Vol 3 Chapter 80 (2/2)
[HUH! WHAT!? HOW MANY OF THEM!?](AUGUST)
“They were too fast to count clearly… It was probably around 3 bodies!”(Reccoon Squad)
[damn IT! AND!? WHICH WAY WERE THEY HEADED!?](AUGUST)
“That way!”(Raccoon Squad)
The direction the recon unit member pointed at…
[THAT DIRECTION IS… THEY’RE HEADED FOR EARLSHYDE!](AUGUST)
The crisis was not over yet(Kaelpie: Cliffhangers like a fucking canyon)
BATHOS!
In theof the strategy
At that ti that the de on!? Until just awhile ago they didn’t show any signs of taking any action at all!”(August)
Gus sprang out of his tent and approached a soldier stationed outside
“I-I don’t know! An explosion happened and the sounds of fighting could be heard froather at one place in the city!”(Murdoc)
“Sounds of battle!? Iust)
“I-I don’t know!”(2D)
Hearing the soldier talking to August sent shi+vers down my spine
Which reminds me, there was a certain so a devil
“The Dahm commander!? Where is Ralph!?”(shi+n)
“Dah to the Dahm soldiers, Ralph, the co a devilI didn’t believe theust)
“shi+t! He actually went and attacked! Hey!”(shi+n) (Kaelpie: RIP RalphNever got to fulfill his potential and establish a harem)
“Y-Yes!”(Noodle)
“Go to Dahust)
“Roger that!”(Russel)
As the soldier ran off we started preparing for battle
“Tiic so we can fly to the city!”(August)
“Got it!”(shi+n)
I casted floating ic and flew off at high speed to the city
This is the worst possible scenario…
Flying through the sky all the while hoping the demons still haven’t left the city
The soldier that was ordered by August to search Dahht to the Ys commander
Even if you’re ordered to search the tent, your accused party is still a country’s commander
That task was too heavy for a ured it would be better if the tent was investigated by commander of a country that is closely related to Dahm
“What did you say!? Dahhness Augusto seemed convinced…”(Genex Neutron)
“I understandIf it’s prince Augusto thereto Dahm’s tent!”(Ys commander)
Ys commander took several men with him to the tent of Dahm’s commander
When they arrived at the tent, it was closed perfectly while the entire ca a fuss
Dahm soldiers see out as well
“Hey! What happened to Ralph!?”(Ys commander)
“T-That… He didn’t co this commotion…”(Genex Spare)
“What did you say!?”(Ys cousts concern was proven right
“Hey! Commander Ralph! Are you in there!?”(Ys co in!”(Ys commander)
With those feords, Ys commander stepped into the tent
“Cheh!”(Ys commander)
“W-what is this!?”(Genex Recycled)
The first thing they sensed when they entered the tent was a suffocating s over the tent to find it’s source, there were the corpses of several st the corpses there was no figure that matches Ralph’s
“This… What the hell happened!”(Ys commander)
“I don’t understand… And the fact that co themYou should temporarily take comht… We’ll find out the truth laterDevil subjugation is top priority and Ys will temporarily take control of Dahm troopsPlease tell Dahm that”(Ys commander)
“Yes!”(Genex Searcher)
“Still… Why are there corpses in a place like this…”(Ys commander)
This is Dahm co back in time a bit…
Ralph and his faction anted to kill devils before shi+n took action gathered little by little inside his tent in order to sneak out around ot together and tried to move out, one of the soldiers raised his voice
“Please wait coain, you should stop this plan”(Voice of reason)
“What did you say? You… insult the church of creation… Are you going against God’s will!?”(Ralph) (Nyx:suddenly someone calls themselves God)
In Ralph’s eyes, all who oppose his actions are heretics for he is carrying out God’s will
“I a like this is God’s will!”(Voice of reason)
“Wh-What did you say…!?”(Ralph)
Ralph started tree
“Sure, I can’t be convinced soer of God or SaintHowever! This is a different ether!”(Voice of reason)
“…”(Ralph)
Ralph is so angry he’s speechless
“I don’t agree with their title, but their ability is genuine! You should leave this to them so you don’t provoke the devils for no reason!”(Voice of reason)
“That’s right! Please reconsider! Ralph!”(Survival instinct)
“Ralph!”(Literal call from God)
Several soldiers raised their voices to stop Ralph in any way they can
Because they were so desperate in the persuading they failed to notice their surrounding
“Is that so… I understand”(Ralph)
“R-Ralph!”(Voice of reason)
Ralph received their insistence
The soldiers who opposed going after the devils collectively breathed a sigh of relief
But…
“I understandYou are not necessary”(Ralph)
“RRalph?”(Voice of reason)
Immediately after Ralph said that…
“Gyah!”
“RRalph… Why…”(Voice of reason)
“Didn’t I already say? You’re not needed”(Ralph)
While they were desperately trying to stop Ralph, the other soldiers snuck behind them
When they heard Ralph’s re to stop the subjugation from behind
“Such… Ralph…”(Chances of survival)
A person called Ralph Portdoine a person like that would coainst God’s will and trying to disturb our actions as God’s servantsYou are heretics”(Ralph) (Kaelpie: Ok, God-E…”(Ralph’s future hare)
“Shut up”(Ralph)
“RRalph… Guah!”(Ralph’s ancestors collectively facepal soldiers skewered them one after another
Every soldier that co behind an expression of surprise and sorrow
As a result, there is no one left in the tent ould disagree with Ralph’s actions
“Tch! To put a dao you guys”(Ralph)
[DEUS VULT!]
With Ralph’s opposition gone, he ordered the reht watch is arranged in pairs around the parts that connectone person can rest while the other stands guard
The role of a night watchht-tiic tool running
It’s in pairs because one person cannot keep the ht by themselves
Besides, it wasn’t even considered that a person would try to leave the cao to bed ahead of tiht under the noses of the careless guards and out of the caroup of about 50 people pulled away from the camp of humanities forces and towards the devil city
In the report of the reconnaissance unit there were no guards in the town at all
When they arrived to the town, they found a hole in the wall, which eight or so devilsover the town and easily entered the town from there(Kaelpie: What kind of a sorry excuse for a crusader are you? Ah their mind was clouded by fanaticism, they were still the elites of their countriesto plan
The problematic part starts nowHow to slay a devilBecause Ralph didn’t trust shi+n, he thought slaying devils would be easy
Ralph who invaded the city, grasped the position of deic power and s collapsed by the devils so it was quite convenient to hide in
Ralph believed this was also God’s will at work and thus he becaation will succeed so he finally decided to start the attack
When observing the situation fro
Not only Ralph who couldn’t use ical power described in Merlin’s story froain, Ralph decided that a devil isn’t really strong, but it’s poas just exaggerated so you would think it was a powerful enemy to have the feat stand out
By this point, the phrase “Cancelling the attack” completely disappeared fro of the attack
Devils ere targeted showed no signs of being aware of the i attack
Ralph was already fully convinced of his victory
He decided the tio)
Ralph ordered the beginning of the raid with a hand signal
Because the surprise attack begins with aaround in the shade of the collapsed buildings
The soldiers ju their swords at the devils without any hesitation
However, just when it seemed the soldier’s sould reach the devil, the devil turned around and caught the sith his bare hand
“What!? What is this!?”(I this decision)
The soldier raised an astonished voice
A twisted sht the sword barehanded
“Kukuku, Did you think ouldn’t notice if you careat nuical powerDo you really think you can beat us?”(AzaTHOT)
They thought the devils didn’t notice them at all but they knew from the moment Ralph and his crew entered the town
In other words…
“R-Ralph! Around us… The devils surrounded us!”(Maxiuys hiding there, we know everything!”(Beelzebub)
They were co and it was Ralph who didn’t notice anything
Ralph had forgottenThey were originally huic power
And that they have a will and can controlassumption that the devils eak
“Huhu, it was easy to spot these humans because they were scared and slow”(Sorath)
“Why’s that asshole acting like our leader?”(AzazelNot the Tekken one)
“It’s like that isn’t it? Wasn’t it just because he was the first one to rebel against Stromm?”(Cthulhu)
“It his fault that the hu slowLet’s strip his)(Kaelpie: Gonna rip out his lungs while he’s at it)
“That’s rightLet’s try and conquer the world again” (Gorath)
“Heh, but before that…”(MardukAgain, not the Tekken one)
The devils gazes which were frustrated for soret)
“First of all… Let’s take care of these guys” (Raroup of devils(Kaelpie: I’ve seen enough hentai to knohere this is going)
If one is surrounded they despair
Those who surround are overjoyed
Every one of the
And…
The battle between devils and soldiers… Instead it was a one sided slaughter ofto do now?”(Bapho future plans
“Bringas the leaderIf we show him this situation, we can ask hiot discovered”(Satyr)
“You’re right about thatGive ht now… Pretending to be our superior, I bet he oroth)
Devils have been cooped up here for quite a while and had a lot of pent up aggressionThings finally began to change but they couldn’t think of a plan
If hu the vicinity
And that means shi+n must be here too
They were cooped up here because their raids were stopped twice by the group of huicians, and on top of that the second tiain
The ambush was entirely a coincidence but the devils still saw shi+n as a considerable threat
The devils were people who didn’t receive an education so they couldn’t even iht be close
The devil leader finally came after a while, and looked over to the corpses of Ralph and his men
“Wh! A hue shock when he exahtBecause you’re just idling around, the humans found out about this place”(Abraxas)
“What are you talking about!? Do you understand what this situation ainst those calravity of the situation
“AAH? It’s your fault that the humans found this place, is it not? Take responsibility”(Rakshasas)
“This not the ti like that! If this place was already discovered by the huan)
“Those guys just attacked us not a while ago, there’s no way they’ll co to say!? You fuckin’ idiots!”(Berith)
“Oh!? Do you blah! We’ll escape! You all escape too!”(Mephistophiles)
“Don’t fuck around! You alone escape if you want to bastardWe start our world conquest here”(Dagwanoenyent)
“Ugh! To hell with you then!”(Moloch)
The devil leader gave up on the stubborn devil and fled with several others
“What the hell… They were scared after all”(Ukobach)
“Oh well, it’s fine isn’t it? Now that he has leftWe don’t have to bear his arrogance anyhtIdiots! Then let’s start our newly founded devil armies world conquest!”(Jeff)
[HOOOO!]
With this they can dreaain
Unlike when Ralph invaded, they were excited about their possible future
For that reason they neglected to look out for eneic
When they renewed their resolve towards world conquest…
Froic power poured down
As soon as we heard reports of devils being on the move we rushed towards the city and saw a crown of deust)
“I’m certainly interested but we don’t have time to think about thatWe attack as is!”(shi+n)
“I mean…”(Maria)
“A full frontal assaultWhatever trap they’re setting, we’ll pulverize it!”(shi+n)
[[Roger!]] (Kaelpie: Onwards to reclai in one place is actually quite convenient
I thought we’d have to pincer the but this is quite the pleasant surprise!
[Devils are gathering in one placeDo not let a single one escape! Wipe theht!]]
“I’ic! Ready your jet boots!”(shi+n)
[Go!](August)
Froave the coic
From here on we move freely across the battlefield with jet boots
At Gus’ command a rain of thunder, flame bullets, ice spears and wind blades were hurled at the devils
“Haaa! Wh-What!?”(Iblis)
“Aaaiiieeee! It’s them! They’re here!”(Hecate)
“Why are they here!?”(Callicantzaros)
“Shut up! Stop talking and counter attack!” (Cilantro)
Unlike before, the devils couldn’t escape since they were all gathered in one place, so they desperately fought back
“Yikes! That was dangerous!”(Alice)
Alice blocks the ic tool, then shoots a counter
Siood thing I gave theic wasn’t able to penetrate our barriers but our h completely…
“Watch your back”(Tony)
“Ha!? You…”(Tlaltecuhtli)
Tony slipped behind the devils and their barriers and cut the personnel kid…)
This ti the in close quarters with the sas a tactic that worked in Swedes as well
What was I doing while everyone was routing the devils?
“Ha! asshole! What do you think you’re doing!”(Vrykolakas)
“Do you think you can escape?”(shi+n)
“Urgh…”(Xaphan)
I withdrew fro to escape
I planned on gradually narrowing down the encirclement froathered in one place I could just pick theet away from such a perfect setup
Everyone understands that and continues shooting ic at full power
“Gah, shi+t! What power!” (Astolfo)
“You sure it’s alright to keep looking over there?”(shi+n)
“Wha– GUHAAA!?”(Lechies)
When the nu the deroup and the deic thrown so far
“Hey there!”(Yuri)
“Hiyah!”(Sicily)
Sicily and Yuri aren’t very good at offensive ht down a devil
These devils really aren’t that big of a dealI think theylike this they et annihilated without a hitch
After this, we find Stromm and end it once and for all
“fuck! shi+t! Even though I have this power! Because of that bastard!”(Lix Tetrax)
One of the last re devils cried out as his comrades fell around hi about?
While doing so, the devil got hit by ic someone released
The struck devil tuhh… All of this is cause of Stromm’s incompetence…”(Haborym)
“It’s… Stromm’s fault?”(shi+n)
I rushed to the fallen devil to try and get the truth out of hihtered, Stroether, so grasping an eneic power is usually iic power like Stromm’s can’t be mistaken
And now the last words this devil said: “because of Stromm”
Could it be…
“Hey! Where is Strorabbed the injured devil by the scruff of his neck and asked about Strohout the town, now quiet after all the devils have been slain and the battle stopped
“Hey, shi+nWhat happened?”(August)
“He said so worrisomeHey! Is Stromm not here!?”(shi+n) (Kaelpie: Bat for air reacted to
“That sort of… inco satisfied… by destroying The Empire… Foolishness…”(Kappa)(Kaelpie: I’ve severely underestimated how many lines the devils have…)
“Satisfied by the destruction of The E countries!?”(shi+n)
“For world conquest… We alone have decided… Only us… Even if is… Only us…”(Melchiresa)
As he said that the devil turned his gaze away
Stro the e countries
And Stromm isn’t here
This is probably…
“You… Was there internal strife?”(shi+n)
The devil reacted to those words
“SHUT UP! BECAUSE OF THAT bastard! EVERYTHING WAS GOING WELL UNTIL YOU PEOPLE SHOW UP!”(Nybbas)
The devil suddenly began gathering athered ic barrier with your full power! He’s going to ! (Kaelpie: Allahu Akbar)(shi+hetti Flyingto take us doith hiet away
However, if he blows up here, the bodies of Ralph and his coathered will be bloay as well(Kaelpie: Who gives half a flying fuck about the the vibrating sword at hi blow before he could explode just like against Cart
“Fool! shi+n, run away!”(August)
However…
“shi+n! No!”(Sicily)
I couldn’t ic poent out of control and sed the surroundings in a huge explosion
Arrrggghhh! daic barriers and combat uniforms I was just fine but the bodies of Ralph and his co internally)(Nyx:grabs a handful of popcorn while watching the fireworks)
As the siven that I couldn’t do anything about it anyic in case some devils survived
Then, there was a reaction that caht at ht
“Are you okay?? Sicily-”(shi+n)
“A so reckless!?”(Sicily)
I caught Sicily that ju atwith his suicide boht it would be bad if…”(shi+n)
“Even so! First of all put your safety first! If so happened to shi+n, I… I…”(Sicil)
Aah, this is bad! I made Sicily cry! (Kaelpie: Honestly, what doesn’tSicily that burst into tears, everyone else gathered
“Really… It’s certainly unfortunate that we can’t retrieve the corpses but soust)
“Uuu… Bad…”(Sicily)
“After all, it bleay all of theh I wasn’t able to confirm it, there was a corpse that looked like commander Ralph out of the ones killed in battle
I couldn’t recover the corpse and there were no traces of it anywhere
I ended up worrying Sicily and the others for nothing…(Kaelpie: screa externally)
“Well, if what that devil said was true, then this isn’t over”(August)
“Stro countries”(shi+n
“OhPerhaps it was because the eetThe ones that broke aere probably dissatisfied with thatThat would explain this series of bad raids”(August)
“What does that mean?”(shi+n)
“Wasn’t there a rumour that said the number of devils would suddenly increase each tiust)
“Oh”(shi+n)
“He probably turned commoners into devilsAnd the coust)
So that’s why
Empire’s commoners didn’t receive an education like the one in Earlshyde
Because they couldn’t think strategically, they haphazardly attempted the same raid twice
Then since they were repelled twice, they didn’t knohat to do… He said
“It’s a believable reason when you think about it…”(shi+n)
“Still, they ht have been able to succeed in their world conquestBut since you were there… That was the only bad luck oust)
Gus told , seriously? Did this turn into a shojo , yes)
What is it? You’re usually acting all cool and now you have a face like that
“We’ll handle Stromm later… With the exception of The E else, so it ust)
“Is that all right? He has also done quite a few horrible things in Earlshyde as well hasn’t he?”(shi+n)
“If he was an ordinary huent devilTo provoke hiust)
“…Fro serious…”(shi+n)
“That’s how it isWell, let’s go tell everyone we’ve subjugated the devils”(August)
As Gus said that, he started heading out of the city
I guess it can’t be helpedWe are way past the point of talking about individual cri and followed Gus
“This is the end”(shi+n)
“YeahI’ of which, when the crisis is over…
“Now… The wedding”(August)
“Fueh!? Oh, that’s right!(shi+n)
Elly did say that we’ll hold a wedding ceremony after the crisis is over
It’s not yet decided ill happen with Stromm, and it will be a ceremony overseen by pope Ekatarina, so it will be a while for all the preparations to finish but as soon as the devil crisis is over, the next … Bride…”(Sicily)
I take Sicily by the hand and lead her out of town because she started daydrea for us
[TELL EVERYONE! ALL THE DEVILS THAT WERE HIDING IN THE TOWN ARE SUBJUGATED!](AUGUST)
When Gus declared that to everyone using voice a cheers broke out
[Oliver Stroht to be the leader of the devils wasn’t present but we found out whyThis is the end of the crisis…](AUGUST)
“hold up”(Vault Boy)
The reconnaissance teams interrupted Gus as he tried to declare the end of the crisis
[WHAT IS IT? WHAT HAPPENED?](AUGUST)
Gus’ voice reic
“We have a report! A few hness attacked the devils, we’ve confir the town!”(Reccon squad)
Seriously!? There were some that ran away before be arrived!?
[HUH! WHAT!? HOW MANY OF THEM!?](AUGUST)
“They were too fast to count clearly… It was probably around 3 bodies!”(Reccoon Squad)
[damn IT! AND!? WHICH WAY WERE THEY HEADED!?](AUGUST)
“That way!”(Raccoon Squad)
The direction the recon unit member pointed at…
[THAT DIRECTION IS… THEY’RE HEADED FOR EARLSHYDE!](AUGUST)
The crisis was not over yet(Kaelpie: Cliffhangers like a fucking canyon)
