Chapter 1982: My Wife, Kids, And A Warm Bed
Mag’s voice was cold, and his heart was cold too.
For his own selfish desire, Josh killed tens of thousands of people just to get more powerful. Such behavior was already no different from the devil’s.
Merante said to Mag, “We have to find him as soon as possible. Given his current power, he could easily annihilate a town without any powerhouses guarding it. The more he kills, the stronger he will be.”
“It isn’t just killing people. I’m afraid his motive is to trigger a new racial war. The devil and he won’t be satisfied with just one or two villages,” Mag said gravely.
“Do you know him very well?”
“I indeed know the enemy pretty well.” Mag laughed self-deprecatingly. It was he who chose not to kill Josh, because he thought he knew Josh well. That was what caused the massacres today.
“Then where can we find him?” Merante asked.
“Let’s comb through the Twilight Forest first. If he isn’t here, then let’s look around the Roth Empire’s borders’ area.” After some pondering, Mag said, “Andre won’t be starting a war in a hurry without straightening out the military first. He’s someone who needs to have total control over the situation. But Josh won’t be waiting. He will definitely create new troubles, and it is completely reasonable for the orcs to attack the Roth Empire in retaliation.”
“Alright. We’ll search for him according to your deduction.” Merante nodded without any doubts about Mag’s deduction.
Awesome. I didn’t expect Alex to be such a strategist apart from being powerful. He’s so admirable.
?Noah looked at Mag with adoration.All of them boarded the griffin again. Mag let Ah Zi comb the Twilight Forest.
The detection range of 800 km made the originally difficult to achieve carpet search doable.
However, the Twilight Forest was very vast. It still took two hours to search it even with Ah Zi’s speed.
“He only stopped briefly at a few suspicious locations. Judging from the traces of the evil aura, he has most likely entered into the Roth Empire’s territory. He could also have gone to the remote north, which is off the beaten track,” Merante said while the griffin hovered over the edge of the Twilight Forest.
“Let’s go check out the border.” Mag nodded. He rode the griffin into the Roth Empire’s borders, and began patrolling along it.
The evil aura became much weaker after it entered the Roth Empire. It was scattered irregularly without any order before disappearing mysteriously and completely.
Merante’s expression was a little complex. He said in a low voice, “He should have found a way to conceal the evil aura. I’m afraid it’s no longer feasible to find him by tracking the evil aura. We can only continue to scan the area. As long as he appears within the septaria oracle’s detection range, we can lock onto him.”
Mag saw the sky slowly turning bright at the horizon. They still couldn’t find Josh after searching for the whole night. This fellow’s anti-detection ability was giving them a headache.
“I should be going back now. I’ll leave this to you guys. Let’s keep in contact at all times. If you find him, don’t react in a rush. Contact me first, and I’ll rush over as soon as possible,” Mag said to the two of them.
“Yes. You must have very important matters to do. Please go ahead.” Noah nodded with an understanding expression.
“It’s nothing important. It’s just that my wife, kids, and a warm bed are waiting for me at home. I can go back to sleep in for a while,” Mag replied calmly.
“I…” Noah opened his mouth, and revealed a bitter smile.?Listen to that. Is he for real?
“I’m going.” Mag patted Ah Zi’s back, and Ah Zi took off and flew towards Chaos City, while Mag closed his eyes for a rest.
“Grandpa, what do we do now?” Noah asked despondently. Only the two of them were left in the quiet mountains now.
“I saw a military camp over there earlier. Go get us a steel eagle, and we will continue the search. Now that we have a direction, and the detection range is greatly expanded, this is a rare opportunity for us.” Merante looked excited. He didn’t look tired even after not sleeping for the night.
“Alright. It’s time for me, the bait, to start working.” Noah turned around, and dashed towards the military camp. He was floating and drifting just like a ghost.
***
It was already 5.30 am when Mag arrived home. He went upstairs to take a bath and meditate for 15 minutes before getting up to prepare breakfast and the breakfast service as usual.
As a man who had stepped into the demigod realm, he wasn’t tired even when he didn’t rest for the whole night.
However, it was indeed a tad disappointing that he still couldn’t find Josh when he had brought a giant live detector along with him.
“You didn’t find him?” Irina came downstairs, and watched Mag, who was cooking the porridge in a daze, as she leaned against the door frame.
“He wasn’t in the Twilight Forest, nor was he at the borders of the Roth Empire. I’m a little curious where this fellow is hiding.” Mag stirred the porridge in the pot slowly.
“Andre has returned to the Roth Empire. It’s not likely that Josh can go over Andre and start a war again. Unless he became the king of the Roth Empire.” Irina smiled. “That is what he has always wanted.”
“After absorbing all the resentment and blood essence, his power is above the 9th-tier, but he hasn’t reached the 10th-tier yet. It’s impossible for him to kill Andre and Sean, and suppress all to become the king of the Roth Empire.” Mag shook his head. “Even I will have a hard time killing Andre when he is in the Rodu palace.”
“But he is Josh, one of Andre’s favorite sons and the second prince who is very likely to become the next king of the Roth Empire. Moreover, he has sold his soul to the devil. The fact that he has gone over Andre to mobilize the army to invade the orcs and elves at the same time has already proven that we can’t use logic to judge his ability.” Irina looked very serious.
Mag turned quiet after hearing that as he considered Irina’s words seriously. The power that the Great Old Ones bestowed on Josh was unknown yet, and his identity was indeed very special.
“However, it isn’t really a bad thing if Andre dies. This sly old fox is bad, and he is even harder to deal with than Josh and Sean. On top of that, he is very ambitious.” Irina smiled. “Furthermore, as long as Josh ascended the throne, he would be in the open, and it would be much easier for us to look for and kill him.”
Mag nodded. “Perhaps I should find some time to go to Rodu. He will only become more and more powerful as this drags out. It will be too late when he is completely taken over by the Great Old One.”
“I will go with you, then. Only the Holy Light can purify the evil aura. I will send him to heaven personally.” Irina’s voice was cold.
“Oh, yes, do you know about the Ghost Clan? The two guys yesterday were from the Ghost Clan,” Mag said.
“The Ghost Clan? I think I have read some records about them in the library many years ago.. Didn’t this demon tribe go extinct a few hundred years ago in the racial war?”
