Chapter 163: Chapter 162: The Unknown Presence
"It must be you... the biy whi gave Jarled a lot of trouble" Zearus looked towards Ulfur, he looked around, spextating the state of ruins the tower was in, "did you do all this?"
Ulfur frowned, "you must be Zearus"
"How did you find out? About everything...?" Zearus asked with a soft and cool voice.
Hagar got closer to Zearus and whispered to his ears. His gaze changed imdiately.
’It all makes sense... if he is the conduit of souls, then it is very much possible of all the souls there is a prophet who can see all, if it is Ballard who was very much helpful with his prophetic gifts in the thousand year war, then it all makes sense, or he could have another hero or legend who is a close witness of the thousand year war. It all makes sense hearing now that he is a conduit of souls, and by the looks of it, he is well versed with his ability. He’s the second one after Markus in the thousand year war, but even Markus could only manage three, I shouldn’t get my hopes too high, according to him; the price to pay was too heavy’ Zearus smiled.
He began to walk into their middle and spoke as he proceeded, "I especially find it very amusing yet disappointing that you all have the guts and strength to bicker amidst yourself even when you were told that a demon lord might be coming from the gate this ti around.
"It’s too late to still put on the act..." Ulfur cut in.
Hagar whispered into Zearus ears again, this ti he almost popped a vein in his forehead with the angry expression he gave Rosalia the fourth leader’s butler.
She replied the gaze, "what? You guys were incapable. They already discovered the whole thing so there was no significance anyways"
Zearus sighed and started again, "well since you all know, I guess that makes it easier. Today one thing is sure to happen, the demons will co out, we would have to worry about any other thing later."
"I believe with the power you guys have. Four of you taking on a demon lord should not be impossible. You guys can do it" Marie replied.
"What do you know? You all fought a single corrupted weakened demon lord’s lackey and look at the state it put you all in, the first leader gravely injured, the second ... injured as well, the third injured and dead. And the three of you of course were the active roles as the rest just supported. That was just a corrupted lackey...weakened. so you think four of us can take care of a demon lord alone?"
"We don’t plan to follow your orders anymore Zearus..." Marie spoke upfront.
"How bold..."
"For ... I don’t care what will happen to the world, this is the best I can do..." Marie’s left hand was still on her right side stopping the excessive bleeding from the hand she just lost.
"Then I will have Rosa turn you to a puppet just like she did with her leader"
"What?!"
"It is exactly as you heard." Zearus replied her.
Ulfur watched carefully and calculated, ’ right now out of 10 souls that I host, I can only effectively control six for about 20 minutes each and I can control the power of Liackan, for about two minutes. It would be dangerous to blindly go into battle with all of them. But if we wait till after defeating the demons which we should be able to... together. But, tomorrow... if what the lady is saying is correct then that ans by that ti they will actually beco gods and we might not be able to handle them.... this is complicated than what the soul of the prophet Ballard explained.’
The room atmosphere got very intense as the seven strong individual flexed their aura and awaited how carefully the next phase of the scenerio would reveal itself. But everything changed with the appearance of a large pillar of light and summoning circle on the floor.
The light slowly disappeared and revealed two individuals with one bending down, he seed to be the one who activated the summoning circle. The arrival of the two put an awkward phase on the atmosphere. This was surely not the next phase any of them was expecting, but the presence seed to put a lot of change to the atmosphere.
Marie’s face lit up with happiness, ’finally you are here’
Ulfur frowned and made a disgusted face afterwards, ’what the hell....’ he belatedly realized Rein’s change. ’...no wait, is he... the sa person...’
Hagar was the most surprised of all of them because he was still keeping tabs on the Rein in the cave and yet there was another Rein here. ’How co... is this one another clone, but what is with this other strange and different presence. I have never felt such presence all my life, it’s like he stands out just on his own’
Zearus frowned as he looked, he didn’t particularly had a specific thought about the new ergence but the strange and unknown feeling the individual gave off made him uncomfortable sohow.
While Neza wore an angry face, ’...sohow, I’m not surprised since it will be ending here today between you and I. The silent battle will end today. Today I will put you out of the way.’
Reinard wore a bright smile to lessen the tensed atmosphere that he brought with his arrival, he whispered to Ben, "wear a wide, smile to cheer everyone up"
Reinard right now, was clueless about alot of things.
????????!!
Reinard belatedly looked back as soone’s hand dropped to the floor.
"My lord, she was going to attack you from the back so I had to chip off her hand."
"...uh, did ..." Rein looked way surprised and shocked. "You just cut the hand of the second leader?!! You nastard how could you?!!"
Marie struggled with keeping herself sane and stable, she staggered as blood poured from the remaining half of her left hand.
’What the hell... what is this individual? Who the hell is he? He didn’t even look wand with just a flick of his hand he chopped off my hand.’
Everyone confird their thought. Perhaps the presence they were all referring to as strange and unfamiliar... yes it was that of Ben. Rein right now at his best could give off a faint aura of a deity which Ulfur was able to notice but right now Ben was directly blessed and authoritated by a deity. His presence was going to feel the whole room, a being that had never existed in history.
A draconic vampire. Rein had no idea what storm and disaster he was going to pour into the world.
"Uhm, I’m very sorry leader, forgive him. Co on. Heal right now!!" Rein commanded Ben.
He hesitated, "what if she tries to attack you again my lord"
"Just do it!"
"Okay my lord"
Ben stepped towards Marie and raised his hand. Imdiately green light glowed and a two hands were completed with the light forming a new hand, it felt so strange and real.
Marie raised her hand and looked at the, she folded her palms and thre punches. "Wow... I have only heard of powerful healers that can grow out limbs. I have never seen one... where did you co from?" She asked amazingly.
Ben ignored her and returned to Rein’s side.
’Ah...this bastard is making all the attention to be on ... but I never expected that He would receive that kind of gift just from becoming a new race because I nad him. So everyone I nad will get affected my the draconic race, an evolution.’ Rein was fond of diversion, it would take a lot to stop him from thinking a lot, even amidst the people he stood. He was lost in thought.
????????

The atmosphere was disturbed by the large disturbance in the water current. The tower was situated inside a large elastic transparently orb that water couldn’t enter, in the ocean, that the water disturbance was being obvious ans that the portal crack was beginning to be very obvious or it could have been as a result of Ulfur’s five star fire shot. But the orb was able to nullify magic, hence it could not be accected by any magic.
Zearus turned towards the window of the tower, " I guess whatever this is will continue after we defeat the demon lords..."
"...eh?" Rein was dumbfounded.
"My lord, it is as he said, I have never felt this ominous aura before, I am sure it is that of a demon, not just one... thousands master...but don’t worry my lord, I am confident that with this new power that your grace has granted , I can easily take care of a few thousand demon fries and besides I don’t think there is anyone here stronger than my lord’s martial art skills" Ben spoke while tightening his fist and a big smile on his face, his dark skin skin horn made him look like the demons he was going to fight but he had no idea that yet.
Rein turned to Marie as the others focus had changed and they were beginning to get prepared with one thing or the other.
Suddenly the atmosphere changed and Marie felt tensed like she was about to be judged.
"So... what was that about?" Rein asked.
"Uh... what?"
"I only played dumb to protect the atmosphere, why would you want to stab
when you were the one that told
to co here, even before Ben stopped you, I saw it coming..."
Marie suddenly began to sweat, ’what the hell... why am I feeling like this? The gaze his sending
is sending chills all over my body like... its scary, but it’s just the sa Reinard, the boy ...the strong boy... why is he so... I feel like a rat in front of a mountain tiger...’ she soon began to shiver, she tried to gather herself together but it was not of any help as the more Rein stared at her, the more she felt like she could pee herself.
anwhile Rein in his head, ’...ehhh...ehh I really need to get a hang of this authority thing... second union leader is looking like she could pee in her pants any mont ...I’m so f##ked"
