ready to depart, the rest of the devils in the base ca over to send us off. For the foot soldier section of this expedition, I brought along 2000 harpies and 300 guardsn. At the sa ti, I had Numila, Mimiya, Vick, No.3 and Big 4 to accompany as well.
Speaking of which, Vick and Mimiya seed to be getting along pretty well. In fact, these two potatoes seed to had been made for each other, after all, every potato needed an accompanint. However, at least these two potatoes knew to behave around and were currently standing quietly behind though, who knew if they were making faces behind .
Julia, while Im gone, all the matters in the base will be handled by you. Just make sure nothing major happens and dont overwork yourself.
Other than this lust demon, there really wasnt anyone else dependable amongst my subordinates. Before knowing , she already had experience managing over 2000 devils. Seeing as Mo En was basically a henpecked husband and didnt care about such matters, she handled all the matters back then as well.
Dont worry, your Highness, Ill handle everything well in your absence. I guarantee the plan will proceed smoothly. Giving a stealthy kick to her husband, Youll help as well, right Dearest?
Initially, Mo En was standing in a daze beside her wife when she suddenly kicked him. Not being able to react in ti, the potato groggily answered, drool still dripping from his mouth, Mhm mhm, the souls were delicious
Dearest! Seeing her husband act so out of line, her inner tigress imdiately reared its head.
Throwing a vicious glare at her dunce of a husband, she said nothing but gave him the you know whats going to happen look.
Realizing that he was in trouble, he imdiately got to his knees and hugged her thighs as he pleaded, NooI still want to sleep on the bed tonightyou promised alreadyyou cant just go back on your words like that
Idiot! Who told you to talk about that!
But I really want to sleep on the bed
Idiot, how could you talk about such things right now
But I really dont want to sleep on the floor
Shut up!
Woo woo
Ahahahahmore more
Behind , I could already hear the gloating giggles of Mimiya. As for Xixidi, he didnt seem to mind at all that his grandfather was currently embarrassing himself in public and was instead busy smacking his lips while gleefully hugging a piece of at, a silly looking smile crossed his lips as he did so.
Sigh, looking at that family of clowns, Julia didnt seem all that reliable all of a sudden.
Alright, while Im not here, make sure to pay more attention, Julia. Make sure nothing goes wrong. With that potato of a teammate, Mo En, by her side, it looks like I really had to lower the difficulty of this task.
If anything difficult crops up, just put it aside for now and wait till I get back. Ill leave the devil egg in your care as well, make sure to feed it souls constantly.
Understood, your Highness.
Other than that, there was basically nothing else for to worry about. Training the troops in the nest was handled by One-eye while managent was handled by Julia. Securitys Mo Enthere shouldnt be any issue there, right?
Just as I turned around to leave, One-eye took the lead in taking a half kneel and chanted, May the Master forever fly the flag of victory!
May the Master forever fly the flag of victory! Nine-finger and his cronies imdiately kneeled as well and chanted like they were offering a prayer.
Having lost the initiative in his bootlicking, No.5 imdiately noticed his failure as a professional bootlicker and promptly chid in to prove his existence: Ahthe Master is invincible, may the Master rule the world for a thousand seasons!
His bootlicking left speechless as always but when did One-eye learn to do so as well? I honestly didnt expect that from him. Good, good, this kid has potential.
In order to speed up our progress, I had the harpy witches carry the devils. As for , Numila was naturally the one who carried . These harpies had an astonishing speed and carrying capacity. Even with a devil weighing them down on one claw, their speed didnt drop that much.
In this manner, we rushed to the edge of the ratns territory in just four days. As for why I knew that this was their territory, thats because I could sll them even this high up.
Send out the scouts, since theres traces of ratn activity here, Violet Snow shouldnt be that far off either.
Alright. Numila imdiately turned to her subordinates and ordered them to search around the vicinity. Roughly ten minutes later, we got our first report. In the distance, I spotted a lone harpy closing in on our location to report her findings.
After waiting for the majority of the scouts to return, Numila then turned to to deliver the collated information.
Dearest, this ones kinsharpies reported that they found no trace of battle nearby however there were traces of the other races left behind. Even though it was faint, we can confirm that it belonged to Elenas clan. If you require us to track them down, we can follow this scent trail.
In this bony prison, there were undead cleaners who cleaned up the battlefields and repaired the maze in general. Even if the walls were to get damaged sohow, the cleaners would automatically co to repair them after leaving them alone for a while. In other words, it wasnt strange at all that they found no traces of battle.
Thankfully, the harpies had an impressive tracking ability that could pick up such faint clues.
Follow them, hopefully everythings still well at Violet Snows front.
Mhm.
With that, the order was given by Numila to set off in pursuit. The harpies picked up a devil as before and took to the air. As for , I was pressed tightly against a couple of dangerous weapons.
Thatthat Numila truly has a lot of at packed up here
Following the scent trail, we flew for another two more days before encountering Violet Snow. When we found them, they were already in the midst of surrounding a group of rodents and slaughtering them. Judging from the corpses strewn all over, these rats really stood no chance against them.
Of the dead bodies I could see, none of them were devils, let alone hellhounds, dusas or harpies.
The majority of the rat corpses were peppered with bone javelins that were barely visible from a distance due to their short length. Compared to the hardy scales of the lizardn, their defensive strength was notably lacking. Thus, it didnt take much for the airborne javelineers to skewer them.
If the javelin hit a fatal spot, a couple of them were even able to kill off a rodent on the spot. Lets not forget that I gave each of these harpies four javelins and that so of these javelins could still be reused
At the end of the day, the ratns biggest weakness was that they had no ranged capabilities and neither were they able to flyin other words, they were nothing more than a bunch of furry target dummies that movedsuddenly, this whole air force thing seed so busted.
