บท 275: The Emperor's Blades
In their panic, magicians of Nilrem and Wizards of Oz started barraging Sardaukar with their magic spell, only for their shields, and Runic Armors shrugged them off like nothing.
Soon enough, it was too late for the Wizards of OZ, Magicians of Nilrem, and others of the Utsuemi Agency, as the Sardaukar started engaging them in close combat. Every time Sardaukar slashed their sword, one life was taken, as their enemies were slaughtered like cattle waiting to be butchered one by one.
"Those are?"
Asked Yasaka, with a shaky voice, she watched white-armored knights slaughtering their enemies like nothing while spells of their enemies bounced on against them, not leaving even a single injury.
"Those are the Sardaukar Forces, one of the three elite forces of the Chthonian Empire, together with the Khaos Brigade and Burning Legion. They are led by their commander, Arthur Pendragon, who is currently engaging the leader of the Hero Faction Cao Cao in single combat."
Explained Rias as she watched Arthur Pendragon, who had already reached Legendary-Class wielding reforged Holy Sword Excalibur pushing Cao Cao back with each sword strike. As Dragonoids, which was more like a humanoid dragon, Pendragons enjoyed great physical strength and high aptitude for magic; additionally, they were able to cast innate dragon magic.
Meanwhile, Sardauakar Commander was battling Cao Cao; Sardaukars slaughtered magicians and wizards alike. Their spells were utterly ineffective on the Sardaukar. They just cut down everything in their path, leaving countless corpses behind them.
Only members of the Hero Faction were able to stand against them and even kill several Sardaukar soldiers before being overwhelmed by the number and strategy employed by the Sardaukar against them.
Sardaukar was ordered to capture them alive so the Empire could extract their Sacred Gear in case they refused to submit.
Executioners of the Execution Temple already captured several members of the Hero Faction. Hero Faction had a plan to send several of its members through another path and encircle Yasaka.
The person they sent was the possessor of the Longinus Sacred Gear Annihilation Maker, Leonardo, and several other members who were there mainly for his protection. Unfortunately for them, they were not a match for an ambush of the Executioners, who quickly defeated them and captured them.
Rias stood there with Yasaka as they observed how the Sardaukar were subduing one member of the Hero Faction after another, and after Heracles fell to several Sardaukar that decapitated his limbs, their entire little invasion has been brought to an end, as everyone knew that they had been defeated.
Arthur has knocked out Cao Cao, who, with his Balance Breaker, managed to give even Arthur some wounds, as Cao Cao was very strong in that form, reaching the combat prowess of the weaker Satan-Class.
Still, in the end, it was not enough.
After that, other members of the Hero Faction that stood up were only Jeanne and Georg, who surrendered after the others were defeated, and Siegfried was killed by Arthur when he interrupted a fight between him and Cao Cao.
Georg was a pragmatist who joined Cao Cao only because he promised him Arcane Knowledge after all supernatural factions were destroyed. Meanwhile, Jeanne was a former Exorcist of the Church who went rogue due to practices of the organization itself.
"It is done... that took longer than I predicted."
Muttered Rias as she observed Sardaukars cleaning the battlefield and killing injured members of Nilrem, Wizards of Oz, and Usuemi Agency.

MC POV
"Come on, Hela, what is taking you so long."
I said to my wife as we were going to visit Yasaka. The second I felt the resonance from the jade I had given to Rias, Hela instantly wanted to take a look at her granddaughter, and at the same time, she wanted to beat her son.
Unfortunately for her, and fortunately for Sigmar, he was somewhere in the Draconic Deus in some galaxy, subduing another space-faring civilization that was a bit more developed as they have developed in a psionic way. Their civilization had even people comparable to Ultimate-Class, and their strongest psionic was around peak Satan-Class.
So Sigmar was sent to deal with them; their civilization controlled an entire galaxy that was rich in some crucial ores and precious materials that were very important for Arcanotech development and advanced weaponry.
Empire was waging wars for resources in the Draconic Deus galaxies to obtain as many resources as possible, to improve our capabilities.
I have arrived with Hela at Yasaka's place, and for some time, we have observed Sardaukar slaughtering magicians and wizards and other pests that were gathered here.
"It seems we have obtained a few Sacred Gears with this."
I muttered as I observed knocked-out members of the Hero Faction.
"What will you do with them, dear?"
Asked me, Hela.
"As always, they would be broken down and researched. They are defective in the end, though the True Longinus is unique, so I will task Azazel and Ajuka together with Grandmasters of Ironforge to reforge it and give it to Vali. He lacks a weapon that could grow alongside him, and he has talent with a spear."
I have answered and said my plans for the Sacred Gears.
In my eyes, they were nothing more than a bunch of defective products that made their users heavily dependent on them. But researching them greatly benefited the Empire, as we have developed Runic Armors and other weapons based on them.
For example, PSG, the Personal Shield Generators, were developed mainly from data obtained from researching the Sacred Gears.
