Chapter 274: Meeting of nobles

As there was no one to activate the traps in the hidden passage, Xue Ren and Miya quickly arrived in the Violae Empire's capital... It was currently night and dark violet sky was darker than ever before... However, the lights from various buildings enlightened the whole city giving it its own charm.

And he himself felt like this dark climate was not that bad.

"Show me the way to your emperor."

""Yes, Lord.""

The guards responded loyally as Xue Ren already had corrupted some of them... He had small group of ten guards ready to die for him... Moving between the castle's corridors, Xue Ren spotted a man who seemed to move in the same direction as him.

"Who are you? Why are you escorting this man?"

It was one of the nobles here. He had his own emblem and his guards around him proudly wore it as they followed their master. All of them were sending strange looks at guards around Xue Ren... They definitely would be scared if they could see the eyes of those guards though.

Good thing that they had helmets!

"And who might you be? You see, I am new here~~"

"Hah? You don't know me, The great noble, Esgne?!"

"Nope."

Esgne shook his head with disappointment! He began to believe that Xue Ren might be newly promoted noble from the borders of their proud empire! Because of that, he began thinking about the ways to drag him into his circle of nobilities!

"Listen. The capital isn't like your border where you simply have to watch out for humans. Here, you have to watch out for everyone including your friends and loved ones!"

"Thanks for advice."

"No problem, but I would like to tell you more."

The noble began speaking how hard it is to rise without any proper support. It took him a while, then he ended with benefits of working together with him. Xue Ren smiled as it was chance to corrupt more nobles in one swift move!

"I will remember your words, Mr. Esgne."

"That's good. Then, I will excuse myself."

"Yes, see you."

This way, Xue Ren got information about meeting of nobles. Esgne planned to bring all his friends to show the power of his circle. Xue Ren was just one of many to show his prestige and high status... Turning around to Miya...

"He didn't know about your identity."

"I spent most of my time with father alone after all."

Xue Ren revealed more of his affection after such words, not caring about guards whose minds were already broken. Hugging her for a while, Miya slowly asked to continue going forward... She was indeed eager to meet her father.

-

During their walk, they had met yet another parties, but Xue Ren already had a way to stop them from bothering him as he told the name of circle he has 'joined'. It wouldn't be good to began fighting here with their purpsose.

He himself was doing his best to keep his demoon bloodline in check and keep appropriate distance from other demons... Soon, the party entered the deep basement where the simple bed and desk was the only sight here!

"Father!"

Miya screamed as her father looked truly pitiful! His skin was so withered as if without any vitality, but this man was still going on! He fought with everything he had absorbing the world's energies which were quite bad for demon.

After all, this wasn't Hell. And even though demons had done some changes to the land here, it was still tightly mixed with world's true nature.

"Watch out for any intruders."

""Yes, Lord.""

As the guards took the positions to watch over the basement, Xue Ren took the appropriate distance before looking at the emperor. He was Miya's father, so it would be too painful for her if her father who was already hurted too much by poison, got his mind broken as well.

"Mi-ya... wh-y..."

"It's fine, Husband is here..."

Husband? The Emperor lightly thought as he peeked at Xue Ren with his lifeless eyes... The moment he saw those black eyes with dark violet cracks, he felt like dying... That's fucking black devil right here!

He had killed countless demons and humans... How could his innocent Miya fall into his hands?!

The Emperor was clearly not able to properly think as he coughed and choked with his own blood. His withered hands were going for Miya's as if he wanted to touch her for last time.

And Xue Ren himself couldn't care less about this man. Because of his demon bloodline, he already had found out about hell's energy that was like bug coursing throughout his whole body! It was moving around and somehow increasing the emperor's hell's energy. Then, it went straight into his heart which meant that the time for harvest has come.

"Arghhhhhhhhhhh!"

"Hmmm... First... Let's try to corrupt it."

Focusing his attention on bug, Xue Ren felt like simply ordering it to leave the body of the emperor. Once the bug felt Xue Ren's eyes directly piercing through him, it began wriggling, then soon, marched forward to leave the emperor's body!

Pop! It popped out, squealing 'Lord! Lord! Lord!'

"What the fuck, even bugs can speak?"

Splash! Xue Ren stomped the bug made from 50th pillar's hell's energy several times as if he had to take care of it thoroughly! But the truth was that he simply got too disgusted by its speech!

"Father! No! Father! Uweeeeeee!"

One could think that everything is going to go nicely now, but the emperor's vitality suffered yet another damage as the bug left his body! Shivering like sick person he is, the emperor's eyes slowly began closing as death's scythe already was slowly cutting his neck.

"Giant's bodies were strong... Their skeletons were the embodiment of vitality..."

Xue Ren thought, then took out the bottle with giant's bloodline... Since the emperor is dying, he might as well try to save him with this bloodline! Not waiting for Miya or her father approval, Xue Ren injected the blood that shook the whole body of the emperor.

"Arghhhhhhhhh! Fuuuuuuck! Arghhhhhhh!"

The Emperor roared once again! However, this time, he seemed more lively!
