Chapter 113: Chapter 101: Heil dem Kaiser (Pt. 2)

 

 

The lone money hungry bounty hunter from the future, Kaiser Mantis, sauntered down the abandoned streets of the once bustling {Moolesh Mountain Town}.

*clack**clack**clack*

Those heavy soles of her military style boots was the only sound through the deathly silence that made the rowdy settlement seem like a ghost town. No one dared step out into the main streets while only a few brave souls dared to peek out from their shutters; upon seeing the sharp shooter the bravery of those few became as solid as a sand castle. Meanwhile the cause gave no major reaction.

Held between her slightly curled up lips was a cigar which was clearly lit as a dense crimson mist danced upwards like a cloud of blood ready to burst. She took in a deep breath to let the smouldering smog fill her lungs - letting it pour out passively from her face making her seem all the more like a death crazed demon. In her left hand was one of her revolvers which would become infamous in about 300 years when she actually is reborn in the east.

Seemingly out of thin air her right hand plucked out bullets which she nonchalantly placed within the open chamber of her weapon. After filling out all 6 holes she flicked her wrist, the weapon snapping shut, before placing the gun back under her armpit. This made some adventurers hiding within the allies' roof tops grow brave yet they instantly jerked back into cover as she proceeded to pull out her weapon.

*clack*
*shink*
*shink*
*shink*
*shink*
*shink*
*clack*

Without so much as looking down at the weapon she expertly flicked open the chamber before placing 6 more bullets inside of them. Although the adventurers and civilians had no idea what the weapon she held was, this didn’t stop them from sensing how terrifying it was. The amount of people that met their end at the barrel of that weapon was truly countless.

Sensining the horror within that weapon nobody was willing to be the first to charge at Kaiser - little did they know that the time when she was reloading should be the safest. Then again if it was so easy to defeat Kaiser she wouldn’t be so feared nor would Munzumira have spent the enormous amount of effort required to pull her from the future. There were two individuals you called if you wanted a Toppler or Archon to suffer and Munzumira didn’t get along with the second on account of their history.

Just like that the mantis-phoenix hybrid flicked her second revolvers chamber shut before placing it back into its holster.

Seeing her make no effort to reach for the swords or her waist of ‘staffs’ (rifles) on her back the adventurers finally regained their bravery. As if they were of one mind dozens exploded out from the allies, jumped down from the rooftops and dashed out the houses. In a matter of seconds the demoness found herself completely surrounded by a battalion of intimidating warriors who made no indication of backing down as they pointed their weapons towards her.

“Stranger we may not know who you are but we know what you have done so don’t make this harder for any of us. Enough blood has been spilt by you today, even if those guards were assholes they didn’t deserve the dogs death you gave them, so put down your foreign weapons and come with us peacefully. We are willing to give you a fair hearing as we aren’t tyrants like the nobles however we have people we need to protect.” <Adventurer>

Despite the reasonableness the adventurer presented, Kaiser didn’t even look towards him, her expression completely the same as before they ambushed her. From her arms slowly rose up making everyone grow tense as the adventurers quickly lowered their stances as if ready to either defend or jump away. She didn’t reach for one of her many weapons however; instead she gripped the cigar between her lips.

Removing the cigar from her lips caused all those around to go even more silent while waiting for her to speak out. Their patience wasn’t rewarded as the person in question was in no rush to answer the request of the adventures. Instead she blew a plume of crimson smoke out while shaking some ash from the cigar - it was only then she decided to speak up.

“It doesn’t matter how many schwächlinge like you gather up; you will never be a threat to me even if you were given adamantite weapons. Though it may be different if you possessed some weapons from my schmiede werkstatt I’m afraid you were born in the wrong era. If I was you I would run away like der kleine scheiß you are.” <Kaiser>

Hearing the soft androgonous voice break the silence caused the mighty men to tremble while lowering their faces with obvious confusion.

This confusion wasn’t surprising as there were words included by the demoness that they didn’t understand which they had never experienced before. Although certain races did indeed have a language of their own that was rare; not to mention it was mostly on monsters. There was a rumour that this was due to a monster kingdom trying to build a tower to reach the heavens only for the {True God} to curse them to speak different languages. Thus preventing them from working together to try to overcome humanity…

Being adventures they had of course heard a story or two about the reasons behind the existence of monsters. Because of this, their eyes tensed yet since they didn’t understand the words she said it meant they didn’t know the meaning behind them. Was she mocking, warning, threatening or something else?

Considering the adventurers didn’t want to fight in the first place this caused them to just silently stand there while staring at the demon.

“Well I’ll be on my way.” <Kaiser>

With no clarification for them she put the cigar into her mouth once more while the flickering flame was reflected within her bubblegum pink lenses. Her hesitation not even existent as she began to walk once more towards the adventurers who still held their weapon - a situation that only befuddled them even more. It took a moment for them to even realise she was just walking away which made them yell after her unsure of what to do.

“H-hey stop!” <Adventurer>

Unsurprisingly she didn’t stop but instead cursed at him though in a language they obviously didn’t know even the name of.

“Dummkopf.” <Kaiser>

“Why are you leaving peacefully…” <Adventurer>

Hearing that made Kaiser actually stop as an amused smile slowly formed on her lips as she turned her head to peer at him from over her shoulder. From the angle she was at he managed to see briefly under the brim of her military cap - upon her forehead there was a bubblegum coloured ‘pearl’ that captivated him with its beauty. Though it felt as if something terrifying and worldly was also staring back at him from that little gem which drove a type of addictive fear he couldn’t pull himself…

“I learned nothing from killing humans like you.” <Kaiser>

Her amused voice brought him back to his reasoning; making him break out into a cold sweat yet he still spoke out.

“Then why’d you kill all those guards!” <Adventurer>

Turning away she began to walk away once more while breathing out another plume of smoke only to take the cigar from her mouth. Rolling it around between her fingers thus letting the ash fall onto the ground below as if marking her path clearly. A gentle chuckle followed her actions as she finally answered.

“I’m a demon and my empress likes it when I pump up the number of dead sinners contributing to her little playground realm. There were only twenty odd but I’m sure they’ve committed enough sins in their life to generate at least 50 Imps - maybe even something of higher quality since I killed them all at the same time. She doesn’t enjoy anything more than a plaything that has proven itself to have worth.” <Kaiser>

Those callous words caused the adventurers to shiver while secretly thinking of all the bad things they have done in their lives. Just when they were thinking that they noticed something poking out from her cloak whi-

*DANG*

Just like that, one of the adventurers standing behind the head fell to the ground with a trail of brain & blood dribbling out from a newly generated hole between his eyes. She didn’t even look back as she once again twirled the gun using the trigger guard on her index before thrusting it under her armpit once more. Those that wished to heroically stop could only silently shiver while considering all they did in their life.

<Dummköpfe are the easiest to deal with… Now she should be here.>

Stepping through some gates she came across an area filled with carriages yet these clearly weren’t to transport people but items. A single glance she could tell that it wasn’t a compound belonging to a single merchant group like in her territory however; there were many small differences between designs. It was something many wouldn’t pick up like a different style of rivet or screw - maybe a different wood used on the body - yet it was obvious to her who was a craftsman with no equal in the era they were within.

Though within the future her little target may change that if she manages to somehow get away from her.

Kaiser ignored all of these other carriages since she had already picked up the demonic essence of her target of the day. Approaching a carriage that was, in her opinion, similar to what she may have her girls use when shuttling material to make her ‘servants’. It wouldn’t surprise her if the primal cowcubus was kidnapped while young since she was indeed quite the impressive specimen that didn’t do her ancestors a disservice.

Therefore she couldn’t help raising an eyebrow at the presence of strong illusions surrounding the carriage since it seemed unlikely for slavers. Though she didn’t panic and soon figured out who was likely the culprit - there was another problem which did make her confused. Why were they already prepared for her to attack?

<I don’t even exist so why set up an ambush… No they likely didn’t know I would be coming but instead that hunter schlampe told them to prepare just in case someone did come. As much as she annoys me it’s impossible to not give credit where credit it due; she certainly deserves her presence as the god of hunters.>

Confident in her thoughts she moved her left hand over the revolver handle resting within her right armpit holster while calmly blowing out another plume of smoke. She wasn’t simply smoking this time however as flowing her demonic qi through the smoke allowed her to guide it into the formation of the magic. Although the level of illusion sure was impressive it wasn’t surprising she was the last of the nine-tailed foxes she was dealing with here.

Soon the sound of glass breaking played out while the beautiful form of Alexis appeared in front of her yet the demon quickly noticed something which made her lips perk up. Although she knew there was another figure  skulking around she didn’t care - it wasn’t an individual she recognised from the aura thus they were unlikely to be important to her. Instead she nodded towards the woman's hands.

“It appears those are some quite severe burns, it must be difficult to hold a weapon with them in such a horrible condition, fuchs.” <Kaiser>

“Fufufu~ I don’t need to hold a weapon against a demon who relies on their guns~.” <Alexis>

It was at that moment when a familiar bunny darted out from behind another carriage with her rapier already drawn and going straight for the merc’s head. This didn’t make Kaiser panic as she calmly moved her revolver from her holster only to hold it in front of her chest. Blowing out another plume of smoke towards the blade caused another shattering sound to reveal Lyada’s sword was actually going for her heart.

The bunny showed surprise as the tip of the blade was expertly caught between her trigger & guard which Kaiser then used to control the sword. Pulling the sword to the side thus making her opponent lose her balance before Kaiser’s boot shot out like a whip - slamming into Lyada’s abdomen making her hurl through the air. Her sword clanking upon the ground while the merc followed up by pointing towards Alexis head which made her quickly guard herself with her voluptuous tails which formed a shield of spirit energy.

“I’ve never relied on anything but myself, fuchs, [Bandits Gambit].” <Kaiser>

Lowering the barrel at Alexis’ abdomen to take advantage of the lower defence that was present there - even if Kaiser didn’t want to upset the 10 tailed fox by shooting his sister dead. Inside the chamber of her weapon began to glow with an ominous demonic light that soon erupted from the barrel of the gun. It cost the remaining five bullets yet the ampt shot left behind easily tore through the fox’s shield to leave a large hole.

“Who…” <Alexis>

Before she could finish she coughed out a gallon of blood and fell to one knee.

Holding her (large) chest, Alexis poured spirit energy around her wound to try to control the rampant demonic energy that was coursing through her like a poison. The last thing she expected was for there to be a demon that would be doing work for a spirit - afterall to say the two races were unfriendly was an understatement. There were instances where vampires sold void beasts to the spirits at the higher levels yet there were also cases where a demon decided to devour a spirit for the strength it granted them.

This hatred was even more true for Munzumira who seemed to be secretly obsessed with the power that Violet held. Unsurprising since the demon god empress had the power of absolute which the eldritch abomination always had dreamed of having; unlike how many forget Violet in turn wasn’t a dull warrior who didn’t know how to use her brain either. It wouldn’t be surprising to the fox if Violet had been lulling Munzumira into a false sense of security in order to let her spring a trap on herself yet she had no idea ‘what’ that trap was…

Yet that very same Munzumira had made use of such a powerful demon, at the very least she was far stronger than a demon lord,  to attack her?

“Are you a traitor to Violet?” <Alexis>

Looking up Alexis narrowed her eyes while studying the demon she didn’t recognise whether it be appearance or other factors. In truth she didn’t even understand what type of demon this woman was which was actually quite the shocking event to her. It wasn’t her ego that gave her the confidence in identifying demons; rather it was due to the fact that in terms of power her younger brother was only beaten by the primordial demon herself.

For demons power is usually directly proportional to your position in the {Demon Realm}, with some small caveats for ‘arts’ other than combat, thus she should have all the information on demons even if she wasn’t one.

“Tratior? Ich bin nur ein Bluthändler!” <Kaiser>

No longer paying attention to the defeated fox - she approached the door into the carriage in which she pushed the door open. While doing this the confident demon couldn’t help but brag a little towards the fox. Clearly confident that she already had victory within her hands with no possibility of it being stolen from her.

“It was foolish to rely on illusions against this Kaiser.” <Kaiser>

The confused voice of Alexis came from behind her just as the door of the carriage opened up.

“Wait, what are you on about, we never casted any illusions since we knew we thought we would be going against Munzumira herself at worst…” <Alexis>

It was just then that Kaiser opened the door only to see the bloodied body of 5 foot demon god of Chaos which made the mouth of the confident merc open. For the first time she truly appeared shocked as well as mortified - causing her cigar to fall from her mouth. A set of ethereal green chains trying up the figure which grabbed all her attention.

“Chaos!” <Kaiser>

“Hi mumsy [sbnᴉƃƃlʎ-lᴉuǝ][Ǝxɔlɐɯɐʇᴉou-ɯɐɹʞ]” <Ɔɥɐos ſ Ⅎɐnsʇ>

Even a demon loved her own children thus Kaiser initially moved to free Chaos yet that hasty judgement was only for a second before she stopped herself. The reason wasn’t because she felt no desire - rather she quickly realised who those green chains belonged to. The only thing that could contain Chaos was the {Magic God of Order} who just so happened to also be-

“Ara ara they never expect the third illusion~!” <Mother>

Kaiser attempted to draw her right pistol while yet she knew by now it was already game over since-

*Clink*

-Mother was the only person with a faser draw.

In an instant a wave of wind exploded out while a powerful blade ripped through everything in front of Mother all the way up to the first mountain peak in Moolesh Mountain range. The sword was so fast that the only sign that Mother even drew her sword was the sound of her tsuba hitting the sheath once again. Even Kaiser was caught unaware as her body collapsed to the floor while her head flew into the distance due to the momentum of her slash.

“Now I think I should go teach that little cosplayer a lesson, hohoho~.” <Mother>

Just like that the {True God} stepped forward.
