Chapter 163: Movements On All Four Sides Off The Battlefield IV

[Former Beastman Outpost]

During the screening hot day quite far from the grand Kingdom's lands, lay the outstretched outpost that was once belongs to the Beastman Country

This outpost was also the same outpost out of the two recently attacked places by the Demon's, after killing all the Beastman that was stationed there, the Demon's started erecting their very own camps

As the Demon's were having their way, the space a little above their encampment started to distort as black flames unnaturally spreads out by a few diameters forming into human shaped figure

Following that two gigantic demonic black wings suddenly spreads out from the sky, followed by a gloved hand stretching out towards the horizon which was swinged sideways to disperse the remaining black flames

As the black flames deminishes, the whole encampment came into an uproar as they slowly showed their respect and bowed down towards the newly arrived demon

Hepta however as she still hearing out the plans and preparation of the stratigizing Demon commander's and Captain's in front of her, she suddenly felt the flunctuations Mana in the air and the sudden change of the Demon's outside

As she felt that she immediately rose to her feet and stopped the meeting by slicing down the table using her harbinger axe

Following that she suddenly stated

"Someone's here... . . Behave yourself"

As the Demon commander's and Captain's wondered what she said, they suddenly simultaneously felt the changes in the atmosphere as they instinctually glanced outside their tent

Calmly Hepta trod out of her camp and confront the newly arrived Demon, followingly the Demon commander's and Captain's also came out, but the moment that they did, they however immediately bowed down to show respect

"I didn't expect you to arrive here Belial"

Apparently  the Demon that arrived was Belial the Archdemon, one of the vassal of the Demon king and the strongest among them

"Well i didn't expect you to win against your foes considering that you only rely on brute strength alone" replied Belial calmly as he retracted his wings

"Hmm... . . Fair enough... . . What brings you here?" Asks Hepta

"Same reason as you... . . Boredom" replied Belial as he passes through Hepta and glanced at the Demon's behind her

Currently Belial was donned on a tailcoat suite with two white gloves covering both of his hands with a neatly groomed hair, this on turn turned him identical to a butler of a high noble with his outfit, especially when his clothes also partnered with his black hair and calm temperament

"By the way... . . How on your front? Did the Beastman actually serves as an opponent?" Asks Belial

"Well I did fought against their hero in one of the battles... . . And I can say that the hero is very profound in hand to hand combat as if he's already accustomed to it and was engraved in his bone... . . But as you can see, I haven't found the human that you were interested in" answered Hepta

"Well same here... . . Apparently I have only found the other human as of you know, he's the human's hero so his reputation was spread throughout the continent far and wide... . . As for the other... . . It seemed as if he suddenly went out like an extinguished fire, I actually can't even find him myself"

Hearing that Hepta elegantly places her harbinger on her shoulders as she led Belial on the tent and dismissed the other Demon's

"What are you saying? You mean it's like he just vanished?" Asks Hepta

"Something along the line"

"Wow I didn't know humans can vanish suddenly" exclaimed Hepta

"Indeed"

As they wondered about the humans situation, Belial immediately sits on the chair  crossed legs as he familiarize himself around the place

"The human's started moving for a while, even though I started skirmishes here and there, their own hero however was like someone else entirely as he quickly fixes any problem I make... . . Looks like the human hero will be a difficult opponent, consequently they are starting to mobilize their army and March down towards this land with their forces" said Belial as he stated his findings after infiltrating the human continent

"Human's are acting up? Looks like their hero is starting to get competent" exclaimed Hepta as she sits opposite of Belial in a tomboyish manner

"Indeed... . ."

"Well your lucky, the Beastman hero who was called Alduin for some reason was actually a horndog... . . Can you imagine? He actually uses his charm skills on me!!! If he has charm skills, then that can only mean that... . . " Pointed out Hepta

"Yes... . . He must have used his ability to further please himself of his own desire just like his predecessors that has charm ability, apparently people that has charm skills across time are actually all horndogs... . .  No matter what species as long that they're satisfied, then they'll make use of their charm skills to force the other party to service him" continued Belial

"Such disgusting ability" commented Hepta

After that silence permeated the room when suddenly Belial asked Hepta

"Hepta! I have a question"

"What is it?"

"Do you however wonder how that Asuto person ever got close to the Demon king?" Asked Belial

"What do you mean?... . . You mean that strange person that always stays beside the demon king? Why what about him?" Asks Hepta

"I don't know... . . It's just my speculation as the person who is the right hand of the Demon king, that person however is strange... . . The moment he appeared, the Demon king seemed to also have changed" speculated Belial

After hearing his speculations, Hepta immediately shrugged her shoulders and said

"Belial! You may be the king's right hand but you should know that he may be his left hand and as quite important as you... . . Your not the only one that is a powerhouse here... . . For your information I'm also a powerhouse"

Hearing that Belial slowly nodded in agreement and dismissed his strange idea when suddenly a voice spoke out outside the tent

"Ghoul Queen Hepta! It is I the captain of the infiltration troops... . . I'm here to report my findings"

After saying that the captain entered the tent and was quite surprised to see Belial sitting on a chair, followingly her other two subordinates also followed and immediately uncovered themselves, quickly revealing that they were demonic women

Surprisingly Hepta saw Belial arching his brows at this line up of women and started to laugh at him

"What's wrong? Don't tell me you have taken fond of these line up women infront of you? Nevertheless tell me... . .whom have you fancied?" Teased Hepta

Contrast to Hepta's speculation however, Belial himself was quite sensitive to Mana flunctuations too that he's almost equivalent to the Demon king, what caught his attention however is that why was there a mixed foreign Mana on the lined up woman

Trusting his instincts however, he immediately stood up and walked calmly at the talking Demon woman captain and instantly choked her while lifting her off the ground

Hepta however was surprised of the development of the situation, she didn't expect that Belial actually stood up and approached a woman, but what surprised her the most was that Belial actually choked the Demon woman and pinned down the other two with his aura

"Look what we have here! Why does the likes of a Demon has the Mana of a beast lingering on her body? Same goes to the other two... . ." Bellowed Belial

Surprised by that Information Hepta quickly grabbed her harbinger and went to battle stance

But calmly and surprising, the next words of the Demon woman greatly alerted them

"Long live Alduin-sama!"

With a click as if all Mana converged into her stomach, the whole tent however exploded to its maximum degree followed by the sudden destruction of the platform due to the intense shockwave

Soon the whole demon encampment was in a uproar as the whole camp erupted in a explosion, ground cracking, littered, exploded, sunk, and most off all destruction

Such scene was like the destructive earthquakes from end of the world movies where the ground and plates itself rises and sunk towards the magma down below killing multiple people

One word can only describe such happenings in the camp and that is catastrophe

As if the series of shockwaves wasn't enough, the last bit of attempt was actually a sudden Mana explosion that greatly destroyed everything in its path rending multiple lives to their death's

After that tragedy Hepta however managed to protect herself by going Purgatory Form which enhances her defenses

When she started to look around, she was instead met with a tragic aftermath as everything in her view was purely destruction

Only few Demon's were left alive and gasping for breath, she can't even find atleast one commander and Captain that was still alive, all she could see was bits off normal demons, orcs, Giants, ghouls, goblins, and other species belonging to the Demon army was still alive and struggling to survive

"Damn it!" Exclaimed Hepta

She didn't expect however was that a bomb has been planted inside the Demon woman which resulted to this kind of explosion and destruction of her army, what surprised her was that the woman was actually charmed by the Beastman hero after conducting the operation three days ago

When she glanced at Belial who was the closest towards the source, she soon found out that the person himself was battered up with his clothes, ripped by a little and his own disheveled hair

Apparently Belial managed to protect himself by quickly enveloping himself with black flames which only resulted in him receiving few damage from the explosion

Apparently when Hepta thought that he was somewhat calm, the person himself was actually feeling the opposite

"Looks like the hero of the Beastman is quite dangerous too" he said calmly

Surprisingly Belial floated up with a flap on his wings and hovered quite far off the ground and gazed at the horizon

"Pardon me Hepta... . . But I need to vent out a little" stated Belial

After hearing that Hepta quickly realized that Belial was going to retaliate

With that in mind Belial immediately made his move

"Eye of the devil!!!"

Using this spell, Mana quickly gathered towards his left eye and peeked through the distance searching for the hero

****************

Far from the Grand kingdom and at the outpost heading towards the encampment of the Human Queen empress, Alduin was actually having a conversation with Xyrus at the moment

"Looks like we need to talk to the queen about this matter, apparently we really do need the Human's help" said Alduin

"Is that so? Well if we meet her please control your lust for woman, I did hear that she is quite attractive on her own category" reminded Xyrus

"Attractive? Well looks like I'm starting to get interested to this empress... . . Do you think I can charm her?" Asks Alduin

In reply to this Xyrus just immediately sigh while Alduin continued to laugh, when suddenly the laugh instantly stopped and the feeling of being watched crept up on him

"Someone's watching us!" Alerted Alduin quickly reminding Xyrus and the soldiers to ready their weapons

At this the whole Outpost was alerted

****************

Back towards the destroyed Demon encampment Belial crept up into a smile

"Found you" he muttered

Following that a series of magic circle appeared in the sky above them which consisted of dozens of magic circle overlapping one huge magic circle above which is as big as the largest Demon capital

Due to that the Mana flunctuations around the world started to quiver as a strong current formed an intangible object infront of the Archdemon

This sudden Mana influx however greatly distressed every being around the world that is sensitive to Mana, this includes ranks of mages to hero's

Consequently the human hero also felt this as sweat trickled down his face, also this in turn caught the attention of the keeper of the Akashic Records, naturally Anna too who was a sorceress a rank way above mages also felt this change

This change however greatly alarmed her as she started to shake in fear, which resulted to Kaido starting to notice her reaction

***************

Feeling the sense of dread as the whole world was seemingly crying out in pain, Alduin quickly commanded all mages to form a formation that quickly snapped them out of their fear

Xyrus too was quite afraid of this sudden accumulation of Mana which can only be described in one word

"World Class Magic"

Starting from Alduin, the other mages followed suite including Xyrus as they formed a protective barrier

"Wall of titanium!!!"

"Magic barrier!!!"

"Luminosity arc!!!"

"Elemental shield!!!"

"Engarde!!!"

"Heavy fortress!!!"

....

.....

Entrusting their fate to this shields they begun to drain all their Mana as they focused all their attention towards defenses

****************

However Belial didn't heed to this as a huge spear of darkness formed infront of him after accumulating a large amount of Mana from the world

"World Class Magic! Darkum Prima!!!"

Without a command Belial threw the spear of darkness with all his strength and directed it towards the target location

Like a heavens cannon the spear streak across the sky which was enough for it to actually split the clouds in half with such great speed and force

Apparently the distance was quite far and In order to reach it's target location in time Belial threw the spear so hard that it made his arms broke in half and the spear to travel in Mach 20 speed breaking the sound barrier

*************

As if like a tiny nuclear when the spear collided against the layered shields of the mages and Alduin's wall

A huge explosion swept up the ground that engulfed the whole world into darkness for a certain few minutes that lasted for about ten minutes

Everything that was in the place got destroyed as all life was seeped out from them, bringing the whole world into darkness

The ground shook, crust lifted, magma erupting, sky dimmed into darkness, land destructed at the distance of 50 kilometers, bringing all life inside the distance to death

After the explosion nearly almost half of the army in the outposts survived leaving Alduin and few of the mages together with Xyrus to be left breathing

Out of 1,000 people in the outpost only 300 survived which mostly 250 of them were mages while for the non-mages were mostly killed in the destruction

This in turn painted the whole world including the history in darkness which will be recorded in the Akashic records
