Chapter 397: Gluttony’s Eye
"Hahaha, not bad. That was fast. Yes, I am the one in control right now. You can refer to me as the Scarlet King."
There was terror in the trio’s eyes. They could think but could not act or do anything other than what the Scarlet King allowed.
Zarius saw with dread how his body moved without his control and took the bloody body in his hand, raising it from the ground. There was no skin on the body, as it seemed all was burned, and a red mask hindered their view of the man’s face, but they could clearly see his eyes glowing with red light.
"Who among you is the one with the highest status?"
When the trio heard that question, a single thought crossed their minds. The Scarlet King might want to make a deal with the one with the highest background, so it was in their best interest to name themselves.
Unfortunately, the power invading their minds forced them to act based on instinct, erasing any form of deception, and the trio immediately pointed their fingers at the dying young man in the distance.
"Oh, interesting."
Zarius’s body once again moved on its own, bringing the Scarlet King to the bloody young man. He was not alone since Orphin and the other Wave King also began to move, with the duo attacking the mountain with all their power, wrecking it to pieces.
While it was the way back, it was also a gate for the Blood King or Azure Family to come through. Right now, the Scarlet King was in no condition to fight powerful enemies, so it was best to destroy this end of the intercontinental teleportation formation.
Kain was still conscious and heard the duo approaching. His body was already shutting down, but he wanted to endure so he could see how that ominous entity killed the trio. He used all his strength to raise his eyes, looking straight into the eyes of the Scarlet King.
