-I Think I have heard enough..

My spoke coldly noticing my changed demeanor made the female lamia in front of me surprised she wanted to say something,but just as she was about to do so a loud cry could be heard.

-Graahhhhh !

Hearing the cry the female lamia immediately widened her eyes as she glanced back she saw hobura slicing a whole lamia into two fighting off with another 2 at the same time.

At that moment she understood,but it was already late.

-You filthy...

She growled angrily drawing her sword about to slash at me,but I was ready and took a step back beneath me my shadow started to move out and raise up as hobusaku jumped out blocking the strike of the female lamia in front of me with her duel shortswords.

I tapped my transmission link and told dakiro that it was about time doing so I glanced over at the elder ratman who also looked at me nodding towards him decisively.

-Attack !

Getting my signal the elder ratman immediately stepped backwards and rummaged through the wooden carriage pulling out a iron sword like the other ratman were doing charging towards the lamia with their fighting spirit.

The female lamia was furious she backed off from hobusaku glaring at me poisonously as she commanded her troops.

-Kill them all ! Don't leave anyone alive !

The lamia were ready drawing their weapons they also charged at the ratman turning this clean and peaceful spot of the forest into a bloody field of slaughter.

I didn't just stand there either and commanded the girls to start fighting too not too far away I could see hundreds of ratman sprinting to us at front of this group was dakiro shouting out commands.

The lamia were cornered our numbers were also overwhelming so I didn't doubt to the slightest bit that we would lose this confrontation.

-Hiyaaa !

The leader of the lamia shouted immediately swinging her sword at the ratman and with a single swing she was able to behead 3 ratman at the same time showing her prower's as a leader,but unfortunately she also knew that they were in a disadvantage they wouldn't last long even if their troops were more skilled and powerful then the ratman since the numbers were just too huge to make up with skill on top of that there was another problem she couldn't just overlook.

The girls they were already going into action,blasting their way through the formation of the lamia fighting fierce and without a stop cutting down one lamia after another while guarding each others back.

The lamia couldn't contest such strength and were starting to get cornered every second by it the ratman were annoying with their numbers,but they weren't strong enough to really contest with the lamia even in this current situation,without the girls that powering through the state of the battle would have been completely different most probably on the lamias side.

-Get out of the way !

-She is going to slash !

-No,don't run you idiots block it !

Even though the lamia were seriously suppressed right now they were still struggling very mightily holding their ground their numbers weren't decreasing as much as the ratman were because of their scales and hard skin their were also very slippery dodging strikes through unimaginable angles poisoning their weapons with their teeth and weakening the ratman through a simple scratch their tails were evenly as annoying launching the ratman with one swipe or strangling them to death.

They were truly a very strong species with a lot of tricks up their sleeves and also natural disposition cunning and hard.

-We have to end this right now...

I mumbled to myself telling hobusaku to follow me into the fight.

I didn't just stand and watch,but also started launching my own spells avoiding area of effect spells to not damage our own troops and rather focusing on pin pointed strikes launching at the lamia and freezing them on the spot or pierce them with my condensed ice.

-You bastard !

The leader of the lamia roared she was now very furious cutting down 5 ratman in her walk as she charged at me with the intent to kill,I wasn't nervous and simply raised my palm shooting off a towards the charging lamia watching her as she dodged the ball of water expertly not even bothered by it.

(Clap)

Seeing her dodge I clapped my hand for a moment as I concentrated on the making it immediately stop in mid air as the water started to bubble cool and finally explode into frozen shards.

-ughhh warhhh...

The lamia leader cried out as she was hit by the frozen water ball shards her beautiful green scales were now glossed with intense frost making them look all foggy and glittery even though it didn't look very harmful the shards were actually very cold condensed so much that they looked like shards,but were actually super cold liquid covering the lamia leader on the back as she collapsed down with a incredibly pained look on her face.

The feeling one has when hit by such attack is painful comparable to burning itself,but in a rather more extreme fashion as if thousand needles were piercing you without stop until you couldn't feel it anymore the basic frost bite pretty much,but just more worse.

Stepping forward I stared at the female lamia on the ground she was growling and enduring the behind on her back,but it was obviously get increasingly problematic since the cold wasn't giving up,it wouldn't since I was still keeping it that cold penetrating her skin even through her insides into her blood flow to spread her entire body and turn it into ice.

She knew that I was approaching and raised her head glaring at me hobusaku who was standing by my side stomped at the lamia on the ground keeping her down with her leather boot which only served to piss off the lamia even more,but also giving her a small sense of dread that was now spreading through her body,

-It seems like you are going to turn into food instead isn't it ?

I said coldly my words served as more fuel to anger as she spat out.

-You..you don't even understand what you are doing you idiot ! You will pay for this ! The demon king will know of this and when he does he will execute every single one of you !

The lamia shouted now the cold was already spreading onto half of her face the time it took to spread was unusually fast,but I quickly understood the reason for that since snakes are naturally weak to the cold because they are cold blooded creatures themselves.

I didn't reply and simply stared at her not even sure what I should say to this...as expected ? Maybe ?

I looked at hobusaku nodding towards her I signaled her that I had enough of this she quickly caught on and moved her short sword swiftly immediately cutting the head off the lamia

I didn't look at her anymore and just stared at the blood battlefield in front of me,the lamia were just too busy to actually pay attention to their now dead leader fighting for their lives.

(BOOM)

just as I was thinking that it was over a giant explosion came forth killing both ratman and a few lamia,the explosion was huge and made me shocked for a moment as I looked towards where it came from...

-What is happening...

I murmured feeling surprise and shock spread through my body as I focused my sight towards the place where the explosion came from...flaming debris and smoke were rising everywhere making things difficult to see,but through all of that I noticed a person standing still not too far off from the large crater wearing a black hood and ominous thin clothing,but what really caught my attention was something different...

-Wings..

The back of that person had dark red wings sticking out seeing that made me very surprised and also tense as I remembered the last incident that happened with the winged woman...thats a succubi I knew.

Feeling a bit stunned I quickly turned towards the girls they were still busy fighting no,one suffered from any injuries or looked to be overly tired from the fight,from what I could see they had also stopped for a moment staring at the explosion confused.

-That person...

Hobusaku gasped a bit surprised the smoke was already settling slowly and hobusaku was already very good with her eyesight immediately spotting the winged woman that stood next to the crater,the other girls were also slowly starting to identify the person with ugly expressions on their faces.

-Hahaha ! I am very surprised I didn't think that my boring job to supervise this area would turn into something so unexpected !

The person wailed cheerily spreading her wings further and flapping them violently as she made her way up into the air hovering only 2 or 3 meters above ground looking at the bloodied field.

Her flap was strong,strong enough to blow away the huge black smoke her hood was also down revealing a striking beauty with black long hair and sky blue eyes the skin was fresh and smooth without any impurities present her curves were god made able to make a man mad just through one simple look at them.

I didn't stare for all too long since my uncomfortable feeling was much more higher then my desire to look.

-Wow you are really giving it your all ! It was fun to watch,but I think I should now start taking control again its a shame that a few of you just died,but don't worry the ratman are still here after we whip them into work we can kill them afterwards and be done with it ! thats why ratman and you hobgoblins don't even think about running or resisting if you don't want to get roasted that is...

The succubi threatened the way she talked and moved was very arrogant,but I could see that she had the power to back it up since the fist she was holding right now had a massive amount of mana pumped into it causing small flames sparks around her fist.

I wasn't sure what to do,but I knew that talking wasn't going to solve anything right now so instead I ordered some of the girls to attack that woman.

To my surprise hobura was already charging at her with her sword raised her eyes showed trace of hatred and anger with a very clear amount of blood thirst leaking out of her.

It was understandable hobura had a bad experienced with succubi on our last fight she couldn't do anything even after using her strongest attack,but now it was different.

(BOOM)

Another explosion was created as hobura slashed at the flying winged woman as she jumped at her.the winged woman still had that arrogant look on her face while not even looking at hobura and instead decided to meet the slash head on with her mana infused fist causing another large explosion to ocurre from the collision.

The girls only now seemed to have noticed hobura's sudden charge the collision caused another round of smoke to appears shielding our vision for only a few seconds until someone was launched out of the cloud.

It was the winged woman ! She was launched down onto the ground finally impacting on a boulder smashing it into hundred pieces as she lay there a bit shocked with her eyes wide...her mana infused fist was also bloody not very damaged,but you could see a gashing cut on the back of her hand losing blood,but also quickly regenerating back to normal.

(Whoosh)

From the last collision that caused the smoke cloud came a dry sound it was followed by heavy wind as the smoke was being forced back from the center also revealing the unhurt hobura holding her huge sword,she had used it as a fan and was now smiling gleefully towards her opponent...

Tables had changed.

The girls had evolved since the last fight and gained a huge bonus in both attributes and skills they weren't even comparable to the their last form when they were .They had changed they were now all .

-You filthy little...

The succubi growled with anger now finally coming back from her daze as she fully smashed the boulder bellow her with a heavy smash her eyes had flames ignited in them as she stared at hobura with a deathly glare.

Hobura wasn't bothered her eyes had firm and powerful resolve into them as she waved her sword around expertly smiling at the succubi as she invited her to fight.
