Worldly Overlord

Most of the powerhouse ate food because they liked it, not because they needed it. They already possessed celestial energy in them, so eating wasn't necessary for most of them.

The food had already been delivered to Devon and Teresa's table. While Teresa had a single plate in front of her, Devon's plate was up to seven.

In the auction, there were words about the god of death incarnation being able to eat a meal meant for twelve men. Some of them didn't believe it, as the food in the auction was fully packed with celestial nutrients.

So, how could someone possibly eat that much? Only fiends in the ancient days were capable of such, and they had all been annihilated.

The possibility of him being a fiend was completely ruled out, as it just wasn't possible. And if he was really a fiend, their boss would have killed him immediately due to the nature of fiends.

But, seeing how Devon was eating the food in his front, they were all beginning to doubt their theory. How could someone be able to digest so many celestial nutrients?

Devon continued eating his food, ignoring the eyes that were staring at him. He wasn't in any rush as he ate the food slowly.

Time went by and when Devon was done with his fifth plate, Teresa was almost halfway done with hers. Teresa wasn't surprised by any of this, she was already used to the scene.

Though, the first time she saw him eating, she was shocked. As his stomach seemed to be a bottomless pit for celestial nutrients.

"Ahhhhhhhh!...... All you know how to do is bully." Tears began to drip out of Teresa's eyes as she spoke to Devon.

At first, Devon was confused by how she raised her voice at him all of a sudden, as he didn't even say a word to her. It didn't take long, and he figured out exactly what she was up to.

Seeing how she waited till he was done with his meal, he chuckled.

"Can you please leave me alone" Teresa stood up from the seat and her legs began shaking.

Devon had to give this lady acting skill a salute, when it came to acting, she was unrivaled. What made Devon more convinced was how she made all the men in the cafeteria shift their attention to her.

Women were indeed the most frightening creature in history.

Teresa staggered took two steps backward. "Please spare my sister, I've already given you my body. What else do you want from me?"

Two men in the cafeteria stood from their seats and went to stay beside Teresa. If being glared at could kill someone, then Devon would have died several times.

"You beast!!!!!!!" Teresa went behind the men as she said those words to Devon.

Devon couldn't help but laugh at how gullible these men were. He turned to see if the others were the same, and their reaction was within his expectation. Some of them were already releasing killing intent from their body.

To Devon, the killing intent was just like a child throwing tantrum to his elder.

While most of the men wanted to rip him apart, the ladies were looking at Teresa with pity. It was sad for someone as beautiful as Teresa to be treated this way.

Though most of them didn't like how Teresa acted willfully in the auction, they still felt she wasn't supposed to be abused.

And if some of them were still doubting Devon being the god of death incarnation, what Teresa revealed to them completely cleared the doubt they were having.

"On behalf of our masters, I will execute this evil being." One of the men who stood with Teresa declared.

The other man beside him shook his head in disagreement with his words. "Michael, we can't kill him because of the masters, but we can cripple him instead." his suggestion brought several nods among the men and women.

What made the staff believe Teresa was because most of them believed she was extremely weak. Teresa rarely leaves the auction for mission or anything, she was usually inside her room or spending time with the three masters.

Sometimes even the dominator and sovereign usually went on missions, while Teresa doesn't. So over time, the staff began to believe she was weak and probably had some deep connection with the boss that why she doesn't go anywhere.

"let's also cut off some of his body parts while we are at it." One of the men in the cafeteria suggested.

However, his suggestion brought a look of disgust and insult from the women to him. The man was known in the auction for liking humans body parts. Some of his colleagues said it was due to the technique he practiced.

But still, it was disgusting......

Devon found the scene amusing, after his training he hadn't really gotten the chance to fight someone to his content except with Teresa.

But battling with that lady was somehow similar to him facing the dominator. Teresa was extremely powerful to the extent that he could only withstand four punches from her, anything higher than that was a beat down.

It was then he admitted that she had the right to do as she pleases in the auction.

Devon deeply hoped this man wouldn't disappoint him. Well, considering how much resources and techniques was invested in every one of them they should be on the same level as some of the prodigy in those top families and organization.

Michael brought out a silver sword from his storage ring and without any further ado he slashed it down towards the table.

"Is it going to be only you?" Devon said, looking very disappointed.

Michael laughed at Devon's word, "I'm more than enough to deal with someone like you." Though those were the words that came out of his mouth, Michael was frightened.

His attack on the table was him trying to scare Devon but instead of scaring Devon, he was the one who was scared seeing how his opponent treated his attack as nothing. But as someone who had been through tempering, he regained his composure and decided to have fate in his strength.

Devon stood up from the seat quietly, he stared at Teresa, who was already seating with the ladies in one area of the cafeteria. He nodded his head at her.

Teresa smiled at him in return.

Meanwhile, Michael began pouring celestial energy into the silver sword. At first, he wanted to use half of his strength but with the vibe, he was getting from Devon, he decided to go all out.

Michael attacked Devon at a fast speed, he didn't even get close to Devon before slashing his sword at him. The sword sent out multiple waves of celestial energy.

Still, the attack wasn't done, as the silver sword increased its length. The edges of the sword seemed to have become sharper.

Against the incoming attack, all Devon did was just swerve his body left and right, he didn't even move away from his position. Devon knew this attack was just to create an opening and the real one was yet to come.

*CLANG*

While Michael assumed he had seen an opening, he appeared behind Devon and slashed his sword at Devon's back. As he slashed his sword, he felt like it had stumbled upon a barrier.

Micheal flew ten steps backward, "Did my attack just get deflected." He mumbled in a voice only he could hear.

"A rank 3 artifact.... Not bad." Devon staged.. This was the first time he saw someone using an artifact.
