We watched as Stronoff rode off with his men, Momonga sighing while standing still.

"When I first met the humans here, I saw them as no more than insects, as you do. But, the more I speak with them, the fonder I grow. Like a child among helpless animals."Momonga said, making me frown.

"Is that the reason you were willing to promise the honor of your great name to his request, my lord?"Albedo asked but I tuned out the rest of the conversation, my eyes on the horizon. It was quite a sight. I listen in on the Chiefs concerns for the townspeople, though I didn't trouble myself too much with it. Momonga has a plan, and as his servant I shall whole heartily believe in him and wait for his command. I grin as Momonga casted something,  our bodies reappearing in an open field. I take my sickles out, prepared to fight in his name.

"I have something of a relationship with those villagers."Momonga said after introducing himself, staring at the blond white eyed leader.

"Have you come to beg for their lives? Or just your own?"The human asked, raising a brow.

"No, no. You misunderstand. I overheard your conversation with the Chief Warrior. You really have a lot of balls, don't you?"Momonga said, making my jaw drop. I'm so glad I have a mask on.
"I spent my precious time and energy saving those people and you brazenly declare your intent to massacre them. I can't imagine anything more offensive." He continued, the human grinning.

"You're being rather brazen yourself, for a meager magic caster. So, what do you plan to do?"The human asked, Momonga raising a gloved hand to him.

"Offer your pitiful life to me without resistance. Do this and there will be no pain. However, if you refuse, I swear, here and now, you will die painfully and in despair for your imprudence."He declared, the human snickering.

"Have the angels attack this fool!"He ordered, my body flinching from wanting to jump forward. I can't. I must stay here, unmoving. I watched as Momonga was stabbed by two swords, both going through him. I felt angry just seeing that until a flash of green overcame me.
"I expected more after a bluff like that.... Huh?"The human man said, gasping when he saw the two angels struggling as Momonga grabbed them.

"Did you not hear me? I said to offer your life without resistance. By the time we're through with you, you'll wish you had listened."He said, my heart racing. We? Will I be able to fight? Excitement filled me at the mere thought of creating bloodshed. The human men yelled about how Momonga was playing a trick, making me chuckle.

"High Tiered Physical Nullification. It's a passive skill that completely nullifies the physical attacks of low-leveled weapons and monsters."Momonga explained, slamming down the two angels which killed them.
"As I thought. They really are the Archangel Flames from Yggdrasil."He commented, making me look at him as he stood straight once more.
"The fact that you can use magic and summon spells from Yggdrasil intrigues me. I want to know why they exist here, and how you could have learned them. But, for now, I'll focus on either killing you myself or letting my Jester kill you her- himself."He said, making me tune in. He turned to me before speaking, looking at Albedo.
"Albedo, You shall witness one of the strongest members we have in Nazarick today."He said, turning back.
"But, first. You wanted a massacre? You'll get one."He said, the human panicking. I heard the order for Albedo to stand back,  Making me tense as I got into stance.
"Zailrin, cast protection on yourself. I'm sure friendly fire exist in this world."He said, making nod as I casted spells on myself.
"Negative Burst!" he shouted, causing panic in the humans as they casted spells towards the high of us. I grinned as I zoomed forward before swinging my sickles around their weak necks, slicing human heads cleanly off their bodies. After riding had killed at least ten of them I jumped back, standing next to Momonga.
