Demon Lord’s Reincarnation

Chapter 552 - Searching



Chapter 552 – Searching

It had been two days since the end of the preliminaries and compared to before many people from the other regions had arrived in the Capital. Normally you would think they had come to the Capital to watch the tournament, but that was not the case as they had a different purpose in coming to the Capital.

Two days ago something big happened as several dozen of the geniuses that were going home had suddenly disappeared. The numerous schools, clans, and wandering warriors have come to the Capital to find their lost geniuses.

The entire Capital that always felt safe and secured suddenly had an air of uncertainty and fear. An unknown enemy had infiltrated the Capital city and had captured the Empire’s geniuses. This has never happened in the past fifteen years since Ren took over as Emperor.

The Shadow Clan had always eliminated every threat without fail, and even if they miss something the Dragon Knights of the Regalcrag family would have easily burned any enemy to a crisp. Then finally there were the Royal Guards that were filled with powerful individuals that the Emperor had personally trained. Yet even with such powerful forces protecting the city, the unknown enemy was still able to kidnap the geniuses right under their watch.

The city were all the powerful individuals of the Empire were gathered was unable to stop the kidnapping from taking place.

The once lively city was now being encroached by a certain type of darkness. The streets that were once filled to the brim with people were now nearly empty and those that were outside had a look of anxiety. The majestic skies that were once filled with dragons, griffins, and airships, was now only occupied by a few Dragon Knights.

“How dare those b*stards embarrass me in front of my teacher! If I ever the leader of these b*stards I will crush their bodies and tear their souls asunder!”

Arthur pounded on the table breaking it in two and cracking the floor, it even made the very ground they stood on shake. Several of the strongest members of the Shadow Clan were being suppressed by Arthur’s violent aura.

“Calm down Arthur!” The Lycan woman standing beside Arthur spoke with a cold tone.

“How can I! Big sis Shera, those b*stards have made a fool of me! I for the first time in the sixteen years under my teacher needed to tell my teacher that I have failed the mission! I who had done all of the teacher’s mission without fail needed to say that I have failed him! Teacher who gave me hope, who gave me power, and who is like a father to me, I had disappointed him!”

Arthur’s aura broke out making the weaker members kneel on the ground unable to move. The base of the Shadow Clan under Arthur was located just a few kilometers outside the city. The reason for this was because their training methods were excessive and could harm the citizens if they were too close to the Capital.

It was a good thing that the Capital was so far away as the burst of Arthur’s aura had directly killed anything that had too little mana. The animals and monsters outside the base were completely annihilated. As for the members of the Shadow Clan, they were still kneeling unable to move but aside from that, they were alright.

“Big brother wouldn’t be disappointed in you for failing to capture the criminals, but he would be disappointed if he saw you act this way.”

When Arthur heard what Shera said he gritted his teeth as he stopped his aura from running amok. He stabilized himself before he started gnashing his teeth.

“Teacher might not care if I capture those b*stards, and to him, the culling of the weak is nothing much, but the mere fact that I had tarnished teacher’s perfect record hurts me. Even after every one of us used mana sensing we couldn’t find any of them. Those that we were able to capture had used some kind of technique that not only wiped out the memories of their bodies but even their souls were cleaned. Damn them, they’re only weaklings that know how to flee, yet they have so many tricks in store.”

“Hmmm, you’re right at this point only people at big sis Tsukiko’s level could sense them.” Hearing what Shera said, Arthur shook his head and responded.

“Unfortunately, that’s not the case, I have already asked all of teacher’s wives, and none of them could sense the intruders. Even lady Silika, Lara, and Tsukiyomi cannot sense the presence of these b*stards.”

Shera was stunned into silence. She knew just how strong the Emperor’s wives were, especially Silika, Lara, and Tsukiyomi who stand atop those powerful ladies. Aside from the Emperor himself, no one else was a match for those three, even Valdel who was famously known as the strongest below the Emperor was no match for those three.

“If even those big sisters are unable to find these people, I guess only big brother’s mana sensing could spot them.”

“Which is why I’m so frustrated right now. I cannot bother teacher with something like this. He had trained me so that he wouldn’t need to make a move himself if the opponent was weak. These b*stards are clearly nowhere strong enough for teacher to take action.” Arthur spoke while gnashing his teeth. Seeing him act like that Shera could only sigh as she understood his frustration.

“So what do you plan to do next?” 𝙗𝒆𝒅𝒏𝙤𝒗𝒆𝙡.𝙤𝒓𝙜

“I will search every nook and cranny of the city, I will search deep underground, to every single area within ten kilometers from the Capital. I will tighten the security and I will use all the staff of those academies and make the families of those that have lost their geniuses follow my commands. I will do everything within my ability to capture these b*stards, and once I do they would wish that they had never provoked the Empire.”

While Arthur was already to tear down the entire Captial just to find the hidden enemies, John was also in search of the kidnappers who took Melody.
