"You've been informed about exactly what I want. Aedari reported to her master whom she can't lie to, I listened while she did so. You've been warned about the fact that I would come to claim it. You could prevent it and trade the disc for it, you just choose to not listen. My information is absolute, you're not fooling anyone."
"Wait... wait a minute, I thought she was just lying? I don't really believe her, and I won't open risks for others to invade the Pherith Empire,"
Deroc sighed and replied, "Now, you've destroyed the disc and your pet Aedari caused tons of trouble for us. The deal's now over!"
"You quickly forget that the one who injured me was your empire, healing me afterwards does not make you a savior it merely makes you neutral. We were attacked unprovoked by your army and you also quickly forgot that I was betrayed by Azlariah. She returned and attacked once more after our bargain that she would go away from us. Tell me again about how nice you've treated us?"
"Okay, first of all, you could've died and your empire of demons might have been collapsed into chaos if I didn't save your little lives."
"And, I am NOT responsible about the assault! Azlariah was naughty and undisciplined, but it was not me! I'm innocent!"
"What!?!?" Azlariah shouted in a sudden. "I thought you forgave me?!?!"
"Err..." Deroc paused in silence, "Yes, but this was a real fact. It really happened in the past, because of your bloodlust."
"Deroc, you... I am speechless! Never mind, let's deal with this bitch first,"
"Azlariah, I'm glad that you are now able to behave yourself. Now, we should face that vengeful demoness together."
"I guess I made efforts in vain.. I thought you wanted to protect innocent lives, Deroc. Was that another lie of yours? How about you show yourself, if you defeat me this invasion will be canceled. On the other hand, if I defeat you I'll take what I came for then leave. At least some lives are spared that way - regardless of the outcome."
"Hmm... yes, I always wanted to take care of my people nicely. But I can't lose face and I must also consider nationalism!"
"Fine, let's start! All other Pherithian forces, pause your activities and await orders from Deldrach," Deroc screamed, and the Pherithians cheered for their Cakemaster and Emperor as soon as he finished his word. Deroc has some dirty tricks in mind...
Deldrach would hide a few of the fittest and smartest fiends -- the Faceless One Netherbringers, to assist Deroc and ambush Amber should Deroc be in disadvantage. And if Deroc won, he would rebuild and strengthen his militaries, and invade the Underworld (and maybe the Sanctum) when the time comes.
