Village Head's Debauchery
chapter-993

The sloth demons in the air soon began to disperse one by one, lowering themselves to hover slightly above the platform. The silhouette of an awe-inspiring beast, tens of meters tall, with four legs covered in red fur and several ashen-pink bony structures protruding from its body, appeared. It glided through the air, surrounded by an oppressive, dense energy.

Korrin was stunned, not just by the size of the beast but also by its immense pressure.

Is this a Legendary Beast? No! It almost seems Mythical in nature!

Although magical beasts could utilize different ranks of energy, their unique bloodlines and inherited methods placed them in their own category. They were ranked as Ordinary, Extraordinary, Lesser, Sacred, Rare, Revered, Legendary, Mythical, Immortal, and Divine.

In truth, because of the oppressive energy emanating from the beast, which far surpassed Korrin's own, he would have classified it as an Immortal beast if he hadn't known how scarce those magical beasts were.

As Korrin scrutinized the enormous creature, it did the same to him. He soon noticed a few individuals standing on its back. One of them, a winged sloth demon, surged forward, prompting Korrin to tighten his grip on his Gearweaver sword.

"Who are you?! How dare you attack the Sleeping Fox Runaway City?! Explain yourself immediately!" Commander Vargoth's voice boomed across the atmosphere as he hovered before Korrin, staring at him intently, his broad wings spread wide.

"I am Korrin, Captain of the 2nd Unit Vanguard Team of the Trekking Flamingo Runaway City. I have been sent by the Supreme Leader to retrieve the Divine Artefact and Patriarch Rylan peacefully," Korrin responded, scrutinizing the sloth demon who had just descended from the beast, sensing the strength emanating from him.

After the beast's sudden emergence, he realized things had become much more dire than he had imagined. However, he knew he couldn't retract his previous statements, so he chose his words carefully.

Suddenly, one of the sloth demons below, protecting the Leaders of the Sleeping Fox Runaway City and dressed in mixed metal and leather armour that shielded his body and wings, wielding a Gearweaver sword in his hand, soared into the air and instantly arrived before them.

"Commander," he greeted before explaining everything that had transpired during Korrin's arrival.

As the sloth demon spoke, Commander Vargoth's expression grew more solemn by the second.

"Is that all that's occurred?" Commander Vargoth asked, glancing at the captured members of Korrin's team.

The sloth demon nodded. "Yes."

Receiving confirmation that the gods' chosens before him were indeed from the Trekking Flamingo Runaway City, which he had already guessed, Commander Vargoth refocused on Korrin and narrowed his eyes. "How brazen for the Trekking Flamingo Runaway City to send a Unit Captain to meet us and make demands. It seems their imminent promotion to Grade Two has made you all begin to look down on the prowess of a Grade One Runaway City. Tell me, how do you want your wings clipped?" he responded coldly.

Korrin's expression had already become stern, his hand tightening around the handle of his Gearweaver sword as he learned that the individual standing before him was the Commander of the Sleeping Fox Runaway City. Despite his strength, he was not ignorant of the man's capabilities. Anyone capable of becoming the Commander of the gods' chosens and Chief Security of their Runaway City was undoubtedly formidable.

Noticing something, Korrin shifted his focus to the green-skinned orc standing on the beast's back, then to the tall, muscular masked man dressed in fitted red trousers and a shirt with armoured padding in various places, wearing a fiery red mask.

He immediately sensed that this man was neither from the Wanderlust Travelling Tortoise Runaway City nor the Sleeping Fox Runaway City. The only plausible origin was 'Paradise.' Determined, Korrin immediately advanced in his direction.

Witnessing this scene, Commander Vargoth trailed Korrin, swiftly blocking his path with a deep frown.

Seeing his way forward obstructed, Korrin raised his voice, "Are you the one that captured the Sleeping Fox Runaway City and the Wanderlust Travelling Tortoise Runaway City and caused their supreme leaders to cede their authority? Are you from Paradise?" His words echoed through the tense atmosphere as he awaited the masked man's response.

"Such insolence!" Commander Vargoth's anger boiled upon hearing Korrin's words. With Paradise having granted them authority to subdue and capture the Trekking Flamingo Runaway City, he no longer hesitated and charged towards Korrin.

Korrin's eyes narrowed to slits as he watched Commander Vargoth swiftly closing in on him. He tried to dodge, but it was too late. In the blink of an eye, Commander Vargoth stood before him, ready to deliver a powerful strike to his abdomen.

Gritting his teeth angrily, Korrin swiftly raised his Gearweaver sword to block Commander Vargoth's strike.

BANGG!!

A powerful gust of wind radiated outward from the impact, launching Korrin backwards, his hands growing numb.

Before Korrin could steady himself, Commander Vargoth closed in from behind and gripped his wings tightly.

"CAPTAIN!" Another scream erupted from one of the Arakocra's gods' chosens chained below. Before they could react, several powerful kicks slammed down on them once more, sending them crashing back to the ground with even more severe injuries.

"STOP! I AM SENT BY THE SUPREME LEADER OF THE TREKKING FLAMINGO RUNAWAY CITY! IF YOU DO ANYTHING TO ME, YOU'LL BE DECLARING WAR AGAINST US!" Korrin shouted, his voice thundered through the air, even as he felt Commander Vargoth's firm grip on his broad wings. Yet, his tone no longer carried the same arrogance as before; instead, it was laced with fear and anxiety.

As a winged race, his wings were his pride and the source of his strength as an Arakocra. If they were torn or destroyed, it would not only be shameful but also cripple him entirely.

"The Sleeping Fox Runaway City and the Wanderlust Travelling Tortoise Runaway City have been given the chance by Paradise to prove themselves by subduing and capturing the Trekking Flamingo Runaway City!" Commander Vargoth responded loudly, his voice echoing across the surroundings and reaching the ears of everyone present.
