Chapter 86 Ch 84: A Warning Is Issued [Pt1]
Yohan waited for Anya to fall asleep before turning toward the forest. He whistled softly and Ana the Griffin made her way toward Yohan in a heartbeat.
She tried to check on Anya but Yohan stopped her from touching Anya. The demonic energy inside Anya was still unstable and she was also getting used to Yohan’s mark. It would take some time before she was able to function properly.
Now, if Anya had been a regular familiar, she would have protested against this action. She should have pecked Yohan’s eyes out and even threatened him for trying to separate her from her partner.
But Ana did not do anything of that sort. She backed off as soon as Yohan gave her the order to do so. She was being more obedient to Yohan than even her partner and it was all because of the magic Yohan had used.
Once Ana had settled down and Anya also looked like she would not cause any more trouble, Yohan felt like it was finally time to leave her to her familiar.
Ana will inform Anya of what she needed to know and where she needed to head next. Anya would be her spy in the hunter’s den since they had not yet known of her betrayal.
“I know what you are planning Yohan. But are you sure that it would be alright to send Anya back? What if she goes out of control and causes a problem for us later?”
Zane sounded concerned as he landed at Yohan’s side. Yohan had felt him come so he was not surprised.
As for his question? Yohan had considered it a possibility and had even thought to change up his plan a little to accommodate that possibility. But he had decided against it in the end. And there was a simple reason for that.
“I am not worried about Anya messing up anytime soon. Since Anya is under my control, I am sure I will be able to handle her. Besides, what do I have to fear at this point?”
Having tested the skills of the hunters of this realm, Yohan knew that none of them could compare to him in terms of skill and magic. He could snap his finger and they would all die.
What he was concerned about were the higher plains and the holy tribes. Divine power was the only thing that could threaten Yohan at this point.
Well that, and the rulers of the other hell floors. But that was why Yohan was preparing to overcome them. And he had a plan for most of them at this point.
“Well, enough of this game for now. Did you manage to take care of everyone else who was a threat?” Yohan’s question caused Zane to sigh.
“Yeah, I did take a look around. Do you want me to dispose of them or use them as our pawns?”
Yohan considered Zane’s offer. It would help to have more people with divine power under his control but it would become difficult to hide their presence with a large number.
Yohan was mostly going for quality over quantity at this point.
“Just kill them off so that they don’t become a problem for us later. Also, make sure you take care of our people, and those who can be saved get immediate treatment.”
Zane let out a satisfied smile at Yohan’s words. Their king was finally coming around well and he could not be more proud of him.
It had taken a long time to get their king to this point but Yohan was finally beginning to feel and think like a demon king.
//////////////////////////////////////////
A lot of people had been killed by the hunters but just as many had managed to survive this attack. Everyone was brewing with the need for vengeance and that was why Zane had to hold them back.
He knew that they would go after Anya if they got to know who she was but Yohan would kill them all if they did so.
“Boss, you cannot be serious. That person is a hunter. Surely you cannot allow a hunter to roam around like this?”
“Yeah, boss. Why do you want to bow in front of that friend of yours? You are the greatest demon in this realm. Surely you do not have any need to bow your head in front of anyone.”
Zane heard everyone complain all at once. The pressure he felt was immense and he could not keep up with these people. But even then, just the thought of going against Yohan was too much for his heart.
Facing Yohan was a sure death for him and Zane had no intention of dying today.
“Everyone, calm down. There is no need for us to fight since this hunter is now a part of our group. If any of you have a problem with this, then you can fight Yohan for the right to expel her.”
Every vampire who was present on the scene looked at Yohan with angry eyes. Their gazes looked ready to burn Yohan alive and Zane preyed for all of their safety.
‘But if these people are foolish enough to attack Yohan to take revenge, then it is their fault if they get killed. I did warn them so it is no longer my concern what happens to them.’
And since this was the case, Zane felt so much lighter. Being a leader was hard that it sometimes made him wonder why he even agreed to this in the first place.
The other vampires looked toward Yohan with angry eyes but there was hesitation in their eyes as well. They had not seen Yohan’s power but not only had he managed to subdue the hunter that had killed most of them, but he also had Zane under his palm.
They did not doubt that he was powerful and not someone they could mess around with. But not everyone could contain their anger toward Yohan and ended up attacking.
“Darn you! My lover got killed because of your little hunter. I will kill you-”
The vampire was dead even before he had moved. Those were the last world he was able to get out and not even a scream was spared from his mouth.
Meanwhile, Yohan just looked at everyone with calm and bored eyes. It seemed as if he had not even done anything and that made everyone take a step back from him.
“So, anyone else wants to say something to me? If not, then I should be going now.”
Yohan stood up from his seat once it looked like no one was going to make any more moves on him. He had shown such an overwhelming power that it made everyone else take a step back.
Even now, the aura of magic he gave off made the vampires fall to their knees, and trying to breathe through that tense atmosphere was hard.
“Yohan, I know that you are pissed off but you should calm down now. I am sure our brave but foolish followers have learned thier lessons.”
Zane tried to make Yohan calm down for the sake of everyone else in the base. He had just managed to save their lives, so he did not want to see these people die because they were foolish enough to challenge Yohan.
Yohan was easy to handle if you knew what switched to push. And as long as you did not push Yohan’s temper, it would be easy to curb his anger.
“Fine, I will let them go because you asked me to. But don’t expect me to extend this courtesy to these fools again. Now, tell me what we have to do next?”
Yohan finally let this matter go and the vampires who had been tense until now collapsed with the change in this pressure.
Zane gestured for the vampires behind them to run away so that they would not be hurt again. And this time, no one questioned his words as they ran away.
“Well, since we finally checked this place out, I think it is time to pay a well-awaited visit to the Saint’s Head Quarters. I got a call from their representatives while you were busy chasing Anya.”
That call had been something Zane had not expected to receive so soon. And it made the situation suspicious for Zane to disregard.
It almost seemed as if the Saints’ side was worried about something and in a hurry to get Yohan to visit them. It was a bold move to make for an organization as big as Saint’s.
“I see. Then, I expect you to make all the preparations for our visit. Inform me when it is time for us to leave.”
Yohan waved his hand as he left the base he had just traumatized. Zane had expected this to happen but he had no idea that he would have to be the one to clean up after Yohan like this.
He turned toward the rest of the people who stood behind him and watched their expressions. Most of them looked resigned to see Yohan’s power but some would be trouble in the future.
Still, it was a problem for the future and Zane would deal with them when the time comes.
“Everyone, listen carefully and abide by my words. Treat Yohan with respect and fear in the future because he is someone you cannot hope to match.”
Most of the people below looked surprised at Zane’s words and those who were smart enough to catch his warning would live.
