128 Meeting The Races
His eyes told me he didn’t totally believe in my words. I just kept my silence while the entire world around me was bombarded with the falling burning rocks.
Even a few fell over my chariot, but my shield defended well against it.
As for my warriors, I already summoned them. I also sent a message to the illusionist to retreat.
Hopefully most of them would survive this wave and come here to safety.
“Alright,” he took out a contract before adding, “but if you didn’t show any sincerity, the first contract will be cancelled.”
I nodded while watching him filling the content of the contract himself. It seemed he was so furious about this deal, far more than the first one.
In fact I expected the opposite. I thought he wouldn’t agree to this easily on the first contract, and would smoothly sign the second one.
In the end he was going to sign both of them no matter how he reacted or felt.
“Here,” he handed the contract over and I scanned its content. “You didn’t specify the time for the forces to leave the city,” I looked at him before adding, “I’ve added a time limit of one hour to evacuate the city. Any second later than that means you will pay ten percent from your inventory.”
“This…” his face changed again but I already added this point and signed my name.
“Just sign it,” I motioned with my head towards the world outside, “or else we won’t have a city to discuss about!”
*Boom!* *Boom!* *Boom!*
“Or you won’t have your forces to your side again,” I added when I saw the look of hesitation festering in his face.
“Alright,” he finally conceded, “I hope this is for the best. If you tried to do something…”
“Don’t worry about that,” I said in a cheerful tone that didn’t suit the world of death all around, “the contract binds me to show all my strength during that fight.”
The contract turned into specks of golden light before vanishing. By this I already fulfilled what I wanted, and I was very excited about that.
Of course I still had a hidden move that I’d use at the right time.
“What now?” he asked, “will you keep running like that?”
During all this time, my chariot never stopped running. “Go down there and gather up the elites of each race,” I said, “we’ll start moving once you are ready.”
“Ok,” he moved towards the stairs before he suddenly paused. “What’s the name of that parasite inside that monster?” he asked without turning his face to me.
“I’ll send you a friend request now,” I searched for his name and race, but I found tons of such names in a big list. “It seems your name is common in your race.”
“I’ll add you then,” he then sent me a friend request by returning to me and putting his strong arm over my shoulder.
Selvator race Fang added you as a friend
Do you agree?
“I do,” once we became friends, I simply opened a chat window and sent one word to him.
Curasee
“…!!!”
He was walking towards the stairs before he stumbled and even fell to the lower floor out of his surprise. I hurried to the stairs and all I could see was his body trying to stand up while his face was ashen white.
You know about them? I sent into the chat and the response I got was a glaring look from his eyes.
Are you sure? he only sent that while continuing to descend without turning back.
Of course I’m
F*ck! Those bastards killed my parents!
The answer he sent was only this message, but it was enough to tell me everything about how he was feeling right now.
Wow! That was impressive! Much cooler than I even thought!!
He had a death feud with them, and that meant he also had a death feud with the ones who sent them here.
Don’t tell anyone about that I sent a message, trying to add more fuel to the fire, Don’t even mutter their name to yourself. The angels after all are on their side and they are present everywhere and anytime as y’know!
I didn’t get an answer from him, but I was sure my message added a real taste of hatred towards those angels. If I gained his support by a contract before this, then now I gained his trust.
Hahaha! You damn angels! See? I just snatched one of your best fighters just under your noses! Hahaha!
I was happy, really happy. Those angels would vomit blood now or cry at a corner. I gained that Selvator to my side, not only for this contract deal, but I’d make sure he would be my long life friend.
And now… It was time to kill that bastard!
Of course I knew of a way to kill it. But If I did it alone, I’d have to face the full retaliation of it for minutes.
I waited then for the races to gather. As for my illusionists, those cowards seemed to be running all along my chariot.
So when the attack began, and even before I sent the message to them, they came on board in batches. When I saw their numbers without any signs of losses, I didn’t know if I should laugh or get mad!
I checked over my fourth dragon. Luckily he gained his consciousness and was ready to fight again.
In this fight, I needed to use all the power I had. Not only because the contract forced me to do so, but the enemy this time was something I shouldn’t underestimate.
And he wasn’t alone! That Curasee would definitely get the help from those dirty angels.
As I had nothing to do, I returned to the unconscious jumper and checked his condition. That dude was a badass, but he fell into such a state because he met something he wasn’t prepared for.
Just seeing his body weak and soft made me recall something. I firmly shook my head, pushing away any thought that might be distracting at this moment.
“I shouldn’t get overconfident,” I muttered to myself, “even though he was this close to dying. And he ended up in such a state… That’s scary!”
I knew what the jumper experienced could have happened to me without doing any better. Even when he was cursed, and when all the signs pointed out towards that Curasee race, I never thought about that!
And that was the scariest thing about all this. In such an apocalypse, death loomed everywhere and would come at any time if one wasn’t well prepared.
“Oh, he came so fast,” as I just turned my eyes around, I saw a large number of races led by Fang.
“We are ready,” Fang’s strong voice came from down below.
“Come on board,” I said, “all of you.”
Of course this might seem a bit risky, but I wasn’t fearing anyone by the contract rule. They were obliged to follow my lead and not betray me in any way.
As they boarded the chariot, I noticed the monster seemed to focus more on my chariot. More bulldozer sized meteorites began to hammer over my chariot’s shield.
But I stood with a calm face even while feeling the hideous gazes of those stealthed angels.
They were prepared to attack when the time was right, and I was ready to meet that move with a perfect counter.
“This chariot…” Fang only led a handful of race prodigies to the surface of the chariot. The rest just kept running beside my girl, getting the free protection provided by her skirt, sorry, I meant shield.
“It belongs to my race!” The one who spoke was one of the five dragons who boarded my chariot. “How did you get it?”
“It’s a gift,” I evilly grinned, “one of your great archlords saw something in me and we became friends. He gave me this as a token of his support.”
“You…” of course my face and tone told anyone I was teasing the dragons. But they couldn’t do anything towards this. “Good… very good,” the biggest in size said while his long and curved moustache trembled from his immense anger.
“We can’t touch you for now. If not for brother Fang and his affirmation of this deal, we wouldn’t have come here!”
“Our deal is only limited to this city and this fight,” another dragon race youth said, “after that we will be enemies again.”
“I depend on that,” I didn’t show any sign of worry on my face or tone, “now let’s get to the bottom of this. I’ll steer my chariot towards that monster and we will kill it.”
“…!!!”
A heavy silence prevailed over all of them except for Fang. The latter already knew about my intentions. But the rest thought they misheard me or something.
“Hahaha, I never knew humans are this funny,” one of the most beautiful faces I ever saw laughed while her sexy body swayed to one side as she added in a tempting tone, “if you are this capable, this this sister here will be willing to give you a sweet taste of this…”
She moved her two slender hands over her slender waist and voluptuous breasts. She winked and sent a kiss in the air, and for a second there I swore I saw a small pinky heart made out of foam get in shape before it shattered.
“You…!” that beautiful face of that young and delicious succubus girl changed for a brief second. I knew what happened, she tried to seduce me and my heart pendant stepped in to save my neck.
Damn! Such a race was really scary one!
“Stop trying,” I waved my hand, “I’m immune to your beauty.”
“No one can resist me forever,” she announced in a challenging attitude. For unknown reason, I saw envious gazes from dragons and Berserkers, while the Selovators gave me pitiful ones.
“Are you saying you can kill that beast?” one berserker said. Like the dragons and Selvators, he shared an equal giant body with strong muscles exposed without any clothes over them. His tone was deep and his attitude seemed vulgar.
He got elliptical eyes that had two colours, one was red and the other was blue. His hair shared the two colours as well. His ears released bell-like sounds whenever he moved or spoke.
“I can,” I said, “but we’ll do it together.”
“No offence,” one of the Selvators said, “but how do you plan to get near that thing? How do you plan to kill it?”
He pointed towards the roaring and totally crazy monster chasing me like a mountain. Of course they wouldn’t think of a possible way to even inflict damage over such a behemoth, anyone would fail to get such a thing.
But I had something that would work perfectly fine over such a monster.
“This chariot can lead us safely towards him,” I knocked with my right foot over the surface of my chariot, “but that needs help from all of you.”
“Anything you need,” at this moment, the all silent Fang finally spoke up, “we will provide.”
“Just give us a chance and we will crack open that damned monster with our strength… Ooohhhaaa!”
“Ooohhhaaa!”
Like a chorus, once that big berserker dude shouted and made such a loud war cry, all the berserkers here and down below shouted in unison in response.
That was cool! But dude… Weren’t you overestimating your abilities by… too much?
“Humph, if it was a contest of strength, we dragons won’t pale in comparison,” the leader of dragons’ arrogance was stirred up when he heard that shout from the berserkers. “Long live dragons!”
“Long live dragons!”
Another loud shout came from below. Damn! What were they thinking? This wasn’t a shouting competition guys!!
“Enough!” Fang’s shout was enough to put an end to this useless show, “it can’t be killed or even hurt with our current strength, even combined! Open up your eyes and listen to what Hye wants to say first!”
Thanks dude, but who said I got anything better to say here?
