King of succubus

"Sigh, the master was right; an intelligent donkey will always remain a donkey." Even if Nicco did not reveal her presence this time, her voice still resonated in the area after the premature departure of the second general and his troops.

Barely traveled three more kilometers, one of the artificial forest traps suddenly started!

[Gravitational field!]

-VrrRuiiiii!!!!

The second general and his squad, who always avoid descending into the forest, expected all kinds of attacks, such as magic arrows targeting them from above or other similar offensive attacks, except for Alvine\'s traps to force them to land in the forest that is infested with traps!

"!!"

Despite his rage, the second general instantly noticed the gravitational field that pulled them down!

"Ta-Take altitude!" He shoots, blowing up his aura around him to resist the force of attraction!

But the next moment, another trap is activated!

-Woosh!! Woosh!! Woosh!! Woosh!!

And this time, unlike gravitational fields, it was indeed the offensive traps they instead expected!

Hundreds of barely visible wind blades flew towards them in the sky!

Usually, they will have no trouble avoiding such flashy attacks. Still, because of the gravitational force that gradually became ferocious as the nano-seconds ran in seconds, a few lost their limbs. At the same time, some strongest managed to get by with a few scratches after narrowly avoiding wind blades.

But if only that were all,

But unfortunately,

[Gravitational field! X2]

[Gravitational field! X3]

[Gravitational field! X4]

[Gravitational field! X5!!]

Traps after traps, gravitational fields have multiplied, making it impossible for them to flee!

And the next moment, when they could hardly move their fingers with their nerves and muscles tense, their bones cracking at the edge of their bodies, another round of offensive attack was triggered!

[Wind arrows!!]

Even if the attack was not more potent than the previous one, the situation differed from last time!

The low-rank divine mages had already begun by giving up, imagining that landing on the ground was better than waiting to be pierced by arrows of the winds.

But the next moment, the others abandoned this idea, seeing those who wanted to land suffered a fate worse than the others!

The blades of the winds divided their bodies in two, and they were more ferocious than those who had targeted them instead!

Seeing this scene of unprecedented cruelty, the second general felt an electrifying Frisian go all over his body.

But he remained inflexible and growled once again.

"Activate your magic shields!"

-Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!...

After the order of the second general, there were more additional victims after the activation of their shields.

"Maintain your magic shields until the arrays exhaust all their energies!" He ordered in a slightly calm tone, thinking that he had found a parade to the attacks of their enemies.

But he had ignored a crucial detail, the attacks they had just undergone were not the result of a magical array but Alvine\'s affinity pearls!

Unlike magical arrays that depend on the energy of the array master to feed, the pearls of affinity were, however, independent!

Once activated, they will never stop until they have exhausted the energy that Alvine or his clone had injected at the beginning of their creations.

Thus, from the beginning, just by seeing the short time of activity of these spells, anyone could guess that these pearls remain the weakest pearls ever created so far.

Their only purpose was to deceive the enemy.

And the person who operated these traps was not Alvine\'s clone, but Fyora, who was hidden in the wild woods with a golden sphere with fifty little reds in it!

"Fufu~, the lord is definitely real of amazing. His magic is unique to itself; no one will be able to dream of imitating his spells!" She murmured, unconsciously showing off her rows of white teeth in her smile.

Following this, the sphere lights up slightly, and a small ethereal blue dot disappears, followed by another that is a deep violet.

Simultaneously, the second general and his elite troops, still resisting gravitational fields in their shields, noticed a slight ethereal blue glow shoot towards them without being affected by monstrous gravity.

"!" With his piercing eyes and his perception at the top, the second general naturally understood the threat that this tiny seed was in!

"Strengthen your shields! Use all the energy you need for--!!

His words remained stuck in his throat following the blinding light emitted by the little pearl the size of a seed!

The surrounding air gathered around the small pearl because of the monstrous pressure emanating from its simple presence!

"Fuck--

-Ka-BOOMM!!!

A megaton explosion wiped all the trees under them, simultaneously killing thousands of mages by reducing them to dust. By forgetting to count the wounded, no flashy magic shield could resist the explosive power of the space pearl, which was made by Alvine\'s clone.

By underestimating the other light traps, this attack dealt them more damage than they expected.

-VrrRuiiiii!!!!

At the same time, the gravitational fields they thought were stopped had become only more ferocious because of the disruption of space flows that are now chaotic!

But the next moment, another violet pearl rose to them like the previous space pearl!

"?!! Go down to the ground and activate the protective formation N•10!" The second general ordered as soon as he saw the pearl towards them.

Just by seeing the slight inner rumbling and the lightning crackling around this seed, he could guess that the pearl was not weaker than the last pearl.

"Fufu, too late for you, little shits!" Fyora giggled these words, instantly operating the pearl that had barely made half the way!

-Shahhhhhhh!!!!

Thus, the thunder pearl began its bloodbath!

--

-Arghhh!!

"Shit! So it was a trap! Listen to me, don\'t panic, and do your best to maintain the military formation! Maintain your positions at all costs, and we adapt the [Formation N•09, Ice giant\'s indestructible body!]."

On the other side of the north of the forest, the squad of the first divine general was not in a better position either because of the horrible traps that Alvine had left in the hand of his three generals.

Unlike Fyora, who alone took care of activating the pearls of the Alvine clone in the South, Myulan and Barade took care of operating the traps of the North to take care of the first general and his troops.

Each of the two had a sphere similar to that of Fyora in their right hand and harmonized for those activated.

But even though there were two of them to take care of the first general and his troops, they did not make more victims on their side; compared to Fyora.

Not that they were incompetent, but it was that the first general was more suspicious and not reckless from the beginning and had ordered his subordinates to focus on defense rather than retreat, commanding them to land in the forest with magical shields that they had cast together to merge them and make them stronger in the face of Alvine\'s traps.

Although they lost hundreds of men, they held on and activated defensive shields one after the destruction of the other.

Following the orders of their general, the troops of the first general injected their divine energies into their weapons, sinking them to the ground, instantly creating a one-meter-thick golden dome that enveloped them all!

"Don\'t let go yourselves! We are on the hunting ground of our enemies; they surely have more powerful offensive arrays than the previous ones!" He added with scarlet eyes that had a mark of rage and an almost unlimited thirst for blood.

"Arghh shit! This guy is as resistant as a cockroach! On this train, I\'m really going to lose my bet against General Fyora!" Three kilometers from them, Barade and Myulan stood next to each other with two spheres that had only a dozen lights in them.

"Sigh, even in this kind of situation, you have such carefree thoughts. I don\'t know if I should admire your calm or call you an idiot for thinking about winning against General Fyora. What did you expect by betting against the one nicknamed the Lord\'s sister? It is not only because of the color of her hair and eyes that resemble the Lord\'s, but it is because of her devilish strategies and skills that she inherited this nickname from her admirers." Myulan retorted by looking at her college with complacent eyes.

"Hehe, big target, that\'s my goal. Now that I think calmly, talking about great goals, I heard interesting information before the beginning of our mission. But it\'s not free since it\'s information that comes directly from one of the Lord\'s direct subordinates, Lady Nicco!" He said, briefly looking at Myulan\'s shocked expression.

"Of course, it would cost you ten divine spiritual stones, payable as soon as we return!" He added.

"Urgh! ...F-Five divine stones, and we have a deal. Even as a squad general, my pay is not as astronomical as that."

"Huh? Who are you trying to deceive, my dear? I am also a general, and we receive a thousand divine stones per month; in addition to our income and other cultivation resources. Are you so stingy that you want to refuse to exchange 10DS for such information?! I assure you that you will not regret it since it concerns a personal reward from the Lord after this battle!"

Like a merchant trying to lure his customers, Barade did not give up seeing Myulan\'s indecision.

"!!... I\'m buying!"

"Kekek, I knew you couldn\'t disappoint me, dear delta general!"

Despite their nonchalant discussions, the two continued to operate the traps as effectively as before. But after noticing the shield of the first general and his troops, they decided to wait for a little to weaken them further since maintaining such a shield also required a quantity of astronomical divine energy.

​ "Well, will you tell me what kind of information it was? Unless you don\'t want me to withdraw what--

"Not so fast. Ahem, this is information I had inadvertently heard during a conversation between Lady Nicco and Lady Ashia; according to them, the lord had come to explore this area only to recover the artifact that belonged to an ancient divine warrior."

"Pft, everyone already knew this information since the cause of our presence in this bloody forest!" Mylan replied with a blank expression.

"I know, I know, but what you don\'t know is that the lord does not intend to keep the artifact in question but intends to give it as a reward to the general who will show more accomplishment!"

"... Um, It is obvious the lord has all kinds of treasure. And since this artifact will serve a general more than him, this decision was predictable on his part. But what I did not expect is for him to offer such an artifact to one of us who are only three-star generals, unlike the three-to five-star generals who are on the divine planet!" Myulan complimented with incredulous eyes.

"Isn\'t it?! I had the same conclusion. Sigh, it is real to what is said about him; he really rewards the efforts of their subordinates to their right values; his impartiality will never cease to amaze me." Barade added while nodding his head.

"Hmm, it\'s information that was worth it, indeed. But unfortunately, I already know who will have this reward. We will have no chance against this monster(Fyora)."

"Hey, why do you say that when you haven\'t even listened to the information I wanted to reveal yet? What I just said is nothing more than a bonus for you."

"Huh?"

"Hehe, that\'s where it will become interesting. After the reward, the Lord will personally grant a wish to the one who receives the artifact. As long as it is not a request that goes against his principles or a request to rise in rank, he will grant any other wish!" He replied with sparkling eyes.

"?!!"
