After casting several other defensive spells over myself, I patiently waited for the Fallen to arrive as my soldiers were waiting in the shadows. Thanks to the high fluctuations that my spells made in the ambient magic, casting any kind of detection spells was rendered useless.
Soon enough, the Fallen General was already here, looking straight at me.
"Who would have thought that Duke Gremory would personally appear on the battlefield? What an honor."
Said the Fallen General with a mocking voice, to which I revealed a small, provocative smile.
"No, no. The honor is mine; for my territory to be attacked by an overgrown pigeon is truly something. I always thought they were stupid birds, but maybe they had a little brain."
As I said that, I could see the anger on his face clearly.
'This one is easy to provoke. That is a good thing for me.'
I thought in my head as I kept observing the Fallen as they prepared their Light Spears to attack my barrier. Based on fact, there were around fifty thousand of them here; the barrier would break in one wave. I am not strong enough to withstand such an alarming number of attacks... at least not now, without proper preparations.
"What it is, pigeon? Did you forget your brain searching for bread on the streets from human beggars?"
Seeing the General wasn't a patient person, I decided to provoke him into acting rashly. If the Fallen fired the first wave, my army would have the best time to attack, as the Fallen would be defenseless for several seconds.
"Fucking bat! Kill that abomination of the animal!"
Screamed Fallen General with rage as he barked his orders, and Fallen Angels started preparing their Light Spears and shot them at me, to which I revealed a bloodthirsty grin as it started.
'Idiots.'
I thought while activating the pre-prepared teleportation rune as at the same time the attack fell, thousands upon thousands of devils appeared and started madly attacking Fallen Angels. All of my soldiers were of Middle-Class in terms of physique; countless of them were even in terms of Energy Reserves, and many were High-Class.
Spells of Devil Magic were being used in thousands as they fell on the defenseless Fallen Angels that were just comprehending what had happened. After the first salvo of the devil magic came the second one, this time from the High-Class soldiers that were taught Tier Magic. This one was far more destructive, and hundreds upon hundreds of Fallen were being killed with each spell.
"Ambush! Regroup and counterattack!"
Shouted Fallen Angel General as he saw thousands of his soldiers being killed in the ambush by devils; just now, he realized that he was tricked by the devil standing here.
"Isn't it nice? When the blood of your enemies flows like a river and falls down like rain?"
I asked the rhetorical question as I released tens of Combat-Tier spells, mainly Magic Missles, and Thunderclaps, as countless spells were being shot at the Fallen General.
I was a bit reluctant to use Dark Light as that was my trait.
'Architect, scan.'
I ordered in my head.
[Class: Ultimate
Holy Power: 213
Strength: 49

Vitality: 30]
'Hmm... in terms of physique, he is weaker than me, while he has larger energy reserves. However, most Fallen are not very creative and use only Light Spears. Similar to devils, they don't use magic often.'
I thought in my head.
Fallen General quickly unleashed his four pairs of wings and used them as protection against incoming spells, as he knew he could not dodge. Also, thinking it to be simple devil magic, he was confident that he could withstand the attack with a bit of enhancement from Holy Power.
How wrong he was. As soon as approximately 154 spells fell upon him, it shot him backward, several tens of meters, as he coughed blood from his mouth.
"Not your average devil magic, right? Though I don't wait, that pigeon like you would understand the beauty of the mysteries of the arcane."
I mocked as the Fallen General screamed in anger and released several huge Light Spears at me that were flying at me with tremendous speed.
With the help of my four pairs of wings, I flew high in the air and easily dodged each of them while shooting back a few spells, this time Tactical-Tier ones.
Unfortunately for me, Fallen General was aware that magic released by me was perilous, so he immediately dodged the spells. However, they ended up hitting countless Fallen Angels that were behind him, evaporating them to oblivion.
'Hmm... he is good at dodging even while he is injured. With this speed, he will probably try to escape with his life; that would not be good.'
Seeing that I had no chance, I didn't want to let Fallen General escape.
I flew with my top speed at the Fallen General as I gripped my scythe Rosenkreutz. I wanted the Fallen General to think I would engage him in close combat.
As I was nearing him, he saw that I had a melee weapon; he arrogantly decided to fight me in close combat.
As we were only a few steps away from each other, something unexpected happened. Several portals appeared below and behind the Fallen General, and chains from Dark Light shot out of them, enveloping Fallen General, not allowing him to move an inch.
"You are... are... Dark Light."
Said shakily Fallen Angel General with a broken voice.
"Yes, and thanks to your stupidity, your death is sure."
I said as I severed his head in one swing of my scythe. Due to him being bounded with Dark Light Chains, he couldn't move an inch.
"Hmm... I am really clumsy with weapons. Architect, build training mech and upload martial arts and fighting styles related to scythe."
I ordered. Solar Federation often used training mechs to train soldiers in martial arts or weapon masteries. It was very efficient and fast. I only needed to reach Expert-rankled mastery. Especially for the upcoming Conquest, as barbarians without magic would often tend to use close-combat, it would be bad for me If I couldn't use magic properly.
