Chapter 866 War Begins

Vibrant atmosphere of Dushkarbor's world turned eerie and silent.

Despite the sun still being up, everything began turning dark due to the cloud coverings.

It was just a matter of time before not just Lith, but even the residents of the world began having an uncomfortable feeling.

Everybody could guess that it was coming.

The demon invasion… It really was coming.

Loud trumpets made a powerful sound, echoing in every person's ears. This was the signal to prepare for impact.

All the residents of the world ran inside the fortresses created, the troops took their respective formation, and the generals positioned themselves to command the various different squads.

At the highest point of Dushkarbor's watchtower, Lith sat with Solina and Idina. Joselyn, Milia, and Lydia were gone to lead the people and do the final preparations.

Chonky boi was sitting beside Lith and eating some candies. He was gazing at the sky for a while and kept to himself.

For the first time, even Chonky boi was serious and this showed how important things seemed.

Looking at the petite Solina, Lith asked, "Has Joselyn deal with the Northern Territory?"

Solina nodded her head. "The Northern Territory is now as secure as ever with not one, but three monarchs placed there."

"Good. What about the Eastern side?"

It was Idina who replied this time, saying, "Occupied properly. I got news from Lydia about it just this morning."

Lith nodded again. Everything was in place finally and the world was prepared.

Solina and Idina were responsible for intelligence and logistics.

Solina was capable enough to handle huge amounts of information without getting stressed. All news was to be forwarded to her and through her, they would go to respective people.

This back and forth thing required great mental fortitude, but Lith had trained her enough for it.

Idina was supposed to provide all the necessary resources, equipment, and troops to the ones in need.

Lith discussed with the two on this topic while waiting for the demons to initiate the attack.

While he was doing so, his gaze fell on Chonky boi who was staring at a place blankly.

Lith ignored it at first, but after a few more glances, felt that something was wrong. This dude had been too quiet for a while.

"Is something wrong, Big Chonk?" Lith asked the chubby kid, trying to lighten things up.

Solina and Idina almost spit the tea they were drinking as they heard this comment from their master, but controlled themselves.

Tea wasn't available in this world until two years ago.

When Lith went on a world tour to defeat the monarchs, he ended up finding tea leaves in many places and started the tea culture.

Tea was an essential for snack times, formal meetings, and hang outs. It was a versatile drink that was greatly in need.

Chonky boi, hearing Lith's comment, turned to look at him. For the first time with great seriousness, he said,

"Big bro, you should run away."

Solina and Idina showed surprised faces while Lith chuckled in response.

Solina and Idina were surprised by the fact that Chonky boi was not offended and saying some good things for the first time while Lith was chuckling due to watching him seem so concerned.

In these many years, this chubby kid had totally accepted him as his big bro and there was no malice within him.

Lith couldn't understand how a demon could have such a change in heart, but it was a good thing nonetheless.

He patted Chonky boi's head and said, "Don't worry, I won't be harmed."

Chonky boi knitted his brows and said while puffing up his already puffed up cheeks, "Humph! Have you seen your army? Have you seen your people? All are weak! You'll end up losing!"

"Hahaha!" Lith laughed out loud hearing that, making Solina and Idina concerned while Chonky was confused.

Lith got up from his seat, showcasing his tall figure to the three.

He walked to the railings at the side and leaned on them, gazing at the landscape in front.You'll discover the inception of this content at n0v@lbin★

Solina, Idina, and Chonky could see Lith's wide back and this brought a sense of safety to them for all the unknown reasons.

Lith seemed really reliable and someone who had the capability to protect.

Why such a feeling suddenly occurred within them, they didn't know.

Solina and Idina didn't overthink much on this as they simply thought of Lith to be powerful, but Chonky was greatly surprised.

He was surprised to the point of being shocked because he was not some random nobody. He was a mighty ruler and for him to feel safe due to some random person… It was really strange.

In the past few years, Lith had surprised Chonky many times. It was baffling and made him wonder how such a thing could even happen.

Looking at the marching troops to the walls of the fortress, Lith said, "All these years of work wasn't for naught, Big Chonk. It happened for a reason."

Among the marching troops, there was one clumsy teenager who couldn't get his things together and was a mismatch while walking.

Shifting his gaze to another place, in an open tavern, Lith could see a petite teenage girl cleaning alcohol glasses with a serious look on her doll-like face.

Chonky, not knowing the thought process behind Lith's said words, replied, "Big bro, don't tell me I didn't want you before."

Lith turned around and smiled in a gentle manner. "Don't worry, I won't."

He wouldn't blame anybody because he was confident enough in knowing that such a situation would never arise.

Chonky shrugged in response and got back to eating candies. If worse came to worst, he was ready to risk it all and run away with Lith to save him. He was capable enough to do this.

With the conversation on this topic coming to an end, Solina tuned to Lith and asked, "Master, what about—"

BOOOOOM!

A huge explosion occurred nearby that caused a big tremor to occur.

The entirety of Dushkarbor shook along with the watchtower Lith was on.

Lith's expression turned serious while Chonky sighed and thought, 'Idiots.'

Chonky really wished the demons would not initiate an attack, but he also knew they wouldn't stop as well.

Their world was absolutely desolate and they needed resources urgently. They could easily do trades and whatnot, but it was he who suggested they attack and not do that.

Chonky was the one to blame, but also wasn't. Since he was absent, those guys were free to do whatever they wanted and the best course of action they could take was to do some trades till his absence and attack only when he was present.

But the damage was done now and the demons were here. Chonky could do nothing but watch and see what the war would lead to.

Lith on the other hand was momentarily surprised with the sudden explosion and tremor, but readily stabilized himself and looked at the distance where the explosion had occurred.

Through his impressive vision, he saw a group of giant demons with multiple horns on their heads shout and run towards the fortress.

They possessed heavy stone clubs that could extend at will.

The moment those giants covered a few meters, a loud explosion occurred once again, totally shattering a few giants into pieces.

Noticing their allies die, the giants roared in anger and charged faster at the fortress walls.

Lith looked at them calmly while Chonky clicked his tongue and thought, 'Baat! Dumbass big bro shouldn't have made them know that he knew their spawn points.'

"Sixteen Giants are charging from Southwest and there seems to be a swarm of locusts coming in from Northeast." Solina suddenly said.

Lith turned to Northeast in response and saw a big swarm of black locusts flying towards the fortress.

He let out a visible sigh when noticing this and said, "Make the Fly Squadron handle the locusts."

Idina nodded this time and rushed down the watchtower.

There were Fly, Underground, Water, Fire, and various other squadrons all over the world.

The naming was lame, but it was to the point.

Fly squads would handle anything that was in the air, undergoing squads were few in number but were there to handle anything that came from within the ground.

Nobody here knew about demons more than Lith and Chonky.

Chonky was an immature kid and was playing his part to seem like one. He would give out no information.

But, Lith being the lover of the Demon Queen herself, knew the ins and outs of demons and what all types were there.

Demons had the most diverse variety of creatures and to handle them a lot of different tactics had to be used.

These squads were just the tip of the iceberg Lith had planned and there was so much more present.

Moments after Idina's disappearance, Lith could see people rushing on the walls of the fortress equipped with various gears.

These people gathered around a machine that seemed like a canon and pointed it at the locusts.

"ON COUNT OF THREE!"

"THREE!"

"TWO!"

Their loud shout could be heard by Lith from the watchtower.

Right as the countdown finished:

WOOOOOOSSSSHHHH!

Flames erupted from the cannon and burned engulfed the whole locust swarm.

The locusts buzzed and writhed in pain. Foul burning smell could be heard as they died and suddenly,

Lith knitted his brows and felt a chill all over his body. In his mind he exclaimed, 'Fuck!', while Chonky shook his head and thought with a sigh, 'It's over, big bro.'
