A Demon's Journey

Chapter 467 Patrick's Deeds

Sam couldn't return after he entered the Boreal Mountain Bear's territory. However, he died only after killing one of the two 5 Star Beasts in the area.

Azaroth planned to have Zena leader her force and take over the Boreal Mountain Bear's territory.

All the beasts at the same rank as Zena couldn't put up a fight against her. The Crimson Lightning Phoenix Bloodline suppressed them completely.

Only the 5 Star Beast could attack Zena, but Azaroth was sure that Zena could defeat this Boreal Mountain Bear with some assistance from Frozen Spirit Foxes.

Azaroth didn't want Zena to kill these beasts. He wanted her to occupy the territory and subjugate the species.

This would allow Zena to gain valuable combat experience.

Anyway, this wasn't all. Azaroth arranged another array that connected the Elemental Aurora Valley Sect with the Sacred Ice Aurora Valley Sect.

He taught Tiana how to control this array. The purpose of this array was quite simple. It was to control the position of the Elemental Aurora Valley Sect.

Tiana could basically relocate the Elemental Aurora Valley Sect wherever she wanted. This would be one of their escape routes.

The enemy had no idea that there were two sects in this location. After destroying one, the enemy was bound to be satisfied, and it would prevent him from looking for another sect. This would temporarily save Tiana and her direct members' lives.

'The King must be waiting for Sam's report. But since there will be no report, the King will send an army to assault us,' Azaroth thought.

'I need to activate my other agents. It's time I make the King realize that he doesn't have such a firm hold over his Kingdom,' Azaroth had a devilish smile on his face as he plotted further.

Currently, Azaroth had his men implanted in two of them out of the top sects. One was Origin Sect, while the other was the Black Lake Sect

He knew that Erica was bound to support him. She couldn't disobey him due to the contract.

In this manner, Azaroth had the support of a rather powerful sect that had just destroyed another top sect.

If the Black Lake Sect went against the Royal Family of the Glerian Kingdom, the other sects that were looking for an opportunity to free themselves of the Royal Family's chains were bound to support it.

Naturally, before that, he had to give all those sects a vision that they could defeat the Royal Family.

The best way to accomplish that would be to deal massive damage to the Red Crown Sect.

Within the sects, the Red Crown Sect could be considered the Royal Family's sword. It managed to control all the various private sects within the Glerian Kingdom.

The power of this Red Crown Sect was so great that no sect dared to go against the Glerian Kingdom actively.

It was no longer a mere sect. It had become a symbol! A symbol of power and fear!

However, Azaroth anticipated that if the Red Crown Sect sustained major damage, the sects would shed their dread of it and begin to take up weapons to support him in this rebellion.

Actually, Azaroth's main motive wasn't a true rebellion. He merely wanted to create an atmosphere in the Glerian Kingdom so that the Sinyalian Kingdom would feel that this was the perfect opportunity to launch a full-scale attack.

And after the Sinyalian Kingdom launched a full-scale attack on the Glerian Kingdom, King Tryfon Rellas was bound to request a ceasefire with Azaroth.

At that moment, Azaroth would put forward an alliance with Tryfon Rellas and support the Glerian Kingdom's forces against the Sinyalian Kingdom's army.

By doing so, Azaroth could manipulate the battlefield to some extent. And since he could manipulate the battlefield to some extent, he could ensure maximum losses to both kingdoms.

There was also one more reason why Azaroth was using this scheme to force the war between these two kingdoms. He believed that if he bought enough time, his clone in the Lamhilhan Theocracy would achieve his objective and finally receive the blessings of the Royal Church.

After gaining those blessings and elevating his Celestial Ardor, Azaroth would instantly break through to the 6 Star Rank!

And once Azaroth broke through to the 6 Star Rank, no one in either of these kingdoms could defeat him!

He contacted Patrick, who was living in the main branch of the Origin Sect. The Origin Sect had suffered from a large-scale assault by the demons.

During this time, the Origin Sect had used all its members and tried to defend against the demons' attack. Fortunately, they managed to defend against the demons' assault successfully.

Patrick took advantage of the chance to amass a slew of accomplishments, and his fame skyrocketed.

The people heard of how Patrick's team appeared on the most dreadful battlefield and rescued the most people during this entire battle against the Demons.

Moreover, news of his power at the 5 Star Rank began to spread as well. After Azaroth had completely activated his Bloodline, Patrick's power had skyrocketed.

And this was displayed during his battle against the demons.

The citizens and even the other elders of the Origin Sect were filled with respect and dread for Patrick. They no longer dared to look down on him.

Even Patrick's old rival, Hugo Corlett, didn't dare to mess with him anymore. His father had died in the battle against the demons.

Hugo Corlett couldn't trust his uncles, and his father's friends seemed ready to turn on him at any moment.

Thus, Hugo Corlett left the Origin Sect as quickly as well. He divorced his wife Cara, who was actually Patrick's ex-wife.

After being divorced, Cara pursued Patrick and tried to convince him to take her back. Patrick was very disappointed as he heard Cara's requests.

He couldn't believe how this woman could change colors so easily. She was actually begging him now that Hugo Corlett had left her.

Unfortunately for Cara, Patrick was all out of pity. He wasn't interested in hearing her story or her reasons. He threw her out of his chambers.

Patrick finally realized that he no longer cared for Cara. He had truly given up on her.

Cara was forced to leave the Origin Sect, but unfortunately, she hadn't traveled very far before some bandits captured her.

After the bandits had their fun with her, they sold her to a nearby obese merchant.

Cara couldn't tolerate such a hellish life and finally committed suicide. This was the end of her rather unremarkable tale.

Anyway, Patrick was enjoying his time in the Origin Sect, building a wide network of connections with reputed figures in Origin Sect and other sects.

Even though he was enjoying his newfound reputation, he didn't dare to think of betraying Azaroth!

He knew just how he had gained this reputation. It was through Sargan's assistance!

Sargan's information network had spread to nearly the entire Glerian Kingdom. He would inform Patrick when and where to attack.

Sargan was the one who informed Patrick of the location of the demons' camps.

Patrick prepared a small force and targeted those camps, killing countless demons and accumulating great prestige.

Moreover, there were some individual parties in these areas that fought the demon groups. Sargan naturally kept track of these parties and asked Patrick to support them.

By the time Patrick's party reached the battlefield, the individual parties would have been slaughtered already, and the demons' groups would be rather tired. This was the perfect opportunity for Patrick's party to strike.

After killing those demons, Patrick made sure to take the full credit. Sargan used his information network to ensure that no one would doubt Patrick's deeds. This was how Patrick managed to become a living legend within the Origin Sect.
