63 Chapter 61: Thunderous Applause

At the dead of night, Tione appeared at the entrance of the dungeon with a small blush on her face.

"Mister, is this the wheat manor?" Tione stumbled a bit, as if she was pleasantly drunk.

"N-no ma'am, this is the entrance to the dungeon." The guards gulped at the sight of her.

Chocolate skin that looked like shiny bronze as light hit it.

A tight body that is the result of superhuman athleticism.

Large busts and supple breasts that is only hidden by a piece of cloth.

It is of the opinion of the masses that amazons are built to be seductive. It just came naturally to them.

"Then~ can you help me?" Tione batted her eyelashes at them and the guards had lewd grins on their faces.

'Tche, disgusting filth. I should gouge their eyes out.' Tione thought in rage.

"Y-yes, let us help you get to your destination, if you help us get to heaven too." The guards approached her and Tione sprayed something on them when they got close.

"I feel dirty, lecherous fucks." Tione spat on the ground as she thought of stomping their heads in.

"Calm down sis, it's just a simple mission." Tiona prevented her from doing so.

"Still, Perseus does have a lot of talents." Tione looked at the bottle she had on hand.

"Well, she does have mixing as a DA too. Asfi-chan can easily make something like this too." Tiona nodded in satisfaction at its effects.

"They're out for the count now." Tione put on an earpiece.

"This is bonbon one, Percy how copy?" Tione contacted Asfi.

"This is Percy, loud and clear bonbon one." Asfi replied.

"Guards are down, proceed with the operation, over." Tione scowled at the filthy guards on the ground.

"Roger that, squad Mercury en route to exfil. ETA 5 minutes." Asfi looked behind her and she nodded at her familia.

"Emperor, this is bonbon two. Prepare for exfil, the coast is clear." Tiona contacted Lars as he could move large objects easily.

"Isn't this kind of cool? We're like super spies or something!" Tiona was giddy, almost jumping around like the energizer bunny.

"Hah, be quiet bonbon two. The operation is ongoing." Tione sighed at her.

Guarding the entrance to the dungeon, the Hermes familia came from different directions and they arrived one by one.

"Squad Mercury is ready for exfil, where's emperor and Monster ops: Neutralization?" Asfi asked, a bit jittery.

After all, they're going to smuggle monsters. They might be xenos for them, but to others not so much.

"We're here, exit at different gates." Lars took out some large boxes and the xenos entered them.

They waited a couple of moments and the other squad also arrived.

"The justice league is here." Alise grinned at them and the Astraea familia also arrived.

"Un, they're trusted throughout Orario, we'll have a better time exiting through the gates." Asfi nodded.

The Ganesha familia are like the police force of Orario. And the Astraea familia is the equivalent of the swat team.

They wouldn't be stopped at all by the former if they wish to go outside Orario.

"Sage, this is emperor." Lars contacted Fels and the sage already talked with Ouranos. The head of the guild informed Ganesha about their operation.

"Everything is all green, Emperor. The Ganesha familia will not stop squad Mercury." Fels gave the go and Lars nodded at Asfi's team.

Everybody went to the gates of Orario, still anxious about it all.

They're risking a lot. And everything will go to shit if they're caught.

The Hermes familia sighed in relief though, the Ganesha familia's gate guards let them pass after seeing their emblem.

"Phew, that was nerve wracking... But this device sure is amazing... We can never cooperate this smoothly and quickly without it." Asfi wanted it really bad.

"Isn't Lars awesome!?" Tiona puffed her nonexistent chest in pride.

"Tiona, why are you shouting out Lars' name here in the open?" Airmid glared at her.

"Ahh, sorry..." Tiona rubbed her head sheepishly.

"Come on, let's go to Telskyura." Lars gestured for them to start their journey.

He then busted out large 4x4's. With Asfi's metalworking, she was able to make the parts for the engine easily.

And Airmid enchanted it so it could act in one full piece.

"Too bad the engine's quiet, but it's extremely efficient for offroad." Lars made them get in and they started driving off.

__Babel__

"My, oh my~ what is it did I just saw?" Freya smiled in amusement.

"Ottar, what did you see?" Freya asked her captain and he was a bit shocked too. His cute ears that was out of place due to his huge body twitched.

"Those monsters... They are intelligent, my lady. They followed instructions to a tee." Ottar furrowed his brows.

"So I wasn't seeing things... Hmm, just what is happening with Lars and his group?" Freya licked her lips.

She hasn't been excited like this in years. Even the princess she got interested in for a fleeting moment was like a rock in comparison to the gem she found.

"Commanding intelligent monsters. Strength that does not match his level. And most of all, I cannot see his soul." Freya shuddered in delight.

"Ahhh~ How I wish to see what his essence entails! I wish to wrap it around me! I'm sure it will bring me ecstasy!" Freya fidgeted around.

"Leave me, Ottar. I would like to be alone." Freya said with urgency.

"Yes, my lady." Her most loyal child bowed as he exited her chamber.

"Now... This will do, my Odr. But I have been waiting for years already." Freya's eyes glowed and she was getting impatient.

The only reason she didn't make a move was due to Demeter's influence, combined with his friendship with Loki's child.

It would certainly lead to a domino effect that might just destroy Orario's top familias.

But her reasoning is starting to waver. As a goddess of war, she does not care if she goes to battle for her Odr.

__To Telskyura__

"So this is the surface?" Lyd was one of the chosen xenos that got to come with them.

"Uwaaah, are those the stars?" Ray's eyes shone and Lars couldn't help but look at the scene warmly.

This is what they've been yearning for after all. But it wasn't the time to move out yet.

And they've already taken a huge risk just to get a small group of them outside.

"Don't get used to it though, savor it now." Lars reeled them in and they nodded.

"How do we do this, Lars?" Asfi asked him and he took out a few sticks of dynamite.

"What is that?" They looked at it curiously and Lars smirked. The xenos didn't know what it was because he tested it outside.

"These, are little things that go boom. Much stronger than fire stones, I'd say that they're 5 times stronger by weight." Lars smirked.

"W-what!? 5 times!?" Asfi was shocked to the core.

"I need it." Lyra looked at it with fervor. She loves bombs after all.

"Don't give it to Lyra, she'll blow everything up." Kaguya deadpanned at the Pallum.

"I need it." Lyra felt the sticks of dynamite whisper to her.

"That's really dangerous..." Alise couldn't help but remember what happened in the lower floors back then.

"Alise, don't worry. Lars won't use it for evil purposes." Ryuu rubbed her back and Alise nodded.

"Yeah, you're right..." She smiled and Lars fidgeted around.

"You're going to make me blush." Lars acted shy and they snorted at him.

"We'll break down their walls. And the xenos will barricade in front of Telskyura. Trust me, they will never break through." Lars smirked.

"I hope you're right, amazons are ferocious." Kaguya winced, thinking of a horde of high level amazons running at them.

And they do not want a lot of casualties at all. So it's much harder to fight.

"Ray will be checking out the city for us. The goblins will then scurry towards the walls and plant these." Lars went through the plan.

"I NEED IT!" Lyra tried to get them, but she was stopped by Kaguya.

"Stop being difficult!" Kaguya put her in a chokehold and Lyra was sent to dreamland.

"Was that necessary?" Ryuu winced. "You get a Pallum that really wants something to calm down." Kaguya snorted.

"Okay, we're about to arrive. Let's stop nearby and wait for night time." Lars could see the city.

But it was almost dawn. And a night raid was much easier for them.

Especially for the xenos who could see through pitch darkness much more easily.

Adventurers could do it as well, but their night vision isn't as good.

Everyone started to set up camp and Lars called the leaders to his tent so they could debrief.

"Okay, everybody. This is a map of Telskyura that I got while travelling outside of Orario." Lars took out the map.

He then formed stone nendroids of the leaders.

"Uwaah! As expected of Lars, you can capture the beauty and cuteness of this Alise." She wanted to poach them.

"I'll give them to you later." Lars smiled wryly at her antics.

"See, we have five 1st class adventurers. You guys will be the vanguard and squad leaders." Lars gave them troops to command.

"Lyra will be your tactician and supreme commander." Lars pointed at Lyra and she nodded.

After all, Alise might be their captain. But Lyra just has a better tactical mind. Living a hard life had its perks.

"How about us, Lars-chi?" Lyd raised his hand and Lars was about to get to them.

"Ray will be our eyes, codename Osiris. She will tell us everything that is happening with a bird's eye view." Lars started explaining their roles.

"Now this device will surely show how overpowered it is." Asfi can't imagine fighting a group with that much of an advantage.

Information is power, especially in a war. And someone that could convey everything that's happening in real time is beyond busted in battle.

"Lyd, you will lead the bombing squad and plant the bombs in front of their walls. You'll be our sign, detonate them when Ray gives you the signal." Lars moved their pieces towards the walls.

"Ray, you will be their support. Guide them towards the least populated wall." Lars instructed and she nodded seriously.

"Who will infiltrate the place?" Kaguya asked, as an assassin, her mind went to that immediately.

"I will, I need to talk with Kali as well." Lars squinted his eyes.

"So our team will be going in?" Tione furrowed her brows.

But she thought that Argana and Bache are still in Orario, which was fortunate.

They were genuine level 6 warriors that are bred for pure battle. Those two are at the top of the top in strength.

"Belnas and Elnea will fight us. Airmid I guess will be with the vanguard outside?" Tione wondered.

"Yes, Airmid is our paladin who heals. And she's specialized for this kind of warfare." Lars nodded at her.

"Then I'll wait for Ray's comms. I'll use Mus mine to make a minefield." Lyra smirked and Lars smiled.

"Right in one." Lars gave her a thumbs up and they started preparing.

Lars began taking out the weapons that the xenos will use. Machine guns of all kinds were being loaded with belts of ammo.

"What is that?" Alise asked and Lars fired shots at a tree, eviscerating it.

"T-that's... Dangerous." Alise gulped, she was able to see the bullets. But they were too fast to evade. Especially when they travelled that quickly.

"So it's effective on 1st class adventurers huh?" Lars smirked and he won his gamble.

"Just you wait when dozens of these babies are fired all at once." Lars grinned.

"Lars, please don't aim it at their torsos..." Alise looked to be begging.

"Don't worry, I've already briefed the xenos to aim at their legs. Airmid can patch them up real quick after that." Lars patted her head.

"Thank you..." Alise nodded at him with a smile.

__Night__

"This is Osiris, how copy?" Ray was wearing a black outfit to cover her vibrant colors.

"This is pink loli, loud and clear Osiris." Lyra grinned.

"Reporting, the west wall does not have many guards." Ray could see Telskyura in its entirety.

The south was the main gate and the country was surrounded by large, stone formations.

They won't expect an attack from the other parts of the circular wall.

It was like a colosseum that doesn't have that much facilities inside its walls.

And the majority of the citizens lived outside, forming residential areas there.

As expected of a country that is filled with death battles. The center of the country is a huge colosseum.

"Predator, you heard Osiris. Plant the care packages." Lyra instructed Lyd's squad.

"Squad, move out." Lyd wore clothes the same color as the rocks around and their team sneaked around.

Not expecting any attacks at all, with Telskyura having a fierce reputation, the guards do not take their jobs seriously. If they even guarded their walls at all.

"The bomb has been planted, over." Lyd informed everyone.

"Then everything is set, give Telskyura a thunderous applause." Lars ordered and Lyd detonated the bombs.

A thunderclap resounded all throughout the country and everyone was awoken by the explosions.

Shockwaves made the rocks fly away and the squads were gobsmacked at the power of TNT.

"I really need to get my hands on that." Lyra's eyes shone with greed.
