After receiving a notification about Darius' soul getting merged with Logan's, Mel ignored it and focus on the important matters in front of her as there was no way for her to resolve something away from her sight and control.
"What do you think, your grace?"
"I think it's trash, no offense Finn"
"Really? You don't see any artistic value in it?"
"Nope. And I am a hundred percent sure about it"
Seeing the disgusted expression my slaves had, Finn went out of my bedchamber along with the two week, rotting, maggot infesting, lump of corpses, kneaded by hand that was already growing some mushroom.
And since he was the pope, no soldier questioned or stopped him when he went here, with that thing that smelled like a smoothie of rotten eggs, the nastiest sewer water, and a bit of dried cheeese.
"Claude, if you may"
"On it your grace"
Thanks to Claude using his power, the room smelled like a fresh spring breeze.
Days went by as everyone, except for my slaves, were busy with their work that the day of surprise has come.
...
The first day of June.
[The ancient kingdom of Dal Boen has risen approximately ten kilometers away from the western coast of Lagnos]
".....?!"
[The cursed beings of the kingdom of Dal Boen seeks life and freedom and will now being their conquest for it by attacking the nearest kingdom]
"Shit!"
[The creatures who went extinct twelve million years ago, the chimeras, have resolved themselves to kill and eat everything in their path]
In haste, Mel called for an emergency meeting and ordered a state of national emergency.
With this, Mel along with Elmenz hurriedly went westward to protect and create a wall of protection to create a fortress against the enemies that popped up.
But more than five towns were already brought to ruin by the beings of the Dal Boen.
"Elmenz"
"Yes, your grace!"
The king of Lagnos knelt down.
"From now on, focus on gureilla warfare. At all cost, do not let anyone get consumed by those monsters"
"Understood!"
Elmenz quickly informed the other commanders about what I ordered him to, putting defense as the highest priority.
"Are you ready, you all?"
"Of course, your grace!!!"
My slaves and Alice said simultaneously.
"Let's kill them and show them that they are unwanted guests from my land!!!"
Along with Mel, the other five jumped from the improvised wall and charged at the chimeras, each looked different and used different capabilities.
With skillful control of mana, both Claude and Leonard covered Alice who was decimating the chimeras into pieces with her scythe and Mel who was effortlessly slicing them with her saber made from acid.
"What am I doing here again?"
"You're here since you might get teleported later to the battlefield. It would be hard to protect you since you are currently defenseless, senior"
Ralias answered as he protected Leonard and Claude from chimeras that sneaked up on them with the demi-god of destiny riding his neck.
"I'm just glad it's just us here or someone would have thought that we're father and son"
"I know how that feels, senior"
With Elmenz's skill and thanks to the training that the slime soldiers went through with Marie Ito as their instructor, they all managed to maintain formation.
While some got injured due to chimeras being covered with mana and that slimes are weak against it, not a single slime died at day one.
"Claude"
"Yes, your grace?"
"Go back to the main camp and tell Elmenz to maintain the formation. We will be charging through and clear the entire kingdom this week"
"Understood your, grace!"
"Also, just wait to get teleported and prepare food for them to eat"
"As you wish"
Claude who is the fastest among us then went back to the main camp.
"Your grace, if I may ask, why were you fighting in the front? You could have just ordered someone else to do it. Not to mention, you even left behind Zachary and the other brat who would be good in a situation like this"
"There are weird movements in the Kingdom of Magic so someone has to stay behind. Amon, Zachary, Fell, and Loraine are needed to stay behind and command the remaining forces there if ever something were to happen. If the worst thing happens, Somchai and Marie Ito will also step up"
The fire flickered.
"That's why. You get it now you twerp"
"....."
No longer annoyed about being called names, the demi-god of destiny pondered about his past from Mel's words.
'There's no way I can tell him that it was because of the increase in level!'
Hahahaha!!!
'There are so many of them and high leveled too. Why should I pass the chance of leveling up safely and quickly!!!'
[The Apostle
"Wow..."
[The bet between the God of Dragons and the Goddess of all Bitches has ended with the Goddess of all Bitches as the winner]
"That's great"
[You now own the entirety of the destroyed Dragon Kingdom]
"That's not good"
[The Apostle
"...Definitely not good"
[A year at least and three at most]
Since Darius is with him, the two should be able to come back here. But how come I feel uneasy about this.
[The God of Dragon who is now your slave is asking for help]
[The God of Dragon says "Send someone to my kingdom or your and my subjects will all die, woman!!!]
...
In the Kingdom of Dragons where the legendary battle between the most powerful vampire and the strongest dragon king happened, the kingdom that seemed out of this world became ruins.
Filled with erratic mana from the death of more than a hundred dragons, the entire place was covered with natural disasters generated by the mana.
Hailstorms. Typhoon. Waterspouts.
As the God of Magic do not know why something like an extreme mana fluctuation was happening near them, he ordered two magic tower masters to be departed and inspect it as it could endanger his subjects.
And in that very ruined kingdom.
"AHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!"
A dragon who became a madman painted the land with his brethern's blood.
"Aah~ I feel so powerful!"
[Due to the effects of the skill
"Ack... princess... please do not stay away from this vampire..."
"Brother.... sniff...."
The draconian warrior champion that Darius did not kill due to the remaining sense of loyalty he had for the royal family of dragons managed to hide with the princess as he dragged Payne's unconcious body as it was the only thing protecting them from Darius.
Darius who already lost his sense of rationality did not attack Payne as his body felt instinctive fear from the training he went through which brought miracle to the two dragons that were still alive as they cling to the little hope they have left.
