Chapter 346: Vengeance - Part 1 |
Dominic witnessed everything with his eyeballs how all people and the weird things in the sky were killed.
He did not do anything but watch it unfolded before him. Especially the unknown brawny man, he observed him intensely.
Based on his observation, the brawny man was called Uncle Wang. At least, that was how Bai Xin Yue called him out.
Dominic noticed particular weird footsteps, fast, swift, and weird. It was the impression Uncle Wang gave off. Aside from the footsteps, Uncle Wang's fist was also frightening.
'Bai Xin Yue called him Uncle Wang, does it mean he is Xing Heero's uncle?'
Dominic was still trying to find out the brawny man's identity. He tried to recall all information about Heero in his mind. But then, his thoughts were interrupted by the noise from the entrance of the Sun Dome.
Tak! Tak! Tak!
It was the noise of a wooden staff colliding against the ground. He looked toward the noise.
Dominic saw an old man walking with the help of a wooden staff in his right hand. The old man's steps were a little off as if there was an issue with his right foot.
Wearing black cloak and straw hat, the old man made his way into the arena.
Then, Dominic saw another one behind the old man. This one was not a human but the same thing as Wyernthrope. The difference between the two was this one looked more intimidating and black-scaled as well, also bigger.
Even though Wyernthrope and this one looked similar, he could tell this one was not Wyernthrope.
"A dragon, is that a dragon?" Dominic blurted out.
"Half right, but he is only half-dragon," Heero replied to the shocked Dominic.
"That thing is Draconian, the only half-dragon creature recorded in history! It was said that his original heart was replaced by Dragon's heart," Heero added a little explanation, not only for Dominic but Butcher Wang and his wives as well.
When Dragon was mentioned, Dominic's heart was tightened a little bit.
"Hoho... Lord Reaper and Lord Nightmares come for me, I am a bit flattered," Heero started to strike a conversation.
However, the old man ignored Heero as he kept walking toward the arena.
Tak! Tak! Tak!
As he walked closer, shadow spread out from his feet, swallowing the men in black's dead bodies. Like a black hole, the shadow swallowed all dead bodies on the old man's path.
Gulp!
Dominic swallowed mouthful saliva. He never saw such an ability before. What if that shadow tried to swallow him, could he resist?
Even Dominic did not have the confidence to say yes to that question. Even though the old man did not have an expression on his face, the old man gave him off scary feelings.
"Hah… It seems it would be hard to get the information from you two…" Heero muttered in a low voice, "I have to find another way to find that B*stard Horas!"
The old man and the Draconian stopped their footsteps. But it was only for a moment before the two continued walking again.
When they arrived at the edge of the arena, both floated and landed at the edge of the arena.
"You have two choices! First, you bow your head and serve God Horas. You and your family will be spared! Second, Die!"
The old man had a chilly voice as he pointed his finger toward Heero. However, the Draconian seemed to not agree with the old man.
"Don't be wishy-washy, old man! Let's kill him and get the work done!" Draco said in an irritating tone.
Heero's beforehand words seem to offend the Draconian.
The old man however did not respond to the Draconian. He maintained his silence, waiting for Heero's answer.
The old man had his plan regarding Heero. He wanted to use Heero's influence for their benefit. But of course, he was not expected to surrender willingly like this. This was just a show to Heero that he was willing to receive Heero as their comrade.
"You don't expect me to join your side with just those words, right?" Heero looked at the old man funnily.
"However, I agree with the big guy's opinion! Let's not waste our time and tell me where is your cowardly God hiding?"
"It's okay, I will show you that your resistance is futile! By that time, you will surrender by your own will!" The old man responded in a flat tone.
At the same time, he raised his wooden staff and tapped the arena.
Tak!
The moment the tip of the wooden staff touched the ground, shadow spread out. The shadow covered the whole dome and started to spread toward the core region.
Dominic took three steps back in shock. He tried to avoid the shadow but it was in vain as he could not avoid. However, the shadow did not swallow his body. He could still feel his feet touch the ground, meaning he was still on top of the arena. It was just that he lost his sight, it was complete darkness. It was as if he was getting sucked into a void.
"Don't panic! Stay still and don't run, I have your back!" Heero's voice rang. Of course, the instruction was not directed to Dominic only but Butcher Wang and his wives as well.
Shing!
Right after Heero finished his words, a blade made of Ki slashed downward from the sky. The blade perfectly cut the shadow just like a sword cut a piece of paper.
The shadow split into two, after that, the shadow dispersed. The whole dome returned to normal while everyone was still on their original spot.
Boom! Boom!
Then two figures landed next to Heero, Musashi Hirata and Sun Zhou Yi arrived in such a dramatic fashion.
"We arrived at the right time, Hirata!" Sun Zhou Yi spoke up as he looked at the old man and the Draconian.
Since SES had gathered all information regarding Reaper, Nightmare, and Shadow Bane. Sun Zhou Yi recognized the two figures in front of him.
"Mnnn," Musashi Hirata nodded his head in response.
"Why did you come here? What about the outer region?" Butcher Wang could not help but question these two.
These two were supposed to be taking care of the outer region and inner region. They should not be here.
"Don't worry, we have taken care of the key figures. We can leave the rest to SES and Phoenix Order Knight, they are capable of that," Musashi Hirata reported the situation.
"Oh, Ryan White also went on a rampage. Everything is fine, Uncle Wang," Added Sun Zhou Yi to assure Butcher Wang.
Then, Musashi Hirata turned toward Heero, "Master! Why don't you go to the spectator seats and leave this to your disciples! We five could handle these two, I guess!"
Yes, Sun Zhou Yi and Musashi Hirata came for the old man and the Draconian. They found their opponents were too weak hence they came here.
At the same time, the old man and the Draconian also looked up to the sky. Two barriers disappeared, it was not a good sign.
"What happened?" Draco asked the old man in a whisper.
"I don't know but it seems our force is getting ambushed. They are most likely in danger right now!" The old man replied. His tone was always flat despite knowing his side was in danger.
"What those tiny dwarves are doing? They are so useless!" Draco cursed his ally, the corrupted dwarves.
"Let's not care about them! We kill these people and save them later!"
Meanwhile,
Heero did not immediately answer his disciples. He looked up to the sky, there was only one barrier left. The last barrier originated from the outermost region.
After that, he looked at Bai Xin Yue and Kang Seo-Yeon. The two women nodded their heads, indicating they wanted to fight as well.
"What about those things? Who's going to take care of those!" Heero pointed at the top of the dome.
Everyone looked up and saw ten creatures floating in the sky. It was a creature without a form, they were made of Dark Ki hence these creatures were formless like gas.
But it had a similar shape to a human and had two red eyes on top. There were ten of them and these creatures were called Void. It was the worst nightmare for humans.
There was only one way to defeat these creatures, the force of Nebraska Temple. In the past, only the force of Nebraska Temple could neutralize these creatures.
Void could not be hit by a physical weapon, a normal Ki also did not affect it in any way. Only an element that could counter these creatures, the Light Element.
The old man and Draco heard Heero's words. They looked up once again, and the old man smiled when he saw the ten creatures.
"Huhu, he has arrived…" For the first time, the old man let out a small laugh.
"Yo! I am here and I heard your foul words, half-dragon!" Out of sudden, a dark-skinned dwarf appeared next to the old man.
The dwarf was the leader of the Shadow Bane, Bane. Bane was a title given to every leader of the Shadow Bane.
Despite his small size body, he glared at Draco with no fear.
To everyone's surprise, Draco looked away from Bane.
"You managed to create Void!" The old man said in a surprised tone.
"Of course, I am! But let's finish our business here, I have found a way to contact The Lord!"
