SSS Ranked Reincarnation: Dark Dragon Legacy

Chapter 139: Brotherly fight

When everyone was inside the labyrinth, the competition had officially started. Silva's group consisted of Fay, Lia, Sage, Michael, Aaron, and Leah.

But before they could start moving, Oliver walked up to them.

"Can I join you guys? I feel there's no team here that I'd really fit in with," Oliver explained.

'So this is how you start your own approach, Oliver. Well, all good,' Silva thought.

"No problem at all, you can come with us," Silva said.

They all started moving through the first floor with ease. They could hear the sounds of battles around, but they were yet to get into any fight.

This competition was not exactly expected to finish in a day; it could take two days for some, and that was totally allowed.

After a while, their first opponent attacked them, but it was a pathetic little goblin. Silva was irked at the sight of the goblin running towards them. He crouched low, snatched the sword from its hand, and used the broad side to knock it out.

"I can't kill it; it feels wrong," Silva said and continued walking. He couldn't consider the goblin a threat, so he didn't want to dirty his hands with its blood.

So like that, the first floor of all twenty floors was useless, so they headed to the second and then to the third.

It was on the fourth floor that some stronger goblins began to attack, and they used minimal effort to take them out.

Silva could sense something with Oliver. Oliver was about to do something, and it was time to find out what.

As they swatted the small fries, Oliver pulled out a crystal and cracked it. The crystal released a frequency that caused the ground to tremble and collapse.

It caused a lot of dust to rise. In that short time with the dust rising, Oliver ran to Silva and pulled him down into the hole from the collapse.

This was Oliver's plan to make it seem like it was an accident and they had been separated.

When the dust cleared, everyone was there except Oliver.

"Seems Oliver fell into the hole. We should head to the next floor quickly to find him," Silva said.

"Why don't we just use the hole?" Michael asked.

"We can't be sure where he fell; there might be a trap there," Silva said, so they all rushed through the fourth floor.

As they left, Silva appeared where they had just been.

"So, one clone each. Oliver thinks he's with me, and Leah and Aaron think I'm still with them," Silva said.

He turned around and summoned Lily and Aris.

"Lily, Aris, I need you both to go and dig up all the dirt you can on Prince Alvin. Make sure you get a lot of dirt on him.

After that, kidnap the prince, Terron, Matilda, and the council president of the academy.

Keep them in the labyrinth till I come back. You can torture all of them, but ensure you don't break them," Silva said. It was the first part of the plan he discussed with them.

They nodded and vanished from the labyrinth.

"Now to go and watch if my friends will betray me," Silva said and started heading for the fifth floor.

---

On the fifth floor where Oliver and Silva's clone had fallen through, they got up from the ground and cleaned themselves.

"Sorry, Silva, I was trying to stop myself from falling and ended up pulling you into the hole," Oliver said with a fake sad face.

"You don't have to worry about that. Let's just get moving; we'll meet up with the others later," Silva said, and they started moving.

Oliver took the lead, and soon after, they got to a large door. Oliver immediately pointed at it.

"That may be a treasure room. We should check it out," Oliver said and ran to push the door open. Inside was a circular room, and sure enough, a treasure chest was inside.

Silva walked into the room and headed for the treasure chest. When he reached the chest and was about to touch it, Oliver spoke.

"You actually fell for it. I expected it to be a lot harder. Seems I gave you too much credit."

"What are you talking about, Oliver?" Silva asked.

"This room… it will be your end, the place where you'll rot and die for all eternity.

Did you really think you would walk free after coming into my life to ruin it?

You came to take everything away from me, and I refuse that. I refuse it, I refuse it! So you will die here, rot, become one with the dust, gone forever," Oliver yelled like a madman, then stepped outside, and the door of the room shut with Silva inside.

"I did it. I can't believe I did it," Oliver said in disbelief.

"Did what exactly?" Silva asked from behind Oliver.

Oliver turned around and jumped in fright after he saw Silva.

"How? How are you here?" Oliver asked, already breaking out in a cold sweat.

"You are pathetic, elder brother. Not only are you weak, you're also a coward who tried to capture me to get rid of me. How pathetic.

I guess it's like father, like son. Whenever you face slight problems, your first thought is to use underhanded methods to get rid of the problem," Silva said with a smile.

"Don't talk about my father like that!" Oliver yelled and charged at Silva.

"Who gave this dog the right to bark?" Silva responded and slapped Oliver across the face, sending him flying into a wall.

Silva walked to him and picked him up by the neck, lifting him off the ground.

"Oliver, you've made your bed; now you will die in it," Silva said and sent a punch into Oliver's guts. Oliver coughed up blood that spilled a little on Silva.

"You good-for-nothing piece of shit, how dare you get me dirty," Silva said. He poured dark mana into Oliver's brain, causing Oliver a world of pain he had never seen.

He screamed and cried until he passed out there.
