King of succubus

As soon as the general crossed the mist, he was separated from the others!

What he didn’t know was the specialty of this place. As the article on the art of war says, knowing the characteristics of the field is already a half-self victory!

The red mists are not only there to make the decoration but rather have characteristics, illusory and toxic.

The higher the rank of a mage, the more he will have the power to resist the poisons in the atmosphere and the powers of hallucinations, and vice versa, the emperor mages and below will be nothing more than mere victims.

Knowing these factors, Alvine had taken the necessary precautions by bringing only divine mages, hence the lower number of his troops. As for the reason why his men carried pieces of tissue on their noses, it was natural to prevent the toxic smoke that covered this entire area affects his troops!

“Squad three, and my squad, go north two kilometers away and assist our troops who are already facing our enemies in the forest there!”

“!” As the head general rushed at lightning speed towards the source of light that had appeared rather, he stopped clearly, after hearing his own voice resonate in the surroundings!

“What?! Does someone imitate my voice?! Tsk, what a shameful strategy!” He replied in a rabid tone.

But before he ordered, his words got stuck in his throat, noticing that he was alone in the bloody black forest, separated from the others!

-Clap, clap, clap…

“Who’s going there?!” He thundered when he heard applause in front of him.

“Umu, Umu, you are the first to come here, as expected from a high-level divine general!” At the same time, a man dressed in light black armor gradually approached him while continuing to applaud him.

“!”

“Delight to have met you; I am… the reaper who came to collect your miserable life. Be honored by my presence.” Alvine continued, stopping a hundred meters from him.

“Humph, because you think you’re capable of it?!” He replied after his momentary shock.

He then pointed his spear at Alvine and continued with arrogance, letting his divine aura sweep the surroundings. “Come here so that I can collect your skull to complete the necklace I am currently creating for my little puppy!”

“… Ho? How strange, I’ve been thinking about the same thing for a while; even if this beast’s meat is not of premium quality, it still remains a delicious dish for the taste buds. But it’s such a waste to confuse this enticing meat with a war mount.” He replied with a disdainful smile, slowly pulling his other sword into its sheath.

“!?!… It seems that you have a sharper tongue than your sword!” With this last sentence, the head general, a high-ranking divine demon, began his fight against the clone of Alvine, who could barely use fifty percent of his divine power.

[Divine area: ghostly darkness!]

Despite Alvine’s provocations, his opponent was not careless or reckless with him; he began by manifesting his divine domain, which is centered on the affinity of the dark.

-Graagh!!

At the same time, his emperor beast smashed the ground under its front legs while proudly growling as he created dozens of black chains that booed towards Alvine at an incredulous speed and chained him the next moment!

But instead of stopping there, the demon who had just finished the demonstration of his divine domain created several hundred clones of shadow beasts with the effigy of his sword-toothed tiger emperor!

At the same time, in addition to being attached, Alvine found himself facing an entire army made up of the beasts of darkness.

“Kahaha! Are you doing less arrogance now? Die!” The divine general retorted, ordering, at the same time, his army to besiege Alvine, who was trapped!

-Kragh!

Following his orders, his hundreds of beasts booed toward Alvine at a speed that was not lower than that of an emperor mage.

“Kuku, it promises to become interesting. With my powers almost halved, let’s see what kind of adversity I would face by confronting one of the divine generals!” While calmly uttering these words in a bloodthirsty tone, he opened his eyes, which were now bloody red.

[Triple spells of destruction: the tears of the Banshee!]

-Drop, drop, drop!

Instantly, instead of blood, part of his mana crystallized into three tiny drops of the tears of darkness that corrode the chains of darkness as soon as they contact them!

But by the time it took him to completely eliminate the chains of the saber-toothed Tigers, the other beasts of darkness reached his position; he could only release his right hand.

“Kekek, it’s more than enough for…

-Slash!!

“…To end these fucking imitations!” He retorted, beheading the shadow tiger who was the first to reach him!

At the same time, the black drops of tears let out a corrosive smoke around him, preventing the other shadow beasts from approaching him.

“Humph! Do you think that beheading one of my beasts would mean death?! That means that you don’t know why I became one of the ten divine generals of His Majesty King Artaros! Let me show you despair, poor idiot!” The general arrogantly shoots and snaps his fingers.

Simultaneously, the corpse of the shadow beast turned into black smoke and merged with one of the dark tigers whose size, power, and power increased twofold simultaneously!

-Graaagh!!

“!”

“Kahaha! Do you understand now?! Killing them will only make them stronger. And finally, when there are only twenty dark tigers left, each of them will have acquired the power of an intermediate divine magus! Do you now understand what shit you’ve put yourself in by targeting me as an enemy?! From the moment you made this decision, you were destined to die!” He continued to laugh loudly, almost forgetting his men being massacred far from him.

“Sigh, you’re strangely noisier than I thought.” As for Alvine, it was the only sentence he retorted after completely freeing himself from the chains that hindered him.

‘I would never have thought that dual cultivation with this protagonist would allow me to obtain her corrosive affinity. It’s interesting.

-But more importantly, why does this guy like to brag so much when the fight has not even begun yet? Is he so proud of the characteristic of his divine domain? Damn, it’s such a shame. I would have really, really loved to show him what the true power of the shadow was to contemplate his expression!’ He said to himself, sinking his sword into the ground and extending his palm in front of him.

[Come to me, my pearls of affinity!]

Following this brief incantation, the famous elementary pearls manifested themselves around him, illuminating the darkness that surrounded him since the appearance of the divine domain of his enemy, who seemed to be a mage preferring to let his invocations fight in his place to unseat the weakness of his prey before attacking himself.

But the next moment, Alvine the five of the ten pearls merged with Alvine’s two swords, imbuing the latter two with their attributes of burning flames and sharp winds, while the other five pearls merged to create an ethereal sphere the size of a golf ball.

But instead of stopping at this shape, Alvine taped the dream sphere and transformed it into a flat and round disc with crackling lightning around him and thermal heat emanating from him.

“Kekek, even if I cannot handle this skill as well as my lord, I never cease to surprise myself with my new creations.” He replied in self-compliment with a shameless smile.

“Hmph, I see you always have a little hope to survive. Attack him as a pack! This low-level skill will not be able to stop my entire tiger pack!” The head general thundered once again by ordering his minions!

At the same time, he froze once again, almost spitting blood of indignation after hearing his voice resonate from afar once again!

“Squad two and one, what the hell are you waiting for to waste so much time back?! We need reinforcements!”

Hearing these words, well pronounced by the tone and rhythm of his voice, his calmness and placidity evaporated into nothingness!

“Kill this bastard! I must take care of this individual who dares to imitate my voice!” He growled with rage with blood-injected eyes towards Alvine.

“Sigh, I guess I don’t need to have fun anymore too. All right, let’s finish once and for all; after all, I have to go and explore the ruins that are at the bottom of this forest.” He said, shooting his disc at the horde of beasts bouncing toward him.

At the same time, he caught his other sword planted on the ground and calmly sprinted towards the horde, taking an opposite path from his disc.

‘As my role is to leave this guy alive until General Fyora finishes her bait mission, I have no choice but to go slowly with him.’

He then flexed his knees and pulled towards the four beasts, which had just been reinforced by the other beasts that died, and beheaded the first and the second simultaneously.

As for the third, as soon as Alvine’s feet touched the ground, it growled towards him with sharp claws.

But Alvine, who was faster than it, jumped to the top and used his straight blade, impregnated with a thick wind glow blade, and split it into two distinct parts. At the same time, the beast turned into smoke and merged with the last shadow tiger, which had just absorbed the powers of Alvine’s two other victims.

But a second after, Alvine moved away with surprise by noticing that the tiger in front of him was at least as strong as an intermediate divine beast.

Its size was at least ten meters wide! More significantly, Its two tusks were now similar to prehistoric mammoths’.

Meanwhile, unlike Alvine, who was fighting passively with his opponent, his subordinates had the impression of making hunting games with the men of the divine general.

The army of one million, which consisted only of emperor mages and divine mages of low ranks, managed to get out of it at the beginning. But after wandering in the forest for a long time, fatigue, nervousness, and panic made them more vulnerable to the illusions and poisons of the woods.

Let themselves be voluntarily devoured by carnivorous plants, fall asleep in the heart of the way, and let themselves be devoured by biped beasts that prowled around without resistance.

From an external view of this scene, these people looked like those who willingly offered their lives to reach the underworld. But the reality was quite different…

-Arghhh!!

They simply could not differentiate between danger and safe areas because their senses that are affected by the toxic and bloody mist they had never stopped breathing from the moment they crossed the non-return border.

As the cries resounded frequently, panic in the face of the unknown settled among them, thus leading them to become more agitated and, consequently, more affected by the toxic mist.

General Vlad’s squad, who was supposed to take care of the one million emperor mages, were there looking at the scene with deafness and disbelief, watching their opponents each other because a significant factor was the mist of illusions!𝑶𝓥𝑙xt.𝒞𝑜𝓂

“General Vlad, what are your orders?” One of his subordinates, a girl with long golden hair and sapphire blue eyes, murmured this question by her side.

“Sigh, Mira, order our archers and mages to cast long-range offensive attacks. We will not need to mix with them.” Vlad responds in a flat tone by storing his sword and catching a long arc of celestial rank that is on his back.

“Perhaps the lord knew from the beginning that we would not need to face them head-on, hence our ridiculously low number of two hundred miles against an entire army of one million soldiers. In addition, as we are all elves, long-range attacks are mainly our specialty. So anyone who dies ridiculously here will not have the slightest funeral ritual!” He retorted, pulling the rope from his bow with the tip of his arrow imbued with a golden glow.

-Shot!!

-Whoooshhh!

-Bang!!

As soon as his arrow landed among the troops, it took with it dozens of soldiers to their graves without them having time to defend themselves.

“It’s ridiculous,” Mira murmured to herself when she saw the mages die so easily from such an attack that, apart from the power of the aura, had no attribute with it.

But yet, it could still kill so many emperor mages as if they were nothing more than vulgar ants.

“You took my words in your mouth. In short, do not damage their corpses too much; armor and space bags will be war loot that will replenish the war chest.” He then ordered with a cruel smile that distorted his beautiful face.

“One last thing, if you don’t want to lose your head like them, never damage your masks. Protect them like the apple of your eye!”

—

Meanwhile, the famous artificial forest created by the Alvine clone as an imitation of the one Alvine had created on the Garyth plantation to accommodate the magical beasts hid Alvine’s first three squads.

Like predators in the shade, looking for the opportunity to shoot down their prey, the three Alvine squads were patiently waiting for the arrival of the other two elite squads of Artaros!

They had already got rid of squad three, which was the first to feel the terrain.

But unlike the emperor mages, the battle against the third elite squad was not so simple. Since they were entirely made up of the mages of low-ranking and intermedia-ranking divine elites, they could resist the effects of the bloody mist.

But thanks to the traps of the artificial forest, the three Alvine squads did not have too much trouble getting rid of them, with some human losses in their ranks.

“General Fyora, our enemies are fast approaching. And they seem more suspicious than the first crowd we welcomed rather.” A human man with dark brown and curly hair whispered his report to a succubus with long pure white hair in a ponytail and golden eyes, who was also the new general of the beta squad.

“Enemies? Fufu~ No, as the Lord says, they are nothing more than our prey, And our prey…

-Shhrrrrink!

“…Are destined to be hunted by the predators that we are!” She ended her sentence after removing her two pointed daggers from their sheaths.
