Chapter 392 A Demon Lord Named Sparda

The flame power that erupted at the end was the symptom of overloading magic power for Sareth, causing him to be unconscious for three days.

After opening his eyes, Sareth saw a skull. But this face, which was terrifying to ordinary people, made him feel exceptionally close “Mother Cassandra…”

That’s right. The one standing by his bedside was Lich Cassandra. Seeing that he had regained consciousness, she felt relieved. “Sareth, why were you so reckless?”

“Fortunately, your foster father teleported back in time. Or else, who knows where you would’ve been taken…” Cassandra sighed. “Get up. Master wants to see you.” “Okay!” Sareth nodded and got up from the bed. It seemed that after this incident, he had matured and become a little more steady.

After Sareth stood up, Cassandra handed him two balls of light. “Eat something first.”

Sareth did not waste any time as he took the souls and threw them into his mouth. Feeling the souls transforming into magic power in his stomach and flowing through his body to replenish his exhausted magic power, he immediately became much more energetic.

Due to his demon bloodline, Sareth could also use souls to strengthen himself. But unlike ordinary demons, he did not have Soul Devouring Addiction. In other words, souls were a perfect addition to him. Devouring souls would increase his magic power, but it would still slowly grow without devouring them.

This growth was a talent that ordinary demons did not have. As demons survived longer, they would only increase their physical strength and not their magic power. This was the greatest difference between demon-human hybrids and demons.

Cassandra stretched out her bony palm for Sareth to hold. Sareth did not mind the cold touch of her hand at all and happily held it. The two of them left the room and headed for the palace.

Benia and Julia had just returned today. Roy’s sudden disappearance from the battlefield made Julia and the others realize that something might have happened to the territory, so they could only hurriedly gather the spoils of war and rush back. Unexpectedly, after returning, they found out that it was because of Sareth.

Thus, Benia looked at Sareth with a foul expression when he appeared in the hall.

Sareth did not dare to look at Benia. He could only look up at Roy on the throne and say quietly, “Foster Father, you’re back?” Roy grinned and waved at him. “Come here!”

Sareth cheered in a low voice, hurried to Roy’s feet, and looked up at him. Roy placed his hands on his knees and looked down at the little guy. “Sareth, do you have anything to

say?”

“Sorry, Foster Father!” Sareth’s face collapsed when he heard this. He stammered, “I made a mistake…”

“What else? Who else should you apologize to?” Roy asked.

Sareth quickly turned around and apologized to Julia, Benia, and Cassandra one by one. “Sorry, Mother Julia, Mother Benia, Mother Cassandra. I’ve caused you trouble…” After Julia heard this, she smiled and rubbed Sareth’s hair. Benia could not continue maintaining her foul expression, so she snorted and turned her head away.

“Sareth!” Roy waited for him to apologize before continuing, “You’re a demon-human hybrid, and I’ve never hidden this from you. You should know that you’re different from pure demons. Half of the bloodline in your body is human, so I haven’t treated you according to the demons’ way of nurturing. So, do you know how true demons grow up?”.

Sareth hesitated for a moment before nodding. “I know. I’ve heard Mother Benia say that every little demon will be sent into rivers when they’re still demon eggs and drift into the Sea of Birth. After hatching, they will fight each other…”

“Yes. The reason for this is that only the strong can survive among demons and obtain the opportunity to survive!” Roy nodded. “I also lived like this back then.”

Sareth listened quietly, not daring to interrupt. Roy stood up, walked down from the throne, and said as he walked, “But what you may not know is that even a cruel and bloodthirsty race like demons will not dare to attack demon eggs and newborn little demons. Demons are a race that value bloodlines, and protecting the young is an instinct, so when your Mother Cassandra wanted to keep you, I agreed.”

“To be honest, I don’t know if it’s good or bad to keep you. After all, I was the one who killed your biological father!” Roy then explained Sareth’s background in detail.

During this process, Sareth’s expression kept changing, and Cassandra and Benia were paying attention to his expression.

After Roy finished speaking, Sareth did not say anything for a long time before finally letting out a long sigh. “Foster Father, Kha-Beleth you mentioned, I… I have no impression of him. He can’t even be called my father.”

When Sareth said this, he appeared resolute and decisive. The truth was indeed so. Although demons had the need to reproduce, not every demon got along with their parents. Demons were very indifferent to this concept, and Kha-Beleth could only be regarded as giving Sareth half of his bloodline. It would be a joke if Sareth had any feelings for this guy whom he had never seen before.

On the other hand, after hearing that Isabel had entrusted him to Cassandra before she died, many inexplicable glows appeared in Sareth’s eyes.

“Your biological mother, Isabel, is still around, but she was the Chosen of the Dragon of Light. In the end, she was bestowed with power by Elrath, and after she died, she was reborn as a seraph,” Roy explained. “But what’s troublesome is that after we left Ashan, I’ve always been trying to find ways to inquire about the situation of Ashan, but there is no news. That world… seems to have been completely destroyed because of the appearance of the Dragon of Chaos, Urgash. In the Infinite Worlds, I haven’t found any news about Ashan, so I don’t know how your mother, Isabel, is.”

“No need. I won’t look for her either!” Sareth smiled self-deprecatingly and looked at his palm. “Moreover, she has already become an angel. Is it possible for her to acknowledge me as I am now?”

Roy looked at him in surprise and found that Sareth seemed to have matured a little. It seemed like it was not only because of his near-death experience. Perhaps for a man, this bizarre life experience was really a catalyst for his maturity. If I had known, I should have told him earlier.

“Okay, you can think about these things yourself!” Roy said. “No matter what, since you call me foster father, I will always protect you. Regardless of whether you think you’re a human or a demon, it’s not important to me. But you acted recklessly this time and put yourself in danger, so it made me understand some things. I can’t let you stay in Frostfire City anymore. It’s time to let you go out and gain experience.”

Sareth raised his head in surprise and cried out bitterly, “Foster Father?! Are you chasing me away?”

“How is that possible?” Roy laughed. He lowered his head and rubbed Sareth’s hair with his fingers. “I just want you to go out and live alone for a while. I believe that you’ve also seen that only powerful strength can guarantee your survival. You’re half-demon, and your bloodline is destined to cause you a lot of trouble. I can save you once or twice, but I can’t save you forever. You have to learn to protect yourself and learn to use your powerful talent and strength.”

“Do you want me to go to the upper Abyss?” Sareth asked weakly. “No, I can’t let you stay in the Abyss!” Roy shook his head. “Your bloodline is immense stimulation for demons. It’s too dangerous to let you stay in the Abyss. I just want you to train and gain experience, not die. So, go through a Gate of the Abyss and go to a human world!”

“Human… World?” When Sareth heard this term, he suddenly felt a little apprehensive. For him, who grew up in the Abyss, he actually felt that human worlds were strange and terrifying

“Yes!” Roy nodded. Seeing the fear in his heart, he said, “Of course, although I’m calling it training, I actually have a mission to give to you. Sareth, can I trust you?”

Hearing Roy’s words, Sareth suddenly became energetic. He looked up and said in disbelief, “Foster Father, you… you said you have a mission for me?!”

“Yeah. How about it?” Roy asked.

“Really… really? No, I mean… I… I…” Sareth was a little incoherent.

When he suddenly heard that he could actually carry out a mission, this trust that made him feel like an adult made him feel at a loss.

Only

After a while, he mustered his courage and said, “Yes, Foster Father. Leave it to me!”

Roy walked back to the throne and sat down before saying to Sareth, “It’s been nine years since I brought you here. In fact, during these nine years, I have been trying to go to other worlds in the Infinite Worlds. However, the world repulsive force is much more sensitive when sensing demon lords, and it’s also much stronger. I can no longer go to other worlds like in the past. At most, I can only rely on magic to create a projection clone to go. But the power of this projection clone is too weak and doesn’t even have a tenth of my power. Under such circumstances, I can’t collect souls very well at all.

“And you, Sareth, the demon-human bloodline allows you to travel freely between the Infinite Worlds and the Abyss. So the mission I’m giving you is to find a way to help me collect a large number of souls or summon me through the offering ritual after you go to the human world!” Roy looked at him attentively. “Collecting souls might be relatively simple, but it’s not easy to complete the offering ritual. You can choose this yourself.”

“Okay!” Sareth nodded hurriedly.

“In addition, the world you’re going to this time is a little special!” Roy took out a Demon Bible stele from the system space and handed it to Sareth. “This thing is called the Demon Bible. There are seven in total. An unknown number of years ago, a demon lord named Sparda brought one of the Demon Bible to a certain world. The most important mission you have in this world is to find out the whereabouts of Sparda and the Demon Bible. It’s best if you can get it. If you can’t, you can summon me to get it personally!

“I call this world the Devil May Cry world. During the three days you were unconscious, I’ve located this world!” Roy said. “But this world is also facing a demon invasion, so you have to protect yourself after you go. Understand?”

In fact, this news was also related to Roy’s war with Demon Lord Saratos. Roy had learned that Saratos had a Demon Bible stele in his hands, but in the end, when Roy was about to kill Demon Lord Saratos, he told the truth that the stele had been taken away by a demon lord named Sparda many years ago… After a few months of war, this was the outcome. Roy was furious, so he directly twisted Salatos’s head off…

“Yes, Foster Father!” Sareth took the Demon Bible stele and looked at it carefully, firmly engraving the appearance of this thing in his heart…
