Lord of the Truth

"Raaaaar!!"

*Baam* *Baam* *Baam*

Their huge sizes, their filthy odor, their terrifying shapes, the tangible bloodlust… The sight of the beast army moving could only be described with one word: terrifying. This wasn’t a beast wave as he had heard, but an entire beast sea!

Robin quickly scanned what was happening below, and for a moment he wondered whether he would rather face the army of the Great Serpent Empire or this army of beasts head-on, but he couldn’t find an answer.

"You’d better step back, anyone who crosses this wall will die, anyone who touches this wall will die! As long as I’m around, this is your border!!" At this moment, Robin heard a shout from a familiar voice that caught his attention, it was Caesar!

At this moment, Caesar had two great wings of green flame, and a huge wall of black death flames stood between him and the beast army!

The Green Flame of Life greatly eased Caesar’s suffering and enabled him to create a huge wall like this to stop the advance of the beast army in this specific location where lies a Strait between two great mountains.

But of course, the wall would not extend to the horizon without end, so in order for the beasts not to scatter and try to go around the wall and climb the mountains, Caesar created several openings in the wall for the earthly beasts to try to pass through if they want, and at the head of each opening stood a warlord covered in blood who with every wave of his sword would cut off several heads.

As for the flying beasts that could crawl and all those strange beasts that easily crossed the black flame wall, they were clashing with the rest of the True Beginning Empire’s martial emperors, at this very moment, each of the emperors was fighting between three and nine beasts at the same time!

There were only two variable elements in this battle… The first was the sixty Shadow Sword Emperors, led by Theo himself, who kept appearing and disappearing in massive assassination operations to ease the fighting on Caesar and the rest.

The second was Richard who was sitting on a pile of beast corpses, looking into the eyes of a huge five-horned serpent crouching in the middle of the beast army in the back, surrounded by nine other huge beasts, each emitting a powerful aura as well, while Richard himself was busy gathering the life energy scattered from the dead beasts.

The five-horned serpent… Robin’s eyes were fixed on him for a few seconds.

That thing was terrifying, its color was a dark purple-black, its length exceeded 200 meters at the very least, its aura confirmed that it was at the peak of the Martial Emperor realm, and its eyes focused on Richard were the epitome of terror, those were not the eyes of a being willing to compromise!!

If that thing moved, it would easily be able to extinguish the wall of black flames and engage both Caesar and Richard at the same time, no, if any of the nine beasts moved they would be able to do it… but it did not move.

This was undoubtedly Durger The Devourer, but Robin wasn’t sure why he was standing there in the back, did he want to watch the new enemy that had appeared out of nowhere, or was he suspicious of the Death Flame? Or maybe the dense, turbulent life energy around Richard was making him hesitate? Whatever the reason, in all cases he wouldn’t stay calm forever.

*Baam* *Baam* *Baaaam*

Under the pressure of Durger The Devourer, the beasts continued to advance helplessly, Robin noticed the fear in some of their eyes as they approached the warlords and their inevitable death, but they advanced anyway, their fear of the Durger and his nine beasts behind them was much deeper than death by the warlords.

"…This can’t continue." Robin continued to look around to study the situation further, after about five minutes he raised his eyebrows and smiled, then shouted at Caesar, "I’m sending you back up, so use it well and don’t worry about anything else." From the same crack in space, he jumped again.

"Huh?" Leaving behind Caesar, who started searching for the source of the voice.

*Krrrr* "Leonid!" Robin shouted as soon as he returned

"I’m here, Your Excellency!" The boy quickly came bowing, and the army around Robin stepped back to give the two space.

"There’s a big battle going on where Caesar is, but there’s no rain or natural disasters there, the planet spirit doesn’t want to spoil the battle much, maybe I should thank them for that later." Robin smiled and looked around, "You’re all going to join your SUpreme General in the battle, and the point system also works on killing those beasts, so don’t be merciful to them!"

The sight of Richard gathering that dense energy from just the killing of a handful of beasts at the hands of the warlords and martial emperors was very attractive to look at, if he fed this boy well with life energy he would be a great help in the *negotiations*, where would he find a better opportunity than this?

"Long live the True Beginning Empire!" All the soldiers raised their weapons, staying hidden like this while their supreme general was fighting was too shameful.

"No, not you guys!" Robin pointed towards the Warlords and Emperors who were inside the array to rest and refine the serum, "Everyone will leave and engage the beasts, but you stay here for now, I believe we will have another fight soon."

"Yes, Your Excellency." The Emperors and Warlords were not disappointed either when they heard Robin say, "We have a fight." If they were to fight alongside the Planetary Emperor himself, they would have nothing else to regret. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Then he looked back at Leonid, "Make sure to send everyone in an organized manner for the battle, but I also want you to send a few Shadow Swords to watch for news from the armies we sent to the rest of the Great Serpent Planets, we might need support soon..."

"...The situation is bad to this extent?!" Leonid opened his eyes wide, the Supreme General, the Crown Prince, and the Planetary Emperor himself were here and yet he believed he would need support? What exactly will happen? "...Yes, Your Excellency."

As for Robin, he looked up at the sky with a slight smile, "Alright, here I am waiting, let’s play a light game until the negotiations, if I don’t break your nose then there’s no need to go, and embarrass myself with Pythor!"

The movement of the army from the Imperial Palace Military Square to the battlefield was done slowly and in an organized manner, they were moving very carefully because they were going to move to a truly raging war zone, and on the other side, Caesar knew what was going on and started organizing them to what he sees fit.

The movement of the army and its coordination to stop the expansion of the beast wave took everyone almost a whole day.

-5 days left until the negotiations day-
