I LOVE DESTROYING WORLDS' PLOT [BL]
Chapter 1667: 22.53 Third Red Star - No ScentChapter 1667: 22.53 Third Red Star - No Scent
Their plan to start baiting was quite successful, and everyone who was caught was killed and devoured by the God of Void and the World Eater. However, that isn't all of them. Somewhere in the imperial palace, especially at the throne hall, one of their heads successfully sneaks in and is in the process of taking over the king's vessel.
At the throne, the current king was choked by a man following the command of another man whose appearance was hidden under a hooded cloak.
Ugh~
"You! How come... you don't... have... s-scent!" The current king questioned.
The man strangling him snorted and said, "Why do you think we will be the same as those fools? They still think they are exalted gods, and nothing can kill them once they escape from the soul prison."
"G-Gods! You… are Gods!" The current king exclaims.
He couldn't believe that the one taking their body was a god, but they were like monsters as they stole someone else's body like a thief.
"You seem confused as to why we are taking over your body; the answer to this is simple. He wants to leave this world and return to the upper realm. Without a body, the soul will disintegrate in space, much less travel through the void," said the man who was grasping the king's neck.
The other man whose face was hidden in a hooded cloak said, "Don't waste any more time. If they notice you, getting that body will be useless."
"Yes, My Lord!"
"N-No~"
In the end, the current king of the federation had his body taken over by the ancient soul and took over the king's identity. Almost simultaneously, the two bodies confronting each other fell. The former vessel of the Ancient God fell lifeless on the ground while the body of the king slowly woke up and moved. Making a few movements of cracking bones, the current king of the federation was replaced.
He said, "This body is a bit stiff. Is it because it's older than my last vessel? Whatever, what should I do now, my lord?"
The other man in a hooded cloak spoke, "Use the masses to put pressure on the former general's territory. That place is protected by a film barrier made of water. We need to sneak inside and kill everyone. The humans in that place are mostly people from the military and the strongest in this world. What's more, the mermaid king resides in the general's mansion together with the former general and his close aides. Their bodies are the most suitable for this star."
"But how will I be able to enter? There is no way they will allow us to enter," said the king whose soul had been replaced.
"Rally the humans. To pressure a human, another human is all we need," said the other man. Before he disappeared, he said, "I will wait for you guys inside the general's territory."
The federation king said, "So, the lord is already inside, but why does he need us to support him? Is there someone dangerous inside?"
All of a sudden, a group of royal knights came to the throne hall and saw a dead assassin near their king. Of course, the scene is quite strange; seeing a dead body near the king was like saying that something happened here, and the possibility of someone exchanging their vessel for a new one cannot be ignored.
The king said, "You guys are finally here. That guy suddenly attacked this king. Clean him up!"
However, the royal knights were all vigilant after all the strange beings who kept changing their vessels were all over the place, and it is hard to differentiate them if not for their scent. The king noticed the hesitation of the knight and narrowed his eyes dangerously.
"Are you thinking that this king's soul was replaced? If so, smell me! I will not be easily defeated by something like those unknown things!" Declared the king of the federation.
The royal knights did as they were tasked to, and the royal knight's captain approached the king with his permission to check if he was possessed or not. Only after this was done that the captain stated that there was nothing wrong with their king. Only then did the royal knights follow the king's command and take away the corpse near his throne.
The king suddenly sent out a decree. "Send my decree to all the nobles. Come to the palace as this king had something to say. This is a royal decree!"
The knights of the royal family fell on their knees and saluted the king. The moment they left the hall, they all spread the news and passed the royal decree from their king about summoning the nobles to the imperial palace.
On the other hand, at the marketplace...
After everything inside the domain of ice was killed, Hei Anjing suddenly looked in the direction of the imperial palace and smiled a bit. Once his lover and the World Eater finished devouring the souls of the ancient gods, the dome of ice melted and turned into a pool of water. The corpses underneath their feet were frozen, then melted, turning into a mist of blood. The humans who were watching from outside the domain stared at them with speechless expressions on their faces.
Even though they knew that they were saved, they still did not feel it was safe to approach these three men. Among the three, two are not humans, and the last one is their former general, who abandoned them.
The World Eater asked, "Do you think that's all of them?"
"Did you not count how many souls escaped, old man?" asked the God of Void.
The World Eater said, "Who would count while one is busy eating? Whatever, if there are still some that remain on land, the one from the sea would attack once again to clean it up. Anyway, I need time to digest. See you later~"
Not caring for something else, the world eater took his leave, as he said. He disappeared on the spot, leaving only a drop of water in his place. The humans in the area were dumbfounded. Hei Anjing didn't mind that An Shizhe left them behind.
He grabs Ye Xiajie's hand and says, "A'Xia. Let's go home."
The former general ignored their eyes on them and kissed his sweetheart on his forehead and said, "Alright. Let's go home."
The two of them also teleported on the spot, seeing that the people tried to stop them for a moment, but it was already too late to touch them, and they disappeared on the spot. However, at the last moment before the couple teleported, Hei Anjing saw the kind uncle who wanted to give him candy for free. He smiles at him and waves his hand in a friendly manner.
Back to the General's Mansion...
Hei Anjing and Ye Xiajie were welcomed by their subordinates. Though these guys didn't dare to come out whenever the World Eater was around, now that the scary figure was gone, they all gathered around the couple.
Greene asked, "Is he gone?"
"Why are you so scared? He won't harm you. You are my friend," said the God of Destruction.
Greene said, "Well, the fear is instinctive. His aura and presence alone are overwhelming for us. If he lives in Vearth, even those arrogant high gods won't dare come out of their lairs."
"He will not live in Vearth even if he ascended. They will most likely live somewhere quiet and away from the others. After all, they were betrayed, used, and harmed by the ancient gods who were supposed to revere them," said Hei Anjing.
Warden Yun Ming said, "Like the Ancient God of Origin and the Ancient God of End, they live somewhere away from the others. Ancient gods affect those gods weaker than they are. They will most likely find another star to live on."
"I heard that ever since the Ancient God of Chaos appeared, the presence of the Ancient God of Origin had disappeared from Vearth as well," said the Chief Warden.
Xiong asked, "Are they leaving together then? Those two are parents and child, right?"
"Yes. But living together might not be possible. The Origin and the End hated the World Eater. They are also the cause of deaths of the beings Hunluan deemed as important people. If the World Eater meets them, he will most likely devour them on the spot," said the God of Destruction.
Lang said, "The problems of the Ancient Gods had nothing to do with us. Let's just complete the mission as something is giving me a bad vibe."
Greene and Xiong frowned when they heard their lover say that. After all, between the three of them, the one with the sharpest instinct for danger had always been Lang. It can be said he had always been sensitive to this type of thing, and after becoming a god, this ability had gotten stronger.
Chief Warden, who knew about the skills of his friends, asked, "Explain it more if you could, Lang."
"The sea is listless, but the danger I am feeling is not from there, but something is about to come inside," said Lang.
The God of Void said, "Something is about to happen in this territory."
