Chapter 11: Ominous Proclamation!
"Behold, my friends, the day has come
When we shall become the ruler of this world
"No longer shall the weaklings thrive
No longer shall the innocent survive
We shall unleash the bottled-up fury and wrath
And conquer all in our path
"The skies will turn a fiery red
And oceans will foam with the blood we shed
The very earth will tremble and quake
As we will unleash the power, we generate
"For we are the servants of chaos and pain, the bringer of darkness, the lord of disdain
And all who dare to stand in 'His' way will feel the wrath of our power in the coming days."
As the hooded figure proclaimed these ominous words, his voice reverberated through the vast arena with a menacing echo in the daylight.
Cheer!
In response to the man's proclamation, tens of thousands of people, irrespective of their gender or age, cheered with fanatic gazes. The figure standing on the platform was the center of their attention.
The next moment, before the eyes of the crowd the man disappeared from the platform and appeared on the ground in the midst of the people, making them cheer even louder.
"How would you feel if the lord chose you as his sacrifice?" The hooded man patted the shoulder of the man standing next to him and asked in a voice that looked like it belonged to a child.
Still, no one in the crowd dared to think of the hooded man as a child after they had seen what the man could do over the past several days.
The man's eyes turned moist when he heard the question. He instantly knelt down, looking at the hooded figure with fanatism.
"It will be my fortune, my lord." The man responded with pious tears continuously streaming down his cheeks.
The others in the crowd cheered for the man, but they couldn't hide the envy in their eyes when they looked at the man.
The figure behind the hood smiled, and despite his face being covered, the others could also sense that smile.
The hooded figure then bent down and grabbed the man's head.
The man's tears stopped, and a fanatic smile spread across his face, but the next moment, it stopped as his body crashed to the ground,
As for the head, it was in the hands of the hooded figure with his entire spine ripped out.
The next moment, a brutal, tragic scene played out on the scene as the crowd rushed and started to tear the corpse apart. Whatever the crowd grabbed, they ate and reveled in the evil of cannibalism.
The hooded figure reappeared on the platform with the man's head still in his hands. A grin spread across the figure's face as he crushed the head, turning it into a bloody mess, and the spine disappeared from the scene.

"I will become the Emperor of this world, and no one will be able to stop me!" Ryan proclaimed to his mother, unaware of the scenes playing out in one of his neighboring Kingdoms.
Loraine was taken aback upon hearing the conviction in her son's voice. She immediately rushed to him and shut his mouth.
Only those who stood at the top of the Kingdom knew the terrifying power of the Turing Empire. Loraine immediately looked around, and only after finding that no guard was there did she heave a sigh of relief.

"Are you sure there is no treatment for the virus?" Henry asked Victor with a shocked expression.
"No," Victor responded.
Victor and Ryan had earlier decided to hide the issue of the Fastiareporen virus from Henry and other Vechnos, but Victor himself gave up and informed Henry about it.
"Do we know who infected Ryan with the virus?" Henry asked after slightly calming down. At that moment, his heart was deep in an active volcano, ready to erupt anytime, but he tried to control himself.
"We thought that those bandits had a role to play in that, but when we raided their bases, we found they knew nothing about such a virus.
"It was as if it had appeared out of thin air and infected Ryan," Victor commented since no matter how hard he tried to find out what caused Ryan to be in such a condition, he failed to get an answer.
Henry's face was pale as he grabbed the chair handle to control his anger.
Boom!
The next moment, the chair handle exploded into a wooden dust cloud.

Faraway City, The Turing Empire,
In the inner city, more than half of the area was taken by the royal palace.
At that moment, in the gigantic palace, there was a serious meeting going on between the Emperor and his advisors.
"How far are we from our expected result?" The Emperor looked to be in a bad mood when he asked.
The advisors had ugly expressions spread across their faces as they looked at each other, trying to see who would be the first to answer.
When the Emperor saw the scene playing out, his mood turned worse as he slammed on the table, immediately destroying it.
The other advisors were Great Knights, so they immediately defended themselves from the sharp wooden shards coming at them at unprecedented speed.
The Emperor suddenly frowned and looked to his left. The next moment, the window opened on its own as a man stepped inside the room.
It was a hooded figure, and soon after stepping inside, the man removed it. It was a boy, who looked to be in his teen years.
The boy was strikingly handsome, with silver hair and gray eyes that resembled the features of the royal family of the Turing Empire.
"Uncle," The boy nodded toward the Emperor and then sat down on one of the chairs, looking at the scene in front of him with playful eyes.
Even though the boy didn't show any respect to the Emperor, none dared to make a fuss, not even the Emperor himself.
