1 Year and 5 Months Later
One Year and five months passed from my wedding with Vena and Fia. We have started living together, as Vena and Fia and both of them moved to Castle Fuerig.
Both of them have reached Satan-Class after I invested a lot of resources for them. I managed to obtain two High-Grade Demonic Energy Crystals and devised a ritual to help them reach Satan-Class. Vena and Fia have both started training with Hela to improve their close combat skills.
I have practiced the Fate Algorithm and mastered Volume 1 of it. I can now use one prediction per year, and percentage probability has gotten more precise, which of good. Aside from that, I spent a lot of time studying magic, upgrading Arcanotech, training with Hela, or having a threesome with Vena and Fia, one of the most pleasurable things in my life.
Right now it was morning, laying in my bed, half-naked with Vena and Fia in a similar state.
Suddenly as I was enjoying the nice morning, I heard somebody was running in the halls. My reflexes were superior, so it wasn't a problem. The sounds were nearing until my doors opened, and I saw General Zagan who entered my room.
I knew the stern man who followed protocols above everything. He would never enter Lord's room without knocking, only when...
"My Lord, one hour ago, Satan Asmodeus has attacked Sistine Chapel, during the Conclave of Church. He killed Supreme Pontiff and the majority of Cardinals before he was fended off. In retaliation, Heaven has sent down Angel Legions and killed every devil and majority of devil worshippers on Earth. Forces of the Grigori are attacking some weaker Noble Houses as we speak."
"So it begins."
I said quietly, as General Zagan nodded his head.
We were at the war.
"Vena, Fia I know you are awake, we need to mobilize and enter a war state. Grayfia immediately shut down all teleportation circles outside our territory and use, only the major ones with more protection. Send orders to all City Governors, to switch on Wards and Protective Spell Formation Barriers. Vena, send orders to all our ventures to focus only on manufacturing war supplies and weapons, create reserves, and send emergency packets to all cities and towns."
I said in hurry.
"General Zagan, call a meeting with all Generals and Marshall Hela. Activate all Magic Towers around the demilitarized zone with Fallen Angels of Grigori, they would strike soon. Mobilize all of our soldiers and declare martial law and state of war, of the highest level."
General Zagan then bowed and left the room while I sat down on the bed, as I felt Vena and Fia hugging me from behind, as their brėȧsts pressed on my back.
"War has started at least ten years early. They won't be prepared."
Venelana said to cheer me up.
"Neither are we, at least for some exceptions, but the majority of Noble Houses are in a state of absolute chaos, only recently, Zeo has gotten a grasp on them, and preparations for war take years, not one."
Countered Grayfia, and she was right.
Neither side was prepared.
But contrary to Heaven, Devils and Grigori were absolutely disorganized. I doubt we will have even some kind of unified military command, as Four Satans are unavailable, due to seal with Trihexa, so all devils would be divided into several factions that would be acting separately.
Probably Houses of Beelzebub, Asmodeus, Leviathan, Lucifer, and Bael. All other devils would fall under the leadership of these five.
"Fortunately Yahweh won't enter the battle, as he would be pre-occupied with Trihexa, that fight would go on for years. Only shame it won't kill those four idiots."
I grumbled.
"Grayfia, Venelana, even though I am not fond of this idea, both of you will soon need to head out to the battlefield and fight for the Underworld. I will ȧssign you to command one of my Legions."
I said, while I was not a fan of sending my wives frontline, both of them were very strong Satan-Class Devils so it was best for them to be on the battlefield. Just their presence could boost up morale by a good amount, and not talking about their combat prowess, which could take head on two or three Ten-Winged Cadre-Class Angels, with ease.
Both of my wives were warriors, survivors, and winners. They were not like the majority of the Noble Ladies who did nothing and just participated in the tea parties.
"Don't worry Zeo... we will be okey."
Said Vena as she rubbed her head against my back.
"She is right, additionally Underworld doesn't have as many Satan-Class devils as Heaven has Ten-Winged Cadre-Class Angels, not mentioning Heaven has several geniue Twelve-Winged Archangels and many Artificial ones. Even without Yahweh, they still have an edge over us, fortunately, their numbers are not that high, as many are Falling to become Fallen Angels."
Stated Grayfia as she leaned over and kissed me passionately.
"I know, that where Arcanotech comes in. With my Arcanotech inventions, almost every Noble House has at least basic defensive and offensive Arcanotech and some of them even have Voidships and Mechanical Legions."
I have done everything I could do to raise the collective strength of all Noble Houses, be it selling them Arcanotech at a good price or creating and spreading an entirely new Magic System, the Tier Magic System.
Still, the forces of Yahweh are overwhelming even without him personally joining the battle.
After that, all three of us wore our clothing, and I went to Military HQ to meet Hela and all Generals, so we could devise a strategy.
