Lord of the Truth

Chapter 309 The Blood Drenched City

*Bam Bam Bam Bam*

The sound of heavy footsteps began to echo inside the warehouse.

The might of the heavy footsteps and the number of feet causing it made all the saints and sages around the warehouse look at each other in astonishment

Since when did this relatively small metal warehouse contain all these people? Who were they exactly, and how did they get there?!

”Be prepared, they must be of the fleeing troops, donʼt let anyone escape this time!” The high-leveled Sage raised his hand and announced

”YES!!” A shout resounded from the rest of the Sages and Saints, and they all began to emerge from their hiding places and take a position of readiness.

This was not the first time they had fought the fleeing forces, it will be a tough fight no matter how many are there...

​ *Bam Bam Bam Bam*

The steps sounds got very close to the gate and the Saints and Elders of the Flame Empire started to light fire between their palms, ready to attack at any moment..!!

But... all of it was suddenly extinguished.

What came out of the warehouse werenʼt the Burtonsʼ fleeing troops, they werenʼt even humans... but crimson-colored creatures with long horns and long white hair.

”No….” The high-ranking Saint took a step back when he sensed the auras of the 20 Demons he saw, all of them have the strengths of a sage…

”Donʼt panic, itʼs obvious that they are just monsters without brains, coordinating our attacks well, we can... can...??!” The words got stuck in the throat of the high-ranking sage when he saw another row of 20 demons coming out, then another.. then another...

Very soon 220 Demons walked out of the metal warehouseʼs gate, all of them at Sagehood!

Robin looked back at Amon who had his two hands and teeth drenched in blood, standing at the very front of the demons, then nodded at him.

These are the kings and seniors of the demons in the lands of each tribe in the eastern region of Nihari, and even some of the demons who have recently breakthrough into Sagehood thanks to the abundance of high-level food that the continuous wars in the past twenty years provided them  -like Amon-

After the sect finishes annexing or destroying a tribe, The Demon King Moren sets out to meet the demon King of that land and gives him techniques in exchange for loyalty to their god, Robin Burton

Thatʼs right, the Demon race didnʼt owe allegiance to the sect like the rest of the Giant tribes, but to Robin alone!

Even Robin didnʼt know about this until Moren inadvertently mentioned it to him recently, but by then it was too late to adjust, as Moren had already annexed most of the Demon Kings of the Eastern Region.

Currently, all the demon kings in the eastern region are no longer *kings*, but are representatives to rule their regions under the name of Robin Burton, and none of them has any privilege over another demon of the same level...

the only one whom even the previous kings consider to be higher than them and they respect with all their hearts except Robin is none other than Amon

He is the first demon to acquire the Unique skills that changed their lives and he is their direct link with Robin, it can be said that he is the one who brought this blessing to all their race

One way or another... Amon became the newly uncrowned King of Demons even though he was still as powerful as a low-level sage.

So during the previous two weeks, when Robin announced that he would enter a war in his mother world, Amon was the first to volunteer, and even told Robin to leave the task entirely to the Demons...

Since there was no strong competition from the rest of the chiefs of the tribes and even the sect to send battalions with him, Robin agreed and handed the whole matter over to Amon.

Looking behind him now, it seems that Amon is still yet to disappoint him.

*SWOOOOSH*

*SWOOSH... SWOOSH... SWOOSH!!!*

Without warning, without saying a single word... the Saints and Sages of the Flame Empire all began to fly one after the other in different directions!

A slight smile appeared on Robinʼs lips upon seeing this, and then spoke in a low voice, ”Besiege the city and then kill off everyone.”

”YES,” Amon replied verbally in a thick voice with a full bow...

Since the Demons were able to clearly hear the Nihari language by using the technique that Robin made, they began to try to imitate the sounds to speak in an audible voice

And finally, after millions of years of evolution, some of the Demons started saying stuff other than roaring and snarling, they finally began to become an intelligent race in word and deed...

...After Amon finished his deep bow, he flew towards the Jura city wall, and all the Demons behind him did the same.

Other than reaching the level of a dragon in body strength, all of them had reached the level of a Saint in their inner energy cultivation as well!!

And because they were used to flying in tens of times higher gravity, in the blink of an eye they were able to bypass the Elders of the Flame Empire and reach the city walls before them.

And only a few seconds later, screams began to echo the whole city...

”No, NO NO NOOO, LEAVE ME ALONE YOU DEVIL!!”

”AAAAHHHHHHHH!!!”

----------------------

”I know you are angry but I think you should have waited before giving that order, maybe one of your old followers or family members is still inside the city somewhere,” Jabba spoke as he saw the horrors taking place over Jura City

Even though he has seen many massacres before he still hasnʼt gotten used to how the Demons do their business, it is just too... bloody!

”Oh, there are, quite a few of them at that, their children and grandchildren and grand-grandchildren.. a few hundreds I guess,” Robin spoke coldly, placing his hands behind his back

”Then you are..?” Jabba held his eyebrows high, he didnʼt understand what Robin was indicating

Jabba couldnʼt finish his sentence before he heard a piercing sound shouting at him, ”Robin! Robin, it is really you, you finally came back!! Itʼs me your uncle, I have a lot to tell you about what happened in your absence and those traitors that fled the city when we needed them most, but first, get that creature off me!!”

Quickly the source of the sound appeared in front of them... a Demon clutching the neck of an old saint in his pajamas, the old man only cried out loud and waved at Robin, and the demon kept looking at Robin as if he was waiting for an order from him.

”DID YOU NOT HEAR MY ORDER THE FIRST TIME?” Robin shouted at the demon with an apparent killing intent

Without a second delay, the demon opened its mouth and took a bite out of the old saintʼs face.

As for Robin, he looked at Jabba with a blank face, ”I have no followers nor a family here... not anymore.”
