Chapter 558: Father and Daughter Were Ruthless and Began to Weaken
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Vincent looked at Alexia with a playful expression. He did not expect the dragons to hate the demons so much. This whole situation had helped him greatly as he was finally able to see through Alexia and her true thoughts.
If Alexia was an honest individual, Vincent would not mind letting her follow him. However, Alexia was always looking for opportunities to trick him, making Vincent unable to tolerate her.
“I can’t believe that you’re still an ingrate!”
Vincent sneered as he said to Alexia, his eyes filled with killing intent.
Alexia shrunk her neck down in fear. However, she did not retreat or beg for mercy. Instead, she said stubbornly, “I’m a demon princess, a warrior under my father’s command. Everything I do must be for the sake of the Demon Race and my father. Unless you kill me now, I will do the same thing whenever I have the chance!”
Vincent sighed lightly and muttered, “In that case, I can only erase your consciousness and let you become a puppet just like Gaia and Benson!”
Alexia looked at Vincent with a determined expression. Her entire body instantly erupted with a strong demonic aura, isolating everything in her surroundings from a meter away. Even Vincent’s control over the Cosmic Threads was temporarily cut off.
“I am the princess of the Demon Race, I cannot be controlled by anyone! Since I cannot hide or beg for mercy, then I can only end my own life!” said Alexia with a determined expression.
She then raised her palm, preparing to kill herself.
Wilson, who had been lying on top of the gold mountain of coins was watching the show below and suddenly snorted. Immediately after that, a fiery red light shot out from his mouth, landing right on top of Alexia’s head.
The fiery red light broke through the aura of the Demon World in an instant and trapped Alexia on the spot. She was unable to move.
Wilson turned to look at Vincent and said with confidence, “Don’t worry, with my draconic aura around, she can’t die even if she wanted to. Now you can do whatever you want with her!”
Vincent’s expression was serious and he coughed dryly twice. He sized up Alexia and suddenly hesitated.
Previously, the only thing that Vincent saw in Alexia was her Immortal bloodline. However, what Alexia said earlier made Vincent pause for a moment. He could actually understand where she was coming from.
No matter what, any living creature had to be loyal to their own race. It was a pity that Alexia belonged to a race whose hands were covered in blood and whose body was covered in sin.
Alexia had no choice but to live as a demon from birth, so her actions and choices could not be said to be wrong. On the contrary, they were somewhat worthy of respect. It was just that she was born in the wrong race.
What made Vincent even more puzzled was that the relationship between Alexia and Gajero as father and daughter was too good to be true!
Who would have thought that Gajero, the culprit who had massacred countless races, could get along so well with his own daughter, and his daughter even wanted to die for him?
Vincent took a deep breath and said slowly, “Letting you die now is an easy way out. I don’t believe that Gajero and you are just a simple father and daughter filial piety. I will lay all the cards down in front of you. Soon, you will completely give up on Gajero. This is the heaviest punishment that I can give to you!”
When Alexia heard this, she said arrogantly, “I am the most outstanding child of my father, and he is also the best father in the world. You have no chance of driving a wedge between us!”
Vincent ignored Alexia. He raised his hand and snapped his fingers. He opened the space door and summoned Benson and Gaia from the space tunnel.
When Benson and Gaia saw Vincent, they immediately prostrated themselves on the ground and bowed.
“Master!”
Vincent coughed lightly and quickly asked, “What do the two of you think of the relationship between Gajero and Alexia?”
Benson who only had half of his body left opened his mouth and said, “Gajero has many children, but he only dotes on Alexia. This means that their relationship is very good. You can use Alexia as a bargaining chip to threaten Gajero in the future!”
After hearing Benson’s insane suggestion, Alexia could not help but berate, “Benson! Are you crazy? Are you helping him? You’re betraying the demons!”
At that moment, Benson was just a puppet in Vincent’s hand. He only knew how to be loyal to Vincent wholeheartedly. He completely ignored Alexia. Alexia almost fainted out of anger.
Suddenly, Gaia spoke out and said, “Master! Keeping Alexia is no threat to Gajero at all. I suggest you kill her to prevent future troubles!”
Alexia stared at Gaia with wide eyes. They were full of disappointment and disbelief.
She did not expect Gaia, who was as powerful as Gajero, to be completely controlled by Vincent and be his loyal lackey. She did not expect that Gaia would be so ruthless and directly suggest for Vincent to kill her!
Although Alexia was loyal to the Demon Race, she was also very resistant to death. Even if she was willing to die for the demons, she did not want the demons to make suggestions for Vincent to kill her.
Vincent did not take action immediately. Instead, he asked with great interest, “Why do you say that keeping Alexia is not enough to threaten Gajero?”
Gaia said expressionlessly, “Because Gajero only cares about the Immortal bloodline in Alexia’s body. They do not have a father-daughter relationship. Once Alexia becomes a stumbling block in Gajero’s path, she will be abandoned without hesitation. Therefore, we should kill Alexia early and destroy the Immortal bloodline. This way, we can further ruin Gajero’s plan!”
“Nonsense!” shouted Alexia angrily.
Although she knew that she should remain quiet at that time, she could not help but voice out to oppose this kind of slander against her father.
Vincent squinted his eyes as if he had obtained an important piece of information. He continued to ask, “Okay, then tell me, what does Gajero want to do with the Immortal bloodline?”
Gaia answered without hesitation, “Gajero believes that the demon bloodline cannot help him to become stronger. If he wants to become a supreme god, he has to become the strongest God in the God Race. Therefore, he wants to nurture the extinct Immortal bloodline and wait for an opportunity to transfer the bloodline to himself so that he can become stronger! In other words, Alexia and the unforged divine spark are the last two necessary conditions for Gajero to become a god. If we can destroy one of them ahead of time, we can prevent Gajero from becoming a god within a hundred years!”
Vincent nodded slightly and sighed with emotion. “As expected, the betrayal of those around us is often the most ruthless! I actually managed to obtain Gajero’s secret just like that!”
After saying that, Vincent turned to look at Alexia and said with a mocking expression, “I didn’t expect that in Gajero’s eyes, you are just a fruit waiting to ripen. In fact, you are completely worthless. I even thought that I had picked up a treasure. Now, you are no longer of use to me, and I can’t wait to destroy Gajero’s path of advancement!”
Faced with Vincent’s threat, Alexia did not show any fear. This was because she had fallen into a daze. She shook her head desperately and said, “Impossible, that is absolutely impossible! Father truly loves me! He is not using me. He said that the Immortal bloodline in my body is the best gift he gave me. How can he take this bloodline away from me?”
Vincent looked at Alexia, who was crying. He did not know what to do with her. He raised his head and asked Wilson, “Mr. Wilson, what do you think I should do with this girl?”
Wilson sighed deeply and said, “From the perspective of the Dragon Race, you should kill her immediately! However, from the perspective of a human, you may want to take the opportunity to comfort her!”
Vincent sighed with a puzzled face, “Comfort her? She has always wanted me to die! Why should I comfort her?”
Wilson stood up. He climbed down from the mountain of gold coins and sniff Alexia’s body. He sighed softly and said, “So it’s the Immortal bloodline. No wonder you can’t smell the stench of the Demon Race on her body. It seems that you don’t know the benefits of the legendary Immortal bloodline. If you have sex with someone that has the Immortal bloodline, you will gain a considerable amount of power. With your current weak strength, it’s not difficult for you to directly increase a few levels. Moreover, the benefits will stick with you for the rest of your life!”
Vincent’s expression changed when he heard that. He quickly said, “Stop! I’m not the kind of person who takes advantage of others when they are in danger. Moreover, I already have two women who share life and death with me. I will never do anything to let them down!”
Wilson shook his head, turned around, and climbed back up onto his mountain of gold coins. He said helplessly, “Then I can’t help you. You can do whatever you want with her!”
Vincent looked at the weeping Alexia and snapped his fingers without any hesitation. He directly sent her into the space tunnel and then closed the space door.
Vincent clapped his hands and said with a smile, “Well, it’s finally quiet now!”
Wilson looked at Vincent with a blank face and sighed in disbelief, “I really can’t imagine how a person like you could have a woman, or even two?”
Vincent said with a smile, “Luck, it’s all luck!”
“Then you can continue to stay here. Call me when you want to leave!”
Wilson could not be bothered to tease Vincent anymore. He twisted his neck, buried his head under his wings, and slept.
Vincent, on the other hand, paced back and forth in the room. He turned to look at Gaia and Benson.
They were once extremely powerful demons. Unfortunately, they had suffered the attacks of Gajero’s destruction laws, causing them to sustain serious injuries that were difficult for them to recover from. In the end, they had become crippled.
Vincent felt that it was too wasteful to keep these two powerful individuals in the space tunnel all this while. He wanted to think of a way to allow them to recover some of their strength first, or at the very least, recover their mobility.
Vincent suddenly had an idea. He turned to Kurt and said, “I have received so many Dragon Race materials today. Do you still need an upgrade?”
Kurt shook his head and said, “My body has upgraded to the max. I won’t need any materials for a long time!”
Vincent nodded and said, “Then please help me to select some Dragon Race materials. Choose some of the lower-quality ones!”
Kurt nodded and immediately sifted through the Dragon Race materials stored in his body. He then spat out some slightly flawed dragon scales and horns and piled them on the floor.
Vincent searched through his storage ring and took out a huge forging table. The fire from the furnace that had never been extinguished instantly increased the temperature of the room.
Kurt asked curiously, “Mr. Vincent, what are you doing?”
Vincent smiled and said, “I can’t seem to heal the injuries caused by the destruction law on my own. So, I might as well try and use the Dragon Race materials to heal those two puppets instead. This way, I can at least guarantee their mobility and combat ability!”
Kurt nodded. He retreated to the side and looked at Vincent with anticipation.
Vincent picked up some materials from the ground and threw them all into the furnace. He then raised his two fingers and began to strengthen the flames in the furnace.
As the temperature in the furnace continued to rise, the materials that were thrown in gradually began to melt. Finally, they formed a ball of flowing liquid that flickered with a rainbow-colored light. It slowly flowed into the mold that Vincent had prepared in advance.
When the liquid in the mold gradually solidified, Vincent immediately picked up a sledgehammer and began to hammer on the mold. Even though he was sweating profusely, he was still enjoying the process.
Vincent soon began the cooling process for his mold.
A body without a head and arms suddenly appeared before Kurt’s eyes.
Kurt observed the transparent body that was flowing with a rainbow-colored light. He could not help but lower his head to look at his own body. He sighed in disbelief, “This body is too similar to my current body. It’s just that the materials used are slightly lower in grade. So, it can’t be compared to my body in terms of strength!”
Vincent nodded and said, “This body is only made to facilitate the movement of the puppets. Naturally, the quality of their bodies can’t be compared to yours. However, this is enough for me!”
Vincent then raised his hand and patted the chest of the transparent body. The transparent body suddenly opened up. The upper part of the body was just a hollow shell. It allowed others to slot themselves right into it.
Vincent said in a deep voice, “Benson, come forward!”
Benson, who was lying on the ground, did not hesitate. He headed straight toward the transparent body and slotted himself into it. His body was a perfect match for it.
Vincent helped to seal him up. Benson looked as if he had been reborn. He had a body that looked exactly the same as before.
Vincent ordered, “Try to control your body using your demonic aura. Let’s see if you can move freely!”
Benson began to emit a demonic aura. His originally transparent body instantly turned black. At the same time, Benson had successfully controlled his new body to take two steps forward. He then turned around and took a few more steps more skillfully.
Benson reported to Vincent, “Reporting to master, this body is very easy to control. I can move freely now and it will not affect my movements in battle at all!”
Vincent nodded in satisfaction. He then turned his gaze to Gaia and said confidently, “What you lack are only arms and legs. That will be even easier!”
Following that, Vincent picked up some Dragon Race materials and began to work on the forging table.
He had created and installed a prosthetic arm and a prosthetic leg for Gaia.
After recovering his limbs, Gaia reacted the same way as Benson. He walked back and forth in the room and nodded, “Master, although I can’t recover to my peak strength now, I can participate in battles!”
Vincent nodded and ordered, “Alright, from now on, the two of you will follow me and be my personal bodyguards!”
Gaia and Benson both kneeled in fear and replied in unison, “It’s our honor to protect our Master!”
Vincent nodded with satisfaction and said to Kurt, “You can continue to stay here. Mr. Wilson will protect your safety!”
Kurt quickly asked, “What about you, Mr. Vincent?”
Vincent looked at the room door and sighed thoughtfully, “Some of my old friends are still in the capital of Ultimate Evil. I should take this opportunity to pay them a visit. Besides, I now have two demon bodyguards with me. You don’t have to worry about my safety!”
Although Kurt was still worried about Vincent, he had always been resolute in carrying out Vincent’s orders.
Kurt said to Vincent, “I will always be here. Please return as soon as possible, Mr. Vincent!”
Vincent nodded slightly. He led Gaia and Benson out of Wilson’s room and returned to the streets of the capital of Ultimate Evil.
At that time, the battle in the sky was still ongoing. The light pillar formed by purple lightning had almost pierced through the entire world. Gajero, who was enveloped in the horrifying light, did not beg for mercy. Instead, sounds of bones breaking could be heard. It seemed that Gajero was in a rather bad state at that moment. It was very likely that he would die in the end!
When Vincent saw this, he could not help but say with a worried expression, “I did not expect Gajero to be defeated so quickly. It seems that we have to hurry up and weaken the power of the Ultimate Evil Lord!”
Vincent braced himself and walked toward the Feathered Monster Race’s headquarters based on memory.
The Feathered Monster Race was not only the race that Vincent had deceived the most, but it was also the race that Vincent had visited the most during his time in the capital of Ultimate Evil. Hence, he was very familiar with their business and core members.
Vincent arrived in front of their headquarters with ease. He just happened to see Kaeger, who was preparing to set off with the elite Feathered Monster experts.
“Brother Kaegar, long time no see. I miss you so much!”
Vincent called out to Kaeger loudly. He walked forward with a smile on his face and stood in front of Kaegar.
Kaeger saw Vincent and could not help but gnash his teeth and roar, “Vincent? I didn’t think that you would dare to return to the capital of Ultimate Evil. How dare you come to the headquarters of the Feathered Monster Race? Do you know how miserable we were after you tricked us back then? Today, I just happen to want to settle the score with you!”
Suddenly, two black shadows flashed by, and two powerful demons appeared behind Vincent.
One of them was Gaia, a burly general of the 1st Corps of the Demon Race.
The other one was Benson, the last demon who had mastered black magic.
Vincent pointed at the two bodyguards behind him, who looked very serious, and said to Kaeger with a smile, “I’m sorry, I’m here to catch up with you, but if you want to fight, the two of them will fight you to the end!”
