The result of the Goddess's decision was the Platinum Rank Heroes catching wind of a 'Divinely Beautiful Maiden' to the east of their Country.
At the ti, Jia Lei was inside the Kingdom to the east, the Holy Kingdom of Light, which was a Triple Leafed Kingdom. It possessed many experts in and above the Platinum Rank, with so even surpassing the Ten Astral Principality Princes in pure brute force.
The kingdom itself was expansive and fertile, with lush green adows for as far as the eye could see. But within such a fairy-like land, there lay a deeply seeded malevolence that no amount of bubbly veneer could hope to conceal.
One of the products of this 'malevolence' was the Goddess of Light, a being that was truly capable of summoning heroes from the world called 'Earth'.
She was the ruling Monarch of this Kingdom and was in possession of strength that far surpassed anything that even the Ten Astral Principality Princes could hope to compare to!
It was unknown whether she was actually a god or not. But in the eyes of the Insatiable Loot Goblin, her entire existence looked like nothing more than a large, shiny bag of loot with a god complex.
So, what did he decide to do in response to Jia Lei's plea for help? —a plea that even the elders of her double-leafed Mithros Sect were unable to help her in.
Well, the answer to that was simple…
"Of course I will help a beautiful, kind woman in need. Why would I not?" Azmodeus spoke such words with a kind look in his eyes, attempting to keep a wide grin from overtaking his facial features.
This girl… She practically told the location of every single hero of high standing within both the Vermillion Phoenix Providence and the Holy Kingdom of Light…
With this information, I can begin the hunt right away. And if my speculations are correct, then the number of Physical Existence Points that these 'Heroes' shall give will exceed even what I got from the heroes of Protheus and the other Low-Mortal Realms I exterminated.
Following this thought, he looked toward the stunned girl, practically oozing gratitude from his expression.
However, from her perspective, she interpreted his look as a way to show affection, foe why else would he be so eager to accept a request that he had little to nothing to gain?
It was an iron-clad rule that no heroes could obtain experience points from any other hero upon killing them, no matter which system they had.
In her mind, there was close to nothing that Marquis Amonroth had to benefit from, which was why she planned to propose marriage. She hoped to both get closer to him and obtain assistance in the matter that her family and sect would be helpless in.
But contrary to her expectations, his response was nearly instantaneous, and from the looks of it, he genuinely wanted to help her.
Does he like …? Does that an he thinks I'm pretty? Or maybe he likes my personality… hehe~
Jia Lei giggled a little at the thought of the Marquis favoring her over all other's as the smile on her face only seed to brighten.
With the end of her dance, her sister's followed in their big sister's footsteps and fell for Amonroth just as easily as their sister. With the only difference being that the underage one's simply had extrely good impressions of him.
But regardless of what went through the heads of a bunch of gorgeous ladies in Delulu Land, the one to receive their feelings of affection was in an entirely different world himself—one where there was nothing but him and the everlasting pursuit of benefits!
Benefits… Benefits… F*cking Benefits!
Azmodeus nearly lost control of his emotions for a mont there as he finished up his dance with the last of the older noble ladies. After which, he prepared to bid farewell to everyone before going on the hunt with post-haste!
However, before that mont could co around, a few visitors in clothing beyond luxurious walked through the open door at the front of the mansion.
"..." "..."
When they saw the gloomy Duke walking down a flight of stairs, their eyes imdiately lit up.
"Ahh, how have you been, my dear friend, Doxing? Still grumpy over sothing, I see. Haha!"
A man's gruff voice reverberated, followed by raucous laughter as a man with a relatively roundish figure—wearing a bright red and white cape—walked up to where Doxing was.
The Duke was still in a state of depression when he heard the voice of his King—a voice that instantly took him out of his reverie as his eyes creased up and he shouted, "It's you four, but you're so late!"
He had already made it over to the four newcor's as he outstretched his arms and gave the slightly taller King a great big hug.
The King reciprocated in full as he gave him the burliest bear hug that one could give while saying, "It's nice to see you again, Doxing!"
"You as well, my king!"
"Please, cut it with the formalities and just call Jing Fu or big brother Jing!" The King released the hug and spoke a bit more with Doxing before he let the other three Dukes get so ti with him.
While they were doing that, he made his way toward the real reason that he ca to this party—the big sore thumb in the ballroom—a crimson-haired man with a deanor befitting one who possessed the title of 'Blood-bathed War God'.
"It has been ages since last we t, Amonroth. And from what I rember, you practically ran away from the last ti we saw each other."
The King was already right in front of the Marquis, speaking to him in a way that would make it seem as if they were old friends.
"..."
Azmodeus already knew where this conversation was going, and it was also the reason that he completely dodged him when the Battle of Riveredge Pass concluded.
On the subject of this battle, the result of this long-fought-out war with the Vermillion Phoenix Providence was the eventual victory on the Azura Kingdom's side. This led to imnse amounts of fa for those who helped make it possible!
