"My guess is that it is not that the humans can't take that region but they have no need to. The demons within this territory can't even hope for some backup to resist the neighboring territories. Meanwhile, these neighboring territories have colluded with each other. They send their men within the Territory, hunt Demons or beasts, and sell them to an organization in the black market. After all, an ice-type beast's organs, beast core, and an Ice Demons' core and organs are bound to be precious." This caused Helena to grit her teeth in anger.
She was a Demon Lord. To know that the Humans were selling the organs and cores of her brethren, she couldn't help but want to kill them.
Saito said to her, "You will go there. You are going to unite the demons within that place. There shouldn't be a demon as strong as a demon lord so nobody will be your match. Just make them submit to your power. However, do make sure to try this in an inner area."
His voice was incredibly serious when he said, "And I will say it now, do not kill any humans within that region. Unless you are about to be killed or they have you cornered, don't kill any human. In fact, don't appear in front of them at all. Keep your forces on the other side of the mountain so that it would be hard for them to approach you and your forces."
"But they are killing my brethren and selling their body parts. How can I just sit when I encounter it-?" Saito suddenly slapped her face very hard.
To slap a Demon Lord. It has been the first time that she had been slapped so tightly in her entire life.
Saito said with a cold look, "Listen well, I don't really care about whether you can sit or not. I will just say this, I will speak a single sentence and your location will be known all over the world. You should know what will happen then, right? Now choose, what will it be… Your life or your foolish morals?"
Helena took a moment to respond to him. She then looked at him with furious face, "You are threatening me!?"
"Exactly. I am surprised you took so long to figure that out." Saito indifferently says to her.
"So, you will kill me if I don't obey your orders?" Helena asked him while gritting her teeth.
Saito nodded his head. He then pointed at her face and said, "Well, if you are planning on obeying me only on the surface and still save those demons from being captured or killed by humans then let me tell you, there is a reddish glow on your face right now."
"Reddish Glow?" Helena said before she carefully observed the area around her face. From the corner of her eyes, she could see the reddish glow being emitted by her face.
"What is this!?" She could sense a huge aura within this reddish aura. And what she found even more unacceptable was that the core was inside her skull.
"I have left a bit of my magic within your head. Now… If I ever hear that you have disobeyed my orders. I will play with a coin…" Saito pulled out a coin. He pointed at heads and said, "If it comes heads then you will live but the information about your location will be known around the world. If it comes tails then in the next moment, you would be moving towards the afterlife."
"What!?" His words utterly shocked Helena. It was like he thought of her life as nothing more than a game. She looked at his smile and couldn't help but back away a little.
He had even managed to push his magic energy within his head without even letting her know. It truly shocked her when he had managed to achieve this.
Saito then spoke out, "Now… if you think that you would be able to diffuse my magic within your head. Well, I really hope you don't try it. The state of your body won't be pretty." His casual words seemed like they stabbed Helena's heart.
This was exactly what she was thinking. However, she understood that this plan was going to be useless. Since he said so much, obviously there was no escape route left for her now.
Before meeting Saito, she only had to keep herself out of reach of Alvaneth. Even if she had to keep on running for her whole life, changing locations after every 2 days. It was at least possible.
However, now, if she chose to betray Saito, her life was going to oscillate between moving to the afterlife and running from Alvaneth forever. What made it even worse for her was that her fate was going to be decided by a coin.
A Demon Lord, respected in all directions of the world. Her fate was going to be decided by the lowly copper coin found in the poverty struck areas.
Saito observed her reactions and seemed satisfied. He started speaking, "Looks like you understand your situation. I won't be too ruthless to you. Your only task is to unite around 10,000 demons. It doesn't matter if they are weak or strong. With weak bloodline or strong bloodline. Survive on the Arctic Hills. Keep yourself aloof from the other matters from the world. Follow these orders and I assure you that Alvaneth wouldn't be able to get to you for a long time."
His promise seemed to hold a lot of weight. From what Helena had realized after talking so much with Saito. He was a smart individual. Every time he speaks something, he had thought out the issues and knew how to deal with them.
The only thing which still dissatisfied her was that. This was the same as imprisoning her. She still couldn't believe that someone of her power was forced to hide on a hill. She slowly nodded her head while having her own thoughts about Saito's orders.
Saito didn't care about those thoughts. He immediately ordered her, "Go straight towards the Arctic Hills then. I will contact you after a week. If you aren't on the Arctic Hills then I will blow you. Unlike that idiot Alvaneth, my skill isn't limited by range. I can blow you apart even if you are in another dimension. So, it's best if you follow through with my orders. In return, you won't need to fear being chased by Alvaneth."
Obviously, she wasn't pleased with his words. But his last line did relieve her. She nodded her head and started moving straight in the direction he was pointing.
The angle of this new direction varied from 25-30 degrees east of the previous direction. Saito was naturally doing this so that she wouldn't get close to the Elf Kingdom. If a Demon Lord level figure passed around that area. There was a small chance that the Demon Lord would be alerted of the presence of Elves.
It was a small chance but regardless. Saito didn't want to count off his luck. Besides, in that direction, he had another secret.
The Sea Dragons! They were residing around 100 miles west of the Elf Forest. The Elves probably haven't even realized that the forest next to them was filled with loud and robust Sea Dragons.
The forest was vast. Saito had previously toured this forest so he was sure that the Sea Dragons could live here without an issue.
A large river whose water was stored in a vast lake was present in the western part of the forest. The number of beasts was abundant as well. It didn't really take these Sea Dragons more than a day to become the rulers of the woods.
Crimson, Saito's Pet was the King of these Sea Dragons. He had defeated the previous Sea Dragon King and the 4 strongest Sea Dragons, so no Sea Dragon held any objections.
One of the main reasons was because of his Red-colored body. It was the Ancestral Dragon King from the legend.
These Sea Dragons still had no idea that Crimson was Saito's pet. It would undoubtedly be hard for them to accept the fact that the Ancestral Dragon King from the legend was a human's pet.
Saito knew that he had to resolve this issue quickly. Or else, they won't listen to his command. Though Crimson was his pet and they would undoubtedly obey his commands. To use these Sea Dragons, he required them to acquire a firm understanding of humans.
He closed his eyes and mentally sent out a command to Joergen 'Joergen… Where are you right now?'
After some minutes, he received Joergen's reply 'Master… I am at the new Trost Village, right now.'
'And Emma?' Saito asked with some curiosity.
'Emma is with me. She sometimes goes to the grounds to see how the training of Master's men was going on. But mostly, she stays with me.' Saito cut off their mental connection.
He started moving towards the Elf Kingdom.. It was time to inform Tiriana about some of his plans.
