Death… And Me Chapter 808 - First Day

Chapter 808 - First Day

Author's Question: Do you think I shouldn't have destroyed Sunkan Planet? Would you rather have the twins' group return to the Sasamil Empire in the future to end what they started? It would only need a small change to alter the fate of Sunkan Planet if I go back and fix it, so leave a comment in this paragraph or in this chapter's comments.

None of the Demon Beasts, be it Divine or not, had anything to say about Rean's words. Using strategies and schemes had never been their forte to start with, and now they could give it up and focus on raw power alone. As for the army, after everything Roan showed to them, they were at ease, leaving it for him to take care of.

In a way, this was both a good and a bad thing. It was good that they weren't as paranoid as humans were when it came to giving someone more power. On the other hand, they were more susceptible to being betrayed. Then again, Roan wasn't planning to betray them. After all, the human race's future was also dependent on this war.

Phex's group immediately took flight and headed toward the Zasfins' territory. Naturally, Fikin and the other Ancestors received the report straight away. "What? All of them are coming? But the battles of the central army had barely even started."

"They might be trying to do the same thing as they did to Huo and his group, forcing us to fight over our own army."

"We have a lot more experts than them. If they do that, they won't be able to stop all of us from leaving the fight and aiming at their forces."

Fikin then called everyone's attention, telling them, "Whether they want to do it or not doesn't matter. We can't stay here while they're coming out. Let's go."

For Transition Realm cultivators and Demon Beasts, the distance between the two armies didn't mean much. The moment Fikin's group received a message about Phex, they left straight away, arriving at the scene not long after. However, they quickly noticed that Phex's group didn't throw themselves into their Zasfin army. Instead, they stopped above an empty s.p.a.ce as if they were waiting for Fikin's group to arrive.

"Hahaha! Fikin, it has been quite some time, hasn't it?" Phex asked from a distance.

Fikin used his Spiritual Sense to check the surroundings but couldn't see anything. "What are you planning? Is there a reason for all of you to come out so early?" Naturally, he was afraid that the demon beasts had a trick behind their sleeves.

Unfortunately for him, Phex shook his head as he replied, "There's nothing wrong here. We came out for something very simple, fight! With our main armies here, the war will take many days, if not weeks. That being said, why not start on our side as well? Or could it be that your Soul Rulers organization is afraid of us?"

Fikin snorted after hearing that, saying in response, "Hmph! Since you came here to do that, we'll obviously fulfill your wish. Everyone, hear my command! Attack!"

Immediately, the air around the Zasfins and the demon beasts' top experts became a forbidden zone for anyone below their level. This time, it wasn't only the Transition Realm and Stage Nine Demon Beasts fighting. Instead, everyone at the Saint Realm and Elemental Transformation Realm was partic.i.p.ating. There was no holding back in power anymore.

Rean looked at the scene in the distance, wondering who would be the first demon beast to come back to him. Suddenly, his brooch warmed up, showing that he received a message from Qia. "Oh! It was about time." Rean then turned around and went to see Roan.

"Roan, Qia arrived at the Zasfin Army with the Hafel Clan," Rean said as he showed the brooch.

Roan nodded and touched it together with Rean so that they could talk with Qia at the same time. Soon after, Roan sent his question with a Spiritual Sense into the brooch. 'Qia, is Sevinia there with you?'

Qia immediately answered, 'Yes. However, except for that Ancestor that everyone thinks to be dead, the others have joined the fight against the Stage Nine Demon Beasts, both normal and Divine.'

Roan, of course, already heard about the guy who was said to be playing dead. 'It's fine. I've already organized the army so that we could take advantage while the Zasfins' experts are fighting. Tell Sevinia to move her own army along the path I point out. That way, her Hafel Clan will prevent some of our forces from conquering some ground.'

Qia nodded in response and immediately pa.s.sed the message to Sevinia, who followed Roan's ideas. At first, Sevinia acted very cautiously, arriving at the last possible moment in case it was a trap against her Hafel Clan. However, their clan's army really ended up preventing some of the other clans' forces from falling. Of course, there was a limit to what Sevinia could do with her forces, so it wasn't as if she was present at every single point where their side was losing. That also contributed to conceal the fact that she knew what would happen.

Another thing that Roan did was selecting which fronts he would lose. It wasn't as if he could definitely win on those sides, but instead, he decided that it was better to give up. Because of that, the war was a lot more balanced than one could expect.

The first day quickly pa.s.sed as the top experts of both sides fought. Eventually, night arrived, prompting both sides to call it a day. Rean didn't know how a battle between experts of that level would work, but he didn't expect that not even a single one of the demon beasts came back to ask him for healing.

Phex and all the other Stage Nine Demon Beasts returned to the back of the Demon Beast Army as Fikin's group did the same. Only then did Rean see the outcome of their battle. "This...I thought you guys would have suffered at least some serious injuries. How come almost no one has accrued any?"

Xaon laughed as he explained, "That's because neither side was really taking the first day seriously. It has been a very, very long time since we fought, let alone with so many top-level combatants. Whether it may be the Zasfins or us demon beasts, the first days will mostly be used for probing."

Only then did Rean understand the reason.
