The Story Never Ends

When everyone left, Davion looked straight into Bjorn's eyes and said seriously. "I want you to keep an eye on some things tomorrow."

Bjorn nodded with his heart beating fast with excitement. It seemed like the Lord had more faith in him.

"You will stay behind us hidden with your aura concealed during the battle tomorrow. I don't think Joziah, who is as sneaky as a thief, has no tricks up his sleeves." Davion spoke sternly.

"Are you hinting that he has a Devil Emperor serving him?" Bjorn's expression changed.

"Yeah. There is a high possibility. So, we have to be careful." Davion reminded him.

"I understand." Bjorn kept that in mind.

"Besides, you can keep on ambushing their devil kings while not revealing yourself." Davion cunningly added.

As a leader, how could he let his subordinates suffer? He wanted to achieve a perfect victory and at the same time scare away the surrounding forces. This would prove his strength and later help him to expand his influence.

"This is how I establish my dominance in this world." He muttered with dangerous ambition reflecting in his eyes.

"Now take me to your stronghold. I need to rest and make some preparations." He declared.

"Please follow me." Bjorn returned to his human form, changed into a new set of robes as he led the way.

***

A while later, a stronghold appeared in Davion's vision and he couldn't help but shake his head, looking at how poor its state was.

Noticing his reaction, Bjorn spoke with a bit of shame. "My Lord, you can rest assured that there are better living conditions inside."

"Humm" Davion didn't answer him but spread his Mind-Eye, catching the source of the devil vein."

"Here." He abruptly changed his direction and landed in front of the mine, alerting the nearby guards.

"Who are you?" The guards released their auras and pointed their weapons at him, following the order of their Lord.

"Stop!" Seeing this, Bjorn hurriedly jumped down from the air and yelled.

"King!" The guards all bowed towards him, showing their respects.

"My lord, please spare them." He gave him an apologetic look while wiping the beads of sweat on his forehead. How dare these fools block the Lord? Didn't they care about their lives?

"What?"

"Who might he be?"

"Why is the king so submissive towards him?"

The guards were flustered as their fates depended on him.

Nonetheless, Davion didn't bother about them and ordered, "Uproot the vein."

The guards turned towards each other with shocked expressions. They couldn't believe what they heard. Wasn't this destroying the foundation of the stronghold?

While they were worrying, Bjorn slapped in their direction without any hesitation, causing them to fly into the entrance.

"Don't waste our time." His voice rang like thunder in their ears, generating crazy thoughts in their minds.

"Did he break through the Devil Emperor Realm?"

"It seems to be the case."

"My God! What a strength!"

They exclaimed in exhilaration.

"Can you guys calm down? We have work to do."

Someone reminded them, and they hastily walked through the underground cave. They were carrying wooden torches having gems on the top that shone pale blue light on the walls, revealing the devil stones of various sizes and quality embedded there.

The further they went, the better the quality of the devil stones and concentration of devil essence. Reaching the end, traces of thorny vines could be seen sprawling from the ground and the ceiling. It gave an ominous feeling and made one feel uncomfortable.

It was completely different from the spirit vein that Davion had pulled out in the Demon Best World. Next, they took out their digging tools and dragged out the vein in a jiffy.

"Emperor, here you go." They handed him down respectfully.

"Humph! Good job. But remember to address your lord. I don't want today's incident to repeat once again." He harrumphed coldly, sending chills down their spines.

"We greet the lord." They finally fell on their knees and called him out with reverence.

Davion merely waved his hand in annoyance, not bothering about this tiny detail. He was only focused on the vein and the number of experience points it would provide.

"Take me to a residence." He commanded after putting away the vein in his spirit ring.

"Please." Bjorn led him to a simple single-storied building that was near the platform in the center and said, "My Lord, you may stay here. Meanwhile, I will order my subordinates to get ready for war."

"Ok!"

After entering inside, Davion jumped into the lamp instantly without looking at anything here. How could this rundown place compare to his beautiful small world?

"You are finally here. I thought that you had died." Siena, who was sitting cross-legged outside his castle stood up and spoke while crossing her arms. It looked like she was waiting for him for a long time.

"Hehe! Were you worried about me?" He chuckled, getting closer to her.

"In your dreams." She turned back angrily, and her gaze unexpectedly met Danny who was peering through the window.

"Swish!"

Getting caught, Danny ducked his head and ran away, dumbfounding her.

"What a weird child!" She muttered.

"Damn! Is he trying to inspect the relationship between Siena and me?" Davion cursed inwardly by putting his hand on his forehead.

"How can a child have such thoughts and be this cautious?" He felt a headache, remembering the first words Danny spoke after waking up that day.

"Father, you cannot betray mother."

"Haiz, what should I do with him?" While he was pondering, Siena suddenly asked, "Is he really your son? You guys don't look similar in any way except when you use your mysterious external body art."

She was quite curious about him. Previously, she had forgotten to ask due to the interference of Ryland and Danny fainting all of a sudden.

"It's a long story." He laid flat on the ground and roughly explained everything while mentioning the trouble he was facing at the moment.

"Haha! Who could have thought that he would be this protective?" Siena burst out laughing as she even shed tears behind the veil.

"Such a naïve and pitiful child. It annoys me thinking how that old man messed up his memories." She sighed as she sat back next to him.

"Anyways, you defeated him in the end and protected an innocent life. That's all it matters." She comforted him.

"Indeed." He had a warm smile on his face.

As someone from the other world, the ones who he could consider family were no one. Except for these two kids; Ryland and Danny, who he mistakenly ran upon. Also, he enjoyed their company as they drove him away from loneliness.

"Now for your problem, it's easy to solve it." Her words brought him back to his senses.

"How?" He inquired.

"Just bring that woman and marry her." Listening to her words, he nearly coughed out blood in anger.

"Are you dumb?" He looked at her like a fool.

"Hehe! Do you think you have any other choice?" She teased him.

"Forget it." He didn't want to bring that topic anymore.

"Regardless, that child is special. From how you said he was able to manipulate thunder, the tattoo on his face should be the thunder law rune." She praised him.

"I see." Realization dawned upon him.

"Now the other thing I'm puzzled about is, why are you in a disguise?" Gazing at his muscular body and facial features, she asked.

"Since the Heavenly Demon Sect is deeply rooted in the Devil World, I wanted to tweak my appearance a bit to keep myself safe." He replied.

"Oh! So, you already set foot in the Devil World? Why didn't you bring me out?" She exclaimed.

"Why are you so eager to go there where there isn't anything good?" He shook his head and began describing what he encountered today.

"Is it that worse?" Despite expecting that, she was still surprised.

"Anyways, I will be joining you for your conquest tomorrow. Let me see how you will take over this world." Although he was weak at present, she was sure that with his talent, he could fulfill his wild ambition.

So, she was eager to witness it with her own eyes. Or more specifically, just this imagination gave her goosebumps. The same went for Davion.

"No problem. But let me cultivate first." He changed his position into a cross-legged one and took out the jades containing the sword skills left behind by the Human Saint.

Using his Mind-Eye, he stored all this information in his brain while his panel labeled them. Next, he spent all his experience points to learn them.

"Whoosh!"

His terrifying sword intent automatically burst out, and Siena was pushed to the edge of the land as a result.

"Why does he always create a mess when cultivating?" She was furious.

"Come forth."

Closing his eyes, Davion raised his right hand and Malcolm appeared in it in the blink of an eye.. Then Davion started displaying those sword skills one after another, causing his sword intent to change once again in the process.
