A Demon's Journey

The two princes narrated the entire event to the King in detail.

After listening to everything, the King frowned deeply as he noticed how this individual had framed David. Moreover, he would have succeeded in driving a grudge between the King and David if not for David's cautious actions.

The King was also rather ashamed to know that someone had manipulated him so accurately. This embarrassment also led to his anger towards this perpetrator.

David then added, "I will take my leave now. I need to go and train."

The King was left in the hall with his mouth agape. His son was finally going to resume his training?!

David had nearly stopped training after his fight against those geniuses from the Glerian Kingdom. He had always thought he was too strong and also wanted to enjoy a challenge and experience excitement.

Only with the threat of death from someone of the same level as him could excite him.

Today, he met this person. Someone in the same realm who was much stronger than him!

The King was delighted to see this change. He knew that David was bound to surpass him. He had been chosen by the Legendary Phoenix Spirit as her next inheritor.

Andre spoke out, "I apologize, father, but some parts of the herbal garden were destroyed due to that individual and eldest brother's battle. Allow me to return and tend to the herbs again."

The King thought for some moments before nodding, "Alright." He soon added with a slightly worried face, "Take a guardian with you. If this perpetrator attacks you again, he needs to pay the appropriate price in response."

"…Yes, father," Andre replied before taking his leave.

The King considered several options for obtaining additional information about the offender, but the best he could come up with was to prepare a reward. David Valliadis and Andre Valliadis described Edwin's full appearance in this bounty. It also stated his powers, and it was advised that if anybody saw him, they should report him to the Kingdom's authorities as quickly as possible.

Needless to say, this bounty was quite useless. A random person won't relate this bounty to Edwin Rhodes.

Only those who knew of Edwin's true power would relate this perpetrator to Edwin. These individuals were Jonas Rhodes, Shun Gordon, Bianca Russel, Rein Schwarz, Nancy Gill, Tronte, and Sophie Russel.

Even Siluca didn't know that Edwin was actually the Rhodes Family's Heir. She only knew of his identity as Dark Shadow and his name as Nudar.

All the people who knew of Edwin's true power had their reasons for concealing this information from the King.

Edwin planned to stay in Sophie's mansion for another week before returning to Kloras Town. The main reason was that Spencer Russel was returning to his house.

He had to meet that man. Spencer was definitely going to find out about his relationship with Sophie through the Royal Guards stationed around the mansion.

Even Bianca couldn't order them to keep their mouth shut. Actually, if Bianca gave such an order, they would only be suspicious of her…

The best action in this situation was to act naturally.

Sacred Ice Aurora Valley Sect.

It had been nearly one and half a month since Helena had begun to train under Tiana.

Helena could now spar against her newborn partner, which was a Frozen Spirit Fox. Now, Helena was proficient in guiding someone else in the same techniques she had trained in.

Tiana thought with a serious expression, 'I need to make the sect famous first.'

She knew how to accomplish that.

'Yrellea did send me information that a convention between the sects is going to begin soon enough. All newly created sects can participate in this convention. If I reach the top 10 ranks, my name should spread in the entire kingdom.'

"Helena, I will leave the sect for a month or two. It will be in your hands till then. Come with me. I will link your spirit to the sensing array of our sect. You will find out when someone is approaching our sect. When you go into the array chamber, you can even see who is approaching the sect." Tiana spoke.

Helena was slightly startled before she nodded, "…Alright, elder sister."

The two walked inside the array chamber of this Ice Palace that was created by Azaroth. Every time Helena walked inside, she couldn't help but stare at this magnificent view here.

There were too many arrays working at the same time.

The best thing about these arrays was that one array literally converted the cold air in the surroundings to the energy that empowered most of the arrays in the Sacred Ice Aurora Valley Sect.

The Sacred Ice Aurora Valley Sect was not wasting its resources to operate these arrays.

Helena had studied cultivation for this one and half months very seriously. She knew just how complex it was to create arrays.

And she was in complete awe of the person who had created this Ice Palace and all these arrays.

'Elder Sister Tiana refers to him as Master Azaroth. I hope I have the opportunity to meet him.'

Helena also thought of her parents. She longed to go out and meet them, but she knew she wouldn't be able to do so anytime soon.

Tiana had to leave, and the entire sect was left in her hands, and she couldn't betray Tiana's trust.

Naturally, Tiana wouldn't have trusted a random person to take care of the sect while she was away. However, she had gauged Helena's character during this time.

She was a very simple and honest individual. Tiana was a very good judge of someone's character. She also knew that to build a long-lasting sect, she had to have someone trustworthy.

According to Sargan, Helena's background was absolutely clean. There was no possible reason for her to betray Tiana.

Anyway, the two walked to the sensing array.

Tiana stared at that array with a serious expression and then extended her arms towards it. She ordered, "Follow my lead."

Helena didn't understand what they were going, but she followed Tiana's actions.

Soon, a blue light covered Tiana and Helena's palms. This blue light was slowly enveloping their entire bodies.

Helena's spirit experienced a tingly feeling as this blue light continued to linger over her body.

Suddenly, a wide scenery appeared in Helena's mind, and she was absolutely startled, 'W-What?!'

Helena soon noticed something strange and immediately thought 'Wait a second… This looks like the surroundings of the Sect.'

"I have connected your spirit to the sensing array. An image should have appeared in your mind. Now, try to use your spirit to look around." Tiana's instructions suddenly appeared in Helena's mind.

Helena did as she was ordered and asked her spirit to show her the scenery on the right side.

The image in her head began to move at a quick pace. It was as if someone was turning his head.

Soon, Helena could see the scenery in that direction.

'Was I always able to see such far distance?' She wondered in confusion.

"You will also be able to sense when someone enters the range.. It will feel weird for the first few times, but I am sure that you will get used to it." Tiana added
