420 Devil Slayer!
“He killed three devils and a demon army by himself? Is that true?” Iverson’s expression turned serious. He knew that Ceterus won’t make things up in front of a lot of people. But this matter was still difficult to believe.
After all, who are the devils? Demons are innately strongest than humans because of the versatility of the magic system and their innate stronger bodies. They are strongest in all aspects because of magic. Not only that, Devils are equivalent to S ranks... They can use catastrophe-level offensive spells and defensive spells that almost make them invincible!
When an S rank degu user fights a devil. He would suffer at a disadvantage due to the devil’s wide repertoire of spells for offense, scout, defense, blinding, and support skills. Simply, devils are already a complete team by themselves due to the versatility provided by their magic system!
Even Edward, the king of the San Luebisto kingdom, looked skeptical. But he knew Ceterus for a long time and constantly makes business deals with him for a long time now. He knew that Ceterus won’t make up a story to deceive them since it won’t benefit him but might even damage his reputation. ‘This Fein killed three devils, huh? I should try to recruit him.’
Edward formed a plan in his mind. He had been used to scheming to achieve his goals. He can use any method to people just for the sake of his kingdom. A kind king outside, but selfish inside... There are only a few people he truly cares about and that’s his three friends and his heirs. But he still didn’t dare to challenge the bottom line of the Xeno Great Alliance. Because if forced Fein to join him, the other great countries would pressure him even if the leaders were his friends.
He just intended to invite Fein, and if the other refused, then he can’t do anything about it. But if Fein accepted his invitation with force. Others won’t be able to say anything. Though, it was sure that his kingdom’s relationship with San Fernando would get affected.
As for forcing Fein... He quickly removed this thought from his mind. A degu user that could slay three devils is a figure that he couldn’t afford to provoke, even as a king. And it was the highest taboo that one could commit in the Xeno Great Alliance that promotes the growth of geniuses. If he really did that... He would become a traitor. His king’s status doesn’t matter at that time.
“That kid has a great future. Soon, San Fernando might even be able to overtake your Hosu as the strongest country in the Xeno Great Alliance. Now it’s necessary to change his title, and call him Devil Slayer from now on!” Jake chuckled.
“It’s possible.” Iverson nodded. “I’m not sure if I can do what he did. Just the devil we fought once nearly killed us. I don’t care if he becomes the strongest. If he can, then that’s because he worked hard for it. We have to make sure that he grows at all costs. He’s our key to defeat the demons and surpass the Central Plain.” Iverson’s eyes narrowed.
.....
‘As expected of Iverson. He really sees things from the perspective of the whole South, not just his kingdom.’ Edward knew Iverson’s character after they fought side by side together in the past war. A wise person that has the people in his heart.
Edward knew that when Iverson became president of Hosu. He had matured over the course of years. If it was before, he only cared about the people that lives in Hosu. But after becoming the leader of the Xeno Great Alliance, his heart expanded and the interest of the whole alliance became his priority. Now, even if other countries rose and became greater than Hosu, Iverson will only become happy.
Edward didn’t hate Iverson because of this. But he admired him because, in his view, Iverson belongs to the rare creature that could ignore the temptation of the flesh and dedicate his life to the people under his responsibility. ‘I’m really his polar opposite.”
Just like that, after Ceterus’s last words of introduction. The degu users below the stage discussed heatedly with each other.
“This man is incredible! To be able to kill three devils... I wonder what degu abilities this man had.”
“Probably a domain ability or those unique transformation abilities! Those abilities were the only abilities that I could think of that would enable him to slay devils.”
“Ugh, I want to marry him!” A coquettish woman with a sexy figure licked her lips with bright eyes. If a stare could eat, she had already eaten Fein.
The girls around her glared at her. Some scoffed at her words. Almost all the girls want Fein for themselves!
There are even a few S-rank women that became Fein’s fans! Just this fact was already incredible! After all, there are only a few S-rank women. Because the majority of S ranks are boys!
Because of this, women who managed to ascend to the S rank realm are all sought. People look at them with respect and desire. Like a rare treasure that was hard to encounter.
Unfortunately, a woman that managed to become an S rank with their talent are all proud swans and looked down upon by others that aren’t worthy in their eyes. While some women who became S rank by hard work had a mature and cold temperament that pushes away men that want to pursue them.
Moving the hearts of powerful women is a difficult task that Fein had achieved! Whether it is status, achievement, and appearance. He was excellent in all of them. A powerful woman also wants a powerful man. They instinctively find someone equal that was worthy of them!
Although in the degu society, appearance wasn’t as important anymore if you were just a weak chicken. A good appearance with a weak strength could be even treated as a curse in women. Because someone would covet their beauty, either a powerful person with influence or a degu user with a dark heart. It could also affect the people around them and bring disaster.
But if you are good-looking and have powerful strength. That’s an entirely different story. People would deliberately flatter you and want to be on your positive side!
