Worldly Overlord

Devon found being dragged into different doors by the two old men very annoying. He tried getting their hands off his body so many times, but it was all in vain. It was like their hands were both glued to his shoulder.

If the dragging wasn't annoying enough, the talking was. The duo continued to ramble about some book of prophecy crap, the sovereign, and the dominator training someone and all sort of things.

Then they moved on to tell him about all the people who were present in the room, from the tall ones to the short ones, the strongest to the weakest, even the pretty ones. They told Devon everything he needed to know, well, mostly the bad things.

"We have been walking for a while now, can someone tell me where exactly we are going to?"

"Child, be calm. One must know that hastiness isn't a good quality anyone should have." the man who referred to himself as the sovereign spoke softly.

"It has been decided, we your master shall teach you the way of the heart." the bald-haired man stated.

"Master?... I never accepted the two of you as my master." Devon said, and stopped walking towards the next room.

The awkwardness in the surrounding was intense, most of the people behind couldn't help but make jest of the old men.

Devon turned to his right, looking at the bald-haired man, then to his left, looking at the other one. Seeing the look on their face, he could tell that those words of his did get to them.

He was pretty sure that this was the first time that the duo was rejected by someone.

"Hahahahahaha! That was a nice joke. You did get us for a while kid." the bald-haired man said, while gently hitting Devon's shoulder making a joke out of his words.

His partner played along, laughing off the matter.

"Kid, we are about to enter the boss's room. Do not talk, unless you're asked to do so."

"The boss is known for hating noise over the years. Well, what more should we expect from someone who stands at the peak of the world."

"Kid, let me tell you a secret. If our boss wanted to conquer the three worlds, he could have done that years ago. But he didn't choose to do so."

"If he stands at the peak of the world and can conquer the three worlds, then why hasn't he called for world domination then." Devon inquired.

"For someone like the boss what does world domination mean to him hahahahaha when you get to that stage you'll understand it." the haired man replied.

"This is a moment you might never experience again in your life, kid. Well, you're the son of prophecy, so there are still chances, but for the rest of you it won't ever happen again."

The haired man spoke with great confidence in his voice, as he stared at the people behind him.

"Do you remember that time the boss punished the Emperor of profane palace by making him sleep outside his place for seven days and night?"

"Hahahahaha! Who could ever forget that day? The emperor concubines all came out begging to the boss." the bald-haired man jested.

"What about when the boss stripped the former Demon King of his post? That day the whole Demon world was in complete chaos."

"Didn't the boss ban the House of omega organization from stepping out of their walls for a thousand years?"

"He did the same thing to the House of omega, but theirs was for ten thousand years, and speaking of them don't they still have two years left for them."

"So all he does is punish people?" Devon mumbled as he shook his head at the duo.

The duo ignored Devon's words as they continued talking about the glorious things their boss had done over the years.

"Did you forget about when he took the everlasting sword away from the Pope, all because that old man didn't stand up to greet the boss during his birthday party?"

"Oh yes, yes, yes, I remember that day. He also told miss Isabella to break up with the crown prince that same day. Hahahahaha!"

"Ever since the boss has stayed in this auction, no being has ever dared disturbed this place, not even members of the big three dare misbehave here."

"Auction?" Devon asked.

"Kid, there are many things to talk about when it comes to the matter regarding the boss, but so you don't think we are bragging should stop at this point."

Devon turned to look at the people behind him, at least if these two were sick in the head, the others shouldn't be. When Devon turned, he was deeply disappointed by what he saw. As they all had a worshiping look on their face.

It was with no doubt that the boss was akin to a God to all the people behind him.

The bald-haired man moved toward the door gently, raising his left hand, he gently knocked on the door twice before returning to his original position.

Twenty minutes passed by with no reply coming from the other side of the door. Devon wasn't rushing to see the so-called boss, his hand was clasped behind his neck, looked very relaxed and unbothered by the situation.

The duo nodded their heads in approval of how calm Devon was.

"Finally, I was beginning to wonder how long yours truly was going to wait for the son of prophecy." a deep and loud voice resounded from every part of the surrounding.

Every word that came out was brimmed full of celestial energy.

Devon's eyes were closed, as he enjoyed the flow of energy in the surroundings. Though he appeared to be calm, he wasn't anywhere close to that. The situation appeared to be one of escaping a tiger's cave to get into a lion's den.

Every mission, either successful or not, taught Devon's lesson and gave him experience regarding some matters. He could recognize a beast from a pet, even if they were the same size.

And from what he had faced, Devon could tell that the energy that was brimming out from that voice was capable of shredding a level 70 powerhouse to pieces.

"Thank you, boss!" Devon's thought was interrupted by loud voices coming from behind him. It was hard to believe that as scary as the voice was, those people enjoyed it.

This could only mean one thing....

"The three of you come in." before Devin could process his thought, that same voice sounded again.

Not even giving him any time, the duo dragged him inside the room every fast.
