Alright, can you handle your city? I pondered before adding, How much do the other two armies have?

At least the same number of army he sent, And if I can hold up, would I ask you for help?

Then… What will I get from that? I knew this was a perfect way for that bastard to slip past the tight net I arranged around his neck. I also was desperate to get any souls from any place.

But these were all my own reasons. That Selvator didn’t know any of that. So why wouldn’t I try to get anything back from him?

Aren’t we allies?

And I fulfilled all my responsibilities so far I wasn’t shaken by his old tactic to get away, Besides I already gave you that mega gate. You should be able to move your forces from your world to here, right?

I can’t do that on such a scale he paused for a minute and I remained all silent. To bring such a force I need to pay a hefty price from blessing points. I can’t do that now!

Even with his covered up plea, I wasn’t shaken. Dude, if you wanted my help here, you needed to pay for it.

Of course he didn’t know that if he refused I’d step in to help. After all, my enemy was trying to run away and it was a big chance to kill him.

Least he knew that. Or else he would have just remained silent and never spoke again.

Alright, how much do you want this time?

The same price for a mega gate I sent my answer instantly.

This…

I’m going to save your mega gate from falling. It’s easier for me to wait for it to fall and then resell it back to you. So what do you think?

I didn’t mention Wryly and my deal with him. If I did, that dude might take it as a betrayal from me for now.

After saving his as* here, he wouldn’t have the ability to ask for more mega gates anytime soon. That would temporarily solve the problem of my deal with Wryly and his paragon.

Alright, but I won’t be able to take more mega gates just as expected. I grinned when I read that message, in a pure and honest way.

Sure, I can handle it I sent before adding, How long will that army take to come to you?

One hour at most

I’ll come by when they attack

He didn’t know that I saved bookmarks in all the cities I fought in so far. Going from one city to another wasn’t a problem.

The problem here lied with Wryly and his forces. I could jump alone, but how would I use him for the best?

“Hey, come here for a sec,” in a few minutes, my mind already found a way to best utilise this warmonger dude.

Once he came, I started to narrate what Fang told me. His eyes showed his disappointment the moment I told him that I couldn’t bring him with me there.

But once I told him about the role I wanted him to play, it seemed like his eyes had life reignited into them.

“Sure bro, leave them for me,” he patted on my shoulders while giving me a bright smile. “But if I need support, I’ll ask for you to come.”

“Just don’t risk something you can’t control,” I nodded, “I can come here and then go to your aid. So give or take half an hour before I would come to your help. Provided that I won’t be entangled in a bigger fight.”

“Damn! I just want to come and take part in such big fights!” he waved his big sledgehammer in the air, while giving me a dangerous vibe.

That dude… it seemed his second most weakness besides Succubus’ race was his addiction to fighting.

“Alright, be ready to move when I give you the signal,” I said before calling back my warriors and then my chariot. We both landed heavily on the ground before he laughed.

“Don’t worry bro, I won’t let those bastards have their way this time.”

I wasn’t truly worried about him. I only cared about the big deal I had with him. Plus he was my only contact with that mysterious human in the middle parts of this continent.

I needed her help. After all, I wanted to establish a grand organisation that would lead all humans in this apocalypse. Like the other races, we should face these harsh times united to achieve bigger goals.

I took out my staff before using the bookmark of Poughkeepsie. That illusionist archlord would definitely aim towards that direction.

After all, his attack over the mega gate city of Paterson was a fluke. He knew he was doomed. This fight wasn’t about mega gates at all but about his life.

So I would be truly speechless if he went to Paterson city and started a big war there. Besides, Poughkeepsie city was just north of Middletown city.

There were two great armies heading directly towards these two cities. That meant he would feel more secure being there.

Everything pointed to that direction as the main route of his escape. Yet I didn’t lower my guard. I simply sent a message for my girl back to Jersey City, asking her to dispatch part of the forces up north and try to form a semi-circular barricade between Hackensack city from one side, Newark, Bloomfield, and Jersey city from another side.

Like this I tightened the net around that dude. Let’s see how he would manage to slip between my closing up net.

As from the East, I had it covered by Wryly troops. After all, their task was simple… They just had to go west and attack Hackensack city when the big fights started.

“Now, it’s time to summon more fallen gods!” As I reached Poughkeepsie city, I started first to summon five more fallen gods. After all, each fallen god of mine was enough to hold an entire city against any army.

And by this I got ten ready to deploy gods, and this time I summoned two of the other two here and one of the lightning fallen gods.
