Chapter 498 – A Broken Army
– Awful… – Michael whispered.
The angels did not even know what happened on Olympus.
– So… the gods of Olympus are destroyed?
– No, that’s not true, but… – Kang Woo briefly explained how things are on Olympus.
– You can’t imagine a worse situation, – Uriel darkened.
Now they have only a month left before Baal’s attack, and the news that the Gods of Olympus will not be able to take part in the battle is simply terrible.
– This is what Baal hoped for, attacking Olympus.
– Oh… – Uriel shook his head. – How strong must Baal be to defeat Olympus alone?
Everyone understands how powerful beings endowed with Divinity are. Michael himself possesses it, so they shouldn’t know. Therefore, it is rather difficult to believe that one demon, having flown into the lair of creatures endowed with Divinity, was able to deal with them alone.
– Strong. Too strong, “” Kang Woo answered shortly,
He said this not to scare the audience or to exaggerate reality. Baal is indeed strong, so much so that even Kang Woo was not sure if he could defeat him. No matter how he turns out to be as strong as the Titans who created this world.
Silence fell. Even the loudly laughing and always cheerful Gabrielle could not help but gloom upon hearing the news about Olympus.
– Maybe I shouldn’t say that, but relax a little. “Kang Woo smiled slightly. – Because the battle still cannot be avoided. Instead of giving in to fear and worry, on the contrary, we should think about how to increase our chances.
He said everything correctly, but it sounded easy only in words. It’s like running away from a dump truck on a highway. How many will be able to remain positive in this situation? Perhaps nine out of ten will succumb to panic and will not be able to react normally to what is happening.
“And yet we are dealing with angels.”
They couldn’t react otherwise to Kang Woo’s words.
– Well, yes…
– If we sit and fear, then we will definitely not change anything.

Uriel and Michael nodded gravely. Such a reaction from Uriel looked very unnatural and completely unusual.
“But that’s better.”
If they could not pull themselves together, their cooperation would be useless.
– First, let’s go to the Sanctuary, and there we’ll start thinking about our next plan of action.
– Okay, – Michael nodded in agreement.
Everyone followed Kang Woo, and Michael, remembering something, he asked the question:
– By the way, why were we told not to bring other angels with us?
– Yes, I’m interested too. Why did you say only the three of us come? – followed by the same question asked by Uriel.
Michael approached Kang Woo and continued:
– If the matter is in the state of the Castle of the Holy Angel, then we are almost…
– No, not that, – Kang Woo shook his head.
He turned to Iris and Michael for help, but said not to bring the rest of the angels with him.
– This is because we will build the defense a little later. There is no need to come all together right now.
Michael was surprised at this answer. Will the defense be erected later? He didn’t understand why Kang Woo was saying that.
– There is a month left before the start of the war, isn’t it time to start preparing?
– Yes, the war is really close, but the most important thing is not to get caught.
Baal’s army will descend on Seoul in a month, and that’s a fact. In order to give a worthy rebuff, and so that the date does not move, they need to pretend that they do not know anything about the day the war began.
“Otherwise, it won’t make any sense.”
Although Kang Woo made it so that Baal could not watch them by interfering in the system, they still couldn’t calm down one hundred percent.
“We need to protect Seoul.”
For success, you need to prepare for the erection of protection, but you need to activate it at the last moment so as not to arouse suspicion. There is simply no other way.
– I didn’t think about it at all…
Michael understood what Kang Woo was talking about, rubbed his chin and nodded slightly.
– But won’t we get caught anyway when we start building up the defense?
– We’ll prepare a little in advance for this, – Kang Woo replied shrugging his shoulders.
In fact, he did not speak as confidently as before, and he himself had a little doubt about his intention.
“But,” Kang Woo clenched his fists slightly, “it won’t be very difficult to distract this infection.”
If you want to hide something, you need to divert attention. And Kang Woo was sure of this.
– A difficult business awaits us…
Michael narrowed his eyes and nodded.
– It’s still necessary.
– As expected from the God of Splendor, ha ha! – Michael laughed slightly.
– Go to the Guardian’s Sanctuary for now. Leila will meet you there and explain everything in detail.
– Kang Woo, and you?
– I need to do something.
In order to distracting Baal’s attention and covering the whole of Seoul with protection, one month is clearly not enough. So there is no time for empty greetings and chatter.
– Ah… – exclaimed Uriel and wilted.
– Sorry.
Apparently, Iris was also upset that their first meeting with Kang Woo in a long time was interrupted so quickly, which caused her shoulders to sag too.
– And I see you’re popular, yes, God of Splendor? Gabrielle laughed and put her hand on Kang Woo’s shoulder.
Her smile was so wide that it seemed as if the corners of her lips would reach her ears… She exhaled heavily and Kang Woo smelled a strong smell of fumes.
– Can you tell me why you attract people so much?
– Ha ha ha…
“What are you doing, woman who went?”
– I already belong to my beloved.
“You risk being killed.”
– Hmm, so it’s even more interesting!
“And everything can end badly.”
– Here you go.
Kang Woo pointed in the direction they needed and turned away from Gabriel.
– No, not interesting, – she clicked her tongue and pulled away from Kang Woo.
The guy glanced at her briefly and grinned.
“You don’t know I just got a chance to be saved.”
Kang Woo shook his head and started walking when suddenly Michael called out to him.
– Before we leave, I would like to convey something.
– And this… It’s almost over now, is there any point in talking about this?
Uriel wanted to object to something, but in the end he just asked a clarifying question. He spoke about it without much interest.
– In our situation it is better to share any information, albeit not very significant.
– What are you talking about? – Kang Woo asked with interest and turned to Michael.
– Not so long ago we found a group of demons at the RNO.
– A group of demons?.
– Yes, about a hundred.
– Not so much, but not that little either. There were no problems?
– About this… – Michael frowned. – They were broken.
– Broken?.
– Yes, to be more precise, for some unknown reason they were badly wounded.
– By whom?
– We don’t know that. It can be assumed that they staged a massacre among themselves.
The war between demons. As soon as Kang Woo heard about this, he remembered Elias’s words that the army of Baal was mainly composed of the demons of the Nine Thousand Circle of Hell.
He definitely mentioned it. So Baal took the place of Kang Woo on the Nine Thousand Circle of Hell when he disappeared.
“And the fact that now there are warriors between the demons…”
Kang Woo remembered his servants. He fought and defeated the Great Demons and gained the right to rule the Nine Thousand Circle of Hell.
“Really…”
A thought flashed through my head, which I didn’t want to pay attention to. From the very moment Kang Woo heard that Baal was gathering demons in the Nine Thousand Circle of Hell, he immediately began to think about what was in the past. He had several guesses about this.
“But…”
As Michael said, there were about a hundred demons who died. That ruled out one of his assumptions.
Kang Woo frowned. Sincere hatred appeared in his gaze.
“This is not so? He asked himself, trying to convince himself that this was nonsense. “Most likely, they just lagged behind their army.”
He continued to deny the thought that had come to his head, but it was still not forgotten. In the end, he agreed with her.
– Hmm… is there any information about these dead demons? Maybe their names or characteristics? – Kang Woo asked quietly.
Michael nodded.
– Yes, they definitely have a leader… – Michael pondered, scratched his chin and then continued: – He is called the “Guardian of Fate.”
Kang Woo closed his eyes. What he tried to deny turned out to be true. Doomguard was the head of the third unit of the royal army of Kang Woo.
– Can you… tell me where they are now?
– Of course, they are in the southeast of the RNO. But we almost sorted them out. If you want to interrogate them, you can wait a bit and we…
– No, – Kang Woo cut off Michael’s words and glared sharply. – I’ll go there myself.
– Personally?
– Yes, there is a high probability that they are associated with the demon from the prophecy. So I would like to talk to them personally.
– And, in that case, we will attach a group to you…
– No, no, everything is fine. You can just name the location. I’ll deal with them myself. “” Kang Woo waved his hand and smiled.
