Hero of Darkness

Chapter 631 On The Other Side

Chapter 631 On The Other Side

While Havi was entrapped in an ancient formation while being surrounded by four 7th stage saints in the desolate and barren lands of the northern plains, the middle of the eastern grasslands had a similar scenario where his children aka Hector and Venessa along with Kahn were surrounded by the 8 members of the Hero's Party.

The trio had anxious expressions as they were surrounded by enemies who did not hide their hostile intent from all sides.

"Take this. This will protect you in case a fight starts." spoke Venessa as he handed Kahn an artifact.

This exchange was noticed by Axel and his countenance turned furious but he quickly hid his malicious intent.

The very next moment, he took a golden cross-shaped artifact and quickly activated it.

A pillar of white and blue aura rose and ascended high in the sky at a rapid pace. Within just a few seconds, a massive dome that spread over 50 kilometers in radius came to be.

Before the trio could react to what just happened, this dome turned invisible.

"There's no point, princess. The space is sealed in 50 kilometers. Apart from me, the one who holds the artifact, no one else can leave.

Unless you kill me, there's no way you can escape." spoke Axel with a smug smile on his face as he folded both of his arms together.

"You're after us, right? He has nothing to do with it. Let him leave!" shouted Venessa.

"As if they will let a witness leave." said Kahn who stood a few meters behind her.

[System, is the space around here sealed?] he queried.

[Yes. Teleportation scrolls would not work under this dome. However…

With the host's attainment in the Dimensional Law divine ability and his current rank… the host can leave this place anytime he wishes using the dimension void crack.] reported the system.

[I see.]

If he willed it, Kahn could instantly leave using the dimensional void crack just with a thought. But that also meant risking his identity being exposed to the Hero's Party.

On top of it… he still didn't know why or how he got entangled in this.

Why was he added to the group of people to be kidnapped?

Before, Kahn thought that the Hero's Party or the Emperor possibly knew about his real identity. But from the looks of it… this was actually a plot to trap the imperial scions. As for the truth about his background… nobody seemed to have a single clue.

[Means there is another reason why I got caught in this situation.] he thought inwardly.

However, Kahn couldn't just leave. Because although he could escape using the true dimension, Venessa couldn't.

She was his friend and Kahn never left his allies to die whether it was other living people or even his own generals and Omega.

Thus, he decided to stay and also get a hint about the happenings he was completely unaware of.

Plus, the Hero's Party members seemed to be looking forward to a fight.

While Kahn was lost in thoughts… Axel receives a transmission through a communication artifact.

"Finally! They've trapped the Emperor. We're good to go." he declared with a content smile.

"What do you mean?" asked Hector who had his eyes wide open.

"Ha ha ha! It's just as you heard.

We let you live till now only because we wanted to make sure your father fell into our trap while trying to rescue you two. One could say that both of you were our bargaining chips.

And now that your father has been trapped. There is no reason to keep you alive." replied Axel as he snickered.

"Now!" spoke Venessa as she looked at Kahn.

He quickly activated the artifact given by her and a yellow-colored crystalline barrier instantly appeared around him, completely encapsulating his body.

BOOM!!

BOOM!!

With two loud bursts of aura, one yellow while the other being crimson red… Hector and Venessa took out their swords as they revealed their battle intent.

Hector nodded at Venessa as he revealed his rank of a 2nd stage saint. She nodded back and brandished her sword which instantly caught fire.

At this moment, both the imperial scions let go of their differences and formed a temporary alliance given the perilous situation.

Meanwhile, Kahn was forced back over a kilometer distance as he was protected from the shockwaves of the aura explosions full of saint pressure.

However, nobody paid attention to him as their targets were the imperial scions. To them, Kahn was only a Blacksmith with no fighting capabilities. And he couldn't even leave the barrier even if he wanted to. So nobody paid attention to this newborn chick.

All the figures suddenly ascended in the sky using their saint pressures and surrounded each other at reasonable distances of a couple of kilometers.

Unlike Havi, both of them were not under some sort of suppression barrier. And right before Kahn's eyes, a fight broke out between the members of the Hero's Party and the imperial scions.

Each one facing 3 members on their own.

Kahn then looked at the two individuals who still hadn't made a move.

Axel and the black armored trident user behind him… these two were the strongest members of the Hero's Party but only decided to watch from a distance for now.

A fierce battle between two melee class fighters and mages, tanks and archers took place in a 10 kilometers region.

But as time passed, both of them were suppressed because although they were strong, both the imperial scions were outnumbered.

"Looks like we have no choice." spoke Hector as he glanced at Venessa who was fighting on the other side.

With a loud bang, two large fire pillars rose in the sky and in just 20 seconds, two transformed figures appeared in front of everyone after the fire subsided.

"Holy shit!" Kahn couldn't hide his amazement as he was taken aback after seeing the bloodline transformations of the imperial family.

Hector's height was multiplied by twice while his waving fiery hair turned waistlengh. The two horns coming out from the sides of his head elongated and they too caught fire. However, unlike his normal appearance, a third horn protruded out of his forehead. The current aura he emitted was of a 3rd stage saint, equally rivaling that of Axel in every sense.

The blade of his greatsword also caught fire and exuded a threatening pressure.

Before Kahn could get a glimpse at Venessa's transformation, Rathnaar spoke in Kahn's mind.

[Kid… you're in for a big show.]
