[Long chapter :) ]

Watching through a magic mirror, Cocytus observed the various tribes of the Lizard rallying against him in the inevitable battle to come to prove their worth or his. Seeing their bravery and unification for one battle, Cocytus grabbed a magic scroll and spoke through it.

"All units. Advance!" 

Next to him, a young humanoid girl adored in a maid outfit observed the mirror for the ensuing battle to come and rally any information of the battle to the Supreme Ones through Albedo. Coincidently, this was unknown to Cocytus as he himself did not relay any information about the battle until the end. 

Cocytus wanted to go out on the battlefield t prove his skills and worth for the Supreme Ones but his masters ordered him to observe and give orders to the army of undead in his command. 

Such a request seemed unjust to him but if the Supreme Ones deemed this as a test to prove his commanding skills then Cocytus would gladly take such a test to please himself and his masters in the near future.

"Entoma when will you be leaving? A pleiades maid such as yourself has no reason to be here." Cocytus turned to Entoma, one of the maids the Tomb relied on heavily for 'level 5' threats.

Entoma's mouth did not move but words came out of her responding to Cocytus' question. "I am merely an observer for the Supreme Ones that Albedo requested. Do not take my presence as a challenge Cock-face." 

A mist of frost spaced out of Cocytus' nose. "Hmph. Insect whore."

[On the other side]

On the eve of the battle, the various tribes of the Lizard banded together to fight this one common foe that would destroy their livelihoods if they did not rally under a single banner, a single cause. 

One of the tribes' chiefs from the Green Claw, Shasuryu Shasha stepped onto a platform to encourage his fellow lizardmen for the coming battle.

"Listen up, gathered Lizardmen from the 5 great tribes!" 

All lizardmen stopped their conversations and paid attention to one of the chiefs. 

"We know that our enemy is numerous and strong! However! There is nothing to be afraid of! Our lands now united under one cause have joined to repel back this great foe! Our ancestral spirits will protect, fight, and bless us to win against the foe we face!" 

The various lizardmen stood silent for a moment but that moment ended within seconds as their morale and pride raised through the roof. A loud yell of war cries echoed through the stronghold that sat on the other side of the wetlands. 

Shasuryu raised his sword as he yelled a war cry and moved and sword to the wetlands spouting the order: "Charge!" 

The timing of Shasuryu's encouraged words and war cry seemed perfect as on the other side of the wetlands, as a plethora of skeletons and undead emerged on the other side. The two opposing forces rushed at each other through the slippery and muddy land that separated them for many days. 

In their clash, their first fight with the undead army, many lizardmen had a terrain advantage as their bodies accumulate for the muddy ground of the wetlands. Many simply bashed their weapons against the skeletons and slashed the zombies but that proved to be very tiring as the undead outnumbered them 30:1. 

Through the many battles that both sides engaged in, the lizardmen clearly hold an advantage. The undead was not adept to the terrain of the wetlands as the zombies and skeletons moved slower from all the mud. 

[Cocytus' location]

Coctyus' seeing the exchange of the battle made him surprised, to say the least.
