Chapter 563: Demon Queen Tharis

Jin Rou passed through different dimensions by a single step and after a minute or so, he arrived at his destination. It was a mountain peak far away from Jin Rou's origin. If one would look it normally, the peak was nothing but a sort of ordinary. However, if you could feel the inner energy of the place, you could see how great this mountain peak was.

Anyway, that was not the point why Jin Rou was here.

"Show yourself. I know you have been watching for so long now." Jin Rou spoke as if he was talking to the wind, "Let's save the trouble of messing around. I know where to find you, exactly."

It was silence for a moment before the space cracked and revealed a beautiful entity that could shy all of the living beings. Even though she was part of the demon race, it couldn't hide her beauty that toppled the whole realm.

Jin Rou observed her from head to toe, but there was no trace of expression in his eyes. Only cold eyes as if he was looking at an enemy.

"Fret not, I am not your enemy." The beautify voice of the demon suddenly reverberated in the entire mountain peak, "I know that I cannot be a match against you, so I won't do anything funny."

If a demon could hear this, he would probably be stumped. This existence was one of the most important figures of Great Hell. One step was equal to a thousand steps to her. Not just that, she was also a powerful being that only a few could contend against.

"If you aren't my enemy, why have you been watching me?" Jin Rou asked, "You even tried to pierce through my fog to discover mysteries, and you're telling me you aren't an enemy?"

The other party was surprised and laughed. She showed great elegance even when laughing and said, "First, let me introduce myself. I am called Demon Queen Tharis Insignia. I am one of the Insignia Royal Family of Great Hell."

Jin Rou showed a bit of surprise. He never heard about a royal family here in Great Hell. Nevertheless, he knew that the other party wasn't bluffing or anything. After all, he could detect whether a person was lying or not.

"For sure, you may have not been informed that there is a Royal Family here." Demon Queen Tharis could understand his expression and said, "It's okay. The Great Demons Camp has been suppressing us for so long now, so it's natural not to know us."

She paused for a moment and continued, "Generally, Insignia should be the ones leading and dictating the Great Hell. We have been doing it generations after generations and this realm had done well during our dictatorship. However, it ended when the Great Demons, under the leadership of Baal, overthrew our reign."

"A coup d'etat?" Jin Rou asked.

"Yes." Demon Queen Tharis sighed, "Baal has been eyeing for the throne for so long now. It's just that he still had not enough resources in the past. But it was different when he jad overthrown our Royal Family."

"If you use a royal decree and suppressed Baal from the start, this wouldn't have happened." Jin Rou stated.

Indeed, if the royal family kept Great Demon Baal in check a long time ago, things must not have gone awry like this. After all, the great demon had yet to fully have the resources he needed for the coup. It would be easy as eating to suppress him even if he was the strongest being here.

"If we did that, Baal will be weakened and the moral of the great demons will decrease drastically. They treat Baal as their one true leader and he is irreplaceable. If we did that to him, we might have faced a full retaliation of the great demons. We are no match against them, even I am not capable of contending against all of them." Demon Queen Tharis smiled wryly. She was remembering some bitter pasts and said.

"But still, it happened." Jin Rou said, "One way or another, they will retaliate. It was only a matter of time. Your poor decision made it into this way."

Jin Rou didn't sugarcoat any words and said, "Your royal family must be a bunch of incompetent beings that even a great demon could overthrow you."

The Royal Family should have been the one dictating the great demons as they were branded as tools for the war. However, it wasn't what's happening right now. Instead, the royal family was in the leash.

The queen didn't comment on this. But her silence was already understood.

Jin Rou knew that scolding the demon queen wouldn't do anything good and it'd just bea waste of time. He then spoke again, "I now understand why you are. You want my help regarding stopping, suppressing, or killing Baal right?"

The demon queen hesitated for a moment before saying, "No need to kill him. We still need him here. He is irreplaceable, even for us. You just need to seal his power for the meantime so that we can tame him."

Jin Rou sneered inside and thought that taming that great demon would be another big risk and it was idiotic. But, he didn't care about their personal matters and said, "Okay, so what will I get in return? Surely, you don't think I will do a favor for you for free?"

"Yes, I am fully aware." Demon Queen Tharis said. She didn't know why but she could feel a great pressure every time she look at Jin Rou, "I have a vital information that might help you. It is regarding a person from an unknown Treasure Clan."

Jin Rou's eyes suddenly had a flash of fierceness and the temperature got cold, "You have researched very well."

Jin Rou didn't even say to anyone about a person of a Treasure Clan to anyone here. Yet, this queen could deduce it like this. Her wits must be very terrifying. Anyway, since it's an information that might be regarding Schwal Coffin, he'd hear it out.
