Chapter 1161 Immediate Repercussions Of The War

Nobody but other Sages could intervene in a fight meant for Sages.

The participants and the infiltrators both pulled back and allowed the two Sages to duke it out against each other. This was not a fight they could participate in. Instead, they chose to fight opponents of their own caliber.

Hansen and Gregory disappeared from their places and appeared to be fighting in the sky. They both reached a high altitude before letting their spells take effect around them. It was an understanding shared by both Sages for the younger generation.

The rankers awaiting them on the sidelines got involved in the fight when the infiltrators who stood with Gregory entered the fray. Of course, compared to Edinburgh's rankers, they were very few. So it was only a matter of time before the infiltrators were handled.

However, both sides didn't know a third force would involve itself in this two-way conflict. And it was about to make the conflict even more multi-faceted and dangerous for them all.

Two Sages fought in the clouds and made the skies restless. The rumbling noises from their fights would have made mortals restless if they were present at the scene.

A state of emergency was declared in Edin, the capital city. Various protective domains emerged to protect critical facilities. The special forces observed in the shadows decided to show themselves.

All infiltrators couldn't get into Edin because they didn't have enough elven masks. As such, the infiltrators decided to cause a ruckus in various parts of the kingdom at the same time with Midnight Moon's help.

Prominent cities reported terrorist activities to the Edinburgh kingdom central command at the same time. The kingdom had dispatched various teams to multiple locations to strengthen local forces. As a result, it did not have an overwhelming number of rankers in its capital city.

The situation at the border was even direr. The Layos' army had started to engage in direct conflict with Edinburgh soldiers at various checkpoints.

It seemed that Layos had decided to go all in now at war with Edinburgh. It dropped the pretense and struck the enemy kingdom when it was supposedly at its most vulnerable.

Some cultist groups could also be seen on Layos' kingdom payroll. They started teaming up with the infiltrators and added to Edinburgh's difficulty in dealing with all the problems at once.

Some cultist organizations and infiltrators also attacked Grim Pillar Town. However, an army of monsters intercepted them. The potential attackers did not even see the entrance gates of Grim Pillar Town.

However, it seemed that these infiltrators and cultists would enter the Grim Pillar town in the future. That's because their bodies would be turned into "artworks".

Inside and outside the arena, there was chaos.

It was as if what happened inside Sansara World was only a demo for the participants. The real shitshow unfolded in front of their eyes after they left the separate dimension.

Demonmir was the only person who stood motionless in the center of the arena. He had his eyes closed and a smile on his face. It was clear that he liked chaos. He enjoyed the anger and wrath directed at him by various entities.

Demonmir's mana core rotated at high speeds. He practiced a demonic technique to increase his ranking status staggeringly- right in the middle of the war. The Demon Prince inside him regretted the frailty of the vessel he was forced to occupy. Ottoman's body wouldn't be able to handle a Demon Prince's technique completely if he decided to use it to its full potential.

"This… this chaos is good. This anger is good. Wars are the most effective source of nutrients for any demon. Hehehe.

I would have waited for some more time to do this thing if I had been given administrative rights to Minerva's Utopia. But since I can't have that, I might as well create a mess. Hehe."

Demonmir thought.

He believed that a demon's potential could be gauged by how many wars they caused in their wake, just by existing in any world. He patted himself on the back metaphorically for promoting this war between the two kingdoms in his own way.

He then looked at the Sansara World levitating in the sky above him. He frowned when he sensed Beelzebub's altar hiding within it.

'Hmph! That wretched existence dares oppose me. Who gave him the courage to do so?

I shall get back to him in due time. But first, I need to get rid of that rat. I don't know how he obtained the rights to challenge my domain. But it's time to revoke his rights from him.'

Demonmir narrowed his eyes as he looked at the sky and decided to do something in his head. Nobody fought with him. Some rankers didn't dare to fight Demonmir while others were too busy to deal with him. As a result, he found some time for himself to take care of a certain problem.

"Now… where is he?"

Ottoman started looking around. He also let his mana sense run wild. And he finally found what he wanted.

"Hehe. Found you."

Ottoman had a wild grin on his face as he looked at Eren who was trying to meet up with Nina's group while fighting with infiltrators. The former summoned two broadaxes in his hands and charged them with his Master ranker mana before using his movement spell.

In the next moment, several participants and infiltrators screamed in pain as an unstoppable force swept through the crowd. He attacked everything and everyone in his way without worrying about rankers' individual inclinations.

The Master-ranked entities intervened. But they only managed to keep their young generation safe from Demonmir's indiscriminate attacks. They couldn't stop the man from approaching his target.

"Eren… hang on… we coming for you."

Nina and the rest understood the emergency Eren was in. They also battled infiltrators that popped like wild cabbages in front of them.

The butcher, on the other hand, understood in a split second that his clash with Demonmir was imminent. So instead of running away, he decided to face the demon directly.
