Taming Master Chapter 318:
Ian had a very tight hunting schedule, and his retainer Yankun had finally achieved level 390 .
As soon as Yankun reached level 390, Ian broke through the gates . Ian went through the 30th to 31st and finally entered the 30th division .
As soon as Ian entered the 30th division after opening the gate, his mouth opened wide .
“Wow, what is this . Is this the great wall?”
The scene that Ian’s eyes were witnessing was like the Great Wall .
Kaka who was flying next to Ian asked .
“Master, what’s a great wall?”
Ian replied .
“There is this huge country called China, and there was an emperor who had built a huge wall . ”
Due to the short knowledge that Ian had, that was the limit of his answer .
But even with such a short answer, Kaka’s eyes were shining .
“China? The great wall? This is the first time I heard that name, master . ”
Ian responded with an impatient look .
“Well, that’s for sure . China is not a country of this world . ”
“Oho, so it is the empire that exists in the world where my master usually goes over to . ”
Ian nodded .
“Well, you can put it like that . ”
Ian’s gaze went towards Kaka, whose eye was trying to take in the beauty of the magnificent wall in front of him .
The wall was lined up endlessly along the horizon, and with the red sky behind it, it looked like a painting .
‘I’ll have to go over there . ’
Ian’s gaze moved in the direction of Yankun .
“Yankun . ”
“Master?”
“Will you be able to do it?”
Yankun thought for a second and nodded with a confident look .
“Yes, master . ”
Ian laughed and spoke .
“You seem to have twice the confidence today than yesterday?”
Yankun replied with a gentle expression .
“With the equipment, you lent to me master, I can take down even the topmost Noblesse . ”
Ian lent all his equipment to Yankun the moment he had reached the 30th division .
Since Yankun didn’t know how to handle a spear, Ian couldn’t lend him his Judgement of the Spirit King . However, he had given Yankun all of his anti-magic equipment settings .
Yankun’s anti-magic set was almost 60%, which wasn’t as high as Ian’s .
Besides, Ian wore the items before, so the option was all previously set by him .
If the setting was enough, it would be possible for Yankun to win against a top noblesse .
“Don’t stress it too much, Yankun . ”
“I understand, Master . I will definitely win . ”
Ian spoke in a calm voice .
“I’ll let you borrow my equipment till the end of the term, but… you know right?”
“…”
Yankun felt his whole body freeze .
* * *
Ian was able to cross the Wall of Chaos without much difficulty .
Yankun showed something to the gatekeeper, and he had silently allowed them to pass through .
On top of that, one of the guards had even guided them out of kindness .
Ian asked something that he was curious about .
“Yankun, What is that?”
“The Seal of the Greater Asmodian . ”
“Umm…? The seal of Greater Asmodian…”
The Seal of Half-Devil, even Ian had this .
Ian was also a higher-level Asmodian ( Half-Devil), and it was naturally created into his inventory when he had turned into the Half-Devil .
But Ian had no reason to be surprised .
“But it looks a little different from the seal that I have . ”
Ian had a headache .
Ian’s seal was like a sword, but in Yankun’s seal, there was a strong red light .
Yankun replied .
“Well, basically, the half and pure Asmodians have a different appearance . However, it is a different matter based on the devil energy . When all the qualifications for upgrading to the next rank are met, the seal will change automatically . ”
“Oho? Hmm… but Yankun . ”
“Go on, master . ”
“I have around 5 million devil energy, so basing on what you said, do I need another additional qualification?”
Yankun nodded .
“I’m not sure about the requirements to upgrade for to a Noblesse . But if the seal marking has not changed, then it means you’re still unqualified . ”
But now, Yankun was the one that needed to upgrade to Noblesse, but even Ian wanted to become a Noblesse .
‘How am I supposed to qualify?’
In fact, Ian wasn’t much interested in the Noblesse till recently .
In case of a pure Asmodian, it increases every time they were in a battle, but in the case of a Half-Asmodian, there was no increase in rank apart from the increase in stats .
Magic attack rate, magic resistance, and basic wear .
They alone were worth the upgrade, but Ian hadn’t thought about them as he had many other important things to do .
However, after the end of the dimensional war, his priority had changed a bit .
A Myth class bow was dropped from Khalifa .
It was because of the Noblesse rating that Ian was able to wear the item ‘God’s rage’ .
In any case, showing the seal of the qualified Asmodian, and then expressing their intention to challenge the King of Trails . Their party was guided to the King of Chaos even though their motives were already known .

“You have a precious guest . ”
Ian who had confronted the Devil was nervous and became flustered as he chose the words he would say .
‘What does he mean?’
Ian, the protagonist for the victory of Dimensional War .
That being said, Ian was the main cause for the defeat of the Asmodians in the Dimensional War .
So, that was why Ian was nervous about confronting the Devil, but the reaction of Liliana was very soft .
Ian looked at her but had no idea as to what she was going to do .
‘Better be careful . This is the enemy’s place . ’
Ian spoke after some deep thoughts .
“Do you know me?”
Liliana nodded and put up a very meaningful smile .
“How can I—Liliana, not know you? All the rulers of Devildom probably know you, Ian . ”
“Oh… I understand . ”
Liliana laughed while touching her horns and looking at Ian who wasn’t sure about how he was supposed to respond .
“It is a very nice gesture, by the way . It hasn’t been long since the Dimensional War had ended, it is astonishing to find you here . ”
Ian decided to be confident and continued to talk .
“War is war . I thought that the prince would put an end to the war, but he couldn’t do it since he was alone . In addition, from the human’s point of view, it was plain self-defense . ”
Liliana who hadn’t spoke immediately burst into laughter .
“Ho **** ho, you’re really an unusual person, you sure are . ”
Liliana watched Ian very closely and said .
“Actually, you’re words aren’t so wrong . Due to the lack of power of our Asmodians, we were defeated in the war . ”
Ian who heard her words was relieved .
‘Phew, I feel like I’ve lost ten years of my life . ’
But Liliana’s words didn’t end there .
“However, I’m the monarch who rules over Devildom, and my position is a little different from normal Asmodians . You are a great enemy who had great power, but I am a monarch of this kingdom . Are you thinking that you could just take me on and neglect being punished?”
“…!”
Looking at Ian’s confused expression, Liliana put up a funny face .
Liliana sat her long white legs and stared at Ian .
Ian was nervously looking at her, and slowly her red lips opened .
“But you’re one lucky person . ”
“What do you mean by that?”
“Fortunately, I don’t like the boasters much . If you weren’t so **** yourself and tried to be modest, you would’ve been dead before you faced me . Or probably be trapped . ”
Ian understood his situation right now .
‘Boaster… that was . Then Devil Liliana is a modest?’
Ian’s head was spinning rapidly .
‘And favoring a half-devil, the Devil Ricardo also, said the same . ’
Through his exchange of words with Liliana, Ian roughly realized the situation and the circumstance of Devildom .
Liliana’s words continued .
“But that doesn’t mean I’m on your side . ”
“I understand that . ”
Liliana licked her lips .
“Nice . The reason as to finding the monarch of Chaos . Let’s start with that . ”
Ian gulped down his spit and waited for her next words .
But instead of opening her mouth, she clapped her hands .
Chak-
And one of the Asmodians who were lined up beside Liliana came forward .
“You have called?”
Liliana tilted her head and commanded .
“Kiryan, will be the opponent for your Asmodian . ”
All the Asmodians, seemed clueless but replied with a loud voice .
“Order received!”
* * *
The magic Noblesse used were called ‘Nobility’ .
When a noblesse turns into a Nobility in Devildom, they turn to the vested group of the Devildom .
After getting the power from it, the rank would be decided based on it .
The Noblesse were the strongest ones, who were entitled to the interest of Devildom .
Ian mumbled .
“Kiryan, huh? What would the rank of that Asmodian be?”
The standards of the noblesse in the Devildom were a bit too complicated .
On the base, there was a sequence from 1 to a thousand that were granted by skills . And the interesting thing about it was if one got pushed down from 1000, even then their class wouldn’t get demoted .
In order to become a noblesse, one would have to win against a noblesse, but once he turns into a Noblesse, he wouldn’t be able to go back to being a greater-Noblesse .
Instead, the Noblesse who got out from the rank was subjected to “Out of sequence” treatment and was pushed away from the Devildom .
Kaka who was beside Ian spoke in a voice that only Ian could hear .
“You can see the City of Chaos as the city is ruled by Liliana… but this is also a top city among the various cities of Devildom . ”
“Oh . ”
Kaka continued .
“The Devil Liliana will surely hold a high position for the Noblesse Asmodian and that means that there is enormous power in Devildom . ”
Kaka who was concerned looked over at Kiryan and opened her mouth once again .
“Well, I’m not sure, but I think that he could be around level 500, master . ”
Ian touched his head after hearing what Kaka just said .
“Huh? In such an outstanding city, only 500?”
Kaka replied with his head down .
“Not only 500, master . The Noblesse who are between 1 to 100 are the Devil Princes, and those between 200 and 400 are noblesse, most of them will enter the Devil Temple, the center of Devildom . Those over 500 are the ones who are not supposed to be messed with . ”
“Devil temple…? Now, what is that . ”
Ian’s curiosity was triggered by what Kaka just said, but Kaka didn’t respond immediately .
“I’ll tell you that the next time, master . It’s not something you need to know right now, and I still need to collect information . ”
“Collect information? From where?”
Kaka replied while rolling her eyes .
“Stop asking me, master . You need to start upgrading Yankun . ”
Ian’s curiosity died down after hearing what Kaka said and looked over at Kiryan and Yankun getting into the Altar .
The Devil Liliana who was sitting on the other side of Ian looked ominous .
