The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order

Chapter 622: Earth Fiend

A teleportation formation glowed inside the underground chamber. The next instant, five Scarlet Inquisitors appeared, and with them were the upper echelon of Earth Fall in chains and with their energy and bodies sealed.

Unlike the experience of Gigant, Amalia, Kanon, and Ekatory, the five Scarlet Inquisitors did not arrive at a gore scene with skeletons and bubbles of blood upon reaching the underground chamber. They only saw a handsome man with a scarlet robe floating in the air amidst spatial storms.

Of the five Scarlet Inquisitors, the only one that followed the Essence Evolution Path of Power was the woman with the white bat feature. Her name was Cindra, and a sense of utter awe and shock appeared in her eyes as she focused on the spatial storm and saw that their origin came from the young manʼs body.

ʼAmazing! His mastery over the Law of Space must be near the Extreme Law Fragmentation!ʼ

The Law Fragmentation Realm was nothing impressive for a Titan that followed the Inner Universe Divine System, but that referred to the most common Laws. Reaching the Extreme Law Fragmentation was beyond amazing when it came to supreme cosmic powers like the Law of Space and the Law of Time.

The awe in her eyes only increased once the Scarlet Inquisitor noticed that Cain was still a Wave King.

Cain noticed the overwhelming shock and awe in the eyes of the Scarlet Inquisitor, but he did not show much interest; instead, he smiled at the entire group of five Titans.

”You have done an excellent job capturing the upper echelon of Earth Fall alive, Inquisitors Lork, Kirin, Kern, Zamira, and Cindra. This success will greatly boost our ultimate goal of setting the underworld ablaze, leaving nothing but dust and ashes. You will be greatly rewarded once our mission is completed.”

”We serve the Scarlet King!”

Inquisitors Lork, Kirin, Kern, Zamira, and Cindra bowed, and while they did not utter another word, smiles full of thrill and delight appeared on their faces. The Scarlet King had risen to the point of becoming a living legend, and obtaining his praise was something even Titans could brag about.

Not to mention, they were sure the reward this one would grant them would allow their powers to rise to higher levels.

Cain nodded to the five Scarlet Inquisitors and indicated for them to straighten before turning his eyes to the four prisoners in front of him. Those four were the upper echelon of Earth Fall, three of which went by the names Earth Ghost, Earth Ghoul, and Earth Specter.

A small smile appeared on Cainʼs face, and he almost laughed as he realized their names were similar to those of his own Dark Faction in the Kronos Continent. Still, immediately, sharpness returned to his eyes as he focused on the most important one of the prisoners.

Cain calmly walked to the prisoner who was suppressed by two Titans, Zamira and Cindra. It was an old woman with long white hair and the features of a fox with white and black fur. Despite her fragile appearance, she was actually the most dangerous of all, as this old woman was none other than Earth Fiend, the leader of Earth Fall.

As Cain raised the head of the old woman and looked into her eyes, he could not help but feel a sense of respect as there was no fear in her. Unlike the Ocean Lord of Ocean Wrath, who begged for mercy until the last minute, Earth Fiend showed only peace and serenity.

”Duke Ormina, the Saintess of Virtue and Protector of the Frail.”

When hearing the true names of Earth Fiend for the first time, sharp expressions appeared in the eyes of the Scarlet Inquisitors. Duke Ormina was the Sector Duke of the Mormon Sector, and she was renowned for her charitable nature, always striving to grant ordinary people a safe place and raising promising youths who came from humble backgrounds.

Who would imagine that one of the Sector Dukes, famous for their virtue and charity, was actually one of the empireʼs greatest and most heinous monsters?

Some powerhouses and important figures in the empire found it hard to accept, but the fame of the Scarlet King was so immense by this point that no one doubted his words after he shared the evidence against the woman.

”Do what you have to do, boy. If you are expecting me to beg, then you are sorely mistaken. I lived my life according to my rules, and I am ready to face the reaper. If itʼs my time to soar into the void of darkness, then so be it.”

Words were easy to utter, but Cain could see that the old woman meant them. She was not afraid and was ready to face anything.

”I will not be able to break your will, will I?”

If Cain wanted to use Gluttonyʼs Eye on a Titan, he first needed to break their mind and spirit, or else it would be impossible to win the clash of wills, but he could see in the eyes of the old woman that would not happen.

”You are welcome to try.”

There was no fear nor cockiness in the old womanʼs eyes. She was not trying to act superior in her last moment of life and was honestly free of fear and doubt.

Cain stared at the old woman for a moment before silently nodding, accepting no amount of pain or psychological torture would break her spirit.

”Your fate is death; there is nothing that will change that. However, death can be painful and slow, or it can be fast and painless. Share your knowledge of the underworld with me, and I will end it in one move.”

Ormina was about to shake her head when she saw a devious smile on Cainʼs face.

”Donʼt think of it as helping me or even the Deus Behemoth Empire. I am sure you would want some company wherever you are going.”
