A Demon's Journey

While Nudar was executing his full-proof plan in the Lamhilhan Theocracy, the situation was quickly transforming in the Sinyalian Kingdom.

Lewis Noble Family of the Sinyalian Kingdom managed to convince most of the Noble Families in the alliance to join their cause.

Piero of the Lewis Noble Family promised them excessive returns since if they managed to take over the entire business of the Merchant Union, it would truly enrichen them!

Most of the Noble Families naturally understood what Piero meant. However, this also indicated an arduous battle against the King. None of them wanted that.

The King held great power, commanded a colossal army, and held a range of connections with powerful individuals from other kingdoms.

If he requested help, these influential figures would definitely come to assist him.

However, the Piero Family pulled out its ace in the hole at this moment! They mentioned a deal with a religion!

Moreover, this deal included the Clyranis Religion! This religion was spreading rather quickly as its followers increased regularly.

This was all because the Emissaries of Clyranis had saved the citizens when even the King was helpless.

Their magnanimity earned people's praise, and it hadn't taken long for Clyranis to spread its branches in the Sinyalian Kingdom.

However, this religion didn't possess a proper foundation in the Sinyalian Kingdom!

The Noble Families could help with that! If they set up proper temples and laid out some schemes that favored the Clyranis Religion, it would spread among the people even more rapidly.

The purpose of nearly every religion was to spread its teachings and make more people pray to their gods.

This was how their gods gathered large quantities of faith energy and became even stronger!

When the other Noble Families realized it was a deal with the Clyranis religion, they didn't immediately reject the proposal of the Trade Union.

They believed that if they could grab the Clyranis Religion's support, they would have a good chance of making the Trade Union a successful entity.

This was what Piero wanted to do. He wanted to implant a vision in their mind! Once the vision had taken root, he was done with half of his work.

The other half was basically to convince the Clyranis Religion.

Now, this part wasn't so challenging when nearly ten heads of the Noble Families visited the pope of the Emissaries of Clyranis.

The pope requested time. Piero gave him a day to think about it.

On that day, the pope sent an emergency message to the Celestials.

After the Celestials received that message, an Angel contacted the pope and asked him about the issue.

The pope explained the entire matter to the Angel and asked her consent on whether he should accept this deal or reject it.

The Angel was silent for nearly half an hour. She might have been discussing it with her higher-ups.

However, after half an hour, she returned and confidently told the pope to accept the deal. Just as Piero had guessed, the purpose of this religion was to spread among more people to strengthen their god.

It didn't matter whether they were going against the Monarch of the Sinyalian Kingdom in the process. What mattered was a large number of followers!

The next day, the pope gave his answer to Piero.

The answer naturally delighted the entire group. When the Noble Family Alliance heard that the Emissaries of Clyranis had accepted their deal, they immediately began to celebrate, and more noble families joined their cause.

With the assistance of Clyranis religion and their already huge manpower, there was no way the King could stop them!

The King and the Merchant Union were going to experience a million-volt shock so intensely that it would shake their very soul!

When the King heard this news through his spies, he did get that million-volt shock! And the funny thing was that he could do nothing to stop it!

He couldn't just oppose a new organization being set up in his Kingdom. If it was without the support of the religion, perhaps he could have fought it out against the Noble Families.

However, the support of Clyranis religion was truly effective! It completely tied down the King's hands!

Even if the king ignored the power of the Celestials backing up the Emissaries of Clyranis, they still held the public's support!

The public's support couldn't be ignored! If he lost the support of the people, he could very well lose parts of territories in his own kingdom! It would shake the foundation of his Kingdom!

However, the king had no idea how he should deal with this situation.

It almost seemed as if he had given up.

A few days later, something shocking happened. Piero of the Lewis Family lost his life, even though, he was fully guarded by his 5 Star Warriors! However, this wasn't shocking news.

The shocking news was that the ones who murdered Piero were none other than the infamous Inquisitor Fox, Inquisitor Dog, and Inquisitor Wolf!

The location where they slaughtered Piero was a whorehouse. It seemed as though it was a fully planned murder.

The king was shocked because he hadn't given the order! The Inquisitors had actually acted on their own!

And he knew just one guy who had planned this. It was Inquisitor Fox!

King Valliadis knew that Inquisitor Fox must have deduced the identities of his comrades by getting some clues and using his extraordinary intelligence.

Or maybe he had planned something on them that he could sense to find their other identities and privately contacted them.

King Valliadis knew what Shun was trying to do here. He was forcing the King into action.

The news of Clyranis religion and the Noble Family Alliance's cooperation had thoroughly shaken the King. It made him meek. He was scared of taking a decision that had the potential to shake the foundation of the Kingdom!

However, there was something King Valliadis didn't know that Shun knew. Shun knew that Piero was working on a Demon God's orders without even realizing it!

Shun knew that killing Piero would definitely alert Azaroth. Azaroth would eventually realize that Shun knew everything!

On the other hand, Shun realized that if this Trade Union was successful, it would have entirely overthrown the Royal Family. At that point, Azaroth could have simply stepped inside and controlled the Kingdom!

This scheme had to be stopped at all costs!

When Azaroth heard from Bianca that Inquisitor Fox had killed Piero, he began to chuckle loudly.

'The experiment was a success! Inquisitor Fox truly did realize that I was controlling the Sinyalian Kingdom through Bianca.'

There was a fond smile on his face as he thought 'What an entertaining opponent. He truly doesn't allow me to relax for a single second.'

In the Glerian Kingdom, King Tryfon Rellas had halted any further attacks on the Sacred Ice Aurora Valley Sect. He was horrified at the prospect of an Emperor Ranked Expert turning against him.

However, Azaroth wasn't naturally going to stop just because the King didn't continue his attack. The next day, a loud announcement resounded in Crario, the Capital City of the Glerian Kingdom.

"Attention all citizens! I'm Tiana Rhodes, the Sacred Ice Aurora Valley Sect's Sect Mistress. The King dispatched a group to destroy our sect just a few days ago because we refused to pay him bribes! He attacked us because of an illegitimate cause! We are not going down without a fight! We're going to strike back! Join us if you are tired of the King's tyranny!"

The voice abruptly ceased to speak. However, those remarks triggered an explosion that manifested itself in the form of muttering.
