Dominic saw the big walls over 200 meters. It was the magical wall built with the blessing of priests over every brick, protecting it against the invasion of demons. The bricks was made using cement hardened with blood and crushed bones of the demons, allowing it to have high magical and physical resistance.
He sighed as this was useless when it comes to aerial attack as mages with long ranged attacks were very low. He thought and said to Lord Evan, walking alongside him, "I do have certain magical items that can shoot projectiles."
"You are not talking about the magical guns, right?"
"yes and no. The guns that I have created can store energy over years and the most basic attack is of 5 star level. This will be enough to take down the griffins and phoenixes when they attack. Other mounts such as the dark crows and wind eagles can also be shot down if you have a good sniper on your side."
"True. Anything higher than them cannot be shot down."
"It is not that ti cannot be shot down. I have magical guns with 6 star and 7 star attack strength. But if a dragon baby attacks you, do you dare to kill it. I do. But do you ?"
"I am not courageous like you. If I may, why did you leave your position as the future duke. It is better to inherit than built a new kingdom."
"They are not worthy for me to protect them. They are not worthy to let me lead them and let them prosper. They are not worthy to let me fight for them."
"True. You did make the dukedom economically strong by about ten times. Your special irrigation method increased food production by 50% and your business management ideas and laws and regulations was really good, maintaining proper economic circulation. No one needs to talk about your strength and commanding power. But I heard that you had run away due to failing in love. "
"That bitch slept with an elf. The only reason why I had pursued her was because she had a strong bloodline, her father paid me enough and I did not want to let the kingdom fall into the hands of another race. As for why I left the kingdom, I do not want to be with such foolish queen."
Evan nodded and asked, "Why not rebel?"
"Do I need to rebel. What would I gain after rebelling? I will have to fight the war, pacify the nobles fighting against me, create a new orthodoxy wit me as the king and my lineage as the royal family, and then establish new laws and customs. Even after all this, I only get the right to command a few armies. The biggest problem of being a leader is that you cannot do everything you want to do as the system of governance is not absolute for a monarch. Can your emperor wage war without listening to the imperial family, ministers and officials, and noble lords under him. But if I am alone, I can slaughter a nation when I want to without having to listen to anyone else."
/Evan smiled slightly. It was to be expected from Dominic the slayer. He nodded and said, "if you have plans to fight, you can join the battlefield in the demon realm. There are many treasures that can be gained while fighting them."
Dominic nodded and said, "I might go there but not now."
He planned to enslave a few demons after summoning them and letting them go to the demon realm and keep enslaving further. As for elves, he had already enslaved many smaller life he could sense and let them corrupt further. He hopes them to enslave the elf and then enslave the world. He would not need to manage all things as the slaves will take care of it themselves, so he would have a lot of time to do what he wanted.
He planned to live as a lone lord for some time by building a wizard tower, claiming some land as his own, king some essence fruits and selling it, making artifacts and selling it, using the money to gain more. It was just like a game. He wants to fight but he needs reason to fight. Being strong and being provoked is a good reason.
He smiled as he moved towards the selected wall.
