Kei and the group escaped Asul and reappeared not far from town in an open field. It was still daylight yet the events had a massive impact upon the community of Asul.The authorities will flip the town to search for them.

"Girls, I think we should be camping outside." There was a forest not too far, better than being out in the open. The girls haven't spoken a word since then, which brought a somber atmosphere.

Elen was still stunned, trying to process what happened. The power, the skills, the brutality.

She can't help but feel unease or fear if she accidently ask Harold and the adventurers for help. Even though she full heartily and logically knows following Kei is her best option to get where she wants to. She can't help but stare into the distance, visioning multiple scenarios playing in her head, all the what-ifs.

She was remembering all the brief time spent will Kei. Who was he? What did he want? What's his goal? How was he this strong? But one thing she remembered was what he said that night:

"First, I want to iterate this again to all of you. I can be a cold bloody killer whether they be innocent or criminal. Tick me off and your head will roll, understand? I'm nice to people who are nice back. When someone is not so nice, well... You get the picture."

CLICK

It all clicked in her head like finishing a jigsaw puzzle. She just didn't take those statements seriously. What Kei said was completely true, what he said that night and at the slave trade. He will kill no matter who it was. She doesn't know what limit for his temper to flare up. Someone giving the stink eye, cheat him, trick him, pointing out his mistakes, or even accidently bumping into him.

Elen knows she made the right choice to not wronged him in anyway. Following him was still the correct choice.

What carved in her heart was to never ever make him upset. She doesn't know what's Kei's tolerance level and she doesn't want to test it out. Other people can do that with their own lives.

Kei said he will perform a show tomorrow, to prove what he's capable of. What will he... Oh - my - goddess. It suddenly hit her like a hammer, no like a brick house. She thought when they leave town, Kei will prove himself with some magic in an open area or fighting a monster in some forest. But throughout the entire time spent walking around in public, people were insulting him like no tomorrow and there were some people throwing stones at him. He said business owners wouldn't even attend to him. He endured it all with a smile on his face.

*****

The next day had arrived.

It was finally time to put a performance show for all to see.

Kei asked a series of questions to Elen, especially on summoning. Summoning was a very common kind of magic to summon the unknown into their world learned at academies. The most basic and popular choice was a delivery bird and some sort of guard hound. Select individuals in the past can summon a beast of power or diety of wisdom. Elen said Kei needed to sacrifce mana and call upon your desired choice. Unexpectingly, what appeared was not a succubus he desired but a book. A book with a list of monsters and creatures he can summon. What surprised was it was like an encyclopedia of mythical creatures from his world!

I can fucking summon a kraken!

Various beasts and monsters cost a variety of mana. The bigger or deadlier it is, the more costly it is. But for a small scale such as the town of this size, he didn't need a lot. About 100,000 was not overkill, right?

They were still in the forest and he is about to summon a fearsome army that can make the world shake. His initial plans were to go on a rampage but summoning a horde was more enticing.

The three girls were at a distant and sitting like it is really was a show.

Then darkness spreads to every corner of the ground with Kei at the center and it stretches far and wide.

Then things are started coming out from the darkness!

Skeleton warriors, raiders, archers and liches took the majority of the numbers summoned.

Few skeleton generals were summoned as well.

Then creatures of hell started appearing: orthrus, gargoyles, chimeras, nemean lions, and cereberus!

Vicious beasts that can make veterans quake in their boots!

"Oh! Doggy! Doggy!"

Polin was excited to see many dogs, even though they are two-headed and three-headed.

Kei makes sure to tell his minions that those 3 ladies were not to be harmed.

A 10-feet, black fur, red glowing eyes cereberus came close to Polin and she got up and petted it.

"Aww. That's a good doggy."

She wasn't afraid one bit but Elen was scared shitless to see an army of undead and monsters coming from a void of darkness! Bridget dropped her jaw at the sight of this horror of an army, she was excited.

"Can I keep him!?!"

"Sorry little wifey. He isn't pet material and he needs to fight in the army."

"But..."

"I can summon him anytime if you want to. Don't worry, he'll be fine. Okay?"

Kei patted her head.

"Okay..."

She hugged cereberus and went back to the others feeling dejected.

I wonder if she is a dog person?

Army of Hell:

10 Skeleton Generals (SG)

30,000 Skeleton Warriors

20,000 Skeleton Raiders

12,000 Skeleton Archers

5,000 Liches

10,000 Gargoyles

10,000 Chimeras

7,500 Nemean Lions

5,000 Orthrus

10 Cereberus

Kei summoned SGs because they had intellect and were considered very strong among the horde. Kei doesn't see himself as a fitting leader, plus he was too lazy for such thing. It's just a small town, just slaughter and wreck shit, but he wanted to let them go to other countries and wreck havoc. Might as well have someone at the helm.

The 10 SGs jumped off their skeleton horses and kneeled down before Kei.

"MY LORD!" All of them shouted. They all wore the same military uniform but hold differents weapons. So, Kei named them after their weapons.

General - Saber, Pike, Spear, Katana, Mace, Hammer, Axe, Halberd, Talwar, Bow.

"You see that town over there?" Kei pointed at the direction of Asul and all the SGs turned their skulls to see a town through the trees.

"YES, MY LORD!"

"I want you kill everybody there! Women, children, elderly, who fucking cares! Rob them of their treasures and coins!"

"YES, MY LORD!"

"But there are things you can't do and a few specific intructions! Don't kill a man name Cal, Bagit, or any other demons! Avoid Bagit's Slave Trade, Ford's Diner, and slum district! If you enter any other slave trades, kill the owners and free the slaves! Also, try to not destroy the food!

DO YOU UNDERSTAND ME!"

"YES, MY LORD! WE UNDERSTAND YOU!"

"THEN FUCKING KILL!"

Kei told the non-skeleton monsters to follow the SGs' intructions, everything was metally linked. Then everybody moved like a solid, giant unit. The SGs were already forming ranks and marching towards their destination and death followed.

"Okay everybody lets on to higher ground and watch the show."

Kei picked up Bridget who was giddy like a school girl. Polin followed Kei closely and holded on to his shirt.

Elen just standing there, dazed. Am I dreaming?

[Back in Asul]

Captian of the Guard (Kur): Fuck! First my son and then the Adeventure Guild burned down. What the hell is going on!

Yesterday, the guildmaster and mayor met with Kur to discuss about incident at the gate. While they were discussing about possible evidences and witnesses until they saw smoke coming from the plaza.

It was frightening to see the Adventure Guild swallowed in blue flames. How and why blue fire? Where it come from?

Such horrifying events happened in one day. The only possible suspect was the winged demon that had been wanted. Sadly, there were no corpses to be found and nothing but ashes.

The guildmaster was in disarrayed to let something like this happened under his care. The lives of those adventurers and staff was too much to bare for him, so he went into a decline.

The mayor was furious at Kur for letting a dangerous demon slipped into town, now there was crackdown on demons. Anyone who knew or helped Kei was guilty by association. They were planning to do a full blown search into the slum district and punished the demons, but got their hands full for cleaning up the aftermath of both those incidents. So, they waited for the today but...

"CAPTAIN! REPORT! REPORT! REPORT!"

"What is happening now! We're about to move out to the slum district!"

"Bu-uu-BUT! Monsters! Undead! Army! Army!"

Kur slapped this man and grabbed his collar and shake him.

"Listen carefully. Speak slowly or I'm gonna rip your tongue out!"

The man glupped and does as exactly as he said.

"Aaa-army of monsters and undead are heading this way!"

"What! Then sound the alarm you idiot!"

Kur let go of the man and ran towards the top of the wall. Kur's men heard this too and wanted to see as well. They were getting excited since everyday was mundane. A fight with monsters was more interesting.

But when they saw what they are up against - it's the end of the fucking world. Their enemies were 100,000 thousand strong. They were seeing monsters they're never heard of. Giant dogs with multiple heads? Never seen or heard one before, it's different from demonic and legendery wolves.

Their numbers are 4-5 times the kingdom's size army. Even if the kingsom managed to raised such numbers, the monsters' strength was enough to fight against a quarter million or more.

Those skeletons were wearing high quality, magical enhanced equipment. Who the fuck made them?

It's like an army from a forgotten era that had risen from hell to take the mortal world.

Kur was stupified seeing this. What can be any worse than this?

He turned to look at his men and they were losing spirit.

Kur knows nobody was not going to live after this. He already lost his wife before and then his son, and why not fight in glory?

Kur slapped his face to get his spirits up.

"Men! You are the protectors of this town! We're protect with all of our lives! You hear me!"

Jumping out of their fear.

"Yes, we hear you!"

"Then to battle stations! Archers and mages lined up at the walls!

Squad 1 to 4 barricade the gate!

Someone get the guild master and find any adventurers in town for fuck sake!"

Everyone was rushing and preparing for battle for their lives.

***

The people are panicking, scrambling like ants carrying their belongings. They can't leave town because there was only one exit out and the scene was bloody. The town was surrounded by foul creatures, they can't escape no matter what!

A pack of nemean lions were fighting against guards near the the gate.

Someone tried to slash one of them behind.

CLINK

The sword snapped in two!

"What the fuck this thing made of!"

The nemean lion turned around and mauled his face off!

"AHHHHH!"

...

Gargoryles and liches took to the sky to kill the archers and mages.

The archers aimed at one of the gargoryles but his arrow can't pieced it because it was made of stone!

A lich fire off a fireball at that archer and then he was engulfed in fire!

"Ahh! Ahhh!!"

THUD

He was panicking and tripped over the ledge and splattered into the ground turning into meatpaste.

...

"Let us in! Let us in!"

A huge crowd was outside of the Church of Life in the plaza. They were banging and tackling the doors.

"Let us in you damn preist! Don't you have holy magic! Get the damn holy knights!"

"Priest! Priest! Priest!"

Everyone was crying to be let inside the church. It was their only salvation from slaughter.

But church was already filled with people inside! There was no room for more!

The priest was praying to the statue of the Goddess of Life.

"Praise to the Goddess of Life for I am a humble servant. Please let your shining light guide us to a safe haven. Protect us from the monsters of darkness!"

Everyone in the building prayed along with the priest. All of them were ignoring the cries of the outside and letting themselves immersed in prayer and forget this horrible day.

Then suddenly the crowd in the plaza was silent.

G. Talwar and G. Spear had hundreds of raiders blocking pathways to the plaza.

The people look around and there was no escape. Only the sound clopping hooves of the skeleton horses.

G. Talwar's weapon was already covered in blood, yet it did not deter it to stop.

It pointed its weapon toward the crowd and shouted, "KILL!"

Then every raider charged right in, trampling and cutting down every single person in the vicinity.

Fountains of blood sprayed into the air and letting the blood flow through every creak in the streets.

The raiders made short work the civilians but now the church.

It was covered with low-level light barrier but it wasn't strong enough to hold those monsters.

The three-head dog of the underworld, cereberus, was at it's door.

With a charge, it broken the barrier and bashed the double doors of the church wide open!

"Noooooo!"

Everyone who was close to the door back away from the beast and they couldn't push back any further. There too many people! Luckily, cereberus was too big to go through the doors but not for a swarm of orthrus!

Two-headed dogs came rushing and biting and tearing the flesh of everybody!

The priest shot a spear of light towards one of them but it was only pushed back.

Then another orthrus jumped on its comrade and head straight towards the priest!

One of it's two heads managed to chomp onto the priest's neck very hard and break it!

The rest was of the people can only be lunch for the dogs.

...

It was madness, everyone was getting killed left and right. Smoke was rising from everywhere. Skeleton warriors were ransacking each house and businesses.

The guildmaster (GM) can't believe his eyes. It was truly a hellish nightmare, the burned down Adventuer Guild was only a precusor.

"How the hell did this all go wrong?" Is all he could think about.

They were just a normal town, no specialty about it. It's not even a strategic location for war too!

Then the GM caught his eyes on a skeleton in a beautiful military uniform that look like it was made from high-grade fabric. He was carrying a sword GM didn't recognized but can tell it's a powerful swordsman. It's was surrounded by monsters (the chimeras) and some warriors.

GM and the other adeventurers' roles was to protect the estate of the mayor. He was a baron in these lands. Even though he's nobility ranking is low, normal people can't decline his demands or just leave him dead.

G. Katana caught its sights on the lord of the town and he found him. G. Katana unsheathed his katana and ran towards the protectors of the mansion along with it's subordinates.

"DIE!" G. Katana yelled his battle scream and cut through a few man like butter!

GM: So sharp! So precise! This beyond the normal means of sword mastery!

GM was also a swordsman, he became a guildmaster at aged 35 when he decided to retire from being an A-rank adventurer.

GM can only gripped his steel sword and wrapped his mana onto his blade.

The katana and steel sword clashed, and the steel sword was creaking at the center!

GM back away and pulled a second sword from the ground from a dead adeventurer.

The other adventurers are already dead by now and the warriors was rushing into the mansion ransacking and grabbing the mayor.

GM knows he was going to die but he's seeks answers even at death!

"WHY? Why us!?! Please tell me before I die!"

"HEH HEH HEH" G. Katana chuckled.

GM can't help but shivered to its hollow laughter.

"Our Lord wanted this town to meet death!"

"Why? We didn't anything wrong!?!"

Then G. Katana used telepathy to ask his Lord if he should answer people's questions why did this happen.

Kei gave all GSs if ask why death came to them, then answer.

"Because you upset out Lord!"

"Then who is your Lord!?!"

"HEH HEH. DIdn't he try to be an adventurer yesterday?"

What? GM was trying to connect the dots of what happened yesterday. Apparently there was a demon who came in before the whole building was on fire.

Then a lightning strike attacked his head. The GM intentional allowed demons to be haressed to not beoming adventurers and an untold policy to ignore demons applicants and requests. Unfortunely, yesterday was that demon who had brought this crisis to the town.

Just because we bully him to not being adventurer?

Then he remebered something. For the past few days there was a demon roaming around and everywhere he walks people would verbally abuse him. It was the talk of the town.

I see... It's our fault. One demon to do all this?

GM was a human, he was no different from everyone else when treating demons. He could only lament how short sighted he was, that there was a true demon among them.

G. Katana walk close to GM who pratically gave up the will to live.

He raised his katana with one hand and ...

SWOOOSH

The blade slice through the neck of GM and his head rolled to the side.

From the top of the hill on open plains, the group was sitting down like they were having a pinic.

Just watching carnage that was happening in the town.

The whole 100,000 army surrounds the town and let as small as 2,000 into town. Not a single person or thing had died during the assualt.

The screams, the flames, the smell of blood filling in the air was enticing at least for Kei and Bridget.

Elen was just watching everything unfold. She didn't like humans and she can care less for demons. She put her race before all others but after seeing this. They brought themselves this because their mistreatment of demons, more especially on Kei. And she knew deep down that her own people shunned and humilated demons as well. Her country Eluvia had a slave system and the majority of the slaves... were demons.

If Kei met any discomfort from her people or felt the need to free his race - their country will be in ruins.

Elen can't wrapped her head Kei and his impluses to slaughter.

Why such a man came into being? If he was this strong, he could had won the war.

Why now of all times? It was like he was appeared out of nowhere.

Then Elen was thinking, what if he was sent? He can't be actually living under a rock, right? With his personlaity, he'll be traveling the world enjoying food, drinks, and women.

The demons worshipped the deity Goddess of Death, Deco.

The demons spread her word, tell many people that she was their creator, and is the master of this world.

The Church of Life didn't like that and it was a major religion to all other races. The Goddess of Death was seen as an abomination and the embodiment of evil. So, they formed an Alliance of many powers and many races with the Church of Life to go on a Holy War against the Demon Race and worshippers of the Death Goddess.

The war lasted 10 years and ended 20 years ago and Demon Race lived in the barren wasteland and treated like dirt.

And now a demon with powers that can match a god, who was peerless had came.

Where he walk, death would follow.

Goddess of Death... If you really existed then why you bring such man here? Was it revenge? Is this our punishment for treatment of your people? He will kill all of us except for demons. Do you want us all to die?

You might not be here yourself but you definitely made DEATH INCARNATE!
