OVERLORD: The Second Supreme Being

Chapter 160: Chapter 159: Deploying Troops



Inside the imperial capital, Emperor Jircniv of the Empire paced back and forth in the throne room.

"Bang!"

Jircniv kicked a vase, and it fell to the ground, shattering.

"Sending me to attack Slane Theocracy is clearly just a death sentence."

Slane Theocracy was widely recognized as the strongest human nation. With its long history and powerful figures in charge, each of the Six Scripture was a formidable force.

The Empire's only notable force was Fluder.

Currently, Fluder was busy following the Sorcerer King around, completely ignoring Jircniv.

On the Sorcerer King's side, he was extremely frustrated by Fluder's demand for the Origin of Magic.

All the magic he knew was from the game, and he really didn't know how to teach others magic. He could only keep distracting Fluder with various strange books.

But when faced with Peroroncino's orders, Jircniv had no choice but to obey.

"By the way, maybe I can find Quagoa King and ask them to help? With their assistance, our chances of success would definitely improve."

Without hesitation, Jircniv set off to the Quagoa Kingdom.

Through Jircniv's reasoning and persuasive words, Quagoa King understood the principle of "if the lips are gone, the teeth will be cold."

If the Empire were to fail, his own tribe would likely be next. If they launched an attack together, perhaps their chances of victory would increase.

Quagoa King was somewhat generous. Despite his tribe only having 10,000 members left, he quickly assembled an elite force of 2,000 soldiers.

........

In the Slane Theocracy, Shalltear had slaughtered more of the Slane Theocracy's soldiers but hadn't encountered any special forces or particularly strong individuals. Under Peroroncino's orders, she returned to Nazarick.

Peroroncino teleported to Carne Village to inform Anri.

He had discovered the true identities of the people who had originally attacked the village.

They had disguised themselves as members of the Slane Theocracy, and the purpose of attacking the kingdom's villages was to lure the Captain of the Kingdom there, then kill him.

Moreover, the Empire had already prepared to send troops to attack Slane Theocracy, which would allow Anri to strike against the Slane Theocracy under the guise of seeking revenge.

However, to Peroroncino's surprise, Anri did not seem interested in seeking vengeance.

"Lord Peroroncino, thank you very much for telling me the truth, but my life is fine as it is now. I don't want to see anyone else I know sacrifice themselves."

"Is this the true nature of a mother? Willing to let go of a blood-soaked grudge, not wanting to deepen the hatred."

"Since you don't intend to take revenge, I'll leave now. But if you suddenly want to get revenge, I will arrange for you to meet with the Empire's...," Peroroncino said before leaving.

In reality, Peroroncino just wanted to test how effective the Goblins' combat abilities were in actual battle. Since the founding of the Ainz Ooal Gown Sorcerer Kingdom, Anri and her group had not fought any wars.

Anri didn't want to go, and Peroroncino didn't insist, leaving directly.

However, the Goblin Assassins who were protecting Anri overheard Peroroncino's words. They quickly reported it to the Goblin Strategist.

"A soldier dies for someone who understands them. Anri General's enemies are our enemies. Anri General must have said that because she was afraid we would sacrifice ourselves. Does anyone fear sacrificing?"

"No!"

"That's right! Dying on the battlefield is the honor of every warrior!"

"Those bastards actually killed Anri General's parents, this grudge cannot go unpunished!"

"Right! It cannot be left unresolved!"

A group of Goblins gathered together and discussed.

"Then let's go meet General Anri."

The Goblin Strategist led the Goblins to meet Anri.

"Is there something important you all need to tell me?" Anri asked, looking at the group of Goblins.

"General Anri, we heard what the lord said. None of us fear death. As long as we can avenge General Anri's parents, our lives are insignificant."

"Yes! The grudge of killing a parent cannot be forgiven, avenge them!"

"Avenge them!"

"General Anri, we are all warriors. The battlefield is our home. Without battle, we feel restless. If this continues for long, it won't be good for any of us!"

The Goblin Strategist began to bring up other matters, trying to persuade Anri to deploy troops.

Anri's younger sister, Nem, overheard the conversation. Facing their parents' death, she felt an immense sense of unwillingness. Thinking about how their parents had died protecting them made her heart ache. She had no power back then, but now she had the ability, and with the right timing and circumstances, why not choose revenge?

"Sister, why don't you avenge Mom and Dad!" Nem's eyes were filled with the bitterness of their parents' death.

"Sigh! Since you all feel this way, I agree."

Anri's village, Carne Village, had only about 1,000 people, but the Goblin army numbered more than 5,000, which meant that many of the Goblins had to put down their weapons and work in agriculture.

This way of life was certainly not what the Goblins wanted. However, they were absolutely loyal to Anri. Anri's orders were everything to them, and they would never oppose them.

Most of the Goblins' food came from the aid of the Sorcerer Kingdom, and this assistance was counted as part of the potion research costs by Nfirea.

And so, Anri informed Lupusregina and made preparations for the march.

Peroroncino instructed Lupusregina to relay the message and wait for the direct teleportation to them.

........

At this moment, Peroroncino was observing Bukana, the captain of the Holocaust Scripture, one of the Six Scripture, who had been brought back by Shalltear.

Peroroncino waved his hand, signaling Shalltear to release the mental control.

"Who are you?!" Bukana took out her staff.

Peroroncino waved his hand again, and like Divine Chant, she was unable to cast any magic.

Meanwhile, Divine Chant, her eyes filled with tears, was adjusting her clothes.

She had just stood up when her legs trembled, and she fell back down to the ground.

Tears began to fall from Divine Chant's eyes once more.

Bukana wasn't a fool; she had a general idea of what had happened here.

It seemed that Divine Chant had been... taken by this man in front of her.

"Asshole! Die!" Bukana raised her staff and tried to cast magic, but nothing happened.

"Magic doesn't work for some reason. It seems like he did something!" Divine Chant said to Bukana.

The two of them recognized each other—one was a member of the Black Scripture, and the other from the Holocaust Scripture. Their relationship was probably neutral, but they knew each other's names and appearances.

"What do you want to do?" Bukana looked at Peroroncino and asked.

Peroroncino remained silent, but Bukana already know what he want to do.

"Asshole!" Bukana immediately raised her staff and struck at him.

But in the next second, her staff was shattered into six pieces by Shalltear's fingernails.

It was then that Bukana realized Shalltear had been standing right behind her.

Bukana finally understood why they hadn't killed her—it was because they had other plans.

Bukana charged toward Peroroncino, trying to land a punch on him.

"Kneel!"

Upon hearing the command, Bukana's legs buckled and she fell to her knees.

"Ugh!"

Bukana's eyes widened in shock, and with a firm resolve, she gritted her teeth.
