Chapter 341 Meeting Kane Again
Kane was currently camping in the forest with his family, subordinates, and mercenaries. He spent half of his family wealth to hire ten awakeners at the Grandmaster rank.
He also brought all of his subordinates with him because he did not want to fail again.
No matter what happened, they had to succeed in killing Ace this time because Ace had ruined his family and killed his grandsons and son.
"Grandpa, you said you had turned Ace into a magical beast. Does that mean it will be easier for us to kill him?" Axel knew about Ace because Kane had told his family everything.
"You are wrong. Even though he is a dragon now, it's still not easy to kill him." Kane would not have run away if killing Ace was easy.
"Father, why didn't you turn him into a weak magical beast? For example, like an ant or something like that." Lea threw a question at Kane.
"I have no control over it." Kane said his magic could only turn Ace into a magical beast.
He did not know what kind of magical beast Ace would turn into because it depended on Ace's talent and fate.
"Does that mean he is destined to be a great figure in the future?" Axel inquired.
"I think so too. After all, he turned into a dragon." Kane hated to admit it, but he thought so, too. "However, he is not unkillable now. We can still kill him."
He then continued, "That's why we have to kill him as quickly as possible because I'm afraid we won't be able to kill him if we give him time to grow."
"Grandpa, we bring seven thousand people with us. Fifteen of us are at the Grandmaster rank, while you are already at the Exalted rank. I'm sure we can kill him later."
"I believe so." Lea added.
As they were talking about Ace, a blue-haired man ran toward their camp with wounds all over his body.
If he was not an awakener at the Grandmaster rank, he would have died by now.
The name of the grown man was none other than Zak, the trusted subordinate of the Holmes family.
Zak did not go to Nightshire City last month because Devin ordered him to monitor the Fraser family.
And the Fraser and Royal families were the reason why he was injured heavily because they noticed him when he eavesdropped on their conversation.
'I have to tell my lord about this important information.'
After using all of his stamina and energy, he finally reached the Holmes family camp.
Axel, who noticed Zak, immediately rose to his feet. "Uncle Zak!"
Kane and Lea also rushed toward Zak.
When they noticed his injuries, they immediately took him to the tent and treated his wounds.
"Zak, what happened to you?" Kane asked curiously.
Kane, Axel, and Lea were currently standing next to the bed. As for Zak, he was lying on the bed.
"My lord, it's true. The Fraser family is behind the death of young master Levi." Zak responded, "They had planned everything from the beginning."
"The Fraser family!" Kane clenched his fist in anger.
"But why did the Fraser family want to kill Levi? I'm sure we have a good relationship with the Fraser family, so why?" Lea believed there was no conflict between her family and the Fraser family.
"They got an order from the royal family." Zak also said he was injured because of the subordinates of the Fraser and Royal families.
Luckily, he had a deadly poison in his space ring, or else he would not be able to kill them.
"The royal family?" Kane and the others said in surprise.
"Why? Why did the royal family do that? Haven't we always supported the royal family until now?" Lea found it hard to believe what she was hearing.
Her family always supported the Xiriel kingdom until now.
They even lost many subordinates for the sake of protecting the Xiriel kingdom in the past.
So why?
Why did the royal family do cruel things to her family?
Did all their sacrifices and loyalty mean nothing to the royal family?
Lea trembled with rage.
If she had known the royal family would be so cruel to her family, she would not have sacrificed so much for them because they returned loyalty with evil.
"I don't know exactly, Madam. But there is something they want in Nightshire City." Zak then told them many shocking information, including about Ace.
"There is something they want in Nightshire City?" Kane finally understood everything.
He finally knew why Levi died in Nightshire City.
It was because the royal family wanted to use them to destroy Nightshire City!
"I see. I see." an aura of anger burst out of Kane's body.
He knew their family lived in the Xiriel Kingdom, but he did not expect them to treat his family like a doll and a toy.
"Father, what should we do now? Should we go back or continue our journey to Nightshire City?" Lea inquired.
"Let's go home." Kane responded, "Let's go to the Fraser family and destroy them!"
"Un." Lea and Axel agreed instantly because they were also the reason why Levi, Ryan and Devin died in Nightshire City.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
When they walked out of the tent, countless fireballs fell from the sky, destroying their tents.
"What's going on?" Kane inquired.
"My lord, countless magical beasts suddenly appear and attack us!" one of Kane's subordinates responded. "Their leader is a dragon."
"What?!" Kane widened his eyes in surprise when he saw a dragon flying in the sky.
The dragon had two silver horns on its head.
Its wings were huge, and its claws were sharp.
Kane was familiar with the silver dragon in the sky because he was the reason why that dragon appeared in the world.
Ace!
Yes, the silver dragon flying in the sky was Ace, Kane's enemy.
'How? How is he in this place?'
They were still in the territory of the Xiriel Kingdom, so he was shocked when he saw Ace.
'And since when did he have many underlings? Did he conquer them after becoming a dragon?'
Countless questions appeared in his mind.
When Ace caught sight of Kane, he flew lower and uttered, "We meet again, Kane."
"Grandpa, is he Ace?" Axel, who was standing next to Kane, asked curiously.
"Yes." Kane gave an honest answer.
"Kane, today is the day you will die. Today is the day the Holmes family will disappear from this world." after saying that, Ace roared. "Kill them all! Leave no one alive!"
Ace's subordinates rushed toward Kane and the others.
Previously, Ace planned to attack the Xiriel Kingdom because the Holmes family lived inside that kingdom.
But before he attacked the Xiriel Kingdom, Renea told him that the Holmes family were in the forest.
That was why he changed his mind and rushed toward the forest because he wanted to kill all members of the Holmes family quickly.
"Boss has given an order. Kill all these humans now!" after saying that, Fyre rushed toward Kane and the others, intending to kill them all.
Not only Fyre but fifty thousand magical beasts also rushed toward them.
They hated humans to the bone, so they were pleased when Ace ordered them to kill Kane and his subordinates.
"Die!"
"Die!"
"Die!"
Ace's subordinates attacked them wildly.
Even though Kane's group had many awakeners at the Grandmaster rank, they were still at a disadvantage.
The number of Ace's followers was seven thousand times their number, so awakeners at the Grandmaster rank were not much help as every single one of them had to face seven thousand magical beasts.
"Lea! Axel!" Kane tried to save his last family, but he failed because Fyre had killed them before he could save them.
"Hahaha." Fyre laughed happily after seeing Kane's sad expression. "Cry! Cry, human! Haha."
"I will kill you!" Kane's eyes were bloodshot, and he wanted to kill Fyre so badly.
But before he could finish chanting a magic spell, Ace shot an ice ball toward him.
*Srrzzzzz…
The trees and ground froze as the ice ball landed on the ground.
Even though Kane failed to attack Fyre, but he managed to avoid Ace's attack. Kane was currently floating in mid-air.
He used wind magic to fly into the sky.
'Damn it!'
He looked at Ace with his bloodshot eyes.
"Fyre, I have enmity with him, so I will face him." Ace uttered, "Go and kill his subordinates."
"Understood, boss." After saying that, Fyre transformed into a big golden lion and attacked Kane's subordinates.
Ace returned his attention to Kane and uttered, "You won't be able to run away again this time."
