Sirzechs smiled and drank some wine. "So who sent you here?" Sirzechs drank another sip of wine and answered on behalf of the Assassin's. "We don't tell you or something similar along the lines."
"Attack him." All the Assassins attacked Sirzechs at all sides.
.
Red destructive Aura floated around Sirzechs.
Demonic Bullets of Annihilation!
Through years of training along with the demonic power talents of the Gremory, Sirzechs has become able to shape his Power of Destruction into numerous, highly mobile spheres able to eliminate things without a trace as well as circumvent the defenses of his target, resulting in minimal damage to the surroundings.
.
All the spheres made from destruction magic flew at the Assassins at very high speed.
Before the spheres made from destruction magic could hit the Assassins a green barrier formed in front of all the Assassins.
"OH!" Sirzechs raised his eyebrow in surprise. Sirzechs then took a good look and then found someone hidden behind the group of Assassins.
"It seems that someone in your squad specializes in defensive magic."
.
The red destructive around Sirzechs thickened even more which caused his hair to float.
"Bu how about defending from my S Rank attack?" Sirzechs again created created small red spheres but this time the spheres powers was more compressed than before making the spheres made from destruction magic even more powerful.
Yuji who was also the leader of this assassin group, seeing this knew that they were in trouble.
"Hurry up and use your own magic to make the toughest barrier you can." Again a green wall formed in front of the Assassins but this time the barrier looked was dark green instead of light green color.
Each sphere hit each dark green barrier, one destruction magic made sphere for one assassin.
Unfortunately for the assassins, some of their man didn't had enough mana to create a powerful barrier strong enough to withstand Sirzechs S Rank destruction magic made sphere.
Crack!
The barrier was destroyed like a stone thrown on a weak glass and the glass shatters. The same thing happened with the barrier, the barrier shattered into thousands of tiny pieces.
.
The red spheres made from destruction magic instantly killed one third of the assassins. The dead assassins bodies was turned to nothing which the special ability of destruction magic. It can erase anything. But Sirzechs also knew that destruction magic had its weakness.
Out of 20 assassins only 13 assassins remained including the leader Yuji and the the S Rank defensive magic caster.
"Hold him for another 30 seconds. Right now we need time more than anything else." Yuji said to his subordinates in a code word which Sirzechs couldn't understand.
Yuji and his men could enter Gremory household because they have an ability which let's them completely erase their mana signature presence. Even now while fighting with Sirzechs, there was no extra mana being leaked which could alert the gremory household. Sirzechs was able to find them because they were planning on attacking him and was looking for an opportunity.
.
"Tell me little assassins why did you came here? Who send you here? If you tell me the answer I might let you all the live. Not just living, I will give you enough money to start your new life in Sunburst city." if Sirzechs wanted he could have killed all the assassins in his earlier attack but he didn't.
Yuji and the rest of the assassins hearing Sirzechs was not at all tempted. Yuji and others has been brainwashed when they were child so they had no emotions. They only had one emotion and that is their master.
.
Seeing that the assassins not replying Sirzechs sighed knowing that their master must have done some sort of brainwashing with them.
"Since you guys do not want to answer then you can die." Again red aura concentrated around Sirzechs body which made his hair to fly. 13 dark red spheres made from destruction magic formed pointing at the 13 assassins.
"Now die" Sirzechs was about to launch his spheres but then one shadow appeared behind Sirzechs and then both disappeared. Yuji and others sighed in relief.
"Plan was a success. Let's follow master. We will need to insure nothing happens to our master." All the assassins left the area. Again the entire area turned very quiet. No one would know if anything had happened here.
.
"Where are we?" Sirzechs asked. Sirzechs looked around and found himself in a open space surrounded by forest. The open space was about 1km big. The entire forest was quiet as if waiting for Sirzechs to start his battle. The full moonlight made everything rich.
Sirzechs looked at the figure who brought him here. Seeing the man's unique appearance, Sirzechs knew who he was.
"Zolgear you!" Sirzechs just couldn't believe one of the member under the current Demon king Faction would came to attack him. Zolgear is one of the member of current Demon Council made by the councils and elders.
Zolgear was a tall man and wore a red jacket with yellow-padded shoulders. He had pointy ears, white hair with a matching beard as well as purple eyes.
"Zolgear you bastard. I was thinking of ways of hunting you. But since you came to me then don't even think of leaving this place alive." Sirzechs made a distance between Zolgear and prepared to fight him. Sirzechs Aura surrounded him, making his entire body glow in faint red light.
"Hehehe! Sirzechs it's honor finally meeting you. Do you know Sirzechs that at what cost I had to use that teleportation scroll just to bring you here. As long as I can kill you and take your destruction magic powers for myself it will be worth it."
Zolgear was originally a nice man, but losing the love of his life changed him. His quest to revive her caused him to start researching and experimenting with forbidden magic. Over the course of his quest, he received countless injuries and curses, that altered his physical appearance to the point where people couldn't recognize him. Eventually, he became the leading expert on magical life forms in the Demon Realm.
"You bastard, you also killed Mio's parents just because you wanted Mio's father powers to yourself." Sirzechs and never faction leaders knew that Zolgear was the killer of Mio's parents and has been hunting for Mio for an entire year. Sirzechs never told Mio or anyone from his family about this since he felt that he should keep this information to himself. If Mio was to know the truth then she might even had gone back to demon realm just to try to kill Zolgear.
"Sirzechs don't say like that. The elders and the current Demon King didn't even react when I killed Mio's parents. The elders themselves was trying to find a way to get rid of Mio's father as they couldn't control him. Unfortunately I couldn't get Wilbert powers otherwise I could have killed you in seconds."
The more Sirzechs heard Zolgear's words the angrier he became. Wilbert was Sirzechs best friend. They had bought together for years and was brothers in arms. During the Civil War, at some point no faction dared to face Sirzechs and Wilbert together. Because everyone knew that Sirzechs and Wilbert together is impossible to beat. "I kill you here today even if it means declaring war against Demon faction."
For last few hundreds of years, Sirzechs has been making peace with every faction because he didn't wanted to go to another war. Sirzechs corner was his people. The devil had low birth rate. During the Civil War the number of devils significantly something which the devils race is yet to recover from. So Sirzechs never fought with any faction in the last few hundreds years because he wanted to let his devil race population regrow.
But now Sirzechs didn't care. Sirzechs has been holding his faction for a long time. Sirzechs wouldn't mind fighting against Demon faction even if it means countless deaths of his devil race.
"Sirzechs you talk about declaration of war but first try to be alive from our hands." Hearing Zolgear's words, Sirzechs raised his eyebrow.
"Our?" But then Sirzechs expression changed as if feeling something. Sirzechs looked up at the figure flying towards them. The figure landed beside Zolgear. "Nice to meet Mr Sirzechs."
Sirzechs clearly knew who he was based on the appearance of this person. Grayfia had told Sirzechs about the appearance of this person. He is from undead faction, the one responsible for what had happened to Finn.
"Allen."
