Chapter 315 I'm Fine
"Yet..." Billy muttered in a low voice when he heard Robin's words, he didn't find it wrong to punish them as they are safe now, but feeding them to those demons?
He had seen with his own eyes how cruel this sight is... No human being showed go through this, even those traitors.
"Tell me what you know about empires." Robin changed the subject and asked
"Heh~" Billy gave a long sigh and then continued, "In the past, after the Sacred Tree Emperor discovered the major law of plants and became the first person to discover a major law and the most powerful person on the continent, he established a large empire and he and his family controlled the whole world at that time, but he quickly He found that the place is too *tight* for them, so one day he decided to go on an exploration trip outside the boundaries of known lands...
After a few years, he came back and used the Major Plant Law to make gigantic wooden ships and then took all his family on them, and forcibly took a few other lesser families, I think they are the servants and workers or something like that, and then simply disappeared as if they didn't exist, were it not for the historical evidence of their existence, we would have thought that they were just a fantasy story...
Then the Emperor of Wind came along, then the Emperor of Water, and finally the Emperor of Flame, all of them went out to explore after proving themselves as the rulers of the known world, and after their return, they took all their family members and loyal followers' families and then disappeared on huge ships, we did not know where they are going...
Their mystery continued until the great war ear, a massive war broke out all over the known because there was no one powerful entity to rule anymore, every big family that exist wanted to take a piece of the cake, and everyone started slaughtering each other to secure some land for themselves, even our Burton family was participating heavily in that war alongside the Marley family...
After a few decades from the start of the great war, Very powerful people appeared who claimed to be from the Four Empires and that what was happening in the *Ancestor Continent* affected the serenity of the rest of the world
And they directly supported 8 families to quickly win their wars, and those eight families, later on, established the Eight Kingdoms, and then the Four Empires made some laws that the Kingdoms should obey, or else they were punished severely.
The royal families over the years have had intermittent contact with the empires and have learned a few things about them, Alfred Marley told us all he knows...
It turns out that they did not disappear and did not go to a higher world as the people thought, but rather went to other neighboring continents, undiscovered continents full of minerals, unique beasts, and an abundance of energy stones, Each and every one of them a paradise full of untapped natural resources
Those continents should have been a new sanctuary for everyone, but now each of the continents is at the disposal of just one family!!
? Alfred told us that there are 6 continents in the world, the first one the continent from which creation began and the inhabitants of empires call it the land of the ancestors, as for the four empires, each of them controls a continent alone
As for the sixth central continent, it is not yet inhabited by humans and the four empires use it as land for training their young and conducting training battles between them, and if there is an important resource in it, then a challenge among the young generation will determine the empire that takes that resource." Billy spoke in one breath
"Hmm, the Flame Empire is occupying a continent of their own, so that's where I saw Caesar and the rest being held… Do you know where the fire Empire content is exactly?" Robin asked
"No... Wait, Caesar is still alive?! That's excellent!!" Billy shook his head, then yelled
"You don't know, huh... It's okay, I have another way to know where they are exactly... Tell me, have there been any problems between the four empires during the last millennium?" Robin asked
Billy shook his head, "Not in the past Millennium and not before that either, there is simply nothing to fight over, do you imagine? One family has an entire continent at their disposal, if they lived another million years they wouldn't need anything else, why would they fight amongst themselves? I really envy them for this life, they have true peace..."
"Not for long," Robin replied.
"Excuse me..?" Billy asked when he heard this, raising his eyebrows
"Hmmm, leave them for now and tell me about the current general situation in our ancestral continent," Robin spoke of the topic
"...the general situation in the Ancestor Continent completely changed after their decision to obey the orders of the Flame Empire and attack us, We had nowhere to escape anyway so we had to take revenge as much as possible!
Almost ten years have passed since Jura was overrun, and since then my forces and I have been flying from city to city and kingdom to kingdom destroying everything that comes before our eyes. All kingdoms have fallen to 40% of their original strength during the past ten years,
We tried to attack the two capitals of the kingdoms of Oakleya and the Lying Water to uproot the Royal families there completely, but both of them fled before we arrived, so we destroyed the two capitals and fled.
we suffered a large number of losses as a result of that as well, but we did not focus much on the subject, we knew are all dead in the end, we even stooped counting our deaths a few years ago, we intended to annihilate one or two kingdoms completely before the last of us gets killed!
But you are here now, with the help of those 20,000 demons outside, we can reoccupy and re-fortify Jura City again, we can slowly grow the Burton family again and make everyone fear us once more!" Billy spoke excitedly.
But he was surprised by Robin's reply, "No, your original plan is good, I'll walk through it too."
"My original plan...?"
"Yes, I will destroy everyone first then I will think about the next stage, but there is a slight modification to your original plan... Now it will not be a suicide plan."
"You… didn't you hear what I was saying? I had 30,000 saints but we failed to completely destroy any kingdom, if we add the twenty thousand demons and the two hundred demon sages outside they will help you against one or two kingdoms that's for sure, maybe three kingdoms, but in the end, the Flame Empire will send more men, we will be greatly damaged and We will be surrounded again like what happened today...
why don't we keep our forces until we regrow our family? with you here we will have a better army and better defenses, Then we can really take revenge!" Billy said quickly
"I have a few times the number of those demons in Jura ready to head my orders, they are more than enough to eat everyone who participated in the Jura City massacre," Robin replied coldly
"Three times? This… a moment, did you just say EAT?! No no no, the appearance of those demons alone will cause panic everywhere, they are already making you look like the f*cking devil king incarnate, and now you want people from other kingdoms to see them eat their relatives under your orders?
You have to reconsider! Didn't you want to spread justice? Didn't you want to normalize the good life to make everyone love to serve us? what about the charity you started!? You will say goodbye to all of this forever if you do what you say!!" Billy panicked and spoke, he himself was still terrified of those demons even though he was on their side!
"Hehe, I was so adorable back then, huh? too adorable …" Robin laughed sarcastically and shook his head, "You don't have to worry about my petty requests like this anymore, secondly I want to feed the demons to get them stronger anyway."
"...Robin, what exactly happened to you?" Billy reached for his hand and put it on Robin's knee with an expression filled with questioning and even some sadness, this wasn't his friend!
"I'm fine... I have never been better in my life."
