The World Serpent - Chapter 212

The Lord of Monstre furrowed his eyebrows upon hearing the words of his subordinate. He was planning on sending people to check things out, but it appears that some of them had already investigated the radio silence of the ten generals. And the answer to such silence was a lot more complicated than what he had originally thought. It might even affect the safety and security of the Clan of Monstre, which was something he obviously didn’t want. As he furrowed his eyebrows, he questioned with his distorted voice.

“What are you trying to say? Give me the detailed information about your report.” The words of the Lord of Monstre echoed as the subordinate nodded and began giving the full detail of his report. “For simpler terms, they have discovered our world and might have entered it at this moment.”

“We originally wanted to investigate the ten generals and see if they were slacking off. But the situation became worse than we had expected. All of the generals died in that world, along with the army they have been cultivating for centuries. Nothing was left, and it seems that after their death, the portal opened, concluding one fact.”

“It is safe to say and reach the conclusion that they have noticed our world and might have entered it. We don’t know where they are currently in, but a strange phenomena have been happening all over the World of Exterreri. We aren’t sure if such phenomena are connected to them, but the time and information regarding them seem to coincide with our reports.”

The Lord of Noir raised an eyebrow upon hearing the word Phenomena and its connection with the foreigners from the Realm of Piksyon. He thought about it for a while and gazed at the subordinate with a serious expression. He then questioned with his distorted voice. “What are these phenomena you are talking about, and how do they correlate with the foreigners from the Realm of Piksyon?”

Hearing the Lord of Monstre’s question, the subordinate nodded and answered with a calm voice. “From our investigation, a forsaken continent somehow disappeared from the World of Exterreri. Nothing was found on its location, and even its location is full of dimensional distortion. The ancient clans have been alerted by its disappearance though they still couldn’t find any answer about it.”

“On the other hand, we have reached a simple conclusion that the disappearance of one of the five forsaken continents was done by the foreigners. We don’t know why but for as long as we had dwelled in this world. Nothing could make an entire forsaken continent disappear without any single trace. This is the reason why we had such a conclusion.”

The Lord of Monstre nodded in understanding upon hearing the explanation of his subordinate. What his subordinate said was a good explanation, though judging from the subordinate’s words. It wasn’t the only phenomenon that has been happening in the World of Exterreri. With this in mind, he waited for his subordinate to continue the explanation.

“The remaining phenomena is a strange and heavy energy signature that seems to appear and fade at a moment’s notice. The energy density could rival the Lords of the ancient clans though the energy signature is something that hasn’t been found in the World of Exterreri. We can also correlate this to the foreigners that might have passed through the portal we were building.”

“In conclusion, at this moment, foreigners might have been exploring through the World of Exterreri and are probably investigating it. They would try to gain information about the ones that dared the invade their Realm and might even get revenge for it. We might get exterminated, and the only way for survival is to join together with the ancient clans in the World of Exterreri.”

The subordinate was rather blunt about it. The Lord of Monstre’s aura got heavier and heavier, though the subordinate didn’t seem that much affected by it. The Lord of Monstre slowly calmed down as his aura got lighter and lighter. After a while, the Lord of Monstre sighed and asked with his distorted voice. It was a simple question about the inhabitants of the Realm of Piksyon.

“So who do you think in the Realm of Piksyon could do such a thing?”

The subordinate thought about it for a while and answered with a calm voice. “With the information, we have about the Realm of Piksyon. The existence of thousands of Great Rulers could probably flatten the World of Exterreri. Fortunately, they are greatly divided, which we can use to our advantage. That was the reason why we joined their Great War. Since it has failed, and our ten generals got instantly decimated without anything left from them or the outpost we have on the Realm of Piksyon.”

“It’s easy to conclude that the foreigners that have entered our world are creatures beyond the Great Ruler. They are probably the rare mythical daemons in the Realm of Piksyon. To be exact, the mythical daemons of the strongest forest, known as the Great Forest. Our invasion towards the elven territory prompted them to investigate the Calidus Desert, which resulted in the discovery of our outpost.”

The Lord of Monstre nodded in understanding once again though there was something that was bothering him. “They? Are you trying to say that more than one mythical daemon entered the World of Exterreri? Are you sure about the words escaping from that mouth of yours?” A cold glint was found on the serious expression of the Lord of Monstre, which consisted of a thousand eyes.

“Yes, there might be two or three mythical daemons that have entered the World of Exterreri. The moment they discover the Clan of Monstre’s influence in the Realm of Pikson and in the World of Exterreri. Our extermination wouldn’t be that far in the future.” The subordinate said straightforwardly as the Lord of Monstre gritted his sharp teeth.

“Then how can we evade the extermination of our Clan?” The Lord of Monstre asked with his distorted and cold voice. The subordinate froze for a second and then answered with a calm voice while gazing upon the Lord of Monstre with an emotionless gaze. “Release the information about the Realm of Piksyon to the ancient clan so that we can bring many ancient lords in our side.”

“With this, we don’t have to fight against the forces of the Realm of Piksyon alone. They also don’t have any choices as their invasion of the foreign worlds gave them a bad diplomatic reputation. No one would trust any single ancient clan in the World of Exterreri. That is with the exception of the Clan of Noir. They haven’t been that active in recent centuries.”

Upon hearing the words of the subordinate, the Lord of Monstre thought about it for a while. If they had released the information about the Realm of Piksyon to the ancient clans. Their effort in the last centuries would fade. But if they won’t say anything about the Realm of Piksyon. They would get exterminated, and no one would bother that much about it.

With such thoughts, the Lord of Monstre knew that it wouldn’t be a good thing to be greedy at this moment. As if he continued to be greedy, the downfall of his Clan would get accelerated. After a while of deep thought, the Lord of Monstre gazed upon the subordinate and said with his distorted voice.

“Let us go with that plan of yours. Begin to spread rumors about our discovery of the Realm of Piksyon. And when the ancient clans asked for information about the Realm of Piksyon. We can send information that would give the results we need.” Despite being violent and chaotic, the Lord of Monstre was rather smart.

“We from the house of intellect and wisdom shall heed the Lord’s orders.” The subordinate nodded towards the Lord of Monstre. As he was about to leave, another subordinate entered, and he seemed to be shaken in fear. One would wonder what he went through. After all, a giant monster shaking in fear wouldn’t be something that could be easily imagined.

“What happened?” The Lord of Monstre questioned with his distorted voice. The panicking subordinate fell down with a loud thud as he said towards the Lord of Monstre with a voice full of sorrow and fear. “My Lord, something has invaded the continent we reside in. They were quite small but their power was something that we couldn’t handle.”

“The Southern Main Branch that I had resided in was completely decimated. Even the strongest officials in the Southern Main Branch couldn’t handle their power and were treated like unwanted insects. I only managed to escape with the use of the teleporter.” The panicking subordinate said as he thought that he was rather lucky for escaping alive.

But from the outside, it was different. What the subordinate and the Lord of Monstre saw was something totally different.

He was full of strange violet substances that completely enveloped his body. He noticed the strange gaze of the Lord of Monstre and wanted to question it. But before he could release his last words, he exploded and became a meat bomb.

Meanwhile, in the southern part of the continent where the Clan of Monstre resided in, Three ladies were walking through the Southern Main Branch. Everything around them was burning as mountains that were near the Southern Main Branch completely collapsed. They were traversing through a vast puddle of blood that came from their enemies. The lady in the center with silver white hair then uttered with a serene voice.

“Now…. Where shall we go next?”
