Baphomet stood there with a dazed look not knowing what he should do. freeweɓnovel.cm
The fact that he can feel the connection being formed is the evidence that a person who has a shadow monarch physique reached C rank.
But he was confused about how a sixth monarch physique holder can appear.
All five monarch physique holders are still alive, so there is no way another forbidden physique holder can appear.
Moreover, it is someone who has shadow monarch physique.
Shadow monarch, the person who died years ago.
Baphomet was sure that the shadow monarch died years ago because he is the proof of his death.
After the death of the shadow monarch, only four forbidden physique holders were left.
These four were
Winterclaw, Alistair Nightfall, Akasha and Eilistraea.
A few years after the death of the shadow monarch Baphomet was born with the demon monarch physique.
Using his demon monarch physique he climbed through the power, and now he is the ruler of all demon races in the world.
His appearance was also the confirmation that the shadow monarch truly died, because there can’t be six forbidden physique holders at the same time.
Some people always doubted about shadow monarch’s death, but when he appeared, and the world once again had five forbidden physique holders everyone were sure that he died.
After all, there can’t be six people with forbidden physiques.
But here Baphomet is seeing something that should be impossible.
‘Does it have something to do with the shadow monarch?’ Baphomet thought and tried to sense the energy flow more closely.
He never truly met with the shadow monarch because he died before his birth.
But from what he heard about him, he knew he was one of the strongest person when he was alive.
Remembering what kind of outrageous things they said about him he can’t help but think that it has something to do with him.
But soon a frown appeared on his face.
When Baphomet closely sensed the energy flow coming out from the shadow realm, he realized that the energy flow was coming out very slowly.
It was hundreds of times slower than the speed from which he formed the connection with his demon realm.
‘Why is it so slow?’ after feeling the speed at which the connection was forming, Baphomet started to doubt whether it is the same connection or not.
“Malphasar” he called out Malphasar who was here from the beginning.
Hearing Baphomet, Malphasar came forward and stood behind him.
“You told Zaganath that the energy flow was very fast at the beginning,” he asked while keeping his eyes on the portal.
“Yes, at the beginning the energy flow was very fast, but then it stopped completely for some reason”
“Just when we were thinking everything returned to normal, the energy flow came back but it was way slower than before,” Malphasar told Baphomet after hearing him.
“Hmm, there is definitely something wrong here” Baphomet muttered to himself after hearing Malphasar.
The energy flow was similar to the flow when he formed the connection with the demon realm.
But even though the energy flow was similar it was way slower than that.
Plus, he can’t believe on the fact that a sixth forbidden physique holder can appear out of nowhere.
‘Should I ask about this to others?’ Baphomet thought while looking at the entrance of the shadow realm.
Other monarch physique holders like Winterclaw have more knowledge than him since they are alive for a very long time.
He actually doesn’t even know how old all of them are.
Of course, being older than him doesn’t mean they are stronger than him.
Baphomet was sure that he can fight against any one of them with equal footing.
‘Nah, I don’t want to share the location of the shadow realm with anyone. I wouldn’t even tell Winterclaw about it if not for the fact that I will need his help after the seal is broken’ Baphomet shook his head, and decided not to tell anyone about this.
Because he is the master of the demon realm he can’t enter into the realm of other monarchs.
If he wants to enter in shadow realm he will have to break his connection with the demon realm.
But if he breaks his connection with the demon realm he will lose the source of his demonic energy.
Without demonic energy, his power will reduce compared to other monarchs.
He can form the connection again with the demon realm after exploring the shadow realm, but if other monarchs got the news that he broke his connection with the demon realm, and can’t use demonic energy they might try to do something, because it is not like they are on friendly terms with each other.
Even though he wasn’t sure what was happening with the shadow realm, he can’t tell others about it and let them know about its location that he found with so much effort.
“How is the breaking of the seal is going?” he looked at Malphasar and asked.
“It is progressing well, we should be able to break it soon” Malphasar replied in a confident filled tone after hearing Baphomet.
“Good, keep breaking the seal. Don’t worry about the energy flow, just keep an eye on it and tell me if something else happens” Baphomet said and started to walk away from there.
As he walked away from there the open area disappeared, and the area filled with dense trees once again appeared.
He came to the place where two demons were guarding the teleportation matrix, and activated it.
The teleportation matrix lit up and he once again appeared in the place from where he first used the teleportation matrix.
“Now, should I tell about this to Winterclaw since he already knew I have the location of the shadow realm, and in future when the seal will break I will have to tell him the location of the shadow realm” Baphomet muttered to himself and came out from the teleportation matrix.
