Primordial Expanse: I have the Strongest Talent!

Chapter 305 : It's just me!

But there was one thing that all four of these figures shared.

The level of strength they were giving off.

'Variant Class, C+ rank. All four of them.'

Right at this time though, the figure who looked most similar to a human opened his mouth and revealed a snake like tongue, speaking in a hoarse voice, with the odd hiss here and there.

"Human occupants of this ship! You have been surrounded! If you do not wish to die, surrender yourself and all of your possessions, and we might just let you live!"

The human like being spoke in the federal language, and the fact that he mentioned the human race as well…

These pirates clearly knew a thing or two about the human race.

'How has word about our existence spread so quickly across space?'

Alex grew more and more concerned for the human race as more time passed from their protection period's end.

But when he heard the human like figure's words, Alex looked awkwardly at them through the window.

'Do they not know it's just me in here?'

Not to mention he was actually being robbed, in plain sight no less.

He was literally just a few minutes' travel away from the Federal military's territory, yet these pirates so brazenly decided to rob him!?

How bold!

Alex thought about it for a moment.

The energy beams from before could easily destroy his ship's barrier now that he was locked in place by their tractor beams.

He couldn't let that happen!

And he was surrounded, so it wasn't like he had much choice in what to do either.

Since that was the case, Alex decided to 'comply' with their wishes.

Alex smiled.

"Let's see what happens."

At this time, outside the ship, the human like being noticed that there was no movement from the ship so far, and started to become annoyed.

"Stupid humans! If you don't exit your ship now, we'll blow it all to bits!"

Those humans inside this ship dared to make the Violet Pirates wait?

With how close they were to the human territory, they were anxious to stick around for long.

And with how lax the humans inside this ship seemed, they had already made the decision to kill them after they had taken everything.

Spare their lives?

Hah, as if they would do that when they made them wait so long!

(Only 30 seconds had passed…)

Behind him, the other three pirates in different shapes and sizes all looked at each other, bloodthirst clearly in their eyes.

They all started menacingly laughing with each other, deciding how to share the valuables of the humans inside, though they were especially interested in the ship itself.

Although it couldn't compare to the highest class ships of their own races, before they were exiled from their own races that was, it was still a very good ship on the universal scale of things.

The human race had done well to develop this thing, considering their lack of trade with any other races yet.

While the universe was essentially an untamed jungle, with different races killing each other wantonly over their soul cores, that didn't mean that trade didn't take place.

The four alien figures had clearly disregarded the occupants of the ship though.

They treated it as if they had already won over them, having confidence in their own strength.

Right on cue, the doors of King opened as Alex slowly flew out.

He turned to look at the four space pirates who were still laughing with disdain.

"It took you long enough, human! Now, tell the rest of your crew to exit, or we'll make an example out of you!"

One of the other four beings, one covered in hair, resembling a beast more than an actual sentient being, spoke this time.

"It's just me on this ship."

Alex spoke, his cold tone not hidden at all.

The four beings seemed a little disappointed at this revelation, but they just took it as it was.

Less humans meant less loot, after all.

They would find out whether his words were true or not when they entered his ship themselves, after they had killed him of course.

After seeing Alex appear, their gazes all locked onto him.

His clothes didn't reveal any sort of extravagant wealth, like they were hoping, but the fact that he was piloting such a decent ship still gave them hope.

"All your belongings are ours now! Strip yourself, and turn over any spatial storage items you have on you. If you don't comply, we'll simply pry them from your body after we kill you!"

If Alex dared to rebel against them, anything valuable he might have on him might be damaged in the fight.

They were here for whatever valuable goods he had, so they hoped it didn't come to such a thing.

But thankfully for them, it seemed Alex wouldn't go to such lengths.

"Come and take them from me! I'm afraid a weak D tier like me can't traverse space as well as you C tiers!"

Alex presented himself with open arms to the four pirates, showing that he wasn't going to try anything drastic.

He even started shaking, showing how scared he was.

"Hahah, you're pretty smart for a human!"

The beast like alien spoke, and started floating over to Alex.

When he neared within just a couple metres, Alex spoke.

"I have a spatial storage earring. I don't want to die!"

He shook even more as the alien approached, and told him where his spatial storage was.

The beast like alien just smirked, knowing what they were going to do to this human regardless of whether he cooperated or not.

He came close enough to Alex that he could see the deep fatigue on his face, barely half a metre separating the two of them, as the beast like being stretched out his arm to take the earring off of Alex's ear.

Shing!

But right as he did so, he was left a little confused.

'I could have sworn I just saw him move?'

He looked at Alex, then realised that he was no longer shaking, and had a cold look on his face.

He looked down, only to see a sword buried deep in his chest, slicing his heart to bits.

'He was putting on an act?'

His thoughts didn't last much longer, as the life force inside him dissipated quickly.
