Deus: We are all Lords



  Along with the torches, the castle's functions immediately activated as several troops began pouring out of their summoning pool and into the barracks.

Hundreds of creatures began to spawn in the barracks however not all of them were of the same species, there were Dragons, Giant Snakes, Winged snakes, Phoenixes, Qilins etc.

[Lady [Alina Gorman] has been selected as the first-generation alliance leader]

  A system announcement came as they all watched as the lady undergo some profound change. Her aura became even more overpowering and profound, her eyes seemed similar to the old ones.

"I am sure there are no objections" Lady Gorman asked with a slight smile on her face

  Despite the strong front she put up, she knew how quickly and fast her heart was beating. There was no doubt she was strong, unbelievably so but she was still a normal human.

  She had never faced such a large crowd before, or at least she had never been in a position where she needed to address such a number of people. However, just because she had never addressed such a large number of people, didn't mean that she couldn't do so.

  Looking at all who were kneeling before her, a weird feeling of satisfaction arose in her. Despite all she thought herself to be, it had become obvious that she just like every other human craved the power to influence someone else in some way or the other.

"I thought this was a matter for the most qualified not the strongest amongst us" Li Ye said still refusing to accept defeat

  Even if he couldnt win this with his talent alone, he still had his troops. He could bet that nobody in the room had troops as powerful as his dragons. 

  Even if they all had S-rank troops, his dragons still sat at the top of the pile with only a few other races being able to match them

"Man, would you let it rest, you can't beat her in anything" One of the many lords in the room said as he stepped in between the two

"True but i am still stronger than all of you, guess the position for vice-leader is mine" Li Ye said with a grin as he turned away from Alina 

"Bro, why are you like this... this is why many people dont like us, behave yourself" another person said.

  This time however, the speaker was of Asian descent and was clearly of Chinese roots. He couldnt hold himself any longer, initially he planned to just stay and benefit from the alliance but now, he had to take action since he was the only other Chinese in the room.

  He couldnt let some idiot ruin the reputation of the entire nation just because of he was power hungry.

"Do i look like i care?" Li Ye answered as he vanished from his spot

  Almost immediately, he reappeared a few inches from the man but now motionless. His pupils shone white as he slowly fell to the ground, he truly wasn't the strongest neither was he even in the top ten.

"I'm sorry for his behaviour, everyone, don't worry, our people aren't usually like this, this bastard just wasn't raised right" The man said as he bent down and picked up the body and walked to the back of the hall.

  While all this happened, the Alliance Castle slowly came to life as the system automatically assigned roles to each and every creature summoned into it. Based on their kind and abilities, they were either made guards or helpers to attend to the needs of the lords.

  Meanwhile elsewhere, on the outskirts of the extremely large Aenon forest, a group of soldiers could be seen matching up to a village. The village like many lord-owned villages was technically a Castle town.

  However due to their lack of citizens, the town around the castle only contained about ten to fifteen houses including other facilities. Inside the village, several lion beastmen could be seen standing and waiting with their weapons in hand.

  Their auras overwhelming and their eyes thirsty for battle, the village had clearly detected the enemies this time. All preparation had been made as they stood waiting

"My Lady, the soldiers are almost upon us... it would be wise that you leave, even if we did, you alone can continue our race" One of the Beastmen said as he turned to the young woman who was standing behind them all.

The young woman seemed to be of European origin and stood at a height of over six feet. In her hand was a long staff that towered over her but she held it tightly.

"The very fact that I am here, may guarantee our survival and besides I'll probably die within a week of leaving here" the lady replied

"If only I knew his men were this strong" she continued as a regret filled her heart

It seems like the little victory she had achieved in the past had blinded her from realizing the simple truth that there were still others in this world, way stronger than she was.

"They're here!" The beastman announced as silence reigned through the small village.

All of them could feel the incredibly oppressive aura that covered the air. Their breathing became labored and the weaker ones even lost consciousness, it was clear that the other party didn't come to play nor was their any chance of surrender.

"This is Captain Noik of the Deus Army, we request a meeting with your leaders" a loud voice heard from outside the village.

As soon as the voice came, the environment suddenly brightened up as the heavy auras lightened up. A look of shock appeared on the faces of the lions.

Everyone was confused at such a development, the lady hearing this immediately fell to the ground. She didn't know what was about to happen but she was highly relieved that she could finally breathe properly again.

"My lady?" The beastman asked as he turned to her

This was a delicate situation, they had no idea what the enemy captain wanted but no matter how they thought of it, they saw it as a good chance to reconsider their plans and even their alignment.

"Let's go!" She said as she stood up and tried to compose herself but her rough dressing and tattered clothes didn't help in her current situation.

The other Beastmen immediately cleared a path for their lord as she made her way to the large fence around the territory.

Walking out of the territory with a good number of her soldiers to protect her. As soon as she walked out, she saw the six beings who were floating in the air before them.

Each one having three pairs of wings on their backs, the wings shone with holy light and might. Each being could be seen in very familiar gear.

A green patterned uniform that allowed them blend into the environment easily. The bulletproof armour on top of that and finally the guns in their hands.

Due to their human-like appearance, the lady felt like they were normal modern world, military men with wings.

"Are you the leader of this community?" The being in the lead asked

"Yes, I am" she replied as she tried gather as much courage as she could.

She had seen her fair share of fantasy creatures since waking up in this world but never had she seen a winged man. Just the aura that she felt from the being alone made it clear that just one of them was well beyond her and her entire army.

"Good, are you a governor of his Majesty, King [Set] or are you against him... if you aren't a governor, this is your last chance for surrender" The being said in a flat and clearly threatening tone

Hearing them, a deep fear took root in her heart. First, was their impossible power and then there was their lack of emotions.

"We..." She said but trailed off as she looked at her men who had the same look of defeat and despair on their faces.

"We surrender" She said as she bowed to the floating beings

There wasn't a thing she could do in this situation. Even her talent wouldn't guarantee her survival so it was best to surrender. Besides looking at the floating beings behind the leader, they all looked eager to lay waste to her people.

Seeing their leader bowing to another, the lion beastmen slowly began to kneel as well, they knew that the situation was hopeless and their pride wouldn't save them at all.

Silence reigned throughout the area as their hearts leaped to their throats. They didnt know what was going through the minds of these people and worse, they couldn't influence it.

"Well then, Captain Noik and Beta Team 19 greets her ladyship" the Captain suddenly said as several sighs of relief were heard.

Looking up, she saw all six of the beings with their heads down but they still remained high in the sky as though to remind them that they were still superior
