"So my guess was right. They are not over with me."@@@@
The Scarlet King did all this to draw as much attention to himself, making sure that quietly silencing him was not an option. After Orphin and Amos failed to report back, the Scarlet King was confident that the one behind the plan to kill Kain put backups in place, and it seemed that the guard was one of them.
All kinds of thoughts went through the mind of the Atrox guard. He had already put several plans in motion in case Kain would arrive, but all of them went to waste now that thousands of people saw the man appear on the head of a King Beast.
There was no way he could keep things quiet now, so he could only resign to the fact that ending the young man's life was not a choice, at least not without anyone knowing it. Your adventure continues at My Virtual Library Empire
"Young Lord Lauzer, I am Janiro, the head guard of the West Gate. We have been expecting your arrival for several months. I am sorry, but we will have to ask you some questions in private before allowing you to enter the capital."
Interrogating someone who appeared months after their designated timeline made perfect sense, especially if it was a member of another race that no one had personally seen before.
"Hmph, why would I allow a simple guard to question me!"
However, the Scarlet King unleashed an overwhelming might as he stepped forward, walking across the air as he released an Essence Wave of the Wave Champion rank. Standing in the sky, he glanced at the Sky-Light Eagle before softly nodding.
While no words were uttered, the Sky-Light Eagle felt as if an invisible chain had vanished, allowing it to regain its freedom, and immediately flashed away, back into the Silent Forest.
When Janiro saw the King Beast flying away, a sharp light appeared in his eyes as he glanced at a man to his left. The creature might have some information about Kain, something he could use to calm down the people he was working for.
The Atrox next to Janiro nodded as he focused on the King Beast and flashed toward it. The fact that it brought here a Young Lord of the Hell Clan mattered little to him, as he only needed to follow orders. Besides, he did not think Kain would dare to do anything against an Early Wave King like him.
Before Janiro could decide, a golden force field inundated the area, covering all the Atrox guards and Kain.
The Scarlet King could feel how the person was probing his cultivation and racial characteristics. It would have been easy to fight back and repel it, but that would mean revealing his true Ego Wave. Besides, the red mask ensured that the owner of the golden force field could only see what he wanted to show.
The golden force field did not remain for long as a person descended from the sky the next second, donning a golden armor different from the one that normal Atrox used but still covering every part of his body except for his blue eyes.
When Janiro and the other guards saw the man, they immediately bowed.
"Marshal Damos."
'An Apotheosis Realm Master. I detect vigilance in his eyes but no hostility. I can work with that.'
The Scarlet King adopted a respectful stance as he nodded to the Marshal. All his show worked as it brought someone the enemy could not have bought.
Janiro grew nervous as the man's presence restricted his movements, but before he could say a word, Damos looked in his direction with coldness.
That sight was enough for Janiro to know that at least his position as a guard of the Evernight City was over.
Marshal Damos did not waste too much time with the man before focusing on Kain.
"Young Lord Lauzer, come with me. We will go through the routine security check before I guide you to your residence along with the other guests from the Inferno Daemon Empire."
