Chapter 2455: The Power of Chaos and the Sacred Treasure’s fragments
After making sure that everyone understood he was not someone they could push around, the Scarlet King withdrew the power of Null Eternum, making the Quietus Force vanish from the hall.
Normally, Cain would have been much more severe when proving his might, but it would not be wise this time.
For all his confidence in his strength, the Scarlet King had yet to find a way to confront the Dark Blood King’s Ancestor Domain. Until he understood the full extent of that power, caution was necessary.
Fortunately for him, a wide smile appeared on the Dark Blood King’s face as he nodded.
"The Scarlet King is correct. The Kalos Kingdom and the Aztorus Kingdom both fell to his power. Any assistance they might have provided would pale in comparison to what he alone can offer."
Although the words sounded like praise, a sharp light soon emerged in the Dark Blood King’s eyes.
"Which is precisely why I will be watching you closely," he continued calmly. "You will need to prove that you are as effective as those two kingdoms would have been in the coming war."
Cain immediately understood the warning hidden behind the compliment. He met the king’s gaze and nodded with a serious expression.
With that matter settled, the Dark Blood King turned his attention back to the entire group.
"There will be an immense amount of bloodshed soon," he said. "But before the war begins, it is paramount that we recover the fragments scattered across the Dark Blood Realm."
As he spoke, a trace of frustration appeared on his face.
"The unfortunate part is that locating these fragments is an incredibly difficult task."
