Ch.146 Sindia and Balik
For a while, Ghost felt a little good. His power was unimpeachable and nobody dared to anger him. He could say and do whatever he wanted and everybody had to obey. Even when he was still back on the South Continent, he could order around Monsters that had yet to become 4th Realm Greater Demons and bully them as he liked as long as they weren’t too close to Asura’s main territory. Of course, it worked the other way around too, but because the Blood Fiends were too cunning, Asura mostly left them alone.
In the South Continent, Ghost was an Emperor! And if it wasn’t for Asura who till this day was many times stronger than him, then he would have been Kaiser! Ruler of the entire Continent!
This had always been his goal and he had full confidence to achieve it. Asura was strong but he was too reclusive. Always training in one way or another and never focusing on increasing the power of his faction or increasing the unity of the Monster races. He didn’t even have any children! At least, none that he knew of.
That was not the way of a Ruler.
If it wasn’t because of that 2-headed oaf that somehow always managed to single-handedly thwart his larger scale attacks on Demon King territories, he was sure that he would have been able to cause chaos within the entire Monster race.
The Crown of Kaiser was practically already in his hands. It was only a matter of time. Sooner or later, more 4th Realm Blood Fiends would have emerged and he would have been able to subjugate a few Demon Kings. Under such a combined force, the so-called King of Monsters would have had nowhere to run to!
But now… That was all SHAMBLES!
The muscles in Ghost’s arms bulged as he furiously clenched his fists, his mood once more plummeting.
‘THAT DAMNED TREE!’ he inwardly roared as he gnashed his teeth.
Everything had been close to perfect! Asura and the oaf would have been dead and the continent would have been his to claim. But then one day, everything had gone completely wrong. And what was worse was that out of the 3 main problems that resulted in his current dilemma… 1 of them had actually spawned and grown under his very own nose!
41 years ago (Year 131, 4 years after the 4th Realm blockade was removed), other than him, there were only 3 other Fiend Lords. ‘Fiend Lords’ is the title that the Blood Fiends gave the 4th Realm beings of their race. Out of those 3 Fiend Lords, 1 of them was a woman and she was named Sindia.
When it came to Blood Fiend names, it was popular for them to have a syllable in their names that rhymed with ‘In’ or ended with ‘Ia’. For example, Jin and Tia. However, at the same time, their names were usually short so it was uncommon to have both sounds in their name. Eventually, it became an unspoken rule that only those of noble association could name their children with both syllables. It didn’t mean that others couldn’t, but if someone of common birth or worse, impure blooded birth, was to have such a name, then it was like a commoner or a slave wearing noble garments. The first would be ridiculed as a poser and the latter might get killed.
Sindia, who could be considered a Primordial Blood Fiend (One of the first few thousand Blood Fiends that had transformed with Ghost over a hundred years ago), was actually the one to start this trend.
This was because, not only was she the strongest of the Fiend Lords, but she was actually one of the most beautiful ones as well. On top of that, she had a relatively kind heart that was rather uncharacteristic for powerful Blood Fiends. And even if it wasn’t a trait that was much appreciated in the Blood Fiend race, it still helped her gain a lot more supporters than the other 2 Fiend Lords.
She was also the closest being to their progenitor. Blood Fiends were certainly not a race that were prone to loving emotions, but many still speculated that Sindia would have ended up giving birth to the first of their Progenitor’s true children. It was the only possible pairing that would have resulted in the most talented children.
That was Sindia.
On a strangely cold day, strange because it was almost always hot in the South Continent, a special feat that had never occurred before in Blood Fiend history had taken place for the first time. A Demon King had been subjugated.
Ghost still didn’t know how it happened, but somehow, Sindia had managed to beguile a Demon King onto their side. Even till today, such a thing had never happened again and the secrets of its possibility were completely unknown. Of course, he had asked back then, but the only answer he had received was that it was because the Demon King had been… enchanted by her beauty.
At first, he hadn’t believed it and almost punished her on the spot, but when he realised the identity of the Demon King who had betrayed his race… he couldn’t help but begin to believe it.
All Monsters were lustful, especially Demon Kings. But this Demon King in particular… It was to a different level!
This Demon King was named Balik and was the ruler of a powerful Monster race known as the Blitzorgs. The Blitzorg race was one of the few Monster races that bore uncanny resemblances to a Beast race and in this case it was the Wolves. They looked like giant wolves with black fur that had interesting purple patterns and they all had purple eyes and purple claws. On top of that, they possessed the daunting ability to wield lightning that was for some reason purple in colour. The lightning was much more powerful than regular lightning and possessed corrosive powers that wouldn’t relent if you didn’t purge it out of your system.
They were truly a powerful species. But instead of being known for their impressive strength, they were more known for their ruler who was unanimously known as the most beautiful man on the Continent. And also known as… the most lustful man on the continent.
That was Balik.
