"Hey, is it alright for her to see this thing?"
"Don't you fear things leaking out?" The Demon Emperor asked, raising his brows while observing the Dark Elf.
Although she looked young, he could feel a very strong aura from her.
A Supreme Realm Expert.
Dark Elves are a species formed because of the desire for salvation.
Elves are prideful and arrogant and lock anyone who disobeys these laws.
Many were locked up while many were forced to become a slave and servants.
The laws were so severe that many tried to fight their way to change the laws but all of them failed and were locked up in prison.
The existence of half-elves is considered a sin and they were either hunted and killed or locked up.
Half-elves and all the prisoners who were imprisoned unjustly found their chance when that scum started his rampage.
The First Emperor Of Kinley, Midgard.
A complete lunatic and a psychopath whose morals were beyond twisted.
He crushed human rulers like twigs. The humans of that time were nothing but farts filled with weaklings and crybabies.
Demons and Elves became allies and fought to the bitter end with him but soon The Elves succumbed due to the rise of Dark Elves.
No one knew how it happened but the millions of Elves imprisoned accepted the blessing of an ancient being and were asked to follow Midgard in a request for salvation.
They gained new abilities after losing nature power and their skin became tan giving the rise to the new species.
With the end of Elves, except Demons, every race succumbed.
The Dragons were another group of assholes who didn't listen to their warnings and cooped up in their dimensional world only to be defeated by Midgard.
Ruling over every species, his army crashed onto Demon lands and purged them into the fire, committing massacre and genocide as his desire.
Even after winning over them, he treated Demons like slaves due to his hatred for them as they kept on opposing them for a bitter end.
After his defeat by the Human favoured by Goddess, Demons were forced to serve humans as slaves and he didn't give a damn about humans.
Crack!
Small cracks started to appear on the armpit as he thought about the disgusting history.
After thousand years of bitter struggle and bloody battle, Demons were able to free themselves and had reached where they are now but this wasn't enough.
He wanted them to suffer the same fate. He wants to crush their pride before it can soar any further.
He wanted them to despair and beg with tears of blood.
The humiliation they have suffered for years can only be washed away by blood.
Humans have been developing rapidly and their high fertilisation rate added further fuel to their growth.
If they keep on expanding like this, soon they would have enough power to devour the whole world.
On top of that, unlike humans getting strong blessings from Goddess, the Devil they worship didn't give them blessings leading to the further weakening of their race.
And it was the same for Dark Elves who had been hunted by Elf for generations.
The Elves have vowed to eradicate the entire species of Dark Elves until none are left.
The Emperor raised his head and returned an undaunted smile.
His sharp teeth ground against each other and an Almighty power enveloped him crushing the entire room and everything started to shake.
Joe laughed a little seeing Leona trembling under the pressure. He waved his hand casually and all the pressure dispersed in an instant.
"This is the time for our rise." He shouted with a sinister smile.
His smile contained more malevolence than before and his eyes glinted with excitation.
Demons have been inhabiting the Northern land which is a barren wasteland, a dry cold desert where the situation was quite harsh.
While they were secluded in such a land where any being found it hard to survive, they inhabited this place with no choice as all other races occupied large patches of Central plains and basked in prosperity due to the suitable climate.
While they declined, others grew powerful, while they had to sleep with hungry stomachs, others would fill themselves up to the brim and throw out the excess.
They all lived in the illusion that Demons had to live in a very poor state without food to feed themselves properly so how can they raise an army
The situation was similar to what they thought but it changed after coming in contact and signing the deal with Joe.
With the support of his brethren and using his absolute dominance, he carved a path for them.
The Emperor gritted his teeth and spoke.
"Although, we can begin what if the other races join?" That was the only fear that had been holding me back from finalising the plan.
"We hold them back for you. We can begin soon enough." Joe spoke.
"What do you want in return?"
"We want slaves, tons of them. We need more than before. Ten times more."
"I don't know what kind of shady things you are doing but as long as it doesn't clash with my plans, I will turn a blind eye."
"Thanks for your Kindness, Your Majesty."
"Now it's time for me to go back."
"I will leave Leona in your care."
"We will meet again next time."
'And hopefully, you might have set the stage for us.'
Joe's figure disappeared leaving behind Roana and the Demon Emperor to discuss things.
...
"Alex!"
"Alex!"
"Huhh!" Alex was startled and spilled the coffee on his dress.
"Why did you pass out suddenly?"
"Gosh! Stop scaring me. I thought something happened to you or your injury flared up again."Yvonne grumbled.
Both of them decided to get used to each other and spent some time getting to know each other.
Yvonne trained under Alex's instruction a bit but was injured during her sparring with Riya.
Three days ago, Alex tried to use the divinity and healing spells only to end up coughing blood.
After this Yvonne had been accompanying Alex and put him on house arrest to stop him from doing useless things.
" Are you feeling any pain somewhere?"Yvonne asked worriedly.
"No, it's just I am feeling a little uneasy."
"It feels as if something bad was about to happen."
Yvonne frowned seeing Alex's serious gaze.
Alex didn't know why a deep sense of fear started to well up inside him.
Just a few days ago Athena wrote a letter to share her experience and he could feel that he was very close to losing her forever.
Before he lost anyone he cared for again....he needs to ensure that he is good enough.
No, he needs to ensure that he is the strongest of all. And not only he but he needs to make sure that others become stronger with him.
This is not a story, where there would always be scenarios of damsels in distress.
This might happen once or twice but not every time. They need to get stronger along with him.
"We need to get stronger."
"More than ever to fend off the disaster that might come.
