Lord of the Truth

Chapter 808: Bad news comes in groups

”Save Jura? Whatʼs wrong with Jura?” Robin was mildly surprised, but he quickly remembered something, ”Is this about the negative energy accumulated in the city? But I canʼt do anything about it, It became a graveyard after all. What does he want me to do about it?”

”I donʼt mean Jura City, Planet Jura itself is about to be destroyed!!” Shadow Sword shouted forcefully

*Step* *Step* Robin approached the Shadow Sword in wonder and grabbed his collar, Then he asked in a low voice, looking directly into his eyes, ”Do you know what you are saying, oh? Who in Jura dares to challenge my authority?... Is it those rebellious rats who call themselves The People? Does Richard need my help against a bunch of hooligans?!”

The Shadow Sword opened his eyes and quickly replied, ”Why not?! Please donʼt underestimate them, they had captured 10% of the Ancestral Continent just before I came here, and were at war against the rest of the continent and even against other continents! According to our estimations, The number of rebels exceeded 60 million. They are frantic and destroy everything that stands in their way, They burned all the cities and villages that refused to submit to their rule and secede from the Empire!”

”TRASH!!” Robinʼs scream shook the room, ”You allowed an internal rebel organization to expand until it reached the point of directly challenging my authority? What is the point of feeding you then? It seems that the Shadow Swords organization is no longer of any use, I will kill you all and disband it to save my resources!”

He then quickly thought of something and added angrily, ”Hmph, and why would Richard want my help against scoundrels who do not have a single Martial Emperor on their side? And what if they are tens of millions? He has killed a similar number of giants with his own hands, they should be a piece of cake for him! Or does the Crown Prince want to throw everything on his old fatherʼs shoulders? He wants to tell me that my regime is a failure?!”

60 million of them? So the reports that were coming to him about killing a thousand and hunting down ten leaders and these trivialities were just scratches against the real organization? They were keeping him in the dark?! In this case, he wouldnʼt be surprised if the Shadow Swords Organization itself has fallen!

”NO!!” The Shadow Sword realized that he fucked up, so he spoke quickly to save what could be saved, ”We were actually completely suppressing them, and it was impossible for them to show themselves even after a thousand years. Most of the 60 million joined recently after that calamity hit. Some of them heard about the rebellion movement after they started the attack and joined them, while most of them just wanted to survive and chose the side they thought would win. I also saw with my own eyes the Crown Prince actually killing them, he is indeed capable of killing them all with his godly power, But the real problem is that calamity that started it all!!”

”..And what calamity is this?” A small but feral smile appeared on Robinʼs face

”...It all started when warships descended from the sky a few days ago carrying hundreds of Martial Emperors and hundreds of thousands of Law-wielding soldiers, all of them wearing silver armor and all of them looking like a mixture between reptiles and humans. At their heads are two people who claim to be themselves to be Marshals, they destroyed all the space portals as soon as they appeared, then they spread out and attacked the entire planet like locusts, and the rebels helped them in the attack. Currently, the entire planet is being smashed while the Imperial Capital is under severe siege!”

*Ba-Dum* Robinʼs heart gave a hard beat and then stopped for a moment, but he did not take his eyes off the shadow sword, even his slightly smiling expression was still stuck on it as if time had frozen. Only after about a minute did Robinʼs smile grow a little, ”Letʼs speak truthfully for a bit here, okay? Is this a prank on Richardʼs part? If so, just tell me and I wonʼt turn a blind eye and-- Pfft!”

Before Robin could complete his words, he clutched his chest and spat out blood.

”Your Excellency!!” Shadow Sword was shocked. He didnʼt know what to do so he quickly removed the Life Talisman from himself and placed them on Robin, ”Your Excellency, Your Excellency, do you hear me? Your Excellency!!”

”Urgh...” Robin dug the five fingers into his chest out of intense pain. At this moment, he felt that the thousands of insects that had been buzzing in his chest over the past few months wanted to destroy him from the inside and get out!

”Your Excellency!!” Shadow Sword held his head with both hands.

In his view, Robin was an unshakable entity, a creature like no other, a person who, if the sky fell above him, would raise it with one hand, and that person was writhing in pain in front of him!! ”Please, someone help us!!” Shadow Sword looked around and shouted, but found no response, and the problem is that he does not have the soul imprint of anyone in Nihari because this is not his area!

”...Haa! Haa!!” Suddenly Robin stopped screaming out of pain, his hands also stopped digging into his chest and he began to take rapid breaths

”Your Excellency, do you hear me now?!”

”Haa.. Haa.. Yeah, Iʼm fine.. Iʼm fine..” Robin helped himself to stand again, then began looking at his hands and his chest.

In fact, or he was actually fine, much better than before... The bad feeling from the Truthful Omen had almost ceased!

Robin did not stay on his feet for long. He quickly found a stone and sat on it weakly, placing his head in his hands. ”So itʼs like this... so itʼs like this... This is why the bad feeling never left me no matter how much I tried to take new measures. I was striving for perfection in the East while I was being beaten in the West. Here I am besieging my enemies while my enemies are besieging my family.. so itʼs like this...”

”Your Excellency, you must return immediately before it is too late, Jura City Space Portal is still intact!!” Shadow Sword quickly shouted

While his features were still in stupefaction, Robin looked towards the North, ”No wonder the three marshals are acting so coldly and not taking into account the presence of an ambush, no wonder... As soon as they announce the truth about the occupation of planet Jura after the battle starts, the morale of the main body of the army will collapse, no, my own morale and Will to fight will collapse. That would have been an absolute knockout blow!”

Even Shadow Sword was astonished. He expected Robin to become angry and rush towards the space portal madly, but he was still sitting there talking to himself!

”But how...? How did they get to Planet Jura? Was I betrayed? But by who?” Jabbaʼs image appeared before his eyes, but he quickly shook his head and continued speaking in a low voice, ”No, all those who have the coordinates to Jura are trustworthy people or have received an Intense Soul Oath...”

Robin looked down for a few seconds until he seemed to remember something and shouted, ”Is it possible that it is the southern space portal? Is that why they targeted it in such a suicidal way?! But how can they know the coordinates to Jura from the destroyed space portal? ... No, no, there is definitely another explanation, if they knew it from the southern space portal, this means that they knew about Greenland and Orphan Blood as well. If I were in their place, I would attack all the planets at the same time and destroy all the space portals. This will not only prevent reinforcements from arriving to us, but it will cut off any escape route, and it will be overwhelming and irreversible news if they use it on the battlefield... but fortunately for me, this did not happen. If they had touched Planet Greenland, that brat would have told me.”

From this point of view, Robin was completely reassured. In order to complete ownership of Planet Greenland, he created a permanent soul connection between himself and Evergreen, a fragment of which now resides in his Soul Domain all the time! If anything had happened there, she would have told him immediately.

”Um, about that...” At this moment Robin heard a familiar voice coming from his Soul Domain, ”Iʼve been under attack for 5 days, an eighth of my population has been killed and almost a quarter of the planetʼs villages and cities have been leveled to the ground, oh, and the Imperial Cities you were building recently built are all destroyed too, hehe... Owner... Are

you okay?”
