Chapter 365: Battle At Makari Capital Part 5
Pov Ivan:
I and the others are still inside the castle grounds, while the others were still getting ready to blow up the connection points, we were doing our part of the plan too.
Rakan was sent along with Beatriz to take a look at the magical defenses of the castle he created.
"My heart is racing, I'm so happy it feels like I'm floating." (Lilith)
"You're floating..." (Jade)
"..." (Lilith)
"Looks like I still need to practice better using my wings, the master was right when he said it's hard to control wings." (Lilith)
Lilith has been impatient since she left the Dungeon, she knows her husband is here inside the castle and is anxious to find him.
She didn't even notice that she spread her wings and started to float, everyone is looking at her not understanding how she manages to smile in a situation like this, but I think they are still underestimating her madness.
"Everyone stay prepared, for the time that has passed Beatriz and Rakan should return soon." (I)
p<anda> It was just me talking and the two of them went through the door wearing soldiers' clothes that they took into this room. </anda>
"You took more than an hour, I thought it would be faster." (I)
"There are many soldiers around here, it took me a while to give the slow-acting poison to everyone, I also managed to give the poison to some Demons and Vampires who were leading the soldiers, none of them had strength above Grade +A." (Beatriz)
"As always Lyra does an excellent job with her poisons." (Beatriz)
"My daughter is a genius, of course, she always does a good job." (I)
I can't help but smile on my face every time I hear someone praising my dear daughter, but I soon remember that I still have work to do.
"Rakan, did you manage to sabotage the castle's defenses?" (I)
"Of course I did, I was the one who created these magical defenses." (Rakan)
"I did just as you asked, but I left only the defenses active while I destroyed the attack magic circles, I also destroyed the control function, so they can't control the spells installed in the castle." (Rakan)
"Couldn't you have transferred that control to us?" (I)
"No, that's the best I can do, besides they should find out what I did soon." (Rakan)
"It doesn't matter, look out the window, the Suns are already rising, so we should hear the explosions." (Vanessa)
"But we need to wait until the master roars before acting." (Vanessa)
With everyone watching the sky lighten, they stand in position waiting for the signal, a few minutes later the explosions started, but we kept waiting until we heard the master roar.
ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
We hear the master's roar, but it has no effect on us as we are his servants, only Sapphire was a little affected by fear, but it only lasted a few seconds as the master is far away and she has a strength close to his.
When we were about to continue the invasion of the castle, I feel something coming towards us from the sky and I look there, it was the master who had arrived flying.

Pov Zenos:
On the way to the castle, I approached Nix to talk to her while Layla sat on my shoulder.
"Nix, I want you to step into my shadow, you know the plan." (I)
"All right." (Nix)
Nix steps into my shadow, after which I spread my Dragon Wings and look at the others.
"Try to keep up the pace, we have to speed up to meet the others before entering the castle." (I)
After saying that I start flying towards the castle as Jay, Kira, Elsaris, and Lilian manage to keep their pace as they jump from roof to roof faster.
When we passed the castle walls I saw many bodies on the ground, many of these bodies were deformed and looked more like monsters than people.
I see Ivan and the others gathered near the bodies start to head towards the castle, but suddenly Ivan and Sapphire turn towards me as I approach to land next to them.
"The master was quick, I was anxious for the master to arrive quickly to fight at his side." (Ibuki)
I pat Ibuki's head as I turn to the others seeing Kira, Jay, Elsaris, and Lilian along with them.
"We are all together, let's start the final part of the plan, have no mercy on the enemies, kill them all." (I)
We all run to one of the walls that Rakan pointed out, so I punch with all my strength making a passage for us, just like I asked Rakan to disable the defenses in some parts to facilitate our entry.
As soon as I passed the wall two maids tried to attack me, but both lost their heads before approaching.
"(Ibuki's sword attacks are getting faster, it looks like she has been training diligently.)" (I)
When we entered the castle I use my detection skill to sense everything in the castle, I feel 4 strong presences in a large room closer to the top of the castle, one of these presences was very strong and released a great bloodlust directed at me, he can me notice by the way.
I also feel hundreds of weaker presences in various parts of the castle, some are coming here running.
"Lilith, you said you attended some of the extremist meetings with your husband, right?" (I)
"Yes, he used these meetings to find new ways to humiliate or torture me in public." (Lilith)
"Have you ever seen King Makari at these meetings?" (I)
"Only twice, he always sat next to my husband and two others, one of those people being a bald black-skinned Vampire and the other person being the Queen a Demon." (Lilith)
"Did those four people seem to be the leaders?" (I)
"Yes, the others seemed to respect and fear the four." (Lilith)
"So I already know where they are." (I)
