Should I have made you lot smarter?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"W-What?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'm touched by your loyalty, but I am the one who has the responsibility of making your lives easier, not the other way around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You exist to follow your own dreams and desires. I am here to take you on the easiest path to them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adeline couldn't muster up any defense to Abaddon's words, as he was currently still shaking her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead, another member of The Black Legion took the liberty of responding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"E-Emperor, please… forgive me for my impetuousness but I request the right to speak!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"…You think I don't know what you want to say to me, Captain Ramura?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I am sure that you do, your majesty, but I sincerely hope that you will allow me to say it anyway.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Abaddon thought about it for a couple of moments before agreeing against his better judgment. \"…You're free to speak.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The captain rose back to his feet and stared into Abaddon's eyes unflinchingly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I had nothing before you and your family came to Samael. I was a petty thief, snatching purses to feed my son and wrongly teaching him to do the same.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The day you showed up in Luxuria to make it your own, I thought for sure you would be dead in a month.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A first staged evolved professing himself to be a demon lord and promising to turn our run down place into a force that rivaled Antares? It was laughable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But then… I watched you do it. I read about your battles in the paper, saw you fight against the humans who came to try to exterminate us…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Abaddon was wishing that he had denied the captain's permission to speak, because listening to all of this was starting to make him feel just a little bit embarrassed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was never the kind of person who was good at accepting sincere praise like this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But unfortunately for him, Captain Ramura was far from done.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But you weren't just our war god. You introduced a myriad of foreign policies and programs that none of us had ever even heard of to better our lives.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I still remember the day that you and Empress Lisa sat with me personally to conduct a job placement interview… I've never sweated so much in my god damn life.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'We thought you had a disability… I cooled the room with my powers, but you just kept sweating.' Abaddon remembered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You got me back on my feet, and showed me a life where me and my boy didn't have to be crooks. You cared enough to not turn your back on trash like u-\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You are not now, nor have you ever been.. trash.\" Abaddon said seriously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though his demeanor was a frightening one, he only made Captain Ramura smile even harder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"See that? Even though you know every foul thing I've ever done, your belief in me is still unchanging. You still see me as worthwhile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That is why I would follow you even if you had nothing, and fight for you with this body even if you did not give it to me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And yes, I would certainly die for you without any complaints. Such is the depth of my gratitude.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With perfect posture, Captain Ramura got down onto one knee and bowed directly in front of Abaddon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Right here today, I am submitting a formal request. I would like to ask that the full might of Apollonir's army to neutralize the threat against our monarch.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Abaddon looked around the arena, and he could see that every member of the Black Legion had dropped to their knees at some point.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their feelings on the subject were much the same as Ramura's.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And if they saw an opportunity, they would immediately jump in and submerge Abaddon in their own personal tales of how he inspired their loyalty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The entire arena was dead silent as they waited for him to make a decision.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked at his father, his mothers, and even Adeline; whom he finally realized that he had yet to stop shaking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Whoops…'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once he realized his mistake, he stopped shaking her immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But because her brain had been rattled around quite a bit, she was unsteady and ended up falling against him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Abaddon felt partially responsible for this, so he made no moves to push her away and just held her up instead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Audrina is going to be so pissed when she smells this…' he realized.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'…Audrina is going to be so pissed when she smells this!' He thought deliciously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With intense jealousy sex secured for the night, Adeline finally started to come to and realized what she was doing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"E-Emperor, I-\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lieutenant General Adeline. I want you to ensure that your entire corps is in perfect shape for our next campaign.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I won't tolerate even a single loss of life on our side, do you understand me? We hold festivals in Sheol, not funerals.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>19:55\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even with her brain rattled, Adeline understood the orders that were being relayed to her perfectly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She displayed a wide, pointed smile that was a mirror version of the one Abaddon and his family always wore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Understood, your majesty. Not a single soldier will fall under our enemy's blades. And all who stand against your eminence shall meet the same, fiery end. There will be no mercy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feeling a bit relieved by her determination, Abaddon met Adeline's smile with one of his own.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What is mercy?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, all 100,000 dragons erupted into a frantic celebration.\u003C\u002Fp>",1849,"2026-06-03T10:36:32.717Z","2026-06-03T10:36:37.500Z",1,"novelbin.me","ef41c5b0925d215c8a4fec4599ae283ca4d3c168810ff6647ecc91ba680892e7","first-demonic-dragon-chapter-488","first-demonic-dragon-chapter-486",1284,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ffirst-demonic-dragon-cover.jpg"]
