Chapter 500 Various Response
"Honestly, I am not a samaritan or pacifist person. Hell, even if someone I know is dying before me, I may just look at him without remorse. As long as it is not part of my family or someone I care about, I don\'t give a damn to anyone." said Angus casually.
"That\'s already enough for me." replied King Leon.
After chatting about some of their experiences these past few weeks, "So, did you also want me to handle the negotiation with Nirvas?" asked Angus.
Since they already help Eric and the others so much, Angus also thinks King Leon will also ask him to handle it.
"No. You, Jayna and Lia, will not participate in the negotiation with Nirvas. Even if Eric is going to lose the negotiation with Nirvas, you must not help him at all." said King Leon in a serious tone.
"Are you sure? If we lose, Nergal may get help from Nirvas." said Angus.
"Hmph… Did you think with everything that has happened, Nirvas will offer their help easily?" asked King Leon.
"Then, why do you keep insisting Eric go to Nirvas?" asked Angus.
"Because he is too damn stupid to understand the major force work. I want him to experience being powerless in front of real power. Sending you as a helper also to teach him this lesson." replied King Leon.
"I see… So, you are nurturing him to become a proper king, huh? That\'s a relief." said Angus.
Knowing the meaning behind Angus\' word, "Brat, don\'t think you are free already!! A true king can\'t be made in one day or a few years. I like to keep as many options as possible. Though it will be good if you show more effort." said King Leon.
"No way in hell. I would rather live out of nowhere with Jayna and Anna than babysit a whole kingdom." said Angus.
Then, they continue their talk for another few minutes before Angus and Jayna return to their room with Anna. Just as King Leon wants to return to take care of the kingdom, Extalia takes him to her room.
"Lia…" said King Leon in such a bold move.
Before he could speak further, the Duchess had already kissed him passionately. The kiss turns into a passionate love session without them wasting a single word. A love cry and passionate moan could be heard inside the Duchess\' room.
Fortunately, the room is covered with a strong isolated barrier. Otherwise, everyone in the hotel could hear their lustful cry. While Angus and the others were resting, the news about Anna\'s incident spread over the Firuman.
Most of the major forces decide to investigate further, while some ignore it and return to their usual life. At the same time, people inside other dimensions also notice Anna\'s strange presence, even for just a moment.
Knowing it happens in the Firuman dimension, most of them decide to ignore it except a few people. One of them is a humanoid Darkwing Bat monster overlord who lives inside a dark cave. The cave is magically dark that even the brightest light can\'t shine.
Feeling the familiar presence, the Darkwing Bat opened his eyes from his meditation and looked at his unhealed scorched hand with a complicated expression (a.n: injured by Anna).
Then, he looked at all the scratches on his body as he remembered a certain human boy. He received these scratch wounds from this human boy.
Despite his strong vitality and regeneration, the scratches on his body are still not healed even after a few years. On the contrary, the wound gets worse each time it passes by. They even become bigger wounds.
The humanoid Darkwing Bat also continuously receives an internal shock from the excess energy in these scratches. He had already lost count of how many times he needed to expel this unknown energy from his body.
Even after a few years, he can still not completely expel the unknown energy in this scratch wound.
"Kukuku… I\'m really looking forward to meeting you again, Anomaly Boy." said Darkwing Bat with a crazy smile before returning to his meditation.
On the other side of the Endless Battlefield, inside a humble wooden hut, lay a hidden pocket dimension. The dimension is covered with endless flowing lava and radiates the same temperature as a bright star.
Inside this pocket dimension, an old man without clothes hits a small bright ball with his bare hand. Every time he hits the ball, a sound of metal clashing with each other will be heard. It is as if a blacksmith is hammering a hot metal.
After a while, the old man stopped hitting the small bright ball. Then, the ball disappears according to the old man\'s intention. After that, he looked at his dimension exit for a moment.
"So, she finally unlocked it. What are you going to do now, Angus?" said Old Man Draught as he remembered a certain young man.
"Angus?? Hmm… What a peculiar name? If I am not wrong, I hear he is just a talented young man." said a young man with blue hair not far from Old Man Draught.
The blue-haired man is sitting casually on the molten lava while playing with a waterball in his hand. Hearing the familiar voice, Old Man Draught\'s face turned sour as if he had eaten the worst food in the world.
"Hoo… You dare to come here after what you did last time. At this point, I don\'t know if you are brave or utterly stupid." said Old Man Draught as he released a mysterious aura.
"Aww… Don\'t be so serious, Old Man. Besides, my real body is not here. We both know I am just a simple projection." said the blue-haired man playfully.
"What did you want?" asked Old Man Draught with a death glare.
"Don\'t be like that, I just want to visit you so you are not getting lonely." said the blue-haired man.
*GRRTT* *BOOOOM* In the blink of an eye, Old Man Draught\'s arm was covered in magma and hit the blue-haired man. The attack is very powerful that it shakes the whole dimension. Even some cracking spaces appeared in various locations in the air.
At the same time, the blue-haired man had already changed his position and stood beside Old Man Draught\'s magma fist while playing with the water ball in the air, completely ignoring the attack.
"Geezz… No wonder you are still single at this age, " said the blue-haired man, shaking his head in disappointment.
"Tch.. I don\'t want to hear that from you. Besides, you are fucking older than me!!" said Old Man Draught as he retracted his fist.
Draught knew he couldn\'t do anything to the blue-haired man even if he used all his power.
"Tch… Enough nonsense!! Why are you here? I am too busy to play with you." said Draught.
"Alright.. Alright… It will be bad if you get a stroke from too much anger." the blue-haired man playfully.
\'and whose fault is that?!\' grumbled Draught inwardly.
"Anyway, you must also feel that mysterious presence. Did you know anything about it?" asked the blue-haired man playfully.
"Hmph… Did you expect me to answer your question?" asked Draught as if the blue-haired man was an idiot.
However, the blue-haired man didn\'t answer and kept his playful smile while his blue hair covered his eyes. No one knows what the look behind his eyes is. Not even Draught, who has mystical discerning eyes that could discern almost anything.
Then, the blue-haired man realized something with a surprised expression.
"Ehh.. Are you seriously not going to answer me? I thought you were joking." said the blue-haired man in surprise.
"Joking!! Your entire family is joking!! Go away, I am busy! Just play with your little band of mischief." complained Draught as he walked towards the nearby lava pool.
"Hee… You are not funny. Fine, then how about making me an artifact?" asked the blue-haired man.
"In your dream!!" replied Draught.
"Ohh.. Come one, old man. I will even provide the material." said the blue-haired man playfully.
Draught didn\'t reply as he threw some material into the lava pool. Being ignored by Draught, the blue-haired man only shrugged his shoulders and wanted to get out of the place.
"I still don\'t understand." said Draught out of nowhere.
"Hmm?" replied the blue-haired man in question.
"Why did you hate them so much? If I am not wrong, you never state the real reason. Your desire to destroy them is too strong and never succumb even to time. What makes you have so much drive?" asked Draught as he kept throwing unknown material into the lava pool.
"Hmm… I don\'t know, either. To be more accurate, I don\'t remember it. But, I know I must do this." said the blue-haired man with a playful smile.
Draught was surprised at such an answer. He knows a lot of things and a few secrets of the world. He also knows a person like the blue-haired man will not forget such an important reason that drove him all these years.
After being silent for a moment, "Bring the material. I will see what I can do." said Draught after contemplating something.
"Ahhh.. Thank you, old man. I owe you one. You know this kind of thing is not my forte." said the blue-haired man in a happy tone.
"Old man… Old man… You are the one that is old!!" retorted Draught.
