Azaroth was soon informed of his orders through the Echo Transmission Skill.

On the eastern side of the camp, Azaroth was replaced by two 4 Star Warriors.

Overall, the eastern side was fine with these changes…

As Azaroth was running towards the southern side of the camp with a small frown. He found this situation quite bizarre to understand.

‘Someone sabotaged the barrier formation? The Abyssal Hound is still not here, so it can’t be from the beasts… But why would someone from our side try to sabotage the barrier formation? Does he have a death wish?’

Just who would benefit from sabotaging the barrier formation? It would undoubtedly be the beasts…

‘It’s impossible for a beast to try and manipulate someone who has studied formations. Normally, their spiritual strength is stronger than average, and they have a good sixth sense.’

Even from Abyssal Hound’s memories, there was no mention of manipulating a beast’s consciousness, so he shouldn’t be involved.

‘Did I miss something?’

This question did appear in Azaroth’s head, but he wasn’t overly worried. He felt confident in still handling this whole situation in his favor.

Moreover, he smirked a little as he headed towards the encampment’s southern side. It was as if he had just received some sort of good news.

After a quarter of an hour, Azaroth reached the Southern Side.

He was slightly surprised to see that the beasts had broken past 4 blockades. In fact, the last two blockades set up to stop these beasts also appeared to be quite shaky…

Azaroth also sensed just a few dozens of warriors alive. The rest had turned into corpses and were crushed underneath the beasts’ feet.

In this situation, he couldn’t repair the formation. First, he had to clean up the area a little.

Azaroth jumped past the blockades and immediately jumped into this ocean of beasts.

“Wind Domain!”

“Thousand Blades of Wind!”

Azaroth had no time to gauge the power or have his fun here with these beasts. He chose the best option available to him and killed any and all beasts in 70 meters radius around him.

Fortunately, the warriors were a little behind him and weren’t caught up in his Wind Domain, or they would have also experienced the same fate as those beasts in Azaroth’s domain.

Even the 4 Star beasts were cut apart into pieces in Azaroth’s domain.

Only the strongest warriors of the Palm Valley School graduates had survived. They had even asked for reinforcements, and honestly, it wasn’t helping them much right now.

They felt that they were going to be killed soon.

However, when they sensed the sudden wind pressure and raised their heads to look at Azaroth, who had singlehandedly killed hundreds of beasts in his range. They finally breathed a sigh of relief…

The Palm Valley School graduates never imagined that they would be saved by Azaroth.

Many had held grudges against him, but it was at this moment where they felt utmost thankful to his presence.

Azaroth wasn’t someone who cared about how these weaklings thought.

As he had dealt with many of the beasts and intimidated the other beasts from charging at the encampment, he had some time to observe the warriors here.

‘Mystic Eyes of Perception!’

Azaroth’s red-colored pupils had changed into purple-colored pupils, and he gazed at each warrior very carefully.

Suddenly, his eyes stopped on a specific individual. He was none other than the guy who claimed to be Rudy’s elder brother and one of the only 4 Star Warrior from Palm Valley School Graduates.

It wasn’t this guy’s power that surprised him. This 4 Star Warrior could only be considered below average amongst the warriors Azaroth had seen.

The thing that surprised Azaroth was the faint demonic aura in this man’s body.

‘Wait… I didn’t sense any sort of demonic aura when he tried to fight against me. He did use Ardor at that time as well.’

Azaroth was quick in his analysis soon came to a conclusion ‘This means this is not his demonic ardor. Someone implanted this demonic ardor in him! Also, the fact that it’s still glowing means that it had been recently activated.’

“Damn. I really stepped into some huge scheme of the demons…” Azaroth spoke with a grin on his face. He was naturally excited.

The enemy was out in the open while he was in the shadows. This was an excellent opportunity to learn more about this enemy and make good use of him.

Azaroth pulled out a red-colored pill and ate it immediately to recover at least half the Ardor he had lost using the Wind Domain and then the Thousand Blades of Wind.

The beasts behind Azaroth had somehow gotten over their fear of Azaroth and finally started charging ahead.

This was because their instincts told them that Azaroth won’t be able to use that same attack again.

Azaroth shouted at the warriors from Palm Valley School, “Take care of these beasts while I go and repair the barrier formation. Just hold them back for 10 minutes or so, and I will be done.”

“… Alright.” Someone amongst this group of warriors shouted out.

Azaroth had naturally not waited for this confirmation and was already moving to the array formation point here.

As he was running towards that array formation point, he noticed several beasts near that position and turned his head, “Hey, you.”

He pointed at a guy who had just beheaded a monkey and turned Giant Rat. This man was none other than the 4 Star Warrior who had a hint of demonic aura within his body.

As that guy heard Azaroth, he turned towards him and asked with some surprise, “Are you talking about me?”

“Yes, come with me. Don’t let the beasts near me for some time. I will need some clear space as well. If I get disturbed by the beasts, the formation will never be repaired.” Azaroth explained his reasoning very quickly since he was in a hurry.

The Palm Valley School’s Graduates were also in a hurry as they wanted to get the formation repaired as soon as possible.

The other 4 Star Warrior from the Palm Valley School immediately spoke out, “Go and assist him. We need to get the formation repaired as soon as possible.”

There was not much choice for that guy as he jumped back and turned to run at the spot where Azaroth was headed.

After like a minute or so, the two had reached that spot.

Since there were still some beasts around them, Azaroth went over to the formation’s center while the man exploded out his Ardor and began fighting against these beasts with his full strength.

Currently, he couldn’t afford to focus on a single beast as he had to make sure that they remained away from Azaroth.

While Azaroth was repairing the formation, he kept on observing this man and how he fought.

It was relatively primitive, there was little to no skill in his actions, and he failed to understand why a demon would choose such a warrior for some sort of task.

‘Wait… Don’t tell me…’

As Azaroth thought of a possibility, he immediately stopped repairing the formation array.

Azaroth pulled out a sword from his Spatial Ring and threw it at the Brown Bear, fighting this man. The sword was thrown at such speed, enhanced with the Wind Ardor, that it pierced its head, killing it in one blow.

Azaroth pulled out two more swords and threw them as if he was throwing knives and killed a Sky Blue Jackal and a giant flame lizard. Once again, these blades pierced their heads in one go.

The area nearest to this man could be considered cleared right now. The other beasts were nearly 10 or so meters away from him.

Before this guy could even turn, Azaroth’s hand was already on top of his head.

“Now… Time to get your secrets.”

Azaroth’s eyes began to glow with purple color as his hold over this man’s head tightened.

Suddenly, Azaroth felt something pulling his spirit.

He didn’t even need to think for a long time before knowing the answer to this question.

“So, I was right. You indeed implanted a part of your soul inside this human and took control over his body to break this barrier formation, Demon King Zalvach.” Azaroth knew the name of this Demon King because of Abyssal Hound’s memories.

“Who are you?!”

“You don’t need to know,” Azaroth spoke as he caught hold of that spirit with his own spiritual energy.

“You will regret it! I have locked onto your aura, and if you kill me, my real body will know about you and kill you as soon as it can. You won’t be able to run away!” The Demon King’s Spirit shouted at Azaroth quickly.

“Shut your mouth. Even a weak soul like you dares to be so arrogant in front of me?! I have thousands of skills to make you disappear, leaving no evidence!” Azaroth snorted in response and replied.

“I can’t be bothered to chat with you.” Azaroth’s purple eyes glowed for a few seconds as he whispered, “Soul Reading Technique.”

A massive amount of information flew in Azaroth’s head as he filtered out the information he didn’t require.

Meanwhile, he also crushed the guy’s head as he had no more use of this man.

While Azaroth was learning new information from the memory of that Demon King’s Spirit, he began walking towards the barrier formation center.

He repaired the barrier formation in about a minute or so.

Azaroth shouted at the other warriors, “The formation has been repaired. Get back in the formation!”

Meanwhile, an echo transmission followed soon enough, informing the warriors on the southern side of the encampment to get inside the barrier formation.

After nearly 10 or so seconds, the barrier on the southern side was also activated.

Azaroth and the other warriors of Palm Valley School breathed a sigh of relief.

They looked shocked and somewhat sad as they saw that one of the 4 Star Warrior from their school had died, but they had no time to mourn.

They immediately requested more reinforcements as after some rest, they would have to fight against the beasts again.

Meanwhile, Azaroth utilized his free time to carefully analyze the Demon King Zalvach’s Soul’s memories.
