Chapter 195 195 – The Great Feats
“I didn’t know mortals had this great potential,” Levi commented. “Perhaps, we should study them in more depth.”
I looked at Olga, who was still walking towards Tamaki. “Can my servants also be as good as them, my lord?”
“I guess so. After all, their souls were former souls from the mortal. Energy is closely related to the soul. However, remember that Scarlet also has great potential if we talk about the same thing.”
“I see.” I sighed. I have to admit that these substitute servants are indeed more powerful than my usual servants.

Olga continued walking toward Tamaki without showing any fear at all. She stopped when she got so close to the red Demon, only inches away from him.
It made Tamaki bewildered. “Hey, how arrogant of you, mortal! You….”
Tamaki’s speech was cut off by Olga, who suddenly ducked down. Her two swords glowed, and she slashed at both Tamaki’s legs. However, the Demon can jump, and Olga’s weapons only graze his limbs, creating white smoke.
Olga isn’t done yet. She stepped forward and attacked Tamaki with movements that the human eye could barely follow, so fast and on target. Tamaki could only dodge, and occasionally his body was hit by the red-haired woman’s attack.
“I’m not going to kill you right away, mortal!” Tamaki is frustrated because he doesn’t get a chance to counterattack. The growth of his body also stopped. “I will give you to my men! They will rape you over and over again until you ask to be killed!”
Seeing that battle scene, Gina felt as if her body was electrified. “In westerns, there is a legend that only the underground knows. It’s about an assassin who kills her targets more openly, and she never fails to kill. She does those things without hiding to send messages to others too. She is rumored to have an incredible speed as a mortal.”
Tamayo gulped, hearing the story.
“The stories circulating about her feel so exaggerated.” Gina continued with trembling lips. “I don’t believe it myself… Until I saw this. Yes, we did gain temporary divinity, but….”
Olga didn’t stop attacking, and Tamaki was increasingly overwhelmed by the woman. The wounds on his body increased, and he still didn’t get a chance to attack. When the Demon managed to accelerate its movement, Olga also accelerated her attack.
“You bitch!!!”
The red-haired woman jumped, then crossed her two swords at the enemy’s neck. She made a scissor-like motion, and the Demon’s head was cut off instantly. The monster’s body collapsed with its neck splattering fresh blood. Meanwhile, his head was rolling on the dirt road.
“This is not over!” Even though he had lost his body, Tamaki could still scream. “Akaimajo-sama will resurrect me again!”
Tamaki was still babbling, and Olga approached her with a stern look. She raised her two still glowing white swords, then stabbed them into Tamaki’s head in quick succession.
The woman’s breath was steady, and she didn’t seem tired.
Tamaki couldn’t speak anymore because the stabs cut into his head. In just a short time, that body part is now just pieces of bone, flesh, brain, and other parts.
Gina could only stare with her mouth open at the incident that had entered the realm of absurdity. Tamayo and her bodyguards also did the same. Yes, Tamaki was already seriously injured when fighting Olga. However, the Demon should have gotten more potent because of its enlarged body.
Olga turned her gaze to the Demon’s body, which now looked like a thin, wrinkled old man’s body, completely different from before. She then walked over to Gina and the others with a sharp look.
Gina flinched because of that. She actually felt that Olga was more intimidating than the Demon itself.
The red-haired woman stopped a few feet from Gina and the others. The mage immediately sensed that something was wrong.
Gina’s hands were blistered and emitting smoke. She suddenly knelt down, using her sword for support. And then, fresh blood gushed from her mouth. Gina and Tamayo immediately crouched down to the red-haired woman.
“Sorry, sir.” Olga forced a faint smile on her lips. “I can’t fight to the end.”
“You have been a great help, Olga.” Raymund’s voice came from the communication device in Olga’s small bag. “You’ve killed countless demons and even finished off their leader. Now, rest.”
The waffle seller’s smile widened. Her vision was getting blurry, and her consciousness began to disappear. The energy in her body was completely depleted. She felt that she did not have the power to just breathe.
In the end, the woman fell.

With a body full of blood splatter marks, Lynn slashed the umpteenth Demon. Meanwhile, Alain continued to shoot arrows of light to kill several demons at once.
On the other hand, the soldiers had to go to great lengths to kill just one Demon. They had to catch the Demon with ropes, traps, or other methods. After that, they will attach a special seal to the Demon. The seal will explode a few seconds later and kill the monster.
The corpses of the demons were already lying on the streets. The soldiers and substitute servants were left to fight against their remnants, who had not shown any fear.
A soldier ran up to Kurosaki, who had also recently helped kill one of the demons.
“Tamaki has been finished, sir!” The soldier said breathlessly.
“I see.” Kurosaki looked at the corpses lying on the road. Most were demons, but some of them were his soldiers or belonged to the other commander. Then, he looked at the injured soldiers being carried away by their comrades. One of the worst injured was the other commander. This forced Kurosaki to become the leader of all the existing soldiers.
“Looks like we’ve finished it all, sir.” Alain walked up to the commander along with Lynn.
However, the commander did not look pleased with the victory. “There were indeed many casualties on our side, but I feel this is still too easy. We haven’t been here long, and victory is in our hands.”
“Hey, you think the same as me, sir.” Alain chuckled. “I also often experience this kind of thing in adventures. If things go too smoothly, usually we will face something more troublesome.”
“Sorry, but shouldn’t we storm the castle right away?” Lynn cleaned her naked body with a long cloth given by a soldier. “We can’t delay any longer…”
A huge roar cut off the woman’s words. Everyone’s gaze immediately turned towards the castle. One gigantic monster emerged from the ground and let out a massive outcry, making everyone cover their ears.
“Damn! My guess was right!” Kurosaki cursed. “These demons are not their main strength!”
Lynn felt the joints in her body give up. It was at that moment that she felt a tremendous sense of despair. She didn’t feel this hopeless while trying to take her town. At least, at that time, she still had hope of being able to seize the place. She still had many comrades in arms.
However, who would be able to stand against that dark gray Demon over 200 feet tall?
A flash of lightning that Raymund sent hit the giant’s body. However, it only screamed in pain. The lightning had almost no effect on its body, only causing a black wound on its back.
“Looks like I’ll have to use that, sir Raymund.” Alain took a deep breath, lined up on Lynn, and looked at the monster.
“Are you sure, Alain?” The god of hope responded.
Alain nodded. “Looks like we don’t have a chance to choose.”
The archer tossed his quiver and bow, then jumped onto one of the roofs. He then glanced at the soldiers and Lynn, smiling broadly. “Don’t worry, I can beat that ugly giant.”
After saying that, Alain ran away. Lynn briefly froze, but she finally caught up with the man. There was no particular reason. She just felt compelled to do so.
“Hey, why are you following me, naked woman?” Alain chuckled. “I can do this myself.”
Lynn didn’t answer.
The archer sighed. “At the very least, keep your distance from me.”
He then stopped on one of the roofs of the house then signaled Lynn to stay away. Lynn seemed hesitant at first but eventually went and watched the archer from a distance.
“Sir, I have a request,” Alain said while looking at the giant monster walking with a massive thud, shaking the ground. “Can you tell my future wife something? For later, of course.”
“Tell her about what?” Raymund asked back.
“That her future husband is the greatest archer on earth.” Alain smiled again, taking an aiming pose, but without using a bow and arrow.
“You said like you wouldn’t make it, Alain.”
A few seconds later, light emerged from his hand, forming a giant bow and arrow. The bow was so big that its lower end penetrated the roof of the house he was stepping on.
“I ask you one more time, are you sure?” Raymund’s voice trembled.
A small chuckle escaped the archer’s mouth. “Shut up, god. Look at me doing this fucking amazing thing.”
