Demon King Ashtas Plan
The frontlines were in chaos.
The kobolds were shouting, and the wraiths cooley snuffed them out.
And then the lion-headed warrior sent the wraiths extravagantly back to their graves.
For a mont, there was an odd sort of balance to it, but this could not be sustained for long.
The kobolds had limited numbers, and there were even fewer wraiths.
The line would crumble soon.
And then it happened. Just as the last wraith was exterminated by Sabnac, the kobolds turned to attack . But they beca victims of my magic.
Well, martial arts.
My body was enhanced with magic, allowing to dodge their attacks and retaliate with a fist full of power.
The kobolds went flying into the air with a single hit. The lion warrior saw this.
Ho ho.
He snarled.
I thought there would only be a green infant here. But, you surprise So, you are Ashtaroth.
Its an honor to finally make your acquaintance?
I say lightheartedly, but Sabnac does not smile.
Ive heard the reports. The slender, magician-like man is the new Demon King. You match the description.
I think they forgot handso?
I dont have ti for your jokes.
No, you dont.
You sared mud on my face. You used to attack the humans so you could steal from my storage houses. I dont know if Ive ever heard of such cowardice before.
I did ask for your protection, but I dont rember signing any official docunts.
So anything goes without a promise written on paper?
I suppose. Well, that makes quite the villain, doesnt it?
I laugh self-deprecatingly and pick up a fallen short sword.
It had been used by a kobold not long ago.
And I did not need to ask for permission.
In this case, we must let our weapons do the talking.
I see. So you are fully prepared to have your head removed.
Oh, I dont know about that. It might be you whose head separates from his body.
You are below a novice with the sword. I see no reason that I would lose.
Yes, but my magic is quite different.
So this will be swords against magic then? Amusing.
Sabnac spat, and raised his greatsword into the air.
It was a slow move, but I didn't feel like pressing in for an attack yet. I would probably be split right down the middle if I did.
And thats what happened.
A second later, Sabnac's greatsword swung down and severed in two.
It was a clean cut that went from head to groin, but I could still speak.
Because he had cut through an illusion.
Sabnac knew it imdiately by the lack of resistance.
Tsk!
He snarled.
You think youre clever!
Maybe a little.
I attack from the shadows.
I was not within his range of vision and was able to slide my short sword into his side.
Or not, he moved out of the way with an inhumanely quick reflex.
Youre quick. Like a cat.
I am a lion! The lion king!
Unamused at being called a cat, the lion king swung his sword with all of the force he could manage.
The power was overwhelming, the blade barely slid past and slamd into the ground. The impact was not too different from teor.'
