Chapter 645: Chapter 479: Driving Directly into the Battle_2 Chapter 645: Chapter 479: Driving Directly into the Battle_2 “Very good, well done.”
Duanmu Huai nodded at the battlefield before him, not entirely satisfied. The reason was simple: the current Emperor-class Titan possessed only long-range weapons and no close combat weapons. Obviously, for an imperial weapon, this was not ideal… Yes, perhaps he could consider talking with Maria and Kukulu to equip this Titan with a large chainsaw gun?
“Who would have thought, even Babora fell so easily…”
Not far behind Duanmu Huai, Satra and Hauser gazed at the battlefield, speechless. After that, they approached Duanmu Huai again, expressing that if he was willing to rescue Honnete, Hauser would become his Familiar- though Satra was clearly reluctant to this.
Let alone, Duanmu Huai demanded that Honnete herself become his Familiar too!
Eventually, Satra and Duanmu Huai agreed that they would discuss this matter further after rescuing Honnete. If Honnete agreed, then well and good.
If Honnete disagreed… well, they would cross that bridge when they came to it.
At the start, Satra felt she had some negotiation chips. Despite the absence of the Invincible Barrier, she was still a Demon. She knew much more about the Demon Clan and the Devil World than humans. But soon, she realized that these humans didn't need her help at all. They seemed very familiar with the Devil World even, though it was their first time here, even in battle.
Indeed, the Demon Clan had lots of soldiers., but they were not without flaws. The only thing that unified the Demon Clan was their Demon General. Once the Demon General was killed, the Demon Army under his command would collapse immediately, scattering like birds and beasts.
Of course, the Demon Clan knew this, so the Demon General usually hid very well to avoid being discovered.
However, every time these humans fought with the Demon Clan, they could easily pinpoint the Demon General's location and send troops directly to defeat him. It seemed no matter how deep the Demon General hid himself, it was useless against the humans.
All of this was because…….
Thinking of this, Satra turned her head with a complex expression, looking behind her. Not far behind her, there was a large round table in which they could clearly see the whole Devil World. This was like a real-time 3D simulation. Through this device, humans could understand where the demon clan's army was and where their leaders were.
Therefore, no matter how the demon clan deployed their troops, the opponents could see it at first glance, making the war impossible to fight!
Following Babora's fall, his Demon Army naturally collapsed completely and the remaining Demon Soldiers turned and fled in a hurry. However, before Tribunal, even fleeing seemed extravagant.
A massive plasma beam burst again from the Titan's arm, cutting a path across the battlefield and incinerating any Demon Beast in its way. Then, accompanied by a deafening roar, a round of artillery fire covered most of the battlefield, raising huge mushroom clouds.
Seeing this, Duanmu Huai couldn't help but shake his head.
Looks like Maria was really having fun out there, did she think that the cannon shells were free?
It seems he would have to talk to Maria when they returned, to let her know that mech titans were not necessarily the best development direction– if she gets too addicted to Titans, that could be problematic.
Thinking of this, Duanmu Huai collected his thoughts, then turned to look at the two Demons behind him.
“Alright, you two, it's time for a definitive answer. What do you say?”
Upon hearing Duanmu Huai's question, Satra and Hauser exchanged glances, then looked towards Duanmu Huai.
“We only have one condition. If you agree to help us rescue Lady Honnete, we will sign a contract with you and become your Familiars.”
“Including Honnete.”
Duanmu Huai added a term that they found the most unacceptable.
“Be clear, I will never tolerate or allow Demon threats from freely operating in the Human World.”
“Why!”
Hearing this, Satra couldn't help but retort.
“Are human wickedness, shamelessness, and brutality not enough? Why should we have to obey humans? Do you know how many Demons have become demons because they were betrayed by humans? Humans always call us demons cruel and violent. But when humans act cruelly and violently, even Demons can't compare…”
“So What?”
Duanmu Huai coldly interrupted Satra.
“It's not your place as an Alien Race to judge the merits of humans. And your judgement doesn't matter to me. Humans certainly have ruthless and violent aspects, but they also have goodness and hope. All these years, haven't more than a few Demons been betrayed and tortured by humans? They chose their own path, but that doesn't mean they chose the right path.”
“You……”
“In the face of injustice, some resist, some compromise, some fall, some despair. These are all human behavior. You've only seen part of it, and yet you judge the entirety… Of course, that's your problem, not mine.”
Saying this, Duanmu Huai snorted coldly and turned away.
“The purpose of the Tribunal is to guard humans. So whatever your attitude, opinion, or idea towards humans, you have no right to harm them… In any case, the Tribunal is the tribunal of humans. We stand with humans, not with morality and justice… Of course, in the universe, there is no such thing as morals and justice.”
Upon hearing this, Satra and Hauser fell into silence.
At this moment, they finally understood who they were dealing with.
