Chapter 565 - Talk
Jin Rou came back to the place and saw that the tree was well and taken care of. He applauded Zacharite for following strictly his orders but he didn't voice it out.
"Young Master, you're back." Zacharite rushed to welcome him, "The tree has been swaying so many times and even want to uproot itself. Perhaps, it has thought that you have abandoned it."
"Indeed." Jin Rou chuckled. The tree was still young so it couldn't understand Jin Rou's language much. He caressed the tree and whispered sincerely, "I'm here, don't be angry now."
He took the tree out to nurture it further. The place they were in right now was filled with chaos energy and it was beneficial to the baby tree.
Zacharite wanted to open his mouth but hesitated to say it. In the end, he could only shut his mouth.
Jin Rou understood what Zacharite was trying to mean and said, "I have gone to the place where the eyes are following us."
"Someone is following us?" Zacharite was shaken. He didn't feel it or anything. If Jin Rou hadn't told him, he wouldn't believe it. Take note, he had very sharp senses, yet the perpetrator could still hid herself in him, "Is it an enemy?"
"It's natural that you cannot sense her. After all, she is way stronger than you." Jin Rou smiled, "She is called Demon Queen Tharis."
"Her Highness!" Zacharite was further shakened. This title could make anyone tremble in fear and respect, "Why is she following us?"
"She asked for a favor, to seal Great Demon Baal's power for a while." Jin Rou explained, "It looks like there is a incoming turbulence in the Great Hell."
Zacharite was silent. He could vaguely understand why the demon queen wanted to seal the strongest great demon's power. For so long now, Great Demon Baal has ruled the Great Hell and the Insignia Royal Family could only follow his orders. After all, it was absolute.
The only thing was, how did the demon queen managed to find Jin Rou? Or say, did she know Jin Rou's true capabilities that's why Her Highness sought for his assistance?
"Did you agree?" Zacharite asked.
"I did." Jin Rou chuckled, "She is a bit interesting. At least, she's smart enough not to antagonize me."
True. In Jin Rou's eyes, even Great Demon Baal could only be a main dish on the table. What more for the suppressed Insignia Royal Family? They couldn't even be an appetizer or a soup for the meal.
Zacharite agreed with Jin Rou. The demon queen was smart enough not to offend Jin Rou and even seek for his help, albeit quite a bold move, "The royal family must be in a dire straits now since the queen herself made a move."
"Yes, I heard from her that there is an ongoing fights under the table." Jin Rou said, "Royal families are always like this. Infighting is never an abnormal things. Always seeking for power."
"For royals, it's what make them alive. The seek for power, greater power." Zacharite sighed and lamented. Power was a privileged things for many, so many sought after it, "Sooner or later, the royal family will go down because of those stupid descendants."
"That's why Tharis made a move and asked for my assistance. She wants to weaken the great demons significantly and gain authority once again." Jin Rou said, "By this way, once the demon queen stabilized her position in the hierarchy, she could stop the issues within her family using her authority. But as of now, she is nothing but a demon queen in name with no authority of whatsoever."
Zacharite nodded. He couldn't agree more of Jin Rou's words and was greatly amazed. To think that he managed to reach this conclusion just by what the demon queen told him briefly.
"So, when are we going to Great Demon Baal?" Zacharite asked, "It's on the Level Three Hell. We need to go to our destination to ascend."
"Not yet. I heard that two Great Demons named Paimon and Asmodeus will be coming for us." Jin Rou smiled, "I'm waiting for them. And I feel like they will come very soon."
"Great Demon Paimon and Great Demon Asmodeus!" Zacharite showed a face of horror, "They're two dangerous individuals, Your Majesty. That Asmodeus is infamous for his sadistic nature and Paimon is the second strongest only below Baal!"
"Even Great Demon Baal cannot do anything to me, less for those two. So calm down." Jin Rou could feel the creeping horror inside Zacharite and tried to console him, "With me here, you're safe."
Zacharite tried to calm himself down. But it's impossible. Those two were on another level compared to those who they faced. They were very strong and sturdy as if they were impregnable walls of Great Hell.
"Being afraid will do nothing but stress you out." Jin Rou reminded the demon and said, "Instead of being scared, isn't it time for you to face them with your head up high? Remember, the great demons were the reason why you are exiled in this place."
"But I am no match against them." Zacharite's voice was filled with sadness and despair.
"It's not like I'm making you fight them. I'm going to do it, but don't show them that you're afraid of them." Jin Rou's tone was getting sharper, "They can make use of it against you and it will be you who'll suffer. If that's the case, what was your revenge agenda for?"
Zacharite crumple his fist and remembered the bitter past he experienced. His eyes turned bloodshot and his expression turned livid.
Jin Rou smiled as his words were effective. He wanted to maneuver the potential of Zacharite to be stronger mentally. Although he already reached the maximum of his talent, his mentality could still be tempered. It might be useless though since the demon's fate was already sealed. Nevertheless, Jin Rou didn't want him to have any regrets.
Jin Rou leaned on the tree, afterwards and closed his eyes. He hadn't sleep for a while now and getting some would be great. Because tomorrow, something big was going to happen.
