Chapter 504 - 505 – Call of the true sloth.
[You had been granted permission to enter the realm of the true sloth.]
[The True Sloth is awaiting your arrival.]
[Would you like to be teleported?]
[YES]
ClownFrog vision blurred as his body disappeared inside the temple, before few moments later he found himself in the bizarre space that is the home of the true sin of the sloth.
"Huh. You are late." – said sloth while sitting on the sofa and reading her books.
"I gave you that invitation long time ago."
"Well, if you didn't noticed, I'm an fucking emperor now and now I'm getting murdered by the fucking paper work as well as some other annoying job!" – said annoyed ClownFrog in his humanoid form.
"So sorry, but not sorry since I really couldn't come."
"Huh…. Well, that make sense." – said sloth while putting away her book.
"Anyway, congrats you bastard. You became emperor."
"Honestly, I though you would give me some solid entertainment, like at least take over half of an empire, but I wasn't expecting you to really conquer the whole thing."
"Well, I wasn't expecting for an fucking hell lord to pop up who also turned out to be an FUCKING herald of the pride!" – said ClownFrog.
"Well, I wasn't expecting that either." – said sloth.
"That emperor Erun Oin was real champ, eh?"
"He was an human, not an warrior nor mage, just an human, but even so he was able to wreck your shit up and even make that hell lord stand on the equal grounds with him, HA!"
"Not only that, but his movements, his actions? Hell, I wouldn't be surprised if he became the new herald of the pride after the hell lord death!"
"…"
"Well, I honestly thought about it, about him being appointed new herald and stuff… But I don't think he was? I mean, I though the whole reason why the demons were being still summoned and were completely loyal to the Oin empire was because of him becoming the new herald of the true pride, but after finding out about the whole ancient demon arm, that whole theory had been proven false." – said ClownFrog.
"Hm…. Well, I think he may had been offered the position by the true pride." – said sloth.
"But I think he denied it."
"?"
"Denied it?" – asked ClownFrog.
"Yeb." – said true sloth as she got off the couch and started stretching.
"He wanted to fight as an "Human" and he had proven himself. He had proven his power and willpower without even fighting himself."
"Honestly speaking, if there was no inner conflict happening in the empire that guy would get crowned as emperor, or if you had started the whole war after the succession war ended…. I won't be kidding around. That guy may had destroyed you completely."
"Yea, I can kind of see that happening." – said ClownFrog who understood firsthand how scary the emperor Erun Oin was.
"Still… Even though he was an enemy…. He did not deserved to die that kind of stupid death…..It was just without any reason."
"…."
"Anyway, why did you called me?"
"Is it about the whole thing from before where I wanted to talk?"
"Hm…. Well, yes and no. I called you for the other reasons, but I may as well hear out first what did you wanted back then." – said sloth.
"So, what's up?"
"Well, it's about the true sin of pride." – said ClownFrog.
"I know that we are your playthings and stuff, but is there some chance that we may end dealing with the true sin of pride apostles? Since…. You know… "Pride" and stuff."
"Hm… Well, there is an chance of that of happening. There is chance that they won't do anything, but also an chance that they will do something, I don't know." – replied sloth.
"It depends on the guy you killed reputation and how much the true pride liked him."
"So you can prepare yourself if you like."
"…"
*Sigh*
"Fuck. More work, eh?" – said ClownFrog.
"…"
"Anyway, what did YOU wanted to talk about?"
"Hm…. Many things." – said sloth.
"I just wanted to get some entertainment."
"…"
"Really?" – said annoyed ClownFrog.
"Hm…. Now, now. Please relax. This will also benefice you as well." – said sloth with an smile.
"I mean, I do have some juicy informations that may end up interesting you."
"?!"
"…."
"What do you have?" – asked ClownFrog with shocked expression.
"Now, now. Calm down. First thing first. You give me some juicy answers for my questions regarding the whole war." – said sloth with cheeky expression.
"…Can't you tell by yourself? Aren't you always watching and stuff?" – asked ClownFrog.
"And do you think that watching everything from above gives me all the answers? I don't know what you are thinking inside or some other stuff." – said sloth.
"So its better to hear everything from you directly."
"…"
"Fine."
Afterwords, the sloth began asking various questions, from when we first set off on our ships, invading this empire, our course of action afterwords, about finding an base, about the great danger zone, about our fight with metal gorilla, about us finding an proper place, about us starting to make the base, about us making our appearance and declaring the war, about us recruiting and creating vampires that wish to get their revenge on the Oin empire, about us meeting the oxman's, about us growing our base, with would result in us butting our heads with the metal gorals once again and finally then going to the war against the dragon of the Oin Empire and their true god, Amadeus.
I told her about the fight; about how strong Amadeus was…. And how defeated him… With also led us to finding out the truth behind his shitty god he once served, about how he got betrayed and manipulated people of the empire into killing his mate and children's, with resulted in him abandoning the heaven and taking power of the hell in order to take revenge, but was once again betrayed as the mad angel dragon god used the remains of the poisonous demon lord to forge an weapon that would strike him down.
I've told her that he wanted to be turned into undead, but I refused him, since I wanted him to rest.
I've told her that we would bring revenge for him.
…
And thanks to the Amadeus, I was able to evolved and take on my new form, the High Lich Dragonian.
I told her that we developed our base more, turning it city that kept expanding, growing in many different directions.
And I also told her about our new problem.
The Forgotten Fragment.
We didn't knew if that thing would explode or not with monsters, attacking us, and so without any other option, we set off to attack and destroy the Forgotten Fragment….. I told her what we saw inside. I told her what we discovered, about the madness of this place and possible story.
And about the Forgotten Executioner who somehow managed to retain its mind through the entire thing…. Only for the chains placed inside his eyes to devour and torture his brain, resulting in him losing all of his reason and turning into nothing more than mindless beast.
I told her who he was and that it was just an child forced into this cruel duty… And that it was put to the rest.
…
I've told her that we then continue expanding our base…. And then meeting the antmans, the one that were enslaved by the brown ones, the red antmans, who then we rescued and recruited to our side, before then meeting up with the green antmans who then also decided to join us.
And then us expanding even more our city, creating an large enough settlement where many differed people could live in, demons, monsters, vampires, antman's and oxman's.
And about our preparations being finally done, allowing us declare the war at the Oin empire not as an band of adventures, but instead as an kingdom.
However, while we declared war, there was another war going on, an war between the four heirs.
And about the new enemy that we would later known as "benefactor", the one that truly run things behind the third prince.
The humanoid monsters that are created from the human remains. Not an undead, nor puppet, not anything we or anybody ever seen before.
However, even with these monsters under his command, he was no match for us as we crushed him first and executed him for his madness.
Next came the first and second prince that tried fighting us, but both ultimately failing, falling before out might.
Next thing that came was surprising as the princess of the empire, Amelia Oin, surrendered in exchange for her people safety. She betrayed empire in order to make sure that the innocent people wouldn't die… We accepted her deal.
2 out of 4 enemies had been dealt with… Or more specifically 2 out of 5.
After worlds, we began marching, aiming to destroy the first prince faction and rescue Amelia and her people.
However, it wasn't the only reason why we wanted to get him first. The "staff" that the so called "benefactor" wanted to get and why he used the third prince as his puppet. His goal was so called "staff" that later would turn out to be an destroyed item from the Forgotten World.
We had had time, but we gotten to the capital city of the Oin empire, but once we got there, the "benefactor" showed himself back again and so, we started fighting him and the first prince forces.
We managed to defeat both of the armies, but even so, both of the enemy leaders managed to escape.
However, the first prince went completely missing and later on, his contract was severed, suggesting that he may had willingly quitted it, or may had been killed, possibly by the "benefactor".
The situation did turned all chaotic because of "benefactor", but still, we were able to rescue Amelia and her people.
However, … The "Hell" started from now on.
Without anybody left in his way, he was able to show his true poetical, the poetical that even frighten us.
Not only that, but he fooled all of us. Us, the church and the angel god dragon. All of us were fooled by him as he revealed that he knew about the true evil of the dragon angel church and how dangerous they are, straight up comparing them to the bombs that would explode at any moment and he was right, they were indeed nothing more than bombs…. And so, he killed them and even summoned the son of the angel dragon god, only to kill him in order to create an gateway for one of most powerful beings of hell, the Hell Lord Ka'guran, the master of the demonic beast.
With him, the war turned "chaotic".
The massive battle erupted where we faced off against the hell lord and his army alongside the empire army.
The battle was massive and I ended up confronting the Hell Lord on my own.
He transformed, he smashed, he slashed, he destroyed me…. But in the end I was the one that came out on the top and killed him.
We took heavy loses, but we ended up defeating the enemy, even the mightily Hell Lord.
However, the emperor wasn't done as he finished off what remained of our army, forcing us to retreat.
But in reality it was an trick. The army we had destroyed and wounded us to retreat was an illusion. If we had attacked after destroying that army, we would had won.
However, we would later found out the truth, with caused us to run towards the enemy base, with only our strongest fighters…. But then we saw something pathetic.
It wasn't an sacrifice of a hero.
It wasn't an valiant last stand.
No.
It was an pathetic betray that did not made sense.
An betray of the right hand man of the emperor that completely lost all hope in the emperor, with caused him to snap and murder the emperor who planned to surrendering in order to save his life.
The mad man betrayed the emperor, his people and the empire, all in order to gain power at the cost of the people, with was supposed to protect the Oin empire, but in reality it was just destroying it.
Even the demonic army that he had stolen did not wanted to obey him and instead went on and killed him instead.
And like that, Oin empire did not meet an grateful or honorable defeat, but instead an "pathetic" one, all because of an one idiot.
"Afterworlds you know what had happened, we absorbed the Oin empire territory with resulted in us becoming the new empire in the Oin empire stead." – said ClownFrog.
"Does that satisfy all of your questions?"
"Hm… Yea. This will do." – said sloth with cheeky smile.
"Thanks for the meal you bastard. It was satisfying."
"Now, it is time for some rewards, for all of your deeds and exterminate."
"…. Hm…"
"I know… How about I tell you the secret of that "staff" you were wondering about?"
"…"
"What did you just said?" – asked ClownFrog.
