FYR:
Hanzo - Hakurou

Hana - Shuna
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As the envoy left, we set a meeting to discuss ongoing scenarios, the meeting was attended by me, Aniki, Vayu, Ranga, Rigurd, Hanzo, Kuroshi, Hana, Benimaru, Shion, Kurobe, Kaijin and other Goblin folks
I started the meeting "As you see we just met the envoy of Lizardmen, as they said the orcs' army is invading all the villages in the forest, Kuroshi, your body double is scouting the forest right? Do you have any info?"
"Yes Emeric-Sama, an army of 300,000 is marching towards Lizardmen army" replied Kuroshi.
"This could be troublesome, why don't we help them?" said Aniki.
"That won't do, we have only 10,000 troops, even if we can able to kill 200,000 there will be 100,000 left, and our troops will be tired, so helping them would backfire on us," I replied
"What can we do then?" asked Aniki
"Emeric-sama we won't be tired" replied Benimaru and the remaining of them nodded their heads.
"It's not like I don't believe in you, what I'm saying is we cannot overlook the possibilities, the last thing I want is you being killed on the battlefield," I said
"understood…" they all said in unison
"But one thing keeps bugging me…that how could 30000 move without any rule, who is commanding them?" Aniki asked
"Maybe Orc Lord?..it should be possible, see we have Rigurd who became a Hobgoblin Lord, In the same way, Orc Lord would be there right? If someone named an Orc.." I said
"Yeah I'm thinking the same" Aniki replied
I turned towards Rigurd and Asked "Rigurd, you said someone named your elder son as Rigur right? Do you remember his name?"
"Yes, It is Gelmud-sama" replied Rigurd
Then I turned towards Benimaru and asked "I'm guessing the same person who approached your village"
"yes Emeric-sama" replied Benimaru
"I think it must be the same guy who named orc as well, All this is not a coincidence, something big is going on" I spoke
Kaijin interjected "I also agree on what you said Emeric-sama if this invasion is not based on some instinct we should suspect that someone higher than this Gelmud might be backing them"
"Someone is backing them?" Asked Kurobe shockingly
"Like a Demon Lord perhaps?" Aniki replied
"I don't know if a Demon Lord is involved or not, but I think Orc Lord must have appeared"
Suddenly Kuroshi had a shocked expression
"what is it?" asked Aniki
Kuroshi replied "One of the body doubles I had scouting in the forest made an encounter"
"Encounter?" I asked
"They are requesting an audience with you Emeric-sama, Rimuru sama" Kuroshi replied
"Who is it anyway?" I asked
"It is a highly unusual encounter, it is a dryad" replied
"A Dryad?" Aniki exclaimed
"Fine bring her here," said Aniki swallowing his words
Suddenly glowing green colored vines appeared in front of us, and it formed a cocoon-like structure, like Vayu, Kuroshi, Hana, Benimaru and Shion stood in front of me and Aniki in a protective formation, and the cocoon rotated and a glowing girl with green colored hair emerged from it.
"Rulers of the Monsters; pleased to meet you, I'm Treyni the dryad"
"So what brings you here?" I asked
"I have come here to ask both of you to ask a favor" she replied who now identified as Treyni
"Favor?" Aniki questioned
"Yes, please defeat the two Orc lords and bring peace to the forest" Treyni replied
"not one but two?" asked Aniki
"yes there are two orc lords, please defeat them" said Treyni
"why would we do that?" I interjected
"Because you both are the only ones who can defeat the Orc Lords"
And the meeting continued, we have discovered that the Orc Lord have a skill called [Starved], which is similar to [Ravager].
And Kuroshi went to meet with the Lizardmen.
-------
Now we are on our way to meet with the Lizardmen and as the Orcs have already reached the Lizardmen territory the war might happen anytime soon.
'Emeric-sama, Rimuru-sama, a moment?' Kuroshi spoke to both of us via Telepathy
'what's the matter Kuroshi?' Aniki replied
'I have come across two groups currently engaged in battle' Kuroshi replied
'who are they?' I asked
'yes, one is personal guard of Lizardmen chieftain, they appear to be fighting with high ranking orc, what action should I take' Kuroshi replied
'save her' Aniki
'As you command' Kuroshi replied and the telepathy disconnected.
Soon we met with several bodies of the Orcs, and Kuroshi holding a female Lizardmen, so we got to know that her brother revolted against them and went to fight the orc lord, she pleaded to save the Lizardmen village and her brother, so we put the alliance then and there.
Soon we reached the battlefield, and our troops started to fight the orcs, Kijins having their best time killing them, me and Aniki and flew on to the sky. And watching the battle, this time I didn't have the wings, I created a Skill [Flight]. Using that I flew up.
I found many Orcs, and wanted to try out something new, and put my hand up and my eyes glowed in purple, and dark clouds started to cover the sky and it is rumbling with lightning.
A huge golden-colored wheel with spikes glowed in a white color formed above my hand, The wheel started to revolve in insane speeds, as it is revolving thunderous sounds reverberated through the entire battlefield, shaking the very ground.
everyone astonishingly looked towards me like a god descended from the sky, and the wheel flew from my hand in an insane speed and started slaughtering the orcs, it only slaughters the Orcs, it leaves our troops.
I then found the Orc Lord who managed to stop the wheel, with his huge cleaver, the wheel increased its speed, and with my finger movement, the Wheel changed its direction towards the other Orcs.
'I will deal with you myself'
I flew towards the Orc Lords with Mach 1 speed, Like a meteor falling down from the sky I flew down and gave a punch to his face channeled with lightning, he fell down and the ground cracked into several meters deep, creating a huge crater, his face almost burned to crisp and but he regenerated his face really fast. And he is trying to get up.
'Let's see how you deal with this'
I lifted my finger up and moved it down a meteor-sized stone falling down from the sky, he was trying to getaway from there and I snapped, it speed increased and fell down upon him, he managed stop it with his hands, the ground cracked again and a few meters deep crater formed, he was trying holding it down and his both legs buried down into the earth.
"Ho~ what about the other one?" I said
And another meteor-sized stone fell down and it crashed on the huge stone, he buried onto the ground. And there is no response from him.
I moved the meteor-sized stones, and called out him "Oi, Orc Lord, are you there? Come on out, I'm having fun here after a long time, come out lets dance"
I was able to control the meteors and the wheel because I have created another skill [TeleKenesis]
But there is no response from him.
"Tch.."
I put my hand on the ground and lifted him up, and he lost consciousness, I slapped his face left and right at inhumane speeds,
He finally started to wakeup and I got bored, and I used [Ravager] and absorbed the Orc Lord.
