Chapter 52: The Demon of Trickery

Selren was very dissatisfied with this siege, very dissatisfied!

I thought that this time I could fight to my heart's content and harvest thousands of delicious souls, but the opponent's defense was so weak that without even decent resistance, the city gate was blasted open, and the battle was over in less than two hours.

And not only did there be no large-scale troops of the elves in the city, but even the civilians in the city had already withdrawn, and after killing the guards, Serren only had a hundred souls in the end, even worse than the previous group of Pegasus knights! How could Selren possibly be happy?

In vain, he stayed for a day and repaired the siege equipment, but he didn't expect it to be of much use at all.

In this battle, Roy only secretly captured a few large souls, and he didn't take any more, after all, the number was too small and easy to find, and after the battle, Roy found Serren and said: "Your Excellency Serren, there should be a large number of troops in the city, but I don't know why, they withdrew!" ”

In fact, there is no need for Roy to say this, of course Serren can see it, so he asked Roy suspiciously, "Why do you think they withdrew?" ”

"Hmm......" Roy pretended to think for a moment before he said, "I think nine times out of ten, it's because of the appearance of a stronger enemy......"

"What do you mean?" Serren was stunned for a moment: "Where is there a stronger enemy besides us?" ”

"Of course there is!" Roy said in an affirmative tone, "Isn't that what Lord Ryska is?" Maybe it's because Lord Ryska is attacking other cities, causing the elves here to lead the team to support, but other than that, I can't think of any other reason for the elves to leave. ”

Selren laughed angrily and said, "How is this possible? Supporting another city will lead to the fall of the city here, those druids of the elves are not so stupid, besides, how can Ryska's side be stronger than my army? ”

"It may not have been possible at first, but not now!" Roy said in a meaningful tone: "Lord Serren, with all due respect, you have been replenished with troops, isn't there a replenishment from His Excellency Riska's side?" ”

Selren was stunned for a moment: "You ...... You mean......"

"That's right, that's what I said, the replenishment of troops should be in charge of His Excellency Ignadis in the rear, right? So, it's not up to him to decide how much to add to which side! Roy's eyes twinkled, "What if he summoned far more troops, but only gave us a small part, and most of the rest went to Ryska?" ”

Serren stopped talking, if that's really the case, then it's certain that Ryska's military strength is stronger than Serren's, you know, what was said at the beginning, Ignadis wanted to summon most of them should be mid-rank and upper-rank demons, even if the number of upper-level demons is small, but the combat power is far more than that of low-level demons, and now only some evil gods have been added to his side, and none of the upper-level demons are missing, and the ghost knows if Ignadis didn't summon it, or did they all go to Ryska's side?

Roy's words planted a thorn in Serren's heart, but he still couldn't help but say, "It shouldn't be, right?" What are the benefits of Ignadis doing this? ”

"With all due respect, Lord Serren!" Roy said, "If I'm not mistaken, Lord Ryska and Lord Ignatis came together when they came to meet you, right?" ”

"Indeed......" Serren nodded.

"So, do you think it's possible that Lord Ryska and Ignadis have reached an agreement on the way here?" Roy continued: "For example, he will replenish more troops to Lord Reska's side, so that Lord Riseska's army will be greatly strengthened, and the efficiency of attacking cities and land will be much higher, and in exchange, Lord Riska's soul will be ......"

When Roy said this, he shut up and didn't continue, but his meaning was already obvious, and he couldn't help Selren not to think nonsense.

Yes, I can't imagine that the two guys have really reached an agreement in secret, I'll just say, Ignadis, that guy would be willing to stay in Castlevania instead of coming out to fight, dare to love the two of them have already discussed it!

As soon as Selren thought of this, he couldn't help but start calculating, Resca's side was able to get more souls because of the great increase in combat power, if he didn't know it, and calculated with the harvest on his side as the standard, Rescar could hide the extra souls and not report them, and in the end, the two secretly shared the spoils, but they didn't get anything on their side...... Bastard! How can they do that!?

Selren was finally "woken up" by Roy's words! couldn't help but curse loudly, cursing Ryska and Ignadis in the most vicious language.

After scolding for a while, he finally came back to his senses and asked Roy: "It's good that you are here, otherwise, I will be kept in the dark, now you can tell me, what should we do?" Do you go back to Ignadis and ask questions? ”

"No, no, don't!" Roy shook his head and said: "Have you thought about it, Lord Serren, if you question the unfair distribution of troops by Lord Ignadis, then Your Excellency Ignadis just has an excuse, what if he lets you stay and summon troops, and he himself leads the expedition?" At that time, the two of them will be able to hide their earnings unscrupulously......"

Selren suddenly realized, indeed, this matter could not be clarified with Ignadis.

"Your Excellency, you have also seen that now because Your Excellency's troops are too strong, even the elves feel that he is a threat, and would rather abandon the city than support the clansmen who are in the attack route of Your Excellency Riseska!" Roy said: "In other words, this is tantamount to Your Excellency Riska snatching away the soul gains that originally belonged to us, if we continue to let it go like this, our gains will be less and less!" ”

Serren nodded, "I see, for now, we can only rush to the front of Ryska!" ”

The overall strength of the elves is just like that, almost fixed, Ryskar's side kills a little more, and Serren's side can only kill a little less, in this case, all Serren can think of is to grab people's heads.

He is now completely distorted by Roy, in fact, the withdrawal of the elven troops has nothing to do with Ryska's side at all, Serren actually only needs to send a messenger to Ryska to see the situation of his troops, but now that Serren is dizzy, he didn't think of this, he is now full of thoughts about how to grab people's heads with Ryska.

So then, Serren's troops began a new round of rapid marches, following the established direction, deep into the territory of the Kingdom of Erathia, and in this way, he gradually lost touch with Ryska's troops!

Roy watched all this silently, it can be said that this was all promoted by him secretly, the elves sensed the true goal of the demon because of the war book, and began to shrink the defense line, while Serren began to lead the troops into the deep army alone because of jealousy, anger and greed, and when the time came, he was likely to crash headlong into the ambush of the elves who had gathered superior forces! Without the support of Ryska and Ignadis, his prospects are definitely not good.

All of this was just a letter and a few words from Roy, although these small actions were very simple, but they were cut at the key point, and the consequences were quite serious...... Since becoming a demon, Roy himself has found himself adept at using these tricks and schemes, and he doesn't know if it's the demon's talent that is at work......

Of course, since Roy is also in Serren's forces, when Serren is in danger, Roy will also be in danger.

So, the next step that Roy has to think about is how to get out, the battlefield is very dangerous, saving his life is the first premise, and when he saves his life, he will have a chance to get out of Serren's control......
