A Demon's Journey

Chapter 614 Back To The Main Story

Ten years have passed since the death of Azaroth, and in this time, the continent of Frascoia has seen dramatic changes.

Many countries have expanded their territories, while others have splintered into smaller regions. During this period, a new generation of experts has risen to prominence, and among them are Azaroth's former retainers.

One of the most formidable among them is Noah, who has earned the moniker of the "Enlightened Void Sword Emperor."

His mastery of the sword has made him a force to be reckoned with, and he leads a significant faction within the most powerful human empire on the Frascoia Continent, known as the Heretical Paladins of the Great Qin Empire.

In contrast, Laura, the princess of the Elven Kingdom, has harnessed her Ancient Elven Bloodline Abilities, earning her the title of the "Legacy Inheritor of the World Tree."

Her powers have undergone a remarkable transformation, thanks to her mother, the Elf Queen's recognition.

In addition to her royal responsibilities, Laura also leads a group called the Noble Guardians, an organization that has a widespread presence across all countries.

Some even view the Noble Guardians as a quasi-religious group, as they advocate for justice and tirelessly work for the well-being of the common people.

Their commitment to fairness has earned them a stellar reputation, and even monarchs seek their favor.

Ralph's destiny has taken him on a different path, as he has been chosen as the crown prince of the Woltensian Empire.

The reason for his selection is straightforward: he inherited the legacy of one of the Divine Beasts, the Divine White Tiger.

Consequently, he now bears the title of the "Ancient Sabertooth Tiger" due to the transformation of his bloodline after inheriting the Divine White Tiger's legacy.

Tiana has become the sect matriarch of the Sacred Ice Aurora Valley Sect, a position of great influence. This sect also oversees a vassal sect known as the Elemental Aurora Valley Sect.

Her authority extends to limited nations, including the Sinyalian Kingdom, the Empire of Qian Guo, the Pinhian Republic, and the Republic of Raleroma.

It was Tiana's power as the Emperor Realm expert that allowed her to easily manage her sect. Due to her powerful and unique ice abilities, she was known as the "Sacred Aurora Ice Empress" to the world.

Tiana's sects hold the top positions in these nations, except for the Empire of Qian Guo. Her leadership has solidified her as one of the most prominent figures in her realm.

Two other remarkable leaders in this ever-changing world are Sargan and Yrellea, both of whom share a unique characteristic - they are demons.

After establishing an information network in the Sinyalian Kingdom, Azaroth instructed Sargan to return to Purgatory and assume his role as the successor to the Bach Clan.

Over the past decade, Sargan has greatly elevated the prestige of the Bach Clan by consistently defeating their rivals, the Olmer Clan.

His strength has also reached the Emperor Realm, earning him the title of the "Nether Evil Eyes Devil Emperor." He is now considered one of the major devils in Purgatory.

Sargan's information network in the Frascoia Continent has been passed down to William.

Yrellea, on the other hand, leads the renowned Misty Flower Pavilion, an enterprise that straddles the realms of entertainment and politics.

Her strength has reached the Emperor Realm, earning her the title of the "Heavenly Poison Empress".

Under her guidance, the Misty Flower Pavilion has become one of the wealthiest business enterprises in the world.

However, Yrellea's selfless support of Noah, Laura, William, and occasionally Tiana's organizations has impacted the business's profitability.

As a result, the Misty Flower Pavilion cannot claim the title of the wealthiest organization globally, despite its substantial earnings.

Last but not least, William, the final retainer accepted by Azaroth, has taken the reins of Sargan's information network and expanded it across the various nations.

His information network, aptly named the Secret Intelligence Service (SIS), boasts an unassailable presence in almost every nation, except the Empire of Qian Guo and the Great Qin Empire.

William's unique gift to see the providence of other individuals allowed him to have form connections with many individuals with impressive providence.

He possesses the most diverse range of abilities among Azaroth's retainers, earning him the moniker of the Wild Dragon Spear Emperor.

This honor was bestowed upon him due to his exceptional proficiency in spear combat and his inheritance of the true legacy of the Golden Dragon's Bloodline.

In the ever-changing world of Frascoia, these remarkable individuals have carved out their own legacies and contributed to the balance of power on the continent.

Each one of them was trying their best to enhance their powers, develop connections with powerful talents and experts, while growing their own factions to make it rise to prominence. This was all because they wished to free their master from his captivity.

Although the world thought that Azaroth was dead, each one of his retainer knew that he was still alive.

Initially, it was merely their blind faith.

However, soon, Noah heard rumors of a powerful devil god being kept in a secret and extremely powerful dungeon of the Great Qin Empire.

He was sure that this individual could be none other than his master!

In fact, his comrades also agreed with his words.

The Emperor of the Qin Empire, Qin Lei, was a man who wished to keep his Empire at the top and ensure that it ruled over all the other human nations on Frascoia Continent.

However, the Empire of Qian Guo was resisting their rule greatly. And at this moment, one of the experts of Empire of Qian Guo was advancing towards the Transcendent Saint Realm, which would allow the Empire of Qian Guo to properly resist the might of the Qin Empire and engage in a battle of hegemony!

It was due to this reason that Qin Lei hadn't killed Azaroth, when he heard about his presence and about the fact that this was a Devil God that had made his name known even two million years ago.

He wanted to acquire the knowledge and abilities that Azaroth possessed.

Thus...Qin Lei had ordered the Nine Yin Saintess to kill Azaroth's body and extract his spirit from the corpse.

This spirit was now being restrained by special artifacts, which were Spirit Restricting Chains that prevented Azaroth's spiritual body from moving.

Right now, they were employing extremely rare and powerful soul technique to extract all of the knowledge and abilities within Azaroth's mind and spirit.

Azaroth's spirit experienced great pain as this process occurred. And this process had occurred for the last ten years.

During this time, Qin Lei had managed to acquire a lot of knowledge of Azaroth that was very useful in subduing the demons and also defeating the Celestials.

Unfortunately, Qin Lei failed to find what he really wanted. Which was a way to advance to the Transcendent Saint Realm.

Just when he was wondering whether Azaroth even possessed such knowledge, the lips of Azaroth's spirit curled into a smug smile as he spoke, "…Looks like your prowess in spirit abilities is very lacking. What you have received from me is merely a drop compared to what I know. I know what you want, but you need to try a lot harder to get it."

This was actually a bluff. Azaroth truly didn't know the method that would allow a human to reach the Transcendent Saint Realm. This was because no human during his era had accomplished it.

However, Qin Lei didn't know about this fact. If he had known, he would have most certainly extinguished Azaroth's spirit by now. But he was holding onto a hope. A hope of becoming the Transcendent Saint and making himself the same as his family's ancestor and become invincible in the world.
