Chapter 126: Tear the beard off
Harry smiled radiantly as he flew through the tunnel that he had used to enter the core of the cave, flying as fast as he could so that he could exit this cave. The system only gave him the details of how to use cursed stone as a power source like fossil fuels. It would depend on them if they could use these details properly.
He wanted to go to his kingdom as soon as possible to start using the technology he had received. He knew that there was no need to rush so much, and that even if he reached his kingdom as soon as he could, it would still take him a few days to properly build the technology.
Even so, excitement was coursing through his veins. He felt like a child who had just started an anime or bought a game before sleeping. The child had to sleep, but he would be unable to do that because of the urge to try out the game or binge watch the series.
[Author's Note: That was probably not a good example, but you get what I mean, right?]
——————————————
The old demon was meditating peacefully when his disciple's voice rang out, "Master, I have important information for you!"
The old demon opened his eyes and looked at his disciple with a serene expression. "What is it? How did the war turn out? I am sure that the humans won, but just how badly did the witches lose? How much did the humans ask for as a ransom to release the war prisoners?"
The young disciple was taken aback by the barrage of questions that his master shot at him.
But he understood the fact that his master would most likely want to know whatever news he had, and thus he said, "Master, the kingdom of Shusite has been wiped off the map."
If it was anyone else, they would have probably thought that they heard the young disciple wrong, but the old demon who from the start did not underestimate the human male, asked with hesitation, "Wiped off as in, he conquered the kingdom and renamed it as something else?"
He had expected that this could happen. After all, they did not know just how powerful the humans are yet. So he did expect that they may not be that affected by the attack by the witch army and instead strike back successfully.
But even he did not expect the answer that came from his disciple's mouth.
"Wiped off as in…. completely destroyed. The kingdom has been razed into nothing but ashes. Every single witch who lived in that kingdom is dead.", the disciple said with a grave tone.
The old demon swallowed heavily as he asked, "They were that ruthless?"
The disciple nodded with a solemn expression.
"How many people did they use to get through the barrier and successfully capture the kingdom?", the old demon asked.
The old demon knew that the witch kingdoms have pesky barriers that surround them. It made life much harder for the demons in many occasions.
"Master... they did not use a single person to destroy the kingdom.", the disciple said with an expression which showed that he did not whether he should laugh or cry.
"What?!", the old demon growled.
What is his disciple talking about? How can anyone attack and take over a kingdom without even entering it? Unless... the human king made the witches fight internally and revolt? He caused a civil war and then made the witches join him with a few tempting deals?
But.... that made no sense! The witches are known to be extremely prideful over the fact that they are witches, and see normal humans as lower beings! They are also extremely loyal to their race! There was no way that any witch would pair up with a human, let alone work under him!
Wait a second, didn't his disciple just say that every single one of the witches that live in Shusite have been killed?
Then, HOW?!
Maybe he became partners with the kingdom of Aduseon, and asked them to assist him and destroy the kingdom of Shusite?
Wait... the witch ancestor would not let that happen at any cost!

Author's Note :
The first free 59 chapters have officially been rewritten! Just read them already I say!
JUST REREAD FROM THE START! The story follows a different plotline this time and also has a different pace. SO JUST DO IT! [Shouts and growls madly like a beast]
Skip all this if you don't have time to read it.
-----------------------------------
[Author sighs and says, "Editor - san, gimme some more ideas... what do I do?! I have got to somehow increase the word count.
Editor puts his chin in his hand and enters deep thinking mode and says, "I have an idea, but isn't increasing the word count like this cheating the readers?"
Author sighs and says, "Of course not. I'll be writing the rewritten version too right? So they'll get double the content if they unlock this one chapter. The first one being the old version one and then the new one with cannibalism and all."
Editor smiles and says, "Well that's more fair I guess. So, maybe you can add a long lengthy authors note that you remove when you write the rewritten version?"
Author smiles guilty, "Yes... that's the only way. I'll definitely remove it afterwards and give them quality stuff... I mean I'm forced to do this now because I have boards, [a very important test in India ] , and have to prepare for it while preparing for the monthly exams they keep... so I'm not really free till June 10th."
Editor whistles, "Damn. That's a long time from now."
"I know, but I have these monthly tests to prepare for, and like boards are considered like a divine test in India. There are students who suicide upon failing them and all.", the author says while sighing.]
Please read the story from the start again. I'm rewriting it. I assure you it'll be good (pats chest). Like I'm including stuff like a secret group of assassins for Harry, and all. I'm also thinking of including a function like scope of personality that will give him powers to examine all his citizens and kill those who are not loyal [Grins evilly and scarily.]
Gimme your Power Stones, please! I'm not getting many good features, and it may help if I enter the top 200. The 199th novel has like 380 Power stones, so gimme 400!
Lol, it's not like I'm asking it for free. You'll get 4 chapters on Sunday if you gimme those 400 Power stones. [Pleading expression].
Join my discord server for a lot of cool stuff, okay? Like you get live chapter rewrite status, and I tend to talk about any new ground-breaking things about the story there, and, best of all, you can give me ideas for the story! Well, you can give it down in the comments too.
Anyway, take care all you readers. If you ever just need a shoulder to cry on about life, just dm [personal message] me in discord. I'll definitely listen to you as soon as I'm online in discord.
I stress this again, please read the story from the start once more. You'll have many surprises. If you just like the old version, then go to google and search, I Will Conquer The World.
The last time I checked, a piracy website was letting people read my first 59 free chapters, which were of the old version. Yeah also since I rewrote the first fifty nine chapters, you can just read them. If you like that version, then follow it, or just follow this old version. But I have to warn you, in that version, Robinson and Lauren are killed by Harry, three new characters are introduced, and Harry is much, much more scheming.
All in all, to wrap things up nicely for this chapter, thank you to all my readers. I appreciate your support and love you show to my book. Even your hate helps me improve. I admit, this is not the best book. But, I am trying my best to at least make it into a memorable experience for all you readers. I sincerely hope you read the book from the start again, as there are lots of surprises waiting to be discovered. Yeah so just read from the start you know? I don't have any more methods to tempt you to start the book again. So just read from the start, please. Please, read from the start.
I've also started using a grammar app, and so the overall quality should improve, like small typos and grammar errors. It's been a lovely experience writing, and I want it to be a lovely experience for you readers to read my book.
Shoutout to ArashiTenebris for giving me more and more ideas for the book. You've been a great help while I rewrite my book.contemporary romance
