Chapter 209 The Mysterious Man
"…"
However, after realizing that there was really nothing, he moved back with the rest, and decided to not overthink it for the moment…
Of course, although there was no physical object there, there was indeed a pair of eyes watching over them.
The figure of a pale man with silver hair, wrinkles over his face, and purple-red eyes looked into a crystal ball, as if he were pondering something.
His robes were black and purple, with several eyes engraved on them made out of golden-colored threads.
He looked at the crystal orb expressionlessly…
"Hah… To think you would get to free her from her shackles in such a way… Ninhursag… You\'ve always been a hopeless fool. A woman shackled to stupid and senseless traditions…" he said.
He began walking around the room where he was, as he moved outside, finding several green-skinned goblins, orcs, and trolls moving around, arming themselves, wielding all sorts of weapons, and more.
There were several Goblin Champions, and even Orcs and Trolls too, which were variants of Green Skins with a power comparable to champions… if not greater.
"I don\'t mind if you try to escape, but you\'re surely not going to just escape, don\'t you?" He sighed. "Despite all your talk about being the heroes of the people and all of that bullshit… You\'re probably still going to fight somehow… I know you way too well, Allan, Shade, Nepheline, Faylen… You got kids now, but are you capable of completely ignoring the orders from your gods? I don\'t think so…."
The man smiled sadistically, as he looked into his old hand, gray and purple-colored energies began to gather around, as an item suddenly materialized, it looked like a compass which had a small holographic map atop of it.
Within the map, there was a small, red-colored dot, shining brightly… this was his goal, the precious item made by the gods, the relic left from the past, the Core.
"I have already grown desperate, you see…" he said. "My magic is slowly taking away my life… I require sustenance, and this core is perfect for it… Don\'t worry, as long as you don\'t come at me, I won\'t touch you nor your kids… For old time\'s sake…"
The man began to walk around the camp, slowly moving towards a large tent where a gigantic mammoth-like monster was resting at the side, while being feed large quantities of vegetation by the green skins.
"After all… The people… Those people don\'t have much time either…" he sighed.
He walked inside of the large tent, finding a tall, blue-skinned man, his physique was akin to that of a tall Goblin Champion, but his face was handsome like that of a young human adult, except from the two enormous black horns spiraling upwards, and that big blue jewel in the middle of his forehead shining brightly,
The blue-skinned demon emanated a strong aura of pure darkness, making even the female green skins serving him food tremble in fear as they offered him fruits, meat, and liquor.
"Ah, my good friend… How is the world\'s greatest traitor doing?" asked the blue-skinned man. "You\'re ready to kill them now?"
"I told you I wasn\'t here to kill anybody. That\'s on your own." Said the man. "You\'re the one that\'s here for revenge, I am here for the Core, you bring the troops, and I have the means to move you here, that was the deal."
The blue-skinned demon sighed as he waved his head.
"Man, you\'re such a strict guy…" he sighed. "I am joking, come on… We are friends. Friends always joke between one another."
"…I don\'t consider myself your friend." Said the man. "But think whatever you want. I have to recognize it… your kin have an excellent ability to control green skin…"
The blue-skinned demon began to laugh, as he threw away the food they were offering to him, the female green skins screamed in fear as they moved away. The man ignored them completely as he raised a large cup with wine.
"Right?! Our kin were born to be kings! Just with a thought, I can make these women strip." He said. As all the girls suddenly began to undress themselves and stripped bare naked in front of him…
"Hahaha! See? Hmm! Such nice ass!" he said. "See? And with another thought, I can make them all dance for me, and I can also just make all those big and stupid guys outside fight to the death!"
He demon grabbed the butt of the girls around him as he moved them near him, kissing their necks and licking their faces. He was truly an aberrant being.
The man in front of him squinted his eyes, finding this man just as horrendous as he thought he would be. Anyone from this family of demons was just a sick bastard…
"You\'re a barbarian…" he said.
"But you need me!" said the blue demon, while smiling and offering a cup of wine to the man.
"Come, friend. Let\'s enjoy these young girls." He said. "I am sure you need to spend your virginity card eventually, how about doing it with some premium beauties like these? These are the prettiest girl in the entire tribe…"
"…I am not interested in your mundane pleasures." Said the man, closing his eyes. "Just remember that in a bit less than a week, we\'ll act. For now, I shall go to my room and do some meditation until then."
"And there he goes… What a boring man is he, isn\'t he?" asked the blue demon, looking back at the girls.
The man walked back to his tent, feeling disgusted with himself that he would need to cooperate with those that once were his enemies, with those he once desired to kill the most to save the world…
But at the end, he was being forced to strive from the path of righteousness…
…Because it didn\'t yield any results.
"I will save all of you… Don\'t worry… Even if I have to nasty my hands…" he thought to himself.
