{HAHAHAHA! I SEE! HOW AMUSING! INDEED, YOU ARE INSANE!}

Juno began stomping her front legs while her "laugh" filled the air. Most people would shiver at the terrifying sound. Few would associate humor with hearing what seemed like a million beetles scurrying about.

"You can’t be fucking serious." "Yoh! He really is talking to the monsters, isn’t he?" "Well, I’ll be damned." "I don’t even know who is crazier at this point." "This mother fucker be playing both teams all to win."

The commentary from defenders was quite brusque, but it wasn’t like I couldn’t understand them. Unfortunately, my girls didn’t. The {Kindred} links of the Ebony death stalker and the Untamed grew hot from anger. Before they could erupt, I sent them calm and affection.

’Tsk. Useless trash.’ ’They should all just die.’

The stark contrast between how my girls treated others and myself was like fire and ice. And I found it extremely romantic only I got to see their cute sides. To the rest of the world, they were extremely cold and murderous bitches. And I loved that about them.

Changing the topic, I addressed my allies, "Juno. Can you understand these bastards?"

{No. I cannot.}

The ground then began to shake as the Lizardkin army converged on our position. My party was among them as they approached. Funnily enough the monsters all gave Asura Liv a wide berth.

When she saw the Defenders, she aimed both her guns at them. Her actions immediately caused all the Lizardkin to raise their spears. Likewise my {Vassals}, avatars and the Adventurers did the same.

"Hey now!" "You mother fuckers need to chill!" "Holy fucking shit!" "Damn! That a lot of angry looking scaly ass motherfuckers!"

Funnily enough George said nothing and only stared at me as my forces expressed what they thought of the Defenders. Juno as if studying us, said nothing and merely waited.

"Liv."

At my words, she lowered her guns but remained alert. As if representing my party and the lizardkin, every similarly lowered their weapons. Like a mother fucking badass my Northerner showed such dominance even monsters knew not to mess with her.

"Son, I…"

I held my hand up as George tried to speak.

"I am not interested," I said curtly.

Taking a moment to verify the end of the battle I looked around. There was no longer any Vampire, Ghoul or Zombie remaining. However more than half of the Lizardkin died as replacement. They were very effective to use as creeps to keep the Rank F’s at bay.

"Juno, form seven groups and have your brood replenish your numbers. My people and I will serve as your escorts. Leave the vampires to us. Once you do finish doing so, we will head down to the 32nd floor. Everyone else, kill any and all vampires you see."

"Yes, my lord!" x7

{I understand.}

’[Inventory], Ebony, Ivory.’

"Leo, Nyda. Save these in your {Auto} for the duration of this campaign. Return them to me once we return to the 24th floor."

"Yes, my lord! Thank you!" x2

With only my words the large army dispersed. Lilly, Liv and Jas remained by my side however. As I knew why they wanted to remain, I didn’t try to drive them away.

Liv began undoing her Asura form and shrank back to baby Liv. The disparity of a six-armed twelve-foot-tall humanoid and a three-foot toddler would make most scratch their heads. I crouched on the ground and opened my arms becoming her into a hug.

Ecstatic like a child, she ran into my embrace. I picked her up and brushed her back to soothe her. Naturally I heaped praises on her.

"Well done, my love. You were so awesome. I am so glad you are with me."

"Hehehe! I did my best. Are you proud of me beloved?"

"Of course, why wouldn’t I be. You butchered those fuckers like sheep. It was the best!"

"HA! I will even better next time! Give me more guns!"

Hearing such things from a child was fucking weird. But it matched my family so who the hell cared what it was. With Liv safely in my arms I stood up. I held her gently being careful she didn’t fall.

My attempts caused the Northerner to giggle impishly while giving me a quick peck. I turned around and moved to join Juno. Lilly and Jas followed me like dutiful {Kindred}.

"Limitless!" a voice called out.

Perhaps annoyed that they were ignored from start to finish George walked towards me. But the fierce glare of my women warned him not to overstep. The battle earlier was the first time they saw my girls in action.

Thus, unlike before, the defenders choose their words with extreme care.

"…"

However, I didn’t bother to even reply. I just stared at them. Truthfully while I did seek them out originally, they were no longer necessary. I only wanted these Phantoms as cannon fodder.

But Juno and her army more than fulfilled that requirement. The sight of thousands of Lizardkin smashing into Zombie and Ghoul lines was amazing. It was exactly creep waves in a MOBA.

Just like in those games, I could leverage the Lizardkin as they fought off the creeps. Juno and her army would be our creeps. Thus, once my party took down the Vampires, they would be able to steam roll the undead armies with ease.

’Was this also something IRIS wanted to convey? Then should I be on the lookout for towers? Do we eventually have to hit a tree or a throne at the end?’

Ignoring my random thoughts, from a standpoint of getting an army to die down the ghouls. Trying to keep George and his group no longer had much a purpose. They could be nice additions, but they weren’t much. For one they were pathetically held down at the door.

’If you wanted your suicide to mean something you had to git good at least,’ I quipped in my mind.

"Look, I know you feel like we bailed on you. But you got to look at it from our point of view. We have been fighting these bastards for so long. To us, suddenly holding hands with them is hard. You might not know much as you just arrived but…"

"Do I look like a give a crap?" Explore more stories at novelbuddy

"Huh?"

At my sharp retort George took a step back.

"Look George. I brought you to kill vampires. So long as you do that, we are square. I expect nothing more."

"Then why are you acting like…"

"But I am a fickle bastard, you know? I saved you. A gave you a chance to fight again. At the minimum I expected you to repay more for at least one battle. Or at least demonstrate combat ability worthy of your moniker."

"…"

"You are free to make excuses all you want. But we all have to live with the consequence of our actions. Despite owning me your lives, you prioritized your own safety. Abandoning me is fine, but you all almost lost your lives without much to show for it. How you live is your right. But how I react to your actions is mine."

"…"

"I saved you all due to because you were reapers. However, if you expect me to care what happens to you fuckers beyond that is delusional. I am perfectly fine with you bastards leaving. I mean you boys are perfectly fine abandoning even your benefactor, so you have no loyalty. And competency wise you all aren’t worth much anyway."

I then looked up to Juno before I continued.

"I work on a simple principle. You fight my enemy and protect my people you are my ally. Everyone else can go to hell for all I care. Being reapers or monster, hardly makes a difference."

{I shall remember.} the Lizardkin Dragon replied as she lowered her head.

Turning back to George and his defenders they all had faces that looked like it swallowed shit.

"You six are free to do what you wish. Consider your debts to me paid. I have no need of those stuck in the past. Live and die however you wish."

I turned to Juno and called out to her. It was funny how instead of the defenders the ones I considered my allies were the monsters without soul. Without waiting for his reply, I left George and his group to their own devices.
