Dear Broom Knight.

Chapter 766 I Will Always Be Watching You

Herodosto stared at the Lord of Hell with a serious expression and asked, "A judge who upholds justice is the one who truly deserves to die for lying, right?"

You understand this kind of pain best, which is why you love playing this role the most.

Unfortunately, losers are unable to convincingly portray that kind of foolishness.

You can't fool those who know the truth.

Asmodeus ignored the pointless taunts from next door and said thoughtfully, "You're downplaying the important issues and avoiding some crucial ones."

But it really has nothing to do with me.

The Lord of Hell said in a natural tone, "I will certainly continue to dig into your secrets, but I will not force you to explain."

After all, in your heart, this is something you don't need me to know.

This statement is so contradictory that it's frustrating.

But since it was Asmodeus who was speaking, it seemed understandable.

Armes felt he had said all he could, and that saying another word might affect future decisions, so he simply shut his mouth and tacitly accepted the Lord of Hell's provocation.

"That's settled then!" Asmodeus nodded in satisfaction. "Heroost, I'll leave it to you to take a stroll around the Demon Gate of Greyhawk."

"So, why has the Chaos Queen been hanging around Grayhawk lately?" Herosto said irritably, "and throwing her black smoke everywhere!"

“Hmm…” Asmodeus said somewhat awkwardly, “How should I make this up?”

Heroesto was so angry his hair stood on end: "Can't you just tell the truth?"

“No, that won’t do. This is of utmost importance. I certainly can’t tell you my secret!” Asmodeus laughed heartily.

Heroesto irritably shook the broken scepter in his hand and turned to leave.

Armies truly felt like he was dreaming... These two were actually on such good terms!

“I’ll be leaving now.” Asmodeus glanced at him. “You’d better finish your preparations quickly.”

Armies nodded quickly: "I will definitely try my best."

Asmodeus smiled and disappeared from the spot.

Armies took a deep breath... He really would try his best, after all, the Lord of Hell had made it clear that he would not be notified when the time came.

Armies could only improvise.

If we wait until something happens to try and fix it, it will be too late.

However, Armies was still quite confident: after all, it wasn't him who opened the key, but Katharina's lucky little paw.

Both keys so far have led directly to key areas.

Don't think that he can easily get through this exchange by simply fulfilling the wishes of two powerful evil gods.

Actually, it's really dangerous.

If Katharina had landed her swan boat at a different tunnel entrance between the labyrinth and the sealed air tunnel, both Asmodeus and Heroesto would have given her a taste of her power.

Even if the evil god truly has the upper hand, he will still use his power to make Armies understand that his status and position only require him to obediently follow orders.

After all, they were used to that high-pressure attitude towards their followers and subordinates.

Even if you know it's useless, you still have to take action first.

As for whether Armies would be happy... what difference does it make?

Even if Almes were to become a new and powerful god, he would not be taken seriously by these two.

Otherwise, the Lord of Hell wouldn't have said something like, "I'll be watching you from now on."

Asmodeus and Heroesto are not afraid of offending anyone.

They're now planning to attack Paradise Mountain! That's a truly irreconcilable enemy once offended.

Almes didn't have the guts to do that, so he could only cheer on the big boss from behind and engage in petty theft.

Although the gods of order may not be as good as Zeus in nature, those old guys are particularly concerned about their reputation, and they do have a lot of henchmen.

Herosto, who was just delivering goods, might be 'overlooked'... As long as Misca is still around, Paradise Mountain needs a righteous bigwig to maintain its image, and they will completely erase Herosto's traces here. But Asmodeus, who tore Paradise Mountain's fig leaf to shreds, will definitely be called upon to kill evil and eliminate evil.

The Lord of Hell was certainly aware of this as well.

That's why he had to give the Seven-Section Scepter to Chaos... Even if Paradise Mountain wanted to lure the demons into starting a new blood war, it would first have to completely resolve the next battle to save its husband after Chaos.

The demon princes will never allow Miska to return to the abyss.

For Asmodeus, all he needed was to be undisturbed for the initial period.

That's enough for him to draw upon the resources of Paradise Mountain to repair his damaged body and become the true Lord of Hell!
Previously, there were always rebellious demon dukes, just because Asmodeus's true form couldn't move easily!

Almes breathed a sigh of relief and patted Katarina's large paw, which had been resting on the swan boat, with a smile: "Thanks to Katarina!"
The chosen landing point was extremely precise.

We've definitely passed this hurdle!

Fortunately, Katarina found this extremely vulnerable point to stay on.

With those two's strength, if they used even a little more force, this node would shatter directly.

At that point, whether they fall into the sealed tunnel or deep within the maze will become an unknown. The sealed tunnel is a place where the node can never be found without the key.

As for the labyrinth... to ensure that it would not release Miska due to contamination, Hyronis gave the labyrinth a very absolute definition, so much so that even he himself couldn't find his way around it.

Even Karix, who kicked them into the depths of the labyrinth, only chose a general direction, and there were his scales inside as his reference.

This positioning method can basically only be used two or three times... given Karix's abilities.

The most likely reason AO was able to find them was because Karix gave them a hint.

That destroyer always shows leniency towards the enemies of the Nine-Faced Dragon God Aio, especially those powerful beings who have already achieved enough and are still striving to do it again.

But he certainly wouldn't pay attention to anything else.

Otherwise, why would Asmodeus be waiting here?

The Lord of Hell cannot use avatars like a god; what appears is basically just a phantom.

Dealing with these weaklings is a piece of cake, but when it comes to the level of powerful divine power, even the most realistic shadow is not enough.

“Let’s move towards the sealed tunnel first. As soon as we enter, Katarina will open the mithril key!” Armies stopped his parents from speaking and carefully instructed them, “Don’t hesitate for a second. There must be a lot of spying people waiting over there.”

They won't hold back; if we hesitate for even a second, we might not be able to leave!

Please, Katarina.

Then he turned to his family on the swan boat: "Make sure you activate your strongest defenses!"
I wouldn't dare say I can block every move.

Almes's thousand-thread spiderweb vines have woven a protective net over their heads.

Katarina tilted her head to look at the silk threads that were eagerly reaching out to her, and earnestly refused: "The wind is the Gale Wolf's eternal friend, and will never betray our trust."

Although they might not want to be driven by me because they have other friends, they won't hurt me.

As for other spells... what law can supersede the wind law in the Noisy Void Tunnel?
You don't need to protect me; just take care of yourselves.

A layer of cyan wind membrane appeared on Katarina's body, and outside the wind membrane, a weapon deflection protection layer quickly appeared.

At least a dozen different kinds of light were flashing on its claws and within its fur.

Armies realized he had indeed overthought things... When it came to saving his own life, Lowry was clearly more thoughtful.

He took a deep breath.

In Armes' mind, one of the two most dangerous points of this journey was the entrance to the sealed tunnel.

Neither Karix from before nor the Lord of Hell from just now is anything to be afraid of.

You might suffer a little, but the benefits are endless.

Having traversed the Destroyer's territory and endured the purest and most explosive dragon's might, his parents, whose talents were already exceptional, should have grasped that spark of inspiration... The reason the world sets the highest point at level 16 is primarily because, regardless of profession, from level 17 onwards, one must begin to integrate with the laws.

Otherwise, they would have no way to go out and bear the weight of the starry sky.

Mages have an advantage in this regard, since they are in subtle contact with the laws of nature from the very beginning when they use magic.

Knowledge is being poured into their heads through various means.

In this world, those who can become level 16 mages are truly the chosen ones.

If it were in Toril, you could easily break through level 20.

But the Knights are different.

Even if they are born in harmony with a certain law, there are countless knights who do not understand or are unwilling to understand the inner connections within it.

Even though they could easily calculate the military rations and supplies for tens of thousands of people, and could tell at a glance where their subordinates' cultivation had gone wrong.

Let them see the spell-related skill books they use... that would be enough to kill them.

That refers to his biological father.

Her biological mother wasn't much better, but she managed to put on a show in order to stand tall in front of Armies.

Seeing a little bit at a time, Almes was very willing to put together his thoughts and show his mother every day what it meant to spit out a brilliant and dazzling flower from his mouth.

But Ezra could not be blown away.

Knights, too, have their own pride.

But Armies could not allow him to be led by the nose by his pride.

Times have changed, adults.

Therefore, bringing his parents out before the world opened up to them, to see what the true powerful beings in the universe were like, was something Armes had decided long ago.

Of course, he did need his parents' help in the operation to seal off the tunnel.

He would never lie to his parents.

It's just that I left something out.

The effect is very good.

If they learned what power meant and developed a competitive spirit from Karix, Asmodeus gave them a strong sense of urgency.
