Chapter 37: The reason behind their defeat
After the three women went out, the man reached out his hand toward his golden robe. He put it on his body. Then he looked at his finger which had a black ring on it. Currently that black coloured ring was emitting a faint light.
A yellow coloured paper appeared just above the ring and that man quickly grabbed it. Now he had a wide smile on his face. "I wonder if these idiots are bringing that bitch now", he mutterered and crushed that yellow coloured paper.
Voice of a panicked man appeared after he crushed the yellow coloured paper. The wide smile from his face disappeared gradually and a sinister cold look appeared on his face. He listened to the words of that panicked man silently.
After a while the voice of that panicked man stopped. "All are useless. Now catching that bitch will be very troublesome. It was one of my greatest chance to step on the heaven. But that crazy bastard appeared out of nowhere. Curse that sword devil. I promise I will tear you into pieces if I get a chance", the man shouted with clenched jaw.
"Claus, go catch that bastard who give us wrong information", the man who was wearing the golden robe ordered. "Yes, young master", a middle aged man appeared out of thin air and bowed toward the man. The man nodded and the middle aged man disappeared from his sight.
"I will not let these bastards go. They will pay for their boasting. Protectors of Thousand swords kingdom are dead or heavily injured! What a joke? For these bastards my carefully prepared plan go to waste. I wonder if that bitch will inform his father about this incident", the golden robed man muttered with clenched jaw.

"This guy has become more powerful, soon other two will also come out. Anyone who is trying to fish in troubled water will pay greatly if these three will act together",old woman Adaline said softly.
"Other kingdoms will find out the appearance of sword devil and they will be cautious", Lucas replied from side.
"Evan, you stay out of these. You are still too young", Brianna said sternly. Evan nodded and walked out of the room.
"Wait, little Evan~", Sophie shouted and followed after him. After two of them walked out of the room, old woman Adaline smiled slightly while looking at the direction of Evan. "This little brat is becoming more clever", she added.
"He has been reading all sorts of scrolls in the library. Even I have felt headache whenever I read them. Those scrolls depicting wars, powerful rulers and rise and fall of empires even some random cultivation techniques were finished by him already", Lucas also joined the conversation.
"He was just talking like a wise man but I bet he will go towards river to play with that crocodile", Olivia added while laughing sweetly. There was a adoring expression on her face when she talked about Evan. Everyone laughed after listening to the comments of Olivia.
"I am sure Renshaw is still searching for that boy who can control Ironback blue wolves. He wants to bring that boy to capital but it is a pity that he couldn't see his appearance clearly due to the distance. But he said that beast tamer was a very young boy. Maybe a little kid of eight to ten years", Adaline said.
"I am also feeling intrigued by that boy. What is his motive? Why did he help us? The most notable thing is he can control beasts in such a young age", Brianna said while raising her eyebrows.
Are you going to answer the summon of King Mario?",Adaline asked Lucas.
"It is not the time yet", Lucas shook his head.
"Golden orb sect is also getting restless lately. I hope appearance of this madman make them change their plan", Lucas further added.
Old lady Adaline shook his head and said, "Golden Orb sect will not stop just for Renshaw. They have a lot of strong fighters as well. Now that Thousand sword kingdom had no capable ruler, they will likely want to conquer Thousand swords kingdom.
Afterall all the powerful forces have been coveting the cultivation resources and sword arts of thousand sword kingdom. Now that a chance has appeared, they will not let this chance slip to destroy the Thousand swords kingdom."
"Ok, let me give you a warning. Appearance of Renshaw is not necessarily a good thing for us. Now that Evan's father is missing and his grandfather has long gone to seclusion, there is no one in kingdom who can control Renshaw.
"I hope old king can clear that step and emerge alive. That will bring us out of this hopeless situation", Lucas sighed.
...
Meanwhile when everyone was worrying about the troubles, Evan came to the place of Levi. Levi was still practicing his sword. Sophie followed after Evan. Levi stopped his practice and looked toward Evan and Sophie.
"Princess, you have also come", Levi said. A group of kids of same ages as Levi and Sophie also reached following after Evan and atmosphere grew rowdy in no time.
Evan tried to enjoy himself as much as he could. He knew he would be leaving soon. So, he was trying to enjoy himself as much as he could.
While playing in the river bank, Evan involuntarily recalled his most painful past. There was too much incidents going on in these few days and the war brought out his old scars to his mind again.
In that apocalyptic war countless devils had fallen. Enemies were countless like the endless cloud before rain. Despite the overwhelming majority of enemies, they couldn't defeat the devils easily. The proud devils fought bravely till their last breath. Evan clenched his fists in anger.
Before Cerberus left for his slumber, he imprinted scenes of that war in the brain of Evan. Gods and devils were powerful. But from where did those countless enemies come from?
??????
????????????
Evan already found the answer. It was the humans!
