Remuel didn't care about much about other countries, so he blitzed through and finished all the enemies in Bazylopia before rushing into Luventrion. His party remained in Bazylopia to get rid of any stranglers that scattered throughout the country, thus he was pretty relieved as he went towards Luventrion.
Bethany was stationed near the king as the country leader gave instructions to the commanders on how to fight against the knights that came down from the skies. This country was the only country fortunate enough within the alliance to have a coast that isn't invaded by devils. Thus Remuel would be taking the lead to fight the number of knights that have completely recovered. "Remuel! You've arrived!" Bethany rushed forward to welcome Remuel who appeared in the middle of the throne room with an exhausted expression. "Haaah... I'll take the full brunt of the attack. Have your armies in defensive formation and do not allow any stranglers to get into the city. Do you understand?" Remuel quickly let out instructions towards the king. The king didn't hesitate to nod and accept his idea. "Good, get going already, I can't hold everything there for far too long. There will be those who pass through me, and I can't shake the feeling that I'm going to end up fighting something dangerous."
With Remuel's orders coming in, he immediately went out with Bethany to intercept the forces of the council. At first, he was quite hesitant to bring her around. But seeing as she was researching diligently with Victorina who is actually clearing out Bazylopia as they move, he decided that it should be fine. He focused his gaze towards the gigantic distortion in the sky that started to form into a gigantic hole. "I have a feeling I've seen this in a book before." Remuel made a small retort as he prepared to attack the enemies that go towards him. But before he prepared his attack, he sent a message to Bethany through telepathy. "If you start to see an different armor flying, retreat in that instant. That means they had sent their big members on us trying to eliminate chances of being intercepted." Bethany hummed in response as if agreeing in Remuel's commands. She then began her attack by unleashing a laser of light towards the distorted discs that started to descent. Only a few of them were damaged to the point of knocking the enemies down. Seeing as it was effective against the knights as they started to fall down and take damage on their drop. "So they can't make too many that could fly? Or maybe they can only issue simple commands?" Bethany let out small theories into her mind as she continued to fire lasers.
"She's going all-out alright. Then how bout I make sure the defending group doesn't get overwhelmed." Remuel brought out [Amalgam of Destiny] behind him as he manifested it as a book on the size of a human. "[Amalgam of Mythology]!" With a loud shout, Remuel had fully clad himself in flames. "[Amalgam of Bible]!" Instead of demonic wings growing out, it looked more like phoenix wings. However, he wasn't done yet. "[Deal]!" Blood scattered throughout the ground which made Remuel activate [Crimson World]. However, he wasn't bothered about the blood loss as he brought out a small vial potion to drink from. And as he ingested the contents of the vial, the flames engulfing him blew stronger than ever. What he drank was his own potion that he had created [Phoenix Tears]. Just like the myth, it is capable of rejuvenating everything in a person completely, giving him or her a complete recovery in an instant. Just as he finished his preparation, the knights had began to close their position towards him as if just attempting to trample a single person on their way, but he was much more unfazed than ever. "Trample them, [Fog of Conquest]!" He brought out the scythe and pointed it towards the army of knights coming to trample him.
A white fog spread forward as the ground started to burn in white flames. Remuel is more of an assassin styled fighter rather than a combatant or an eradicator. He's best at eliminating parties of enemies as he shrouds them into confusion while he rarely ever gets hit. However, the knights that were sent down by the council are more about puppets rather than actual humans. So they won't easily be fazed by the confusion of the low visibility and sudden attacks as they will still react to it. However, inside [Fog of Conquest], Remuel set up a nasty trap as he engulfed the entire ground on fire. And just as the more enemies came into the range of his fog where he scattered the fire. He activated electric magic to cause a massive explosion within his radius. Remuel was effectively recovering more than expending, thus he had leeway to use any tactic he likes without care of how nasty it could be. "R-Remuel?!" Bethany was surprised by the sudden explosion within the fog below her. She had to fly higher to avoid getting included in the explosion as she understood what Remuel might've done. "This reckless idiot..." She looked around and saw Remuel completely unscathed as he was engulfed in his own fire. She was slightly relieved but that feeling of relief slowly turned into a short moment of hesitance. "Ah! Remuel!" Before Bethany's voice could reach Remuel, she was surrounded in running water. She thought about blasting through it but she saw that objects that passed through the running water completely get disintegrated. "This is dangerous... But what do I..." Just as she started to think of a solution, the water had completely dispersed. What replaced her sight was an extremely injured Remuel that was soaked in water. "R-Remuel!" Bethany quickly caught Remuel who was starting to fall down and hugged him. "Go retreat for now... I'll handle this fucker here." Remuel's words sounded angry, as he noticed that Bethany was target before him. "Will you be..." Remuel kissed her forehead, interrupting her question completely as he smiled afterward. "I'll never lose against something that isn't an archon." Bethany accepted his words and escaped through a portal made by Remuel.
"Now wasn't that quite rude of you runt? Targeting my woman in front of me is a stupid idea unless you have a deathwish." A voice come out from the skies to where Remuel casted his gaze upon. Simple battle clothes that looked somewhat navy blue in color. Something that specializes in water magic and could potentially harm an archon such as him. There was only one type of person that could reach that level. "I think it's funny if you say that while looking severely injured, so say it again, god in a mortal's body." Remuel could only click his tongue in response as he started to recover from the effect of [Phoenix Tears]. The flames then engulfed once more as he activated his full extend. "I demand a name council member, judging by your power you could have a familiar name." The council member grinned a little as he placed his hands behind him. "Very well, I am Oceanus, and I am here to offer you your own death, God of Equivalence." [Tsk] Remuel clicked his tongue again as he understood that his identity is already blown. But that frustration turned into a smile as he readied his scythe that was slightly damaged after freeing Bethany from a deathtrap. "Then, let's dance motherfucker."
