My Life as A Death Guard

Hades single-handedly wiped out three groups of roaming creatures in one night, protecting three small neighboring villages, while the Death Guard fortified nearby medium and large human settlements.

Some suggested that the Death Guard should also take the initiative to attack at night, given that the southern monsters were weaker than those in the north.

With a strange gleam in his eyes, Calas Typhon approved a proposal from a group of eager fighters.

However, this five-man team was attacked by a group of Xenos Slaver on the first night. Though they managed to repel the slavers, three were severely injured.

==================

In the following meeting, Typhon paced slowly around the sand table, summarizing,

“As you can see, Hades indeed has the capability to survive in the wild.”

“Though I know many of you dislike him, we are all part of the Death Guard. Our goal is to repel those Xenos Overlords who enslave our people.”

“The Death Guard does not seek fame; our existence is to liberate humanity.”

“And Hades—”

Typhon paused, looking at the circle of Death Guard captains listening silently.

“He can help us relieve the pressure from the Overlords. After all, one of our goals in the south is to unite other human villages, giving us more time and energy to talk with those village leaders who refuse to cooperate with us.”

Typhon calculated in his mind that some villages in the south, after submitting to the Xenos, received some technology as rewards, including poison prevention and weapon technology.

However, as time passed, those Death Guard who had previously complained also fell silent.

Hades approached the Death Guard leader Typhon, stating he was going to the nearby mountain to kill an Overlord.

“Are you insane?! Do you really think you can kill an Overlord alone? Do you really take that lucky win against Lazar as your strength? You’re not Mortarion! Hades! Don’t be stupid!!!”

Typhon shouted incredulously from across the room, for some reason, Hades insisted on maintaining a certain distance between them.

“I’m not insane. I’m sure I can do this. I’ve fully assessed the situation.”

Hades’ black eyes, hidden under his hood, stared intensely at Typhon.

Typhon’s heart trembled. He took a deep breath and continued,

“Hades, Hades, Hades, I… I know I haven’t liked you, yes, I haven’t liked you, but back then, it was the three of us who escaped together.”

“We are Death Guard, comrades in arms. Although we’ve had our clashes, we are still friends, aren’t we?”

Typhon looked back at Hades.

Hades said nothing, only nodding slightly, the hood once again obscuring his eyes.

“So, listen to me, don’t go, okay, don’t go.”

“You’re not Mortarion. On Barbarus, no one but him can do this.”

Hades stood up, his belongings jingling with the movement. He bowed slightly to Typhon.

“Thank you for your concern, Typhon. I’m also glad we are still friends.”

“But my decision is final.”

==================

After that, Typhon saw countless severed Xenos heads.

Damn, what a monster.
