Chapter 1037 Conference [5]
"I have no reason not to. After all, I witnessed your betrayal personally."
Immortal Blood Asura's words shook the atrium, but they weren't allowed to fester for too long.
"Immortal Blood Asura, do you mean to insult me? Damien is my own student. Do you think I cannot sense the difference between a young hero and a traitor?"
Alucard was the first to speak up, coldly glaring at Immortal Blood Asura.
"Indeed, Immortal Blood Asura, do not think you can use your status to harm the younger generation. Damien is the savior of our clan. He is not some traitor scum."
The Golden Dragon Emperor also made a stand, and his words were soon supported by several more influences.
The Ancient God Clan, Demon Sealing Pantheon, Azure Rain Star, Fallen Star Holy Land, Prismatic Sun Holy Land, and even Heaven's Army's representatives voiced their support for Damien.
Right, he didn't just travel the universe, he left his mark on every corner he passed by, creating connections with countless forces and participating in even more battles against the Nox.
Accusing him of being a traitor?
It was a laughable thing. Why would a traitorous man thwart the Nox's plans with such determination over and over again?
Immortal Blood Asura's expression soured with every force that stood up, but he didn't lose his composure.
Until the final one made their stand.
"The crux of your problem is the fact that you don't know his origin, right?"
Tian Yang grinned, causing Damien's eyes to widen.
In his eyes, the Human Domain could be defended with enough effort, but his disciple could never be defamed like this.
"Damien Void is a disciple of my Celestial Star Palace, the expert titled Heaven's Wrath due to his monstrous abilities, the husband of the princess of the Adelaire Empire of Apeiron, and a proud native of our Human Domain!"
Damien blushed a bit inwardly at the exaggerated introduction, but he kept his confident expression on the outside as countless eyes turned to him incredulously.
Since Tian Yang chose to reveal their relationship, he naturally wasn't going to back down!
"That's how it is," he said with a smirk, his eyes tauntingly meeting Immortal Blood Asura's.
"I'm an earthling born and raised. Isn't that crazy? The genius you put so much value in is from the domain you disdain the most. I almost want to laugh at the ridiculousness of it all."
The atrium went from silence to an explosion of murmurs and isolated conversations in a single instant.
Did this even make sense?!
The Human Domain had already proven itself on Holy Light Star. Their younger generation held the record for most Demigod-rank treasures collected during the expedition, and now it turned out that their top genius was an even greater monster!
The reputation they held before their fall suddenly appeared in the minds of these experts.
A dwelling of heroes, a domain that only raised Emperors.
How domineering!
Nevertheless, Immortal Blood Asura's sour expression didn't stop him from pursuing the matter.
He didn't care about Arthur or Reavus' deaths in the slightest, but he couldn't allow this brat to continue humiliating him and his Holy Land!
The Blood Asura Holy Land was always known as the most fearsome of the Demigod-level influences. This was because of their arrogant and cruel behavior that consisted of doing whatever was necessary for their own personal gain.
So many had suffered under their hand, but they'd never suffered at the hands of another!
"Gentlemen, do not be so quick to voice your support. As I proclaimed earlier, I personally witnessed his transformation. It will only take an in-depth scan of his body with your awareness to realize the truth."
As he spoke, he turned to Luciel and Lucifer, who glanced between him and Damien with slightly agitated frowns on their faces.
It was clear that Immortal Blood Asura was trying to oppress someone he didn't like, but the certainty he showed wasn't normal.
There was truly a chance that Damien had converted and found a way to hide the mana in his body.
However, it was impossible for him to deflect the perception of a Demigod who was bent on checking his body.
The only problem was, if they didn't have his consent to undergo the search, such an action would violate the universal restriction on Divinities.
"What do you think?" Luciel asked Damien without an ounce of enthusiasm.
historical
Damien shrugged with the same energy. "Just get it over with. We both know I have nothing to hide."
Luciel nodded and beckoned to Lucifer. The two of them pulled out slips of jade and crushed them, causing the light of spatial fluctuation to fill the space.
An Angel and a Demon Demigod appeared upon being summoned and were quickly filled in on the situation by their juniors.
"So it's this boy?" The demon said with interest. Actually, he wasn't a totally unfamiliar face.
ραndαsnοvεl.cοm His name was Arturo, and he'd been seen once before conversing with Eden's strongest Demigod, a woman who still hadn't shown her face in the universe yet.
The Angel, on the other hand, was a woman with a stern and indifferent expression who did nothing but glance over Damien before losing interest.
Damien smiled wryly at these curious seniors and offered his wrists, which they grabbed soon enough.
Damien felt two waves of awareness spread through his body.
They were extremely powerful and Damien could sense that nothing he did could repel them from the truth.
The only thing that could hide from them was the Void.
Damien frowned slightly, while Immortal Blood Asura's expression became more and more mocking.
His words weren't false.
Not long ago, he'd seen Damien intake and incorporate a large amount of Nox Mana through his Avatar. No matter how he managed to hide this mana, he wouldn't be able to hide it from a Demigod.
He waited patiently for the anguished expressions of those who opposed him, but when the two impartial Demigods stepped away..
"Wow! What is this kid's body? Since when did our universe have a genius like this?!"
"Hmm, this child is gifted. Luciel, make sure to nurture him well."
The reactions were completely opposite of what he expected!
Damien's body was free of any Nox influence, and was instead filled with countless mysteries that granted him limitless potential.
It was almost comedic how fast Immortal Blood Asura and his group's expressions changed. Their gloating turned into confusion and eventually shame as they received the scornful gazes and words of their peers.
Perhaps Immortal Blood Asura had seen Damien absorb Nox Mana that day, but Damien had long since gotten rid of it!
Knowing this exact moment would come, he spent time in Beast Emperor Star clearing the corrupted mana out of his system and feeding it to Zara, who hid in the Sanctuary.
'Great!' Damien exclaimed as he watched the situation rapidly evolve.
'Now that this has been solved, I can slowly start bringing Zara out again!'
It was great news indeed. Zara had been cooped up in the Sanctuary for a very long time now, and it was about time she showed her face again.
Damien had genuinely been waiting for this moment to happen for a very long time, and now that it was passing, his excitement was palpable.
Especially now that he had front-row seats to the Roast of Blood Asura Holy Land!
