Chapter 155 Eve of battle

Two hours earlier

"Your Majesty, i shall make you proud" a governor announced as he got on his knees

"Jerry, i am not your father, you don't have to make me proud, just destroy the enemy and be done with it" Kingsley said for like the sixth time in the last two hours.

"But you are my king" The man said with a smile on his face

Kingsley looked at the man and smiled as well. Jerry was his oldest governor and the very first to surrender to him.

Apart from that, he was also seemed to be the most loyal amongst all his governors. Hence Kingsley planned to make him represent him during this small battle.

Hearing him, Kingsley simply smiled as he turned to the five behind him. They were mostly other lords he was unfamiliar with. the only other person he knew was Edward.

"I cant say i know must of you or even the criteria used to select you all but i trust my governors. so i wish you all luck in your battle"

"Thank you, your majesty"

"For fair warning, I want to tell you all that there is a possibly that you will be required to kill your fellow him. i may be able to enhance your powers or even grant you godhood but this is a fellow human, i only hope you all are up for it"

"That is a hurdle we will overcome when we get there" Jerry said with a determined look on his face

"That is an excellent outlook, however, i will say this. Don't let your power blind you" Kingsley advised.

If there was anyone who could say that it was him. He had been invincible for so long that during his fight with the lady Venus, he almost got killed.

Turns out that after all he had done to be mindful of the fact that all other lords had access to mysterious and powerful abilities too, he would be the one to fall to such an obvious mistake

"We will do our best, your majesty" Edward replied as the others nodded

"Okay then, its time" Kingsley said as he saw the portal appear before them.

As he said that, the group stood up as they walked back to the small army behind them. None of his troops could be seen in the army.

With just a glance, he could see multiple undead, some Elves, dwarves, gnomes, angels and some other creatures. There were thousands of them, each one bearing aura belonging to the SSS-rank or above.

Somehow Kingsley could sense the presence of some Disaster-class soldiers within the small army despite their origins.

These were all troops summoned by the governors so it didn't make sense that there were a disaster-class beings in it but then lucky evolutions do happen during summoning even though its rare.

As for why the army was this big, it was simple. Governor's like Jerry had the ability to summon twice as many troops compared to regular Lords.

Jerry's [Half-off] talent made it possible for him to summon twice as much troops from his summoning pools.

It was something Kingsley didnt even consider when he first saw him but unlike the other lords, Jerry had a total of twenty slimes with him when he surrendered.

Of course, his ignorance then could also be attributed to the fact that he didnt know the limit to the number of troops they could summon each week.

For someone like Jerry the only thing that made him surrender was his lack of strong troops. if he had a good starting line up then he would surely be one of the lords against him now... well probably.

As they stepped back to re-join their army, Athena stepped up as she stood before them to address them. Kingsley who saw standing a bit further away wanted to laugh when the towering figure approached them.

"Each and every one of you have been fitted with Disaster-rank weapons. Our duty as members of the army is to protect our land and its people, and we must do that as effiecently as possible hence why you see less guns amongst you" She said pointing it out the obvious lack of hot weapons

"SSS-rank creatures have shown a great resistance to such weapons however a well place sniper shot have been known to bring them down easily. Your swords and spears have been blessed by his majesty, use them well and use them to show the enemy, the glory of Deus!!" Athena said as a weird level of adrenaline began to fill the air

"For Deus!!" The army shouted

"For His majesty!!"

The chants continued for a few seconds before Athena turned around and pointed straight towards the portal and immediately heavy thuds were heard as the army marched in unison into the battlefield.

"How are they doing that? none of them have received any military training" Kingsley asked at the surprising level of order and neatness in the formation.

....

Back to the present,

"Sir Jerry, the enemy has come and its as his majesty predicted... they all have SSS-ranked range talents" a Governor reported to the young man who could be seen sitting in front of a small tent.

"Send the Disaster-class to the front... their aura alone should make them hesitate, it seems like this battle wouldn't be done in an instant" Jerry replied

"As you wish, sir"

"By the way, i heard that majority of the Elves on the team are new summons, is that true?" Jerry asked

"All of them are new summons, His majesty said it would serve as good training for them" The governor replied

"Then lets begin training them... they already have the skills of a warrior, a bit more specialized training would be learnt quickly" Jerry suggested.

"I'll gather the army"

"Thank you" Jerry sad as he picked up the long gun beside him

He skillfully handled the gun as he dismantled it and began cleaning it for a bit before recoupling it.

...

The battle between the [Deus] Empire and the [Human] Alliance shall commence.

Due to the size of participants, the battle shall be fought in a war-style. Duration is unlimited and all forms of tactics are allowed.

Winner takes all belonging to the loser party including but not limited to, all territories, levels, talents etc

...

"Just as his majesty expected" Jerry said before leaving the tent
