Lord of the Truth

Chapter 318 This Is Personal

About an hour later -- Outside the walls of the capital of the Black Sun

~Long Inhale~

”Haaah~ The weather is perfect today….” Robin let out a long exhale as he faced the sky with his eyes closed, sitting on a very large and luxurious chair... It was the throne of the Black Sun King.

”Give your orders and end this already!!” Suddenly a shout came from  in front of Robin, interrupting his peaceful moment

”Why the hurry, Your Majesty? Do you want to experience how they feel so bad?” Robin looked down and spoke to a man kneeling in front of him and then pointed to the right

King Philip didnʼt look to where Robin was pointing, he even closed his eyes and titled his head when he remembered what was happening there

But the demon standing behind King Philip didnʼt let him have his way, he grabbed Philipʼs head and forced it toward the left and used his fingers to open his eyes to see what was happening, ”ARRGHHH!!

The scenery in that direction was simply a feast, just a happy group of demons gnawing and chewing on hundreds of corpses dressed in the uniform of the Flame Empire.

*The siege* around the imperial capital didnʼt last nearly as long as what happened in Jura, the Royal capital didnʼt have thirty thousand Saints to fight against Robinʼs mighty army...

As soon as the fight began, all the demons at the Sagehood level attacked the wall and clashed with the few dozen sages of the Flame Empire

Then the rest of the demons at sainthood jumped up past them and wreaked havoc in the army behind the walls, the ten thousand saint demons were unattended and unstoppable...

This was not a battle nor a siege, but a quick one sided massacre.

Had Robin not given strict orders to keep the Marley familyʼs descendants alive as much as possible, they would have joined that feast as well.

”Shh- Chhhh!!” King Philip Marley started making involuntary sounds watching these crimson-horned creatures cutting the bellies of these sages and eating happily...

Even though he was a strong, cruel king that Ruled these lands with an iron fist for too long, he couldnʼt get himself together when thinking that this is his inescapable future...

This scene, These DEVILS.. shouldnʼt exist in this world!

He tried with all his might to remove the demonʼs hands from his face so that he could turn away from this horrific scene, but he could not move his head or even narrow his eyes.

”Why donʼt you just kill us...” A low voice caught Robinʼs eye, and his eyes fell on someone else kneeling next to Philip but looking at the ground with fear and helplessness, it was the sage Albert Marley.

*BAA* The demon standing behind Albert came down with a slap on the back of his head and spoke in a foreign language, ”Who gave you permission to speak, prisoner?”

Robin looked at Albert for a few seconds and then rolled his eyes over the long lines behind him...

About two hundred Saints from the Marley family were kneeling just like the two of them, and behind each one stood an even stronger demon ready to kill him in the blink of an eye.

Robin then looked back at Albert, ”Of course, Iʼm thinking of a good way to deal with you, you donʼt think youʼll simply get away like the clowns of the Flame Empire, right?

I donʼt have any personal enmity with those, they just want my stuff, of course, they choose the wrongest way possible and are going to pay for it, but itʼs just business I understand that, But you lot....”

”F*ck you! You have made the biggest mistake of your life! When the Flame Empireʼs forces return from their mission and the armies of the other Seven Kingdoms are formed after they know what happened here, no matter how powerful you and these things are, you will all be eliminated for sure! The whole world will hunt you down like dogs!!” King Philip shouted with all his might

Robin gestured to the Demon behind Philipʼs head to leave him, then looked him in the eye and asked, ”The WORLD will hunt us, you say? What world are you talking about?”

”Huh?” Philip, who was rubbing his neck, which had a few torn muscles after his little incident just now, looked at Robin with shock after his word..

*What world*? what kind of question was that?

Robin pointed behind him, ”You see this army? they are nothing special, There are nine like it roaming the continent now as we speak, with orders to devour everyone who is a knight or above, I have decided that level 10 will be the limit for anyone whose name isnʼt Burton from now on.

​ Oh, I almost forget the army that went toward the lands of the Duchy of Evren, they are a little different... they have the permission to devour anyone who has the Evren bloodline in his body, they had their fun, now they will repay me by making my demons stronger, So... What world were you talking about?”

”No... No No NOOOO!! YOU ARE A LIAR! You are definitely.. a liar... A LIAR!!!” Philip started to mutter in shock and then screamed, the rest of the two hundred Marley Saints looked at Robin in utter shock as well.

Albert shook his head quickly, ”No, I refuse to believe it, why would you lie like that? YOU especially canʼt do it, you spent tens of millions on charitable projects for the people in your land, you were pumping millions of gold coins into your new lands because you want people to love you... No, no, you canʼt give such orders, that way you would be the worst sinner in the history of this continent!!”

”Hmph, Do you think Iʼm so free to lie to some dead men?” Robin answered coldly and tilted his back to rest on his throne, ”Do you think I care about my reputation in front of anyone now, Your highness?”

Albert looked into Robinʼs eyes for a long time, but soon he discovered that it was the first time he had seen those eyes, he realized that he had made a mistake, this was not Robin Burton he remember, so he just involuntary muttered, ”Who... are you...?”

”Just someone who wants to start over clean.” Robin gave a half smile and replied

Albert opened his mouth slightly and then looked down with a half-focused eye, after a few seconds he gave a long sigh, smiled, and started to activate his energy….

When Robin saw this, he furrowed an eyebrow and shouted angrily, ”DONʼT YOU DARE!! If you dare commit suicide by cutting your lifeline, I will force my life energy into your body to keep you alive and ignite the flame of death in you for ten full hours, THAT GOES FOR ALL OF YOU! Your death is mine to determine, you have lost that privilege already you worms!”

When Albert and the rest of the Marley family heard this, they felt that they had already fallen into the lowest pit of Hell.

All of them, without exception, had already considered suicide if Robin ordered their slow death, only now did they realize how naive they were.

Philip looked side by side at his family, his children, grandchildren, and siblings, then looked down at the ground for a moment, before shouting at Robin, ”Then give your dogs the command to eat us already! Itʼs not like you have the power to do anything to us on your own, Why are you still prolonging this ridiculous play?!”

Robin raised his eyebrows slightly as he listened to Phillipʼs words, then stood up and signaled to the demon behind Phillip to back off, ”Congratulations to you, you have chosen your way of death... you will be killed personally at my hands.”

Philip stood with a look of anger and happiness at the same time, ”Haha you want a battle? As if I could kill you among all your dogs, but it doesnʼt matter... I hope you hold on for more than ten seconds before you run away and order me to kill, that will be fun!”

”Hmm, logical….” Robin nodded, then extended his hand and summoned his black spear from the Space Ring, and spoke in a loud voice, ”Then what do you think about this… I give you my word that if you can evade one attack from me, I will release you immediately.”
