Seige(3) (Volume 5 Chapter 3)

Dog girl-"Av...enger?"

Death Lord-" Yes, Avenger in simpler terms a person who walks the path of revenge."

Dog girl-"Revenge? but isn't revenge a bad thing?"

Said the girl who looked liked she was around 10 years in age. revenge a bad thing certainly I know that but the one to always suffer are good people whereas the scumbag lives a life of luxury and pleasure. I knew all that it was not like this only happens in this world my previous world was also the same. The good was always taken advantage of where the bad was the one to take

the advantage and enjoy their life.

I always ignored those things taking it as not

my problem but when I came to this world I understood something.

I understood that I could no longer just be the Valor who was a good guy, a saviour to the weak

and comrade of justice, a hero but I had to be the Death Lord who was the abomination of a scumbag, who repaid his grudges hundred times over, who only looked for his profits, a villain.

Only iron can cut iron so to defeat one must become greater evil.

Well looks like I made the girl waiting for long. I have to correct my habit of going into deep thoughts.

Dog girl-" Ummmm....will you help me?"

the girl asked with her dog ears twitching and tails swaying left and right reminded me of the labrador I had he was also black in colour so you guys would already know my answer.

Death Lord-" No."

Terror struck on her hopeful face and if what goddess was true then her face right now would be the face I made when Elene stabbed me.

The girl was crying with a smile in her face and at that moment I decided something and I didn't know at that time that this single decision would change my life.

I removed my illusion and now was in my racial form of undead.

The crying girl didn't get scared seeing my undead form but simply stared at me.

I unlocked her shackles which made the chained girl fall down. She fell on her knees and when she looked upwards towards me. I said

Death Lord- " you will help yourself."

I stretched out my hand to help her stand up am know her answer. if it was a yes I would help her to live by herself and if it was no I would leave her on her own.

Well in both cases there was a good chance she would die.

Looking hesitant she grabbed my hand and even though I was in my villain mode I let out a small smile.

Yells of soldiers could be heard it was late night and the invincible Fort Wayne was on fire. the criminal slaves were fighting out with the stationed soldiers. quite many of the soldiers were already dead, looks like many of them were caught in the surprise attack of the slaves.

well guessing the festive mood they were in after the speech that was plausible.

The knights have started to overwhelm the slaves, even though the demihumans are superior in numbers they can't match the skills of the highly trained feudal knights of the duke, but the duke was nowhere to be seen. the houses in the middle section were burning and civilians were running for their lives.

Some demihumans had started to kill the harmless civilian and I would not be surprised if they started doing more atrocities next as it was in nature of the suppressed to seek pleasure from suppressing the others, it was part of the human nature or demi-human nature in this case.

I was simply walking among all the chaos with Cecil in my arms and if you didn't understand that let me make you, it was the name of the black wolf girl, she belonged to the Shadow wolf race who were known for being great warriors.

I didn't know that while making my decision but she would do great at the first comrade of the Death Lord.

From what I can understand the duke had already abandoned the fortress which was in chaos but I didn't think that some demi-humans were enough to drive him away but as soon as I came to the outer section of the fort I understood the reason for the duke fleeing.

the main gate of the fort was down and monsters from the Lost forest had swarmed the outer section of the Fort.

Death Lord-" Looks like everyone here is fated to die."

I looked at the scared Cecil and said

Death Lord -" Except us that is."

We were proceeding smoothly till a monster blocked our path.

It was a Wild Ogre, spanning over three meters in height.

With small legs but huge arms, it had a burly gorilla-like body. Patches of pale green skin could be seen as well as body hair on its muscular body, and the lower half of it was wrapped up by a beast-skin pelt.

Its bald head, tiny compared to the rest of its body, was similar to a human's. Its ears were tapered, and its canine teeth had grown out from its lower jaw and were protruding out its mouth

The Ogre charged at us but a wall of earth emerged between us. Must be one of the mages stationed here. The ogre charged at the death wall and was trying to take it down

Each time it did, magic was concentrated and poured on it from above the stone bulwark.

Each shot was second grade—mid-range magic, so to speak. If focused, it would prove powerful enough to wound the Wild Ogre, making it flinch.

Arrows rained down incessantly from the protective wall of the fortress.

They, too, were slowly damaging the Wild Ogre.

However, it wasn't enough to be a finishing blow.

Wild Ogres were quite strong compared to other monsters.

"Shoooom"

A spear was thrown towards the rampaging orc

Guided by the power put behind it, the spear plunged forward guided by the wind.

The spear, wrapped in wind, flew in a straight line, knocking aside the arrows in its path, before scoring a direct hit on the Wild Ogre's face.

An ear-deafening cry came from the monster.

The spear's sharp tip pierced the monster's eyeball, and the sharp winds encircling the grip only served to further gouge into its face.

Blue blood spewed out from it like a fountain.

Its vision now crippled, the Wild Ogre staggered from the severe damage dealt with it.

This would give them a fighting chance but their survival was no concern of mine I simply continued to walk and after coming out of the fort. I activated [Super Sonic] to go back to the

Royal Capital holding the now sleeping Cecil in my arms.
