Chapter 286: I Shall Battle for Another Thousand Years in Here

When it comes to his internet, Fang Ning’s procrastination was instantly cured. He went straight to the Draconic Penitentiary and heard Anderson’s voice from afar.

“You’re a War Demon after all, so proficient in everything combat-based. Within a few minutes, you’ve already understood the essence of spiritually-controlled mech battles. So much smarter than those other souls. That’s a shame, we can’t arrange for you to carry bricks.

“Sir Warden is a kind man, you have to thank him. As long as you work hard to earn money, you can have the pills. You’ve lost your life, but your spirit lives on.”

‘What is this situation?’

Fang Ning heard Anderson’s tone of voice and thought, ‘The supervillain Lei Tian, who was still so hot-blooded and claimed to fight for another thousand years, would give up within minutes?’

He arrived at Lei Tian’s cell and saw Anderson who was instilling him with the re-education of love and justice.

Anderson turned around and greeted him. Their attitude was extra respectful, it was as if Anderson was greeting the emperor himself.

Their respect came from the amazement at the Venerable Dragon God’s might as well as an indescribable gratitude.

In the Upper Realm, due to their background as a Soul Consumption Demon, they were strong but often looked down upon.

Even other demons were treating them the same way. It was why they could only survive with their talent and wide knowledge.

If they seek shelter from the strong individuals, they would be doubted and would never hold an important position, otherwise, they would not have descended so early.

On the other hand, War Demons were always demon lords’ right-hand demon, there were even War Demons who became demon lords themselves.

Lei Tian had a chance to become a demon lord himself, but he missed his timing.

If Vigilante A had not interrupted, he would definitely become a demon lord.

Many of Anderson’s clansmen had been hunted down by Lei Tian’s clansmen as well. They actually had it coming… Who could permit a clan whose sole purpose was to consume other souls?

However, Anderson would not have thought of that. They could only see that the elite among War Demons was currently living under his management.

Now that they feel avenged, the satisfaction could not be expressed.

However, Anderson was smart. They would not rub salt into the wound. Instead, they would tell the facts while slipping in a few ambiguous insults.

“Sir, the War Demon was nothing like other War Demons. His cooperation was never seen before. I didn’t even have to do much before he asked to join our spiritually-controlled mech battle team to help you accrue wealth. From what I can see, his talent could become a star in the game without any problems.”

Fang Ning nodded. It was a shame that his game book was not with him. He would’ve been able to see that Lei Tian’s hobby was ‘battling and anything combat-related.’

Individuals like this who do not believe in fate or gods while being obsessed with something were easy to handle.

His two other neighbors were not so easy. It had already been months, but they were still praying for a miracle to happen, their faith was not shaken at all.

Lei Tian heard it and huffed. “As long as I can still battle, what’s wrong with cooperating with you? As for a Soul Consumption Demon like you, how could you understand a true warrior’s heart?”

Fang Ning did not waste time and asked him directly, “Your oath, the curse, can you take it back?”

Lei Tian shrieked in laughter. “What, true dragons like you would be afraid of my oath to Heaven’s Path coming true?”

‘Nonsense, if I weren’t worried that the internet would be disturbed, would I come and look for you immediately?’

Of course, Fang Ning would not say that. He reprimanded Lei Tian, “You insolent demon! I am the guardian of the public, so how could I allow demons to spread chaos and strife? You might be able to battle all you want, but how would the citizens live?”

Lei Tian said nonchalantly, “If they want to live, they can be a warrior. If they’ve won, they can stay, if they’ve lost, ah well, reincarnate and try again.”

Fang Ning’s face darkened. He despised the powerhouses who do not care about normal people’s lives and who think they could arrange the fate of normal people as they want.

First of all, Fang Ning had always thought of himself as a normal person.

Second of all, which of his internet, online games, webnovels, and all the other entertainments could be provided by the so-called powerhouses?

They were all supplied by the normal people who worked in basic services industries. This would not have changed even if it was a new era.

If everyone became warriors in order to defend themselves, what else can he do for entertainment?

Lei Tian felt a mysterious sense of danger. His Persona Partition activated on its own and the alters ‘Fight’, ‘Flight’, and ‘Hold’ appeared.

‘Flight’ was desperate. “Is our host really that stupid? What is this place, he dares to talk back to the manager of this place? Did he want to expire completely?”

‘Hold’ said helplessly, “I don’t know if he is really stupid, but I do know that he’s gonna get it.”

‘Fight’ was also not as indignant as before. “I could tell, this prison was so odd, it may not be able to break out of here.”

Lei Tian heard that and immediately knew that he had said something wrong.

He did not expect the manager of the prison to be so powerful.

Even the feared Soul Consumption Demon was listening to him, but he actually cared about normal people?

With the secret technique of splitting his soul, he was able to find the most suitable means of handling a situation in a split second, despite his craze for battle.

Because of that, he was seen as an intelligent and sly War Demon.

Everyone including the Heliotrope, Claude, and Black Cat Tom thought the same.

Obviously, at this point, all three of his alters did not want him to raise a grievance with the manager.

He immediately tried to remedy the situation he got himself into and said, “My oath was already sworn. The Lower Realm’s Heaven’s Path was not something to be trifled with. It had already accepted my Demonic Energy, so I think it is already looking for someone to gift this Demonic Energy to cultivate the Path of Demons.

“If lions were created, tigers would exist to counteract them, and so will wolves and eagles. The fight for domination had always happened in nature. Since Vigilante A cultivates the Path of Heavenly Punishment, he should know this. The Heaven’s Path was not a consistent thing. All lives were nothing special in its eyes, as it only cares for their value.

“I can’t take my oath back, not in this lifetime. However, the Heaven’s Path here is really fair. After it accepted my sacrifice of Demonic Energy, it allowed me to continue battling. This place is really nice, actually. I shall battle for another thousand years in here!”

In the end, its true color was shown as he shrieked in laughter again.

‘This *sshole was really impervious to reason, definitely a chaotic bastard.’

Having listened until now, Fang Ning had already understood why Lei Tian’s explosion was so strong, yet no one was able to capture any of his smoke clouds.

Only the System was able to imprison his soul completely. Not only was the System strong, the bigger reason was that the Heaven’s Path was fulfilling this masochist’s wishes. Otherwise, the System would only be able to imprison an incomplete soul.

Fang Ning told Anderson with his best poker face, “This dude might be very strong, but we still have to pay attention to his thought process. We have to lead him toward the true meaning of love and justice.”

Anderson immediately understood and guaranteed, “As you wish, sir.”

Fang Ning left in disappointment. The only thing to do was to count on the System to work overtime and find the person chosen to cultivate the Path of Demons. That was to prevent them from bringing chaos to the world and disrupt Fang Ning’s internet businesses.

Soon after, Vigilante A left the island with his followers in tow.

The island had only Bodhisattva Spirit King and the people of the Truth Department keeping watch.

Now that the Demonic Realm was masterless, it was not a danger to the outside world. Besides, if any problems arise, Vigilante A could get there within moments.

The System would not sit around waiting for something to happen.

…

Cloud Fog City, Siberian Wilderness to the north of China.

A school for the offspring of the city’s employee.

Wang Qi’s twelve-year-old foster daughter, Saki Yamanashi, was laying on the table as she fiddling with her phone.

In front of the classroom, a female teacher projected her voice.

“Everyone, what kind of person do you want to be when you grow up?”

“I wanna be like the Duke and have a huge amount of food, and I want…” said a fat boy as he raced to be the first to answer.

“Hahaha…” laughter burst out in the classroom, filling it with a harmonious mood.

‘A bunch of idiots.’ Saki twitched her lips without an expressed interest to join.

The teacher did her best to ignore the student who does not fit in with the others. She came from the land of the lost, after all.

That was a taboo most regular people would take extra measure to avoid. It was as if the mere utterance of its name would bring curses to them.

Were she not the foster daughter of a citizen and had the right to a proper education, the school would not have admitted her.

In times like this, the spread of information was swift. Saki soon found herself to be ostracized at school. Aside from her phone, she did not have anyone to talk to.

Fortunately, the parents all knew each other. They told their children to ignore her if they do not want to befriend her and to avoid bullying her, this was so that the parents would not be dishonored.

A tall, cool-looking boy stood up.

He glanced at the fat boy with disdain, then pretend to unintentionally glance at the girl from foreigner girl.

He said, “My dream is to become a hero like the Venerable Dragon God. I want to uphold justice and destroy evil so that I can bring world peace…”

Everyone, including the teacher, began to applaud him as they send their admiring looks his way.

The tall boy scratched the back of his head with a slight embarrassment.

However, a girl spoke out.

“Idiot, to become a goal by the likes of you, I pity Sir Dragon God.” Saki Yamanashi taunted.

“How dare you speak like that to your class president, you homeless prick!” Some girls expressed their dissatisfaction.

Saki Yamanashi’s face reddened. She took her phone and rushed out of the classroom.

“You shouldn’t have said that. Please be quiet, don’t destroy the class unity,” said the class president helplessly to his supporters before he chased after her.

The teacher was just watching from the start without doing anything. It wasn’t until after Saki had run out of the classroom that she took out her phone and made a call.

It was not that she was irresponsible, but the school had a regulation against dealing with disobedient students personally and instead, leaving them to the disciplinary office.

There was nothing else they could do. Children were not what they used to be. A nameless student might turn out to have an affinity for the supernatural.

She was just a regular teacher who was in charge of imparting knowledge. As for disciplinary actions, she could only depend on the disciplinary office.

Teachers hired in that department were all Extraordinaires.

Saki Yamanashi ran straight for the mountain behind the school.

It was June, yellow lilies littered the ground in the midst of red trees, painting the scenery with colors.

She opened her arm and yelled at the sky, “Sir Azure Dragon, please, take me away! I don’t want to grow mold in this boring place!”

However, to her disappointment, the mighty dragon had not appeared even once after the rushed peek the last time.

A while later, a voice came from behind her.

“Miss Yamanashi, instead of putting your hopes against another person, why don’t you go and learn to become an Extraordinaire yourself? We’re planning to organize an Extraordinaire Club to prepare for cultivating in the future. If you wish to, I can bring you in…”

Her class president had caught up without her knowing.

Stepping on a brown stone, he said with his head lowered.

“Hmph, are you Chinese boys always so reserved?” Saki did not turn around. She mocked, “You like me, don’t you? You wanna date me?”

The tall class president was just twelve years old. His face immediately turned bright pink. He waved his arm and said, “No, no, I’m only doing my job as a class president, we’re classmates, after all.”

It was then that Saki turned around. She looked at the boy as if looking at a joke and shook her head. “No, my dream guy would be like the Azure dragon, mighty and fearless. Not like you, someone who would blush talking to a girl.”

The tall boy kept quiet. He could speak confidently in front of his class, even in front of the whole school, but he just could not understand why he would act like this in front of the foreign girl.

“However, you’re right,” Saki Yamanashi stole a glance at her phone. “I need to become an Extraordinaire, and then I can look for the Azure dragon. Your Extraordinaire Club, bring me there after school.”

The tall boy immediately cheered up and began talking about the history and background of the club.

Neither of them realized that the picture of the snake head had appeared on Saki’s phone screen. The aura that appeared on it was no longer a faint gray, but as black as coal.
