During my fight with General of Fallen Angels, my army started slowly overpowering Fallen that were fighting against my devils.
Slowly, many Fallen Angels, were either killed by spells or in close combat.
Corpses of Fallen Angels were falling from the sky, like droplets of the water during heavy rain. For me, a devil, it was a beautiful sight to see. Soon enough, the rest of my army came in, which was ordered to deal with injured Fallen from the explosion of the Magic Tower.
After the rest of my army arrived, the situation completely turned around and hundreds of Fallen were being killed by each passing minute. I, as a newly found warmonger and battle maniac, joined the fight and started slaughtering the Fallen like cabbage.
Most of these Fallen were just Low-Class or Middle-Class, they were weak and their combat prowess was even lower than their Class. I heard some rumors that many Fallen weren’t good combatants and only a few of Fallen Armies were top-notch.
Namely, ones led by Azazel, Baraquiel, Kokabiel, and most notable one Azrael the Angel of Death. Though from what I heard, Azrael didn’t become part of the Grigori and rather occupied territory deep within the Underworld, far from Grigori and Devils, and became a rather reclusive group.
I wondered a little bit, why.
Why did the strongest Archangel ever created and born, chose to become a reclusive hermit.
I stored the body of the Fallen Angel General in my dimensional storage, as that could be used as my fuel for advancement when I unlock Devour Clan Trait.
I observed the process of cleaning the battlefield. I also ordered to properly clean the battlefield, meaning taking all weapons and armors. Devils normally didn’t do that, mainly nobles were against it as it was below them to take something from killed Fallen. I didn’t care.
All of those armors and weapons could be smelted and reforged into new things, that would make me money.
After one hour, the entire battlefield was cleared and all corpses of fallen were stored in separate dimensional strategy. I thought they could be useful later, maybe as food for monsters or something in that way.
Altogether, I came here with 100,000 soldiers, and fortunately, my losses were only aroáund between five to eight thousand, which was an excellent victory.
Before leaving, I left here half of my legion to guard the area, before sending here Arcane Mechanical Automatons to build here another Magic Tower as the entire array was now disrupted. The array was actually a super barrier formation, that was created by activating all Magic Towers of my territory at the same time, enveloping it in the barrier that should withstand even attacks of multiple Super-Devils or Greater Divinity Stage Gods.
It was something that I have created with help of an Architect to protect my territory during the Great War. During the war, there would be countless raids, surprise attacks, or ambushes aimed mainly at civilian-populated areas, and that was a great threat as loss of lives could be immeasurable.
Only several Houses had something like this, as it cost a great deal of money to create and required a very experienced and knowledgeable magician, so most Houses didn’t bother with creating such defensive arrays. Zekram had one for sure, he even had a smaller version of it, over each city, something that I was just working on.
Truth be told, I have planned to invest the majority of my wealth into the protection and fortification of my territory before the Great War. Wealth could be easily regained after the Great War, as then the entire infrastructure of devils would be in ruins. On the other hand, if the population is lost, the weakening would be for thousands of years if not permanent.
I have returned to the Fuerig Castle, with a satisfied feeling.
‘Hmm… I also need to check out the Familiar Forest sometimes.’
Familiar Forest was located in the Underworld filled with monsters that often bonded themselves with magicians or magical races as their servants. Familiar Forest to be precise was a location that devils used as their place to get Familiars and was controlled by Tiamat, one of the Five Dragon Kings.
She was a very terrifying entirety, a very strong one. Dragons were always were strong. Though if possible, I need to avoid her, someone that is stronger than pinnacle Satan-Class isn’t someone I wished to meet. Dragons in contrary to devils had an advantage in physique. Meaning, High-Class dragon was High-Class in energy and body at the same time, which gave the dragon ability to contend against weaker Ultimate-Class that depended on energy reserves solely.
Dragons excelled in magic and in close combat equally, so meeting someone like Tiamat wasn’t a good idea, and I even heard some rumors that she had a pretty bad temper, so unless I decided to bribe her with some treasures, it is big no.
When I read the compendium of familiar monsters, there was one that caught my eye. Not in strength or raw power, but rather in potential.
It was called Spitting Thorny Flower. It was pathetically weak and without proper abilities at the start, but it had immense evolutionary potential, as it could digest other corpses of other beings, using them as fertilizer to evolve. At later stages, when it evolves into higher evolutions, it obtains terrifying defensive abilities and even offensive at later stages.
There was noted that there was one of those, somewhere in the territory of the Hindu. It evolved to something called Flower Demoness, reaching terrifying strength comparable to the Greater Divinity Stage, it even caught the attention of Shiva, so much, that he decided to make the Flower Demoness his familiar. That was recorded as a rumor several thousands of years ago.
If it caught the attention of someone like Shiva, a Primordial Divinity Stage God, which is the same as Being of Law, it must have something in it. Who knows, what strength it reached now.
