Monarch of Darkness, Arsene

Chapter 460: Karsa - Pale King

Chapter 460: Karsa - Pale King

Tossing the little bastard away that was beginning to challenge my patients, I released a deep breath of air, feeling a bit light-headed.

"I had reread the reports on that bastard, but it seems like he is definitely annoying. But it matters not. As long as Aiza is screwed over, I am willing to put up with that bastard, for now at least.

"If he plays his cards right, I may even get to have him eat me out. He is cute. So is that other one in his arms. Such a cute pair, all mine to corrupt."

Turning towards the swirling power rising from Tian Wang, the current celestial king, I creased my brow. To say I was not annoyed was definitely a lie. This was, after all, my territory, yet he appears with such a destructive force.

Moving closer towards the power source, I made a slight gesture to Arsene's little people all around my territory, teleporting them into my domain.

"Snake, I am in no mood." Tian Wang barked, standing over twelve bodies, all cold as ice.

"The faster you are out of my territory; the better would you not agree? Now tell me what the hell happened so you can leave."

Casting upon me a demonic stare, Tian Wang growled, "What do you know about them?"

"They look like bandits. Rugged, ugly, and their clothing is quite lacking upon the eyes. Why do you ask?"

"My grandson, my son, fucked into a whore was killed. I needn't tell you how almost impossible it is for our kind to have kids, do I." Tian Wang cursed, "It was a miracle even if she was a whore; the kid held the blood of a true celestial."

"Guessing looking in the past delivered no results. Why not summon their souls before they are sent to the nines hells."

Tian Wang frowned, "These souls were not sent to the Nines. Alos is my domain. They would be sent to Elysium to be reborn as per the deal we made, but they too are missing."

"It was those bastards from the Demonic Order, maybe the Court of Blood. I cannot have this right now." Tian Wang swore, "This is your territory; what did you see?"

"Now you asked?" I ridiculed, with narrowed eyes, "I saw nothing. If you didn't know, I am on vacation until my next breakthrough. But there was a massive spiral fluctuation in my domain just before you arrived.

"Christofer!" Tian Wang spat, turning my heart icy.

"He is back? How do you know?"I darkly inquired, drawing close enough to feel the heat radiating off Tian Wang.

"The Pale King has returned to Alos once more. He is the only one who would see fit to kill my grandchild. While I have many enemies, not many would dear enter my domain and raid an entire village to dust like this. It has to be him." Argued Tian Wang solemnly, "Bastard picked the worst time too."

Christofer. of all people, was one of the worst demonic cultivators I have ever seen in my life to date. He was a man that held such grace, but his moral integrity betrayed it. He had no bottom line. He did any and everything just to get ahead. It mattered not how little it was. Christofer would do anything to win.

This isn't good. I was watching all along, but I did not recognize the other man who had appeared. If he was working for Christofer, then he learned about Arsene.

"I don't have time for this with my new responsibilities in The Court of Nox. Karsa, hear my command, as King and Sovereign of Alos, protector of the Celestial Palace, I Tain Wang command you, to head to the Holy City of Casia and deliver the news to Yu Lan. She will be responsible till I return."

Gritting my teeth, I bowed my head reluctantly. It was not by choice but rather due to the deal many of us who reside upon Alos was forced to make with Tang Feng. Should the House of Tian need help, we are to come running and assist the best we can while living on Alos.

"I hear your command," I uttered forcefully in understanding.

'See that it's done,' Tian Wang affirmed, "Let's just hope I am wrong, and it's not Christofer. We don't need that bastard here. Not again." He said, vanishing in a flash of light from my sight.

"I should have just stayed away," I grunted to the breeze fluttering with the scent of ash. Teleporting myself back into the depts of my domain, I sighed, returning to my most natural self, before coiling around my tree humming with death.

"HEY! DUMB SNAKE, GET US THE HELL OUT OF HERE!!!!" The one called Sig screamed with a pale expression.

"Eh? Did I send you all here too? I forgot. Those that are not gods don't usually enter my domain, you see."

"is that an apology?" Arsene, who seemed rather fine, if not more colorful in the face, complained.

"Apology? Where did you get that Idea? Karsa doesn't apologize. You die, you die. Not my problem."

Sighing a bit under my breath at all the work I had to do, I once again returned to my human form, "We need to return to the holy city. I have a nexus gate in my lair; follow me. And don't touch anything. My memory is a bit lacking, so if you blow up, it's not my fault.

"Big Big Snake, don't be mean!" Shouted the little girl that smelt a bit of dragon. Watching the little dragon eyes begin to water, my heart melted at the cuteness she portrayed.

"Oh my god, you would be so cute in some soup! What's your name?"

Covering the little girl's mouth, Arsene glared, "She is my meal back off!"

Snorting, I glared but did not comment. "We will see who eats who."

"Yeah, we need to leave! I don't wanna die in here!" Yu Jing screamed desperately, with a few strands of silver hair beginning to show. "I have already lost two hundred years!"
