The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order

Chapter 869 Back to Kronos

The following week, Cain spent his time going from one corner of the Deus Behemoth Empire to the other, taking care of anyone with connections to the underworld and those trying to establish a new Dark Faction.

Cain was merciless; even those whose crimes were not enough to warrant the death penalty were sent into the [Samsara Arsenal Module]ʼs First Layer and marked for sacrifices. He could not leave anyone alive who dared threaten the stability of the Deus Behemoth Empire while most of its forces moved into Atlas.

These were times of war, and Cain would rather kill millions of evil people than allow them to take advantage of the weak and fragile while the warriors were out.

After finishing with the underworld, Cain left Lord Kabuto and Lord Zanginis in the Solis Sacred Homes before flying to the Sea of End. Everything had already been handled in Hyperion, and he just needed to wait until all the armies were ready to march through the Bridge of Hope.

Moving hundreds of millions of soldiers was a logistical nightmare even with all the tools available to the Deus Behemoth Empire, but three weeks would be more than enough. In the meantime, Cain would remain in the home of the Atrox Immortus Empire.

It did not take long for Cain to reach the Sea of End, and his eyes narrowed as he gazed into the border of Kronos. He could perceive several powerhouses waiting in silence, hidden in the darkness. None of them dared to approach the Sea of End or the radiance of the Nine Void Suns, and it seemed that their goal was to stand guard.

”Not bad, but far from enough.”

Anyone else would have a hard time just perceiving the group of masters surveilling the periphery of Kronos, much less pass through them unnoticed. But Cain was a master assassin, and his domain over the Law of Space was powerful enough to move through layers of space that none of those Atroxs could perceive.

Once Cain entered the Atrox Immortus Empire, he did not go to Evernight. He had no interest in the empireʼs capital, as the Dark Emperor and Prime Minister Razputin would take care of that.

The duo had already communicated with him that everything was in order, and while they did not give him details, he was sure the Atrox Immortus Empireʼs army would march through the Bridge of Hope by the end of the month.

Cainʼs eyes narrowed as he found the location of the person he was looking for, and the next second, he teleported.

...

On the throne sat a man with a dark mask, a white robe, and a cold aura. He was currently inside a volcano, and his face showed a wave of exhaustion, as it was clear he had all sorts of problems.

”It has been a long time, Dark Mask.”

Suddenly, the manʼs eyes widened as he heard a voice behind him, shocked to realize that someone had managed to enter his headquarters and appear behind him. Immediately, wings and a tail of ice emerged from his figure as he turned around, ready to fight, but he froze as he saw the figure of a young man with a red mask.

”Leader!”

The man shouted with shock and awe. It had been years since he had seen the figure with the red mask. That was the same person who had given him a new identity and allowed him to obtain his revenge.

Cain stared at Dark Mask and softly nodded as he saw that the man had already become a Water Tribulation Master. It was shockingly fast progress, considering he had been a Wave King less than a decade ago.

All sorts of thoughts appeared in Dark Maskʼs mind as he stared at the young man, and he seemed to want to say something but could not find the words.

A sharp light appeared in Cainʼs eyes as he saw the turmoil in Dark Maskʼs mind, and the next second, his mask faded, showing his true human appearance.

”It seems that you have already heard the tales of the Scarlet King coming from the Deus Behemoth Empire and connected the dots.”

Dark Mask could not help but clench his fists as he stared at Cain. He had heard the tales and figured out everything. After all, the man was not stupid.

Even if Dark Mask was part of the underworld, his sense of duty and racial honor did not allow him to follow a member of the Godslayer Humankind. But if he refused, there was no way he could survive a fight with the young man who was supposed to be as strong as a Titan.

”There is no need to feel conflicted. I and your race are not enemies, at least not anymore.”

Cain could see the conflict through in Dark Maskʼs mind and chose to help the man, but his words only made more doubts appear in Atroxʼs eyes.

”Oh, it seems that you donʼt know it yet. I guess it is normal. Ishmael is being cautious since, unlike the Deus Behemoth Empire, they still have a rat infestation.”

Dark Mask frowned as he did not understand what was happening, but then Cain appeared before him and put a finger on his head.

The Leader of Dark Handʼs eyes widened as he saw massive darkness flooding Atlas, killing trillions of members of the Inferno Daemon Race. Then, an army began to clash with this darkness, a military power composed of Godslayer Humankind and Inferno Daemons!

Seeing both sides fighting together was beyond shocking, but what came next left him in utter awe as he saw the Ten Swords, the strongest warriors of the Atrox Immortus Empire, fighting against Cain and being overwhelmed.

”As you see, we are no longer enemies. Soon, the Atrox Immortus Empire forces will march through the Bridge of Hope into Atlas, and all of us will fight together.”

Cain took his finger from Dark Maskʼs forehead the next second and saw how the man stared at him for a few seconds before clasping his hand and performing a deep bow.

”Dark Mask humbly greets Leader!”
