Velgrynd and I faced each other, and unleashed our attacks looking to end this battle.
Our attacks clashed, and I got sent flying while a part of Velgrynd got sliced up.
The battle was turning into a stalemate of sorts.
But, results are starting to show.
At a glance, it looked like a furious exchange between us, but I had a fair amount of breathing room.
Although I got blown away by the clashes, I diverted most of the impact away, taking almost no damage.
Analysis of Velgrynd’s abilities was complete, and just looking at the compatibility between us, it was clear that she’s not a threat to me.
It’s my win.
I am certain of it.
At this point, I received a telepathic message from Diablo.
(Kufufufufu. It looks like a “Rat” has crawled its way into our fight.
It has been cornered onto the flagship, what are your intentions sire?)
From just his tone, it sounded like getting rid of it was easy.
As for the results for the various battles, some were put into tough battles, but no fatalities so far.
The “Rat” was sneaking around among the battles the Devil Lords were in, observing the battle between Carrera and the guy in uniform from the shadows.
He didn’t look like he was going to assist his “allies”, what a shady fellow.
Also, it seems like he ate one of his dead “comrades”, looks like he had an ability of the “consumption” type.
So, was his aim the man in uniform?
Up til this point, on my orders, the surrounding space was within a field that interrupted teleportation.
I didn’t want any unwanted guests, nor did I want anyone escaping.
If the “Rat” wanted to escape, his only option would be to move outside of the field that was set up.
To break through a hole in the field, and get an Airship out of the field. Then teleporting away from there.
Therefore……… his destination must be safe spot, which also means that’s where his allies would be.
Should I round up all of them, or get rid of the “Rat” now?
Someone who moves around stealthily huh.
Yuuki may be involved.
If I got rid of the “Rat”, the link to whoever is behind the scenes would be cut off.
If the Emperor is eliminated, the Empire will fall into chaos. Which also meant, other factions could take advantage of the situation and grow larger.
In any case, I shall set a trap for the “Rat”.
It would be best if it takes the bait (Emperor), and I get to reel them all in.
Although I have no way to confirm who is behind all this currently, it’s a good idea to cut the threat at it’s roots.
(Let the “Rat” scurry for now. It’s probably trying to escape via teleportation, so I want to know it’s destination.
After we come into contact with whoever is pulling the strings, we eliminate them. Put priority into finding out who is behind this!)
(Understood!)
