"So my guess was right. They are not over with ."
The Scarlet King did all this to draw as much attention to himself, making sure that quietly silencing him was not an option. After Orphin and Amos failed to report back, the Scarlet King was confident that the one behind the plan to kill Kain put backups in place, and it seed that the guard was one of them.
All kinds of thoughts went through the mind of the Atrox guard. He had already put several plans in motion in case Kain would arrive, but all of them went to waste now that thousands of people saw the man appear on the head of a King Beast.
There was no way he could keep things quiet now, so he could only resign to the fact that ending the young man's life was not a choice, at least not without anyone knowing it. Your adventure continues at My Virtual Library Empire
"Young Lord Lauzer, I am Janiro, the head guard of the West Gate. We have been expecting your arrival for several months. I am sorry, but we will have to ask you so questions in private before allowing you to enter the capital."
Interrogating soone who appeared months after their designated tiline made perfect sense, especially if it was a mber of another race that no one had personally seen before.
"Hmph, why would I allow a simple guard to question !"
However, the Scarlet King unleashed an overwhelming might as he stepped forward, walking across the air as he released an Essence Wave of the Wave Champion rank. Standing in the sky, he glanced at the Sky-Light Eagle before softly nodding.
While no words were uttered, the Sky-Light Eagle felt as if an invisible chain had vanished, allowing it to regain its freedom, and imdiately flashed away, back into the Silent Forest.
When Janiro saw the King Beast flying away, a sharp light appeared in his eyes as he glanced at a man to his left. The creature might have so information about Kain, sothing he could use to calm down the people he was working for.
The Atrox next to Janiro nodded as he focused on the King Beast and flashed toward it. The fact that it brought here a Young Lord of the Hell Clan mattered little to him, as he only needed to follow orders. Besides, he did not think Kain would dare to do anything against an Early Wave King like him.
Unfortunately for the Atrox, he was very wrong, as he was just about to move past Kain's figure when an arc of sonic energy charged with darkness and lightning clashed with him, forcing the man to defend himself.
"¡BOOOM!"
An explosion echoed across the West Gate as the arc of sonic energy crashed with the Atrox's Bio Armor before a deafening silence erged since no one could believe what they had just seen.
Not only did Kain attack an Atrox Wave King, but the attack carried enough power for the guard to have to block it. While there was no injury to the Atrox guard, the fact that a Wave Champion could stop the montum of a Wave King was shocking!
"You!"
There was rage in the Atrox guard's eyes as he stared at Kain. The attack could not overco his defenses, but it was still embarrassing that a Wave Champion forced him to stop his chase.
Kain's eyes began to glow with red light, unleashing a willpower equal to a Peak Wave Champion as he held Slaughter in his right hand and stared at the guard coldly.
"Hmph. Consider yourself lucky. No matter their power, no one can harm the pets of my Master!"
Janiro was shocked to see Kain unleash an Ego Wave at the First Realm of the Ego Eternal Path of Power, along with a battle power at the Late Wave Champion Rank.
'What is happening! Wasn't this just another small Lord who no one would miss? This man is clearly a young genius of the Inferno Daemon Race!'
The difference between killing a small Lord and a genius was significant, as there were countless Lords in a race, but those with the right to call themselves geniuses were much fewer. Genius were usually treasured by their families and the powers behind them, and they would demand answers if sothing happened to them.
Right now, Janiro felt himself between a sword and a hard place, as he had already accepted the reward to take care of Kain if this one were to appear, but killing a genius would bring all sorts of trouble.
Before Janiro could decide, a golden force field inundated the area, covering all the Atrox guards and Kain.
The Scarlet King could feel how the person was probing his cultivation and racial characteristics. It would have been easy to fight back and repel it, but that would an revealing his true Ego Wave. Besides, the red mask ensured that the owner of the golden force field could only see what he wanted to show.
The golden force field did not remain for long as a person descended from the sky the next second, donning a golden armor different from the one that normal Atrox used but still covering every part of his body except for his blue eyes.
When Janiro and the other guards saw the man, they imdiately bowed.
"Marshal Damos."
'An Apotheosis Realm Master. I detect vigilance in his eyes but no hostility. I can work with that.'
The Scarlet King adopted a respectful stance as he nodded to the Marshal. All his show worked as it brought soone the enemy could not have bought.
Janiro grew nervous as the man's presence restricted his movents, but before he could say a word, Damos looked in his direction with coldness.
That sight was enough for Janiro to know that at least his position as a guard of the Evernight City was over.
Marshal Damos did not waste too much ti with the man before focusing on Kain.
"Young Lord Lauzer, co with . We will go through the routine security check before I guide you to your residence along with the other guests from the Inferno Daemon Empire."
