Arpious of the Planes

Before I could [Inspect] the other heroes, the Light Hero gathered a massive beam of light within his palm. I could immediately tell it was dangerous to my army but not my commanders…

Maybe I should see what he can do first.

The commanders weren't able to stop the attack in time due to the massive distance between the Light Hero and them. A massive beam of light expanded from his hand and shot towards Zoe at an alarming rate… but of course, that isn't enough to kill Zoe.

She immediately ducked down with the soldiers behind, instantly disintegrating into ash.

The Light Hero had eyes colder than ice. No, it wasn't just cold eyes; he despised the detestable monsters that tried to go against him. For whatever reason, when I thought of this, my blood started to boil.

Despair wrapped around my army while fresh morale filled the human army. They looked at their savior and hero before charging right at my armies, pumped full of adrenaline and high spirits.

Ah… this will be fun… [Evolution Switch].

My Lammassu body erupts from my tiny feathered body. It was like the Lammassu body was ready to get out at any moment, thus making me appear right behind the Healing Hero in just a split second.

"Bye, bye,"

Since the human stats were much lower and the heroes hadn't applied their Body Enhancement skills yet, I was able to shove my arm right through the smiling woman's body. The woman coughed up blood and looked at my arm that went straight through her chest.

She couldn't even retaliate as the light in her eyes soon drifted off.

I take a peek at the war and see some humans fall to their knees while some make whimpers of despair. A smile creeps onto my mouth at the pathetic sight of the human army. On the other hand, my kingdom's soldiers raise their weapons into the air and cut down their enemies even faster than before.

I rip my hand out of the Healing Heroes corpse and drink her blood. The heroes looked at me with multiple emotions, but it was mostly made up of fear. They were shocked at how such a strong monster was able to get past their detection range.

Remember how I said the heroes had multiple emotions before fear? Well, the Light Hero was clearly seething in anger. Yin never informed me of their relationship, but I could only assume she was his wife or girlfriend.

My grin grew even wider as I gulped down the thick red blood. It was delectable and smooth as it flowed into my stomach.

"Hehehehe… HAHAHAHA!"

I burst out in laughter after seeing how many notifications popped up in front of me.

"IT SEEMS HUMANS REALLY DO HAVE MORE SKILLS THAN MONSTERS!"

I scan the area and see the commanders charge right at the heroes. It would still take quite a while for them to get here, and the Light Hero has already activated a skill that seems deadly.

A massive sword of light, triple the size of the Light Hero himself, had surrounded what I assumed to be his soul equipment. It was a regular medieval sword with a yellow blade and dark yellow handle.

The soul equipment was covered with a clear, yellow frame of a massive greatsword. It didn't look like aura, but more like it was a solid piece of yellow metal.

Speak of the devil…

The massive sword was then enveloped in a yellow aura that shone brightly on the battlefield. It was like the sun came out in an instant.

The hero's muscles bulged out as he swung down on me, who was still drinking the delicious blood. I wasn't so naive as to not know about the Light Heroes attack, but three figures were on their way here, and they should be able to stop it in time.

VWOOM

The massive sword ripped through the air, plummeting towards me. I also noticed the other heroes were hesitantly readying their attacks for if I block the giant sword.

"YOU MUST BE THE STRONGEST HERE! IF WE KILL YOU  DETESTABLE THING, THEN WE'LL WIN! DIE, YOU MURDERER! The light hero shouts in anger.

CLANG

A massive longsword about 2/3 the size of my height had stopped the massive glowing sword of light in its tracks. A silhouette with two glowing turquoise eyes stared at the glowing light sword, which had been stopped with only one arm.

"Weak," Aika's face crumpled in disappointment.

I used the hero's moment of shock to [Inspect] them all at the same time… or what's left of the heroes at least.

"Arpious, you gotta pay more attention," Kumo says, appearing right beside me.

"I was. It's just I knew you would save me,"

"Hmmm… really? Or did you want to give us the chance to show off?"

"Don't know?" I shrug off Homura's question.

She was spot on. To induce as much fear and despair into the heroes, we need to show the vast difference in our abilities. If we can make the heroes back up in the slightest, the remaining soldiers still hanging onto a sliver of hope will fall off the edge.

Plus, if any assassins are watching over this war and trying to scale our power for the king, he'll give the king false information. What I mean by false is the amount of power that we were using, which is about 75% for my wives and 50% for myself.

"Hmmm… why is an elf, amazonian, and dwarf among humans?" Homura says, rubbing her chin.

The ones Homura called out flinched slightly before taking a step back.

"W-w-w-w-what are those statuses!" The dwarf shouts in shock, falling on his ass which landed in the murky blood-red water.

It seems they just inspected all of us. A mistake on their part for being too cocky. It seems they haven't felt a true loss yet.

Even the Fire Hero, who was cocky just seconds ago, backed away in fear. He noticed the change in himself and tried to correct it by readying his spear and slowly moving towards us. The other heroes got into their position as the Light Hero withdrew the giant sword made of light.

The 5 challenges that were designated for Zehar to kill had been long gone, and they ran towards the army to try and help.

Hoping Zehar noticed the 5 challenges; I opened my mouth once again.

"Hey. Answer her question… Why are you with these detestable humans?" I ask Homura's question once again, releasing my bloodlust about halfway.

The trio felt a drop of sweat run down their neck as they gave glances at each other and decided not to reply.

Hmmm… it seems using bloodlust wasn't enough, and I don't want to use my presence skill… whatever, I'll mark them off as traitors.

"H-HOW DO YOU HAVE SO MUCH FORBIDDEN MAGIC! NO! IT DOESN'T MATTER. WE HAVE TO KILL YOU WOMEN TO AVENGE SAMANTHA!" The Light Hero shouts, seething in anger.

I ignored him and wiped off the murky water that got on my face.

"Y-YOU BITCH! ANSWER ME-"

"Shut the hell up," My wives and I coincidentally say synchronously.
