Chapter 675 The truth
In front of a building called the Hall of Orders in the middle of the Demon King City, the portal built by the demons of sin opens in front of the gate in turn.
A dark red beam of light rose from the center of the Hall of Orders, penetrated the clouds in the Demon Realm and reached the sky.
Time is already late at night in the Demon Realm, and two lavender moons in the sky illuminate this ancient building.
There is no parliament in the Demon Realm, and the ruler's orders are absolute for any member of the Demon Realm.
The reason why it is called the Hall of Orders is that when the "flag" rises, the four dukes and seven generals of the Demon Realm must be present, no matter what the situation is.
There are very few people in the entire demon world who dare to disobey this absolute order, and the Duke of Black Dragon is one of them.
The people of the royal city watched the beam of light that reached the sky from afar. Every appearance of it means that life in the demon world will usher in a big turning point.
It may go in a good direction, or it may make the situation in the demon world worse.
The last time the beam lit up was the ruler Nothingen who went to the border fortress.
Serhiley stood in the same position as the four dukes...
She turned her head and looked at a seat closer beside her, where the ruler was, originally where her father was.
When Thursey was young, she was watching her father... Notrene commanded the people as the ruler, but unfortunately she might never see her again in the future.
A blue-haired woman walked to the position next to Sethili. She was the incarnation of the Water Elemental Lord. Her blue pupils looked at the position like Sethili, but did not ask Sethili about where the ruler was going.
The remaining seven generals also arrived one after another, including the demon general Voss who followed Norgus.
He is a general representing the demon clan of sin...
Among the four dukes, except for the Heilong Duke, the Skeleton Duke and the Blood Duke were all present.
Everyone seemed to have made an appointment in advance, and they didn't ask the whereabouts of the ruler of the demon world.
Because in the Hall of Orders, they understand their determination, that is, the ‘listener’ rather than the ‘proposal’.
Even the most unruly skeleton master silently abides by this ancient rule.
Everyone was waiting for the only existence who spoke in the Hall of Orders to appear, and Sethilly could no longer bear to let the deadly silence continue.
"I raised the flag and summoned you."
Serhiley broke the silence in the entire Hall of Orders, and her eyes looked at everyone around her, hoping to see some clues from their expressions.
Unfortunately, except for the Grand Duke of Skeleton, the expressions of the other dukes and generals were very normal.
"It seems that Notrean has completed his mission..."
Suddenly, blood spoke out loud, and the middle-aged man with a beard stared at Sethillie with scarlet pupils.
"Dude Blood, you...have known it long ago?"
The look of Serhili looking at the Blood Lord became dangerous.
The blood clan, one of the four major branches in the demon world, has always been a vassal of the Chaos Demon, and is the confidant of the Chaos Demon. For example, the adjutant of Sethilly is Peste, the youngest daughter of the Blood Lord.
But Sethili did not rule out that these blood clans had the possibility of betrayal.
"I will always know that I remember the passing of every caretaker, but now I can't feel the grief, and can only remember the departure of an old friend again."
The Blood Lord said to Sethili in a sincere voice.
"Every guardian..."
Sethili remembers that except for the Grand Duke of Skeleton, the other three dukes were the oldest existences in the demon world.
The lifespan of the Chaos Demon is not worth mentioning in front of these three dukes. The Blood Lord witnessed the death of many rulers of the Chaos Royal Family.
Logically speaking, the Blood Lord, who has a longer lifespan, should have the position of ruler, but he did not...but he existed as an assistant.
"Is it you the next guard? His Highness Serhily or His Highness Noggs?" said the Blood Lord in a plain voice.
"Blood Lord! The Guardian...what is it?"
Listening to the tone of the Blood Lord, Sethili vaguely felt that although the title of Guardian represents the highest status in the Demon World, this crown is deadly.
The Blood Lord suddenly showed a sad smile when facing Sethil's questioning.
"Interesting, your father Notrene once stood here and asked me the same questions." said the Blood Lord.
"my father?"
Thrisheli reminded herself again that the man in front of her might be the existence of her great-great-great-great-great-grandfathers.
"A curse, the curse that is carried on your clan, one of the covenants made by your clan and our exiles in the past." The Blood Lord looked around at the general standing around, and finally told Sethilly about this covenant.
"There is a terrifying thing hanging in the demon world. Only the soul and blood of your clan can suppress it and curb its existence forever." said the Blood Lord.
"The price is the life of every caretaker?"
"It will gradually devour the consciousness and soul of any guardian, and the person who guards the abyss will become slaves of the abyss."
The words that Grand Duke of Blood said later were in a pronunciation that Sethilly was very familiar but could not understand, a bit like the language of an elf...
"The passing of the guardian will cause its power to spread on the earth, and the entire demon world will fall into chaos." said the Blood Lord, "But even if there is a guardian's guardian, it will only be delayed."
“…”
Serhiley couldn't tell whether what he said was true or lies, but the demon world is indeed facing the crisis of land ashing.
"if……"
When Sethili was about to speak, the Blood Lord interrupted her speech in advance.
"His Highness Serhily, I've had enough to send my friends in person...their children of friends embark on this path of destruction, so I have another way."
"Another way?"
Sethili has been a monitor for life. She knows clearly who lives in any corner of the Demon King City. As a result, Sethili has now discovered that she knows nothing about the world she lives in.
"Your sister Fuya." The Blood Lord once again said a name that made Sethil stunned.
"Give up your second decision and I will become the new guard."
Sethilly was not sure whether what the Blood Lord said was true, but she and her elder brother must inherit the position of the guardian. This is the obligation of the Chaos Royal Family.
But if the guardian was really as dangerous as the Blood Lord said, she would never push it to her sister.
"No, I'm not referring to making your sister a guard."
The Blood Lord waved his hand and saw a translucent screen appear in front of him. Sethili recognized this thing, which was the magic net created by Qiao Xiu!
"I kept sending my family members into human society many years ago, trying to establish religions and organizations, but all ended in failure."
The Blood Lord's fingertips were slid on the screen of the Magic Net. Judging from his movements, he was so skillful that he didn't look like a newcomer to the Magic Net, but an old bat who often sucked in the caster forum.
Thursey thought of his youngest daughter, Pester, who once established an organization called Black Dove in Nolan.
"To collect human intelligence?" asked Serhiley.
“There is partly for this and partly for the collection of human faith.”
The Blood Lord looked at his hands, and he could vaguely see some dim red light in his palm.
"His Highness Sethili, do you know the real name of your sister Fuya?" The Blood Lord felt that it was time to confess.
"Fuya's real name? No...Duke of Blood, tell me everything you know!"
When Serhili came to her senses, she realized that this fourth sister was not born to her mother.
From the memories of Thuri's childhood, Fya was brought to them by Notrene only once and said, "She is your sister from today."
