Chapter 154: Mahades, the City that Fell from Heaven and Remained Undiscovered for Millennium (Part 2)

Editor: Entelechy
Relying on the concealment methods of shadow magic, Clyde snuck into the underground city to investigate. Although the humanoid monsters that controlled this place had fierce forms, they didn’t have any magic attributes and were unable to discern even the most basic of magic. Basically, they couldn’t see Clyde.
Most low-level humanoid monsters relied on smell to find people, so they could easily see through the stealth skills of assassins and thieves. However, their sense of smell was of little to no use against non-humans. As an existence of the dark camp, Clyde could easily avoid detection by these insectmen monsters. Although Valkyrie Cynthia was from God Race, because she had signed a special contract with him, she was able to share his shadow concealment magic.
Now though, her complexion was bright red. Clyde explored Mahades while carrying Cynthia in a princess-carry. They walked around without concern. When the insectmen monsters passed \ them by, there was not even the slightest suspicion. Just like a young master traveling around with his female companion, Clyde wasn’t nervous at all. With Cynthia’s help, it was very unlikely for Clyde to get lost in Mahades. Cynthia understood those strange inscriptions written in the script of the sky continent Sigrani.
The prosperity of Sigrani was above that of Ximengsi Continent. In those years, the Human Races of Sigrani Continent and Ximengsi Continent had established some contact. Merely, because the cost of a round trip being too high and ultra-distant teleportation magic arrays being even more expensive, the trade route had never truly expanded. It had been limited to high-grade luxury goods, making the people of Ximengsi Continent quickly forget the Sigranians after they were destroyed.
The Moon God Clan that had protected the Sigranians had been destroyed along with the sky continent Sigrani. At that time, Mahades had been the site of the Sigranians last stand, but had finally been unable to escape the fate of being destroyed. In the last battle, the Moon God Clan was wiped out to the last man, and after gambling with their full might, they barely sealed the invading Demon King.
Cynthia knew the written language of Moon God Clan, so she translated those murals with a red face. Now, she wore just a white bathrobe and was completely bare inside. Because she had been suddenly summoned, she hadn’t had the time to grab her undergarments and nearly appeared completely bare. Clyde pretended to know nothing and carried her like nothing was wrong. Since Cynthia hadn’t even fastened the belt of her bathrobe, her bosom and fair skin were revealed. All kinds of alluring scenes were plainly visible to Clyde. However, Clyde was not satisfied with these cheap advantages. He would often use his hands to explore her body, making her stutter and moan quite a few times.
“Lord Clyde, not like this! It’s inconvenient here; I beg you to wait until we reach a room.”
“Relax, Cynthia, no one can see us here, so it’s not really in public. You don’t need to restrain your feelings; you can cry in pleasure. There’s no problem. Those insectmen monsters can’t see us.”
Cynthia used a gentle, soft tone to beg for mercy. Her usual Valkyrie pride disappeared. Now, she was just a powerless white lamb caught by a devil. In front of Clyde, even a valkyrie was treated like a normal beauty. With his skill, he would make Cynthia reach the brink of the pinnacle and stop. Then when she relaxed, he would continue. After a few repetitions, Cynthia was unable to withstand it. Her body became unusually sensitive. If their current situation had been different by them being in a room, she would have already begged Clyde to execute her on the spot. This teasing was too uncomfortable.
With Cynthia’s translation, Clyde finally understood the meaning of murals. Over a thousand years ago, Sigrani had suffered the invasion of variant monsters, resulting in Moon God Clan along with the Sigranians being wiped out. These variant monsters were different from the monsters of Ximengsi Continent. Allegedly, those insect type monsters had emerged from a huge cocoon that had fallen from heaven. Those insect type monsters had a very high magic resistance, unlike the monsters of Ximengsi Continent that feared light, holy, and purification magic. Those insect type monsters hadn’t feared any magic.
The Sigranians had been a peak magic civilization. The Moon God Clan had also relied on magic. Those insectoid monsters had directly countered and restrained them. As a result, they had quickly suffered a complete defeat. At the final moment, the Moon God Clan had bet their entire combat power to seal the leader of those insectoid monsters in the depths of Mahades, containing their offense. Afterward, the insectoid monsters that had lost their leader had dissolved into infighting to become the new leader after destroying the sky continent Sigrani. All this time, they had fought against each other. For over a thousand years, not a single one had descended to Ximengsi Continent.
According to the speculations of Moon God Clan, these insectoid monsters originated from outer space. They might have just been a retainer clan of the Alien Monster Clan. During the battle between the Alien Monster Clan and Star God Clan in the Outer World, after both sides had suffered heavy losses this insectoid monster race had escaped and arrived at the sky continent Sigrani, causing a disaster.
As for the Star God Clan, it was a legendary existence iof the God Race. Valkyrie Cynthia had only seen sparse records concerning Star God Clan in a few ancient books of Heavenly God Clan. That was a God Race that had used high technology. More than ten thousand years ago, Star God Clan had activated an ultimate weapon similar to a black hole to self-destruct and seal themselves together with that Alien Monster Clan. That was a legendary matter of God Race.
The last resort of Mood God Clan had failed. The sealed leader of the insectoid monster race had fallen to Ximengsi Continent along with Mahades and recovered after eight hundred years. Surprisingly, disaster hadn’t immediately struck Ximengsi Continent because of the deterrence of another monster force. The people of Ximengsi Continent would never have expected monsters from another world to have protected them for over two hundred years..
“Lord Clyde, can you help the innocent people of Ximengsi Continent? Even in our most flourishing time, the combat power of our Heavenly God Clan was not comparable to the Moon God Clan of those years, not to mention now. We are not the opponent of the insectoid monster race.”
“Cynthia, do you think I will help the Human Race with my evil god status? What’s more is that your everything already belongs to me. You basically have nothing to entice me!”
“This... Lord Clyde, I think you are the type that likes to rule the Human Race, different from those demon kings who massacre everyone. Lord Clyde, as long as you help me, I can help you think of a way to trick the other valkyries into serving you. Their appearances... none are any inferior to me. You will like them.”
“You should have said that earlier! It’s as easy as lifting my finger. Now, I will go and deal with that leader of the insectoid monster race.”
After hearing Cynthia’s offered reward, his heart moved. Although it wasn’t his hobby to collect beauties, it would be a great achievement to incorporate all the valkyries into his own forces. The God Race of this different world had several branches. Valkyrie Cynthia belonged to the Heavenly God Clan, which was a clan with low strength amongst God Race. If Heavenly God Clan perished, the various clans of God Race might join together and form a united front. At that time, it would be difficult to deal with them. Therefore, drawing Heavenly God Clan over to his side and controlling all the valkyries would allow him to sneak beneath the radar and slowly split the alliance of God Race.
“Lord Clyde, I...”
“Okay, Cynthia, we have already agreed! After we have dealt with this, you can return and give me first-hand data about the other valkyries. You shouldn’t deceive me; otherwise, I will go to your Divine Realm and look for them. At that time...”
Cynthia hadn’t expected Clyde’s attitude to change so quickly. As soon as he heard about the other valkyries, he immediately agreed. Now, it was too late to go back on her words. When Cynthia had signed the special contract with Clyde, she had known of his terrifying strength. She couldn’t imagine Heavenly God Clan winning against him. With his strength, it would be hard to avoid complete extermination if they went against him. However, cooperating with him was not so bad. Like this at least, Heavenly God Clan and the Human Race of Ximengsi Continent would be protected.
After making a secret deal, Clyde was in a good mood and directly went to the center of Mahades while carrying Cynthia. He planned to directly attack the leader of the insectoid monster race hiding there since its whole army had not yet fallen to Ximengsi Continent. Now, only these insectmen monsters were guarding the insectoid monster leader. It was not very difficult to kill it.
From its previous energy reaction, the combat power of the insectoid monster leader was on the level of Ancient Demon King Andrisno. It had not completely rid itself of its seal. Clyde didn’t even need to use any equipment or weapons. He directly went in from the front door while carrying Valkyrie Cynthia. He was not at all worried about the situation reversing on him.
As long as he killed the insectoid monster leader, the combat power of these insectmen monsters would be greatly reduced. At that time, he could instigate a battle between the insectmen monsters and underground ratmen again, making both sides suffer. It was the best plan. When that time came, due to the impact of the war, many underground ratmen and insectmen monsterswould flee to the ground above, disturbing the human troops stationed in the Needham Plains.
If Marques Charles was adept in scheming like the three earls, he would retreat with his 120,000 troops without fighting. At that time, Clyde’s Steinbeck Fief would easily capture the Needham Plains without spending a single soldier. That would be the perfect result.
“Lord Clyde, could you...”
“No problem, Cynthia. I don’t need to lift my hands to deal with that guy. When we first met, I also captured you without lifting a hand.”
