Chapter 119: Duped

When Ayaan's group left, only then, the people at the scene were able to breathe calmly; however, in their eyes, Ayaan was too terrifying, leaving a profound fear in their hearts. None of them would forget this day for the rest of their lives.

"Swish!"

After just a minute later, someone appeared on the messy sight. He had black hair, little dark skin and a muscular body. He was looking rather intimidating. A formless pressure appeared and covered everyone in the place. Some people weren't able to take that pressure and fell on their knees.

This chance completely horrified people on the spot. If Ayaan was here he would be able to know that he was someone at the legendary king mage level, even higher realm than the Archmage.

When the man looked at the corpses, his expression became a little strange. He didn't believe that someone would kill people this mercilessly.

In a single glance, he was able to tell that before dying someone had tortured these people. When his gaze fell on the Young Master Blood's head corpse, he again left stunned. 

"Who was so brazen to kill the people of the Demonic Army!?" shouted the man. 

Hearing the shout of the man everyone trembled in fear. They didn't know how to reply; they were just guards at this place. How would they know about the enemies of their master?

"You, come here and tell me about the people who attacked," the man pointed towards the man who was standing at the very front and told him to explain everything.

The man was the captain who argued with Ayaan. But now, when he thought about it, he felt how ignorant he was. If that man wanted to kill him, he just needed to lift his finger and he would die, just like other corpses on the ground. 

The captain looked at the man with fear and reverence and tried to explain everything, his voice was shaking with fear while his body was trembling. 

All the scenes appeared in front of him again and he trembled in fear when he remembered them.

"Three human girls and a human brat dared to be so arrogant on the Demonic Continent," at first the newcomer was stunned after hearing the story, but then, he became furious. Myriads of expression appeared on his face when he heard how someone had tortured their people and made them beg for death. 

After learning everything, the man left. He went directly towards the Royal Palace of the Phoenix City.

"Someone who could kill a peak level Archmage in a single...could it be…" the man thought something but didn't dare to think any further. If that was correct then this matter was truly sensitive which could cause catastrophe and annihilation of the Demonic Continent.

"Greetings punishment hall leader."

As the man walked in the spacious corridor of the palace, every guard greeted him. Their eyes filled with respect and reverence. He was someone everyone worshipped. Only their king was above him, he was the punishment hall leader.

After walking for an entire five minutes, he appeared in the throne room. There were many people sitting while the king was discussing some matters with them.

When people saw the Punishment Hall Leader, they fell silent.

"Greetings your majesty," the Punishment Hall Leader bowed in front of the king. 

In the entire Demonic Continent, he was the only person who didn't need to kowtow in front of the king. Therefore, everyone respected him. Furthermore, it wasn't just because of the favouritism of the king, but also, because of his strength. He was one of the pillars of the Demonic Continent. Without him, the Vermillion King Rex would never be able to destroy the Phoenix King.

"Do you have anything to report?" a dignified voice of the king sounded in the entire throne room. At the moment he was completely different from his previous boot licker self.

"My king there was a problem. I felt a powerful fluctuation and went to check…" the Punishment Hall Leader told him the entire story and fell silent.

After hearing everyone fell silent. No one dared to make any noise and everyone waited for their king to speak.

However, the king didn't express his view; instead, he turned towards the Punishment Hall Leader and said, "What do you think about this matter?"

"I don't think any ordinary human brat had the strength to kill a peak level Archmage. If you ask me, their background must be terrifying because I didn't feel the magic energy on the spot but another type of energy…" As he said, he fell silent. He didn't dare to speak any further.

"You're saying that those four youngsters are from that place?" Rex narrowed his eyes when he heard the man. He was a very shrewd man and didn't like to take many risks. He would do everything very swiftly and efficiently without letting his enemy know his plan.

Therefore, when he heard about the four youngsters of the unknown region, he felt uncomfortable. At the same time, he raised his guards.

"It's just my speculation; maybe I am wrong, I can't say for sure but after looking at the energy present on the bodies, I think they are from that place." said the Punishment Hall Leader.

"How could this be? Someone had just paid a visit to us. Then why are their other people from that place? What do they want?" Rex looked agitated and frustrated. After treating him like a servant those damn people still wanted to play with him and sent four brats to cause trouble here.

Rex was fuming with rage but he couldn't do anything. The people from that place were just too terrifying, even their children were more powerful than the old fellows here.

"If my guess is correct, those people must be here for tampering or someone must have sent them here to keep a tight watch over us. However, those people from the brothel dared to lay their eyes on those three women. They deserve their death. It's good that nothing happened to those four or I don't know if our Demonic Continent would even remain in this world," sweat appeared on his temples when he remembered the consequences of those pig's deeds.

"Now what should we? Should we find them and apologies?" Rex asked his most trusted aid.

"I don't think this is a good idea. They want to hide; so we shouldn't provoke them," said the Punishment Hall Leader.

Then continued, "I think we should kill everyone in that brothel. It might be able to lessen the anger of those people."

"Hmm, it's a good idea. They are just some lowly guards. It won't make any difference anyway. Just kill them," said Rex indifferently.

'Then I will go do it myself. I don't want anyone to leave alive," After saying that the Punishment Hall Leader left.

Rex looked towards other people in front of him and said, "I think you know what you should do. Spread those sketches everywhere. If someone was able to tell us the whereabouts of these people, they will receive a million gold coins."

"Yes, your majesty!" shouted everyone together.

Everyone looked at the four faces on the poster and went out of the throne room. Shockingly, those four faces were Ayaan and his three beautiful companions.

"Hmm, looks like these four people are rather important to those fellows. I have heard that these people entered the Heavenly Pagoda but never came out. Interesting. What is hidden deep in that pagoda that these fellows are doing everything to search for these people? Furthermore, they even don't know if they are alive or dead but they still insist on searching for those people. If I was able to find them. Maybe I would be able to get their secrets."

Rex murmured and a greedy light flickered in his eyes.

….

In an inn, there were four youngsters who were sitting together. Their faces were a little weird. In four people there was only one man. He had black hair and black skin. Matching together perfectly. However, his eyes were shining with a terrifying light which was the indication that he wasn't any ordinary person.

By his side, there were three ladies; though not beautiful, their figure was one of kind. Their skin was also black, though not as black as the man. However, all three of them had a beautiful pair of eyes which could suck anyone's soul inside them.

This was the group of Ayaan who didn't know that they had duped the king of this continent without even realising.

"Ayaan you are too evil. Now no one would be able to recognise us. This disguising technique is too amazing," said Rebecca and looked at Ayaan in adoration.

"Though they won't be able to find them; they would know we are here. They would definitely inform those people from the central continent for getting in their good book. Or maybe they would try to find us to get our secrets without informing people of the central region. If that was the case, then, hehe." 

As he said a vicious smile appeared. However, he didn't know that those idiots had destroyed the only evidence who could testify his presence on the continent.
