Omni-Mastery

The crazy woman stood in front of me for a single second with her hand holding her chin as if she was in a moment of contemplation before she walked back to her chair and sat in silence.

'Eccentric…'

It was very obvious that this woman was the most crazy and eccentric one of her faction, much suited to being the master of the cult famous for such personalities.

The hall was suddenly enveloped in an awkward silence as a result, but I naturally wasn't going to let that continue, this was exactly the perfect opportunity for me to flip the table on the demons!

Maybe if the difference was only in number, then I might have had a chance of doing a 'dungeon-run' over the huge number of bases and removing the invasion problem before it even started, but that was nothing but a simple pipe dream…

Not to mention that according to Crane's memory some individuals within the demon camp like the 'Commander' held similar strength to Blade who was said to be the strongest person in the domain or at least within the world of sects, there were also unpredictable occurrences that could delay my advance terribly like that 'Demon Sovereign Sacrifice'. Most importantly as soon as I was noticed in one gate, the rest would know and a change of plans would take place, wasting away the only chance that we have.

As such, this was something that the whole domain had to tend to, there were obvious limits to what one person could do on his own and even Blade realized that he couldn't finish the whole thing on his own without having too many casualties, so the key point was to convince those in front of me, only then would the tables be flipped!

Using a method similar to the one I used to convince Blade was already impossible, there would be no attack against the 'Dead Pest' nor could we conduct mind search on Crane's clone again. As for the original Crane, his mental strength wasn't weak enough to be easily defeated and degraded of all its memories. So the only way of delivering a convincing speech was to follow the steps that Blade followed from the very start, including introducing me and the demon head like that, it was all for this exact moment!

"Alright, I will be going straight into the topic, this hideous thing you are seeing is something that I hunted myself, I did encounter demons and very recently at that."

The expressions of the attendees were changing but they still kept their silence, it was very apparent that since that crazy woman finally shut up, it was better if the explanation went on without any interruptions, even those that didn't believe anything till now were probably burning with curiosity.

"Most of you probably already know that demons exist, but the problem is that you believe they had already become extinct, believing that the only source of danger that haunts the domain is the 'Dark Nests' of the Dark Domain and the monster race that lives around, but that's not the case."

Taking a small pause, the demon head in my hand disappeared as I stored it away before pointing towards the crippled Crane.

"The reason for that is very simple, it's because of such despicable monsters who abandon their humanity for the sake of gaining more strength or simply for securing their safety. They did the demons' work for them without having to appear to the public and even covered for them."

Taking a look at Crane's eyes that were full of resentment, I simply didn't care as I continued, he probably thought it was unfair to end like this after all of the effort he spent to achieve what he did, but this corrupted native's thoughts were none of my business.

The important thing right now was to lay the point of getting them to act like Blade did!

"However, his scope of authority is not that wide, he obviously isn't capable of executing the hideous plan of the demons on his own and that's exactly why he isn't the only one. Just like there is a mole in my sect, there are also some in yours."

The one who spoke that out in tandem with me was Blade who left his chair and walked closer to Crane.

"Seeing demons emerging from Dark Nests and even killing them was one of the many things that I experienced under my master, that time, they almost brought the strongest power of that place to its knees…" I said.

"Nevertheless, just like we all know prior to this, that's not the normal procedure to begin with, those demons who didn't go extinct from them were suppressed and imprisoned…. But these shackles were loosened by…" Blade said.

"The likes of him!"

Saying the last sentence both at the same time, it would have normally seemed like some sort of a cheap show, but that wasn't the end.

As soon as he finished the last sentence we said in union, Blade had already moved his hand beside Crane's neck and…

Thud!

His head which still had an utterly shocked expression fell down to the ground as Blade retracted his hand and sent his gaze towards the attendees. 

'It's working!'

Just judging from the expressions of the attendees that seemed to be more or less the same, they had already probably understood the whole point of the show we just pulled out as one already voiced out a question.

"Then these marks…"

"Yes." Blade immediately gave an answer. 

"You are basically saying that a dozen of traitors like him exist within our factions having removed the shackles of demons within all of these Dark Nests?"

Although only one of the nine spoke out, the others' faces all showed that they wanted to confirm the same thing.

"Correction, they can no longer be called 'Dark Nests'. These 'Demon Nests' are currently true time bombs that are ticking with a very precise timing, one wrong move and the whole domain would…"

Blade finally walked back to his chair as he sat before he looked at the attendees once more.

"Then, what plan do you have in mind…?"
