Chapter 777: Angry Devil
Lucifer lost his damn mind after the reports came in that the city of whispers had been captured in about a days battle by the army of death and both the reinforcements from middle realm and the second division commander were slain in the battle.
The devil looked at the report and then at his commanders in the war room as he banged his table and said " So the great demon commanders can\'t even hold a city for one day against an enemy attack ?
WHAT A WORTHLESS RACE YOU ALL ARE ".
Every single demon in the room felt their blood boil at this remark , however when they looked into Lucifer\'s blood red eyes their boiling blood instantly ran cold as their survival instinct took over and they became docile.
" Shakuni of the elites , great war general , excellent warrior , genius strategist who turned our OWN men against us and blasted the wall apart?
Is anyone else looking at this report? WHAT IS THIS?
WILL I HAVE TO PUT AN END TO THIS MAN MYSELF , OR DO WE HAVE COMPETENT DEMONS IN THIS ROOM WHO WILL TAKE HIM OUT? " Lucifer was completely enraged by Rudra\'s performance in the war , the ant who had escaped from his blast all those years ago had now turned into a giant and it was bothering Lucifer a lot.
The first commander of the demon army stood up as he said " I will bring you his head my lord , just give me the command ".
Lucifer\'s eyes softened looking at the first commander , he was the demon who was previously the second commander of Hades\'s army and the betrayer who turned sides and help Lucifer claim the throne of the underworld.
Not only did he assassinate the then first commander of Hades\'s army , but also ensured that all of the demon race feared and respected Lucifer for the king that he was.
Lucifer said " Not you Darius , not you , i need you in the capital ".
Darius the first commander sat down as he intently stared at one particular demon in the room as if waiting for him to accept this responsibility.
The demon did not want to take on shakuni however the intimidation that the first commander gave him made his life difficult as he was forced to accept.
" Deception King Roomie , will you accept this task? " Lucifer asked as he saw one demon stand up
Roomie was called the \' Deception king \' as he was a tier 5 demon that specialised in assassinations and was the human akin of a Hitman .
He preffered to kill his enemies by tricking them into intricate traps as his deception was an art that took months and sometimes years to perfect.
He hailed from a race of demons who only inbred and were a secluded society whose fame was for every demon being a character that was part of the king a.k.a Roomie\'s play.
One of his most popular assassinations was that of the tenth commander as one of Roomie \'s people became the commanders wife and even bore him kids before slowly and steadily getting him addicted to a particular lunch place that was built and created by roomie.
For 7 years the shop was run as an honest store until the demon commander did not suspect anything wrong with that place at all and dropped his guard after a heavy drinking session one day.
That was the day the commander never walked out of the restaurant and roomie and his race became wanted throughout hell.
It was only after Lucifer pardoned roomie to kill a commander by making him the tenth commander that the bounty on his head was voided.
However it was only now that roomie was asked to take his first assassination mission by the state and the pressure from the first commander meant that he had no option to reject.
Saying yes reluctantly, he accepted the task .
*********
( Rudra\'s POV)
Rudra had to deal with the population of over 20 million demons after the fight was over as he gave them 2 days to vacate the city.
Rudra did not want to displace these many people as they had Thames river on one side and beast territory on the other which meant that with the city destroyed they had nowhere to go.
However thankfully the demons were kind to their own species atleast and the migrants were allowed to cross the Thames bridges by the other side as Rudra also respected the enemy\'s heart and did not try anything underhanded during the migration.
After that the bridges were raised again and the battle lines were cleared again. Although the army of death had gained complete control over the eastern side of the Eastern map on the east coast of the river thames , there was still lots of wars to be fought ahead.
Hades was thrilled by the victory of the army and showered Rudra with lots of praises, due to his ingenious strategy the total losses in the fight for the city numbered only 6.4 million troops with majority of deaths being in tier 1 and tier 2 troops and only 4 tier 4 deaths.
It was a pretty good result considering the difficulty of capturing a city and the best part was that the enemy forces lost two tier 5 commanders from their ranks.
With the fall of the city of whispers came a short break for Rudra as after over a full month
of gaming continuously he logged out of Omega and went back to his home and to his wife after a long time away from home.
Little did he know that while he was away , Naomi had already visited the doctor several times and knew about the gender of the coming baby.
As when Rudra came back home he was welcomed to a gender reveal party.
