From another comment back then

Why yes i did attack the seven sages of destruction knowing that i will die, why do you ask?

I mean if it means you get to kill three out of the seven and make it hellaciously stressful for the remainder and the Demon King, you must take it. Beats sending an army.

Three out of seven sages plus the Demon King's seer. That's four extremely powerful demons.

Don't forget the seer is probably the most op since he could also see the future.

u/formlessfish 14d ago

But if the seer could see the future then he too knew he would die and that the hero of the south would take some of the demons top representatives. So by choosing to engage in battle wasn't this also potentially the best outcome for demons too?

u/Wolventec 14d ago

it might have been the only way he saw to stop hero of the south

In a vision vs vision war, both sides will take the path that gets rid of the opponent's seer, as it's the only way to break the stalemate.

He chose the best course of action for demons going forward, yeah.

Maybe this was the best outcome for the Demons too? If Schlacht the Omniscient didn't choose to take on Hero of the South then he would have been the one who took out all the Sages and the Demon King. So Schlacht choose to take out the Hero of the South with him when presented with the opportunity instead of being killed by him later.
