Chapitre 52: The kind, the intelligent, and the powerful loli

The humans began their little conquest a few days ago. They killed a lot of daemons and set up a couple of camps here and there.

They were in a hurry, their forces scattered but they seemed to have already got a layout of the island making it easier from someone.

'Was it the bozos from that Dungeon? So they really were sent here for a scouting mission... but despite their deaths they were still sent here, how curious. It would appear that I have to explore the Central Region of the Island after I'm done.' Lilith could almost smell the treasure she could horde for herself after this war.

'For now, let's focus on winning this thing. They're not the only one who has information.'

The Forest of Beast's current status was fairly simple.

Sections 4 and 5 are free from any human activities; Sections 2, 6, 7, and 8 were destroyed sending Lilith Werewolves from Section 6; Brick Bears from Section 8: Harpies from Section 2; and Dracas from Section 7.

Lilith does not discriminate over the tier of the daemons and their species as long as the Goddess keel over and give a reward for saving them.

There were a total of 1186 daemons of two varying tiers under her.

But their tiers are easily understandable and their numbers were already listed by Alpha.

Rare-Tier: 625

Epic-Tier: 561

As to why they went to her, well, it was because Lilith sent out several daemons to intercept them and bring her to them.

There was also the fact that rumors already spread throughout the island saying the Ogres and Pixies have defeated a human camp. This fact made Lilith's forces so much more attractive to join.

Their exact numbers also speak for themselves as to who got hit the most by the humans

Werewolves: 27: Brick Bears: 12: Harpies: 73: Dracas 25: Pixies 725: Ogres 324.

There are so little Brick Bears because their stubborn attitudes led to many of them staying until they most of them died. The Dracases who lived in Section 7 escaped through the river connection of Section 7 and 5 to avoid attacks.

Werewolves were outclassed and was killed by the surge of hunters, and the Harpies escaped through the skies and with the hunters having so little means to stop them from escaping, they were left alone.

Every daemon that sought asylum were all Epic-tiers granting Lilith a much needed up in her forces.

The…daemons from the destroyed Sections have their own unique uses as well so she couldn't complain.

Brick Bears have a strong defense and a lot of HP so if she can get the armor and some maces, she'll be able to create a meat grinding force. The Harpies could fly and despite their lack of hands, their feet could still carry two bombs, if Lilith could buy some Magic Bombs from the Shop, she'll have a bombardment troop.

The Dracas were like humans, except they have crocodile heads and reptilian hands and webbed feet. Tthey stood on two legs and scales covered their bodies. Their strength was comparable to that of an Ogre and their defense was near the level of a Brick Bear. They were an all-rounder.

And as for the Werewolves...Lilith will have them join the Shadow Troop led by Eve.

'They are beings of the night; another group of daemons is needed in the Shadow Troops anyway. I'll just have Dhampy train them, but only half of them are old enough and are capable of combat. Only 8 to 12 of them will be able to join...so this might just turn out well.

'Hehehe, Dhampy should provide a very good training regime for these guys. If they complain, she will take care of them nicely…hehehehehe.'

Though hints of bias could be seen behind her decision, she was still considering everything after a long line of thought and the decision just turned out like this without her even noticing it. With that said, Lilith was very satisfied that the Werewolves would become useful.

Lilith sat inside a room that was dimly lit by a small flame coming from a candlelight she salvaged from the mansion where she and her two followers previously stayed in.

A detailed map of the Forest of Beast was laid down in front of her. She had Sections 2, 6, 7, and 8 crossed out meaning it had already been conquered and occupied by humans.

Sections 1 and 3 were both in the red meaning it was currently fighting with the humans. Section 1 was the biggest territory where the Dwarves were located and Section 3 was where the feline daemons known as Persia were based.

Section 4 and 8 were right beside one another and with the retreat of Brick Bears, Section 4 was next on the chopping blocks of the humans.

Section 2 where the Harpies lived was actually near Section 7 meaning, before Section 4 and 5, they passed Section 1 and 3.

They also sought assylum to these two sections, though they were driven away.

The Harpies were not welcome by the Persian and the Dwarves because they did not have anything to spare for them. Also, Sections 1, 2, and 3 were always at war as they tried to one-up each other so it was understandable that they held some grudge against one another.

The defeated and hungered Harpies were all saved by the Priestess with open arms.

The Harpies were prideful, but they have been saved by Lilith and because of their feeling of gratitude for Lilith, every daemon who were saved by the little Priestess felt compelled to fight for her.

The Harpies even lowered their heads to Lilith and said they will follow her if she let them achieve vengeance for their people who were slain by the invading humans.

'I can't be defeated in this war, or else my life will be on the chopping block. I can't let the humans take over, and the other daemons want revenge, achieve even one and I get it all. Fail one and I lose it all. This is pretty intense of a situation.' against all odds, Lilith showed a smile.

This was a high stakes situation, and Lilith is pretty pumped about this. She already died, and she does not plan on croaking when a fight was winnable. And as she silently chortled, a figure appeared from her shadows.

"The sun is going down, Priestess."

It was Eve who appeared.

Stretching her back, Lilith looked at Eve who was on her knees. She smiled at her actions but had her get up.

"Go and do it, I want the complete numbers of our enemies, but make sure not to wander around Sections 1 and 3."

"Yes, Priestess."

Eve was just about to disappear into the darkness, but then, Lilith remembered something important.

"Before you go, have you guys found what I asked of you?"

"Not yet, Priestess, but the Brick Bears mentioned about their territory having a lot of large Boulders."

"Good, that's good. We're going to take care of Section 8 and once we get that, our plan should begin."

Lilith smirked as she shook her head.

Eve was in awe of Lilith for her confidence in this dire situation. Lilith was the embodiment of kindness and power, and her intelligence was the greatest of all daemons.

Her thoughts were so deep none could fathom her plans, and as of this moment, Eve had new things to spread to the village.

And as such, when night descended, and Lilith's smile grew wider, the time for the hunt drew near.
