Wizard World Irregular

Chapter 1048: Peace Was Never An Option [Part 1]



Somewhere in the realm of Arkanthos...

"How's our campaign in Caldurthia?" A Black Gargoyle with golden stripes on his body asked.

The one who spoke sat on the Obsidian Throne, and he was none other than the Gargoyle Emperor, Obelith, the ruler of Gargoyles in the Realm of Arkanthos.

"We have the upper hand in our surprise attack," a Red Gargoyle replied. "They're now holed up in their capital city, making their last stand. If we send more reinforcements, we will probably conquer their realm within two to three days."

"Good," Obelith smiled. "What of the other realms we're targeting? Janvidr should have fallen by now, no? I have sent more than enough manpower to finally kill that Giantess who kept on getting in our way. That old hag should have died long ago, but she is as stubborn as a cockroach."

A Black Gargoyle shuddered, but it understood that it needed to give its report.

"T-The campaign in Janvidr ended in failure, Your Majesty," the Black Gargoyle replied. "Half of our forces have been wiped out. The rest didn't even get to enter because the Giantess, Xanda, sealed the entrance to her domain using her seal and authority."

"... What did you say?" Obelith asked icily. "Did I hear it right? Even with all that manpower, you still failed to conquer and add Janvidr to the worlds under our banner?"

"Y-Your Majesty, please forgive us," the Black Gargoyle stuttered. "If only the entrance wasn't sealed, we would have managed to kill the Giantess and offer her severed head to you as proof of our conquest. Please, give me one more cha-craaaah!"

The Black Gargoyle wasn't able to finish whatever he was going to say next because his head was shattered by the tip of a black tail with golden stripes on its surface.

"Useless thing!" Obelith growled, making all the Gargoyles in the throne room shudder. "After all that investment, he still failed to kill that puny Demigod?! Must I do everything myself?!"

The Gargoyle Emperor glanced at his subjects, who all averted their gazes in fear that they would be the ones who would be destroyed next.

"Gather the remaining Gargoyles in Arkanthos!" Obelith ordered. "I will put an end to that blasted Xanda and rip her head off myself!"

Just as Obelith's subordinate was about to carry out his order, a wolf howl spread within the Gargoyle Citadel, which made him frown.

It was not only Obelith who was surprised by this development but also his subordinates.

"Is that a wolf howl?" the Red Gargoyle asked.

The only creatures in Arkanthos were Gargoyles, so hearing a wolf howl in their realm was unheard of... at least, until today.

But before someone could answer his question...

More wolf howls reverberated, growing in volume.

"Hah... Hahahaha!" Obelith laughed. "So the Old Hag finally reached her limit huh? Good! This saved me the trouble of going to Janvidr to end her.

"That stupid fool-if she fought me in her Realm, she could at least borrow the will of the world. It seems that she wants to die that badly, huh? All of you, come with me!"

Without waiting for their answer, the Gargoyle Emperor flew upward until he arrived at the peak of his Citadel, overlooking his empire from the sky.

His gaze was fixed on the East, where countless Giant Wolves had gathered.

At the center of them all was Xanda, wielding her Wooden Club and glaring at Obelith with fury.

"Come here, Gargoyle scum!" Xanda roared. "This will be the day of your death!"

"Delusional mongrel." Obelith sneered. "Since you are so eager to go to the afterlife, allow me to send you on your way!"

With a single thought from him, countless gargoyles emerged from the Kingdom of Gargoyles and headed in the Giantess' direction.

Although Obelith was confident that he could kill Xanda, he wasn't a fool.

If the Giantess dared to take the initiative to attack his realm, it meant that she had a trump card she could use against him.

He planned to sound things out first before finally going for the kill, which would finally pull out the thorn that had defied him for so long.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

When the two forces were about to clash against each other, the sound of War Horns and War Drums spread in the surroundings.

From within the mist that bordered the edge of the Eastern Region of Arkanthos, countless figures emerged from the mist.

Obelith narrowed his gaze as he looked at the ragtag army that numbered in the thousands.

There were Elves, Dwarves, Beastkins, and Humans, the sight of which almost made him chuckle.

"So you brought cannon fodders with you?" Obelith asked in disdain. "You should have brought more.'

A few thousands wouldn't even come close to his army that numbered in the hundreds of thousands.

Within the Realm of Arkanthos, he reigned supreme, so there was nothing for him to worry about.

"Did he just call us cannon fodders?" Lyall asked Cedric.

"He did," Cedric replied, narrowing his eyes at the arrogant Gargoyle in the distance.

"Well, he sure looks delusional enough to me," Godfrey chuckled. "What was that saying? Ah, right. Confidence is what you have before you understand the problem."

Princess Ariel, who was standing beside Godfrey giggled. "Well, then. What should we do, Your Highness?"

Ethan, who was flanked by Chloe, Illumina, and Princess Wilhelmina, summoned his Sea God's Trident and pointed it forward.

"Kill!" Ethan only said a single word, but it was exactly what everyone was thinking right

now.

The Dwarves, who were riding their mighty Mountain Goats, laughed as they charged forward, leading the cavalry.

The Elves and Beastkins weren't any slower. They headed toward the Giantess, Xanda, intending to reinforce her in battle.

"Wizards and Witches, to arms!" Professor Rinehart shouted before flying toward the sky,

followed by Professor Barret and the Grand Archmage, Edmond.

The hundreds of Elite Wizards and Witches that came along them all flew toward the sky with their flying brooms, the tips of their wand glowing with magic.

"Magistratus, show no mercy!" Wallace ordered.

Professor Rinehart and his team flew east, flanking the rest of their army.

Wallace and the Magistratus flew toward the West.

Ethan glanced at Illumina and Princess Wilhelmina, who nodded to him at the same time.

The two of them would stay behind to protect Chloe and Princess Ariel, who would use their abilities to cast supporting spells from the rear, boosting the overall performance of the entire army.
