Chapter 215 215:A Gift To Remember

"What is this?"

"Master....What are you going to do now?"

The guards that came with Seph swallowed their saliva unable to muster words to describe

Seph's heart raced as he led his small array of guards through the dense forest. From the city, he hurried his way as fast as possible so that he wouldn't miss the rat.

The guards had received urgent reports of an impending attack on their secret base, and since every moment was precious, they raced against time to reach their destination.

But they burst through the final line of trees and traps, Seph's along with everyone's eyes widened in disbelief...

Where there was a huge base of the warehouse and the place where a huge forest should have been before, now was nothing but an empty expanse of barren land stretching out before them. The once thriving base, nestled within the heart of the forest, had vanished without a trace.

Horror washed over Seph and his guards as they surveyed the desolate landscape before them. The buildings, the defenses, and even the trees that had once surrounded their base were gone as if they had never existed in the first place. The ground beneath their feet was rugged and scarred as if some great force had ripped the piece of land.

"Sir, what should we do now?"

"How can it vanish?"

"Everyone go and scan the surroundings and see if you can discover anything," Seph ordered the men.

Seph closed his lips trying to stop himself from cursing.

'Haaaa!Not only has this become useless but I am gonna be snitched on by the girls for wasting time here when the wedding date is already on the eve.'

Seph's mind raced with questions and mystery as he tried to comprehend what had happened.

Had any of Greymore's enemies launched a devastating assault, wiping out their base in one fell swoop? But there aren't any signs of attack?

"It doesn't look as if it had been attacked with a missile. There isn't any sign of fire or destruction."

"System!"

[Host, according to my analysis. This whole place had been shifted somewhere.]

'Shifted somewhere.....'

'Like a dimensional place.'

[Yes, host.]

'You said the shadow realm is like a dimensional place and the owner can wield it but Avelin still didn't manage to control it due to not hitting the willpower.'

[Yes…]

Seph held his chin falling into deep contemplation.

"So who is this? Leon again?"

Seph felt nauseous with the name previously but now he smiled thinking about this.

What could be more fun than hunting someone who thinks of himself as a predator?

Someone's who would be cornered and forced to throw his treasure at him

"That guy wasn't going to give me fate points before and the system isn't able to find him which lets him grow but it seems now I would get a lot of things from him. It seems my initial decision to let him grow was correct. Only when a cattle grows to its full potential, its harvest would be quite bountiful."

"Sadly, the loss of this base was quite heavy but...."

It was wrong to say that he hadn't expected this. Though the disappearance of the base wasn't something he expected still.

"He might have been surprised when he entered the inner compartment," Seph muttered with a hideous smile.

.......

After Leon and Sophia wrestled their love, both of them stopped unwillingly. If not for the place, they might have already done the deed today.

Nudging back his head Leon breathed heavily trying to contain his surge of emotion. He felt his groins ignited by fire and his brother being pressed upon wanting to be free but he decided to control the fire.

'Calm down…A man shouldn't think with the lower part.'

Surprisingly, he felt quite relaxed and his heavy heart felt quite light.

With a smile, Leon ran his finger across Sophia's plump cherry lips making her face heat up.

"Your mouth tastes like orange," Leon muttered, licking his lips and making Sophia's face heat up.

"Do you want to eat the orange now?"Sophia asked seductively but then shook her head with a somber expression as her eyes fell on the vicinity.

"Sorry, I was just too happy to see you again."

"Ennnn!"

"Are they alive?"Leon then assumed a serious stance and looked around.

" This place isn't the main place. All who are here either died or in a coma with most of their organs being damaged. The one up that place is the main thing."Sophia gave a brief and as per what they were researching, she didn't know anything about that.

"Hmmm! Let's go. I want to know what this guy is doing so can you walk now?"

"Yes, I am a lot better now. My blood has already eradicated the toxin."Sophia answered and then looking at Leon, she asked anxiously

"Is it alright for us to linger here? Seph might be coming for us?"

"Don't worry, I have pulled out this place from the world and fitted it in a separate place," Leon answered nonchalantly but this caused Sophia's eyes to widen with disbelief.

"What? How...did you do that?"

Leon gave a bemused smile seeing Sophia's reaction and caressed her hair.

"We will talk about that later."

Leon had cleaned people up to the second floor and as they started to climb up, Leon found some presence lurking around.

It was the guards who at the least had some IQ to not rush to their death and stay hidden here hoping to stay alive.

Alas...

"I will take care of them, "Sophia shouted and sprang forward leaving behind a gust.

And at the next instant, screams of bewilderment started to echo the place.

"AHHHHH!"

"KHHAAAAAA!"

"I am burning...I am burning...."

"Spare me..."

"AHHHHHHHH! I am burning."

The guards started to light up one after another and burnt to dust. And their souls after lingering for a few moments dispersed.

"She is a bit too hot and fierce to handle..."

Leon hadn't even finished his sentence when he felt a fiery glare from somewhere making him choke.

"But I like it."

"HMMM!"Sophia nodded in satisfaction and moved to deal with the guards.

"Huhh!"

"What's happening?"

A few white lab coats crazy maniac evil scientist came out of the room on the third floor only to be greeted by a ball of fire blasting their body open.

Leon ignored them and walked to the door.

The door was surprisingly thin but the metal gave him an odd feeling.

Leon pulled out his sword and slashed.

BOOOOOOOM!

A crackling thunder boom echoed and much to his surprise. Despite the attack, the door remained firm.

"This metal...It's Argentium. Even the Martial Emperor would find it difficult to break."Sophia muttered in disbelief."You can't break it, Leon, give up. It is impossible…"

"There is nothing impossible in my dictionary."

Leon muttered and ignoring her, slashed a few more times but despite his robust attack, the huge door stood with a single scratch.

Leon just stood there blinking his eyes and saw Sophia sneer.

With a dry cough, Leon put down his sword.

"You were right about that.'

'Fuck…My chance to show off went away again.'

"Where did this guy find the door?"Sophia asked with a curious expression.

"Who knows?"Leon shrugged his shoulders and saw a device for fingerprint and password.

"Finally! I can use my hacking skills."

Leon leaped in joy. He just needs to scan the surroundings for traces of fingerprints and draw out the pattern.

And he always carries all these tools as who knows when it will be required.

This was cumbersome but not for him who had many hands.

Leon was about to order his soldier to bring out the machines when a screeching noise echoed.

"HEHEHHEHEHEH!"

"So you managed to reach out here despite dozens of Martial King guards."

Both Leon and Sophia's hair stood up in fright when they heard the voice.
