Chapter 379: King Of The Jungle

After overlooking the important matters of the Verlassen fiefdom and discussing the important issues related to public order, services, economy and people's court that was currently made into a separate department of the government itself, Kahn decided that it was about time he began his next hunt.

The next day at noon, Kahn, Omega and the Generals departed for a particular region of the fiefdom at the western end again.

Hiryano.

Their destination was the densely populated border of the region of Verlassen that was previously controlled and run by Commander Aswala.

This was the second time Kahn had visited this region in his warship and this time, he brought over 3 million covenant soldiers boarded on thousands of flying ships. But unlike before, he didn't bring in so many people to capture or fight his enemies but to use them for a different purpose.

Unlike Xena, the Hiryno area had a five hundred kilometers of forested borders and had a bigger casualty count during the monster tides every year thanks to the scams that had been happening here for decades regarding military and weapon businesses.

After Kahn took and the bearkin semi-saint and publicly killed him, law, military, businesses and underworld were completely in his control without people knowing a single thing.

The North had two semi-saint commanders because that was the widest monster infested area in the fiefdom that was inhabited by the ferocious frost giants. But with commander Aswala out of the picture, he had placed his own people here too.

And when his warships landed over the open plains of the main military outpost at the border, he was welcomed by a group of military officers. And the two figureheads who led that group were the men Kahn was quite familiar with.

All of them knelt in front of Kahn with nothing but respect and worshipping gaze in their eyes.

"I'm glad I didn't make a wrong choice by leaving you two in charge of this region." spoke Kahn as he looked at the two peak grandmasters.

"Stand up… Commander Elijah and Commander Niklaus." he ordered.

The Stark Brothers!

After Kahn was done overtaking the fiefdom including this region, instead of wasting extra manpower or trying to recruit another semi-saint, Kahn left the two peak grandmasters in charge of leading the military here.

So he only needed a contingency in case there were some incidents. Hence he put both the Stark brothers who were even to fill in the shoes of a semi-saint together.

The same way he did with Kassandra Mikealson for a different region because she was an ally and he needed strong individuals protecting these hotspots.

"Thank you, my lord. We will never forget the trust and faith you've put into us." spoke Elijah, the elder brother who was a Druid by profession.

"Thank you for this opportunity, my lord. I have been able to serve you and our fiefdom because of the chance you gave us.

I will do my best to prove your decision right." spoke Niklaus, the younger brother who was a dual swordsman.

"No need to thank me. You were capable and had the experience to lead an army even before we met. So it was a natural choice to leave the best candidates to protect this region." replied Kahn with a nod.

Kahn and his entourage then held a meeting between all the military officers who handled different outposts of this region and told them about his plans to thin out the numbers of monsters.

So he informed them to be ready in case any monster tide happened in his absence. Also that he'd be leaving the covenant army as the first line of defense instead of normal. soldiers.

"Please let us come with you, my lord!" spoke Elijah vehemently.

Because Kahn was going to explore the inner regions of this monster infested forest by himself. Something that even commander Aswala didn't dare to do when he was alive.

Both brothers were in awe because in their eyes, Kahn was doing it to protect the lives of people and soldiers as he put the covenant soldiers at the front.

He was knowingly risking his life to protect the people by going inside while only being a semi-saint. And that too with limited numbers of just 4 peak grandmaster allies. This was a completely unprecedented scenario in the history of this fiefdom.

"No. Both of you are needed here in case something happens to us. You two are the strongest people in this region so I command you to handle matters here.

If worst comes to worst, there should be a force of deterrence." commanded Kahn to both the brothers.

However, none of the people present here knew the real intentions behind his command. Because in reality, Kahn did so because the covenant soldiers were his own forces and they'd die if they went against his orders.

Plus it made him look good in front of the masses as the news of his arrival was definitely going spread across all the cities soon. And this way, he'd appear as a sovereign who cared for the citizens and soldiers of the fiefdom alike.

That he'd rather use his own soldiers who had become a representation of law and justice in this fiefdom than risk the lives of native peoples regardless of them being a commoner or a soldier.

Kahn also needed people to stop interfering in his hunts and wanted to hide the real reason behind his expeditions. So the covenant soldiers that were made of murderers, rapists and cannabalists whose lives were not even worth thinking twice about were his best choice.

Anyone else would only hinder his activities.

When Kahn's crew departed and traveled through the border region, they headed straight towards the inner regions that were hunting grounds for people from adventurer and hunter professions.

For the first few days, Omega and the three generals hunted different types of monsters that were unseen and unknown to him before.

Hybrids between different elemental species and monsters such as ice elemental monsters that seemed combinations of tigers and leopards. There were simply too many monsters and different species for Kahn to count. So after a point, his brain went into an automatic mode and only created new subordinates without even absorbing their abilities.

Low level monsters simply didn't make the cut for him anymore.

And because of the endless supply of S Rank and SS Rank mana cores and ores he currently had, Kahn now had an army of 300 thousand members in legion and over two thousand of them were Lord rank monsters and eighty thousand were also variants.

However, their skills were limited and useful only for adding the numbers in a large-scale battle than specific fighting class abilities like the generals whom Kahn had evolved from scratch and merged with the dungeon bosses that lied inside his Ex-girlfriend aka the Bromnir dungeon.

Now, Each one of them got an army of their own which consisted of 20 to 30 thousand members and belonged to classes and abilities that would help in a large-scale battle.

The entire forested region went into havoc and Kahn's subordinates culled out the numbers to lessen the burden on the soldiers as well as raised their own numbers.

On the fifth day however, finally they found something noteworthy which piqued Kahn's attention.

This time, Ronin who was leading thousands of legion members with hiding and reconnaissance abilities, found something interesting and informed Kahn through the transmission artifact.

Under Kahn's orders, all the other generals and Omega who accompanied him reached there after four hours.

The area where they gathered was full of marshlands within 50 kilometers of radius and mostly filled with aquatic and poisonous monster species. Kahn himself saw plenty of new types of species that looked like evolved versions of crawling centipedes and fishes, big enough to sink titanic on their own.

And finally, after they met with Ronin who had thousands of his underlings carefully surrounding a 10 kilometers radius from various directions, closing off the escape routes of whatever lay inside.

Kahn and the other finally saw the being that was the regional boss of these lands and the one that sent shivers in their spines after seeing its figure.

A gigantic slithering purple figure whose length could not be predicted even from the bird's eye view and its body leaking poisonous gas from various outlets.

"It's definitely a Legendary Rank monster." spoke Omega as he and other finally saw the King of the Jungle.

However, the next moment… all of them were rooted on the spot. Just now, they finally saw the head of this venomous legendary rank monster.

And its head reminded all of them of a certain someone they knew very well.

"Ha ha ha!!

Haha ha!!

Haha!!

Finally, a worthy opponent."

Just then, Rudra laughed from inside of Kahn's shadow with an excited voice. His voice sounding joyful and his battle intent fired up as soon as he too noticed the creature.

Rudra continued in an exhilarated tone as he declared…

"Our battle shall be legendary!"
