A Demon's Journey

Chapter 512 Distinct Customs

William managed to resolve Ralph's depression. Noah and Sargan were rather grateful to him. Ralph was a valuable comrade to them, and they were quite worried about him. Even Laura, Yrellea, and Tiana thanked him earnestly.

Around this moment, Ralph, Noah, and Sargan were staying in a hidden clan along with William. This daughter of the hidden clan's chief was William's fiancé. So, William could be considered the future owner of this hidden clan.

All the people in the hidden clan seemed to hold genuine respect for William. It had been thousands of years since someone managed to clear all the trials set by their Ancestors and inherit their Ancestors' True Legacy.

They were a little annoyed that they couldn't monopolize William since he had inherited the True Legacy of another two hidden clans. These hidden clans were almost equal in strength and had decided to share William.

Thus, William had gained a small harem. His wives were all nation-toppling beauties who could be compared to Aria and Luna. They possessed an impressive figure and an extraordinary talent in cultivation that would be hardly found in the entire Glerian Kingdom.

Anny Macher belonged to the Macher Clan and possessed an impressive talent in body cultivation art. She could even crush the powerful beasts with her pure physique.

Vivi Platz belonged to the Platz Clan, and she was rather gifted with an exceptionally powerful Gold Element and great instinctive control over it.

Similar to Vivi Platz, Regina Lerch possessed a rather powerful Metal Element and intuitive control over it.

The trio of fiancés seemed to be a match made in heaven. Their abilities complimented William's, and they hit it off as soon as they met.

Despite their animosity toward each other, the three did not fight to alleviate William's tension. They were madly in love with him and didn't want to hurt him.

They knew he had a rather simple yet kind outlook and fell for him instantly. No one wished to leave his side.

Thus, the four of them lived together in Macher Clan. Noah seemed to have taken a liking to the training schedule in Macher Clan and followed it earnestly.

Noah and the Macher Clan hit it off right away due to his commitment to his training. The Machen Clan members trained extra hard to match Noah's training.

William sweat-dropped at the scenario as he noticed his in-laws and comrades getting along so well.

His fiancés were good friends with Luna and Aria.  The five of them had formed a group and seemed to love gossiping with each other.

Luna and Aria briefed the other three about their exploits, while William's fiancés briefed them about their lifestyle in their respective clans.

Each clan had a distinct way of living and was rather interesting. The Macher Clan seemed to be grateful for nature and used a part of their income to buy some rich elemental crystals and let them dissipate slowly.

The Platz Clan didn't seem to care much about nature and were more focused on living their individual lives comfortably. They considered Gold Element the perfect element and used it to make their lives better. They held three Gold Mines that held enough gold to sustain a kingdom for a long time.

They emphasized donating their earnings to the poor and vulnerable. This was considered a very noble cause within the Platz Clan.

Meanwhile, the Lerch Clan had proclaimed their main house as the God's Envoys and received gifts from the branch family at the end of each year. The main house would then go on to buy many weapons and recruit warriors in their clan.

Because of this, the Lerch Clan was the most powerful hidden clan in this area.

The Platz Clan wasn't too weak. If they felt threatened, they would use all their Gold and spend it on recruiting mercenaries and buying weapons or armors. Thus, gaining an instant combat power boost. However, they would only do this in desperate times.

The Lerch Clan and the Platz Clan had a relationship filled with animosity. In the past thousands of years, the Platz Clan had gained an instant combat power boost to fight against the Lerch Clan only three times. And it has already been more than 600 years since they last took such an action.

This proved that the relations between the two clans were getting better.

The Lerch Clan never dared to go against the Macher Clan. This was because the Macher Clan was considered crazy. If someone dared to annoy them, they would go all out against their enemy.

The Lerch Clan didn't fear enemies, but they did fear a crazy enemy. The Macher Clan would do anything to destroy the Lerch Clan, even if they were being destroyed as a consequence.

And currently, the three clans were tied together through William. They were all very satisfied with William. He was a handsome, smart, strong, and dedicated fellow. Moreover, he treated their princesses just right.

They were quite happy to meet William's comrades. Noah had brought his group, the Heretical Paladins, along with him. Ralph had brought a tiny group of ten warriors with him. Meanwhile, Sargan had come alone.

They were all training as hard as they could and awaiting Azaroth's further orders.

They only received the orders to remain in the Macher Clan for now. Azaroth didn't require their assistance.

Soon, Azaroth gave Yrellea, Laura, and Tiana the same order. Laura had to leave her Noble Guardians group by faking her death.

She had to leave behind a clone of exact same appearance. For this, Azaroth ordered her to meet up with him.

He still needed to gather more Deathly Energy. And for that, he required another two weeks. Azaroth planned to keep the preparations for a clone's creation ready.

Unlike his Nudar clone, the Spiritual Energy would return to Laura's body once this clone died. Azaroth was unable to retrieve his spiritual energy after Nudar's death because he was concerned that the Radiant God's Will had marked it somehow. If so, he would have been a live target for the Celestials.

It took Laura one week to reach Azaroth's spot with her Noble Guardians. The two met in secret, and Azaroth started the procedure of creating her clone.

It was the clone that joined the Noble Guardians while the true Laura stayed with Azaroth. The Noble Guardians departed from the region soon and were off to assisting citizens in another part of the Glerian Kingdom.

Meanwhile, Azaroth and Laura had sex day and night. She was taking care of Azaroth's carnal desires by turning into his sex toy.

After three days, Azaroth ordered Laura to go to the Eastern Mountain Range of the Glerian Kingdom.

Yrellea and Tiana had already left for the Macher Clan. However, the orders they received were slightly different from Laura's.

There was a specific reason behind that. This was because Yrellea and Tiana's organizations could work without them, while Laura's Noble Guardians group couldn't. Moreover, he wanted to make the Noble Guardians utterly remorseful and follow Laura's vision until their death.

This was only possible through Laura's death!

Yrellea received an order that she had to bring a very small group of loyal and powerful subordinates. Thus, Yrellea brought like 10 subordinates.

Meanwhile, Tiana received an order to come with Helena and Iris while leaving the rest in the main branch to manage the sect. They would be given a Voice Transmission Array Stone to contact Azaroth. But that was all.

Azaroth delivered these commands to his subordinates because he was anxious. Every day, the terrible sensation he was feeling grew worse. He wanted to safeguard his retainers from whatever thing was targeting him.

The hidden clan's array would prevent even a God from sensing his retainers. They should be safe there.
