76 Eradicate (1)

/General POV\

Shuka was currently leading a large group consisting of the leaders of the alliance guilds.

7 leaders total, each followed by two adamantine adventurers.

21 people followed behind Shuka as the looted the ruins.

Greed was the only thing on their minds, but Shuka was still thinking about what Eden had planned.

She already decided to put her trust in him, for the sake of her revenge.

Putting that aside, for now she just killed any monsters that ran towards her while leaving the leaders safety in their bodyguards hands.

It remained that way as they got deeper and deeper into the ruin.

Eventually they reached the biggest room they've seen so far.

There was giant double doors leading into another area, the gold lining it made their mouths water.

"Diamond encrusted doorframe! We're going to be rich!" One of the leaders shouted.

Shuka was curious, the number of monsters dropped sharply, so she assumed something was about to happen.

"Apologies, i had to make sure i was well prepared for this moment."

Everyone besides Shuka was startled, a man in a red suit with a tail appeared behind them.

"Another monster! He seems intelligent, unlike those skeletons and slimes!"

The fact that the monster spoke to them coherently made their guards raise.

"Thank you for the compliment. My name is Demiurge, faithful servant to my lord. You all are trespassing." Demiurge pushed his glasses up, showing a slight smile.

"Your lord? Take us to them and we won't kill you!" One of the leaders got excited at the thought of meeting the one who owns all of this.

What benefits could he get by taking that persons secrets?

"Don't worry, my lord would like to meet the leaders soon. Though the rest of you were not invited." Demiurge smiled and raised his right arm.

*Bang*

A gunshot rang out.

*flop*

A body fell to the ground. One of the adamantines, his head blown off.

His killer was soon revealed, a short girl with an emotionless face, red-gold hair, green eyes with an eyepatch covering her right one.

She held a gun in her hands, standing silently behind Demiurge.

"I'd like to introduce you all to CZ2138."

CZ stood there emotionlessly, but on the inside she was upset.

Lord Eden and Lord Aya brought their daughters to meet each of the Pleiades. When CZ saw how cute they were she wanted to hug them all day long.

But then these intruders broke in and ruined that.

They upset her Lords and ruined her cuddle time. Both were unforgivable sins.

She wanted to target the girl in the red dress first because she seemed the most dangerous, but Lord Eden informed her that the girl was apart of them now.

"Activate the defensive magic!" The leader who lost one of his bodyguards immediately shouted to the other one.

*Bang* *Bang* *Bang* *Bang*

Several well placed shots hit the barrier, shattering it and killing the other body guard.

The leader was defenseless.

Before he could run to the other adamantines he was quickly subdued by an invisible force.

"What?! Help me!" One adamantine received orders from his leader to help the man so he did.

Running to the fallen leader he reached out, only to have his throat pierced with a weapon.

"What the hell is happening?!" His answer was revealed as the invisible forces stopped hiding, looking everyone in the eyes as they dragged the first leader away.

*Bang* *Bang* *Bang*

More gunshots, more bodies.

The amount of adamantines dropped sharply, only 6 remaining.

Every time a leader lost his protection, he was subdued and dragged away.

"Shuka! Why are you just standing there?! Help us!" They begged for her help but she just stood there.

She watched as some of the strongest people in this kingdom were wiped out with little effort.

Demiurge looked at her, thinking over something in his mind.

"Miss Shuka, do you plan to fight for them? My Lord is waiting for you in the next room."

Shuka shook her head. She already chose to follow Eden so she wouldn't change her mind now.

The leaders were shocked.

Before they could scold her, they were subdued and dragged to the next room.

The remaining guards were taken alive, only to endure a worse fate.

Demiurge walked up to the double doors and pushed them open, CZ and Shuka followed behind him.

*woosh*

A gust of cold air was felt as the doors opened, greeting them into a grand room with two thrones at the very end.

The stair leading up to the throne was filled with many people.

A vampire girl, another woman in a white dress, and many other females dressed in maid outfits.

There was a big ice creature, a butler, and high level monsters.

Demiurge walked to the thrones and dropped to one knee.

"Lord Eden, Lord Aya, your commands have been fulfilled."

The invisible troops brung in the seven leaders, standing them in front of the throne.

"Thank you, Demiurge, You have done well. You may continue with phase two."

Demiurge smiled at his Lords praise and stood up, leaving to continue the next phase.

Eden sat on his throne, looking over at everyone, his eyes landing on Shuka as he smiled at her.

He then looked at CZ.

"Thank you, CZ. I'm sure Omni would like help with Ava & Yvir, would you mind?"

CZ would smile if she was able to, she bowed and quickly left to find Omni.

"You?! Unhand me this instant and i won't—"

"Kneel."

The leader of the entire alliance recognized Eden and Aya and was upset, but before he could finish his cursing his body shot to one knee, cracking it.

"Aargh!"

"Now, let's begin!"
