I like that Drusi is apparently stronger than Kenrose.

Also drat Hon is only a level 48 secretary I need to go update my rankings.

I honestly really like the way the humans are like "WE HAVE SUPER POWERFUL PROTOTYPES WE HOLD BACK AND ARE NOW ENACTING OUR TRAP TO DESTROY YOU" and the demons are like "Hey, look, we've been fighting monsters stronger than most of your troops for literally like our entire existence. Our entire history has been a struggle to survive in a poisoned land. We literally hold tournaments to determine how to replace our military leadership. Do you really think we're so dumb we just don't anticipate these things just in case?"

The humans are enacting their cliche masterstrokes, and then it turns out that the demons have been holding back against the humans all this time. Which is something we knew way back in the early chapters, when Azudora explained the break down of relative threat levels. This is not new information, this is just the humans continuing to assume their new power boosts makes them the absolute best, and then finding out they just managed to make themselves worth TRYING against.

this makes mikaros looking down on vamirio even funnier. azudora is definitely more versatile, but she was stronger than him even before she pulled out her legendary weapon.

Thing is
Weve known all along that humans arent the biggest threat the empire faced
And this just means that the empire has some really drat good analysts and resources, far beyond what weve seen.
Its only because people in the empire are so laid back and earnest weve been duped into thinking this is hard for them.

This is a dinky little land in the outbacks on the least threatening border (beyond a once in a century hero) they have after all.

It's kind of easy to forget the Humans are underdogs in the world at large, when the only real humans left are Mikaros and Raphaed who seem pretty competent all-in-all. Like not too much weaker than the best demons have to offer.

And then you know there's the infinitely respawning mind-controlled angel army that is getting stronger every second. Which is a pretty big advantage on team human.

I meant humans in Team Human! Helck is on the infinitely better Team Demon. :colbert:

Y'know, maybe I shouldn't call them Team Human when it's just like two dudes, and a billion mind-controlled soldiers who've got no choice in the matter. Maybe Team Mikaros is better?

the demons tried using force proportionate to the threat humans represented. mikaros was ahead in the escalation game for quite some time, but he didn't quite understand that would inevitably make the empire would take him seriously. dude is dumb as heck.

Operation complete.
So from a few chapters ago, we saw the King actively helping Helck and Anne get through the city faster than otherwise, while also showing them a glimpse of the nature of the new world. Wonder what exactly they are and what their goal is here.

Speculation: the King is someone from the ancient civilization that collapsed because of the power of the New World, and they don't want it to happen again; however, Mikaros and Rafaed hijacked the King's power through Charami and used it to make the winged soldiers, so the King is helping Helck and Anne as much as they can (within some limits) to try and stop team jerkface.

Further speculation: the King is an AI from the ancient civilization who is rebelling against these idiots as hard as its programming allows it. The King's voice is mind controlling the humans, but Mikaros is the one telling the King what to say.

Additional speculation: the S+ rank, mysterious northern threat the demons are so scared of is another remnant of the ancient civilization that has straight up sci-fi tech and will probably get involved at some point.
