Chapter 19: Returning to Red Moon

~12 min read 2,273 words

Two years after successfully taking up the profession of 'Withering Messenger', Sakavi felt that he was invincible at the Legendary Rank. Those who hadn't taken up a second profession could be beaten at will. Those who had a second profession, those good at close combat couldn't beat him in long-range attacks, and mages who liked long-range combat couldn't withstand one of his claws.

It was time to return to the Red Moon plane. Daring to pit him, if he endured this, I'm afraid everyone would want to come here and step on him twice. Of course, he couldn't just go back swaggeringly with a large army. If he really dared to do that, I'm afraid he would be wiped out by the Luo Sen Empire's army on the way.

After putting the army into his domain, Sakavi turned into a Dragonman, put on a purple magic robe, and transformed into a missionary of some unknown church. There are as many deities in this world as there are hairs on an ox, and ordinary people can only recognize those that are relatively famous.

Fortunately, his undead army didn't need to breathe and could be piled together. His domain could barely fit most of them. For the rest, he bought ten super-large space bags and stuffed them in.

After returning to the Red Moon plane, the first thing Sakavi did was to check if his gold coins were missing. What surprised Sakavi was that not only were they not missing, but they had also increased several times. Grapp's management ability was so strong that it was unbelievable. He actually opened up the herb sales channel of the Luo Sen Empire.

The excited Sakavi immediately promoted him to his General Manager of Internal Affairs, fully responsible for external social interaction and internal management. The good news didn't stop there. Elna, who had already broken through to Legendary, saw that she not only escaped the pursuit of the Church of Holy Light but also brought hundreds of thousands of troops, and directly indicated that she was willing to become a kin unconditionally.

This made Sakavi, who was severely lacking in manpower, ecstatic, and he signed the contract immediately. To show respect, dragon scales were plucked on the spot. Sakavi directly appointed her as the General Manager of Intelligence, responsible for monitoring that old bastard Laste to see when those cultists would take action.

Half a month later, Elna sent news. The good news was that the cultists were ready to take action, and the bad news was that they planned to launch multiple large-scale sacrifices throughout the Luo Sen Empire to open a channel to the Abyss.

What a group of hopeless lunatics. The most troublesome thing was that there were actually royal family members involved, which severely dragged down the Luo Sen Empire's reaction speed. No wonder Laste had no action; it turned out he was afraid of being wiped out by the opportunity.

The Luo Sen Empire's affairs were not that long, and he couldn't interfere, but Laste above his head could try to stir up the water. Let them fight to both sides' detriment, and then take the opportunity to directly clean up this Grand Duke. Even the Church of War couldn't say there was anything wrong with what he did.

Two days later, at night, in an ordinary residential house in the Outer District of Weilincheng, a group of strange-looking people with twisted facial features were arguing about something. Suddenly, a sharp blade slashed the throat of a Gnoll with goat horns. The sudden change instantly ignited the tense atmosphere in the room.

"Rem, you actually dared to take action directly!"

"No, it wasn't me!"

"Go to hell!"

Suddenly, a fireball emitting green fluorescence hit the person named Rem, and the battle was on the verge of breaking out. Both sides retreated quickly to open the distance and fought back.

"Report to the officer, five gang fights occurred in the Third Outer District last night, causing a total of 28 deaths, and another 50 people were accidentally injured. Residuals of demonic magic were found at the scene."

"Are there any survivors at the scene?"

"Report to the officer, there are no survivors. Except for a few who were hit by magic and died on the spot, the others were all slashed by professional assassins."

"How was the interrogation of the witnesses?"

"Report to the officer, according to the witnesses, the deceased were all gang members who had gathered many times recently, seemingly plotting something. No outsiders were found entering or leaving."

"Where is your captain Quike? Such a big thing happened in his jurisdiction, and he can't even be seen. Dofor, go see if that guy is still in the brothel in the Outsider District and hasn't woken up yet. Damn guy, I must peel his skin."

"Officer Sharl, what happened to make you so angry?"

"Five murder cases in the three outer districts in a row, residuals of demonic magic found at the scene, Quike, the captain of the three-district law enforcement team, neglected his duty and was not at his post during his shift. I'm afraid my position as the law enforcement officer of the Outer District is coming to an end."

"I thought it was something. What does this count as? There was a hundred-person fight in the suburbs last night, and twelve murder cases in the Landlord District. Our Flight Law Enforcement Bureau didn't rest all night."

"Could it be that the people above are going to take action?"

"This is not something we should worry about. Take my advice, just treat this matter as an ordinary gang fight."

"Alright, alright, I know."

In a basement somewhere in the Handicraft District, Elna stood in front of Quike, who was tortured to the point of being on his last breath, listening to her subordinate reporting something.

"Immediately retreat from the secret passage. Someone is waiting in the suburbs. Leave these cultists here. Remember, you must let Willen's people discover them."

"Are we not waiting for Willen to take action before leaving?"

"We want Willen to know that another force intends to intervene, not to let him know that someone intends to take the opportunity to eliminate him. If he knew that the master was still alive, would he still dare to take action?"

Grapp, the Master Rank Druid, nodded to show he understood. Several people quickly retreated to the suburbs, where several ox carts transporting slaves had been waiting for a long time. Several people walked past the Gnoll law enforcement teams responsible for martial law in this way.

"How did the matter go?"

In a cave, Sakavi, who was eating hot pot with a non-spicy base, asked without raising his head. There is a lot of meat that can be eaten in this world, and there are many seasonings, but there is no chili.

After repeated exploration and attempts by predecessors, there are 1,599 types of meat that have been determined to be edible and delicious. If you count the Elf girl sashimi, it is 1,600 types.

Sakavi has an instinctive rejection of eating living people or intelligent creatures raw. The Goblin meat he ate when he was a child gave him a very big shadow, which caused Sakavi to feel nauseous whenever he mentions eating the meat of intelligent creatures now.

"Master, we have successfully attracted Willen's attention, and Laste has ordered martial law in the entire territory. They still don't know that you have returned."

"Very good, you did a good job. After taking down that old bastard Laste, you can pick any five things you want from his treasury, Grapp, you too."

"Obey!"

"Is the teleportation array in Weilincheng set up?"

"It's already done, Master. Before activation, no one can discover its existence."

"Well done, Grapp, my most reliable assistant."

"It is my honor to serve you."

On the second night, Zorro Blackarrow, who was leading a patrol in District 5 of the Outer District, suddenly saw a fierce argument happening in the house in front. He was already very dissatisfied because of working overtime, and at this moment, his anger flared up.

"What are you arguing about? Don't you know that there is already a curfew? Where is the sentry post? Can't you hear such a loud sound?"

As a result, he shouted for a long time and no one paid attention to him. In desperation, he could only turn off the hyena and knock on the door to warn the family himself.

"Stop arguing, if you argue again, I'll catch you into the security bureau. This group of sentry posts only knows how to be lazy all day long. Tomorrow I must report to Officer Sharl and clean them up severely. I'm talking to you, why are you still arguing, you... enemy."

Just as he kicked open the door, Zorro was hit by several arrows. Just as he was about to say the word 'enemy attack', he was dragged into the house by someone. His subordinates saw that the captain didn't come back for a long time and were planning to go take a look, when they suddenly found someone running from the alley behind, and immediately chased after him.

When they finally blocked the Kobold child at the corner of the wall, Deputy Captain Melo was planning to call someone to handcuff him and take him back for interrogation, but he seemed to feel something. Looking back, his teammates behind him had already disappeared.

Just as he put the whistle to his mouth and prepared to blow it, he felt a pain in his waist. Looking down, he saw that the Kobold child had already stabbed the dagger into his waist. The child saw the blood flowing out continuously and screamed and ran into the depths of the alley in front, crying and shouting for his mother while running.

The dagger seemed to be poisoned, and Melo felt that he had no strength in his whole body. He suddenly fell to the ground. As he gradually lost consciousness, he vaguely saw countless feet walking past him, some adults, and some children.

The riot in Weilincheng began. A fire suddenly started in the Commercial District, and the fire spread to all the wooden buildings around in a very short time.

The rioters were beating, smashing, and looting everywhere. However, if you observe carefully, you will find that some rioters gathered together, seemingly drawing some patterns.

The mastermind of this riot, the leader of the cultists in the Grand Duke's territory, High Priest Willen, is actually a Master Rank Mage. For the Legendary Rank that will cause disturbance to the plane elemental structure, breaking through is equivalent to notifying the coordinates of the entire plane's Legendary Rank.

Of course, you can also choose to break through outside and then come back. However, if you really have such good talent, the first thing is to kick the demon behind you away. In fact, most cultists don't have good talent and rely entirely on demons to give them power.

Knowing that his strength was insufficient, Willen planned to obtain stronger power through the teleportation array. Since he had made up his mind to wipe him out first and then go to the Luo Sen Empire to pick up autumn wind, how could Sakavi let him get his wish?

The magic arrays everywhere in Weilincheng lit up one after another, and one demon after another walked out from inside. Willen's plan seemed to have succeeded.

However, just as the last and largest magic array hidden in the Blacksmith District was gradually brightening under the constant chanting of the warlocks around, and the demon's figure was turning from virtual to real, an arrow carrying death suddenly shot over.

The demon's figure quickly virtualized and disappeared in wails. Willen, sensing that something was wrong, turned and ran. When he was about to disappear into the crowd, his head fell to the ground.

"Well done, Elna, I knew you would never disappoint me."

Under the influence of the rampant demons, the rioters' deformities and mutations became more and more obvious, and they became more and more cruel. Seeing that the time was almost right, Sakavi ordered Grapp to activate the teleportation array.

Watching batches of undead armies walk out from the array and advance continuously, killing the rioters, Sakavi instantly felt in a great mood.

However, when the undead army encountered demons, they were instantly beaten to pieces. The Death Knights were scattered in one encounter, which made Sakavi feel embarrassed. Elna, who couldn't watch anymore, had to take action herself.

She saw her two curved blades kill one demon with one blade, and she didn't even need to dodge the demon's counterattack. The Gray Dwarf warriors and Grapp also joined the battle one after another. The battle line pushed forward rapidly, and the Death Knights following behind turned into robbers, staging a real robbery in the fire.

While the high-level officials of Weilincheng and Sakavi's subordinates were cleaning up the demons together, Sakavi took the opportunity to find the Dragon-kin he met last time.

"Clausua, do you know where the Grand Duke put the treasures? I'll go steal them out, and we'll split it two-eight."

"I know, it's in the basement under the castle, but there is a barrier inside, and ordinary people can't get in."

"That's not a problem, I'll go steal it."

Sakavi didn't care about the barrier or not, and directly put the castle basement into his domain and took it away. Coming here once, if nothing else, he must get enough money. ===== CHAPTER 20 =====
