A Demon's Journey

The Ruler of the Roger Dukedom, Steven Roger, received a letter from Inquisitor Fox. It was time for him to make his move on the Walsh Dukedom.

His task was to prevent any 6 Star Warrior from coming out of the Walsh Dukedom's territory.

Meanwhile, at this moment, a team of specially trained Inquisitors was sent to kill Siluca and her daughter Anna. For the king to acquire and give away Walsh Dukedom's territory to the other Noble Houses for a legitimate reason, Siluca and her family had to die.

Only Siluca and her daughter Anna had any claim over the Walsh Dukedom's territory. The King could handle all others who wanted to grab hold of this territory.

This attack on the Walsh Dukedom's territory would weaken the Sinyalian Kingdom, but it was for the Greater Good.

They were sacrificing a Dukedom in return for the head of a Demon God. There was no comparison between the two..

Even if a King had to sacrifice tens of dukedoms for the head of a Demon God, he would never hesitate to sacrifice his dukedoms.

The threat from a Demon God was far too great. He might destroy the entire Kingdom or even take over his throne if he was given enough time.

There were many cases when a reincarnated Demon King or a Demon Emperor would destroy a prosperous kingdom or take over the throne.

That kingdom was then destroyed by the neighboring kingdoms. Those neighboring kingdoms would form an alliance and completely demolish the kingdom holding a Demon King or Emperor.

This alliance was called the Purging Demonic Kingdom Alliance!

It was a special kind of alliance created only when the kingdom next to them was proven to hold demonic influence within them.

There was another crucial point to this, though. Once a kingdom had been proven to hold Demonic Influence, it was absolutely compulsory for the neighboring kingdoms to form the Purging Demonic Kingdom Alliance and destroy that particular kingdom.

The one who set this order was the Qin Empire in the east. They would sometimes use their reputation, strength, and even wealth to ensure that all those kingdoms would form the Purging Demonic Kingdom Alliance.

Even two rival kingdoms would sometimes join hands to destroy the kingdom with the demonic influence.

The King had pulled out many strange things from his treasury.

Spencer remained at his home. He wasn't asked to move for this mission since the king and Shun knew that his daughter was hopelessly in love with Edwin.

Considering that the two talked every day, Sophie might mention something related to Spencer. If Edwin caught even a whiff of what they were planning, they would never be able to catch him.

Shun and the King made the right option by not involving Spencer. It's not just because of Sophie; it's because of Bianca as well.

The woman was under Azaroth's hypnosis, and she would be determined to learn what the King was planning via Spencer or through his influence.

Unfortunately, even Bianca didn't catch a whiff of this plan. It remained a secret from her.

As a result, Edwin had no idea that Shun had begun advancing towards him while expanding Kloras Town and assisting one of the factions from the Lamhilhan Theocracy.

Inquisitor Fox, better known as Shun, was also one of the individuals leading his men against Edwin.

The King had sent many other 6 Star Warriors as support in case something unexpected occurred.

They continued to move for the next three days and neared the Kloras Town with each passing day.

A few days later, Edwin sensed a large force coming towards the Kloras Town from the west. He was absolutely startled to sense this large force because it contained lots of 5 Star Warriors and 6 Star Warriors only.

'What is going on?! Why are so many warriors moving towards Kloras Town? It can't be because of a simple check. So many 6 Star Warriors wouldn't be required. They are coming to attack the Kloras Town or me?' Edwin frowned as he faintly understood what was going on.

'Alright, calm down. First, I need to figure out who is leading this force,' Edwin calmly thought.

He pulled out his Voice Transmission Array Stone and used it to contact a couple of men who would have probably known about it.

Edwin frowned as his Voice Transmission Array Stone didn't connect with any of his men.

'… Why can't I get in touch with them? This is strange. Something is going on, and I need to find out about it quickly,' Edwin thought solemnly.

Edwin then tried to contact Siluca Walsh. But unfortunately, the same thing happened there.

Edwin knew how infatuated this woman was with him. Siluca wouldn't ignore his connection on her personal Voice Transmission Array Stone. Only a couple of people could contact her through her personal Voice Transmission Array Stone.

He decided to contact Rein Schwarz.

Rein Schwarz did connect with Edwin. He spoke out, "Who is it?"

"It's me, Dark Shadow," Edwin responded coldly.

"Aah. It's you, Dark. So, what is it? Why contact me today?" Rein Schwarz spoke a little hurriedly.

"You are busy?" Edwin asked while narrowing his eyes.

"A little. You know, I got a lot to do these days," Rein Schwarz tried to calm his nerves and replied normally.

Edwin ignored those words and then asked him, "Is there any large-scale movement you are aware of?"

Rein Schwarz spoke a little slowly, "No. There is no such movement."

"I see. That was helpful, Rein Schwarz," Edwin responded coolly.

After Rein Schwarz placed down his Voice Transmission Array Stone, he stared ahead in the eyes of a beautiful woman.

This was Inquisitor Cat, also known as Nancy Gill. She had a bright smile on her oval face as she spoke, "…That was a good choice, my dear. You won't need to die now."

Around Rein Schwarz were tens of unknown men holding different kinds of weapons.

In the meantime, Edwin placed down his Voice Transmission Array Stone. He understood that something was going on.

Someone had realized the threat he posed and had already begun to move after him.

'Whoever is targeting me has investigated me deeply. He has dealt with all of my possible subordinates and allies. Those regular reports I received in the recent months must have been forged by them. Perhaps they caught my subordinates and then forced them to become double agents. Or maybe they captured or killed them before placing another guy who could write similar reports as those men.'

'Whatever the case is, it's clear that someone has targeted me and has actually been dealing with the web I spread in the entire Sinyalian Kingdom.'

'The force that's coming for my head. Only the King or someone very close to the king could possess this authority. This means the King has realized my identity or at the least, he has an idea of it.'

'Since it's the king who is on the move, Siluca and her family must have been massacred as well.'

Soon, Edwin picked up his Voice Transmission Array Stone. He tried to contact his last resort.

Edwin waited for a couple of seconds before his Voice Transmission Array Stone suddenly connected.

"Tronte. I need your assistance. A large group of warriors is coming towards Kloras Town. Tell me who is leading it," Edwin asked.

At that time, Edwin heard the words that utterly startled him!

"Why do you think I will answer that question, demon?" Tronte's calm and cold voice resounded in Edwin's ears.

'Oh shit!'

Tronte was the person Edwin didn't want as an enemy. This man knew a lot of information regarding Edwin. His network was so large that Edwin's network couldn't compare to it.

However, fate had other plans.
