"So, who are they?"

"Huh? Who?" asked Avery once again with a confused face.

"Your enemies..." the devil asked with a playful smile that he was trying so hard to suppress.

"D-Did not you just say you know them?" Avery guessed something scary. She shook her head and asked while stuttering.

"Hmmm?? Now I wonder when did I say that? You are questioning my integrity little Avery" Kylo replied clutching his chest, acting like he is pained.

Avery was in a daze right now. She was just stupidly blinking while staring at Kylo. The little amount of gratefulness she was feeling towards Kylo immediately vanished into thin air.

She now felt completely cheated. Infact she knew it was her fault to get cheated but she could not help but feel cheated.

She suddenly started grumbling something incoherently which Kylo could not hear and seemed like she was about to turn crazy when she suddenly turned calm and showed a serene smile on her face. But if someone noticed closely they could see a touch of schadenfreude in her eyes.

And obviously Kylo noticed those changes. He was about to peek in her soul out of habit but stopped himself from doing so. It would ruin his fun if he peeked in her soul all the time.

Kylo asked after clearing his throat "So what did my little Avery remember to make her happy now?"

Avery smiled like an angel and replied to Kylo "Actually the thing is..... dear master.... you are in deep shit"

Kylo was silent for a moment. He got goosebumps when she called him 'dear master'. And he was more surprised how much she changed.

[So it is true *sigh* Adversity is really the best teacher.]

Obviously the adversity was Kylo in case of Avery.

"Then why am I in deep shit?" Kylo asked with a smile.

"Do you remember the girl you killed during our fight?"

"Err... that trash blue haired girl?" Kylo thought for a moment before replying.

"Yeah, that girl you see is actually an exiled girl from a high branch of the organization. It was said she rejected a marriage or something like that caused displeasure with the organisation.

Because of this incident her family got angry and they exiled her far in a province with little energy in the air and almost no resources so that she could not cultivate and end up agreeing with them. I do not know about what though.

But no matter what she was from one of the highest rank branches. Let us forget about the branch, she was also from a reputed mage family. You killed her, I am sure they would come to look for a reason.

In fact dozens of Supremos or above Supremos should be arriving from their organisation, Tour Magique in order to lead the investigation.

And from what I heard in last few days, Malkam is also moving behind the scenes to take revenge in any possible way.

And if these were not enough to mess you up then the Xia clan will also move for revenge.

Oh if you want to know why Xia clan then it is because of the badly injured guy you killed. He was a king after all." Avery never removed the angelic smile from her face when she bombarded him with multiple bad news.

After a moment of silence Kylo looked towards Avery and said "So I am really in deep shit"

"Hehehe indeed you are in deep shit my dear master~"

"....."

"....."

".....*Sigh* why do trashes keep on coming when all I want is to peacefully recover my strength." Kylo let out a loud sigh.

"Who said you to go and kill anyone randomly." Avery still had her angelic smile.

"Well, let us not dwell upon the past and plan the best for the future."

Even though Kylo said that a trace of worry could be seen on his face. Yes all those arriving would be trashes, if he had his previous strength.

So Kylo worrying a little is nothing strange. In fact it would be weird if he was still in a happy mood.

But he was not worried because even if he did not have enough strength all he needed was some time and he would swear to mess up the every clans, organisations, families, guilds and whatnot of this world.

But then again he needed time.

Actually the only thing that worried Kylo was

[That organization... what was that called again... Hmm.... Tour Magique huh]

After few minutes of silence Kylo once again looked towards Avery before continuing "Well I made some plans which could gain me some time. Atleast we should be able to escape within that time.

Let me ask you do you have any people under you. Does not matter whether they are cultivators or magicians or simple mortals.

I want ones whom you could sacrifice anytime you want?"

Avery's mouth twitched a little but nevertheless replied "I do not have such men whom I can sacrifice on a whim but I can have many such people you want.

I mean you just gotta bribe them and most of them will do your work even if your life is at risk."

Kylo shook his head and said "I need reliable ones who could be sacrificed. Do you have some trusted subordinates?"

"I have but I would not sacrifice them no matter what!" Avery shook her head adamantly.

"Little Avery, who said your subordinates need to be sacrificed.

Listen, bribe some mortals to do the work I am gonna say. Have your subordinates follow them.

If they are sacrificed then nothing can be done. If they are alive then have your subordinates get back with them as fast as possible and lock them in some prison for few months.

You gonna give them a reward so it is alright. They gotta endure it."

"It feels like I am cheating or something. I do not want to do this if it is not anything extremely urgent."

Kylo rolled his eyes and said "Extremely urgent? This cave could be attacked anytime, we fould be killed anytime and you are saying it is not urgent enough?"

"Well not for me..."

"..." Kylo was speechless since it was true. She did not knew about real effects of {Soul Contract} and no one knew she was meeting with Kylo secretly.

And now he could also not use his 'informing Avery's enemy' card since she knew that Kylo has no contact with her enemies.

[Is this what they call karma...] Kylo shook his head ignoring his nonsensical thoughts and continued

"*cough* well just listen, all of them might not lose their life but some of them might so be prepared.

The mortals might lose their life when they spread a rumor since they would be badmouthing the strong cultivators of your domain.

First of all spread a rumor, an exaggerated rumor of how your group was badly thrashed by a young man who just arrived that day and caused the phenomenon.

He had a heavenly treasure and your little group got greedy when you got to know about it so you all came to snatch the treasure but unfortunately in the end you all got beaten badly and 2 of them were even killed.

But add later that due to my kindness your lives were sparred but only after providing an army who can protect the peace of the surrounding area.

Especially add that bastard Malkam had to prostate and beg for his life to be spared."
