CHAPTER TWENTY ONE: The Fall

Calca opened her eyes. She was in a place she did not recognize, but it clearly was a holding cell of sorts. Demihumans were walking back and forth, sometimes they would say something to each other, most times they would just walk past with a nod. She was terrified and sat in silence for at least an hour just watching the Demihumans walk back and forth. Eventually one noticed she was awake and hit her cage.

"The Queen is awake, let Airxeen know." It barked down the hall.

"Airxeen? That boy who kidnapped her said that name... said he wanted to talk, but..." Calca realized she was still naked when the guards came to her door.

"Queen Calca of The Holy Kingdom?" while she thought about lying, that seemed like a terrible idea. Instead, she simply nodded. They opened the door and each took an arm and lead her without a word to a formal looking room with a desk and a Dark Elf behind it. She had been expecting this Airxeen to be a kind of bird Demihuman, at least that was who attacked the Re-Estize capital. She was forced to sit in a chair across from him, the Dark Elf snapped his fingers and a blanket was offered to her, which she took and wrapped around herself.

"Hello, Queen Calca of The Holy Kingdom... I trust you are enjoying my conquering of your lands?" His confidence was annoying, and he showed no remorse for his attack on her lands either.. she could guess how this was going to end.

"Rape and eat me or do whatever you have planned Dark Elf... I will not beg for my life." The Dark Elf threw up his hands.

"Why do women always assume I'm gonna rape em? It's a bit annoying..." he seemed frustrated by this, this made her a little curious then.

"Fine, then why am I here? I'd really rather get to the point." He shrugged and leaned back in his chair.

"Well, to be frank, I just wanted to talk to clear the air... that is to say to apologize in advance for what I'm going to do."

"And that is?" She asked a little scared. His smile seemed wicked as well.

"Mmm... well for one, when your troops get here and we begin this shindig, I plan to hang you and other nobles from the wall... you know, as a way to scare or anger your army... I imagine it won't be fun, with your hands tied up and hanging there for hours where everyone can see you... it'll probably very painful. So I just planned on letting you know that in advance," He casually mention this shameful display, Calca tried to not giggle at the thought of it all... under different circumstances... she'd call that a great night.

"Where is Kelart? The girl that was with me when that boy took me?" she was worried about her friend.

"She's fine, I can have you two to share a cell if you'd like." Calca nodded at that prospect.

"Okay Sir Airxeen, I acknowledge you are treating me with... courtesy... so what is to be our final fate? After the business with the wall that is?" He leaned back and thought for a bit.

"Well, I after I slaughter every last one of you soldiers you send and tear down your wall... I really don't have much of a use for you after you become my decoration... so I'll just keep you up there till you... ya know... die." he shrugged with a smile that was as heartless as the actions he spoke of.

"And if I can give you a reason to um... cut me down..." She asked in a low voice. He shrugged once more.

"I'm open to ideas... I already have enough women and you're too old for my taste, so I hope it isn't something stupid like 'you'll marry me." She shook her head

"No, I offer my magic... I can use magic of the fifth tier... and can bring the dead back to life so long as you provide a body and they are strong, I have very good healing magic... maybe the best in the land and even have invented beauty magic of my own," oddly enough he perked up at that last one.

"Beuty magic? Like, magic that makes you look younger or..." Why did he blow past resurrection magic and ask about her beauty magic? She wondered.

"That's right, it can also hide wrinkles and add colors to the skin magically that look natural as well..." But he stopped her by slapping the table.

"Sold, you will make a good handmaiden for my friend's wife, I never got her anythign for her wedding... you will fit that bill." She blinked... handmaiden? that was a nice way of saying, slave.

"A slave then..." The Dark Elf nodded.

"Indeed! You really should be honored, but all that will come with time. Okay, I've decided your important to me now as a gift to my dear friend's wife... as such i won't hang you from the wall..."

"You can!"

"What?"

"Um... or uh... I mean never mind... just please show my friend Kelart the same mercy you've extended to me."

"Yeah... about that, see your friend Kelart... I kinda like that one... I may take her as a wife... depends how nice she is to me, I suppose." Calca glared at him with anger, she knew immediately she messed up showing how much that bothered her.

"Do not touch her... she is mine!" Calca said standing up in a fit. He just smiled and nodded.

"Sit down, you are still very much my prisoner Calca!" He demanded and she listened.

"Oh by the way... this is yours right?" The Dark Elf reached behind the dels and he held the holy sword of her nation. that was the sword Remedios had reported stolen from her.

"Yes, that sword is a treasure of my nation, "He looked at it disinterestedly.

"Well it's kinda trash... but whatever, maybe it has symbolic meaning or something, anyway... we're done here, I just wanted to confirm a few things with you first.

"My friend Kelart..."

"Yes, I'll have her sent back to you after I've had my interview with her. Okay then off you go!" he made an "off with you" motion with his hand and the Demihuman guards took her back to her room. On the way there she saw a blindfolded and gagged Kelart getting taken to the room she just came from. Damnit, what did he have planned with her?

High in the air above Nazarick Momonga flys with Albedo on top of his dragon. He was in his Dark Elf form still as this was a "date" with Albedo, at least that what she was calling it, in reality, they were just taking a long way to see Jin at his wall. She sat behind him with her arms around his bare chest.

"You've certainly taught him to fly gracefully," Albedo said looking down at the land below her. Momonga looked back at her.

"You think so? I didn't really so much," He chuckled.

"Sebas probably did most of the hard work for me, he's been training all the dragons other than Aura and Jin's." He explained. They were high up and flying toward Jin's campaign on the Holy Kingdom as it was soon time to begin the fight at the wall.

"Lord Momonga... what is that?" Albedo pointed to another flying figure but this one was closer to the ground. It was flying much faster than they were as well.

"Master Momonga... I am aware of the one you are talking about... it's a Dragon Lord, I can see him clearly from here, I'd suggest not letting yourself be seen My Lord." Olasird'arc warned. Momonga cast [FULL INVISABILITY] on Albedo. Then took the form of Momon the Adventure.

"Also he is being ridden by someone s well."

"Does he know you are here?" Momonga asked.

"Yes, and his body language is that he know who I am... rather I think he assumes the Adventure Momon is riding me at the moment. He isn't hostile... but he's going at a speed I cannot match either..." Momonga looked realized they were headed in the same direction. There could be a fair chance he was going to where Jin was.

Evileye had contacted Momon to let him know she had a plan to deal with Airxeen as he was spotted making a wall near the Holy Kingdom. Could that be her? Suzuki wondered.

"Jin, heads up, you might have a powerful hostile coming at you." Momonga warned his friend using [MESSAGE].

"What? Tell me what you know..." Momonga told Jin that something called a Dragon Lord was coming in fast and that they were following but were not fast enough to keep up.

"Okay Olasird'arc, just keep us going in this direction as fast as you can, I don't want Jin fighting this thing alone if it means him harm," The dragon he rode on nodded once and increased it's speed best he could.

"You were right to contact me Evileye, from what I've gathered the person attacking the Holy Kingdom is the same one who took the capital... these actions are far too blatant for me to ignore." The giant Platinum Dragon Lord said to the little vampire girl riding him.

"I saw it happen with my own eye's... whatever this Airxeen has, is not something we can combat normally. I am glad you agree that this warrants checking in on," The Dragon Lord laughed.

"There aren't many humans I respect, but you are one and if you say that "nation breaker" may be needed... then I will assist you once again my old friend. By the way, the one you call Momon is following us" The dragon informed Evileye.

"That's good! He must have seen us flying and decided to follow... I've seen him fight, he will be a valuable ally against Airxeen!" He trusted her so said no more.

But when The Dragon Lord and vampire arrived above the newly built wall several humans were hanging all along it, facing the direction they were coming from. As they got closer they could make out a man on top of the wall with his arms crossed. The dragon lord known as Tsaindoruks Vaision glared at the wall and hostages. One was the Queen... so a giant attack to drop the wall wouldn't work after all.

"He has hostages... ." Evileye shook her head.

"The plan hasn't changed, but i can make out Queen Calca and that's her personal priestess, we should have the twins save them at least, the rest of the nobles..." the Dragon Lord said. The two invisible ninjas behind Evileye made their targets and got ready to act, jumping off the dragon and floating to the edge of the wall.

"Nice Dragon Evileye," Airxeen called out. He was in the form she would recognize, his Demihuman bird form and he took to the air. Tsaindoruks eyes went wide when he saw the pink stoned necklace hanging around Airxeens neck, he knew what it was immediately... this confirmed it... Airxeen was a "player".

"Give up Airxeen... your hostages won't save you, we've decided to take you out before you can become a true plague to humanity." Tsaindoruks Vaision said.

"Could you not kill my hostages? I did go through so much to get them," he said attempting to see if they were bluffing or not.

"We actually did not come here to fight if we don't need to... I happen to know what that thing around your neck is... it's the city you stole." Tsaindoruks said in a loud booming voice.

"Also, I recognize you as the one protecting that Vampire Lord not long ago." the birdman cocked his head at this.

"So, you were that silver knight I saw, huh? Well then... I don't know why you would think you could beat me. Especially when we've been waiting for you!" Airxeen said then suddenly a huge, not just huge but near gigantic tree burst from the jungle and struck the Dragon Lord hard as it grew like a punching fist from the ground.

Tsaindoruks was struck unexpectedly and tossed into the air like a rag doll, shoved high into the air by a tree from nowhere. A huge crack in the earth then opened up right where the Dragon was about to hit and was swallowed up by the earth that then closed in around him. Evileye cast [FLY] and caught herself just in time to see her friend get eaten by the earth then become buried by it closing in on him.

"Too bad I know a druid with crazy strong magic," A voice came from behind her she turned just in time to get struck hard across the face, her mask shattered as she was sent into the ground like a falling rock. Jin flew down and stood over her gloating.

"Not much of a plan I must say..." He was saying but he saw a smile on her face, this confused him.

"The plan is going just fine..." She said in pain. Jin looked at the wall to see some of his hostages had been cut down... but he quickly realized something else. Heat... Evileye suddenly vanished as she used a teleportation spell. The ground began to crack and raise up, it was too late by the time Jin realized what was happening. Suddenly a huge torrent of explosive fire came raging out of the ground like a geyser of fire and power!

The subterranean explosion akin to a nuclear blast obliterated the entire earth of the battlefield. One-fourth of Jin's wall was shattered into so many twigs and branches, it was like a child had made it. The roaring sound was deafening as so much dirt and debris was fired into the air it seemed like it was night as the sun couldn't penetrate this cloud of dirt and fire. The Holy Kingdoms wall took a heavy battering from the quarter section that was sent flying against, but held against the onslaught, but several areas were punctured by large wood debris pieces.

"WAAUUH" Jin cried as he was flung through the air, he was colliding with rocks and wood that was hurting him, the fire that followed blew him apart but also far from the explosion. Jin's smoldering body was sent flying miles from the explosion.

Even Mare who had immunity to fire was hit with such extreme heat he was sent flying in another direction, luckily Hitomi had given him a lot more defensive gear than what Jin was wearing. So the young boy did not sustain the kind of damage Jin did when he was sent crashing miles away in the opposite direction, but he was still knocked too far away to help from the shock wave.

Everyone else in the section hit by the blast of the fort base were sent scattered deep into the Holy Kingdoms Territory from the blast wave, or splattered aginst the human's wall like a fresh coating of red paint. While most in the walls fortress were spared fire damage, the shockwave and flying debris took their toll on the ones like Clementine but managed to not receive much damage as Shalltear went out oh her way to rescue her favorite toy from the brunt of the damage and threw herself onto her. Shalltear was unaffected by the shockwave and stood like a silent guardian, protecting the thing her Lord had gifted her.

Kiliastran's [POLYMORPH] was broke and her dragon form tumbled just like everything else she would be largely okay and would only suffer a broken wing upon landing in an unknown area of the jungle. Fortunately, Aura and her squad of pets were had just left for another round of hostage gathering so she only heard a giant explosion and the dirt cloud that followed, she dropped what she was doing and headed there as fast as she could.

Momonga and Albedo saw the explosion from far off, but now all they could see was a huge cloud of black dust, then a powerful shock wave knocked Olasird'arc out of the air. Albedo could fly naturally so simply caught her husband in mid-air, lowering the two of them to the ground as the deafening ring of the explosion rocked her ears and breaking Momon's Dark Elf form.

When the ringing stopped Momonga realized what had happened. That Dragon must have used some kind of high tier magic when Mare trapped him in [CRACKED EARTH]. As soon as any kind of vision would be granted and the shockwave ended Momonga thought about what had happened.

Momonga had no idea what spell it was, possibly even an attack he wasn't aware of as all he could no see the casting bubble. His first thought was [NUCLEAR EXPLOSION] but this devastation would not account for even that spells force... unless it was backed by something... exceptional. Momonga realized this Dragon could have gear on it that would account for that spells power. And he wanted it if it was what he thought it could be.

"We need to get to that blast zone Albedo..." Momonga ordered as he cast [GREATER TELEPORTAION] taking her to the blast point. A huge and very injured Dragon Lord was casting healing magic on himself when he noticed Momon appear from nowhere, Albedo was still under the effects of [PERFECT UNKNOWBLE] so he did not know she was there.

"Ah... Momon the adventure, I was expecting you..." The Ginat Dragon Lord said. Momonga decided best to play it friendly.

"I saw the attack from the air... it's amazing you are even alive." He honestly said seeing the damage on the Dragon Lord. Momonga realized he could easily kill the Dragon in this state, he gripped his blade tightly, Albedo,who was undetectable to the Dragon Lord, was moving to follow up the attack as soon as Momonga made his move.

Suddenly many shouts could be heard as Thousands upon thousands of enraged Demihumans poured out of the broken segment of the wall, they slammed against the human's wall which had sustained damage of one part very badly. The Demihumans took this as a sign to attack, and they were already tearing away at the wall while others made a beeline to the hurt dragon, screaming about tasting dragon meat for the first time.

"Can you fight?" Momonga asked but the question was irrelevant as the dragon quickly leaped away, taking flight.

"You deal with those, I will handle Airxeen," Tsaindoruks Vaision said flying off in the direction Peroroncino had been tossed...

"Ugh..." Jin got up coughing. The blast hadn't been enough to trigger his resurrection item but he was badly hurt, and took fire damage so flying was impossible at the moment. His head was ringing and he still couldn't stand up, just crawling as he waited for his health potion to slowly dull his pain.

"There you are!" A giant voice boomed out as Jin was covered by a huge shadow. He looked up to see the Dragon that attacked him coming down at him with outstretched claws.

"Shit..." He fired a shot off with his bow but it wasn't charged so was weak and the dragon slapped it aside.

"Damnit... this is gonna hurt..." Jin said as he saw the claws come at him. There came a loud crash but instead of getting driven into the earth, a red armored vampire stood between the dragon and himself. Shalltear had her lance up in a defensive stance as she took the attack for her Lord.

"You..." Tsaindoruks Vaision said in recognition of Shalltear. But she threw his claw to the side and lunged with her lance into the shoulder of the dragon taking it off his feet and making him fall on his back.

"You filth! You dare lay a hand on my Lord?" Shalltear cried in anger as she rammed her lance into the neck of the dragon. He bellowed out in pain but she rammed her lance into the open mouth, skewering the back of his head with a critical strike. A huge burst of blood flew out from the massive head of the Dragon Lord.

Jin just sat back in amazement at how precise her strikes were, he was useless until he could get into the air to aid her support fire. The Dragon then vanished using a teleportation spell but Shalltear had already cast delay teleportation, so as he tried to escape she easily read where he planned to go and was already there attacking when he appeared in front of her. The giant Dragon was spiked into the ground, knocking up more dirt and debris in this gloomy dark noonday battle arena.

"Die, Vampire!" Tsaindoruks Vaision shouted as he fired his breath attack. a holy infused wildfire Dragons Lords breath that would obliterate anything it touched. but an explosion on the right side of his face made the blast veer off course and miss Shalltear.

The attack had been the one good skill Jin had on the ground, the explosive sunlight arrow. The Dragons Lords eyes went wide as he realized his one shot at victory was ruined. Shalltear came down on his head, driving her lance through his eye into his brain and out the other side as she was enveloped in a torrent of Dragons blood.

She stood panting and heaving, as her blood frenzy was unleashed to it's full form. Her eyes went red as she lost the ability to distinguish targets. She would just attack the first thing she saw, and that was the wounded form of Peroroncino.

"EEENNNEEEMMMMYYY!" Shalltear shrieked with murder as she made a direct line for Peroroncino, mistaking him for an enemy with blood in her eyes.

"HHHAAA!" Another female voice cried out as Aura came flying in with an ax kick to Shalltear sending her face first into the ground. The force of the kick and her face made her bounce several times before she caught herself, barely affected by the kick.

"You've gone crazy again huh idiot Shalltear? well, I know how to deal with this!" Just then thirty or more magical beasts all made a wall for Aura and Peroroncino, hiding them from Shalltear. She immediately forgot about them and was focused on attacking the thirty new things that just appeared.

"WWWHHOOOO!" She shrieked as Shalltear flew at them but they each scattered into a different direction, making her chase only one. Aura ran off with Peroroncino in her arms at this time, there was a one in 32 chance she would choose them and luckily she went after a random beast, allowing Aura to whisk Jin away. Aura would just use her pets to give Shalltear the runaround, something her brainless mind made easy enough until her blood lust ended and she was in control of her own mind once more.

On the opposite side of the battle, Evileye and Momon were attempting to cull the insane numbers of Demihumans. She appeared by his side not long after he engaged them. Momonga would turn and slash sending beast bodies flying apart from the sheer force of his attacks. Evileye would provide him support from the air raining crystal projectiles into the thick of the marauding Demihumans.

The Holy Kingdoms gate had a giant hole tore open that the tail end of the huge army was pouring into, any humans caught by them were torn to shreds immediately, including Neia's father, who never got the chance to become a traitor to his nation.

By now most Demihumans had given up on fighting the armored man and red caster girl and made a path into the Holy Kingdom. The Demihuman Swarm had breached the wall and were set to meet the approaching armies of the capital paladins and priests. However, neither army was expecting the other and both were in bad formation to meet.

"I'm going to support the Dragon in his fight with Airxeen... stay here and mop these up for me would you?" Momon asked Evileye.

"YES! Leave it to me!" she cried out in excitement that he had entrusted her this important task!

Many of the allied Human armies in the front had little warning as a blood-fueled ocean of Demihuman came crashing into them out of the jungle. While the giant noise from the explosion and the screams were heard by the armies they had some time to prepare but they were a well-fortified army standing in a swarming never-ending wave of Demihuman. But it was just a wall to hold off the unexpected surge of claws and teeth.

Other human armies that were setting upon the wall came upon this scene instead. the battle would almost be considered even as no orders could reach the screaming tribe of loosely aligned Demihumans. The split order that was reached by all outside commanders was to contain this mass as best as possible, so instead of rushing in to help the armies deep in, they spread out, making a human wall of spears and shields as far and long as they had time to stretch.

The disorganized attack and defense showed, as there were far less human casualties in the wall than there should have been and it was able to hold, yet the crack they made were many as well as the attacking forces slipped past the army, some tried to double back to help break the wall but it was a disorganized attempt and most Demihuman that tried this fell, the vast majority, however, ran past the soldiers and followed their noses, to the first large human settlement, that had no idea what was coming for it.

The Melee could be seen easily from up top the human wall, where humans huddled in terror, among them were Remedios, her sister and the two ninja twins Tina and Tia from Blue Rose, who had resued Lelart and Calca before this whole thing happened.

"The human armies... don't stand a chance, do they?" Calca asked in horror as she saw the armies caught in the center get slowly worn down by all sides. Even the quickly made human walls were beginning to show signs of falling as, at last, the last of Demihuman soldiers breached their lands.

"No my Queen... whatever caused that explosion has allowed the Demihumans into our lands, any smaller approaching armies will meet this same fate I'm afraid... then they will have free reign on all our towns, then cities... there is not a single thing to stop them now." Remedios said looking at the blood and mayhem below, feeling angry that there was nothing she could do to stop it.

"I don't know... if you ask real nice I might be able to do something about all... this," A man wearing a strange mask and metal gloves said. He had large enchanted shoulder pads and a cloak that was black and purple. Calca, Kelart and Remedios, as well as all the other surviving humans from the human wall, looked in amazement.

"Who are you?" Was all Calca could get out.

"A passing caster... I saw this ruckus from afar and flew over here to see if I might lend you all a hand." the caster said with a voice as calm as water as he looked over the 300,000 plus warring armies.

"How? What kind of magic do you know that would stop all THAT!" Remedios yelled pointing at her friends who were getting torn to shreds. The caster just chuckled sofly.

"Well, that's kind of what I was hoping to get to show you... that is if you meet my price," he said, folding his hands. Calca looked at her two good friends. Kelart was nodding, but Remedios did not look sold.

"Your majesty, how do we know this caster isn't behind all of this? It's awfully convent he shows up here and now, claiming to help us!" Remedios barked out, Calca did seem to consider her words however and paused.

"That is fine, if you think I'm part of it, I'll just be on my way then. Have fun getting eaten and raped by those things. Hopefully in that order," he said chuckling at his bad joke and turning and floating away. Calca looked again at Kelart who was nodding and pointing at their salvation that was quite literally floating away.

"Wait! At least tell us what your price is!" a voice called out. It was a blonde haired girl with a black cloak and leather armor on, she had a bow far too bog for her on her back.

Momonga turned to see this voice of reason. She was a girl, very young, cute but was glaring at him with such hate, he wondered why she even wanted to hear his price. He looked at Calca who nodded before Remedios could yell at her squire. he turned to face the Queen.

"My price is two-fold... one, my magic probably end up killing some humans...a lot to be honest. I'll try to limit their numbers... but their blood will be on your hands if I use my magic... if you agree to that, then the second term will be that sometime in the future you simply grant me a wish, any wish that would be in your Royal power... in short Queen Calca, you will "owe me one" While she knew what he could ask could and probably would be very painful to pay... at least she would have a country and p[eople left alive... the answer was easy.

"Simply let me know your name caster, and I will agree to whatever terms you need to save my lands..." Calca said lowering he head to the strange man.

"But He's..." Remedios began before Kelart stopped her older sister from ruining the salvation of their lands, she fully trusted her queen's choices and believed this man was their only shot at survival. The man nodded then floated toward the epic battle.

"My name is Momonga of Nazarick, remember it well as I will call on you someday," he said as a large casting ord surrounded him, while he hated long cast times... they were so uncool, he wanted to see if maybe there was a player demihuman or human among the melee, hiding in plain sight. They would recognize that he was about to cast super tier magic, so he wanted to give them as much time react as possible... so he just stood there until the spell was ready...

"Ready at last... sorry Jin, but you're plan failed, time to let me step in... is what I'd like to say, but really... I just want to see what this spell will do..." He muttered to himself.

"la shub niggurath!" the spell completed... a dark wave of energy was released toward the army and instantly 170,000 bodies hit the ground, dead. Around 95% of the initial dead were Demihuman but some human armies were caught up in it's the effect. Calca, Kelart, Remedios and Neia watched in shock as a huge black orb appeared then fell on the battleground. It splashed over the dead and became a liquid, every dead body that was absorbed vanished, all 170,000 killed were gone.

"What... what kind of spell is that?" Neia asked in amazement... both her hands were over her mouth. this caster had killed half the enemy army in one fell swoop. The caster turned to Neia.

"Did you ask what that spell 'was' just now? Please wait... it's yet to finish." Just being addressed personally by this man sent fear and awe coursing through her... who was this man who could control death? But her thoughts were broken by a strange sound... the sound of beating goats? Everyone was looking around, they too heard this odd sound.

"Goats? Are those...?" Calca asked but what appeared below her on the battlefield was not goats. nor any other creature she'd ever seen. There were seven huge black monsters... they had five feet each and many swirling tentacles swirled from their ten-meter tall bodies... then they move with the speed they had no business having. true to the word of the caster, the monsters only targeted the Demihumans, but also to his word many humans were caught up in the splat fest.

The four women looked on in amazement as the seven black monsters stomped on the Demihumans, crushing them under heel like bugs. Every now and again one would slam it's huge tentacle into the earth, sending screaming Demihuman into the air then dead as they landed. As expected most soldier and Demihuman on this killing floor tried to scatter or outright run in terror ut the brain-numbing speed these giant creatures held did not allow for a single Demihuman to escape.

"What... what kind of power is this?" Neia called out tot he caster who looked at her and wove.

"Just something I've been wanting to try out... do you like it?" The fact that he even responded to her, then asked for her opinion was more than Neia could withstand. What came from her mouth surprised even her.

"It's the most beautiful thing I've ever seen..." She didn't mean the death, she meant the control, while it was true, some humans were getting caught up, she could see he was actively trying to avoid killing them by controlling these seven monsters that sounded like goats. this caster, who helped them in their time of need, was far beyond anything she had heard of in legend.

"I'm glad you like it... I'm actually very proud... not that you would know, but I've broken a kind of record here... it's very exciting!" He said, his tone was that of a normal person... someone she felt like she could just sit and talk to, if not for his incredible presence. Only after twenty minutes or so, the seven black monsters with giant mouths had finished most of their slaughter, stamping out the frightened Demihumans. Calca and the rest just stood in silent awe as they saw the carnage wrought by the man they now owned a favor to.

"So.. I trust you are all satisfied? I tried to keep the human casualties to a minimum." The dark caster said turning to the women. It took a while but Queen Calca found her courage and voice.

"Sir Momomga... we have seen your overwhelming power and thank you for choosing to help us in our time of need... know that the holy kingdom will not refuse any offer made by this nations savior!" Neia smiled at the calling of this caster a "savior" by her queen... she saw this man in a good light... she wished everyone would, however...

"I hope you know what you've done my Queen..." Remedios grumbled as she walked downstairs. Neia wondered why Remdsiouis was in such a bad mood about having her country saved, she simply did not trust this man for some reason?

"I have done what I feel is right... now I will have no further opinions from someone who can't even hold onto the sword I gave her..." Calca stood up and walked over to Remedios.

"As of now, I strip you of all you are! Remedios Custodio... you are hereby removed from your position as captain of one of the Nine colors." Kelart was shocked at this sudden turn on her friend but remained silent, she backed her queen's word over her own sisters. Remedios tried to find words to protest but just turned and left. Calca was fighting back tears but this was something she would need to do eventually, she could not let slide the losing of a national treasure.

"Well... it looks like My job here is finished... sorry for the men that I had to kill... " Calca stopped him.

"Do not think anything of it Lord Momonga! If even my hand in marriage is what you wish for payment... know I will pay it happily!" Upon Calca saying this, there was the sound of a large metal object flying through the air. Suddenly Momonga was holding a huge black halberd ax, as if he had caught it out of mid-air, like it had been thrown from some unseen place. Calca looked surprised as the weapon loudly appeared in his hands... he looked off to a direction where nobody was standing.

"Indeed... well I will inform you at such time I require your payment... um until then... farewell Queen Calca!" The caster known as Momonga said as he suddenly vanished. The women stood in astonishment for several seconds before looking at the red landscape below them. Most of the survivors were indeed human, only a few Demihuman escaped the carnage and escaped into the jungle.

"That's the man I will marry Kelart... mark my word..." Calca said holding her young friend in her arms, the look in her eyes was that of determination but also a girl rescued by a hero... complete admiration. Neia felt a weird pang of jealousy at that remark but said nothing. She just remembered the way he had spoken to her... she wanted to know more of this man... this Momonga, the savior of her Nation... bit then Neia remembered her father and went to search among the wall's guard, it wasn't long till she found him...

By the time Peroroncino had woken up from his injuries, he was in a familiar place, the room of Aura and Mare. But he was alone. He thought back to what he could remember... he had failed... his plan came undone at the hands of an unexpected threat... he just groaned in regret, thinking what his foolishness might have cost Nazarick.

By now he was fully recovered and remembered Aura coming to his rescue. He cast [MESSAGE].

"Aura?" She answered.

"Hey, Jin, what's up?"

"Uh, thanks for saving me... um, what happened after all that?" Aura paused then filled him in.

"Lord Mononga killed the Demihumans you rallied and gained the respect and favor of the Queen there... most nobles are dead so she's the strongest decision maker now, at least thats what Lord Momonga told us." Jin let out a sigh of relief that his mistake was salvaged by his friend.

"So... everything is okay?"

"Yup, we found Mare, he was crying like a baby but was okay, mostly it seems all is well... oh but we don't know where Shalltear is, she'd been missing for the past day or so.

"Wait... Sahlltear is gone?" Jin sat up worried... she'd attacked him twice now... he wondered if that had anything to do with it.

"Then Mononga is okay? Everyone is fine?" Aura laughed in his head.

"You were the only really messed up! You're lucky to have me around, you know that?" Aura said, teasing him. But he silently nodded to himself. Yeah Hitomi had sent her will and love int he form of this girl... he knew that now.

"Yes Aura... I really am... you came to me instead of Momonga, didn't you?" he asked realizing she must have made a choice of who to back up.

"What? Um... what are you saying it like THAT? I uh... just knew you'd need my help... being so worthless and all... not like Lord Momonga!" She said. He wasn't there to see but she was blushing furiously.

"Either way Aura... thank you... I really love you, you know that?" he said smiling to himself as an image of Hitomi came to his mind.

"Wh...w...Waht? Lor...that... Don't say dumb things l... like that mast... erm, Peroroncino!" he wondered why he was "Peroroncino" now and not "Jin" all of a sudden.

"Anyway... thanks Aura... and tell Mare I'm sorry for failing and getting him hurt..." Aura still seemed flustered for some reason.

"No... I mean, it's okay Lo... um Mas... um, Jin...I uh have to go now!" Aura said unexpectedly. He wondered what she was doing but didn't think too much of it...

"Wait, Aura, where is Momonga?"

"He is in the throne room... l... a lot has happened in the day you've been asleep Master Jin." Aura explained, she was better now it seemed. Jin waited for a moment then looked at his Ring of Ainz Ooal Gown.

"Should I even go meet him yet?" He put his head down in total regret. he'd tried to gain the respect of everyone and caused this much trouble...

"You're so worthless Jin!" Hitomi's voice said rebuked him from memory.

"Yeah... Not much has changed I guess..." he got up and left the tree house that was located in the forest surrounding the arena on the sixth floor. He let out a final sigh before going to join his friend in the throne room to see how bad he'd messed things up.
