Lord of the Truth

Chapter 715  The North after the storm

Robin sat in front of his adopted sonʼs body, staring at him from hair to toe, and then he sighed in relief ʼRichard did well!ʼ

Robin was watching the battle live, and of course, he saw the suicidal explosion that Peon carried out. At that time, he and Caesar revolted when they sensed what this reckless person wanted to do, but it was too late.

Everything happened too fast, whether the explosion or the start of the treatment, everything ended within two or three seconds when they woke up from the shock and decided to Call an immediate transition array, Richard had already begun treating his brother, so Robin stopped the array and shouted at Caesar to sit in his place again and leave the matter to Richard, so the two of them sat down again, angry and worried... And somehow relieved.

Angry at their helplessness, they both deeply hated the fact that Richard had asked to take care of everything himself and that they could only intervene in an irreversible situation, and they worried for Peonʼs fate who seemed to have set foot in the world of the dead, but also relief that Richard was there... There was no person in the entire Empire who could have saved Peun at that moment except Richard, and indeed they were not disappointed. Richard immediately began pumping a huge amount of life energy into his body, and this is the result in front of his eyes...

”The nearby wind explosion caused the skin and flesh to be torn from the front side of his body and broke all of his ribs. Those broken ribs stabbed his internal organs such as the lungs, heart, stomach, and intestines. This is in addition to the fractures in his entire body and damage to the rest of his internal organs due to the pressure, but all of this has completely disappeared...” Robin muttered as he watched Peonʼs condition. Even the scars on his face disappeared and he returned to being a handsome boy, If the treatment had been delayed a few more seconds or if Richard had not been there, Peon would have undoubtedly died. The quick treatment made his body capable of containing a living soul again, ” but... Why havenʼt you woken up yet?” Robin furrowed his eyebrows, then placed his hand on Peonʼs forehead, then closed his eyes

”So thatʼs how it is...” Robin easily managed to find Peonʼs Soul Domain.

 The domain was shattered like a pane of glass that fell to the ground. The good thing is that it was not completely broken or it would have caused immediate death.

Then he found his way through one of the cracks and was able to enter, and quickly found Peonʼs primal soul...

A tiny version of Peon made of white smoke, it is exactly as Robin was not too long ago. What is new is that the primal soul was unconsciously lying on the floor of the Soul Domain, its size noticeably decreasing, and Robin saw for himself that energy seeping in and out of the cracks in the Soul Domain.

Robin pulled his soul out again and frowned, Peonʼs soul Domin had reached the point of decay, this wasnʼt something the soul replenishing technique could handle, technically he was in the throes of death!

”.....” Robin looked at Peonʼs face for several minutes with his eyebrows furrowed and his feet moving slightly, then he hit his thighs and shouted, ”Damn it, sitting wonʼt help, even though I havenʼt tried it before, Iʼll give it a try!”

Then he pointed towards one of the Demon Kings and shouted at him, ”Huey, bring me one of the giants. The closest one you can find will do .”

*Paa*

After a while, two Demons came and threw a giant in front of Robin. The giant was trembling and crying as he opened his eyes to the last of them. His right palm with his fingers and even his wrist were missing. A large piece of flesh from his right thigh was also not there.

”Tsk~” Robin didnʼt know how to feel about that. It was clear that the giant in front of him was psychologically traumatized because he was eaten alive, and an even greater shock because he was certain that this would happen to him forever without a savior. ”...the punishment is of the kind of work. Donʼt blame me for making you taste your own medicine,” then Robin extended one hand and placed it on the giantʼs head, and the other hand he placed on Peonʼs head.

The northern region was turned upside down after that day

The appearance of the legendary Holak on the back of Crixus The Great was breathtaking enough, but his announcement that he had information about the arrival of an outside invasion seeking to destroy the world plunged the entire northern region into great silence... but not chaos.

If it had been Robin or the Shadow Swords who had revealed this secret, the northern region would have automatically entered the world-end mode. Each tribe would close in on themselves, launch their own investigations, and begin collecting supplies within their walls, and perhaps searching for places to hide, but in the presence of an entity like Holak, they all automatically pinned their hopes on him

Before anything else, Holak took the leaders of all the tribes on Crixusʼs back and they flew together towards the central region. There they saw destruction and saw the ongoing battle between a huge army made up of low beings accompanied by giants side by side, against a strange race on the other side that they had no knowledge of, they noticed that this race had Martial Emperors and they had some kind of a huge ship circling the city that they had never seen something like it before... They are definitely aliens!

When some of them tried to intervene to kill everyone in the city in a fit of anger, Holak stopped them and gave them the same reasons that Robin gave him, then told them that the real army of invaders was coming and that they had to ally with each other and with the settlements of lower beings if they wanted the world to survive.

Then he went away...

The tribal leaders stopped him and began begging him to stay and lead them in the war, but he categorically refused. Only after they clung to his feet and arms and some of them cried in front of him, his heart softened and he decided to take on this heavy position.

His first decision after his inauguration as King of the North was to begin organizing a unified army. He announced to all the tribes that their current system would not be useful in confronting this entity called a planetary empire. He also called on all the settlements to meet and discuss the possibility of an alliance. Unexpectedly, the meeting went very easily and All the settlements agreed to take Holak as a leader as well, which astonished the eleven tribes and made Holak even greater in their eyes.

Immediately after that, Holak announced something bigger... He said that he would search for the Third Heavenʼs Chosen and ally with him to remove the danger from their world. And indeed, immediately afterward, he announced that he had been able to meet him and that the northern region would enter into an alliance with the Third Heavenʼs Chosen and the rest of the regions on the planet that are already under his influence in order to eliminate the aliens

Normally, everyone in the North would have been terrified upon hearing the information that the Third Heavenʼs Chosen had already managed to control the rest of the regions of the planet, but hearing the news from Holak like this made them thank their good luck that the entire planet had already united in the coming dangerous battle, and they thanked Heaven for the presence of the Third Heavenʼs Chosen and the Great Holak!
