The Author's POV

Chapter 508

Minutes prior to ambushing the Greed clan, I sent a message to the Wrath clan.

In the message, I told them that the Sloth clan and the Gluttony clan were planning on secretly working together to ambush the Greed clan.

Although my words sounded sketchy, I provided them with the exact location of where the Ambush was going to happen and told them that they knew that they were planning an ambush against someone called 'The white death' and that it was all a ruse in order to make the Greed clan act, and use that opportunity to deal damage to them.

Since the Wrath clan was allied with the Greed clan, all they had to do was contact them and confirm the information that I told them.

Once they were able to confirm my words, the rest was pretty much self-explanatory.

While everyone was staring into the distance, I slowly stood up.

'I should probably take my leave...'

My plan was pretty much done.

If there was a time for me to leave, then it was now. With everyone still confused and startled by the sudden situation, I prepared to use this chance to leave.

Taking another look toward the sky, I sighed in relief.

"That was close..."

Fortunately for me, the plan somehow worked out. By exploiting the demon's desire to harm each other, I was able to create this scenario.

In any case, I had never been too worried about the plan failing. I had three more plans prepared just in case this one failed.

Not that I wanted it to fail, but I wasn't delusional. I never once thought that my plan couldn't fail.

I found myself doubting my plan a lot, but in the end, it seemed as though the demons had been at peace for too long to realize what had happened.

"Good for me."

Masking my presence as much as possible, I quietly left the area and headed toward the Pride Clan's territory.

My goal here had been achieved.

It was time for me to move to the next part.

"How long till we reach our destination?"

Halting for a bit, I rested my hand by the side of the tree.

It had been about half a day since I left the conflict, and by now, the sun was already starting to set.

Considering that I was under a time constraint, I knew that I could waste as little time as possible.

"We're almost there. About two hours."

"Two hours!?"

I groaned.

It had to be noted that when he meant two hours, it meant two hours of me running at full speed.

Not only that, but I also had to watch out for the monsters and demons in my way. If anything, that only served to make me even more tired.

"Hurry up, you don't have much time. Keep going straight."

"…Fine."

Recollecting my breath, I once again dashed forward.

"I can't waste time..."

I had a goal in mind when acting on the previous plan. Primarily, I wanted to turn the attention of the Pride clan away from their own territory.

Although the conflict was a minor one, it was still a conflict.

It could serve as a great excuse for the other clans to start conflicts with each other.

This was exactly what I wanted.
