Chapter 272: Scheme Against Scheme, n Vs n, Who Will Be the Winner At Last?
Once the demons were shattered into pieces, and the mere living bunch of them were neglected by me, left to the crowd of yers behind, other demons started toe again, without any signs of fear or hesitation.
"So, you want to deplete my strength first?" I smirked, as I knew this would be the ideal strategy for my enemy, but he was doomed to fail.
"Walk forward," I ordered, as my two hands kept moving, sending one attack after another. I, out of curiosity, checked my hunger value, to find it doubled! That blessing effect wasn''t only limited on decreasing the consumption, it also doubled my hunger value, making it exceed six thousand points!
As for my consumption, each wave of my spear took out one point, and each wave of the sword took two points. That meant only one thing, I couldst for a very, very long time before I would need to take any pearls!
I had some leftovers from thest journey, and they were enough to make mest for a longer time.
However, as my enemy was acting smart, I nned to outsmart him! so, every time my hunger value reaches one hundred, I ingest one pearl, replenishing the lost value.
I didn''t need to do it, for sure, but I had to, for my n. I wanted my enemy not to suspect my real hunger value, so he would continue in his ns, and my n to capture him would seed.
And so, simply like that, the battle started.
I knew this war wouldn''t end until I went on that huge piece ofnd and conquered it. for a second I had this feeling that whatever this piece ofnd was from, it had some connection with the main sacrednd it came from, in some way.
So, I ordered my demon to walk forward, while Aria and others understood what I initially spoke of, and so they started to organize the normal yers, while opening the town gate and exit the town.
Behind me, lines of yers started to take shape, before they were organized into groups, each took the mission of finishing off random demons here and there, and dissecting them.
I had already asked for the hearts, and they took everything and left the hearts to me, giving them to Diana, who ignored anything and marched behind me, side by side with Rog, and other top yers of my guild.
I noticed them, but said nothing. I knew their intentions were pure, and I appreciated it, but for this battle, I was the only one needed, and they had nothing in their hands to do.
The more I got near that piece ofnd, the more my demon found it hard to advance. My enemies understood my intentions, so they made sure the demons never ceased toe out from that ind.
My demon walked to a certain point, and then stopped. It was really hard to press forward anymore.
Seeing this, and the distance between me and that ind was still vast, I smiled. I wasn''t out of options from the beginning, but I wanted to make sure I needed to use my other solution.
Because this solution would be very costly for me!
"Show steele!"
The moment I said so, the stele appeared in front of me. As I suspected, the stele was there, and so I could easily buy and sell whatever I wanted.
But I was here for selling, not buying!
Just as I opened it, I saw something that made my heart rage in anger! There was a bounty on my head posted there! I didn''t have time to waste here, but I rapidly read the bounty details.
"Wanted dead: yer Agatha.
Price: one billion gold coins.
Information: yer Agatha world would be invaded soon, if you are interested, you can join up at the gathering locations that are posted in each sacrednd''s stele."
I read this and suddenly my mind got frozen instantly! That wasn''t true, right? Demons couldn''t use stele, so the only exnation was for the wolves'' agents to make this bounty.
One billion gold coins wasn''t a small sum for mere yers, but I doubted masters would be enticed by this. At this moment I suddenly got hit by it.
"Diana!" I shouted, as I started selling the pearls I had in my possession, while waving the sword and spear over the demons, continuing to kill them.
"Yes," Diana replied as she moved to stand beside my demon.
"Come here," I said. when she reached me, I said something to her, then took all the hearts she had, before I started selling them again.
I needed to amass a huge amount of money, especially when I noticed the presence of these bounties on my head.
This wasn''t a simple move as I expected, and this bounty was the assassination I was waiting for.
So, they were waiting for my energy to be depleted, before they started moving the yers here. That was a brilliant n, indeed, but I also had another brilliant n too.
For it to seed, I had to dy the moves I had nned for. So, I used my time mainly to sell pearls, while storing up massive amounts of gold coins.
After half an hour, Diana returned, and as she did, I had a massive amount of gold coins transferred into my game ount,ing from Lady Nada.
"Great!" I muttered, as this was something I waited for.
I then started to focus on the fight more, while taking out my prison artifact, and storing my spear away. This fight wasn''t suited for it, after all, as it was mainly a single target weapon, not like this AOE killer sword.
As I took my prison out, I immediately gave the order.
''Trap every demon here.''
''Done.''
The artifact sound replied instantly, with the disappearance of all the demons in the area, even those which were being killed by the yers. This sudden move startled everyone, but I didn''t care, as I waited for new demons to appear, and then absorbed them again.
My wealth was now so fat that I could handle one million times the numbers of these demons! I had billions of gold coins in my possession, so how could these demons stop me now?
My fight, my n was starting to get form, finally.
