Chapter 712 Home
*Bzzzzzztt*
Richard took one foot out of the Space Portal and then the other, then stood still and raised his face to face the sky
The soft golden rays of the sun, the natural gravity that made him feel as light as a feather, the familiar blue color of the sky, all these things assured him that, after fifty long years... He is home.
When Richard left this world he was only ten years old, but during those years the Burton family was constantly expanding and he was busy going with Uncle Billy, Grandpa Brian, and Grandpa Galan everywhere, observing armies and subjects and meeting new noble children, his stay here wasn't that long, but it sure was full of memories...
Then Richard took a deep inhale to smell the air that he missed and loved, but in the middle of the inhale he stopped and a look of disgust appeared on his face, so he returned to reality and looked around him.
Ignoring the Azil Tribe prisoners, the place around him was filled with crimson-colored creatures with no eyes or ears, They had spiral horns and some of them had long white hair. It is not as if Richard had not seen any Demons before. He saw some of them working as slaves many times before, but this was the first time he had seen so many of them in one place, "What's going on here? Have we come to the wrong place?"
*Bzzzztt* The space portal behind Richard lit up again and Caesar came out. He happened to hear Richard's question, so he smiled and patted him on the shoulder, "They are your father's followers. He has carved out half of the Central Continent for them to live in."
"We're really on Planet Jura? What's my father thinking to bring the Demons here?!" Of course, Richard had heard about the reputation of demons as deaf, dumb, and blind creatures who knew nothing but hunting intelligent creatures. These creatures should be exterminated as soon as they are seen, not brought into your backyard!
"Haha, don't worry, you'll love them soon enough.." Caesar laughed and then pointed to what was in Richard's arms, "Let's take him to a quiet place to rest."
"..Alright." After a little hesitation, Richard decided to trust his older brother, but he did not budge away from the space portal
With a simple movement of his foot, the ground beneath him began to form into the shape of a tent with a bed inside it. Then herbs grew on top of that bed to form a soft layer. Richard then gently placed his third brother on the bed, then went out, leaving one side of the stone tent open, and returned to standing between the tent and the space portal.
When Caesar saw this, he laughed and shook his head. Richard provided a comfortable place for his brother, and by doing so he told Caesar that he trusted his words, but at the same time, he built that tent next to the space portal so that he would have an escape route at any time. "If only you knew how much you resemble your father..."
"..." Richard did not respond directly, just put his hand behind his back and observed the scene in front of him
Richard and Caesar were the last to get out of the space portal, meaning that thousands of imprisoned giants had entered before them, and all of those giants were now kneeling on the ground in front of the space portal, surrounded by demons on all sides.
Richard had stopped the green soul flame so that it would not accidentally destroy Salidar's soul domain by chance, and Caesar had ordered that the pain feature of the sealing nails be stopped, meaning that Salidar and Dawoodar and all their followers and soldiers now kneeling had actually lost all their power and became like any mortal, But they don't feel any pain, they just sit and wait to find out what will happen to them
However... Richard clearly saw them trembling.
*Drip* *Drop* The demons' saliva was falling like rain and they were pushing to get closer to the giant prisoners. Not one of them said a word or growled or even touched one of the giants because they had been told that they were the Lord's prisoners, but despite that, the thirst for blood in the air was thick, too thick...
If Richard, someone who still had the life energy of more than two million giants, someone who could fight thousands of enemies at the same time, felt uncomfortable being in the middle of this crowd and was preparing to run away, how would the giants feel now?
"Supreme General." At this moment, one of the white-haired demons came forward and bowed towards Caesar, "What should we do with them now?"
"Hmm? Didn't my father tell you? He spent more than a month here and had a whole team of Rune Masters with him.." Caesar raised his eyebrows slightly, even though he didn't know what his father was doing here
"No, the Lord and the Rune Masters were busy creating a huge array surrounding the entire city. We think it is a defensive array or something like that, but he did not build a prison or tell us what we should do... Should we eat them?"
"NO!!" Richard took a step forward, still unable to comprehend why and how this demon was having a conversation with Caesar, but he automatically moved when he heard that he wanted to eat the prisoners, "Those prisoners must live, if there are no provisions to keep them alive then I will take them with me and leave!"
"Don't worry, as long as your father promised you that he would keep them alive, that's what he will do." Caesar patted his brother on the shoulder, then shook his head at the demon, "Let the situation remain as it is until my father arrives, He should be here at any time now."
"The Lord is coming? we will start some preparations." The demon nodded and quickly turned around to tell the rest
*Bzzzz* The space portal sparkled again
*Step* *Step* A blond man with his hair hanging down to his shoulder, wearing civilian blue attire, walked out of the space portal, putting his hands behind his back.
"Lord!!" That white-haired demon and all the demons behind him instantly were on the ground kneeling
Robin continued to advance directly. It seemed as if he did not notice the Demons. Rather, he did not notice Caesar and Richard, whom he just passed by. With his eyes wide open and an aura overflowing with bloodlust, he continued to advance towards the giants as if he was not seeing anyone else.
Robin walked among them and continued to advance, keeping his eyes on Dawoodar, but he noticed something strange while walking... There was no reaction.
All the giants kneeling on the ground now are the main descendants of the Azil tribe. They are all nobles who lived their lives as they pleased without supervision or accountability, but now they look at the ground with dead, lifeless eyes. Since even the right to commit suicide has been taken away from them, what is there left to think about?
It didn't take long until Robin finally arrived to stand in front of Dawoodar... Even while Dawoodar was kneeling with both knees on the ground, his head was still higher than Robin's, so now Robin was looking up angrily, and Dawoodar was looking back at him with half-open eyes, lifeless and hopeless.
"...I was imagining the day I would see the person who ruined my life. I spent days and nights imagining what I would do to you. Whenever I felt a little bored, I would plan in my head how this discussion would take place and what I would say to you, but seeing you now... tsk~ Unfortunately, Richard took the best part from me... Forget it then." Robin sighed and shook his head, the anger that had nearly exploded in his chest on the way here collapsed when he saw them like this, then he raised a voice for the rest of the giants to hear and opened his arms, "There's no need to be sad, guys. I won't imprison you in some dark cells, nor will I torture you. It's just that your city was destroyed, so I decided to move you to live in another city, Here. Welcome your new home and your new neighbors!"
