Chapter 231: 230 “Violent Dragon Chapter 231: 230 “Violent Dragon Shane was naturally unaware of the situation over at Ai Yi’s.
Shane only knew that, after the little girl’s merciless punch, he finally felt less hazy.
However, Shane always felt that he would probably never forget that kiss from Nien in his lifetime.
The taste of it was really hard to describe to anyone else.
Of course, Shane was not about to boast about it everywhere, as Ai Yi had suggested.
Otherwise, his abdomen would definitely suffer a few more punches.
So, Shane gathered his thoughts and walked into the dining hall.
To his surprise, the dining room was still empty today, not only was Migis missing, but Vivian and the others were also not there.
Shane sensed for a moment and realized that there was no trace of Vivian and the others’ magic power in the mansion.
“Did they go out early in the morning?”
Shane felt puzzled and immediately asked the butler for the reason.
This is what the butler said,
“The Family Head is still at the Guild, and did not return yesterday. Miss Vivian and the others also did not come back overnight, it seems they are on a very important assignment.”
The butler’s words left Shane somewhat concerned.
“Didn’t return all night…”
At least, since arriving in the Royal Capital, Vivian and the others had not stayed out overnight, always taking on assignments that they could complete within a day. An overnight absence was a first for them.
Naturally, Shane did not find it strange.
For Adventurers to complete assignments, it was common to spend the night outside. Sometimes a single night, a month, or even a whole year of absence could be expected.
Therefore, Shane was just curious about what kind of assignment Vivian and the others were on, then stopped prying, finished the breakfast the servants had prepared for him, and left the Lazahad family, heading towards the Royal Palace.
However, this time, Shane did not go directly to the library, but to Luoqi’s chambers.
“You actually came? I thought you wouldn’t come today!”
Luoqi seemed very surprised, but even more so, she seemed pleased.
Her demeanor was like seeing a prodigal son return, filled with relief.
“I’m in a good mood today, so don’t make me hit you.”
Shane warned her before getting to the main point.
Knowing the purpose of Shane’s visit, Luoqi was even more surprised.
“You want to go with me to meet Lord Jiasinta?”
Luoqi’s face was full of surprise.
Shane had anticipated this reaction from Luoqi.
But he did indeed want to meet with Jiasinta.
“After the incident with that monster yesterday, I thought about it carefully and I still feel a bit concerned,” Shane said. “So, I decided to go with you to have a look.”
Luoqi nodded her head, not really suspicious.
Because, like Shane, she had been concerned about the monster all along.
However, Luoqi’s and Shane’s starting points were different.
Luoqi was worried that such a monster might bring some terrible impact and also feared that someone might be scheming behind the scenes, attempting to destroy the friendship between the Demon Clan and the Human Race.
Shane, on the other hand, because of Nien’s words yesterday, could no longer ignore the matter.
(According to Nien, the existence of that monster was involved with the birth of a new Demon King.)
Therefore, Shane could not help but be concerned about this matter.
Thereupon, the two had a brief conversation, and soon left the chamber.
Before long, the gates of the Royal Palace burst open as a magnificent carriage sped out, heading in a certain direction.
Royal Capital, Demon Race Embassy.
This luxurious building, located in the Northeast Administrative District of the Royal Capital, resembled a private mansion but in fact served as an embassy, specifically designed as a resting place for important figures from the Demon Clan. On a regular basis, it housed Demon Clan liaisons and envoys who assisted with various important matters between the Human Realm and the Demon Realm, making it one of the more critical locations within the Royal Capital.
Ever since their arrival at the Royal Capital, Lord Jiasinta and his party had been staying here.
Thus, as the luxurious carriage raced down the wide avenue, it finally came to a halt at the entrance of the embassy, allowing Shane and Luoqi to emerge.
Shane stood before the embassy, casting his eyes over it.
With the Skill “Magic Perception,” Shane could sense several potent magic powers.
In particular, one magic power stood out, its magnitude far surpassing all others.
Shane was certain that within this Royal Capital, aside from himself, Luoqi, and Ai Yi, the strongest magic power belonged here.
“As expected of a high-ranking officer of the Demon Clan.”
Shane said this with a mixture of admiration and assessment.
Beside him, Luoqi affirmed Shane’s statement.
“Lord Jiasinta is the second-highest-ranking among the four chief officers under the command of the Dragon Demon. His strength is formidable, and it’s said he took part in the war a thousand years ago, where he was incredibly active on the battlefield. He even fought against the Hero on several occasions, a Demon Clan powerhouse that even our teacher Aridia would not take lightly.”
Luoqi informed Shane of this.
“It’s said that long, long ago, Lord Jiasinta had already surpassed Level ninety and possessed a tremendously powerful Unique Skill. He’s slaughtered countless powerhouses of the Divine Race and Human Race and has been known to the world as the Violent Dragon. If you underestimate him just because he may seem frivolous, even you would suffer a great loss,” Luoqi added.
Upon hearing this, Shane’s eyebrows shot up.
This title seemed vaguely familiar to him.
That’s right, Vivian had mentioned it before when they were in Lamijion.
Because Killian had once been a subject to this very Violent Dragon.
“So, Killian was a subordinate to Jiasinta?”
Shane suddenly realized.
No wonder the person who had come was Jiasinta and not some other Demon Clan officer; there was this underlying relationship.
“You’re just realizing this now?” Luoqi glanced at Shane and said, “Lord Jiasinta’s visit to the Royal Capital is mainly to see for himself who defeated Killian.”
“What, does he intend to seek revenge for Killian?” Shane candidly replied.
“You’re overthinking it,” Luoqi responded irritably. “Although it seems Lord Jiasinta had high hopes for Killian in the past, Killian later joined the Old Demon Clan Faction, effectively betraying Lord Jiasinta’s expectations. Lord Jiasinta even publicly declared he would capture Killian and execute him. How could he seek vengeance on his behalf?”
In truth, Shane had only made an offhand remark.
From Jiasinta, Shane didn’t sense any malice or hostility; rather, there was goodwill along with some curiosity and interest.
And through Jiasinta’s every action and word, it was apparent that he seemed to have a favorable impression of Shane.
Otherwise, even Shane would feel uneasy at the prospect of having to fight such a master from the Demon Clan.
Others might not know, but Shane, who possessed the Level 10 Identification Skill, was acutely aware of Jiasinta’s level.
This figure, known as the Violent Dragon, had long reached Level 97.
Coupled with his Unique Skill and an array of at least Level 9 Skills, Shane was confident that Jiasinta wouldn’t be far behind Aridia in strength.
If possible, Shane wasn’t very keen on making an enemy of such a being.
But if there was no other way…
“Then perhaps, I’ll have to fight with all my might.”
Shane couldn’t help but touch the Holy Sword at his waist.
Subsequently, Shane and Luoqi together entered the embassy.
