Chapter 188
Lagaope spoke as he looked back to his land but the priest added,
Lagaope was angry, but was also curious.
<…>
It was disappointing to know that they survived only because they were weak.
The priest answered,
Sian was dumbfounded.
“Then you should’ve finished it at Ra-Sian. Why did you…”
Sian thought it would be better if Sian and Lorvall teleported to Ra-Sian first and fight there so that the Drakuns will not come after them. But Lagaope shook his head.
“Ugh.”
“…”
“…”
“You should’ve told me that first!”
Sian began blowing energy to the rune. It wasn’t because of Lagaope’s words. Sian himself was now feeling three powerful energies flying toward him at enormous speed.
“Ugh…”
“Stiel! Come here!”
Sian quickly filled up the needed energy to the rune and the rune began to activate. Sian hid all of his power and dragged Stiel into the rune. Soon, he was gone.
Right after they were gone, Drakuns landed on the ground while they flapped their slick ten pairs of wings and checked on the runes.
The Drakun frowned. If they tore through the dimensional barrier, those crazy beasts would jump at them at once. The three of them weren’t enough to fight against those beasts. They were the same type of Alphas, but the power difference was too large. As they wasted time fighting the Lukra, those beasts had become too powerful.
One of the Drakuns mocked the other. Attacking the weak humans was absurd. It was a dirty act.
The two Drakuns growled at each other but another one stopped them.
Then they began flying back to where they came from.
“Whew.”
Lagaope sighed after he was finished talking through the communication magic from within
“Is it finished?”
“Yeah. They really are arrogant.”
Lagaope was worried that the Drakuns will unleash their anger toward the humans but it didn’t happen.
“But is it okay? I’m the
Lagaope grinned.
“Ha… do you think becoming an Alpha is that easy? You are not even a Beta yet.”
“Ugh. By the way… do you really have only five years to live?” Conrad asked worryingly.
“Yes. About five years.”
“…”
“But I can revive through the orb! Hahaha!”
“…”
Conrad became dumbfounded. It seemed Lagaope spoke about the five years to Sian in order to fool him.
“I did all I can though. The rest is up to Sian.”
“You believe in him so much. I don’t think he’s the type to fight for humankind. What if he stays hidden?”
Conrad spoke as he saw Sian as someone who hated fighting. It didn’t seem like Sian will come to people’s aid.
“There’s a limit. Besides, I don’t expect him to go out and beat up all of Harijans, Drakuns, or Lukra just now.”
“Then what?”
“It will be peaceful for a while, but it won’t last long. If the balance between the three races breaks down, the land will be at war. Sian will have to fight if he wants to protect his family from it. The human race will be wiped out if he doesn’t.”
“Right.”
“That’s why I created orbs for his family. So that they will not die before that happens. I also increased Stiel’s life span. I want Sian to protect his family. That will suffice. He will fight those disastrous races to protect his family. I didn’t expect him to fight for all of humankind. Broxian didn’t do that either.”
“Oh…”
“Monsters can deal with monsters. Besides…”
“Huh?”
Lagaope grew hesitant. Conrad waited for Lagaope to answer and he grinned.
“I can’t believe I’m saying this when I believe in science, but Sian is really unlucky. He will need to fight whether he likes it or not.”
“…Right.”
Conrad also knew how unlucky Sian was.
“We should look after ourselves for now.”
“Right.”
The Lorvall family that ruled over this land was now gone, but Conrad was still there. Conrad would probably be able to unite all of mankind and encourage them to grow.
Conrad nodded. They needed to think about what to do on this land where only humans were left.
