"And how may you achieve such a feat?"
Asked Venelana curiously as she was playing with a ball of demonic energy in her hands.
"Simple. When the Great War starts, Angels and Fallen would be hit hardest, as they have territory on the Earth while we don't. The entire Church would be vulnerable and won't have protection from Angels, and Big G. Their exorcists would be forced to carry out the dangerous missions without backup from Heaven, and then there is where my plan starts. Their crusade of preaching religion would be stopped due to war. I will leak internal information about their exact strength, numbers, and other things to Asgard, Takagamara, and Vampires."
I said with a bloodthirsty grin.
"And all of their factions would do the job for you. Killing the target with a borrowed knife, while you also have a good reputation and become an ally. The presence of Angels and Fallen would be severely weakened as the blood of countless exorcists, priests, Angels, and Fallen would flow in rivers, and they would lose approximately 50% of their territory in Europe and their entire territory in Asia. With such influence cut, we devils could use this as an opportunity to launch ambushes through Earth."
Venelana finished the sentence for me.
"Perfectly. I plan to become the strongest being in all of existence; it will be only then that I can live in peace. You see, the future is uncertain, but only one thing can decide the future. Strength. Without strength, you are nothing; you can do nothing and achieve nothing."
I said as I looked at Venelana, who was listening to me.
"You think the same, aren't you? That is why you are training so seriously while other young ladies enjoy tea and lazily around."
"You are right, but I also train to prove everybody wrong. You see, my half-brother is going to be the next Lord Bael, as if he really would have some real power, but that is not important. I can't inherit the position because my mother is just my father's second wife. While I am born to a second wife, I don't have privileges, but I have chosen to prove one thing. That I am far superior to my idiotic brother. And truth to be told, I have succeeded beautifully, as currently, my brother can't display even a third of my power, his technique is terrible, and his mastery over magic and clan trait is pathetic."
It was apparent that Venelana despised her half-brother, and that for a good reason. In fact, she was the daughter of the second daughter of his father and not the main wife; the Lordship would befall onto her half-brother, who was incapable, weak, and without talent.
"That is understandable, Lady Venelana. Don't worry; during the war, you can prove your might and leave your name in murals of history."
I said with a slight smile.
"The same could be said about you, Lord Gremory. Don't you want to accomplish military merit to expand your influence?"
Asked me, Venelana.
"Yeh. The best thing would be increasing my noble title, meaning more territory and more power. Of course, If I would have enough merit for that, but hopefully, I would be able to reach at least an intermediate stage of the Ultimate-Class when the war starts; if not, we would be just cannon fodder."

I said to which Venelana nodded. Getting military merit as a High-Class was impossible because beings of High-Class strength would just act as glorified cannon fodder. Main combatants would be Ultimate-Class beings along with Satan/Seraph/Cadre-Class beings.
"That is a good idea... I heard that later someone started buying practically everything that has something to do with creating military supplies, weapons, or armors. Do you know something about that, My Lord?"
Asked Venelana with a cheeky smile as she looked at me suspiciously.
"Maybe... or maybe not... who knows."
I gave out a mysterious smile.
"The War... truth to be told, I fear what it would be."
Thought Venelana out of loud. In truth, she had more reasons to fear the upcoming war than me, especially when it came to family members. She feared for her mother, father, and even Grandpa, though the last one was useless, as Zekram was on the level of Super-Devils, while maybe just an early stage, but alas, he was powerful.
On the contrary, I had no relatives in this world, so I didn't have these motions.
"Beal Territory is guarded strictly and it is in the middle of Devil Race territory, so there is a small chance the war would be drawn there. If I can predict, I think most battles would be fought either at the territories belonging to Houses which have them at the outskirts of the Devil Species territory, near the demilitarized zone with Fallen, or we would either fight in Dimensional Gap or Earth."
Shortly after, Venelana nodded, hearing my words. Yes, Houses that have territory near the buffer zone with Fallen would be hit hardest; for example, fortunately, I have been preparing for that. Then the second place where most fighters would take place would be Earth. And lastly, battles between top combatants would take place in Dimensional Gap.
The existence of Super-Devil Class or High God could, with their strong attack, destroy smaller orbital objects like a moon. Even a Satan-Class entity could, with a strong attack, destroy a continent. Of course, if we are talking about existences that reached the Class in energy reserves. Their energies are extremely dense, pure, and potent.
A single spell from Super-Devil, High God, or someone similar would be enough to destroy the entire city. So it is understandable that such fights would take place in Dimensional Gap cause if not, collateral damage would be astronomical.
When talking about strength, I always wondered how exactly strong the Big G was... He sealed Trihexa, which was being at the Apocalypse-Class similar to the Great Red or Ophis, but from what I have heard, he was never known for his combat abilities but rather for crafting and magic.
Interesting... still. If even Big G didn't want to mess with Hindu Pantheon, Shiva must be stronger than what I remember from the canon novel. Meaning... I can't depend fully on my knowledge of the canon.
