NOVEL NEXT The beginning of the civil war
Pov General,
In a low-lying place in the territory of Lucifer, seven devils with different hair colors were discussing.
Red Hair: "We have our target; it’s Dia Gremory, also commonly known as the Crimson Princess. She will be one of the commanders of the enemy."
White Hair: "Do we have any information on her?"
Red Hair: "It's only known that she has a talent for music and is often called to perform at great celebrations."
Yellow Hair: "Music is useless. What interests us is her strength."
Black Hair: "You’re wrong, Jaune. Music can have unsuspected powers."
Jaune: "Like what? I warn you, the only thing music can do is relax the atmosphere. Besides, have you seen this image? Who would want to go after someone like her?"
Red Hair: "Let’s not fight. After all, these are orders from the Satans, and we cannot refuse them."
Black Hair: "I did some research on her, and apparently, she was engaged to Ruval Phenex. But we don’t know how this engagement was canceled, and some say that when he crosses paths with Dia, he almost stops his heart."
White Hair: "It’s strange because, after all, the Phenex are immortal, so they shouldn’t be afraid of her."
Black Hair: "Don’t interrupt me, Blanc. After that, Dia was engaged to Serafall Sitri, who will also be in command of the army. Rouge, can we ask to take care of her too?"
Rouge: "You’ll have to convince them."
Jaune: "I’m not interested in dealing with girls. You can attack them if you want."
Blue Hair: "Let Vert and me handle this operation. After all, an assassin is the best solution."
In the human world, more precisely in the castle of Scathach, a fight between Dia and the mistress of the place occurred.
The fight was a duel, but watching it, it seemed more like 10 vs 1. Crimson swords orbited around Dia, attacking Scathach as if they had a will of their own.
Scathach had no time to rest due to the relentless attacks coming from all sides, but thanks to her experience, and also because the swords were slightly less responsive than Dia herself, she managed to defend herself well.
Dia: "Prepare to lose for the first time."
Dia rushed towards Scathach, intending to finish the fight with this attack.
Scathach: "I don’t think so."
She thrust her spear into Dia’s left shoulder, and in response, Dia armed her right arm to try to decapitate Scathach with the sword she held in her hand.
Scathach: "Nice try, but too bad."
She gripped the spear handle a little tighter, and a sacred force capable of killing high-ranking devils surged into Dia’s body.
Dia: "Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah! I give up."
After Dia said that, Scathach withdrew the spear from her body, and Dia could finally catch her breath.
Scathach: "It was a good technique, but first, you got hit, which is shameful, and second, you should use it against someone who doesn’t know about your 'immortality.'"
Dia: "Understood, Scathach-sensei."
Rimuru appeared in the arena and headed towards Dia.
Rimuru: "I’m sorry to interrupt this moment, Dia-sama, but..."
Dia immediately became alert and prepared to leave.
Dia: "What’s the emergency?"
Rimuru: "The young descendant of Beelzebub has given orders to massacre all members of the resistance faction in the city of Lucifaad, regardless of civilian casualties. War has been openly declared."
Dia's face began to twist with anger.
Dia: "Let’s leave immediately for Lucifaad."
A circle appeared beneath their feet, and they teleported to the underworld.
As soon as Dia saw the macabre scene before her, the first thing that came to her mind was:
Dia: 'Seeing this, I know how to create my greatest musical masterpiece. But let’s wait for the war to end before playing it.'
