Lord of the Truth

920  Sakaarʼs hidden kingdom -3

*That Demon King can see!!* Thought all of Sakaarʼs victims without exceptions.

But of course thatʼs not true, King Sakaar like the rest of the Demon doesnʼt have a way to see or hear and doesnʼt know whatʼs a soul sense is, but he has something else... He has a strong affinity for the Heavenly Path of blood!!

A high affinity for the Blood Path... Demon King Sakaar didnʼt know what this was at the time, and he only knew that he had an advantage that no other demon had, which is that you can sense any creature that has blood!

The giants use invisibility powder to make their scent blend in with their surroundings and thus become like ghosts to the demons... But Sakaar can feel the heat emanating from their blood, he can feel the blood running through their veins!

He can see their mouths move while they speak by following the dense blood vessels in the lips and tongue, so he can imitate a few words from the language of the people of Nihari like (die) and (haha) which he saw a lot and understood their meaning the hard way.

At this moment, a guard entered and began to communicate in his primitive way, ʼMy king... King Morin... and a companion... here... to meet.ʼ

ʼAllow them.ʼ Sakaar replied with a frown, his entire focus directed on watching the blood flowing from the severed head of the giant, this scene that he repeated often helped him develop his ability and also gave him some simple thrill~

ʼBrother Sakaar.ʼ Morin entered Sakaarʼs room and saluted respectfully, and behind him, another demon stood at the entrance of the tunnel and gave a full bow.

Sakaar was the only one to reach this level of power, but he did not use his power to force them to do something or to kill them, but rather told his fellow kings to call him brother, all he did was take the members of his nest and dug this cave, then spent most of his time inside it to protect it and supervise the new generation to make sure that the largest number of them reached adulthood.

A number of nests learned of what he did later and his success in defending his subjects and decided to join him, then two Demon kings joined after they despaired of trying to protect their followers, and indeed they found safety with Sakaar.

Under Sakarʼs measures, the two kings and the adults from that nest began to hunt giants who left their cities for any reason and not to approach any other conscious race, because according to him there is strict surveillance on all other races expect the giants.

Due to the small number of prey and Sakaarʼs orders to spread out and not focus on hunting in a specific area so as not to be discovered, the existence of that unique nest became exposed to the other demons.

After the news leaked out more and more Demons wanted to join Sakaar, but Sakaar flatly refused, saying that if a nest this big was noticed, the giants would start a war on them, a war he was not ready for.

Despite his refusal, Sakaarʼs strength, the number of his followers, and the presence of two other kings under him made him the head of the demons in the eastern region without a doubt!

ʼWhy did you come? What if someone was following you?ʼ Sakaar didnʼt turn around, but the smells he was emitting were a bit pungent indicating his anger.

ʼNo need to worry, no one followed me.ʼ Moren laughed and then walked over to stand next to Sakaar

ʼWhere did you get this confidence from?ʼ Sakaar looked even angrier, ʼDo you still not believe what Iʼm saying about what the giants are doing?!ʼ

Sakaar had already announced his discovery, that the giants had a way to prevent their scent from being detected and that they were the ones who entered the nests and killed their cubs, but no one believed him.

The nose of the weakest of demons could smell a mouse from a hundred meters away, so what about the strong ones? How could the demon kings believe such news? They just thought Sakaar had a good way of hiding from the ghosts and he didnʼt want to tell them about it, thatʼs all.

ʼI believe you now, brother, I believe you completely.ʼ Moren sighed, then pointed in front of him, ʼ...I smell the blood of giants, but I donʼt smell a giant, is this one of them?ʼ

ʼ...ʼ Sakaar stared at the face of the unexpected visitor for a few seconds trying to understand his riddles, in the end, he looked back in front of him, ʼYes, I caught him a little while ago... after he managed to kill 7 cubs.ʼ

ʼNo need to be sad, this incident will never happen to you again, you will catch them before they enter the cave, I promise you that!ʼ Moren patted his shoulder

ʼAlright, enough with the riddles, whatʼs happening with you?” Sakaar turned to Moren and clenched his fist, indicating how serious he was

Morin smiled, showing a mouth full of fangs, then used the thoughts conveying technique: (”As you with brother, but let me add one more riddle.”)

Sakaar jumped up from his seat when he heard a voice inside his mind, ʼWhat magic is this?!ʼ

(”A lot has happened, brother…”) Morin sent again, then pointed to the young demon behind him, (”This guy stumbled upon a human by chance when he was in captive, that human communicated with him in this way and helped him escape, then told him the same thing you told us, that the giants have a kind of powder-like dust that helps them disappear and that they are responsible for killing the cubs.”)

ʼ…?ʼ A mixture of disturbed smells emanated from Sakaar, then he looked at the demon standing at the entrance, that information was very surprising!

”Hail to the king, this young one got the name ~Amon~ from the lord himself.”) Amon bowed again, it was an honor for her to meet the great Sakaar.

ʼLord?ʼ Sakaar repeated, this title is the highest a demon can say, several of Sakaarʼs followers tried to give him the title of Lord but he refused saying that he is no oneʼs Lord for he cannot protect them completely.

(”Brother Sakaar, that human gave us this technique to communicate easily, and taught us something called soul sense that we can detect giants through, and gave us a technique that gives us the ability to something strange called hearing, and he is currently teaching us inner energy cultivation system and helping us draw the same tattoos that giants are proud of, itʼs like a new world is opening up for us.”) Moren continued, (”After saying all this, he is my Lord too and my life is his forever, and according to his orders I move around to spread these techniques to everyone who swears allegiance to him.”)

ʼSwear allegiance to do what? I wonʼt be anyoneʼs dog.ʼ Sakaar didnʼt look too impressed by those words, yet his hearts still beat strongly from Morenʼs words.

Moren showed a confident expression, (”He is a great man whom the other humans call the Heaven Chosen. He is currently trying to establish a Sect that will unite all the inferior races, including us Demons. The Sectʼs goal will be to stand up against the giants and take control of the eastern region.”)

ʼ.....ʼ Sakar lowered his head and looked at the ground for a moment, then took two steps towards the wall and pulled out the thigh bone planted in the chest of the giantʼs corpse, causing him to fall to the ground *Paa*

Then he turned back to face Morin and Amon, ʼIf what you said is true then he is my Lord too. If he kept that goal, I shall serve him for an eternity.ʼ

”We donʼt have much time to waste here, The men need to keep their position while I need to keep an eye on the overall situation, whatʼs this gathering for?” Sitting on a throne-like seat, Sakaar didnʼt look too happy.

In front of him, Charles replied expressionlessly, ”We will wait until the rest of your generals and top officers arrive, Everyone needs to listen to this.”
