章 159: Prelude to the Final Battle
Several days later, there was a notice sent from the Central Military Command that I needed to be presented there within the upcoming three days, as I would be taking over military command of the Main Battlefield.
The final Battle of the Great War was coming closer, and soon it would erupt.
Heaven was preparing for the final push as well as Grigori.
It was an unspoken truth that this was just a charade to appease warmongers who wanted to wage war, but all three factions suffered too high losses, especially on lives.
Grigori had the highest number of casualties. It was logical as, to begin with, their numbers at the start of the war were the smallest. While devils were better in terms of casualties, thanks to Arcanotech, but we have enormous damages in property and destroyed cities and infrastructure.
Some territories of more incompetent nobles were totally destroyed and would need years to rebuild everything that was lost. 12 of Pillar Houses had their territories completely destroyed due to war, and another 25 suffered heavy damages.
Heaven also didn't fare too much better compared to other factions; they lost the majority of their population and almost all of their Artificial Angels that were created by Yahweh for the Great War. It may seem that Grigori and Devils were hit hardest by the Great War, but the truth was Heaven suffered most.
While Grigori had the highest death toll and Devils had the highest property damages, Heaven lost Yahweh, many of their top fighters, and powerhouses, and after he dies, there will be no more Pure Angles to be born. While numbers of Grigori would recover over time, as Pure Angels would continue to fall, but Heaven had a bleak future.
It was clear that if the war continued, Devils would win, as we were in the best state, but the cost would be devastated infrastructure and economy, with a death toll of entire species being around 40% of all devils would die.
When the decision was on me, I decided against and went with the plan devised by me as the highest-ranked devil, Michael and Azazel. Even if we won, the losses would be too much, and our population would take a great hit, meaning that in the future, people would be using Evil Pieces, which is something I want to prevent at all costs.
The main reason was that in the Astral Boundary existence of Evil Pieces would make us a grand target by strong factions for an attack. Things like that were priceless treasures even in the Astral Boundary, and from the information of Longinus Dreizhen Orden, then not many Universes had something similar; that was why I planned to make them the utmost secret of our species and is used only in the direst needs.
"Hela, mobilize all Legions. It is time to start. Send a message to Azrael to bring his Death Guard Legion to the Main Battlefield at the end of the battle. We are starting. You will lead the charge, try to kill Kokabiel, or at least cripple him."
I said as Hela nodded and went to execute my order.
"Fia, contact your father and inform him of my plan. Also, be ready for the war; you are going to participate in one project of mine. After the battle starts, you will go with the Grandmaster of Temple, and he will give you a list of names. You are one of the strongest people under me, and several of those targets may prove difficult to deal with."
I said lightly, as I wanted Grayfia to help Execution Temple to dispose of some people.
She looked a bit sad knowing that her younger brother became one of my targets to be disposed of, not that she wasn't aware of his terrible mental state, which was so compatible with Rizevims. Two madmen that were made for each other, like sent from heaven.
"I know what are you thinking about Grayfia, but there is nothing that could be done. Though I promise that If possible, I will imprison Euclid, instead of killing him, if your father allows it."
In truth, it was my father-in-law's idea to kill his own son. He was very well aware of how the House of Lucifuge would end with Euclid being the head of the house and about his blind loyalty to the Rizevim and terrible mental state. Gerstahl would do everything in order to prevent the decline of his house, even if it means killing his son, who would bring only chaos and destruction to the House of Lucifuge.
"Vena, sent letter to Zekram. It is time to start."
I said to Venelana, who nodded her head in agreement.
After everyone departed to their own things, I was left in my study alone, thinking about various things.
"While the final battle is nothing more than a farce, it would be a good time to dispose of problematic elements in our race that would be participating in it."
I muttered to myself.
Currently, nobody aside from the highest-ranking members of three factions knew that the final battle was just a play, and after this battle, all three factions would enter a ceasefire.
"And then the time of Baator would come."
I said.
Baator, the place where supernatural species could coexist, be it Dragons, Devils, Fallen Angels, Oni, or other species.
Hela would be showing herself during the battle. I gave her an order to kill Kokabiel, though I doubt that it would be possible to kill that cockroach. For me, it would be enough if she injured him severely, so he won't be causing trouble for the next decades.
Kokabiel was a warmonger and he would soon start endangering everything that I have decided with Azazel, but unfortunately, there were a large number of Fallen Angels inside the Grigori that shared his ideals.
Till the merging of Baator and Grigori, Azazel needed to clean up his garden and that could take centuries.
