10 The war on three fronts 2/?

A tall black wall consumed my sight as I teleported into the location, I stole from my Brother's Oni, atop the wall stood nearly 200 troops, most had cheap bows and arrows, ones that wouldn't be able to kill a great Jagras let alone me.

"Raj as we practised, you will enter the shadows and wait for the elites to leave the rubble before picking them off."

The young maid? nodded her head as she utilised the reason we are late, I had spent two days, a solid 48 hours teaching Raj how to utilise the Nargacuga Mutagen, to the point where it did something I wasn't aware they could do, the Mutagen evolved from a regular Nargacuga into Lucent Nargacuga, long story short? She can turn invisible for 10 minutes at the cost of a large amount of stamina.

Pulling out two large jars filled with a deep red liquid, I handed one over to Raj who drank it instantly, I then drank my jar, before taking out two similar jars filled with an orange liquid and repeating the process.

Power from the liquid flowed into my body, taking a deep breath, I nodded to Raj, this is it, my freedom will be earned here, I will be able to walk free.

<3rd Person, Pov>

Samuel slowly walked towards the imposing wall, it dwarfed him in all aspects possible, the trudge through the snow-covered plains allowed the young man to think about his plans once he was finally free. What would he do? Settle down and prepare for the arrival of 666? No that was never his style, would he build a kingdom?

Maybe, however, the one thing he knew for certain is that his cat companion would be there by his side, he would make sure of it, the one person he could trust.

Standing a few hundred feet away, Samuel gazed up at the troops staring back at him, a long row of enemies, ready to be reaped and devoured. In the centre of the line stood 5 people, 4 clearly different to the Oni grunts and one he vowed to kill before he vanished, a look of disgust covered his face, and a small predatory smile approached the corners of his lips, his mother was here.

"I wish to parlay, who here can represent you?"

Samuel shouted, in response, the four foreigners leapt off the wall as did his mother, moving towards him with confident strides, the five of them warily looked around, "Where is your companion?"

A man dressed in beautiful golden armour asked, the man, tall with flowing white hair despite his young age, postured like a God looking at an ant. His blades shaped like lightning bolts, a clear ode to his father, Samuel looked him up and down before looking towards the auburn-haired man in the centre, "Why are you Greeks interfering in our battle? I have no animosity with you, if you fight here, I will not stop until your pantheon has been devoured, it is in my nature."

The Auburn-haired man laughed, "You are confident in yourself, your Mother and her troops may be afraid of you but we are not, I have trained to fight the Mythical creatures of Greece, you are not my match."

Samuel smiled, "I have been told that all of my life, accept the Oni, without them, you are weak, you will never be my match. I have no use for a weak son, I will not accept a weak son as my heir. Common threats that were spoken by those that need to hide behind them as they are too weak to act and so hide behind words. You retreat now Greeks or you will be treated as my enemy, your choice?"

Samuel could feel it, the desire of the Elder Dragon eater stirring within him, his very being demanding he feasts soon, devours, grows and conquers.

Uknown to the young man, an ethereal black dragon began to form behind him, the shadow of Nergigante, staring down at the five, a smile rising to its face as it let out a deafening roar, the earth responded to the dragon's scream, shaking heavily the frosty plains began to rip apart, Samuel just stared forwards, his eyes not leaving his mother's face as he waited for the Greeks.

"We can't step down I'm afraid, Lord Eros has promised to save the Oni for the queen's hand, you must die here boy."

Samuel simply sighed, "You have 5 minutes to return to the wall, if you are still here I will strike you down, I called Parlay, it is only fair I let you return to your defences."

A scowl covered the face of Zeus' son, a mere boy speaks to Demi-God as if they are worthy of his pity? Before the Demi-God even realised what he was doing, an arc of lighting left his blades, striking Samuel in the chest.

*Divine blessing Lvl 5 activated, damage reduced by 60%*

Samuel stood still as the lightning struck his armour 'This is the power of Zeus' son? A let down'

He thought,

"You actively attacked me under the established rules of Parlay, established by the various factions to prevent unnecessary death. Raj if you will."

Before the Greeks or Aria could react two long draconic blades tore through the chest of the white-haired man, the blades were removed quickly before they were rammed through his heart and head instead.

As soon as the cat-girl appeared, she disappeared back into the shadows, Samuel turned to the group of four, "3 minutes left then I'm going to start attacking, choose your next actions wisely."
