Chapter 2544: The fate of the Royal Guards
One was a massive dragon, its colossal body radiating ancient power, yet where eyes should have been, only jagged horns protruded, giving it a terrifying, otherworldly appearance. The second was a towering dino-warrior clad in obsidian armor, its form emanating brute strength and unyielding resilience. The third was a humanoid figure with smooth, milky-white skin, whose calm expression concealed an abyss of power and will.
After the Dark Blood King learned of the Scarlet King’s blatant betrayal, he had gone far beyond mere surveillance. He had personally ordered their capture and imprisonment, chaining them within the heart of his capital and waiting for this exact moment.
Yet despite their strength, the expressions on their faces were grim.
For Averus and the Heartcream King, the fear was even deeper.
Back then, they had not cared. In their eyes, no matter how much Cain grew, he would never reach a level where he could ignore the authority of the Dark Blood King.
Not only had Cain reached that level—
He had slain Shakra.
Both were beings at the level of a Realm Ruler.
And none of them believed he would be satisfied with merely reclaiming the missing fragment of the Sacred Armor.
If there was anyone who could lead them through this crisis, it would be him.
Normally, being the center of attention pleased him. It reinforced his belief that he was the pinnacle of the Ninth Realm, the one destined to elevate it from its status as the weakest among the Nine Realms of Paradise.
Those gazes felt suffocating.
Still, the Dark Blood King revealed none of it.
He looked at them with overwhelming killing intent.
Their gazes remained steady, filled with nothing but cold determination. Not a trace of fear could be found in their eyes.
Calling them his sons would not have been inaccurate.
"Hmph."
The Royal Guards were powerful, with the potential to reach the level of King-tier existences. But more importantly, they possessed something his own subordinates lacked—
None of his generals, nor even the kings beneath him, could match it.
At once, a massive projection spread across the sky. The image of the main square appeared above countless cities, fortresses, and strongholds throughout the Ninth Realm, ensuring that every corner of the realm bore witness to what was about to unfold.
"Scarlet King. Hear my words."
Far away, Cain saw the projection and heard the voice.
He continued forward, his figure streaking across the sky like a blazing comet. At his current speed, it would take less than ten minutes to reach the Dark Blood Kingdom.
Yet he remained calm and continued speaking.
A mocking tone crept into his voice.
His gaze sharpened.
His words carried accusation and intent.
The message was clear.
He could not be allied with.
His face remained calm.
Focused.
The Dark Blood King’s eyes narrowed as he finally saw it—a golden shooting star in the distance, approaching with terrifying speed.
A gigantic hand formed from pure darkness manifested above the three Royal Guards, radiating destructive force.
The threat echoed across the entire realm.
The golden shooting star came to an abrupt halt.
