Chapter 297 Trust

The goddesses have fallen, the theater has been repaired, and Richard is ready to attack Uthogard.

Uthogard suddenly appeared in the sky above Yggdrasil. This sudden incident is a disaster for the local humans, the demons of the empire, and even for all creatures. Once Uthogard falls, the consequences are known to everyone. Although the gods represented by Diluka continue to comfort the local people, the obvious threat in the sky still makes most people unable to remain stable. People are afraid of extinction, and the threat they face makes them despair. When people's emotions change drastically, people or organizations with ulterior motives will make a move, and Richard is one of them. While Diluka is trying to appease people's hearts, Richard's Twilight Sect is taking the opportunity to grow rapidly.

However, all commanders, including Richard, did not take this little action seriously. The primary problem is still the big island in the sky. Although Diluka destroyed the ritual in the last battle in the theater, the theater fell into Richard's hands. Uttorgard in the sky has not made any moves recently, but no one dares to guarantee whether there is a similar ritual in the Demon King's Palace in Uttorgard. If so, Uttorgard may return to the track of a head-on collision with Valhalla at any time.

This worry also happened to the people in Uthogard. The fear they endured was doubled. In addition to not knowing when they would fall and die, they also had to face the iron-blooded politics of the Demon King.

The options for them were simple: either resist or submit.

The vast majority of people chose to submit, but there was still a small number who chose to resist and survive. These people also pointed out a good landing point for Richard and his team, and at the same time, they also passed on intelligence to Richard. Most people in the imperial capital prayed to the Demon King to give them a chance to survive. The fear of the Demon King was deep in their bones, so if Richard reached the capital of the empire, the residents of the capital would do everything they could to resist. Even though everyone knew that Richard led a team that could fight against Slud, only a few joined Richard and his team.

Looking at Primatis' report, Richard shook his head: "What a bunch of hopeless slaves. Since no one in the Empire can help us, we have to rely on ourselves!"

However, being able to get some intelligence from the capital is also a gain, although it is far from what expected.

"Not everyone has the same firm will as you." Seeing Richard put down the report, Diluka said softly.

Richard studied the countermeasures at the table for a long time, and Diluka waited here for a long time. At first, Diluka said that she had a question for Richard, but because Richard was thinking about countermeasures, Diluka did not ask. In addition to Diluka, there is also Odin who has not been seen. This time, Richard decided to use all the elite forces to attack Uttogard, and Odin is naturally no exception. Odin, who had been missing and hiding in the World Tree after the theater battle, came back in a hurry when he heard that they were going to attack the capital of Thrud. However, Odin asked some meaningless greetings, and Richard just fired her away.

"Why do we always have to fight at a disadvantage?" Originally, Richard's total army was larger than Thrud's, but if the residents of the capital were added, Richard's army would not be enough.

Diluka held her head and couldn't answer.

"We have to look for a breakthrough again. Tsk, it's another tough battle one after another." Richard laughed and looked up at Uttogard in the sky through the window. "The people there are so stupid, like tamed lambs. They dared not even breathe when Slud glared at them. It would be fine if they didn't choose me. After all, I am an outsider to them. They also didn't choose Rocky. Rocky's popularity and appeal are really too low." "

Actually, it would be the same if it was Ymir..." Diluka muttered softly.

Richard nodded: "I know, it's just a headache. Too many ants can kill an elephant."

"Then take a rest. Only after a good rest can you work better."

"Yeah." Richard leaned back in his chair and suddenly remembered something and asked with his eyes squinting, "By the way, when you just came, you asked me all the questions. What did you want to ask?"

"You... why did you bring me to this battle?" Diluka asked in a low voice.

"Why not take you with you?"

"Last time at the theater, if it weren't for me, Slud would have been destroyed by you."

Richard shook his head and said, "It's not your fault. It's all Slud's fault. You are a victim controlled by him. You can't be blamed at all."

"But, I might be controlled again this time."

Richard smiled: "Do you have so little confidence in yourself?"

Diluka bit her lower lip and looked very unconfident.

Richard stood up, patted her shoulder and said, "I have confidence in you."

Diluka's eyes widened.

"Don't forget, you are our trustworthy comrade-in-arms. Among the goddesses, I met you the earliest and have been with you the longest. I know you best."

"Richard... I didn't expect, I didn't expect that one day I would be able to hear you evaluate me like this..." Diluka's eyes were full of emotion.

Diluka wiped her eyes, and seeing Richard's affirmative smile, Diluka couldn't help but smile naturally. The self-blame that had been weighing on her heart could finally be put down.

Seeing her leave happily, Richard closed his eyes: "Diluka...what fate will be judged for her..."

After a good rest, Richard walked out of the room and walked to the theater lobby. The theater lobby has now been turned into a conference hall, and the throne has been dismantled and used as Richard's seat. Now the goddesses and the commanders of the various legions are standing there to welcome Richard who has just arrived.

Richard looked at Zonoz, Yoshisa and the goddesses sitting in a chair and suddenly laughed: "It's different to use a theater as a meeting room. Even with Zonoz and Yoshisa here, it doesn't seem crowded."

Everyone laughed, and Richard waved to everyone and walked to his seat and sat down.

"Read the report. Who's going first?"

Richard immediately got to the point, now time is life.

Primathis looked around and said, "Then I'll start first."

Richard nodded. Primathis's job was not easy. After the battle for the theater, Primathis reorganized the troops again under Richard's orders, and it was not completed until the day before yesterday.
