1030 Accept the challenge
"Oh don't worry about that.
They will accept, I am sure about that."
Nux spoke with a confident look on his face.
Seeing his expression, Brille frowned in confusion. Again, she felt like this Incubus was extremely familiar, the way he acted, that arrogance, that cockiness, it definitely reminded her of Nux Leander.
A man who was pretty much a legend here at this point.
Thinking about that, Brille had a feeling that this man might be the same as well.
Brille could very well be witnessing it.
A rise of another legend.
"Anyways, have you sent the challenge to their respective clans?"
Nux questioned.
"Yes, I have done that." Brille nodded.
Nux nodded back, then, he turned around.
"Thank you for that,
Then I will be taking my leave now."
"Sir, you still didn't tell your name."
Brille questioned.
"Just call me the Devil.
The Devil who will defeat the Seven Heroes."
Being as cringey as he could, Nux waved his hand and walked away.
As he left the Order's building, he continued to roam around for a while, then, he walked into an alleyway and,
"You can come out now, Lady Vyriana."
Vyriana didn't bother hiding anymore either, wearing her usual black cloak, she appeared in front of Nux and,
"What are you doing?" She questioned.
"What? I am just doing what you told me to."
"I am not talking about that, I am talking about how you just created a clan when you are already a leader of one and gave false information about yourself.
You lied to the Order.
Are you out of your mind?"
"Lady Vyriana, the Order ensures that the contracts are upheld no matter what, yet you still managed to get information from those judges when they had signed the contract of silence.
From that incident, I got to know one thing,
You aren't simple.
You are someone who can manipulate even the Order.
And since I am following your orders right now, I believe that I can use your status to hide my real identity and challenge the Seven Heroes as Devil.
I hope Lady Vyriana won't mind."
"You aren't working for me Nux, you are doing this for yourself.
I am not the one who wants the techniques." Vyriana narrowed her eyes.
"That's just the reward for successfully doing this task, the task that you assigned me." Nux smiled.
For some reason, after returning, he was much calmer in front of Vyriana than before.
Vyriana narrowed her eyes, she could feel the change in Nux's attitude as well,
"Why didn't you just reveal your identity? You aren't scared of the repercussions again, are you?"
"Well, repercussions of defeating the Heroes may not be that bad, since I have already defeated Elijah, however, this Form of mine, I am stuck in this for some reason, and repercussions from revealing this Form,
That is something I would like to avoid.
Not to mention a Demon named Devil going for the Seven Heroes sounds much cooler than a normal Human doing it."
Nux answered honestly.
Vyriana observed him for a while, then, she just sighed,
"This is the last time I am helping you, Nux.
I will cover it this time, but I am warning you,
Do not lie to the Order again,
Is that clear?"
"Yes, Lady Vyriana." Nux bowed his head with a smile on his face.
Then just as Vyriana was about to disappear,
"Lady Vyriana, I actually needed your help in another matter."
Nux called out again.
Vyriana stared at this man. She just said that this would be the last time she was helping him...
Just how shameless...
"Please Lady Vyriana, I assure you,
You help with one last time,
And I will satiate your curiosity with the most dominant one-sided Battle you have ever seen. I will show you just how strong the husband of your disciple is."
"What makes you think that I care about something like that?"
"I just have a feeling.
And my feelings are mostly right,
Especially when it is related to women."
Nux smiled.
Vyriana narrowed her eyes.
Then, however, she just sighed.
"What do you want?"
Nux's smirk widened.
...
In the Dragon Continent, a man rushed towards another man who had a sword in his hands, and his entire body was covered in sweat,
"Lord Vedier!" The man called out.
"What is it?" Vedier questioned.
"Lord Vedier, we were contacted by the Ancestral Order, some random idiot just challenged all Seven Heroes at the same fight.
He wishes to fight all Seven of you together."
"What is his cultivation level?"
Vedier questioned with a curious look on his face.
"H-He is a Great Sage..." The man replied and as soon as he did, Vedier glanced at him with a deadpan look on his face.
"He is clearly a fool trying to get some fame, why are you even bringing something like this up to me?"
From his tone, Vedier seemed annoyed, however, since the man standing in front of him was one of his trusted aides who had been working for him for centuries, instead of lashing out, he just questioned.
"Since we receive a large number of foolish challenges like these, I have asked the Order to automatically reject challenges like these.
But for this one, they said this was something that Master Vedier might not be able to reject...
That's why I decided to bring this up to you, just in case I missed something..."
The man explained himself. Honestly, even he was confused right now, however, he waited for Vedier to decide before saying anything.
Hearing that, a frown appeared on Vedier's face, he grabbed the paper that had the details of the challenge and started reading.
"The Devil...? What sort of foolish name is that?"
"Do you perhaps know this Demon? I heard he created this clan just to challenge you seven."
Vedier, however, shook his head,
"No matter how I see it, this is nothing but a sad attempt to get some fame,
I do not have time for stupid games like these, reject thi-"
Vedier's reaction was exactly like the man expected it to be, he was sure that the Dragon Hero would reject this foolish challenge, and that was what the Dragon Hero was about to do, but just then,
The Hero's ring buzzed.
Seeing which Artifact was ringing, the Dragon Hero was surprised, he quickly read the message sent to him and as he did, his entire body froze.
"Master Vedier?" The man called with a confused look on his face.
"Accept the challenge."
"Huh?" The man couldn't believe what he was hearing.
