161 Scripted Event Athetosea Great War 5/?

-----

The Hero of Raging Winds glanced at the battlefield as he received another system notification, this time informing him about the death of the Elemental Knights Commander and Leader, Reynold. This greatly shocked the Hero, who desperately vented his frustration and anger in the Champion of Psychic Eyes through the Skill [Wind's Talk].

"Hey! Nanako! W-What is going on?! How could Reynold die?!"

"Tch! No one but a few people would have the strength to kill such a man! We have fallen right into Lust's trap!"

"Lust…?! Do you mean…"

"Yes! The Realm Menace of Lust! I knew it! That monster has been pulling the strings behind the scenes! She has manipulated Alice, converting her into a Dhampir, that woman has been currently meeting with so many Nobles recently… She probably…"

"Nanako… Are you sure…? It can't be…"

"I fear that it is true, Alice has been hypnotizing all those Nobles, and with Lust's commands, she has orchestrated a war like this on purpose!"

"S-Shit! We have fallen right into its claws! However, most of this is your fault! Your incompetence has been outstanding these last days, Nanako! I knew that we shouldn't have let the rank of Champions or Knights to you damned Demi-Humans!"

"H-Hammond…!"

"D-Don't call me by my name! Your rashness and stupidity made that monster so enraged if you just had kept your cool instead of sending all those soldiers to the Grand Forest! You Demi-Humans cannot keep your cool at all, you are wild and savage animals!"

"I-I… I'm sorry!"

"Its too late to be sorry, you stupid whore! Now I will have to do everything myself!"

"Tch… (Now what do I do… I need to… I need to help the others! I cannot just let everyone die, or let Hammond handle the situation!)"

As the Hero of Raging Winds stopped talking with Nanako Maki, he ordered the Champion of Earth-Shattering Arms to annihilate Truhan, who he suspected was one of the commanders in charge of the troops of Demi-Humans. However, he yet had to confirm such thing, even more, as he needed to look for the exact location of the Sin of Lust, if she was ever here, to begin with.

Just ordering the entire army to target a certain group was even harder, as Hammond noticed that his troops began to act rashly and savagely, which highly disgusted him.

"W-Why are the soldiers acting like this? It seems to be some kind of drug! But how… Wait, this smell… S-Shit!"

By his side, came the Champion of Freezing Winters, Sapphira Diamantine, with a worried expression.

"My lord! Things are getting worse! The Soldiers have lost their reason and are wildly attacking their comrades!"

"Tch! Sapphira, give the order, call the summoners and commanders! If possible, tell the nobles to send the Kingdom's entire troops! We have fallen right into the claws of a demon! They are purposely targeting the [Epic] users first, they know that if we lose them all, our power will go in a downfall!"

"Ah! Yes, my Lord!"

"And as for me, I need to assist the [Epic] users as fast as possible! The Gemstone Knight, that stupid little girl, she should be close by, I need to pick her up before it's too late!"

"My Lord, please take care!"

"I am the Hero of Raging Winds! You should worry about your safety and not mine! Now go!"

"Y-Yes!"

As Sapphira used a powerful skill to fly through the air into the direction where the Nobles were spectating the war, Hammond filled himself with emerald winds and flew at an incredible speed towards The Elemental Knight of Gemstone whereabouts.

As I advanced through the chaotic battlefield, I began to intensify the spreading of my fragrance, making the knights at our side become even more feral and savage. The once-respected adventurers became like a destructive beast as they jumped and pounced over the knights. My fragrance partially affected the opposing side.

"W-Why are these people so savage?! They are like wild beasts!"

��Gyaaaaaahh!!! Don't bite me! Get off me! W-Why are you taking your penis out?!"

"E-Even the mages are acting like this?! Are they being affected by some kind of drug?!"

"How could the opposing side do something so horrendous to their soldiers!"

"Don't touch me! Let me go! Gyaah!"

In the other side of the battlefield, I saw Truhan and Celica team massacring hordes of humans, even the ones in their side were occasionally killed, but because of the chaotic scene, no one cared. A massive river of blood began to spread across the battlefield, and the Blood team used it to their heart's content, reinforcing their strength and manipulating the blood to create flying weapons to kill the humans in even easier ways.

I also noticed Palami, Asure, and Raito, who were working alongside Truhan's team, they were certainly enjoying the massacre, their strength has increased a lot since they were enslaved, and killing all these humans give them an inexplicable joy. Their sadistic sides finally surfaced as they were finally having a "revenge" against humans, even if these people weren't the ones in specific who made them suffer. Even the calm and composed Palami enjoyed killing humans, as she released hundreds of light strokes everywhere, easily penetrating these humans' armors and magic barriers.

The Slave Team was doing their job at distracting the Elemental Knight of Fire, who with his whole [Legendary Team] was certainly strong, and had the power to fend the entire team off. His blade released incredibly hot flames that melted even Ganjo's rock scales into lava, so he had to instead, attack at a safe distance by altering the floor with his Earth Manipulation.

Meanwhile, Jorogumo, Erathe and the whole Arachne Warrior Team alongside the soldiers fought the Fire Knight [Legendary Team], even if these people were secondary characters in the story of this Knight, they were incredibly strong, perhaps because they were receiving a strange surge of power by fighting alongside their Leader.

Kaguya and the Dark Squirrel team remained in the backlines, disrupting the surrounding soldiers who tried to intervene with the fight with their strong Dark, Shadow, and Fire magic. Kaguya conjured thousands of Sacred Spirit Flames in the forms of different animals and monsters, attacking and burning alive anyone who dared fight her. Even though she was frail by herself, she was able to calmly sit down in the middle of the battlefield while assessing the situation.

Each time the Elemental Knight of Fire was heavily injured, one of the members of his [Legendary Team], the Half-Salamander Girl, would cast a special healing spell that showed itself as a White Fire, that would quickly regenerate his whole body and even reinforce it. This girl was being heavily protected by the other members of the team alongside hundreds of soldiers, my servants already noticed that she was the culprit behind the Fire Knight almost endless power and health, but she was just too hard to catch yet.

Suddenly, a new help came as the Slime Family appeared, the six Slime girls of different colors and appearances suddenly showed up as a giant rainbow-colored slime, resembling Guubo, they have recently developed the ability to fuse and combine into this entity, with a special skill named [Union]. Their combined version held immense power and was able to use any magic they knew and even combine it, creating devastating attacks.

The rainbow slime suddenly transformed into a humanoid form, resembling a beautiful and tall woman, with incredible and sturdy muscles, rainbow hair and golden eyes, she had three small white horns on her forehead and a beautiful blue dress. She had a slight resemblance to Rimuru.

In this humanoid form, they used an [Armor Skill] and covered themselves into a giant black armor, resembling that of Aloysius, the armored slime girl. This armor was greatly enhanced by the six slimes powers and formed incredible durability and sturdiness.

Using their new strength and power, the combination of the six slimes rushed through the battlefield and confronted the Elemental Knight of Fire head-on, leaving my servants with some time to rest while looking for ways to kill the Half-Salamander Healer Girl.

As all of this happened, I glanced where Truhan \u0026 Celica's team was, and noticed that the lovely pair was fighting a Champion, the Champion of Earth-Shattering Arms in specific. It seems that this old man already noticed their overwhelming strength and was frustrated over the heavy losses, final stepping in the battlefield to do something about it.

This man, named Gustav Gifford, was originally a renowned mercenary leader, who was noticed by a Noble family and promoted to Knight General, after countless battles, he awakened his [Epic] skill and instantly became a Champion, receiving the [Legendary] Relic [Earth's Anguish], a massive pair of claws that covered his entire arms, they had three giant claws made of a [Divine Material] and had the capabilities to slash and tear anything. Coupled with his years of experience in battles and his immense inhuman strength, he was recognized as one of the strongest Champions.

And that's all I know about the old man. He held immense strength and was able to fight the titan that is Truhan on equal terms, however, Celica was constantly disrupting him and helping out Truhan. The pair didn't have any shame in helping each other as this was a war and not a chivalrous battle of one against one.

Gustav rushed through the battlefield and using his immense arms, clashed over Truhan's Axe, creating a thunderous shock wave. Meanwhile, Celica jumped over him while using her [Stealth] coatings and shadow cloaks, slicing the man's back with her [Legendary] Daggers.

It seems that he doesn't have many detection abilities, at least not advanced enough to detect Celica, he could only react when he was already slashed. At this, he would try to demolish Celica's head with a single punch, but would usually fall as Truhan would stop him from doing so, smashing the man into oblivion with his overwhelming strength.

Although Gustav managed to keep on with Truhan, Celica's disruptions were a variable that he didn't put into consideration and were being slowly drained off his energy.

Although my servants were having a hard time, I was confident in the strength. All these days and months of training won't be for anything. All of them have grown into reliable warriors, and I shall await the time when they bring me the corpses of the Knights and Champions.

Now that the Earth Knight was killed by me and the Holy Knight was killed by Evan, I directed my attention to the Gemstone Knight, who was currently protecting herself from my army inside a dome made of colorful gemstones.

Saeko Hoseki was currently being surrounded by my troops combined with the berserk humans. She didn't have the strength to fight them all by herself and lacked a [Legendary Team]. Her Gemstone Magic seems to be specialized in defense and support. She was currently protecting herself while slowly creating hundreds of Gemstone Golems to fight off my troops.

While being coated in my Illusion Magic and the series of [Stealth] skills, I watched the scene. My troops were currently destroying the Gemstone Golems, which were quite frail compared to Stone golems, however, they possessed lighter bodies and could jump around and have more speed. These golems had a humanoid figure, similar to a doll or mannequin, women would have a long dress made of gemstones and wield lances, while men had a rough gemstone armor and wielded axes.

However, even with their fast movements and occasional magic, they weren't able to stop my highly trained soldiers and the wild and berserk humans. My units protected themselves with their Illusion Fabric equipment, camouflaging while doing lethal attacks in their joints or necks, while the berserk humans attacked like a pack of savage wolves, without caring about personal safety and demolishing the Golems.

Seeing that they weren't having a hard time except for the endless flood of Gemstone Golems, I quickly shapeshifted myself into a scarlet slime and using [Earth Manipulation], I swam through the dirt of the battlefield as if it were water.

When I reached the area were the Gemstone Knight was, I slowly extended a part of my body towards the surface, to see her state inside of the dome she has created.

Inside, I found a small girl wearing scarlet armor, she had a small complexion and an adorable pale white face, she had rainbow eyes and scarlet hair, she was crying in fear and desperation, while constantly conjuring more Gemstone Golems.

"Ghh! Gemstone Golem! Gemstone Golem! Ggghh… Snif, snif… Gerard… Gerard… How could you die? Snif, snif… Someone, please save me…"

Saeko cried desperately as I approached slowly towards her, slowly expanding my slime body like a scarlet mantle.

"Snif… Gera- …Huh?"

When she noticed that I a scarlet mantle made of viscous slime was near her, it was too late, as I jumped over her entire body and entangled her with my Slime body.

"Gyaaaahh!!! S-Someone help me! N-No! I don't want to die! I don't want to die…! Snif… Gyaah! U-Uncle…! Mommy! Gueekh! Ghh…"

I finished the girl off quickly by poisoning her with my own body, she began to spams in agony for a moment, while vomiting and crying blood, her eyes turned red as she saw her last moments of life.

"Gggh! M-Mom… Gaahhh! Mo… Ggh…"

Her eyes suddenly rolled up as her delicate breath suddenly stopped alongside her heartbeat. She was dead. She was quite resilient and fought to the very end, her flesh will certainly nourish my family.

Ding!

"Easy pickings…"

After devouring the girl's soul, I saved the Gemstone Knight corpse inside of my Item Box. However, I heard a sudden commotion outside of the Gemstone Dome, as if terrible and destructive winds annihilated everything in their sight.

FWOOSH! FLUOOSH!

"Hm?"
