Rebirth of the Strongest Dungeon Master

Isaac followed him. That young antfolk seemed to tremble as he walked. Not even daring to look back.

Actually, Isaac didn't expect to meet them. He intended to extract information from the antfolk warriors he met along the passage. However, no one told him the location of the eggs.

For some reason, he had trouble extracting information from them. Isaac could get the antfolk warriors scared and hysterical, but they quickly fell silent when it came to the eggs. He didn't know what caused this, but it was certain that they were fiercely loyal to their queen.

Isaac was lucky to meet the antfolk who were guiding him now. He thought that the worker antfolk were too young, and thus too naive in his view of the situation.

'I have to be prepared in case something bad happens.'

Although the young antfolk were naive, Isaac could not breathe a sigh of relief just yet. There was still a possibility that he would be framed.

In the middle of walking down the long, dimly lit hallway, suddenly a small quake occured. Isaac felt it. He quickly told the young antfolk walking in front of him to stop.

"What's wrong strang... I mean, is something wrong, Lord Isaac?"

The demon did not answer. He was still standing, silent, and motionless. He raised a hand in the air, signaling the young antfolk to be quiet.

Isaac walked over to the hallway wall and touched it. A vibrating sensation tickled his palm.

Naturally, his eyes narrowed.

"Hmm..."

Isaac quickly looked around, searching for any holes or something. He saw a fragile wall, as evidenced by its wide cracks. Without thinking twice, he punched the cracked wall.

A small hole the size of a human head formed.

He peered into the hole. His eyes opened wide.

"Ouh... you're the cause of this mess, huh," Isaac muttered with a grin.

There was a large cavity that was almost as big as the palace hall. There was a battle going on, dozens of antfolk warriors surrounded a woman with red hair. She was alone, accompanied only by the giant scythe that was in her hands.

Alynaan fought against the army of antfolk warriors.

"No wonder I found few antfolk warriors."

The duchess seemed to be in a superior situation despite being outnumbered. She killed every antfolk warrior who tried to capture her. Among the dozens of stone-armored antfolk, there were two warriors who were able to keep up with the duchess.

A gray armored antfolk and a black metal armored antfolk. Both of them were certainly familiar to Isaac.

"Yandez... and the other one... Kaies? This is interesting. Let's see how far they go."

Watching the fight with interest, the young antfolk suddenly called out to him. Isaac turned to him, a look of curiosity mixed with fear evident on the antfolk's face.

"L-lord Isaac... are we going to continue the quest?" asked the young antfolk, his voice sounding shaky.

Besides to fear, Isaac also saw a curious look on his face.

"Come here!"

The antfolk pointed at himself. "Me?"

"Who else is here besides you?"

Realizing he had just asked a stupid question, the young antfolk quickly approached Isaac. He stood near the demon with fear enveloping his body.

Isaac pointed at the hole, signaling the young antfolk to look.

"You've never seen how a demon fights, have you? Take a look."

With fear still in his chest, the antfolk looked into the small holes. He saw how his kind and comrades were slaughtered.

Slash! Slash! Slash!

The curved scythe was swung so fast that the wind whistled. Dozens of antfolk warriors died in a single slash.

There were at least thousands of antfolk warriors who died at Duchess Alyna's hands, but they still attacked the demoness. Of course, she did not spare anyone who tried to kill her.

A large antfolk seemed to be breathing heavily. His antennae were beginning to wither. The black metal armor wrapped around his body was full of scratches. Yandez was completely exhausted. His partner and rival, Kaies, looked the same way.

Arrogance and pride were starting to leave him. One of his antennae was missing, hit by Alyna's deadly scythe slash. He was lucky enough not to lose his head.

The two antfolk who were considered the strongest in this tower were unable to withstand any longer.

They had both reached their limits.

On the other hand, Alyna still looked fit. Even her face looked lit up.

The woman separated some of her enemy's troops, so their numbers were drastically reduced.

She could have killed Yandez and Kaies quickly, if the antfolk warriors hadn't gotten in the way. They were always protecting their leaders, as if they were meat shields.

In Alyna's eyes, the antfolk warriors were like weeds. No matter how much she wiped them out, their numbers did not decrease, as if they were endless.

However, this time that would no longer be the case.

She had found a spacious place. A place suitable for casting large-scale magic.

Bang!

Alyna slammed her scythe into the ground. The antfolk warriors watched her carefully.

"Stranger! Give up, you have no way to run!"

Kaies shouted, warning the duchess. Behind Alyna's back, there was no more path. A dead end.

Of course it was a bluff. The antfolk warriors looked pessimistic, the antennae on their heads withering. Their condition was much worse than Alyna's. The stone armors wrapped around their bodies were broken. Some of them were no longer clad in armor at all.

They only depended on their leader.

Alyna chuckled. "For a dying ant, you're pretty arrogant too. Don't you realize, you survived thanks to your men."

The sarcasm that came out of the duchess' mouth made Kaies furious. But the Queensguard Chief could not say anything. As for the antfolk warriors, their faces turned dark.

"What that stranger said is true, Kaies. We survived until now because the sacrifice of our men," Yandez whispered softly.

Kaies hissed. "Shut up! You think I don't know!"

The two ant monster leaders refocused on their enemy.

Alyna smiled sarcastically. "You guys don't worry. I'll meet you with your men."

Both of her hands emitted light. All the mana flowing in her body was concentrated in her palms. Slowly, the blue light turned into electric sparks. The spark grew bigger and bigger, creating a ball of turbulent lightning in her hands.

The antfolk warriors who saw it began to get nervous, and their leaders Kaies and Yandez were no exception.

"Adios..." muttered Alyna softly.

The ball of lightning shone brightly, killing the entire cave cavity with bright white light. The antfolk covered their eyes.

Yandez, who already knew what would happen next, spontaneously screamed, "Take cover!"

A few seconds later, a powerful explosion occurred.

.

"Did you hear that?"

A woman in a black robe muttered.

Amidst the darkness of the forest, a group of black-robed people stalked the tower. Among them, a silver-haired man looked up at the top of the tower.

"Yes... an explosion. It seems to be from the top of the tower," the silver-haired man replied.

"There was a battle inside the tower. Certainly, there are demons there."

Gavin nodded. "Right, they could have gotten Baby Qilin. This is the perfect time to seize it."

The duke turned his body around, facing his men who hid their faces behind black robes.

"Everyone, we're moving. Prepare for battle."

"Yes, sir," they replied in unison.

Gavin nodded, then he quickly darted towards the tower. The black-robed men followed their leader.

Buuk

The young antfolk fell down. He hadn't expected such a violent explosion of lightning. His face looked deathly pale. While Isaac who stood, watching the battle next to him looked unremarkable.

Luckily, they were peering from a good distance away, so they were not affected by the explosion.

"No... no way..."

The young Antfolk was in complete shock. His gaze was blank, his body trembling.

"That's demon power, but only a little bit of it," Isaac said, sounding a little annoyed.

After seeing Alyna's devastating power, he knew just how much power she had. He had to be even more careful.

Isaac snorted. "We've watched enough." He turned to the young antfolk still sitting on the floor. "Let's get moving. Let's not be lazy."

The young antfolk gasped. He quickly got up, staggering slightly. Isaac helped him up and pushed his body to move quickly.

The two of them resumed their search.

When Isaac left the small hole, he felt a strong aura entering the tower. His hunch told him that the real bloodshed was about to begin.
