Empress' Evolution 44 Goddammi

This the statement of both the Pixies, and the Ogres. And as far as the Elders and the Leaders of each race are concerned, the development of the village could wait, the enemies must be decimated, only then would peace come back!

Everyone knew what the right course of action is to be taken, that is to fight back the invaders. They do not want humans tainting their land, taking their people, and slaying their kin.

The people of the Forest of Beast is being threatened, and right now, instead of asking Chief what is the best course of action, the epic-tiered Ogres and Pixies remained seated, waiting for Lilith to speak; even Chief was with them.

Lilith had already been patched up, she sat on a pillow made of beast hide that is both fluffy and soft. Lilith was satisfied with their reaction and she is beginning to nod at their desires to fight, but so, their next action can only be one...

"We will take back the Sections 5 and 6 from the humans."

That simple statement granted Chief and the rest untold confidence. She did not say they will go to war, she said they'll take back their territory. They may fight, but the tension in the room eased out when the idea of war was taken away.

The two races had just fought one another, if they suddenly fought in a war together without training, it is unknown what will happen to them. Thus, the next best thing to do is take their attention away from war and into fighting for what is right.

Lilith cleared her throat and had one of the Ogres pull out the map she had drawn out. The map is detailed and is easier to the eyes compared to the one before.

'I am becoming a better cartographer.'

Lilith cleared her throat, she stood up and looked at the map. The Ogres kept silent as Lilith began walking up and down the large map. It was nothing new to them.

However, for the Pixies, it was a weird sight.

'What is the Priestess doing?' Luna who was beside Dhampy sitting in a corner asked the one known as the big sis.

Dhampy did her best to answer the said question.

'She is planning, the boss is the greatest strategist of the Ogre Race, she can turn any kind of situation around if it is her.'

'Really? She's that brilliant?'

"Yes, and the only reason why we beat your race is because of her strategies and precise implementation of different tactics. There is one time when she invited me to go hunt a dungeon, but she soloed it despite being several levels below which is an impossible feat, do you see the brilliance of the boss?'

'Yes, yes, please, tell me more.'

Lilith could hear their ramblings from the side, she felt the need to bash their heads but she didn't because interactions like this are rather useful.

'It improves my fame and the interaction of those two, that's two bird with one stone right there.'

It has to be noted that it was Dhampy who killed the Pixie Lord, and seeing Luna taking the initiative to talk to Dhampy was a good thing, however, it is still annoying.

"Dhampy, Luna."

"Yes!"

"Get out."

"yes."

Lilith couldn't concentrate so she had them go outside. Inside, Lilith is planning how to counteract the d.a.m.n humans, they are cunning and disgustingly deceptive creatures, they would use everything to win and call it tenacity; she should know she was one in the past after all.

Because of that, Lilith must find a way on how to drive them back, for now, an all-out war is impossible because the earlier enemies were already so strong for her and her followers that it was disgusting to watch.

Thus, Lilith will use a tactic she frequently does. She smiled as her mind concocted a devious plan.

'Hehehe, this time, blood really will flow.'

While Lilith concocts the perfect plan to drive the humans away from their territory, the two ousted daemons were left discussing numerous things with one another.

Their discussion started towards Lilith, the boss and the Priestess of everyone, but soon enough, their conversation topic derailed and Dhampy being so straightforward that she was asked a question that rocked Luna.

"Do you not hate me for killing your father?"

Dhampy is a professional, killer. When she kills, then that is it nothing is ever uncovered. But, this is the second time when she will work with someone she had killed someone's family.

She had done something similar before, though she did not know that she killed that person's sister, she ended up getting betrayed in the end. If it was up to her she would have killed Luna without hesitation, but the decision is not something she does, it is all up to the Saint-like Lilith.

So, Dhampy had to ask it else she would not be able to trust her back to Luna. Her eyes that are as black as the abyss stared at Luna's whose eyes glittered with the star-like glimmer it had.

"I killed your father, beheaded him and then presented him to you. Surely you hold some resentment towards me, correct? If you do, tell me now so I will not worry, cut me up till a hundred wounds appear, will that be enough as repentance?"

Luna looked at Dhampy's expressionless face that spokes of complex emotions, it was a weird thing to see but in the end, Luna smiled at her question, "No, I do not resent you. Nor do I have anything against you, and I do not want to cut you up."

The words uttered by Luna made Dhampy look at her with an indiscernible expression. Luna should be angry at her, so why is that she smiles? Deception? That must be it, right? So, she must be lying to lower her guard.

"You are lying; if you are trying to lower my guard and strike me down later, it would be for nought for I will still be able to fend you off then. Let us end this hate by letting you harm me right now."

With her eyes, widen, Luna shook her head and chortled a little, "The Pixie Lord, my father was a man will die even if you didn't kill him. He will die one way or the other and despite what he had done to me, where she forced me to kill a Silberofer to become the Moon Liwa.

"In all truthfulness, I liked my father despite his shortcomings. He forced our people to do what they do not want, and made decisions that took the life of others; all of that may make him look like a useless lord, but I know that he did all that to give the Pixies a better life. And besides, with his death came the unification of the two races, and in the end, with you granting his death, you managed to fulfil his wishes. I have no intention of hating the benefactor of my father and the Pixie Race."

Only now did Dhampy realize how mature this Moon Liwa of the Pixies was, despite being no older than 12 or somewhere along those lines. They proceeded to walk, but Dhampy just had to ask one last thing.

"Are you sure you don't want to get back at me?"

"Just protect if I am in danger someday, oh yeah, where are we going?"

"Well, my little sis is still bedridden after the attack on the Neutral Area."

"...Do you want to take revenge by taking my hands?"

"No, the boss is going to be angered."

"What if she won't?"

"...I'll think about it."

The last exchanged caused Luna to shudder for a moment before smiling as she followed the one known as the Big Sis of the Ogres.

Night

Hours pa.s.sed and Lilith looked at the map, there are now two 'points' in the plan to reclaim Section 5 and 6. But, all of these relied on getting the upper hand so Lilith is contemplating something important.

'We need to make a move before the Humans make theirs, if they get the upper hand, we'll lose the Section 5 and we will be forced to escape to Section 4 and go into hiding. By then, it is going to be hard pushing them back, this is a mess.'

Then, just as he was thinking of important matters, it happened.

Boom! Swoosh! Clang!

The sound the ground exploding and the wind whirling terrified Lilith and almost made her hide underneath something!

'What the h.e.l.l? Are the humans here already? They move quick, tsk, we need to retreat!'

She looked around and the epic-tiered are already heading outside, Lilith clicked her tongue and head outside to give out the orders of retreat.

BooM! Swoosh ~!

As she finally got out there, she saw it, the two people fighting.

Holding their weapons in front of them, they aimed to fatally injured one another, at least one of them did.

It was the sight Lilith didn't think she would see and as her speechlessness became irritation, her blood boiled as she shouted in anger.

"ENOUGH! SYLVA, DHAMPY, WHAT THE f.u.c.k ARE YOU TWO DOING!?"
