"I WILL KILL BOTH OF YOU AT ONCE!"

Filled with a murderous aura and intense hatred, Drazz yelled at Alice and Aether. Alice was both surprised and pleased because she might finally have a worthy opponent.

"I didn't expect a vile maggot like you could evolve into a worm, even though it's not in your original body," Alice said, sounding condescending.

"I'll do anything to achieve my goal! You must be the master of those damn elves! I'll kill you first!!"

Drazz shot toward Alice at high speed, and a sword formed from a white aura instantly appeared in Drazz's grasp.

[Telepath]

"Aether, watch the surroundings, make sure no one interferes with me,"

"Got it!"

[Telepath End]

Aether, who was in front of Alice, disappeared in less than a second. When Drazz and Alice were very close, Drazz immediately attempted to strike Alice with his full strength.

Alice didn't move, which puzzled Drazz. Alice seemed to have many openings for attack and weak defenses, but Drazz continued his assault to test the extent of his power.

Very casually, Alice grabbed the sword's blade that had been swung at her and wanted to demonstrate the difference in their strengths.

"This is the difference in our power... Even though you absorbed both your friends, your level is still far below mine,"

"Do you know? Even the power gap between creatures with levels 149 and 150 is vast,"

"You bastard!!!!"

Alice easily shattered Drazz's sword with her hand.

"Honestly, I could have killed you when you absorbed both your friends, but I chose to wait for you. A good person always waits for their opponent to be ready before fighting,"

"You're lucky that I'm in a good mood right now,"

The broken blade shards from Drazz's sword floated and attempted to stab Alice's face, but before the sword could reach her, it disintegrated into dust.

"You can't use dirty tricks to defeat me,"

Alice immediately kicked Drazz's right hip, causing a sound as if something had shattered. Drazz was thrown quite far and immediately vomited blood.

This was a completely one-sided battle because the power difference between Alice and Drazz was immense, like an ant facing a deity.

"If that goblin weren't possessed, I'm pretty sure his body would crumble like dust,"

Drazz then tried to get up and focused his gaze on Alice. He also glanced at Flamegator, who was still incapacitated from Alice's earlier attack. However, Drazz needed to use his last card now to have any chance of defeating Alice, even though the odds were extremely low.

"She's incredibly strong..."

"I need to find a way to make her move and stop her from stepping on Flamegator,"

On the other hand, Alice realized something when she saw Drazz, who was seriously injured with just one kick. Although his external injuries were minimal, his internal injuries were severe, with several broken bones.

Drazz's gaze turned to Flamegator, currently being stepped on by Alice, and Alice noticed this. Right now, Alice also needed more information about the Wisp Anomaly. If it became too uncontrollable, she would kill it instantly.

"Do you... want this monster?" Alice asked, looking at Drazz with an expression and a gaze as if she were disgusted.

There was no response from Drazz, but according to Alice's assumption, Drazz wanted the monster.

"In that case, I'll give it to you,"

Alice leaped down behind Flamegator and kicked it, sending it flying and crashing into Drazz's body, nearly killing him. Drazz's human-sized body was hit by a creature much larger than a Triceratops.

Drazz nearly died from being crushed by the Anomaly Flamegator's body. Now, Drazz wanted to absorb the Anomaly Flamegator, whose bones were already shattered, but Alice suddenly teleported right in front of Drazz. Drazz also knew that many of his skills and spells wouldn't work against Alice, so all he could do now was try to absorb the Flamegator.

Alice, who had suddenly teleported in front of Drazz, immediately summoned a purple chain that bound Drazz and sealed all his mana. The chain was one of the Origin Skills originating from her race as an Eternal Demon Lord.

[Origin Skill: Eternal Chain]

Drazz was bound in a lying position, and the Wisp Anomaly possessing Drazz's body couldn't escape. The chain also sealed all of Drazz's senses, such as smell, hearing, vision, and more.

"Unfortunately, I'm not so kind as to let you become stronger again,"

"I'm not the type to allow a Hero to grow stronger in strange ways in front of me,"

"It's time for me to do something else,"

Alice spoke while looking disgusted at Drazz, who was severely injured internally.

"Oh, by the way, about this Flamegator..."

Alice climbed onto Flamegator's body again and immediately stomped on its head until it was crushed, and Flamegator's blood splattered in all directions but didn't touch Alice's clothing.

"I don't like dirty collectibles,"

"Aether,"

Alice called Aether with a somewhat soft voice. As soon as she was called, Aether appeared beside Alice and immediately kneeled while bowing her head.

"Good job, Aether, and take the Goblin and the body of this Anomaly-possessed Flamegator to Azaroth. I want to do something,"

"Understood!"

Alice smiled because her first step had been successful. She didn't smile broadly, but her red eyes gleamed in the night.

On the other hand, Arina also appeared beside Aether and kneeled, then provided some reports that she considered important for Alice to know.

"One of the Ancient Liches was severely wounded in the battle, but I arrived just in time and nearly killed those two Goblin anomalies,"

"But before they died, they disappeared,"

"I apologize for my recklessness!"

Alice glanced at Arina with her red eyes gleaming in the night.

"It's alright, Arina. It's all taken care of. Well done, all of you. In the future, we'll conquer something much greater,"

"Something much larger than this small village,"

----------------------------------------

This is when Aether met Exypno and the other Servants before the Goblin Village conquest began.

"Thank you for welcoming me, everyone,"

Aether walked slowly and then took his seat.

"I don't want to beat around the bush here because I'm following Alice-sama's orders. Exypno, I'd like to ask for your advice on conquering the Goblin race,"

"Well, I didn't expect someone as peculiar as Aether to seek my advice. But that's alright,"

The gaze of all the Servants except Aether then focused on the large mirror showing that Alice and Arina were monitoring the orcs and preparing to conquer them.

"However, Exypno is a highly intelligent Servant, so I must ask for your advice,"

"Alright, I'll give you some advice,"

Exypno's red eyes gleamed, and she smiled widely as if her mouth had torn open. Aether then took a seat, and the other Servants also looked at him.

"So, what's the advice?"

"To make those lowly creatures submit, we need to play the role of heroes who save them from despair,"

"Oh, interesting. Can you explain the details?"

"First, you have to come to the village as a messenger of the Gods and make them feel guilty towards you,"

"Second, use a conspiracy as if some people want to kill you and attack the village. My advice is to use Brain Doppelganger. If there are important people in the village willing to cooperate, that's even better,"

"Third, use monster summoning to slaughter some of the goblins and make them despair,"

"Finally, come and save them like a savior,"

Aether was deeply impressed by Exypno's advice, and she was genuinely amazed.

"Amazing! In that case, I'll depart soon. I'm sure Alice-sama will summon all of you one by one,"

"No problem, see you, Aether!"

"Bye-bye!"

"May your plan go smoothly!"

The other Servants bid farewell to Aether, who was about to embark on the conquest of the Goblin village.

Before Aether disappeared from the room, Exypno spoke with a wide smile.

"Don't forget to bring me something interesting later,"

"No problem, Exypno, you've been a great help,"
