Chapter 453: Shocking Truth (1/2)
”Confined?” Jin Rou observed the devil. Indeed, the devil had traces of the time he spent on this place. However, it didn't solve the confusion of Jin Rou. Why would be a devil be confined here?
”That's right. I have been here since ancient times now.” The devil old man smiled and said, ”I am Priyo. And please have a seat.”
Jin Rou created a normal wooden chair and said, ”I am called Jin.”
Since the other party introduced himself, it wasn't right if he wouldn't introduce his, right?
”I can smell some scents of the devils I am familiar with. Have you met them before?” Priyo asked without hesitation. Since it was the scent of his fellows, he was greatly concerned.
”They attacked my universe and tried to swallow us whole. And we fought back and won the battle.” Jin Rou didn't hide this fact and told the old man, ”I fought the devil emperor called Patrosh and killed him personally.”
There was a deep and long silence between them. It looked like Priyo was trying to digest this shocking information.
After a long while, he broke the silence with a weak voice, ”I see... So what I fear the most has happened. The world and universe I took care of, has fallen in despair.”
His voice was filled with indignation and helplessness. However, for some reason Jin Rou could feel a relief from the old man.
”Those people from the Prime... if we're talking about real devils, then they are the real ones.” This time, Priyo was filled with anger, ”We, the Devils, used to live in peace. We don't care about the power struggle of those other universes. After all, we just want to live in quietness away from blood and war.”
This truth was shocking that Jin Rou's eyes widened. He knew that there's more to it, so he waited for the next words.
Then, Priyo took a deep sigh and continued once again, ”But this people from the Prime, they tried to bring us to the battlefield and become their meat shield. As a devil, we have pride and dignity as well so I humbly declined their offer. Who would have thought that they're going to push it the hard way? Those bastards immediately teleported me into this place and I fought several powerful 13-crowns zeniths to avoid being confined. Unfortunately, I can't take them on for a long time because I am already old. So here I am, being confined like their dog. My power was also deteriorating because of this.”
