Armipotent

Tang Shaoyang briefed Kirin on what she should do next. The latter hesitated for a moment before she accepted the task. She no longer had the right to refuse this man's order even if she did not want to get involved with the forest's affair.

"After you subdue the Dark Tribe, Orlean will lead you to me." After saying that, he turned toward the Demon Prince and nodded his head. He entrusted the task to Orlean since the demon was a prince, and he must know a lot of stuff to manage the Dark Tribe. "I will leave the Dark Tribe in your care, Orlean."

"Leave it to me, My Lord. I will not disappoint you." The Demon Prince bowed his head.

Tang Shaoyang nodded his head. He was about to use his skill until two shadows rushed toward his shoulder. Greed hopped on his left shoulder while Wrath landed on his right shoulder. He looked toward Greed weirdly, but the latter ignored the gaze and laid down on his shoulder instead. The cat was missing in the battle, but then Green returned in a happy mood.

"I am leaving." Tang Shaoyang shook his head and looked toward the Demon Prince before activating his skill, [Spirit Switch]. He swapped his position with one of the septuplets Troll Warlord, Togin.

Kalliyan looked at her Master, wondering where he would go to. In the blink of an eye, she witnessed Her Master disappeared and was replaced by a monster. The monster looked around in confusion, but the monster seemed to recognize the Demon Prince. Not long after that, the monster also disappeared.

The Kirin had a lot of questions in her head, but she was curious about many things. Such as what happened just now? What kind of monster was that? And where did her Master go? While she was in a daze, Orlean the Demon Prince came over. "Get your children down, and let's wrap this thing quickly. We have to help Lord Tang Shaoyang to take over the Gigante Forest."

Kalliyan snapped out of his trance and glanced at the Demon Prince. Her eyes showed hostility at the sight of the demon, but she could do nothing about it. 'Wait, Demon? Does that mean my Master come from Underworld?'

No one identified where the Demon came from, so people called that the demon came from the Underworld, which she believed. 'This is ironic. I fought the Demon in the great war, and now I become their underlings.' She recalled the war in the past and shook her head. She did not care about the world, and even she had to bow to a Demon. What mattered to her was her newborns. She did not care about the others.

"If may I know, where does Lord Tang Shaoyang come from? Do you guys come from the Underworld?" Kalliyan opened her mouth and asked the Demon Prince, who had his back on her.

Orlean turned around, and his red eyes met with The Kirin's gaze. "I don't know why you are asking that, and I don't care either what's your intention. If Lord Tang Shaoyang does not tell you anything about that, then I will tell you nothing. This is just a reminder for you, while Lord Tang Shaoyang trusted you, you don't have our trust yet. Just do what Lord Tang Shaoyang asked you to, and ask nothing."

Kalliyan did not know why the demon was so unfriendly toward her. 'Did he notice my hostility? I thought I kept on check on it so that he won't notice.' She was not aware that Tang Shaoyang was almost hurt because of her.

The early fight against the Green Sky Serpent was where Suvan managed to trick Zara the Angel of Death to protect her, leaving Tang Shaoyang, who was undergoing transformation to be defenseless.

The Demon Prince blamed The Kirin as he thought the sacrifice was not worth it, and he would instead let the Kirin died than getting Lord Tang Shaoyang hurt. Orlean turned around, heading toward the surrendered Elite Force.

Kalliyan gazed at the demon's back. If it were before, she would kill the demon without a doubt for acting disrespectful like that. But she was not in the position to do so, not with her current status. The Kirin let out a sigh and went up to her lair to get her newborns.

'It's fortunate that the task is quite easy. Since Suvan is dead, no one is a threat to my life.' The Kirin thought to herself. It sounded arrogant, but that was the fact. Not even The Elven and the Moonlight Tribe dared to confront her, so she was safe if it was just to subdue the remaining Dark Tribe. 'It will be different if he asked me to conquer the continent with him.'

Tang Shaoyang's vision changed as he suddenly appeared next to the six Troll Warlords. At the sight of their Master, the six Troll Warlords knelt. "We greet the Great Lord."

"There's no need for the formality since we are in a war right now." Tang Shaoyang waved his hand at the six Troll Warlords and scanned the surroundings. He was in the middle of the forest, and the Troll Warlords seemed to be in the night watch as the others were resting.

He then looked at the six Troll Warlords. "Which one of you, Rogin?" The six Troll Warlords exactly looked at the same. Their faces and their armors and weapons were the same, and it was hard to identify each one of them.

Rogin stepped out as he raised his head. "I am Rogin, My Lord. Do you need something from me?" The Troll Warlord bowed his head. Despite being a monster, they acted carefully and cautiously around him, not crude like the other monsters.

"Lead me to Aki!" Tang Shaoyang wanted to meet Aki as soon as possible, and he wanted to know how far they were from the Beast Coven. The next battle against the Beast Coven would be the second step to conquer the Gigante Forest.
