Chapter 133: Blackmail
Chapter 133: Blackmail
Not just the draconic snake eyes, but even Bai Yue and Leilani were staring at Marvin with a gawking expression. They were startled by the sudden appearance and disappearance of hundreds of glorious swords. The strength of this attack has exceeded the limits of the mana channel opening realm, after all, but according to the draconian snake, Marvin was emitting the aura of a brat who clearly haven't opened more than a single mana channel.
So why and how could he be so powerful?
'It went better than I expected! It certainly was a better idea to create a skill by myself, rather than just depending on Noah for everything.' Marvin internally felt happy as his just created technique was far better than he imagined.
The technique that he just utilized was inspired by the various characteristics of mana bullet, and the myriad-shaped immortal vanquishing slash, and the insight he gained from the sword sage realm. Mana bullet is a compressed version of magic power. Its power can increase even further, as long as even more magic power is poured into the condensing mana bullet. That's when it becomes a mana blast. But as he combined the characteristic of the myriad sword, rather than hurtling to the target and bursting like a bomb it bursts into hundreds of swords that moved according to his thoughts.
Lastly, he could bend them and turn them as he pleases by utilizing the magic power in the "surrounding" as he wills.
"Your tricks are surprising indeed, mortal. But tricks can only take you so far, and I'll now truly show you why I am called the Monster Lord of this place." The draconian snake conveyed its haughty thoughts to them, as it pounced on the three unfortunate souls standing on the ground below.
Oh no!
The hearts of the beauties fluttered in despair as they turned to run. In contrast, Marvin remained standing in his place with a straight back. Facing the draconian snake, his eyes didn't reflect even a single trace of fear as he slowly began to raise his hand that held three fruits.
"You wanna kill us, but asked yourself if you're ready!" Marvin shouted as he threatened to destroy the continental's fruits held in his hands.
The draconian snake stopped in its tracks, just a few meters away from crashing right atop Marvin as if a cat got its tongue. The water shined a stunning pearly blue as the morning sunlight reflected off of it. Scarlet eyes murderously glared at Marvin, as the aqua blue scales gleamed and a few droplets slid down the forehead of the draconian snake and touched Marvin, who glared right back in its eyes.
The hue of threat evident in his eyes.
"What do you think you're doing? Do you think I'll be threatened by such lousy means, huh?" The draconian snake hissed as it didn't dare to move a single inch closer.
"Yeah, I think it is truly threatened," Leilani said as her amethyst eyes glistened in a calculating and thoughtful glitter as she determined that the fruits were the weakness of the draconian snake.
"Me too. Otherwise, it would've already attacked rather than stopping in its track like it is doing right now," Bai Yue cutely added as she puffed up her ruddy cheeks and perky mountains heroically.
Though they flinched and took cover behind the back of their beloved husband when the snake angrily glared at them.
"Don't be scared. I got this," Marvin said as he patted their heads before beaming towards the beast that called itself a monster lord.
While looking at the draconian snake, Marvin's lips thinned into a teasing smile as he said, "Monster lord or not, little snake, your only chance to evolve to the next stage and become a greater existence lies with consuming the continental's fruits! Attack me if I am wrong but heed my words carefully, I'll surely destroy this fruit such that not even a scrap gets left behind before you even reach me."
As he said those words, the draconian snake internally sweated buckets. What the mortal was saying was entirely true, as it needed to eat the fruits or else it won't be able to evolve even after a thousand years. This snake didn't have that long to live, however. Although its body was brimming with the essence of life and bursting with overpowering strength, it was gonna enter the shedding period the next full moon, and at that time, its body required a massive source of energy or else its essence of life will be used to undergo shedding and evolution.
Besides that, if it forcefully stops its shedding process that it will get badly injured. There was a chance to even die!
"Human, don't you dare do that, otherwise believes my words, I'll kill you and all your relatives!" the snake shrieked as it still didn't dare to move.
"Haha, it is my first time seeing a dog that dares bark but not bites." Marvin taunted as he stared at the snake with utter contempt and after a moment of playful silence he continued by saying, "Strike a deal with me, and then not only will I not destroy these fruits but you'll also get a chance get them back."
This fruit was just as useful to him, and thus the young and handsome disciple of gentleman sensational didn't want to destroy a precious treasure created by the soul of this continent.
He just wanted to negotiate. That's why he went as far as to use the fruits as his hostage. He knew how precious these fruits were to the beast, after all.
"Let me think about it for a moment," the draconian snake replied as he considered how important the fruits were to him.
While the beast was taking its time to make its decision, Marvin decided to use his skill to get a better knowledge of how powerful this creature is.
[Name: Flower-like tail Draconian snake

Ability: Wood, Water
Magic power: 2680
Strength: 400

Marvin was able to roughly tell how strong the snake is after looking at its stats.
'Its agility is 200 but it isn't as fast as me! Maybe it's because of its humongous size. One thing is for sure, if I get hit by its bulky body then I'll become a meat paste! But there is a way to win this battle and obtain a lot of essence of life,' Marvin thought as he glanced back at the beauties he was responsible for. 'I'll need to secure their safety first, however.'
Meanwhile, the draconian snake has finished thinking about it, and it concluded that the fruit was really important to it, as otherwise, it would suffer severely on the next night of the full moon.
"Che, tell me what you want." The draconian snake said with a foul mood as its patience was running thin.
"Let my companions go away from here."
"Hehe, the weak bonds of mortals are mesmerizing indeed. Alright, I agreed to your demands. You'll stay here, however, and so will these fruits."
