Chapter 831 Playing God
With Lenny's knowledge of master Lucian's strength, he could have actually challenged the other masters. However, he did not. And when Lenny had asked him, Master Lucian said, "Every piece on the Chess baord can be sacrificed, even the powerful queen. One must know how to play the part of the lonely pawn when he is a pawn. Else, he rebels and be sacrificed too early in the game. When he has developed enough strength to stand on his own, he drop from the board, and join the players..."
Right now, Lenny understood those words like never before. they resonated deep within him, and he could tell their every significance. After all, he had grinded and worked so hard and was now a Great Demon existence, but that was only the tip of the ice, and he knew it.
He had met the Sister's of fate, and those three literally lived outside the directorate of fate itself. And then he had met the Avatar of death that had dictated how she wanted him to court her. There were also the Royal families of Hell, and possibly his battle with the very heavens was against his master. Lenny was not a fool. He understood that, in the grand scheme of things, he was but a pawn. he might have been a very strong pawn, but for now, he was still a pawn. If he wanted to guide Fate in his own way, then he needed to be a man of incredible strength. For it is only with power that one can change their own Fate and the Fate of others. Lenny looked down below. The happenings were a great example of Willing Fate with power.
Below, he could see that Perseus with his crackling Green lightening, and Crusher with his loud roar, as they led the swarm of Flameborne Ants from Glenn's territory. Explosions happened from time to time as the giant ants committed suicide, exploding along with the enemy. But this would obviously not be enough. The undead would surely win the battle. In the future that was to happen, Lenny had read the report on the activities that nearly ended the Territory on that day. Even the sight of Lady Vinegar standing in front of the Territory, in other to protect it was not above his eyes. She fought as hard as she could, even against the undead representations of her brothers, Clawed and Duncan. She was not doing well against them. She had already lost her hands in this fight.
Lenny remembered that she had given herself to the Undead commander on this day just so that he could come back and meet those that he cared about.
At this moment, Lenny looked at the white flames in his hand, and he could understand on the spot what it meant to play 'god' and direct the lives and affairs of mortals as he saw fit. Meanwhile, within Glenn's territory, no one was aware that Lenny, their savior was right above them. No one was aware of this, except the one person that shared a blood bond with him. Insect-B looked up to the sky. The antennas on her head seemed to be searching the sky for him. For a second, she doubted her senses, but she could tell that someone she was connected to was definitely up there.
She walked out of the council building, walking around the open space. At this moment, Nikky, directing the lab assistants to move the chemical substance she had made saw her, and could not help but ask. "Insect-B, are you alright?" Insect-B turned to her, and gave a side smile with a nod. "Awwn! I know what's wrong. you are worried about Crusher. Don't worry, that muscle brain is far stronger than he looks. he will survive. Insect-B was left dumb by those words. In truth, she did not care about all that. Of course, she wanted crusher to be safe. However, in the grand scheme of things, she did not think that it mattered. After all, to her, the only thing that mattered was Lenny's words. Basically, If Lenny commanded her to exterminate the entire Territory today, she would not care if crusher was among them or not, she would instantly do it. Such was the blood bond that she had with him. Just then, there was loud Siren sounds, and everyone looked far off into the sky. Perseus and Crusher were returning back to the territory. The enemy they faced was just too much of a threat for them, and they ran back for their lives. Crusher had burn wounds on his body and even slash marks. However, he still had a smirk on his face. He was a gladiator by birth and his love for violence and blood was innate. It was at this point that Father Black summoned Nikky to the Council room. "As it stands, we have no choice but to buy some time with your concoction," Father Black stated, "...Victor is already out there fighting for us. I know the barrels that are available are not enough, but if we can buy enough time to teleport the territory to safety, then it would be enough."
Nikky nodded at his words. Immediately, she spat orders out and the helicopters were made ready for her turn to assault the undead army. But just before she left, her father called to her. "Nikky!" Scarface ran over, he had a bad feeling about what was going to happen. Nevertheless, he was well aware that they all had parts to play and this included his daughter.
As the helicopters and insects, carrying barrels of Nikky's concoction took to the skies, Victor was busy facing the undead Commander and his undead Primordial beast. But things did not look good for them. Nikky set out to pour the barrels of her concoction on the undead army. It was at this point that the undead commander noticed what was happening and he ordered his undead swarm to attack the Helicopters. Lenny far up in the sky looked below, he could see it clearly. Nikky was about to die...
