Within the Grand Council Chamber of the Crimson Geo planet
The emergency council of the Crimson Geo planet finds themselves meeting for the first time in decades within the Grand Council Chamber. A large chamber filled with luxurious decorations all around with one grand table at the center of them all. And for a single reason.
To discuss the arrival of the Horsemen.
King Geograve finds himself feeling antsy as he along with the rest of the planet’s leaders all watch the live footage of Death stepping into their crimson diamond mine with War following after her. But the only thing they can think of while watching is the genuine terror they felt when the two Horsemen spread their energy across the entire planet. Overwhelming all of their planet’s defenses in an instant with nothing but sheer force.
No techniques. No skills.
Just an enormous amount of energy released at once.
After seeing that, there’s nothing King Geograve or the other leaders can do to stop them. They’re just too powerful.
This is the first time they’ve been unable to do anything about an invader, forcing them to just watch on the sidelines as the invaders take whatever they want.
King Geograve grits his teeth and clenches his fists as he sees the two entering the crimson diamond mine, no doubt to steal as many crimson diamonds as they can get. And he’s absolutely certain they will be doing the same thing with the other mines as well.
Until their mines all completely dry up.
That’s the only reason people ever come to their planet, after all.
Every other nation wants their crimson diamonds. And they’ll stop at nothing to get them.
It’s just greed, plain and simple.
But then something happens that leaves King Geograve and the other leaders feeling confused.
While Death does approach the crimson diamonds, all she does is walk up and admire them for a bit before ignoring them and walking away. In the direction of the danger area within the mines where the mana creatures dwell.
“What’s she doing?” “Is she trying to drive the mana creatures into a frenzy?” “She’ll probably go back for the crimson diamonds after messing with our mining operations.”
Just like that, all the leaders begin to fear the worst.
Which is why they’re left even more confused when they see Death waltzing into the danger area and blowing herself up along with the mana creatures. Then she proceeds further into the mines towards the next danger area where she blows herself and the mana creatures up again.
King Geograve stares blankly, wondering just what it is that he’s watching. And he’s not alone in that as the other leaders do the same.
For several hours, in fact. They just continue watching as Death slaughters the mana creatures in the crimson diamond mine, also known as their Hunter’s Spot, while War casually practices his swordplay somewhere in the caverns.
With neither of them so much as looking at the crimson diamonds.
“Were we mistaken…?”
King Geograve hears one of the leaders mutter, only for several other leaders in the room to immediately correct them. Pointing out that the Horsemen will, without a doubt, steal the crimson diamonds when they leave. And that Death is just performing her namesake right now and will go after the riches when she’s done.
So they continue waiting.
And waiting.
And waiting some more.
At some point, they find Death being swallowed whole by a large diamond golem mana creature before being stuck in its body for a few days until she finally makes her way out. But even that doesn’t faze them or her.
She just keeps killing the mana creatures along with her army of Death Spirits.
Some of the leaders even get calls from their respective people asking about where they are. But the leaders ignore them as they hyperfocus on the assumed thieves.
All the way until the two Horsemen finally begin to head towards the entrance again.
And right as the leaders are beginning to get angry at the thought of the Horsemen stealing from them, they find themselves stunned into silence that sight of the two Horsemen completely ignoring all the crimson diamonds they pass by on the way out.
While talking about finding a ramen place to eat at because of the incredible wine they have.
A recommendation by the Horseman of War himself.
And the silence continues in the Grand Council Chamber long after the footage cuts off upon the Horsemen’s exit from the Hunter’s Spot.

Thanks for the chapter. I imagined the whole scene in a chibi anime style for no reason which somehow made it even funnier.
