Chapter 202 â Matar Deus
Avorosâ declaration of world conquest terrified most of the people in the vicinity, as if time stopped for them. Nevertheless, he continued without minding such people.
âSo I was thinking of inviting you people under my wings, how about it?â
His way of speaking were light. It was like someone inviting anyone on the way with their journey.
Still, there were people who rejected his offer.
â â Like hell we will! â â
The Demon Queen and the Beast King completely denied at the same time.
However, Avoros wasnât shaken by it, and spoke as if he expected such answer.
âThen we are going to war.â
This time, he answered without hesitation. Though the meaning of his words was a serious matter, everyone was still speechless from his previous words.
âThatâs right, there are things I canât let you do as you please Eveam. And Itâs not possible to solve through your peace talks. How will I do it instead?âŠâŠ.. Simple, I will deprive everything through sheer strength.â
âD-donât screw with me! We already reached a consensus here, and yet you intend to increase again the hatred!â
âThen, just be quiet and obediently become under my jurisdiction. If you do so, I could have handled you all properly.â
âAll the more reason to reject your offer! Itâs better to annihilate us rather than to become under your control you bastard!â
Leowald raised his voice with indignation.
âMaa, youâre probably right. I donât need the ăGabranthâsă after all. Even if I didnât invite you, youâll eventually become pets, or rations, no? or probably just some heap of garbages.â
However, because Leowaldâs condition had not yet recovered, he bent his knee in the process.
âOh my, you shouldnât overwork yourself you know?â
It would seem that Avoros words didnât reach the infuriated Leowald.
âYou bastardâŠâŠ..â
âAhaha, while Iâll be glad to keep you guys in company, as expected I donât have such luxury. Iâve made a lot preparations in my side. Let me seeâŠ..you donât mind if we make an announcement here, right?â
Avoros stretched his arms outwards, his eyes were burning with confidence.
âI hope that youâll remember us. We are ăMatar Deusă, the rulers of this world.â
âThatâs absurdâŠ.â
Leowald made a mutter in representation of all the people in the place.
âFufufu, that ends my speech, I just wanted to show my face around here.â
Suddenly, the pool of water below the groupâs feet spread as everyone in the place were blinded by a bright line. And then, the group were slowly sucked by the water. They seemed to be taking their leave.
One by one the robed figures sunk into the pool with only a few left who hadnât yet.
âAh, I forgot to say this! Beast King?â
âLet me tell you something good.â
As Avoros had called, Leowald turned at him with suspicious eyes.
ââŠ.the soldiers who came here a while ago were your subordinate right? Though weâve killed most of them.â
âJust hear me out. Although I think you shouldnât hear about these kind of thingsâŠ.â
And when Avoros takes a deep breath,
âAlthough heâs not here, Kokurou is also under my wings you know.â
âW-what did you say!â
It was assumed that Leowald was the one who shouted, but it was Marione. When Avoros saw Marione in his field of vision, he was wide eyed in surprise,
âAh, now that you mention it, I think Kokorou was the one who killed Marioneâs family, no?â
âIs that story true, Previous King!ââ
His expression was as if he was about to pounce at anyone right now.
âItâs true. After this, feel free to go to ăPassionă for confirmation, alright?â
ââŠ.oi, what do you mean by that?â
Naturally, Leowald couldnât ignore what he said, and asked in doubt.
âWell you see, Kokurou said he was going to ăPassionăâ
This time, Leowald was the one who raised his voice. His face transformed into a ghastly expression as if he was flooded with despair.
âAhaha, thatâs why you should return home with haste, no? Also Eveam?â
âIâm taking care of Teckil in my side.â
âWha-!? So you were the one!â
Avoros disappeared into the pool of water. Their feelings of festivity before were now replaced by a lump in their throats.
Meanwhile, Camus was throwing a sharp glance towards a certain man.
âIâll absolutelyâŠ.knock you down.â
ââŠ.then try me, my name is Hiyomi.â
Camus stared for a long time without breaking his gaze at Hiyomi as the latter slowly disappeared in the pool.
ââŠâŠ.I will beat you for sure.â
Camus clasped his fist as he made a declaration to himself.
While silence enveloped the surroundings, Leowaldâs body staggered violently as he began to walk.
First Prince Leglos called out to him, but Leowald showed no signs of hearing him, and continued to walk with abandon.
Leglos blocked Leowaldâs path, and met him eye to eye. However, it was as if Leowald was saying to leave him alone just from the intensity of his gaze. Still, Leglos didnât tremble from it, and stood firm.
âFather, first of all, please issue your instructions!â
âThis is your role as a ruler!â
Leowald was caught surprised by Leglosâ words, and closed his eyes as he inhaled a large breath.
ââŠ.that helped Leglos. I was about to nearly throw away my obligation as a ruler.â
â Donât worry, because thatâs my role right now.â
âGahaha, your roleâŠ. right now . Rara, it seems that my son has what it takes after all.â
âYes, please value it. While I couldnât stop you, Leglos didnât and called you many times a while ago.â
âGahaha! I seem to have worried you people, sorry about that!â
Seeing as Leowald was able to calmly think again, he cleared his throat, and
âAt any rate, it is necessary to return to our country to confirm what had occurred.â
The beast men also nodded respectively to Leowaldâs words.
âThere are too much events that have happened today. Normally, after this I would speak with the people of ăEvilaă butâŠ..â
Though he said so to Eveam, the latter also supported his decision,
âIt can wait. There are a lot of things we should confirm first. After we prove what Avoros had said, it is necessary for us to work on the counter measures in future regarding his true aim. As representatives of our newly established alliance.â
âI agree. It is necessary to understand accurately our current state. After that, it would be wise to open a conference about it for the future.â
Certainly, It would be better to advance the relationship of both races in here. Theyâve just recently established the alliance, but their people were troubled by the sudden irregularity that had occurred.
For the sake of mutual information, itâs necessary to return to their respective country, and calm the situation.
âAlright. Then, please contact me when you have tentative control on your side. Because Avoros may possibly do something while we are at it.â
Indeed, though Avoros may have said that heâd done something to ăPassionă, itâs possibly a scapegoat to aim at ăXaosă next. It is necessary to confirm it right now.
âYouâre correct. If he really intends to cause another war, then we canât lose to the war. Itâs necessary to exchange information closely after this.â
âYes. Then, let us make haste. I donât know if Avoros was threatening us when he said it, but there was some truth to it about the state of the soldiers who came a while ago, something doesnât feel right about it.â
âI apologize about that.â
Leowald began to turn his heels towards his people, and issued his instructions.
