Chapter 2622: Cripple List

“Still, it is very sad to see these little ones die; they had so much potential and are now all gone,” sighed the old lord of glass as he looked at the graph showing the fatalities.

Nobody is happy seeing the fatalities, including me, who have worked so hard on them and spent an immense amount of resources. Still, it is something they have to go through; I go through it, and every person sitting here has gone through and gone through it whenever they walk into the battle.

Only through the blood and fire will they forge the will strong as the steel; while the battles are not the only thing important to forge a still and constant battles might make brittle that it will break with a single tap, but it is most important.

The project is not just filling them with resources and advancing them in power; no, they also get vacations, activities, and time to develop emotions.

The combination of all these factors develops a powerhouse; battles are important. My thoughts might have been different if I had been born in a peaceful world, but our world is not at peace. It had been invaded by a very dangerous race that sees us as nothing but food.

“Till now, we have lost twenty-three Grandmasters across the battles; by the time the battle would end, the numbers would likely double,” stated Lord Whitmore.

“The Grandmasters are doing much better than we have imagined, the fatality is lower than what we have estimated, and thanks to Grandmasters, we might be able to save some,” said the Grand Commander while glancing at my horror-filled face.

I have inserted the healing seed into each Grandmaster; as long as they are not decapitated or their fatal organs are not destroyed, they will be saved.

In the battle of radiant snow fortress, we have lost four Grandmasters, but one of them has survived. She is now healing under Grandmaster Charline; her injuries are very serious and would need at least a month to heal, even with my help.

Saving even a single Grandmaster is a big thing; every single Grandmaster is a strategic asset, and we need a huge amount of resources and time to create one.

“The loss of Lord Tai and Lady Croft is great; they have died a heroic death,” said Grand Commander, and the whole table fell into silence. We had not just lost the Grandmasters but also the High Grandmasters, two of them, which is our biggest loss in battles so far.

“At least we are able to kill seven of their High Grandmasters; more than half of them were killed by the Grandmasters alone,” said Lord Whitmore, and all of them looked at me, and for once, I was grateful for my frozen face.

Though, I would have really liked; it if I had other emotion other than the horror on my face.

“It seemed like you Grandmaster really have a chance to break the killing record set by your predecessor,” said Lady Vivian with a laugh.

She is talking about Her Excellency Roosevelt, who had the highest killing record in High-Grandmaster, Quasi Grandmasters, and Grand Lords. Many people might think it is Ramona Hawthorn who had killed the most, and she also has a score of killing most Tyrants and Tyrants of Grandmaster class, but it is Her Excellency who had the biggest score.

She had killed the most number of Grand Lords, officially it is seven, but Ramona Hawthorn herself had said that Her Excellency had killed more than that.

Suddenly everybody’s face became serious; a change had occurred on the battlefield. It is a battle between councilman Leon and councilman Singh against Graga of silver rock, a member of the coven; they have been fighting against it before they even came here, but now the battle has become serious.

“Should we send Lady Pise?” asked Lord Whitmore; “No, they are capable of containing it,” replied Grand Commander and turned to look at one top three screens where three Grand Lords of Humans are five fighting against Five Grand Lords of Grimms.

Their battles have reached a horrifying stage, especially the battle between Matron Mavis and the leader of the coven.

They have changed the whole geography, the lakes have vanished, and the volcanos have erupted as the abyssal fire of the Matron Mavis clashed against the golden fire of nine annihilation suns, the most powerful grand art of the Grimms.

In the other battle, Sky Elder is fighting against the two Grimm Grand Lords; that battle is also blurred; all three of them are moving very faster, even matron mavis and the leader of the coven.

The third battle is between Grand Tower Mistress Angela and two Grand Lords of Grimms; it is most clear. Well, at least we could see Lady Angela, who is most staying at one spot.

She has the most strangest moves I have ever seen, and if I did not know better, I would have throught she had practiced some kind of grand art. She did not; these moves she is fighting with were created by herself and polished for four hundred years.

This is why she is even contending against a Grimm Grand Lord with the Grand Art; it is said that after the lord of glass, she is the hardest to kill among Grand Lord of humans.

I looked for a few seconds before I turned back to the battle between Lord Singh and Lord Leon, where they were getting beaten back by the Grimm. Members of covens are extremly powerful, and unless you are Grand Lord or have a ‘Body’ like a grand commander, it is very hard to deal with them.

It is commendable that two councilmen are even fighting against it and the only reason they even have a chance of fighting is because of councilmen leons Shields, that even a member of the coven couldn’t break, and due to the protection of shields, Lord Singh was able to launch those ultrafast blows at the Grimm.

His speed is really something else; he is able to match against the Grimm in the speed.

He is a rare light elemental powerhouse and most proficient in using the light power to increse his speed, which is the reason why he had one of the best kill counts in the whole council.

“It seemed like Futra didn’t feel satiated by the last battle,” said the Grand Commander seeing Futra appearing on the battlefield d. “Lord Whitmore, send Lady Pise to the battlefield d,” she ordered.

“Yes, Grand Commander,” Lord Whitmore replied and tapped a couple of buttons on the table. Ten seconds later, Lady Pise appeared on the battlefield d and is now moving toward them.

“It seemed like it had come to take revenge for the death of Bastr,” said the old lord of glass slowly, surprising a few council members. This is the first time we are acknowledging the death of a coven member; since we did not see it dead, we did not consider it dead, and most of the time, these people come out alive.

“The injuries that Hera brought on it were too serious for it to survive; by the time we had left, the majority of its core had been frozen; even if it somehow survived miraculously, it won’t be able to project more than Grandmaster class power,” said the lord of glass, while Grand Commander and Lady Vivian acknowledged.

“Good; we will add it to the cripple list,” said Lord Whitmore in a while, tapping on the surface of the table.
