Chapter 1462: Supreme Devil x Third Prince
While Raincart was grabbing the attention of everyone both inside the Greenwood Kingdom and outside of the kingdom, there was a meeting that happened under everyone's radar.
In the middle of the wilderness, two portals emerged at the same time. Josephine stood in the middle while lowering her head.
The first one to come out of the portal was none other than the Supreme Devil. He was followed by the Devil Saint Alexander.
Another pair emerged from the other portal. They were none other than Prince Victor and his aide.
"Well, well, well… To think that you would be initiating the meeting." Supreme Devil sneered.
Considering it was Victor who first broke away from the Supreme Devil Organization, the Supreme Devil was holding a grudge.
However, whether there was a grudge or not, the cooperation was bound to happen. After all, they had the same target, Noel Ardagan.
As long as Noel remained, their goals couldn't be achieved.
That was why the third prince took the initiative for this meeting.
Still, no matter what, the third prince wasn't the third prince anymore.
The Supreme Devil shrugged. "Well, our goals are definitely aligned. We have to crush the Ardagan family first if we want to achieve our goal."
The third prince looked at Supreme Devil with an emotionless face but still played along. "If we let the Ardagan family continue to grow, it will become a perfect goal. Noel Ardagan has far surpassed any generation of patriarchs.
"He has both brain and brawn. That's why if we continue to make a small scheme against him, we will be the ones suffering the loss."
Supreme Devil couldn't help but agree. It has been proven again and again. This time, he had realized that Laufey had betrayed him the whole time.
Every time Noel faced trouble, he would overcome it and get stronger. If they continued like this, Noel would just overcome the challenge again.
Even 100,000 demons were not enough to stop him.
That was why Supreme Devil thought it would have been better if they had just gathered everything and attacked him at that time.
The only problem was time. They didn't have enough time to build that army. If they took too much time, there wouldn't be enough demons to crush Noel.
However, the third prince, who was supposed to be buying time for them, was too useless. Not only did he fail to seize the throne, but Noel even figured out his identity.
As a result, the people had lost their trust in him. Making him the king had become an impossible task.
At the same time, their force wasn't enough to crush Noel right now. Hence, he couldn't think of a way to succeed in this plan.
He thought the third prince might have an idea. However, if that idea wasn't good, he would take his leave right away.
Victor, on the other hand, stated, "Our objective this time will be injuring Noel Ardagan, not killing him or defeating him."
"!!!" Supreme Devil couldn't help but widen his eyes in shock. "That won't be enough. If we injure him, we won't be able to achieve success. In fact, we might be the ones suffering.
"Don't forget that he has four spirit transcendences. There might even be more experts that we don't know about."
Victor nodded calmly. "Of course. However, this is necessary. We have no choice but to delay his growth by injuring him.
"We'll be using all our forces this time to buy enough time and separate him. Then, both of us will fight him."
"…" Supreme Devil fell silent. It was an insane plan. If they failed this time, the situation would get worse. At the same time, they both knew that Noel was about to become a spirit king.
If they didn't do anything, Noel would reach that stage without a problem. Then, he would be strong enough to hunt them down one by one. In fact, he might not be scared of venturing into the demon territory anymore.
After some consideration, he said, "If that's your plan, you will definitely need this piece of information. After investigating his growth, there was a period where he left the Muivell Kingdom and headed into the demon territory.
"After looking for all traces of him, it looked like there was another living area outside the four kingdoms.
"We had investigated it, and it looked like their citizens were not half-human, half-animal."
"!!!" Victor raised his eyebrows. "Those people must be descendants of the people that Alexander Simeon once saved."
"I don't know about that. However, we are sure of one thing. The spirit transcendence experts under him might come from there. I don't know if it's both of them or just one. However, I'm sure they come from the outside.
"From the looks of it, one of them is from this kingdom, while the second one is from across the sea."
Victor contemplated. "If that's the case, send the demons there, not as a main attack but as a diversion. Making them think we'll attack is enough."
"That's my plan. Although we haven't managed to get a clear picture of their strength, we're assuming this place has over 5 spirit transcendence experts…"
"…" Victor was a bit speechless. He never thought there was such a force outside the kingdom. "It looks like we have been focusing so much on the Ardagan family that we didn't even realize this kind of force outside the four kingdoms."
Supreme Devil nodded. "We will first snatch one of the spirit transcendence experts under him through this. Alexander and your servant will take care of Anna Stargaze and the other helpers.
"Lastly, we will attack Noel Ardagan together. The biggest problem will be the Demon Banner Army.
"Although the north has been unified, it is not necessarily strong enough to go against us. Sending a small wave of demons should be enough. But the Demon Banner Army is different.
"Oscar is not someone you should underestimate. Even though he's a bit passive, his strength lies in his defense. It can be said that he is on par with Noel Ardagan, who is trying to create a stronghold network in his territory, if we're speaking about defense."
"Well…" Victor squinted his eyes. "Since you have taken that body, that information must be accurate, heh? After all, that judgment comes from the former consciousness of that body, the body of the former commander of the Demon Banner Army, Ryan. How many times have you switched your bodies since that time?"
