In the darkness, a tattooed Ogre with a pair of yellow eyes walked out. It was Polio.
“Welcome, Sherlock.”
Polio walked out from the dust and stood before Sherlock.
Sherlock maintained his posture. He didn’t feel short with his five-meter height when he stood in front of Polio.
“You won’t even take along your Lord Overseer? I remember the first time we met, you were cordial. This is making me sad.”
Sherlock sighed and showed an expression of regret.
“It seems like you already knew my plan. When did it start?”
“Ah, since you started meeting Morgan at Bankazia.”
Sherlock thought for a while and said, “Morgan found a book left by Michelangelo, one that depicted detailed methods for controlling the Ogres. According to the relic of Michelangelo, there is no 100% method for controlling them. Michelangelo brought the seeds of the Underworld with him and incited the war between the two worlds, depending on the loyalty of the Ogres to fight for him. I figured that you let Morgan find the book intentionally.”
“That’s right, I let him take a look. That superior Devil thought he used a lot of effort to find it.”
Polio smiled and said, “It has only been a few thousand years, and the standard of superior Devils has dropped.”
“It’s not that bad. I know of a few superior Devils who have good standards.” Sherlock recalled, but he returned from his thoughts and said, “Let’s talk about an important topic. Morgan thought he could use you to control the Ogres. The book that he found was supposed to show the method for controlling you. After releasing you from Bankazia, he had you infiltrate here. After the start of the Dungeon War, you were supposed to control the Ogres and attack the interior of Eternal Kingdom. Perhaps your initial suggestion was for me to control the Ogres and have them guard Eternal Kingdom. When you discovered that I was connecting the Sighing Wilderness and Eternal Kingdom with a Teleport Portal, you decided to take over the portal and send the Ogres directly to my Dungeon. Is that correct? Did you suggest that?”
Polio didn’t respond. Looking at Polio’s expression, Sherlock thought that he was right.
“Hmm, not a bad plan. I have a few questions.”
Polio interrupted and said, “Are you going to ask me why I betrayed you? Hehe, do you really think that you’re Michelangelo? I was never loyal to you. Michelangelo is dead, and his power belongs to me!”
“No, I’m not going to ask you such trivial questions. I’m willing to give you the power to destroy the world. Unfortunately, the memories and power can’t be given to you just like that. Do you know Alexandria?”
Sherlock brushed the dust from his shoulder, not expecting Polio to answer.
“Alexandria? The son of the Grand Duke? Why would I know such a paltry character?”
“You don’t seem to know the inner workings.”
Sherlock nodded and moved his body.
“Prepare yourself, I intend to beat you up. You wasted a lot of my resources and made me very tired. I’m very angry, so I’ll not have any mercy. Don’t blame me if I beat you to death.”
“Ha? What nonsense are you saying… Ooh?”
Polio laughed loudly. Before he finished speaking, Sherlock flashed in front of him. Sherlock’s fist split the air and carried a trail of afterimages as he punched Polio’s face. His talking mouth was distorted by the punch, and his teeth flew out.
“Pom!”
With a loud impact, Polio’s body flew in the direction of the punch. Just as Polio’s leg lifted off the ground, Sherlock performed an opposite turning back kick and hit Polio’s back heavily.
“Boom—!”
Polio’s body flew out this time and crashed into a Fortress wall, and the wall collapsed, becoming a ruin.
Sherlock adjusted his clothing after executing the two moves, then walked towards Polio.
Sherlock moved the debris, which revealed the rough palm of an Ogre. He grabbed the Ogre’s wrist and pulled him out.
The ruin collapsed with crumbling sounds after the Ogre was pulled out.
Sherlock looked at the lifeless body, the listless wide-opened eyes, the distorted mouth, and the body that was deformed at a ninety-degree angle.
The tattooed Ogre was dead, with no remaining breath.
“Tsk, the characteristic of this Devil is troublesome,” Sherlock muttered to himself as he examined the tattooed Ogre’s body.
Black mist flowed towards Sherlock from all directions. Within the mist were many yellow pupils.
“Such strong physical power. Only my previous master had such power. I don’t have a physical body! Don’t underestimate the power of the 72 Devil Gods!”
Polio’s voice sounded hollow after leaving the Ogre’s body.
The black mist spun around Sherlock like a tornado, but the mist dissipated as Polio screamed, seeming to be in pain.
“How can it be! What is that?” Polio shouted.
The black mist fled in all directions, but before Polio’s black mist flew too far, he bounced back as though he had hit a glass wall.
Sherlock stood his ground, and a shining Mana Rune Formation appeared underneath his feet and extended outwards by about 100 meters. That was the allowed space for the black mist.
Sherlock smiled and looked at Polio.
“Who do you think provided the Mana Rune Formation used to imprison you in Bankazia? It was me. Are you happy? Are you surprised?”
Sherlock put on finger sleeves that were drawn with dense Mana Rune Formations. When two finger sleeves touched, the light rays of the Mana Rune Formations became brighter. They weren’t ordinary finger sleeves.
Sherlock walked towards the mist and said, “I told you that I wouldn’t be merciful. Don’t be beaten to death.”
…
In the Castle of Victoria City.
Lilo drank her tea gracefully, and the three Hamsters had a towel draped on their arms. They were serving Lilo afternoon tea.
The chaotic situation outside was in stark contrast to the peaceful afternoon tea.
“D*mn! Why are there so many Humans?” someone said in the Underworld common language.
“Gosh! These monsters are brutal! Victoria City is being demolished!” said a gamer in the Surface World common language.
“Hold the line! All hold the line! Don’t let the Ogres breakthrough!” said someone in the Surface World common language.
“Destroy the obstacles! Kill those Fairies who are using Mana! Kill them!” an Ogre said in the Underworld common language.
“TakeASpearHit! D*mn you! Why are you stealing my kills?” cursed a gamer in the Surface World common language.
…
There were various explosions, as well as the laughter and furious bellows of Ogres.
Lilo wiped her lips and stood up, walking towards the door.
“Why is the battle taking so long…”
Lilo was very unhappy.
