The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order - Chapter 739

Chapter 739: Victory is not the end (I) Chapter 739: Victory is not the end (I) “I declare that the Azure Bloodline no longer exists, and the crimes of the Azure Royal are paid in full!

Anyone that refuses that ruling is contesting my authority, the Scarlet King!” A meaningful light appeared in the eyes of the Collapsing Lightning Duke, First Collapsing Lightning Pillar, great generals, and every powerhouse across the Goldsayer Humankind Empire as they heard the words from the Scarlet King.

Although for most, going after the Azure Bloodline in those over two million innocent people could be considered unjust punishment, those who understood human nature knew better.

All members of the Azure Bloodline that had been connected to the Olympus Project were gone, as well as those who committed capital crimes, but that might not be enough for many who were still full of resentment and hatred toward the Azure Royal Family.

While not everybody with the Azure Bloodline was guilty of the crimes of the Azure Royal Family, that did not mean they would not be targeted, and now that the Azure King and all the other powerhouses were gone, there was no one left to protect them.

Luckily, now that the Azure Bloodline had faded from their veins, there was no distinguishing characteristic, making it easier for them to keep a low profile and not draw unwanted attention.

Of course, if someone were determined, they could find those people, but that would go against the ruling of the Scarlet King.

And he was the man who did not hesitate before incinerating over three hundred thousand people alive for all the world to see.

An act of extreme brutality and one of great mercy.

A leader needed to show the world he was capable of both.

Cain allowed a minute for his words to echo across the continent, waving his hand, completely deactivating the 81 Deus Behemoth Heaven Suppression Formation, enabling the people to move on their own.

“If you live inside the Azure Royal Castle, you have thirty minutes to take your belongings and leave, as that is now the Scarlet Alliance Headquarters.

The rest of you can return to your homes and do as you wish.” The people rose from the ground and kept their eyes down.

They were still shocked, and there was rage in the hearts of many of them, but they did not dare to show it out of fear.

Cain was not surprised by the resentment, as even if the people he killed were guilty, they were still their friends.

The fact that he saved their lives and threw a layer of protection did not seem to matter to them, but he did not care.

He followed what he believed was the right path, and that was good enough for him.

It did not take long for those who lived inside the Azure Royal Castle to evacuate, and by the end of the day, the place had become the center of operations for the Scarlet Alliance.

— Cain sat on the azure throne, and in front of him were the great generals and three others.

Specifically Magnus, Gladius, and one of Cain’s old friends, Lurin.

Magnus and Gladius remained composed in the face of the True Titans and great generals, but Lurin was not having such an easy time.

After all, he was just an Early Wave King and his merits were far from enough to stand on equal terms with those giants.

Yet Cain summoned him, so he was here.

Cain did not say a word and kept his eyes closed for several minutes, but none of the presented showed the slightest sign of impatience.

Finally, after nearly ten minutes, he opened his eyes, and a sharp light appeared in them.

“Colonel Sinar, Colonel Hellblazer, step forward.” Lurin and Magnus did as told, moving forward until they stood exactly ten meters away from Cain.

Although Magnus’ background and status were much greater than Lurin’s, that was before, and both shared an equal rank inside the Scarlet Alliance.

While other scions could have seen this as an offense, Magnus was more than happy.

After all, he was standing on the same ground as one of the Scarlet King’s oldest friends, meaning his future was full of potential.

Cain’s eyes glowed with red light as he focused on the duo.

Magnus was able to stand calm, but Lurin was having a hard time remaining relaxed.

“I have inspected your capabilities and aptitudes, and therefore, I will now grant you two the roles of Scarlet Ambassadors.

You will go to the other 80 States in the Prometheus Sector and speak with their rulers.

Guide them into either becoming part of the Scarlet Alliance or leaving the Sector for the next year.” Magnus’s eyes sharpened as he heard that command and understood the importance of his role.

He was chosen for this role not only due to his diplomatic abilities but also because he was the first force outside the north to side with the Scarlet Alliance, allowing people to get an idea of what would happen if they decided to join them.

Lurin, on the other hand, could not help but clench his fists due to the overwhelming responsibility that was being put on his shoulders.

Cain saw his old friend’s reaction.

To be honest, Lurin was not really the most qualified for the job, as there were others with better credentials, but he wanted to give his friend a chance to shine and prove himself.

Of course, that was just a chance, and he would not keep an incompetent in power.

“Lieutenant General Gladius and Scarlet General James will escort you during this mission, and you will be evaluated weekly.

If any fail to make progress or your work is not up to my standard, Scarlet General James has the authority to relieve you of your duties and put someone else in this position.” When the great generals heard those words, many of them softly nodded.

It was right to give your friends a chance to prove themselves, but that should never be mistaken for leaving ignorant people in a position of power since that was how empires failed.
