"Everyone, kill all the demons."
Ajax gave his orders to his summons while he and his dwarf followers moved towards the nearest town.
"Yes, master."
"Yes, summoning master."
All the contracted spirit beasts and the elemental spirits nodded their heads and moved in different directions to start the massacre.
...
In the Zrochester province.
"Damn it...that old bastard Lin took her away right in front of my eyes."
King Stephen was angry when the royal shadows came with empty hands and as he cursed the old man Lin.
"Search the entire province. I don't care what you will do or how many you kill, bring her back and then send her to the Ylercester province. I am leaving that province now."
Since King Stephen knew that it would take much longer than he expected to bring Princess Daphne back, he decided to just leave as he had many things to do in the Ylercester province.
So, he gave that mission to the head royal shadow and before leaving the Zrochester province, he made enough preparations like giving the full authority to the old minister and others who he trusted.
Without wasting any more time, King Stephen activated the teleportation circle to the Ylercester province and left the Zrochester province.
...
At the same time, the entire Zrochester province was talking about the competition of the young geniuses that was going to be held in the Ylercester province.
Many families were preparing their genius youngsters.
Even if they can't win, they thought their young ones would gain the experience as it was always an important factor to progress in the cultivation.
All their sects and families were also doing the same.
Even though some of them have lost their top genius in the champions contest and in other unfortunate situations, they still have to send someone as it would be a good opportunity to prove themselves.
...
In the depths of the Cursed Wilderness.
"Listen, kids, you can finally meet Ajax."
"There will be a contest soon in the Ylercester province where all geniuses from the entire world will come. Your friend, Ajax will also join the contest. I want you to defeat him. Can you do it?"
Elder Boron transmitted his voice to three young men, Damon, Jason and Hector while asking them to defeat Ajax.
'What?'
Jason and Hector were surprised as they stopped cultivating; however, Damon, who was cultivating inside an earth prison didn't react much as he casually nodded his head.
Unlike Jason and Hector, Damon had to save his love from the other world and for that, he needed to increase his cultivator's law to level 5.
Currently, he is at the peak level 3 of his cultivator's law and he only has one more month to reach level 5 cultivator's law. So, he was completely focused on cultivating.
"Elder Boron, who could Ajax win against us? You are training us for the entire time whereas Ajax was on his own. Isn't it unfair for him?"
"Yes, Elder Boron. Are you sure Brother Ajax will be joining the fight?"
Hector and Jason, came out of the wooden house and replied to Elder Boron.
Even though they have seen Ajax win the champion's contest, they felt that they were improving much faster and didn't think Ajax made much progress in the cultivator's law as it was very hard for anyone in the Zrochester province to cultivate the cultivator's law.
"Haha"
Hearing their words, Elder Boron could not help but reveal a loud laugh as he said, "So, why don't we make a deal? If you defeat him, I will let you go anywhere you want for one month; however, if you lose, I will make you train double than what you were currently doing. What will you say?"
"Huh?"
Hearing that bet from Elder Boron, both Jason and Hector shuddered and without any hesitation, they replied, "Not interested, Elder Boron."
"Haha...you are being too careful."
Elder Boron laughed and said, "There is only one month's time, go and increase your cultivator's law as high as possible because there were some monstrous geniuses who had level 7 to level 10 cultivator's law. In front of them, you can't stand a chance."
"We will definitely make you proud with our fights, Elder Boron."
After finding out more about the contest, Jason and Hector went back to cultivate.
For the entire time, they didn't ask about Damon as they already knew what Damon was going through and if there were anything important, Elder Boron would definitely let them know.
'I hope this will put enough pressure on them. As long as they have level 5 or level 6 cultivator's law, it will definitely make them enter the top 100 rankings'.
Elder Boron silently muttered to himself and looked at the distant underground prison in which Damon was cultivating and thought, 'He will definitely not participate in the contest; instead, he will urge me to open the portal to that world to save his lover.'
'Sigh...these young men. Why are these love stories always complex and complicated? If he went back to that world before becoming the King realm cultivator, he would definitely die a gruesome death. But if I involve too much with the other worlds, it would make things complicated for me.'
Elder Boron could not shake his head thinking about the future.
'At least that kid Ajax was good. Unlike his father, he didn't make his already complicated life even more complicated with Love.'
Soon, Elder Boron entered into a deep meditation in the same place and who knows what he was thinking in his old head.
…..
In the smaller grey dwarf world.
'Ding,
Congratulations to the host for successfully conquering the smaller grey dwarf world.
'Ding,
Do you want to become the protector of the world or do you want to merge this world with the host's normal grade grey dwarf world?
After a couple of hours, Ajax was in his third town visitation as he got the system notifications in his head.
