Demon Slaying System - Chapter 123
Warlords palace, Head quarters.
The executives from house Milton had reached warlords palace by now.
Contrary to their expectations, the leader of warlords palace was not present in person to receive them.
He had to send his assistant ( A yellow robed pretty lady ) for receiving them.
Daniel, a senior executive from house Milton felt this an insult to him.
The warlords palace is a tiny existence before them, even the owners of a dukedom dare not disrespect him easily, much less a warlord palace that was not comparable to them in the least.
Whoosh!
” What’s happe… Where’s your palace leader? ”
Looking at the situation of warlords palace, which seemed tense, Daniel initially wanted to ask her what’s happening around.
But for an unknown reason he got pissed and started threatening her.
” Cough! Cough! Special guess from Milton’s… Right now we are preparing for… ! ”
The assistant in yellow robes wasn’t able to exclaim her words well, as Daniel seemed to pressure her with his aura.
” He sure has guts to disrespect me! ” Daniel continued.
Grabbing the shoulder of him in hurry, Rey bellowed ” Stop! Let her finish her words! You will kill her at this rate! ”
” Cough! Cough! Thanks my lady! ” Taking few deep breaths, she continued stating.
” Our palace’s western branch has sent multiple number of distress calls this morning!
Seems like a calamity had occurred over there, most likely a foreign power infiltrated our branch! ”
” So… our palace is readying for a large scale battle against that unknown enemy! ”
” Daniel! We should hurry! Our young master is still in that western branch… can’t waste time! ”
Rey bellowed before climbing back over her dragon mount, readying it for a take off.
” Young master! ”
The assistant who managed to maintain her cool till now, fell down in fright after hearing that piece of shocking information.
Right now the western warlords palace is chaotic, multiple mansions were attacked simultaneously by Fatale’s dead army.
Though the status of enemy was not clearly known to them, half the mansions of western division had fallen prey to that enemy.
Leaving behind few intact ones which were about to be drawn shortly into this chaos.
Had the young master ( Mark ) they been searching for found dead, the whole of the warlords palace would have to bear the wrath of Milton’s.
Which even the royal family dare not provoke lightly.
” Guests from Milton! Right now, we people from warlords palace are preparing to wage war against that foreign power.
Since both our destinations are the same, how about travelling with us? We’ll escort you faster! ”
Listening to her words the temper of Daniel hit sky high again, and he once again started to pressure her unintendedly.
” The mounts of our flying dragon unit are ten times better than your weaker species! ”
Daniel had an expression of mockery, but his eyes were still glaring angrily at her.
” Travelling with you would only drag us behind and by the time we reach that place, wouldn’t it be too late to regret.
Would your onwer Behei be able to bear that responsibility by then? ”
To cast aside any confusion from occurring, Behei is the owner of dukedom Regal, and the warlords palace is just a subsidiary power of them, who are relying on that existence to survive.
Daniel though was a short tempered one, he wasn’t dumb enough to not understand the thing this yellow robed assistant was trying to do earlier.
To be frank, a single executive from their unit was capable of flattening the thing called warlords palace.
While a whole unit of them were capable enough to wipe the whole of this dukedom itself.
With the addition of this special unit, these warlords palace would get an additional source of insurance while wagging war against that unknown enemy.
” My intentions are not what you’re imagining it to be? ”
She had to be a little bold with her words, or else the guests before her would not take her contents seriously.
” I just wanted to inform you that we people from warlords palace have an ancient teleportation array with us! ”
She raised her chin proudly while disclosing the information about that ancient array.
” Teleportation array! ” Rey muttered out lightly.
Any thing that was related to space was not an ordinary stuff in this world.
Combined with a prefix of ancient, it picked the interest of Rey.
” Yes, a teleportation array!
It would reduce our travel time tremendously, and we would like to borrow your power to fight that enemy.
I hope Its not a bad deal to consider? ” The yellow robed assistant tried negotiating with the executives from Milton’s.
” How dare! ”
” Trying to negotiate with us, even your organization owner wouldn’t have that guts to begin with! ”
Daniel got pissed again, if not for Rey to show interest in ancient array, he wouldn’t have controlled his anger to begin with.
From the time he came to this warlords palace, this assistant was not giving enough face to him.
Now that she tried negotiating with him as equals, his temper hit the red line and he started to release thick spirit aura from his body with murderous glare.
” Daniel! Shut up for a moment! ”
Rey wouldn’t want to waste further time in the thing called prestige, dignity or such, right now her concern was to save mark.
” Representative from warlords palace, if there such a device, we people from Milton would like to borrow that thing.
And dealing with that enemy, you needn’t worry about that part. ”
She gave a smirk, before pointing her fingers to the red robed executives and exclaimed.
” These juniors of us are Fifth stage in saint realm and senior executives like Daniel and myself are cultivators at its seventh stage.
for visiting.
With us around do you still have a need to worry about that enemy?
Now hurry up and take us faster to that western branch of yours, each seconds matters here! ”
” Saint realm… Fifth… Seventh! ” The yellow robed assistant almost fainted in fright after knowing their true strength.
” Yes… but before that do you people have enough mana stones to activate it? ”
She raises her question, only to become bafalled, looking at the mountain loads of mana crystals that heaped before her from Rey’s storage ring.
” Is this enough? ” Rey questioned her.
” Yes yes! ” She exclaimed before moving to the center of palace in hurry.
Few minutes prior to the wolf tribe invasion.
” Glia! You knew that I am going to upgrade
my realm, why bother disturbing me with the name of Pope? ”
Cardinal rule questioned her angrily.
Thin body with a long black beard, a plain face with a trimmed hair and a set of silvery armor covering his plain looking black robes.
This is what a person could describe him at first glance.
But after deeper examination, a sense of dominance could be felt around him, a faint tinge of holy aura was radiating out his body, which made him look special.
He was the youngest cardinal in history of church and by right have the privilege to only answer the calls of Pope.
Gila though was an Arch Bishop, a woman of high status.
She has to be respectful to a cardinal, much less deceive him with the name of Pope which was considered a blasphemy.
But looking at their past, Glia had decieved him multiple times, using the name of Pope, just to talk with him, some times to even pass over boredom considering her carefree character.
Considering their relation which was special. Rule never bothered complaining this thing to Pope, and let her be.
But right now when he was at a crucial step, she calls him again, why won’t be become angry thinking of the things she done to him in the past?
” Rule! It’s been five years since there’s a proper conversation between us… ”
” If there’s nothing else, I’ll be going back to my room! ” He turned back with an angry face, before moving towards his room.
Before she could even complete her words, he got angry and left the place in haste.
” Rule! ”
Stops!
All of a sudden, cardinal rule stopped his movements.
A pleasant voice of youth was heard from behind.
Put!
Without a second delay cardinal turned back his body, and kneeled on his one leg, before exclaiming with his head bent.
” This cardinal named rule presents himself before the almighty! ”
” Haha! You’re still the same! ”
The youth laughed out looking at the stature of rule that seemed funny.
Right next to Glia, a youth who sized half her body, till her waist line popped out all of a sudden.
” Putting aside the trivial stuff, this old man had set an important assessment for you! ”
The youth exclaimed out straight forwardly.
” Old man! haha, with the skin of an pretty looking boy, who would actually believe him to be an old monster of ancestral generation? ”
Cela who was kowtowing from one side had laughed internally.
” An assessment! ”
Rule lifted his head in excitement after hearing that part of information.
Though he was extremely religious, he became greedy after hearing that the Pope was willing to give an assessment to him.
Not even a single assessment handed over by pope was ordinary, but each of the rewards handed over at the end was tremendous.
He was sure that within a few periods of months, his realm would be upgraded.
And by the time he finished completing his assessment, his rewards might be rich and who knows he’ll probably hit the next major realm after using it?
” Haha! Too greedy!
Looking at your face, I can imagine what all wild though been going through your brains.
Well what ever it’s been, had you ever heard a word called slayer? ”
Pope questioned him with a smiling face.
” Yes, probably in the hidden doctrines of our god Merclaive. ”
Going by the doctrine, He referred himself a slayer, to the residents of our world at his first appearance! ”
Rule answered him honestly.
” Then do you know, by whom did the church of ours was created? ” He questioned again.
” By the seven inheriting disciples of god merclaive! ” Rule answered back with a puzzled face.
He wasn’t able to understand why the Pope was asking him with answers which was already known to him.
” Haha! I mean the original past, not the story which we use to deceive our believers! ”
Pope laughed out again revealing his shining white tooth while at it.
” The original one! ”
Rule paused for some second before exclaiming hesitantly.
” Our church was formed by the seven servants of merclaive, that used to do chores for him! ”
Though it was hard to believe, the mighty church which now stands head to head against super powers was once formed by seven servants of Merclaive.
” What servants and what slayers? ” The ignorant one at here, who wasnt able to understand a thing they were discussing mumbled out being puzzled.
” And for what reason was our church created? ”
With this question the cardinal was loosing patience, but still going by hierarchy, he exclaimed politely stating
” The true one or the fake? ”
” Why don’t you say it a little louder for our Cela to listen! ” Pope exclaimed pointing the figure of Cela.
” Starting with the fake, it’s to maintain order in the continent. ”
The first sentence was a thing known to Cela but the one which was exclaimed later by him had nearly made her shock in disbelief.
” The real one is to run errands for God merclaive, who’s still testing us to find weather our existence is worthy of his attention or not! ”
immediately after staying these words, he turned back towards the Pope and questioned.
” But respected almighty, why are you asking the answers for that trivial questions, whose answers are known to you hundreds of years ago?
Is it for the same of cela to get out of dark? ”
Unable to retain his curiosity Rule asked him straight forwardly.
” For that question, you better ask our little cela over there! ”
Pope answered him, before disappearing from the communication apparatus.
Glia looked at the puzzles face of cela and exclaimed ” With this I hope your question is answered, and dear see that no harm occurs to him! ”
Spelling this few lines, she too disappeared from the device.
As if a sudden realization hit her brains, she mumbled lightly, stating.
” No… it can’t be… how could that be true? ”
” If what he said was true… wouldn’t that make him…
Che! I should have treated that one better, hope he doesn’t take offense for it! ”
