Chapter 985
It didn't take long for news of Chae Hyung-Seok declaring a state of emergency to reach Baroque’s ears.
“What’s going on, Hyungseokius?”
Baroque summoned him and demanded an explanation for the sudden increase in guards patrolling the castle.
“That cursed bastard is coming, Your Majesty,” Chae Hyung-Seok replied, his voice sounding grave.
“Who is this cursed bastard you speak of, Hyungseokius?”
“Han Tae–no, Siegfried van Proa is on his way here, Your Majesty.”
“What...?”
Baroque grimaced at Chae Hyung-Seok’s response.
It was truly an absurd claim, as in Baroque’s mind, the idea of an Adventurer like Siegfried making it all the way to the Seventh Domain of the Demon Realm was preposterous.
He ought to be hiding somewhere in the world the humans live in rather than foolishly marching into the Demon Realm of his own accord. No matter how strong he was, his strength was only valid in the world of humans.
In the Demon Realm, even ordinary demons that reached above average levels possessed enough power to match the human Masters. Even the mighty dragons, considered to be the most powerful creatures, were no match against the high-ranking demons if they battled in the Demon Realm.
And yet a mere Adventurer was actually making his way here? To the Demon Lord’s Castle?
