Chapter 790: Last chance

Seeing the white flames touching the metallic tablet made the killing intent in Holak's eyes fade in an instant, "What the hell are you doing, you reckless bastard? If you destroy the tablet, there will be no need to keep my promise to protect the North. I can send my men to attack your forces and perhaps find a compromise with your snakelings, have you gone mad?!"

"Didn't you threaten to do the same anyway? Since you promised to protect the North, you simply won't allow anyone to reach it in the first place, hah? What a genius you are! I'd rather destroy the tablet and have us be better enemies!" Robin shouted so angrily that Zara noticed him, "Listen, I admit that my life has never been smooth and that I always face problems and disasters, but in the end, I always win! If I take you as an open enemy today, even if my entire army is annihilated, I will make sure to burn you at the stake one day, are my words clear? If I am not clear enough, respond with one word, ANY F*CKING WORD." The flame intensified under the tablet

"..." Holak for the first time had nothing to say. Any word he said now might make Robin even more angry. He just wanted some additional benefits, he definitely didn't want to make Robin outright enemy!

"Good, looks like there's still hope for you." *Shoo* Robin extinguished the white flame, returned the Oath Tablet to his space ring and the smile returned to his face, "I will keep the tablet with me intact for a week. If something, anything, stops the pursuit for the week, I will destroy the tablet and stick around in Nihari permanently, I will make it my job to torment you. Those beasts you wanted to send to destroy my men, I advise you to send them to help instead."

"...Remember what happened today." For the first time in thousands of years, he felt this anger and humiliation.

"Eat shit." Robin cut off communication with Holak with this phrase, spat on the ground *Tphuu*, then shouted at his soldiers, "Why aren't we finished yet? Nail those bastard already, hurry up!!"

Within the spirit realm of planet Nihari--

With big, shining eyes and a small, smiling mouth, the planet spirit stared at Robin's annoyed figure as she muttered, "Ah~ Decisive, strong, majestic, and intelligent, have such powerful forces while he's still young... Only someone like this deserves to be my owner!" "

Next to her, Holak slowly wrapped his neck and looked at her for a few seconds in surprise, "...I'm literally right here, don't you have any respect, you little bitch?"

"Well, you can't blame me. You don't know anything about respect either, as they say, ~Like owner, like servent right? hehe." The planet spirit laughed and then took a turn around Holak's soul body, "I don't know if I, as your temporary follower, should advise you not to confront him, or as a searcher for the perfect owner, I should ignite a spark between you two to make him kill you and refine me. This is too exhausting.."

"Even you, Neri? You're all underestimating me too much." Holak clenched both fists.

"Don't get me wrong, no one knows how strong you are more than me. In the entire young planetary belt, it is difficult to find someone to entertain you in a fight, but..." The planet spirit rumbled for a moment, then stopped and went back to looking at Robin's picture, "That woman is much stronger than you and he still dares to provoke her. I don't know if he has a hidden power that I don't know about, or if he has a stronger supporter... Either way, there is something scary about him. You are strong buddy, but he's playing on another level."

"What woman? What supporter?!" Holak turned to her quickly, forgetting his anger in an instant as usual.

"Unfortunately, I can't say more, and I won't interfere in your next move. But as my temporary owner, I'll tell you one thing... Choose wisely."

After cutting off contact with Holak, Robin returned to observing the two remaining battlefields without worrying about anything else. His plan to direct them north is his last and only lifeline. If Holak actually betrays him and stops the pursuit midway, there is nothing he can do about it, so instead of waiting anxiously, Robin chooses to ignore this other possibility and focus on the possibility of Holak choosing the path he lives on.

Even at this moment, Robin still could not find it within himself to be angry towards Holak. The fool knew nothing about malice. He told him with his own mouth that he intended to stop his forces before they reached the North!

Robin smiled and shook his head. Whatever Holak chose would make the next couple of days interesting.

Quickly three hours passed---

After the pursuit began, there was no longer any momentum in the battles around the *Safe City*... The True Beginning Imperial forces continued to tense their grip on their enemies and slowly tighten the noose in order to avoid losses in their ranks as much as possible, and at the same time killing became almost non-existent, the Sealing Nail has become the star of the night.

Of course, the Emperors of the Great Serpent Empire tried to help more than once, but it was no use. A large number of them had left for the North and those who remained could barely maintain a balance against the forces of the True Beginning Empire. During the three hours, no one on either side had died.

After another two hours--

The army of the Great Snake Empire was almost finished, only 10-20 thousand soldiers remained, forming a circle and frantically defending themselves like rats in the middle of a cage of lions.

In their hearts and minds, they knew for sure that they would inevitably die. Even being captured is a certain death in interplanetary wars, so they did not hesitate to commit suicide attacks. Purple clouds filled the battlefield, but the True Beginning Forces who became accustomed to dealing with these clouds were not harmed much. It was a matter of time before they eliminated this last outpost.

But Robin's voice came and stopped them, "Alright, that's enough, evacuate the entire area immediately!"

"Yes, Your Excellency!" The army officers shouted and began to evacuate. Zara also came forward with her three beasts to restrain those 20,000 soldiers of the Great Serpent as much as possible so that they would not make any suspicious movements.

Within half an hour, all the remaining prisoners, all the spaceships, and all the forces of the True Beginning Empire had disappeared from the site, leaving behind the twenty thousand Great Serpent soldiers looking around weakly and in stupefaction, unable to believe that a new life had been destined for them.

As for Robin, he returned to continue the battle above the Sky Seal Grand Array for an additional two hours, with Zara standing next to him.

The battle continued until Robin noticed that one of the Warlords' energy was getting out of

control, so he took out his black space spear again and shouted, "To all True Beginning Warlords and Emperors, Withdraw!!"
