For the Lord of Flameless, it didn't really care if it could get its hands on this human.
Even if the human used the "Subjugation" skill, it was just the Scholar of Cruelty's will.
Even if the Lord of Flameless faced the Scholar of Cruelty head-on, it wouldn't be at a disadvantage. In fact, the Lord of Flameless could use this opportunity to negotiate with the Scholar of Cruelty and gain some benefits.
As for Bobota's assumption that "only another demon god could defeat a demon god", it wasn't correct.
It was because Bobota didn't know much about high-level combatants.
Demon gods rarely fought each other. Even a powerful demon god like the Lord of Depths would avoid unnecessary conflicts, let alone both the Lord of Brutality and the Scholar of Cruelty.
Therefore, the Lord of Flameless didn't care whether the human would use the "Subjugation" skill or not.
The Lord of Brutality was planning to teleport to Angor's side, but after hearing Bobota's words, the Lord of Brutality slowed down.
It gave Angor enough time to decide.
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations On the other side, Gravy's expression was as still as a bucket of stagnant water. But when he heard Bobota's words, his ears twitched a little.
Use the "Subjugation" skill?
Gravy's eyes suddenly brightened up as if he had thought of something.
If the Scholar of Cruelty arrived, it would mean that he could banish or even kill the avatar of the Lord of Flameless. Even though Grevus hated Bobota, it was still a way to survive. With this method, he might even be able to return Lady Orucia's soul to her rightful place!
With this in mind, Gravy couldn't wait to speak.
But just as Gregory opened his mouth, he looked at the motionless shop owner and suddenly hesitated.
If using the "Subjugation" skill could solve everything, why didn't the shop owner want to do it?
Gravy didn't think as deeply as the Lord of Flameless, so he couldn't figure out what was wrong with the shop owner.
However, Gravy could tell that the shop owner didn't want to use the "Subjugation" skill.
Could it be that the "Subjugation" skill posed a danger to the shop owner?
Gregory thought about how the shop owner had pulled him away from the range of the Fiery Arrow without any regard for his own safety. He thought about how the shop owner had fed him medicine that could slow down the deterioration of his injuries while he was still in a daze. He thought about how the shop owner had smilingly agreed to let him participate in the experience …
Gravy hesitated.
This was probably the first time the "brat" Gregory had considered the feelings of others.
Or perhaps, after experiencing the previous ups and downs, Gregory had also started to grow slowly.
…
Although Gregory did not say anything, his expectant gaze had already explained everything.
However, neither Bobota's call nor Gravu's hopeful look made Angor move. Angor even lowered his head. They couldn't find any clues from Angor's expression.
The Lord of Flameless could see Angor's expression, but to his surprise, the human did not show any expression.
It was unusually calm.
If it was any other time, perhaps this expression would not have any meaning, but at this time, it was somewhat strange for him to be able to maintain such a calm expression.
Regardless of whether it was the human whose body was about to collapse or the young fire demon, they had placed their hopes of "nothingness" on him. Even the Flameless Lord himself was walking towards him.
In such a situation, if it were anyone else, they might hesitate, be terrified, or even go hysterical, or even go crazy!
But Angor remained calm, as if he did not care about his surroundings at all.
The Lord of Flameless narrowed his eyes. It was not 'seemed'. He really did not care about his surroundings.
Because he did not seem to be paying attention to the outside world. Instead, he was closing his eyes and … mumbling something.
The Lord of Flameless raised an eyebrow and heard the subtle ripples in the air.
"Praise … Shava …"
Some vague words fell into the Lord of Flameless' ears, but most of them were words that he did not understand.
Was it the whispers of a demon god? No, it did not seem so. The Lord of Flameless did not sense any energy ripples.
Or was it some kind of strange ritual? The Lord of Flameless knew that certain supernatural beings would perform certain rituals that originated from the end of darkness. These rituals required long and complicated prayers, or perhaps incantations. Then, they would use these rituals to achieve certain goals.
However, after taking a closer look, the Lord of Flameless realized that it was not such a ritual.
There were many rules to follow in a ritual, such as the casting materials, the casting location, the casting action, the casting pattern, the offering, the offering, and the completion of the ritual. Even if it was a simple ritual or a simple prayer, there would still be a corresponding energy cycle involved.
But there was no energy ripple coming from this human being.
He looked like some random worshippers who chanted empty slogans but did not do anything.
But this human was too calm. He did not look like one of those random worshippers.
"Interesting." The Lord of Flameless was even more intrigued by this human's performance. If the human did not choose to use the summoning object, the Lord of Flameless could take him away and study him.
With this in mind, the Lord of Flameless slowly walked toward Angor.
He was already halfway there and was only a few dozen meters away from Angor. But Angor still did not do anything. Bobota, who was watching this from afar, began to feel despair.
Greywood was also disappointed. But he already had a hunch that Angor would not do anything.
No one believed that Angor would use the summoning object at this moment. Even the Lord of Flameless believed that the human had given up on resisting.
However, something happened when the Lord of Flameless was only a short distance away from Angor.
…
The Lord of Flameless was now less than ten meters away from Angor.
But at that moment, Lord Flameless suddenly stopped.
Angor, who had been lying on the ground for a long time, was now struggling to get up from the ground.
In the middle of the distance between the two of them, a strong gust of wind passed through, bringing with it a strong and pungent smell of sulfur, as well as some floating sparks.
This scene was like a frozen image.
The pitch-black and deathly still sky, the ground that was as red as blood, and the bubbling magma in the crevices … were the background of the scene.
The Lord of Flameless and Angor each stood in a different direction, becoming the main characters of the picture.
…
Angor struggled to stand up. His broken limbs were not fully healed even after using the Elixir of Life. Therefore, when he stood up, he looked very strange, like a marionette with a crooked neck.
The Lord of Flameless looked at the human in front of him. He was curious. What was this human trying to do?
Even Bobota and Greywood did not understand why Angor was trying so hard to stand up.
If he wanted to use the summoning object, he did not need to stand up. He only needed to sincerely call out the name of the Scholar of Cruelty. So what was Angor trying to do?
Bobota even had a ridiculous thought in his mind. Is Angor going to fight the Lord of Flameless himself?
Bobota shook his head and tried to get rid of the ridiculous thought. Angor was going to fight the Lord of Flameless? It was like a baby wrestling with an adult. No, it was Tyrannosaurus trying to shake the World Tree!
That was impossible! The difference was too big!
However, as soon as Bobota gave up on the idea, Angor suddenly looked up from the ground.
A fierce aura shot out from Angor's eyes like an arrow.
Was that … fighting spirit?!
Bobota was stunned. What he thought was the most ridiculous thing actually happened? Was Angor really going to challenge the Lord of Flameless?
As a bystander, Bobota thought the whole thing was ridiculous. However, he didn't notice that Lord Flameless, the other main character of the confrontation, was slowly calming down.
Bobota didn't sense it directly, so he didn't know how powerful Angor's aura was. Even Lord Flameless felt a prickling sensation on his skin.
This was something Lord of Flameless never felt when he fought Bobota before.
Lord of Flameless felt that this human was becoming strange. Strange things were unpredictable variables. Lord of Flameless would never underestimate the "unknown". This was one of the reasons why he was able to become a Grand Demon God.
Lord of Flameless flicked his finger, and a strand of Flameless Fire appeared on his fingertip.
The Flameless Fire was enough to completely surround the human. Once the human was invaded by the Flameless Fire, the Flameless Fire could kill him or kill him with a single thought.
This was one of the methods Lord of Flameless used to restrict his followers in other worlds.
In other words, Flameless Fire was both a bone-corroding curse and the mark of Lord of Flameless' true name.
The flame was aimed at the human.
The temperature in the air suddenly increased.
A strong sense of danger descended from the sky. Both Angor and Bobota sensed the danger as well.
"Angor, if you really want to fight him, don't hesitate! Use Subjugation now! That's our only chance! "Bobota shouted in an anxious voice.
Gregory finally spoke up. "Mister, you … need to think this through."
Angor still did not answer. Suddenly, a bright green rune appeared on his back and grew in the wind.
The moment Lord Flameless saw the green rune, the strange feeling in his heart rose to the peak. He didn't hesitate to release his Flameless Fire!
But in that instant, Lord Flameless suddenly paused.
This was because a pair of eyes filled with coldness had suddenly pierced through the boundaries of time and space from a distant place and looked straight at them!
