Chapter 573 The Abduction Plot Unfolds



Chapter 573 The Abduction Plot Unfolds

After a while;

Qridus released his domain and let the fire giant, as well as the world serpent, teleport far away from the city.

Staring at the horizon for a few seconds, let out a deep sigh, "My dear descendant never fails to attract trouble." He then shifted his attention to the spiky sphere that reached the Spirit Core and swallowed it.

The defensive protos energy soon disappeared and Azzy started falling freely toward the ground.

Qridus quickly teleported and caught his descendant. 

As he landed on the ground, Vesyrn rushed toward him in a hurry while others stayed in their places while letting out sighs of relief at the same as the danger was averted.

Two days later;

Garcia Palace, Death Clan village;

Azzy slowly opened his eyes to see a high ceiling and quickly tried to get up but failed to do and collapsed back on the bed. As he looked around, he saw familiar things. "How did I end up home?" he wondered out loud.

The Reaper's voice then echoed in his head, "Your father brought you here."

"Eh?" Azzy was slightly taken aback. He asked the Reaper as something clicked in his mind, "Did it attract the attention of the hidden clans or my master? What happened after I defeated Fenrir?"

The Reaper started his explanation with Qridus.

"That old geezer made a breakthrough?" Azzy felt like it was too quick. He expected it would take several years for his ancestor to become a demigod.

But then again, as a weird fellow who became a supreme realm expert at the age of 17 when an average genius takes thousands of years to become one, Azzy knew that he shouldn't use the word 'quick' for someone's breakthrough.

"So, did he defeat the other monsters?" Azzy asked.

The Reaper replied, "No, he let them go as they threatened the lives stuck in his domain. One of them was your father. There's no way your ancestor would risk collateral damage when his family is involved.

Anyway, I used Fenrir's Spirit Core to evolve your Undead Hydra instead of letting your body absorb it or using it on Fenrir's skeleton. Right now, your Hydra has the same strength as the Hydra progenitor of the past. With skeletal Fenrir on the side, you would be fine with the majority of the demigods as your opponent as long as it is a one-on-one battle.

Now that the good part is over, let's talk about the bad news."

"There's bad news too?" Azzy wondered whether something was wrong with his body or something. The fact that his body isn't supporting at the moment is quite suspicious.

The Reaper then answered in a grim tone, "The appearance of three demigod realm beasts at a civilian city and one of them being Surtr will surely receive the attention from the gods as the guardian god was away on a mission. 

That isn't the worse part. The problem is the fact that the cosmic jewels were exposed to those two beasts. If the gods come and find the truth, you might be targeted.

You have to increase the strength of your undead army. You should hunt the beasts from level-5 region as many as you can and add them to your arsenal. It's the only way."

"Fine," Azzy let out a deep sigh, wondering when he can just live in peace. He is just 17 years old. Why is his life so complicated? And this isn't the first time he has thought this way.

Seeing through his thoughts, the Reaper said, "The people who are destined for greatness don't have the luxury to enjoy a normal life like the rest of humans. Get used to it."

"I know, don't need to lecture me again…" Azzy grumbled.

A day later, he finally was able to move on his own, although with great difficulty. It took him another three days to become completely normal.

During this time, what Azzy tried to prevent happened. Despite the setback that occurred due to Bathory's defeat to Azzy, he went ahead with the plan and successfully abducted all the sixty kids while on their return to Emerald City.

The teachers were knocked out by him alone. 

Fortunately, no one was killed in the process, although Snivy was badly injured as she fought a bit too hard. Later on, she went into a depression due to her helplessness in both fights.

Because of this, she made the decision on quitting the academy after this semester and go on a journey in the wild zones.

As for Flora, she wasn't at the scene as Qridus knocked her out and Vesyrn volunteered to take her away and erase the memory of this incident.

And by the time principal got the news, Aaron's two partners in crime also escaped the academy, leaving behind some of the candidates with influential parents.

With sixty lives in his hand, Aaron felt that it is enough. Hence, he didn't bother to abduct more of them.

The demand was also put on the table through anonymous mail, but WAMO has yet to make the decision as the organization still has a couple of days before the deadline. The secret agents were trying their best to locate Aaron or the kids but couldn't find the kids for the past three days.

The organization behind Aaron claimed innocence and the key witness (Azzy) to their cooperation was recuperating in the Death Clan without knowing what was happening outside. 

WAMO's supreme commander also received a stern warning from Qridus to not unnecessarily involve Azzy in this matter.

And when Azzy finally realized the truth, he wanted to confront the old man but the latter didn't return to the clan for some reason. However, he did leave a few skill cards behind for Vesyrn and Azzy to protect themselves.

As for his dad, Vesyrn became quite busy in training at the Violet Pavilion training ground, trying his best to upgrade his strength. The helplessness he faced in the battle of demigods affected his mind.

The next day, i.e. one day before the deadline set by Aaron; Azzy left the Death clan and reported for the duty.

Commander Kruger didn't act anything out of the ordinary and just sternly told him that he failed his mission.

Just because he respects Qridus' power doesn't mean he would do a favor to Azzy. Kruger has certain principles and he will follow them to the death.

After informing him of the failure, Kruger then said, "You are benched until the next mission comes up. Use this time to take a rest. I believe you must have already been informed by the elders of your clan about the upcoming war. According to WSA (world space administration), the aliens have already entered our solar system and will reach here in 8-10 weeks. You should also be ready."

"I understood, but…" Azzy nodded in understanding but he begs to differ on the rest part cuz there is something he could do at the moment. He argued that he can save the kids.

However, Kruger didn't give him such permission. "Sorry kid, but your ancestor clearly warned me of the consequences if I allow you to pursue this case."

After a brief pause, he continued, "There's a reason why demigods aren't allowed to exist on this planet. It is because people don't have the means to go against them. Their word is the final say."

"Not exactly, you could kill them with nukes," Azzy pointlessly argued in return, to which, his superior made a counterargument without needing to think, "More than 500 MT yield of TNT is needed just for the starters if we consider 40-50% energy conversion rate. We only have one such bomb so far."

"Hmm?"
