Leaving the Sinyalian Kingdom wasn't as easy as it sounded. They couldn't cross the borders between the two kingdoms just because they wanted to.

Many sensors on both sides kept an eye on each other's movements. It would be impossible to sneak right under their noses.

​​

Even Azaroth wasn't confident of achieving this. He would have to distract the sensor by some other method.

Thus, he was forced to think of some other method. Moreover, with this new method, he could hit two birds with a single stone.

Azaroth left Kloras Town together with his group of retainers. They were moving towards Yhord City.

The Wrihull City, under the Rhodes Family, was situated near the borders of the Glerian Kingdom and the Sinyalian Kingdom.

Azaroth didn't want to move towards the Wrihull City since he knew that if his information was revealed, he would have a low chance of escaping from Jonas's hands.

Thus, he chose Yhord City that was situated near the Glerian-Sinyalian Borders. This city was under territory Earl Burke's territory.

Azaroth had heard that there hadn't been much fighting in these borders and the defenses were somewhat lax here. He chose these borders because they were quite far away from Kloras Town.

He had his plans for choosing a farther location. They were moving towards Yhord City and it would take them nearly one week to reach their destination.

Azaroth was using his Ardor to make them fly with him, which was why they were so fast. If they traveled on horses or carriages, they would have probably required 3 weeks or so to reach their destination.

~~

Nearly at the same moment, Felix Miller had finally reached the Rhodes Mansion. He soon met up with Jonas and asked him, "Take me to the Demonic Totem immediately. The king informed me that it's of utmost importance."

Naturally, the command of the king couldn't be ignored. Thus, Jonas took Felix Miller to the cave where Azaroth's demonic totem was left behind.

Soon, Felix Miller stood in front of the demonic totem.

It had been nearly 2 weeks since Jonas came to see this totem. And currently, he felt as if something had changed about it but he couldn't place his finger on it.

Just what had changed?

Felix Miller ignored Jonas and began to analyze the totem. He opened his black bag and pulled out multiple things from it.

There were glass bottles, brushes, a trowel, a compass, and many other tools. Jonas noticed that within those glass bottles were different colored liquids.

Without explaining anything, Felix Miller used a pipette and dropped a few drops of that red-colored liquid on the totem.

Those drops fell on the totem's body. The color turned faint before it eventually vanished.

Felix Miller muttered, "More than 10 years old."

He then dripped his pipette in the orange-colored liquid and then dropped it on the totem. The same thing occurred again.

"More than 100 years old."

Soon, he tried out the yellow drops and he witnessed the same scene. This time, Felix Miller spoke a bit excitedly, "It's more than 1000 years old!"

He tried out his green-colored liquid. The color disappeared quickly.

"More than ten thousand years old demonic totem?!" Felix Miller was utterly shocked at this point.

In fact, not just him. But even Jonas was flabbergasted.

He had never imagined that this totem had been set up more than ten thousand years ago. It was even older than the entire Sinyalian Kingdom.

Felix Miller's hands shook in excitement as he tried out the blue-colored solution as well. This time, the color didn't fade away so quickly.

According to the time it took for the color to fade away, Felix Miller estimated this Demonic Totem to be 80,000-90,000 years old.

He then pulled out a notebook from his bag and then began to compare the letters on the Demonic Totem with the letters in his notebook.

"…I…am…Evil …Fiend… Flame…Emperor…"

Felix Miller frowned as he translated those words and thought 'Strange. How can this totem belong to the Evil Fiend Flame Emperor.'

As he heard those translated words, Jonas's expression turned quite grave.

He was not familiar with the name of this demon but he knew that if it belonged to a Demon Emperor then the situation was truly quite grave.

Felix Miller continued to analyze the demonic totem though. He was in awe that he could examine such an antique totem for as long as he could under the pretext that he was looking for more clues.

Jonas pulled out his Voice Transmission Array Stone and tried to connect to Shun.

After a couple of minutes, Shun's voice was heard from the other end of the Voice Transmission Array Stone.

"What did Felix Miller say, Lord Rhodes?" This was Shun's first question. Jonas didn't ask him how he knew that Felix Miller had told him something.

"…The Demonic Totem belongs to a Demonic Emperor named Evil Fiend Flame Emperor."

Once Shun heard that name, he felt something click in the back of his mind. He immediately replied, "I remembered reading about him in your library, Lord Rhodes. But how can that totem belong to the Evil Fiend Flame Emperor? He was a Demon Emperor from nearly 2 million years ago. According to what I read, this demon emperor's totem had already been found in the Pinhian Republic nearly 120 years ago. That totem's appearance doesn't match this totem at all."

Jonas regained his calm and understood what he meant.

"There is a chance that the name or the rank were altered. The question is, whether it was altered before we saw this totem or after we saw it." Jonas heard a sigh from Shun's side.

Shun despised it when things were attributed to chance. But this was the difficulty of capturing that demon. He even had to pray for luck to be in his favor.

"I remember those symbols clearly. Please let me describe those symbols to Felix Miller. Hopefully, it will be of use." Shun was extremely confident in his memory.

Jonas called out for Felix Miller, "Come here. It's Inquisitor Fox who wants to talk to you."

Felix Miller was slightly startled before coming over to Jonas's side and then holding that Voice Transmission Array Stone.

He began to talk to Shun.

"Let's not waste any time, Felix Miller. I will describe to you the symbols I saw. Just translate them back to me." Shun spoke quickly.

Felix Miller was more than happy to play along.

After nearly an hour of effort, Felix Miller had managed to completely translate the symbols described by Shun.

"…I…am…Tyrannical …Asura… Devil… God…"

Felix Miller, Jonas Rhodes, and Shun's blood ran cold as they realized that this was not the totem of a mere Demon Emperor.

It was the totem of someone even greater than a Demon Emperor. A Demon God!

Shun was more surprised that he hadn't found information regarding this Demon God in the history books. His appearance or anything else related to him.

This was because Azaroth was from the 2 Million Years Ago Era. The same was the case for Evil Fiend Flame Emperor. However, the reason its record was mentioned in Rhodes Family's library was that his totem had been found nearly 120 years ago in the Pinhian Republic. The Pinhian Republic had to search the entire world to find some information about this Evil Fiend Flame Emperor.

Azaroth's information was even more secretive. It was because the Celestials and the Demons had joined hands to kill him. This was a forbidden matter in both races. As a result, Azaroth's presence was kept so secret that the human race had no idea if he even existed.
