King of succubus

While Leonidas and his gang were trying to find the right way to do their strategies, other people were more direct than them.

That was the case for the members of the order.

Like last time, they were all present in the same meeting room, without being so.

Except for their holograms, their physical bodies were separated by planetaries distances and stars.

But unlike previous meetings, Azalea was with them; for the first time.

"Is that your decision?" Middle finger asks with an anchored face that could not be masked by his hologram.

"Yes, these people have never seen us and will never see us as their allies, but rather as cannon balls that have no other use than to be sacrificed to gain advantages over their enemies."

The voice of the person in question is none other than Azalea.

Since she had abandoned her castle, she had no other way to join the meeting than by borrowing Thumb's transmission mirror.

The latter was also standing behind her, but still dressed in her white mask which had the number one in black on its forehead.

"..."

After hearing Azalea's assertions, the other three frowned.

"You are too smart to make such mistakes, Azalea. You may don't know, but ...It's still not too late to repent."

Certainly, she did not use her transmission, but that did not mean that it was left behind.

Uranus was currently the person who used her relay to try to convince her to change her mind.

However, it was the same Uranus, who organized this meeting to correct his nonsense, under pressure from his superiors.

"Uranus, I am not addressing you, but my faithful and loyal subjects who had always worked with me until this day; seen from this angle, you have no place in this assembly." She retorts in a calm and serene voice, as always.

But despite addressing Uranus, her eyes were still on Major, who, in her, Thumb and Index's absence, held the position of leader.

But despite all these signs, Middle Finger, also called Major, was still silent and indecisive.

After a few more seconds, a delay that also allowed her to understand Annular's uncompromising decision, Azalea sighed heavily.

"Well, I will have warned you." Even if she always seemed carefree and disinterested, her eyes showed her greatest disappointment with her two former subordinates who no longer wanted to follow her.

**Lady Azalea, you must have noticed that some of us have not been faithful to you for a long time. They had already sided with them even before these people came to offer you their alliance treaties.**

She then heard Thumb's voice, who was standing behind her in the dark room, sounding in her mind by telepathy.

Even though she knew that Thumb's goal was to help her not feel too bad, she couldn't help but sigh a second time.

Seeing her sigh of guilt, Thumb continued: **They had contacted me first, but I had--

**I know, I knew all this, Prima. But... I would like to spare them the same tragedy that my species suffered billions of years ago. These people... are devoid of any empathy; however, they should be aware of this.**

**...I don't know what to say to answer this, I apologize. **

**You are not at fault; if there is one guilty person, it's me, who is at the origin of the foundation of this organization.

-That said, they follow their primitive instincts, we all tend to follow powerful people hoping that they can help us reach the top.

-I can't blame them for their decisions; in other words, I would be a hypocrite.**

Hearing her words, Thumbs, whose real name is Prima, could only raise her eyebrows slightly.

**If this is the case, I wonder what they're doing with them. This man is--

**You, who have faced this guy in the past, know what he is capable of, the others ignore this fact. On the other hand, they can't believe you, no matter your...history.** She cut her off before getting up on the chair which was in front of the transmission mirror.

"Rajakh(Major), and you too, Emilie(Annular), I have always considered you as members of my family. If possible, don't get in my way; I wouldn't like to kill someone of my descendants."

Her words were obvious to the three people who attended the meeting with her.

But before they speak, she looks at Uranus for the first time.

"As for you, Uranus, don't talk to me so familiarly while hiding under your mask of innocence. I know that you and your superiors had decimated thousands of my fellows in the past; during the great war that ended the gods' era and almost led the universe to its extinction."

-!?!?

When Uranus heard her say these words, his expression changed several times as if he were wondering how Azalea could be aware of this story that they thought they had choked in the bud.

"Haha... it's pathetic." She then added with a bitter smile. "Do you think I could ignore this fact? All those who took the lives of my fellow men, even one person, I would be able to recognize. My fellow Crystaluses' hate is not visible to others, therefore, it is indelible."

These last words put the flea in Uranus' ear. "I see." He said with a small but cruel smile.

"From what I see and heard since now, can I then conclude that you never intended to ally with us since the beginning, is that right?"

"You got it. I will never agree to ally myself with someone who has taken the life of my fellow men."

"Does this mean that you want revenge?"

Hearing his question, Azalea turns around and moves away from the mirror.

Seeing her ignore his question, Uranus' rage finally explodes. "Do you think that staying in the past will help you accomplish something? And what tells you that this bastard didn't kill yours!? Hey! You...-

He stops in mid-sentence when he sees Azalea turn towards him.

"You're right, I'm a very resentful person. It doesn't matter if I have to line up with the darkness, as long as this darkness hasn't killed my fellow men, then I don't care." She said with fierce eyes.

And for the first time, Uranus, who saw her get lost in her fury, knew that she was a threat to them.

But the distance between them, coupled with the fact that he did not know the current location of Azalea, ignited his rage at another unsuspected level.

"You're just going to get killed! Even if it's not by us, you will die of overexploitation by this bastard; I just told you, he is not someone who can be considered an ally! Don't be more stupid than you--

"See if I care!" She retorts before destroying the mirror of the transmission with a fireball.

-!!

Prima looks at her with incredulous eyes while nervously gulping her saliva.

'This woman is also another demoness disguised as a saint.' She swore in her mind with cold sweats all over her body.

Even if the others could not feel Azalea's bloodthirsty aura, Prima, next to her had not lost a crumb; hence her extreme nervousness towards Azalea.

"Let's go, Prima." The latter did not pay attention to the expression of her subordinate.

She teleported directly out of the dark room and stood above a small planet that looked more like a moon than a planet; even if it was of rank one, that is, the highest that exists after the original planets.

At the same time, Thumb appeared behind her. "Where are we going?"

"...Gather your subordinates, this place is no longer a safe place." She ignores Prima's question while tapping twice in a row on the emerald green ring on her thumb.

At the same time,

-Gruuughhhh!!!

...As the void broke into pieces, a green portal as large as the planet on which they were there a second ago, manifests itself above them.

She then looks at Prmia, who had an expression stunned by the sight of such a portal. "Do it as fast as possible."

"Y-Yes, at your command, Lady Azalea." She stutters in a striped tone while contacting her army of several thousand heads by telepathy.

"Just to be sure, how many faithful men do you have with you?"

"...One million transcendents and five hundred thousand high-ranking primordials."

"...So little as that?" Azalea frowns.

"I apologize, the others are only weak men who will have no use in this war, but also people I don't fully trust." She said, looking away from Azalea’s eyes.

"...It doesn't matter. Are they at least safe? I'm talking about the other weak men. What I wouldn't like our enemies to take the weak hostage."

Prima's eyes widened with disbelief.

Azalea smiled with derisory.

"Do you think they are not capable of it? Heh, even if I know these people more than anyone, and although I spent a millennium with them, I still don't know what level their cruelties are limited to." She mutters with an inflicted air as she remembers the cruel scenes she had witnessed before.

The next moment, other people appeared flying towards them from the small black sphere.

They belonged to both the race of demons, dragons, elves, and up to a few demonic giants who belong to the ancient race supposed to have been extinct since delustres.

But the most unexpected thing was that there were no humans, yet a very common species.

After taking a brief look at Prima's army, which looked like swarms of bees, she immediately loses interest in them.

She then turned to the giant portal that vomited a black battleship which resembled a ship belonging to the evil god in person.

"Finally, we will discuss it in more detail once we are at our destination. For now, let's prioritize immediate evacuation." As soon as she announced her verdict, she took off to the ark, half of which was already outside the portal.

Prima also ordered her men to follow her while she followed Azalea closely, guessing the latter’s intentions.

No one suspected being cramped in such as giant, instead of that, they all had difficulty believing that such an ark could exist.

'As expected from someone who lived during the gods’ era. These people have nothing to do with us.' Arrived one meter from Azalea, which was also a few dozen KM from the giant ship two-quarters of the planet under their feet, she mutters in her mind while contemplating the latter's back with fascination.

In addition, the others were also silent but with breaths full of impatience and astonishment; impatient to be on board but surprised to see such a mass defy gravity.

"It's time." After an additional minute of waiting, Azalea whispers under her tongue before vanishing in front of everyone.

But strangely, no one was worried about this detail, especially when they saw the ship's crystals lit up and the engine’s rumbling noise which sounded like a draconic roar.

Moreover, and regardless of their indescribable expressions, each of them could not help but ask themselves a single question; especially when they saw the white and translucent barrier appear around the ship.

They all knew that the shield had its source from a Levieta, in other words, they couldn't approach the ship without internal help.

But before this mystery persisted, they all found themselves on board the ship following a blinding hallo that engulfed them all at one go as if their numbers represented only one sand seed in the desert.

Even if Prima and her henchmen could not read Azalea's thoughts, they all had an idea about her destination.
