A Demon’s Journey

Chapter 480 Banquet Invitation

Sacred Ice Aurora Valley Sect's declaration of war against the Royal Family of the Glerian Kingdom utterly shook all citizens of Crario City. They were stunned that someone actually dared to declare war against the Royal Family of the Glerian Kingdom!

It went without saying that no citizen lost his trust in the Royal Family. The Royal Family of the Glerian Kingdom had remained strong for nearly thousands of years. Meanwhile, this sect seemed rather unfamiliar.

It would be impossible for this insignificant sect to deal significant damage to the Royal Family, let alone destroy it!

However, the citizens did make sure to curse the Royal Family in their hearts. The King's tyranny knew no bounds!

King Tryfon Rellas heard this matter and couldn't help but be even more scared. He thought he had truly enraged a supreme entity by attacking the Sacred Ice Aurora Valley Sect!

His ministers even advised him to send a letter of apology to the Sacred Ice Aurora Valley Sect that would display his sincerity.

This advice displeased him greatly. He couldn't just show a submissive attitude! He was the Monarch of the Glerian Kingdom!

'Do you really think I have no means to deal with you if you are a 7 Star Warrior?! Don't kid yourself! If you dare to anger me any further, I won't hesitate to use my trump card on you!' King Tryfon Rellas thought.

It was a very guarded secret, but the King's trump cards included two 7 Star Warriors! These were the final line of defense for the Glerian Kingdom! And it was because of them, the King remained fearless as he waged war against all the kingdoms bordering it!historical

A few days passed, and it didn't seem as though the Sacred Ice Aurora Valley Sect had made their move yet.

The Royal Family was just planning to send a peace envoy when suddenly another announcement occurred in Crario City!

This time, Erica Blythe's voice resounded in Crario City! She conveyed her support to Sacred Ice Aurora Valley Sect in their war against the Royal Family!

Now, the citizens of Crario City were utterly shaken to hear this announcement.

They could understand that since Sacred Ice Aurora Valley Sect was a new sect, it didn't know of the fearsome power possessed by the Royal Family. Some even thought that destroying the Night Mountain Sect had inflated their ego! They probably didn't consider anyone in the Glerian Kingdom their match!

However, the Black Lake Sect was different! It had a great foundation and long history to back it up! It shouldn't have joined this war against the Royal Family so recklessly!

At this moment, the people began to think that maybe the Sacred Ice Aurora Valley Sect wasn't so weak in reality! It must have a hidden background that convinced the Black Lake Sect to join them!

This news spread to the entire Glerian Kingdom rapidly! Within two weeks, all citizens of the Glerian Kingdom knew that the Sacred Ice Aurora Valley Sect were revolting against the Royal Family, and the Black Lake Sect had joined them in this cause.

Laura, Yrellea, Noah, and William heard of this news as well! They all knew that Sacred Ice Aurora Valley Sect was managed by their comrade, Tiana! And even Azaroth was staying there at this moment!

All of them immediately contacted Azaroth and asked him, "Should we also wage war against the Glerian Kingdom?"

Azaroth immediately answered them, "No!"

His answer startled all his retainers. They were all a bit saddened, especially Noah! They all thought Azaroth rejected their plea because they weren't strong enough.

Azaroth noticed their emotions and sighed.

He decided it would be better to explain his thoughts to them. Thus, he began, "Noah, you can't wage war against the King because he will look for you soon enough to join an expedition to attack the Black Lake Sect or us. At that time, I want you to act as my informant in the army. Tell me what's the rank of the strongest warrior in the army and what kind of array they are using."

Noah seemed a bit satisfied after hearing those words. He was relieved that he could help his master in this war.

Azaroth then spoke up, "As for the rest of you. You all are my secret weapons. I don't want the King to realize that I have any contact with you. Yrellea, your Mystic Flower Pavilion should have amassed a massive profit by now. I want you to send it to Tiana. You will fund her sect in this war."

"Willian, you need to become stronger and truly awaken your potential. You have become stronger after splitting up from Noah, but you should have realized that your power isn't limited to this. You have ample combat experience; you need to start meditating and look deeper within yourself. Only then would you understand how to use perfectly use your power!"

Next, he focused on Laura and instructed her, "You need to continue helping the citizens and increasing your prestige. When the time comes, you will understand your task."

The more Laura's prestige increased, the more faith energy she would gather. Azaroth knew that he would gather much greater faith energy if he created a different culture and people began following it.

However, creating a whole new culture and managing it was far too much of a hassle. Moreover, he didn't want to officially create a religion since that would highlight him and the other religions would start targeting him. It would be challenging to deal with all of them!

For this reason, Azaroth used this simple method to gather Faith Energy. He was aware that this method had its limits.

At most, he could only reach the Demon King level through this method. He would need to create a religion after that.

But Azaroth had plans for that situation. This was also why the war between the Sinyalian Kingdom and the Glerian Kingdom so necessary for his future breakthrough!

In fact, if Nudar was successful in his mission, this wouldn't just be a war between the Glerian Kingdom and the Sinyalian Kingdom. It would become a war between three nations: The Sinyalian Kingdom, The Glerian Kingdom, and the Lamhilhan Theocracy.

Azaroth cut off the connection after he finished informing his retainers of their current objectives.

He soon met up with Tiana and instructed her to send a letter of invitation to all sect masters in the Glerian Kingdom. It was time to invite them all to a banquet.

The purpose of this banquet was clear. It was to figure out who would stand in their way and who would support them.

The ones who rejected their invitation were those who were determined to stand on the Royal Family's side. They would be the first targets of the Sacred Ice Aurora Valley Sect!

Meanwhile, those who accepted their invitation wouldn't automatically become their supporters!

No. No. No. It wouldn't be so simple and convenient.

Those who accepted their invitation would come to witness the Sacred Ice Aurora Valley Sect's strength. Whether or whether it had enough clout to warrant their backing. And what they may gain by working together.

For that reason, Azaroth was constructing a couple more seven-star arrays that could sustain themselves for a month. He was going to intimidate everyone through these seven-star arrays!

Azaroth wasn't going to activate it now. That would just be a waste of resources. He was going to activate it when the sects arrive at the banquet location!

After nearly seven days, nearly all the top grade sects of the Glerian Kingdom received Tiana's invitation.

All of them were naturally curious about the Sacred Ice Aurora Valley Sect. it was for the simple fact that this sect dared to wage war on the Royal Family and the Black Lake Sect actually supported it!

They knew there had to be something peculiar about this sect.

Naturally, there were a few sects that conducted a secret deal with the King. They immediately informed the King of this banquet and requested further orders.

The King ordered them to visit this Banquet. He wanted to know everything happening in the banquet!

Most importantly, he wanted to know just who his opponents were and their proper background. Only then could he prepare countermeasures. Although he was a warmonger, he wasn't an idiot. He knew that attacking blindly would only hurt his forces more!
