Lord of the Truth

768  The Truthful omen

”Wait, Dad!!” Zara quickly moved forward, hugging her adoptive fatherʼs arm and stamping her feet on the ground making to deep holes, ”Isnʼt everything going according to plan? Why are you so nervous?”

”I donʼt know! I donʼt know!! But I feel like I need to get in there and end this fight right now!” Even though Zara had reached the level of an Intermediate Emperor and held on to him with all her might, he somehow managed to take a few more steps.

”Just look there, it is a large-scale battle involving hundreds of thousands. What will you do if you intervene? How many people will you kill with your normal strength? Or perhaps you plan to exhaust yourself and fall unconscious again, as happened in the Tree Fatherʼs Warlords incident?! There is not a single person in the battle that is worth your time, Big Brother Caesar will take care of them.” Zara let go of her fatherʼs arm and hugged him from behind more tightly, ”...Please calm down. What happened to you two months ago? Iʼve never seen you this nervous before. Are you okay, Dad?”

Only when he heard a slight cry in Zaraʼs voice did Robin stop moving forward and hit the ground with his foot twice, ”DAMMIT! DAMMIT!!” Then ge managed to free himself from Zaraʼs arms somehow and found a relatively large rock to sit on, pressing on his chest with his left hand.

”Dad, whatʼs wrong with you? Every time I set eyes on you for the past two months, I see you clutching your chest. Is it that bad feeling again?” Zara walked over and knelt in front of Robin, placing her hands on his knees,as she quietly sent out a small stream of fourth-stage life energy, checking his body for any damage.

”You wonʼt find anything, Iʼve checked myself repeatedly...” Robin pressed harder on his chest, ”Itʼs just a *feeling* with no physical signs but itʼs tearing through my chest. I feel like thereʼs a family of scorpions living in my chest and constantly stinging me from the inside trying to break out.”

”Maybe itʼs a psychological state because of excessive stress? Youʼre always searching for something or facing something, you should rest more..” Zara smiled with difficulty, but it was also very little.

”No, I canʼt rest until I know whatʼs happening and where itʼs happening. I ignored this feeling once and I wonʼt do it again.” Robin stood up angrily and looked towards the horizon, squeezing his hands

This feeling came to him twice in varying grades before... The first time was when Caesar went to the Eight Kingdoms Tournament and there was a plot to kill him, but fortunately, he responded to that feeling and sent Peon and Theo behind him with strong talismans, so they saved him. But the aftermath of that small plot was a war against the Kingdom of Dolivar, which later developed into a war against three kingdoms, and then the summoning of the Flame Empire, which ended with the destruction of Jura City.

The second time was on the planet Nihari, but at that time he had just emerged from his torture at the hands of the Fire Salamander Organization and he thought that this feeling came from depression, or simply that if anything happened, it would happen On Planet Nihari, which he already hate, so he ignored it... Right after, Jura City was burned, his Wife was killed, and his son was tortured for decades. The aftermath was massacres on four planets and the establishment of the True Beginning Empire.

Was it a coincidence both times? In a previous conversation with the All-Seeing God, he told him that there are some Truth users who have their own special abilities and that Robinʼs ability to sense calamities before they happen may be his own special ability.

*The Truthful omen* This is the name Robin gave to this strange ability.

...And for two months he has been experiencing it for the third time, and for some reason, that feeling is more intense this time.

Zara frowned helplessly, not knowing what to say... She urged her adoptive father to tell her about what was bothering him during the previous two months until he actually told her about the previous two times. She understands what he is saying, but she is simply unable to understand what this means to him, It is just a feeling in the end, right?

”Father, Is ending the battle quickly will bring you some peace of mind? Let me give the order to the Warlords to intervene then.” Zara pointed behind her towards the 15 Battalions waiting behind the energy walls, ”We can also summon the Warlord troops that surround the central area, that way we will conclude this battle within minutes!”

”NO!” Robin shouted quickly, ”The Warlord Array is too consuming even after the modification, I donʼt want to exhaust their strength now and then when the disaster happens, we lose our most powerful weapon! just leave them on standby...”

Zara thought for a moment, ”...Should I summon the Demons then? They would be happy to find all this food crammed into one place...”

Robin merely furrowed his eyebrows slightly and sent a quick glance towards Zara.

She raised both her hands in surrender, ”Okay, okay, let them search for their own food then, but I assure you that Amon is not happy about this hehe.”

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

At the same time-- Somewhere on the edges of the central region--

A few days ago, this area was quiet. It contained a small, empty town surrounded by a few abandoned mines containing some pearls and high-level energy stones.

Just two days ago, a spaceship found this area and docked there. During the previous two days, this deserted place turned into something resembling a festival. More than three thousand soldiers from the Great Serpent Empire landed here and began searching the place happily amidst crazy laughter after they were able to collect more than a thousand Pearls and a few tens of thousand high-level energy stones!

But now...

”Ahh!! Ahhh!!”

”What are you? What the hell are you?!” Arrghgh!!!”

Hell, nothing else can be said about the battle currently taking place.

No, itʼs not a battle. The massacre between the white and crimson creatures was equal in numbers, but certainly not equal in strength...

Of the 3,000 soldiers who were happily spending their time an hour ago, half of them are being eaten alive at this moment, and the other half have been dismembered and arrested.

”Haachu,” One of the demons on the site sneezed, ”Which bastard talking about me?”

He was huge in stature, at least 3 meters tall, His long white hair cascaded down his back, his dark crimson color was terrifying, and his long horns looked as if they were ready to pierce the sky, but at least his facial features were clearly more handsome compared to the likes of Moren and most of the other demons, and his aura certainly would not lose to the likes of Alexander or Victoria!

”Brother Amon, have the superstitions of Juraʼs humans affected your mind? We only hunt, eat, and f*ck, haha.” Another Demon Emperor laughed hard, taking a bite from a leg that looked like a humanʼs leg but was milk-white in color and full of black lines, ”Hurry and choose a fat one for yourself, if you are too late Iʼm afraid you wonʼt find even the bones.”

”Hmm... letʼs keep moving forward.”
