*KRRRR*
*baa baa baa*
About an hour after the Draco Legion's attack, dozens of black metallic ships arrived at the shore of the Flame Empire Continent, and their passengers began to descend to the shore one after another...
The thing is... For the first time in thousands of years, the ships that anchored near the shore did not look like the ships of the Flame Empire, and the passengers descending from them certainly didn't look like humans.
*deep Inhale*
"Hooo~ I have been waiting for this moment for a whole year, we finally arrived at the Flame Empire Continent," Robin spoke and looked around
"The next fight will not be easy." Jabba walked up from behind Robin and stood to his right and spoke with furrowed eyebrows, "You have seen for yourself how they fight in Central Continent, whether we win or lose, our losses will still be immense."
"Hmph, lose? there will be no war to lose, but a massacre, Amon assures victory!" Amon came when he heard these words of Jabba, stood to Robin's left, and replied
Robin showed a half smile, "Whether it's a tough fight or a one-sided massacre, it's something we have to do and it's inevitable.. begin the preparations."
Amon and Jabba nodded, and returned to supervise the docking of the ships and the organization of the landing of the soldiers.
Leaving Robin slowly looking around.
The water that turned red from the abundance of blood is still boiling and evaporating, spreading the stench of blood, and the ocean began to throw out the charred teenage bodies on the shore... The shore was already filled with the bodies of the coast guards.
A horrific silence took over the place...
The Demons are silent as usual, although most of them have learned to speak, they still maintain their quiet nature unless a need arises, some looking for something to eat and some helping to dock the ships, but everything went on without saying a word...
Of course, at the side of the imperial troops, the silence was more apparent, for the dead do not usually speak, and none of them remains alive... not even a single one left for a soul search.
Robin could only hear the waves of the sea, so he ignored the rotten smell of blood and closed his eyes, trying to imagine his next step carefully.
"No No NOOO!! ..most of them are kids, just kids!! ...F*CK OFF YOU FILTHY DEMON, I WON'T LET YOU EAT THIS GIRL!!" A desperate cry suddenly came from Billy, interrupting the prevailing calm, "Robin, what's going on here? Did you know that everyone on the ships were kids?!"
Robin opened his eyes and looked toward the source of the voice and spoke, "Of course, I held them as hostages before to exchange with Caesar and the others, but the Flame Empire broke the agreement first and attacked us as you saw.
I should have sent the Drako fleet and sank them all then and there, however, I was generous enough and allowed them to go back and see their home and even communicate with a few Saints from the Flame Empire, with that I had completed my part of the deal even though they brock it, what's the problem with that? Secondly, the death of these teenagers is only the beginning, no one will be left alive on this continent when I'm done with it."
"...Huh? Do you know what you are saying? I heard that the Imperial Family of the Flame Empire is estimated between one or two million members, and they took families from the Ancestral Continent with them to serve them and work for them, those numbering at least tens of millions… You said that you want to kill everyone? Even servant families ?" Billy quickly moved toward Robin when he heard his words, leaving the body of the girl he was protecting exposed to the bites of the Demon who had been waiting anxiously.
Robin furrowed his eyebrows when he heard this and replied, "Didn't they kill our women and children also when they entered Jura? Didn't they kill the women and children of the families who were living peacefully in our lands? How could this be any different? Are our blood red and theirs golden?"
"It was a war, they killed a large number of us but they also enslaved many more, and they foxed on Jura and Ignored all the other cities and villages in our Dukehom, during the past months we have managed to gather about 30,000 members of the Burton family from across the Ancestral Continent, they are safe now in the capital of the Black Sun, that is how things work!
I understand we have to respond and get our revenge ten folds by crippling their forces so that we can have some peace in the future, but you must at least leave the innocents alive, you must set red lines for yourself!! But talking about killing everyone from the Imperial Family…? this is crazy!" Bailey spoke quickly, trying to change Robin's mind with all his might,
Then suddenly looked back when he heard a chewing sound and shouted, "I said f*ck off you son of a bitch from the girl's corpse or I will break your head!!"
"Kill all members of the imperial family? Of course, I won't do that.." Robin shook his head
"Phew~" Billy let out a long exhale when he heard this and put his hand on Robin's shoulder, "Good... I knew there was still good in you."
"Good in me? It's done Billy, no need to talk more about it, I will not only kill the imperial family members but all the servant families as well, I don't in a disturbance in my future, the flame empire page will be closed forever after I'm done with it." Robin spoke with heavy killing intent, and then looked at Amon behind Billy, "Are you done? Can we move now?"
"At your command at any time," Amon spoke confidently, behind him tens of thousands of Demons were standing in order, all looking at Robin with flames burning in their eyes, anxiously awaiting the signal to advance towards their next big meal.
Since coming to this world their strength witnessed an explosive speed, after every big war all of them get to eat enough to raise their power, there is no problem if many of them were destined to die because whoever is left alive will become stronger, and their race has a high productive cycle anyway!
Power, Glory, Serving their benefactor, this war is giving them everything they can hope for!
Fight FIGHT FIIIGHHTT!!!!
*BAAA*
All of sudden all the momentum the Demons gathered was shattered by a left-hooked punch from Billy that suddenly landed on Robin's right jaw and knocked him to the ground, their facial features turning from sternness and killing intent to utter astonishment as if the sky was crashing before their eyes.
"Y-... Your Excellency!!"
"Lord!!!"
"YOU ARE DEAD!!"
The likes of Amon, Moren, Sakar, and others began to rush toward Robin.
"STAND BACK, none of you is to touch him!!" Robin quickly raised his hand and ordered the demons to stop, then turned to Billy with an angry face, ready to stand up and punch him back, but his features straightened out again when he raised his head and found Billy crying heartily, "You..."
"If you want to pass this order... if you want to order your demons to exterminate tens of millions of innocent people... you must do it over my dead body!!"
