59 Mind Gas
Lucas was sitting on his throne looking down at his first general who was kneeling in front of him with his battered body.
" So you killed them? " Lucas asks without showing any emotion on his face.
" Yes, my lord. It was a tough battle. " the general replies with a solemn expression on his face.
" Great, now we can start our plan to deal with the remaining beasts. You will be rewarded after our last war. " Lucas said as he stood up from his throne.
He tooks out a dark red colour ball from a closet and stares at it like so kind of treasure.
" What is it, my lord? " the general asked puzzled by the appearance of the strange ball.
" It's my Trump card, a ball of poison. The poison inside it is so potent that it could corrode our whole planet itself in just a matter of minutes. " Lucas replies as he planned to use it in case sothing unexpected happens.
" Prepare all the remaining warriors, I'm going to lead them personally. " Lucas orders before walking out of the room.
" Yes, my lord. " the general bows.
' I just hope I made the right choice. ' he thought.

[ Cunning Ego activated ]
A ssage popped into Jayden's mind as he stepped outside of the building before talking to the general, it was his cunning ego who made the deal with the general.
" What was that all about? And why did you let him leave? " Anna asks Jayden.
" It's simple really. "Jayden said before explaining.
" It's called the framing bias, a manipulative technique. I gave him two options and made him think that he only have two options. And out of which he could only choose one option, while the other option will only lead to negative results.
Knowing about his siblings helped a little, but even if I wasn't able to read his mind, the result would've been the sa. So, the mont he set foot here, he was bound to betray Lucas, as he only had one option from the beginning. "
" As for why I did it, there are three reasons, first, as Lucas trusts his first general the most he would actually believe his words, and will let his guard down a little.
Second, through him, I would be able to observe Lucas's every move.
Third, I placed so arrays on the general, which will activate when I need them to, and will instantly change the tides if I am on the losing end. " Jayden explained everything to Anna.
" What? Did you plan all that? When had you placed arrays on him? And where did you learn to do such things? " Anna asked surprised by the scheming of Jayden's cunning ego.
" Yeah, it's just the start. And I learned it from... 'Ani'. " Jayden replied while pausing a little in between.
" Oh really, which one? " Anna asked knowing that he was lying.
Jayden closes his eyes for a few monts, pondering about sothing in his mind, then after a minute he asks: " By the way, Anna how do you know so many things about , that happened even before I got the orb? "
" Um... I saw them through your mories," she replies.
After listening to her, Jayden questions her: " Do you know about Sydney? "
" No? Why are you asking about her suddenly? " Anna asks doubtfully.
" She has been a part of my life for many years, so that ans you can't access my mories. And all the things you have said so far indicate that you only know things happened around a year before I got the orb.
And from what I heard from the werewolves, from whom I had stolen the orb, they too found it around a year before their trade. So that ans you have been watching ever since the orb was discovered, that ans even if I haven't stolen the orb, it would have co to one way or another. But why ? " Jayden concluded.
Anna listened to him with her jaw dropped to the ground, ' Is he really Jayden? ' she thought and remained silent, trying not to provide any more details.
" Well, seems like I'll have to wait for my answers. " Jayden said and started to observe Lucas through the array, he had implanted on the general's body, which worked like a hidden cara.
" So, he's going to attack the beast race today. Well, that made it easier for to finally start the plan. " Jayden spokes to himself.
" Alpha, Beta, Gamma. " Three shadows flew out from under Jayden's feet as he calls their nas.
" Stay here, and protect them. If you find yourself in a difficult situation, just go inside the building and activate the transportation array. No matter what, don't move away from your position, even if you saw get beaten. " Jayden speaks in a serious tone.
" " Yes, master. " " Beta and Gamma bows their head.
Jayden turns to look at Alpha, demanding reasons for not replying.
" Master, I don't doubt your abilities, but please let accompany you, they can perfectly handle the situation here and I doubt anyone could even go inside after all the arrays you have placed. " Beta, Gamma and even Jayden looks at Alpha in surprise, 'he could talk so much in a single ti.' everyone thought as Alpha rarely spokes.
" You don't need to worry, unless Lucas has the ability to perform miracles, he will definitely be killed by , today. " Jayden reassured Alpha and turns to run in Lucas's direction.
He activated the infernal step and turns into a dark ray of light, and then he ran, he asks: " Anna, what do you think about that ball? "
" That poison is strong enough to kill you in less than two seconds. Every world, even the weaker ones have at least one highest quality treasure, which the world raises from the ti the world started to exist. So the age of that treasure will be the sa as its world, like the life Potion you have, it's was that world's treasure and that poison ball is this world's treasure. " Anna explains slowly to Jayden.
" Do you think the life potion could act as the antidote for that poison? " Jayden wonders.
" I'm not sure, there is a chance but I would advise you not to take any risk. " Anna warns Jayden.
" Hmm. " he nodded and continued to hear towards the zombie king.
Soon enough Jayden stood in front of Lucas's castle, as he waited for him to co out.
After waiting for more than an hour, Lucas along with many other zombies steps out of his castle and just after taking a few steps he too notices Jayden.
" Who is that sonovabich? " Lucas asks looking at his general who stared at Jayden in confusion.
" I... I'm not sure. " the general replies after a mont, pretending to be oblivious of the situation.
" You know, I can also speak. " Jayden speaks to Lucas with a smug look.
" Oh, you look like us, but you're not us. What an interesting creature. " Lucas stares at Jayden from top to bottom.
After a mont, he spoke again: " Follow to my room, if you could satisfy my curiosity I'll give you sothing big as a reward. "
" Thanks, but I'll have to refuse your offer. I've been taught to not follow strangers and I'm not into n, especially soone who bites. " Jayden replies with a small smile.
" Haha, don't be scared little one, I won't do anything suspicious, and I promise it won't be much painful. I would just need to put my big tool into your body and tear so of your flesh, just for research purposes I promise. " Lucas spokes with the corner of his lips rising, his eyes narrowing on Jayden.
Jayden felt a little shiver looking at Lucas's face, then he speaks: " Although your words sound disgusting, but I would also like to shove my long sword in you. " Jayden said as he turned Andrea into a sword, before continuing: " But I hope it isn't immoral to do such a thing with a corpse. "
" You bastard... " Lucas scowls as Jayen Hit the spot where it hurts the most, as he hated being called by such words.
' His intelligence is quite high if he could use sentences with double aning. ' Jayden thoughts to himself.
" Even if you refuse I'm going to cut you into pieces with my knife and use your body parts for my research. " Lucas said as a blood thirsty look appears on his face.
" We'll have to see, who pierces whom with their tool. " Jayden said while looking at Lucas's level.
' 13,543 huh, it's a little over the expectations, but it shouldn't be too much of a problem. ' Jayden thought making minute changes to his plan.
" You haven't answered my question yet, who are you? And why are you here? " Lucas repeats himself.
" I'm Jayden and a part of the group whose mbers were killed by your general. " Jayden speaks while showing a pained expression.
" How could you have left one alive?" Lucas asks his general.
" I... that... " The first general didn't know how to answer him and feared he would punish his siblings for it.
" Actually I was away when he appeared there or I wouldn't have let him kill them. " Jayden cos to the general's rescue.
" And then you decided to co here for revenge? " Lucas asks him.
" Yeah, and I'm going to kill each and every single one of you. " Jayden replies with a look of sadness, while constantly forming invisible magical symbols from his hands, forming an array.
