Chapter 62: All Out Assault

Looking at the destruction that was caused, Lyra shook her head and she sobered up.

Using Mus mine, she planted land mines with her magic and the whole area at the west wall turned into a trap bonanza.

"Ranye! Toss the sticky bombs on the wall!" Lyra ordered and the arachne nodded.

The others lit the sticks of dynamite and Ranye manipulated her webs skillfully, sticking the bombs on the walls.

After a few seconds, the shellshocked amazons were treated to another string of explosions.

"The MON squad is awesome!" Lyra thought of numerous strategies with the xenos.

Too bad they couldn't carpet bomb the city. Casualties would appear in droves.

Telskyura's western wall turned into smithereens, a large opening was quickly made.

"We're under attack! Launch a counteroffensive!" A level 4 amazoness took the reigns as back up began to arrive.

"Ohh? As expected of Telskyura, they appeared pretty quickly." Lyra grinned.

"This won't be pretty." Ryuu thought that the minefield would take out a lot of their manpower.

"Amazing, we didn't even use any magic. Yet we broke through such a large wall with ease." Kaguya was impressed.

"That's Lars for you, someone that can definitely match my amazing self." Alise was feeling herself and they deadpanned at her.

The amazons charged and they looked absolutely ferocious.

Running at them with reckless abandon, wielding weapons of all kinds.

And they weren't weak at all, even though they didn't have any access to the dungeon.

The adventurers could only imagine how strong Telskyura would be if they have a dungeon right below them like Orario.

Explosions began to explode again, they weren't as strong as the bombs that Lars made, but they put a stop to their charge.

Telskyura's unstoppable looking charge towards them was halted immediately.

"Stop! The outside is booby trapped!" The level 4 amazoness had impressive vocal chords.

And everybody stopped on their tracks, stepping backwards.

"Ready your spears!" They weren't a world superpower for nothing, immediately changing to range attacks.

Adapting to the situation quickly. The xenos roared and they also charged forwards.

"What!? Monsters with armor and weapons!?" The standing army of Telskyura were in shock.

Spears and arrows flew and shield bearing hobgoblins stood in front.

"Ranye! Give them a boost!" Lyra ordered and the arachne's fingers and spider legs moved lightning quick.

Harnesses stuck onto the vanguard and they floated in the air at the right time. Blocking everything that was sent to them.

"Chargeee!" Lyra gave a battle cry and the whole vanguard stepped in.

"Agaris Alvesynth!" Alise charged headfirst, like a red comet that shone brightly in the night.

Kaguya and Ryuu were a blur, parrying down spears and javelins that were sent towards them like it was fired by a ballista.

"L-level 5! They're level 5!" The amazons' morale fell.

"Fight! We are amazons of Telskyura! We do not back down in a fight!" Their commander roared.

Living up to their name as women that fought fiercely, they met the Astraea familia head on ferociously.

Steel clashed against steel, but the level 5's were too much.

The middle guard also arrived and they started sniping the archers and spear throwers.

It was extremely effective, coupled with their amazing dynamic vision, they disarmed the amazons at the high ground.

But they were only a small group, compared to the amazons that started to swarm them like hornets.

The female warriors were in their home base after all.

"We've got you surrounded! You will inevitably tire! Surrender now!" Their commander tried to reduce the injuries.

And they respected the strength of the Astraea familia.

They will receive too many casualties if they fight three level 5's that were extremely skilled in fighting.

After all, the Astraea familia is hardened through the great feud of Orario.

Everyone saw wisps of light started to form and Airmid finished her chant.

"Daybreak!" Spears of light appeared in the sky and the amazons blinked dumbly.

The dark sky burned brightly like it was dawn. And green orbs of magic also formed behind the elf.

"Luminous wind!" Ryuu made her magic hover in the air.

Someone was also floating in the sky. The maiden of silence. Copying Lars' psychokinesis with her magic.

Forming vibrations below her in such rapid intervals that she managed to fly, albeit for a short time only, needing tons of focus.

"Silence, savages. Gospel." Alfia's magic crashed right towards the remaining walls and everything crumbled to pieces.

"Sorry, but we're not going to surrender without a fight!" Lyra grinned and Airmid put her raised hand down as a barrage of light fell down from the heavens.

__Telskyura, south gate__

Lars and the twin amazons walked up to the gate where they escaped from their home country.

They could still remember the time where Tiona spoke up and asked Kali to let them go.

And Tiona clenched her fists in anger upon remembering how easy it was to escape Telskyura.

"Ready to raise hell?" Lars asked the twins and they nodded. Raising their weapons.

Walking through the abandoned street, they made their way towards Kali's location.

Lars could smell her divinity, she was inside the colosseum.

Arriving at Kali's abode, Tione kicked down the door and they were met by a little girl that was wearing a mask.

"I did not expect this, Tiona, Tione. My children have grown well." Kali twirled her red hair as she smiled at them.

"Cut the crap, Kali. We aren't your children." Tione gritted her teeth, still remembering the death matches that changed her forever.

"Kali, we aren't here for pleasantries." Tiona got serious.

"Belnas, Elnea, how about we give them a proper Telskyuran greeting?" Kali could feel it, they were level 5.

And it was only proper to greet the ones who returned with a fight to the death.

"I'll leave them to you, Tiona, Tione." Lars nodded at them, trusting them to defeat their opponents.

"Hoh? You're Lars, aren't you? Argana and Bache reported your appearance to me." Kali grinned at him.

"Yes, I am. And you're Kali huh? I at least expected more." Lars looked at her up and down.

She frowned at him. "What do you mean by that, child?" Kali raised a brow.

"I mean, amazons are seductive right? Why are you a little girl? Damn, do you like men who love lolis in particular?" Lars scoffed.

"Insolent! Belnas, Elnea! I want them tied up and beaten nicely! Break their limbs." Kali shouted and Lars grinned.

The two level 5's went forward and they prepared for a fight.

Belnas was carrying scimitars while Elnea had a spear on hand.

The tall and muscular Belnas charged at Lars, aiming a swipe at his arms to literally disarm him.

Elnea then targeted his knees, wanting to break his kneecaps so he would get crippled more.

But he raised his arms and they suddenly stopped in front of him.

"They're your opponents." Lars threw Belnas to Tiona, while Tione got Elnea as her foe.

The twins then kicked them towards the middle of the colosseum.

"Beat her ass for me!" Tione shouted as they went towards the amazoness.

Lars walked up to Kali and she glared at him fierclessly.

'What is with this child? What was that?' Kali did not understand what just happened.

It looked like he just controlled her amazons and he threw them to the side like trash.

"Let us have a talk, Kali." Lars sat down in front of her, taking out a chair.

"I do not have anything to say to you." Kali was defiant. But not for long.

Lars raised a finger and he pointed downwards. "Grovel."

Kali suddenly felt an irresistible weight above her.

Groveling on the ground like a peasant, she tried to resist with all her might.

She broke into a cold sweat. Even gods can get afraid. And she could not understand what was happening.

"Answer me truthfully, your life depends on it." Lars raised her head with his boot, putting it under her chin.

"What is your purpose here in gekai?" Lars squinted his eyes and she frowned heavily.

"Why does it matter?" She gritted her teeth and he kicked her on the face lightly.

"That wasn't an answer." She was utterly flabbergasted, Kali spat out some teeth and blood as she looked at him in shock.

"Come on, I'm waiting." Lars stared at her coldly.

"I... I have to make my children strong, they're made in my image." Kali frowned.

'True...' Lars was surprised about that. "But you're a goddess of death and destruction. Why care about them?"

"It is for what's to come... My champion already lost her life a thousand years ago. My children cannot be weak against that." Kali furrowed her brows.

"Champion?" Lars raised a brow and Kali snorted.

"Evelda, the amazoness empress that fought the black dragon with Albert, Aria, and Celdia." Kali explained.

"They were strong, stronger than anyone. Only a few today can match their strength, even with the help of Falna. Yet they failed in their grand quest." Kali lamented.

"Only through battle will my children grow, those who fight for riches and prestige will never survive the time when it comes back.

My children fight for survival, they do not fight for honor, for wealth, for glory. And it will guarantee their existence here in gekai." Kali said calmly.

'True again...' Lars sighed. He already did beat her up a bit, so that was good payback for the twins.

"You wholeheartedly believe that huh?" Lars thought that Kali's type are the hard ones to handle.

Those with Machiavellian methods. She sacrifices the majority of the weak amazons in her own twisted love for them.

"What? You expect me to say that love conquers all? That friendship is the answer?" Kali scoffed in distaste.

"Huh? What the hell are you talking about? Miss me with that shit, I'm no idiot." Lars flicked her.

"You are plain stupid in my eyes, why not raise them to be as ferocious? Then send them to Orario like exchange students?" Lars sighed heavily.

Kali was being a fucking idiot, sacrificing amazons who are in his opinion, one of the strongest races in the world.

They could fucking kill monsters before they can even speak. The amazons are pure killing machines.

"What do you mean?" Kali was confused. She was too stuck in her methods.

"I mean, you've heard of Baldr's school district right? It's like that. Teach them here the essence of being an amazon, and let them rampage in the dungeon." Lars rolled his eyes.

"They will not only increase the economy, you will also have a lot more amazons running around. Look at what happened to Tiona and Tione.

Even Argana and Bache can't compare to them, they're level 5 while only being 17. Then, you cycle around your citizens." Lars started lecturing her.

"You make them go on an expedition towards Orario for a year, then make them go back here and start the process anew.

They'll be able to repopulate more. Without sacrificing strength. Are you a fucking idiot?" Lars looked at her like a yankee.

"Uhhh, sorry?" Kali thought about it and she has to admit, that was a good plan.

"Listen here, isolated countries always fall. They are doomed to the same fate, history already proves it." Lars pointed at her head.

"Think, Kali, think! What will you have after 100 years? 200? 500? Orario already outnumber your country by a large margin. The gap will only increase further until Telskyura treads the path of certain doom." Lars sighed.

"You'll outlast every single one of your children. You'll outlive this planet and see it blow up! You must maximize your children's survival! You've had eons to think of how. And you're still a dumbass." Lars was so annoyed he posed to strike.

She flinched and Kali clicked her tongue. "Gods do not change, Lars. We are static, neverchanging. A constant in the universe."

"This is the problem with you gods, excuses. You live in constant stagnation. Humans do not need you, they thrive in change, in innovation." Lars huffed.

"I'll take over Telskyura, you do not have the qualification to make them strong." Lars stood up and Kali gritted her teeth in anger.

"What makes you think you are qualified!?" Kali glared daggers at him.

"I've already raised an adventurer that can be called a prodigy amongst prodigies. Yet she's just a normal girl.

Grew up in a mundane middle class family. No killer instinct like the amazons. With motivation to become a healer. Yet she grew to level 4 in just a few years." Lars snorted.

"She could be level 6 or 7 now if I pushed her, that's the difference between us. I innovate, crush the norms, and bring new blood that surpass the previous generations." Kali looked at him in surprise.

He did not lie at all. She shut up with that and Lars pointed at Tiona and Tione.

"Look at a fraction of what our guidance results in." Lars watched the fight unfold with Kali.
