Strongest Mage with the Lust system

Chapter 708  Shut Your Mouth

"These humans only like to present themselves as noble and righteous, but they always have been the most malicious and ruthless sort." Yshoy scoffed.

"True, they are worse than those so-called devils." Another purple-horned demon emperor chimed in. But just as his words fell, an unnerving silence enveloped the hall, though it lasted for just a split second because both Yshoy and Vigil shouted out loud at the same time, "Shut your mouth!"

The demon emperor who spoke and others looked at the duo in confusion, clearly thinking why did they suddenly get angry.

"Did I say anything wrong? Aren't the humans just like those de–" The purple-horned emperor retorted.

Bang!

However, before he could finish, Yshoy vanished, appeared in front of him, and punched his face, sending him flying back.

Boom!

As the demon emperor crashed into the building's wall, the whole wall came crashing down.

Cough!

The demon emperor coughed as he flew out from the rabble and landed in front of Yshoy. Wiping the blood from his face and fixing his crooked nose, he looked at him to see a furious and terrified look on Yshoy's face.

Immediately, the anger he was feeling vanished, and his heart trembled.

'Don't tell me…' He suddenly realized why both he and Vigil wanted him to keep quiet, and this realization chilled him to the bones. 'How is this possible!'

The other emperor present also understood what was going on, and their expressions turned pale.

Yshoy, after giving him a stern look and a heavy pat on the shoulder, looked behind him at the demons gathering outside the building due to the commotion and shouted, "No one is allowed to come near this place until we say otherwise. Now, leave."

Immediately, the gathering crowd left the place. The scarlet demons were a little hesitant, but seeing Vigil refute him, they also left.

A scarlet demon emperor then tapped his foot on the ground, and the crumbled wall rapidly reformed itself.

The hall was eerily silent for a while before Yshoy spoke up, "What are we going to do now? Those demon tribes are going to want to interfere with us."

"They can try." Vigil said, his blood-red eyes flashing with a murderous glint.

"But Patriarch, the human survivors from those kingdoms are going to come to the Green Leaf, and their mages will join the human army, which will make things more troublesome for us." A female scarlet demon emperor commented.

"She is right." Yshoy said, "Also, I don't like the fact that my people are being sacrificed uselessly. So, we need to change our tactics."

Vigil tapped his throne's armrest with his index finger before saying, "I also don't like this… But what can we do? It's our superiors' order after all."

"Just what the fuck are they thinking?" Yshoy frowned before saying, "As long as we kill the humans and maintain an advantage over them, they shouldn't complain, right? After all, these self-sacrificial tactics are there only to make the humans fear us more and give us the upper hand."

Vigil's eyes flickered, but he didn't say anything. He could understand why he was dissatisfied by this. If he were in his place, he would be dissatisfied too.

But the problem was... He was no longer sure if what Yshoy said was true because there seemed to be a hidden layer to everything.

'Just what are those tribes planning? Is it all just to take back the human continent, or is there something deeper that we can't see?' Vigil thought. If the latter was true, then things were troublesome because even they, the peak emperors, weren't aware of whatever it was. Meaning, they might be used to further those stronger tribes' goals.

Just as he was thinking this, a voice sounded from outside the building.

"My lords, may I enter? I would like to talk to you about something very important… for your tribes."

The voice belonged to Ashroth.

The demon emperors raised their brows in dissatisfaction while Yshoy grunted, "This kid is looking down on us too much. He came here despite me explicitly stating no one is allowed to come near this place."

Vigil and others also frowned. But then Vigil sighed and said, "Let's hear him. Maybe it is really something important."

"You think so?" Yshoy almost scoffed before waving his hand, causing the doors to open.

Ashroth was alone this time. Entering the hall, he gave the emperors a respectful bow before looking at Vigil, who he thought was the more sensible and tolerant person, and said, "My lord, may I ask you to completely isolate this hall, please?"

Vigil raised an eyebrow in surprise, not expecting this request because he was sure Ashroth knew there were already isolation formations in place.

"This better be worth our time; otherwise, you won't be getting out of here without punishment, unlike last time." Vigil said in a calm tone before his Aura Sphere enveloped the room. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

"You can speak now." He said,

Ashroth nodded, though he became a little nervous.

After taking a deep breath, he asked, "If you don't mind, can the monarchs spy on us now, I mean without you knowing about it?"

Every emperor's gaze flickered with surprise at his words. Even they were not sure if some monarchs were keeping watch over everything, but he seemed sure of it.

As if understanding what they were thinking, Ashroth smiled wryly, "Lord Emperors are overestimating me. I don't know if the Monarchs are watching over us. I just want to make sure no one other than you all hears what I say."

Vigil thought for a moment and said, "No one below the high stage of the Monarch realm should be able to penetrate my Aura Sphere without alerting me."

"I understand." Ashroth nodded, taking a pause to put his thoughts in order before speaking.

"My Lords, due to some reasons, I was imprisoned for a long time in my tribe. There, I was alone and had nothing to do but to cultivate and think. So, I did just that. I cultivated and thought and thought."

"I could have gone stupid from all the thinking I did, but fortunately I did not." He chuckled a little as he said this.

Yshoy became impatient and wanted to interrupt him, but Vigil gestured to him to wait, oddly interested in hearing his story.
