Supreme Monarch

Chapter 271: Observer

A few hours earlier. 

 —In the demon king's castle. 

 Seated on an extremely exquisite sofa in the largest office that seemed to be getting more and more luxurious each day— was three figures surrounded by floating holographic screens that projected vastly different live images of different areas in the darknar region. 

 With the help of Loriel and her Azure Dragonflies, the dwarves had been able to get their hands on more valuable materials from the Darknar forest and Ragdek and the others had somehow found time to improve the types of furniture and design of Tyler's new office.

 He had chosen his last office semi-randomly as he had simply wanted a place to have a discussion with Liz and Rain at the time but according to his vassals, that office was no longer buffeting his status or something.

 This was the largest office in the castle and Tyler had to admit, it was way fancier than he had expected. He also didn't know how Ragdek had found the free time to make so much luxurious furniture in only a few days as he had tasked him with various other tasks including making new weapons for the red ogres and beast-men. 

 Luckily, the hobgoblins owned relatively high-quality armors and weapons and Albert had gifted a select few of them high-quality weapons from his massive collections. 

 As for his office, it was at least twice the size of his last and had various sections, there was the workspace where a massive black desk— made of the highest quality wood and lined with Tritanium— was placed, and positioned behind it was a grayish-white leather chair. 

 There was a study space where a mini library was located and a study desk and chair were placed to the side. A resting space which was basically a lounge as four exquisite sofas were stylishly arranged around a small glass coffee table.

 Tyler didn't even think they could make glass yet but apparently, they had an easy method of making the most study glass one has ever seen by using Magic. 

 An array of fruits and wine were placed on the coffee table as a young lady with short pink hair, white rabbits ears, and wearing a cute maid outfit refilled an empty glass before walking back to stand beside the sofa where Tyler was seated on.

 "Hmm…"

 Tyler silently stared at the holographic screens in front of him as he seemed to have been trapped by the two girls beside him. 

 For some reason, Rain and Liz seems to be at odds over something quite stupid. They've both refused to let go of him first as they waited for the other or something along those lines. 

 As he didn't want to be involved, he tried his best to ignore their occasional bickering as he stared at the screens seriously. These seemingly holographic projections were a result of a God Tier Magic artifact he had on him called the Paragon Observer.

 This was a wonderful item that Tyler thought would be the crux of his future information network as not only could it be used on a grander scale, it had God Tier skills like Ultimate clairvoyance and Remote viewing. 

 It also had skills like Magic projection which was essentially a holographic projection of what it sees and given that the item had a worldwide range, it could see everything.

 It also had an amazing skill called parallel construct that allowed it to be duplicated and used in multiple locations within a limited range by creating projected linked constructs of itself. 

 This meant every single room in the castle could be equipped with a copy if need be and the mana consumption wasn't even significant as it could also be powered with Magic crystals for months or even years without fail. 

 As it was designed to be a slick circular device the size of a fist, it could be easily hidden in plain sight or even carried on hand.

This was incredibly valuable as they could now easily share visual information with anyone within the castle. Tyler was even planning to allow Ragdek to do some research on it if duplicates could be made.

 It didn't matter even if they were not artifacts or as powerful as long as they could connect with each other. Creating a futuristic method of communication. Such a thought floated wonderfully in his head as he returned his attention to the screens. 

 There were currently nine protections in front of him each showing the situation with all of the undead regiments. The only reason he still had Flare, Kali, and Zelda out there investigating was to determine which regiments held the hidden demigods as one could not sense auras from the magic projections. 

 Although sounds were not a problem and were even transferred at light speed so there was no lag with the information received. This was the essence of a true God Tier artifact. 

 Tyler kept an eye on the situations developing on each screen. He had seen the first encounter with Emrys and the situation with Rain and Liz from the sky so in reality, he only needed to pay attention to 7 screens.

 The battle with Z, Nessi, and two demigods went according to Uriel's predictions which were a little scary to behold. Although the most entertaining fights had been the ones with Drago and the hobgoblins.

 Everything seem to have gone according to plan and even the reserved Erin had done well. Her task was a little different as she was meant to torture the representatives from the Brimstone family for all to see.

 Tyler knew such cruelty wasn't in her nature which may have been a mean thing to do to her but she still tried her best anyway. He would try to reward her later on In apology.

With that, everything seems to be rounding up so it was about time for the grand finale. 

 Erin and Emrys had finally made it over to the last remaining undead regiment and engaged in battle, wiping the entire army out in a single move. 

 However, something strange had happened as it turned out one of the Great fives had not sent just any demigod here, but a freaking Devil. Such an opponent was troublesome for a multitude of reasons and might prove too strong for even the likes of Erin and Emrys to handle alone. 

 Just as he was about to do something about this, they all suddenly disappeared which was a surprise, to say the least. Tyler was just about to panic when Uriel informed him that they had simply been transported to another dimension of the Devil's creation. 

 'How does that compute as simple. That's another freaking dimension.'

 Still worried, Tyler decided to trust Uriel anyway and wait a while longer to see how things play out. And what do you know, it turns out she was right as always. In less than a minute, everyone had appeared back in the plains but something was different as a massive illusionary figure of death loomed over them.

 "I think it's about time I go out." 

 Not wasting time, Tyler slipped his arms from in between the two girls' chests and got up while patting them in the head to get them to stay. Why he thought that would work was a mystery. 

 "Hmm really, can I come too?" 

 Seeing him stand, Liz hurriedly asked to tag along which made his earlier action pointless and Tyler could not immediately muster a response.

 "Huh.."

 "Wait why do you get to go?" 

 Seeing her friend get the jump on her, Rain snapped out of her fantasy and asked.

 "Because I asked first, duh.." 

 Seeing Rain get riled up over nothing, Liz answered as though rolling her eyes which had only increased Rain's interest in the matter. 

 "That's not a rule, I want to go too…"

 "That's too many people, you should wait here." 

 "That's a total lie. I wanna come. Lord Ty, who do you want to accompany you? Pick me, pick me."

 Rain said excitedly as she raised an arm like a kid and jumped lightly as her chest kept bouncing in an odd combination of being adorable and erotic. 

 "Yeah, please decide who gets to accompany you, Master." 

 Seeing her friend make an unintentional pass at Tyler, Liz who was still donning her skimpy armor tilted leaned forward as she asked Tyler sincerely even though her chest was now sticking out contrasting her cute expression. 

 Tyler had been completely distracted by the sheer amount of cuteness and the erotic scent in the air from two world-class beauties. Feared he may not be able to concentrate as his mind was almost when blank but a name suddenly popped in his head and he just blurted it out. 

 "Huh… Moloc."

 "Moloc!! Why…?"

 Rain and Liz had not expected that response as they both reacted the same way in surprise.

 'Why indeed.'

 Even Tyler wasn't sure why Moloc as Uriel was the one who put the thought in his mind yet she had gone silent and wasn't being of any help in this situation. However, as his eyes wandered about and caught a glimpse off the screen, he was struck by an inspiration. 

 'That's it.'

"I'm only taking Moloc with me because there's a Devil there and he might be able to speak logically with them."

 "Speak with them? Oh… I get it now."

 'Get what!'

"Get what!" 

 Hearing Liz's response to his answer and seeing her nodding with a knowing expression, Tyler's mind immediately raced as he internally screamed and Rain had fortunately echoed his inner voice. 

 "As expected of lord Ty. You've even considered this far ahead."

 "Huh? Oh right, it seems you grasp my intentions splendidly Liz. Good job. I'll be off now." 

 Not sure what she was talking about, Tyler decided it was best to leave now as he also had to retrieve Moloc who hadn't fully regained her strength yet so he wasn't sure why he needed to bring her along but was left with no other options. 

 "Wait what are we getting, someone, tell meeeeee…"

 As he teleported away, Rain seemed to be the only one left in the dark which was unpleasant for her so he crawled over to Liz to cry for an explanation.

 However, Liz just looked at her and a smug smile appeared on her face which felt like a massive bolt of lightning had suddenly struck her.

 "Why Liz… why…"

 "Hehe…"

 Mimicking Rain, Liz chuckled cheekily as another bolt of metal lightning smote Rain as she fell to the ground.

 "Liz what happened to my loving friend. I don't think I like this side of you."

 Rain cried in defeat as Liz sighed. Her friend was being way too dramatic over a simple smug smile and a laugh. It wasn't as if she wasn't found to explain it to her. She had only wanted to have a little fun for once.

 "There there, it's okay don't cry. You should know that love changes a girl so don't expect me to be nice every time. I plan on being Lord Ty's first wife."

 Liz spoke as she crouched down next to the crying Rain while gently petting her head.

 "That's not happening. I'm going to be first."

 Rain replied with conviction as she sat back up and smiled at Liz. 

 "Well, you have to try harder than this, I think I'm making more progress in a day than you have in weeks."

 "Ah… no fair why is there suddenly competition, and there's still Erin to worry about." 

 Rain felt a little dejected. Perhaps her approach to love wasn't the right way but she wasn't someone experienced with it and thus, had only done what she felt like but maybe she would have to change her approach soon.

 Perhaps getting advice from someone experienced would help her become Lord Ty's first wife. 

 "Hehe…" 

 As Liz watched a childlike friend struggle to think of something, she could help but checklist softly as she finally felt things in the castle were becoming more and more exciting. 

 And so, the two girls came to an understanding while Tyler begrudgingly retrieved the perverted Devil that had just been playing with itself for days now.
