Chapter 412 411- Starting A Demonic Revolution

Zach's words started a revolution in the middle h.e.l.l against the rule of the demon lord Nirn. However, Zach's plan was far from over.

"It has just begun!"

There were hundreds of guards in the city, and they all lived in the city tower in the middle of the city. The tower itself was protected by many factors and barriers, but the top was left unprotected with only a few guards there that Zach had effort defeated.

Now that the demon citizens had begun a rebellion, the guards could no longer suppress the angry citizens. The only way to stop them was to stop their messiah Zach, who was leisurely stretching his hands at the top of the tower.

While the citizens in the middle h.e.l.l were mid-rank demons, the guards were not. Most of the guards were either peak mid-rank or high-rank demons. Otherwise, the citizens would never have to fear the guards if they were of the same rank.

Regardless, just being at high rank wouldn't necessarily mean they were strong. They were worse than low-rank demons if they didn't train or had no fighting experience.

Just like how a sword can't do anything with a dull edge, the demon citizens were powerless.

On the other hand, the guards were trained and had fighting experience. Not to mention they also had powerful weapons and high magic affinity.

All the guards patrolling in the city rushed and flew to the tower to save themselves, thinking they would be safe. Unbeknownst to them that they were heading straight to the death's door.

The foolish demon guards thought they would be able to take on Zach as he was alone and they were in hundreds. As the guards entered the tower from the doors and windows, the tower became the target of the citizens who chased the guards.

The guards' target was Zach, who had begun the revolution, and they wanted to shut him down so the citizens could go back to their weak selves.

"Time to execute the execution" Zach muttered.

He cracked his fingers and neck before leaning down on top of the tower.

"Listen carefully, citizens of the middle h.e.l.l. You should never let someone rule over you if you don't acknowledge your ruler. Tell me a single thing good about the demon lord. What has he done for you except giving you a well, h.e.l.lish life.

But that's out of the point. You live here, so you know the best. Now, answer me!" Zach knelt a little forward as though he was planning on jumping down.

"What is h.e.l.l?!" Zach asked them.

"And where are the human souls that end up in h.e.l.l? Do you know why the h.e.l.l was made? To punish the evil souls, no matter what race they belonged to. I don't see anyone other than demons here.

The demon lords of each h.e.l.l are tasked with certain quests that they must complete on a daily basis and report them to the higher-ups. None of that happens here. You are not in h.e.l.l to live your life like this! You are a demon! Go all out! Show them the monster that you are!"

Zach jumped down the moment the guards reached the top to catch him.

"Catch him!" one guard yelled.

"Don't let him escape!" another one shouted.

The guards could only yell while Zach swiftly made his escape.

"What should we do now?"

"He jumped down and blended with the angry citizens."

"We cannot find him, and even if we do, there is no way we can return alive if we go down there."

"But if we don't find me, we will be killed by the demon lord Nirn!"

"We are dead either way!"

"No! We have to kill that b.a.s.t.a.r.d before the rebellion spreads to the other cities as well.!"

"If we let him escape, then this rebellion won't end, and the demon lord Nirn will learn of this!"

"And he hates noise!"

"He will annihilate all of us, including everyone here!"

"Who is that man anyway? And why does he know so much about h.e.l.l?"

"He is a demon. The guards at the gates wouldn't let anyone enter unless they were demons."

"I have never seen him before."

"Just who is he?!"

"He was talking about killing the demon lord."

"What an idiot!"

"I know, right!"

"He has no idea how powerful the demon lord Nirn is!" nvel.

"I have heard that even the demon lords of the second and third h.e.l.l fear him!"

"Still, what if that man does what he proclaimed?"

"Are you serious? No one can enter the inner h.e.l.l to hurt the demon Lord."

"Yeah, you have never been there, so you don't know."

"Know what?" the guard asked with a confused look on his face.

"Every single demon in the inner h.e.l.l are high-rank demons."

"Yeah, I already know that."

"You don't understand. All the high-rank demons are guards, not citizens."

"Wait, you are saying that the five hundred thousand high-rank demons living in the inner h.e.l.l are all guards of the demon lord Nirn?!" he exclaimed with a baffled face.

"Yes. That man would be an idiot if he truly planned on doing what he said he would."

"I see, I see. Entering the inner h.e.l.l indeed sounds impossible. Even I am not 'that' reckless to go there alone. If all five hundred thousand high-rank demons come at me at once, I will have to waste so much time and energy defeating them. And by the time I reach the chamber of the demon lord, I am sure he will make an escape as the coward he is."

"...!"

The guards turned to each other as they tried to find the source of the voice.

Zach had indeed jumped down, but he came up again and heard everything the guards said. Moreover, that was his plan all along to get intel before foolishly cras.h.i.+ng into the inner h.e.l.l.

"He is here!" the guards yelled at the top of their lungs.

"Search him!"

"He is in this chamber!

"Close all the doors and windows, and don't open them until we find that son of a!"

The head of the guard who was speaking fell and rolled to the ground.

"Why do you all yell so much? Everyone hates when someone yells, you know? Now, let's decorate this tower with your corpses, shall we?"
