Chapter 331 - Cleaning the Battlefield (2/2)
He would become a new demon lord that could threaten the entire world of Ashan!
Moreover, the most worrying thing was the Dark Messiah! The reason why Gem and Zehir wanted to kill the Dark Messiah was that they thought that even though the Dark Messiah was the son of Kha-Beleth, Demon Osiris might keep this Child of Taboo.
They felt that demons were all the same. Osiris killed Kha-Beleth only because he coveted his authority. But in the end, he would also use the Dark Messiah to open Sheogh’s cage and release the other demon lords…
When the demon lords returned to this world, what would happen next?
The Dragon of Chaos, Urgash, would come again! All of Ashan would be destroyed in flames!
Thinking of such tragic consequences, the only thought in the minds of Gem and Zehir, who had managed to escape with great difficulty, was—I must seek Asha’s guidance…
After the pursuers returned, Julia and Benia folded their wings and landed beside Roy. The moment they arrived in front of him, they knelt on one knee, put a hand to their chests, and bowed to him.
They were congratulating him. He had defeated Kha-Beleth and proved his bravery. Even though he had not yet completed the final ritual, Roy was already a true demon lord in Julia’s and Benia’s hearts!
This etiquette was the respect and loyalty to a demon lord…
At this moment, Roy had already digested Kha-Beleth’s soul and memories, and his magic power increased once again. He accepted Julia and Benia’s greeting calmly, but his eyes were now on Cassandra, who was floating out of the valley.
Still in that gorgeous, petal-like lich robe, Cassandra was now a lich master. Since she was last by Isabel’s side, Roy was not surprised when he saw the baby in her arms.
“Is this the Dark Messiah?” Looking at the baby in swaddling clothes, Roy subconsciously reached out to take him.
But unexpectedly, Cassandra’s skeleton arms retracted slightly at this moment. This action stunned Roy.
“Master…” Cassandra said hesitantly. “How… will you treat this child?”
Roy guessed what Cassandra was thinking almost immediately. Even though she had immense hatred at first, Cassandra was a lich transformed from a human woman after all…
“Don’t worry. I won’t do anything to a harmless baby!” Roy said.
After hearing Roy’s words, Cassandra silently breathed a sigh of relief and handed over the Dark Messiah. “Queen Isabel named him Sareth…”
Roy’s palm was very big now, and he could gently hold this little baby in the hollow of his palm. Fat Tiger also came over and looked curiously at Sareth in Roy’s palm, feeling that he had never seen such a small person before.
This little human-like baby was worthy of being called the Dark Messiah, and he was full of a powerful dark aura. Roy felt it and found that it was at the middle-rank demon level, close to the high-rank demon level. But this child could not control and use such powerful dark power, so his power was constantly spreading around.
Sareth’s eyes were wide open at this moment. Facing Roy’s ferocious demon appearance, he was not afraid at all. He stretched out his little hand at Roy, seemingly asking for a hug.
This was not a normal infant. Roy could smell the demon smell on him. The blood in his body was likely purple like a demon’s.
Looking at this Child of Taboo, Roy could not help but ask, “Why is he named Sareth? It would have been amazing if it was Dante or Vergil…”
“Wh-what?” Cassandra, Julia, and Benia were stunned when they heard his words, not understanding what he meant.
“It’s nothing!” Roy also realized that he had lost his cool, so he handed Sareth to Cassandra and let her hold him. “Let’s go back to Ur-Hekal. Kha-Beleth and Xeron left us a great inheritance that is waiting for us to receive…”
