Chapter 142 The King Of Beasts.
"Do you now understand the stupidity you have just done?"
"..." Alvine remained silent for a while trying to properly digest what he had just learned.
"It is indeed disturbing. In the future, I really have to stop relying on the legends I had learned on planet earth." He murmured to himself even thinking about the consequences of his actions. This simply means that he is not different from a slave. Since he will not be able to disobey the slightest orders of his mistress. Even if she asks him to commit suicide!
"That's why we must isolate it and put her in a deep coma." Continued Sylvia with a cold tone while deeply frowning her fine eyebrows.
"Why not simply kill her? That will save us more problems, don't you think?"
"Sigh, things don't seem as simple as it seems. When she loses her life, you will also die in the seconds before her death! Coma is the only thing we could do. Before she suspects anything, I will stun her and we will bring her with us to the planet of the Punishers. We must act quickly before she can be hungry.
"Why? Does her hungry also play a role?" Alvine did not need to know what vampires eat to feed, since it was obvious to everyone who knows their species. Instead, he was concerned about another factor.
"Of course yes! You have not only become her subordinate, but also her food! You will feel her famine and as long as you do not give her your blood, you will never be able to stay quiet." She thundered these words through her tight teeth. 'Damn, he's really a magnet that is only intended to attract problems for us. A real problem magnet!' She says to herself in her thoughts by exhaling a breath of hot air.
"Indeed, it's a terrible skill!" Says Alvine in a distant tone as if he were talking about someone else's problems.
Notice his strangeness, Sylvia frowned and said, "You know, I'm not making jokes to you. All I said is the truth."
"I know."
"So why do you take this matter lightly?" She asked with a frown.
A subtle smile appeared on Alvine's lips when a familiar -Ding- resounds in his ears.
He reads the notifications with a placid look and is slightly surprised when he saw something he had not yet seen.
|Enslavement energy is detected in the heart of the host. |
|Passive competence, [Heart of the evil god] is activated. |
|You have resisted the enslavement effects. |
|After the evolution of your passive skill, all the effects of enslavement, debuffs or curses will return against his caster! |
|All conditions are met to return all the effects of the energy of the enslavement to its owner. |
'This famous skill? I still remember that he reached level two during my duel against Sabrina. It is also the same passive skill that allows me to take the form of [God of slaughter]! I'm lucky to have such a skill.'
"Don't worry, let her do what she wants. I'm sure the person who regrets her actions will not be anyone other than her!" He says with a mischievous smile. He had been able to confirm one thing, the reason he received this late notification was of course because of Liliana who had just tried to enslave him. In other words, she had the choice between letting him go or enslaving him. But she decided to make the wrong decision; a decision that will make her regret all her actions.
"What do you mean by that?" Sylvia asked, slightly raising her eyebrows. Faced with Alvine's nonchalance, she could guess that he had something in mind but, she could not guess what exactly it was.
"Maybe someone else but she is unable to submit me. Trust me, she will soon pay for this affront a hundredfold." He looked at the forest that was as far as the eye can see. 'It is a dazzling success to build a kingdom under this forest. I suppose that their weaknesses in the face of the sun are not an unfounded rumor.' He says to himself in his thoughts.
"..." she remained silent for a while. She did not know why her master was so confident, or why he was so nonchalant in front of her warnings. "So you want us to leave her like that, without taking precautions?"
"Simply forget her. I thought I had already told you that I had a skill that immunizes me against negative spells, right?" He said while flying to the underground fortress followed by Sylvia who followed him closely.
'Then this competence can even withstand the effects of the powers granted by the goddess herself? It doesn't matter to me, I still have to be careful with this girl. If I ever see that she easy something suspicious, I won't hesitate anymore.
...
In the far north of the planet, in the depths of the dark forest; more precisely in the territory of the beasts, a ferocious beast, for lack of better words to describe it was lazily lying under the shade of a giant tree about sixty meters long.
His skin was covered with scales black as black gold he had four long pointed tusks on each side of his mouth that exceeded his jaw like divine grade sai. Each nonchalant breath on his part disrupted the flows of the surrounding manas because of the amount of magical energy he inadvertently released.
In front of him were ten magical beasts that were all above emperor rank. In other words, they were all in divine rank!
"My king, the army that was commanded by Gtyura was destroyed with Gtyura himself. What are your orders regarding our next maneuvers?" On the left side of the black dragon, a red Wyvern announced this information to him with a thunderous but respectful voice.
-Humphhhh...
The simple sigh on his part made the other beasts tense and made them forget to breathe for fear of annoying their king of beasts!
"We were born as predators. To Kill or get killed. Devour our prey or be devoured by a predator stronger than us. This is the cause and reason for our existence! Gtyura's small army was only a small fragment of brick among the thousands of bricks that form a pyramid over which I reign supreme. So don't bother me just because only one brick has just broken among the thousands. Why would I care about the death of a single tree in this huge forest?" Its immensely large body of more than thirty meters long was like a Millenium rock that had not moved from its place for centuries.
His sharp claws were firmly sunk to the ground like dozens of celestial swords stabbing the ground and when he finished saying these words, he finally opened his bloodthirsty red eyes that made all the divine generals around him tremble with fear.
His voice was clear and placid while his eyes shone like a wise predator who knew the whole art of hunting.
"E-excuse me, my lord. I would go with this step to fulfill my duty as the tenth general by bringing you the head of the brazen who had dared to stand in our way." The Wyvern stuttering these words by turning around to leave as soon as possible.
After his disappearance, the black dragon again closed his predatory pupils and murmured for himself: "No matter their useless and insignificant efforts, they are created as prey and us as predators. The prey will never win against a predator. This is how this world is made." After these words, silence resounds again in the vicinity as if no soul were living in this place.
The other generals breathed sighs of relief when they saw the king of beasts plunge back into his sleep.

Alvine and Sylvia had just reached a second time, the entrance to the vampire kingdom. But Sylvia suddenly stopped in her steps looking behind her with a distant look while frowning.
"A problem?"
"The forest... it is afraid of something that lives in its depths." She says in a monotonous tone.
"I know, I myself felt the frightening energy that came from the same direction. Do you think this energy comes from a Leader?" Alvine in turn asked in a placid tone by crossing his arms.
"No, like us, Leaders are able to hide their presence by posing as weak and defenseless beings in the eyes of other mortals. This wave of breaking energy necessarily comes from an apostle." She affirmed by continuing her way to the small vampire kingdom. "They will have serious problems in the future if they do not prepare in time. Even if I necessarily doubt that they can win against the beasts, they will lose miserably by underestimating them." She continued.
"You are right. From what I have seen so far, only vampires really have the ability to measure themselves against magical beasts of divine rank. The queen of vampires herself is an intermediate divine mage, Noddra, and the second counselor are both low-level divine mages. As for Tugra and his wife, they also have a strength equal to low-level divine mages. But as for the king and queen of the Kelspies, they have the fighting force of an emperor mage. So if a simple commander is at the same rank as Tugra, I don't even dare to imagine the power of a general-grade magic beast; not to mention their king!" Alvine spoke thoughtfully using the information he had managed to collect so far to make his small comparison.
"Yes, I can say that without our intervention, they will have no chance against them! They will certainly be massacred." She supported Alvine's words with a nod.
But at the same time, two guards came to meet them. "Sir Dalvine, Lady Dylvia, our Queen, Liliana Bloodclaw would like to speak with you as soon as possible." Said the guard who held a long spear in his right hand.
"Her Highness has ordered us to escort you to her, to her neighborhoods!" Finished the other guard.
Alvine nodded and followed the two guards with Sylvia. He could instinctively guess Liliana's intentions by inviting them to her neighborhood when night has just fallen.
'What kind of expression will you show me when you learn that your enslavement spell has turned against you?' He says to Himself with a mischievous smile.
