Chapter 105 The Won Knights
" Time to end this fight ". Max said as he looked at the struggling Night.
" Fireblast! ".
Max used the most opportune moment as Night was trying to fight one of the Skeletal warriors to blast him with a Fireblast.
-2300!
The FireBlast reduced night's HP to a dangerous red level, and although it also damaged some of the skeletal warriors who were hitting Night, with the next two skeletal arrows hitting their mark, It was Night Night time for Night.
-249
-170
Nights HP hit 0, as the match was over with Max standing tall.
The audience went wild when Night was eventually defeated, as Max became the new hero in town.
The referee swooped in as soon as the match ended and raised Max's arm in glory.
" The winner of this match, by a complete death kill ..... RAVAN! ".
*Hound! Hound! Hound! Hound!*
The hound chants erupted and there were some wolf howls mixed in between as Max walked down the stage in pride.
Just before he walked out, he turned once to wave to his sister in law Naomi, to thank her for being here to support him today.
With this victory Max had solidified his dream of entering the round of 16, and hence secured his spot in the upcoming dungeon run!
**********
( Meanwhile Rudra )
Rudra had to leave Max's academy in a hurry as he was summoned by none other than Augustus Won Knight the tier 8 patriarch of the Won Knight clan in an emergency family meeting.
It was the first time that Rudra was going to the Won Knight territory and he was shocked at the honour and respect he got once he reached there, as every single clan member worshipped him as if he were the second coming of Jesus Christ himself.
' haha, sometimes I forget that I'm now a god '. Rudra chuckled as he thought to himself as he blessed a few kids who seemed to seek his blessings in becoming a warrior like him in the future.
The won knight territory was extremely prosperous with their home planet being 7 times the size of earth.
The capital city was almost as big as Europe and housed over 220 million inhabitants and the total population of the planet being over 27 billion.
However, when Rudra sent his senses across the world he realised that despite the large population there were only two gods on the entire planet.
Rudra was escorted into a huge castle made of pure sapphires as his dear sister Patricia Won Knight greeted him at the palace gates.
" Shakuni.... ". She said with a smile
" Big sister ". Rudra replied with a bigger one
The Won Knight Clan name was not inherited at birth, but rather Augustus Won Knight devised a system thousands of years ago, for choosing the next generation of Won Knight clansmen.
Each previous generation of Won Knight Clansmen, could take in one junior brother or sister and groom them personally.
Upon passing the tier 4 trial, if they fulfilled the hidden criterias then they were awarded the family name.
Patricia had named Rudra as her successor and Rudra had not yet passed the name onto anyone else.
This system meant that the won knight clan members were not related by blood, but still shared a close familiar bond.
But despite having no blood relations, all Won knights shared the same blue eyes, because it was a secret family technique called ' Eyes Of Truth ' that was devised by Augustus Won Knight himself.
It was this technique that made the won knight family the powerhouse they were today, and the reason that Augustus Won Knight managed to reach the heights of tier 8 in his lifetime.
" Sweet palace ". Rudra said as Patricia walked past Rhodium crystal scriptures as if it were glass.
" If you want the throne, I'm more than happy to give it to you, my tier 7 brother " Patricia said with a smile as Rudra missed a step and almost stumbled to the floor.
" How did you find out? " Rudra asked, shocked as Patricia smiled and said " At tier 6, my senses are not strong enough to cover the entire planet, but I felt yours envelope it whole ".
Rudra bowed respectfully in front of his big sister. His tier 7 ascension was the closest guarded secret of Earth.
Rudra had not even told Naomi that he had managed to ascend not more than a week ago, as he suppressed all signs of his power up to not let any opposing force get a whiff of his true potential.
" Don't worry, your secret is safe with me and the patriarch brother ". Patricia said as Rudra nodded solemnly, if there was one place in the universe that he could not act impudently, it was this planet.
Rudra owed a lot of his success to the unconditional backing of the Won Knight family, as even today it was not his own name that deterred troublesome forces from messing with earth, as much as the Won Knight behind his name did.
Eventually Rudra and Patricia walked into an only red room made of rubies in the entire emerald palace, as Rudra saw a vibrant old man sitting in front of a chess table all by himself.
" Agh, Shakuni won knight, my boy, come have a game with me". Augustus said with an energetic tone behind his voice
" Greetings Patriarch". Rudra replied, as he took his position across from the patriarch.
Within the next 3 seconds, the two made a total of 80 moves which resulted in Rudra eventually winning.
" Checkmate ". Rudra said as Augustus Won Knight began clapping, amused at how Rudra had lured his bishop in only for it to be a decoy to take his queen.
" Cheeky ". Augustus said as he reset the table as he began pondering about the previous game and where he made a mistake.
" You called Patriarch? " Patricia asked, her voice containing a trace of concern as not only had Augustus recalled Rudra on a forceful command, but also asked Patricia to prepare the troops for war.
Currently, the purchase of weapons and production of potions and supplies was at an all time high inside the territory.
Mines were working past capacity, and Blacksmiths were being recruited by the thousands.
Augustus sighed, he seemed to have aged 5 years as he tried to answer Patricia's question as he said " The reason why I called you here my children is because .... ".
