"Uncivilized race of Goblins, I, Lust Emperor, come here bearing a revelation for your kind. Come out and receive it, or choose to be ignorant and get wiped away from the face of these lands!"
Cyrus's voice was like a thunderclap as it rang in the entire hobgoblin settlement, and every goblin heard him and understood his words.
Almost instantly, mayhem started as those young hobgoblins and women started to run around, and the guards were alerted and searched for the invader.
The first person to spot the intruder was a guard of the leader's residence, and he was completely dumbfounded when he saw a masked man in silver standing in the air. And he wasn't the first one either, as more and more eyes started to dart toward the sky.
Although those goblins were intelligent, it was still their first time seeing something like this, and they had no idea what they were supposed to do. Magic was something only the settlement leader knew, and he made sure to keep it to himself as well.
This was the symbol of his authority, and no one dared to rebel, but even he couldn't stand on empty air and gave off such an imposing feeling that the man in silver was giving.
Soon, the hobgoblins started to make clamor about a man standing in the air right in front of the leader's residence, and the guards with bows and arrows were gathering on the ground with ashen expressions.
At this moment, the door of the leader's residence opened, and a tall, burly hobgoblin wearing bronze armor and holding a spear walked out, followed by more iron armor hobgoblins, and they were giving off cold auras.
The hobgoblin in the bronze armor was the settlement leader, and the hobgoblins following him behind were his personal guard unit.
In this place only, the settlement leader had the authority to handle iron wear, while the other goblins were still using stone and wooden weapons. Because they all consider iron and bronze as precious as gold, and they could only get after paying a steep price from another region.
The Leader was naturally the one who handled those trades and rewarded those precious armors and weapons to his loyal guards.
The settlement leader and his guards looked toward the sky, and like everyone else, their eyes went wide in shock.
It was especially the case for the settlement leader, who knew far more than his people, and even he had never seen someone like the man in silver. He appeared simply too holy!
After collecting his chaotic thoughts, the settlement leader took a deep breath and spoke in his husky voice with contained a clear hint of fear, "W-who might you be?"
"Hahaha, look how afraid he is, yet he is pretending to be brave!" Eve laughed in relish as she watched the settlement leader's fake fa?ade.
Cyrus didn't mind her as he replied impassively, "I'm the Lust Emperor of the Origin Lust Sword Dynasty, and I'm here to conquer these lands!
"You shall rejoice that I have selected your meager settlement to be the very first Military Base of my dynasty, and your race will be the first militia under my control!
"Do you have any objection?"
Cyrus's words were simply too overbearing as all those hobgoblins, including the settlement leader, were dumbfounded since they had no clue what Cyrus was talking about.
However, one thing was quite clear this man wanted their territory and them to be his working slaves. The settlement leader was not going to let his authority go just like that, and he didn't even know if that man was merely playing tricks to deceive him and the masses.
"Since our settlement is as meager as you said, just go somewhere else to find a place that is more up to your standards. We only want to live peacefully and don't want any trouble, leave this place, or you'll force us to be rude!" The settlement leader replied as he instantly banded everyone together.
Cyrus wasn't bothered by the cunning goblin's response as he was expecting this much and said while looking at the masses, "Is he speaking for everyone here?"
The masses were all watching Cyrus with all sorts of emotions, but when it came to the settlement leader, they were all filled with fear and didn't dare to reply.
The settlement leader got even more courage after he saw Cyrus wasn't seemed angry or doing anything at all and thought he was playing tricks.
Coldness crept into his eyes as he uttered, "Invader leave right now, or I'll order a full-scale attack…"
However, before he could complete his sentence, the words caught in his throat, and he nearly bit his tongue off when Cyrus's figure suddenly vanished from the sky and reappeared right in front of him like a phantom.
Now looking directly into Cyrus's two-color eyes, which were filled with derision, the Settlement Leader seemed to have lost his soul. Those person guards were also horrified when they saw Cyrus suddenly appear right in front of their leader.
But alas, by the time they react, Cyrus has already moved his sword, which was enveloped in a blue sheen, and let loose the first move of the hymn of awakening!
Everyone in the vicinity heard a melodious musical note before a gentle blue horizontal slit suddenly started to materialize.
Everyone saw the sharp slit as it was over a hundred feet long and gently pushed toward the Settlement Leader and his residence behind and only faded after a hundred meters.
No one understood what just had happened, even those hobgoblins and the Settlement Leader, as they all only felt being touched by that blue slit and felt a gentle tweak.
However, what happened next made the hobgoblins who were watching witness someone they would never forget their entire life and have nightmares about.
Every hobgoblin, including the Settlement Leader, who was touched by that blue slit suddenly started to fade away like a light in a dark abyss!
