Chapter 104: Father of Rafik!
Molmo followed behind Osse.
After passing through a long corridor, Osse finally stopped in front of a sealed wall.
Molmo looked at Osse in confusion.
Then, Osse gently raised his right hand and snapped his fingers.
The next moment, a black outline suddenly formed on the white wall in front of him.
Accompanied by the creaking sound of mechanical gears, the white wall slowly retreated. A secret chamber then revealed itself before Molmo.
Molmo could not help but raise his eyebrows upon this sight. He did not expect the Kakadores mansion to hold this many secret rooms.
“Follow me.”
Osse turned around and glanced at Molmo before descending the pitch-black staircase. Realizing this was a signal to follow, Molmo followed closely behind.
One mechanical voice after another sounded. The door to the secret room behind him gradually shut itself, and before long, Molmo’s vision had returned to darkness.
Had he been the previous Molmo, he would most likely have panicked upon being deprived of his vision.
However, the current Molmo was possessed by a devil, and he his senses had been enhanced by tens to hundreds of magnitudes.
The current Molmo could still move as easily as if it was day within the pitch-black stairway.
After following Osse for about 5 minutes, light gradually returned to Molmo’s sight.
A small room that was around a hundred square meters appeared before the duo.
All kinds of powerful weapons were displayed on the walls.
There were crossbows, longswords, and even mysterious staffs.
One of the weapons looked extremely special. It was a huge sword with fine dragon scales all over its body.
Even though Molmo was more than 10 meters away from the huge sword, he could still feel its overwhelming aura.
At this moment, the powerful weapon was levitating in the middle of the room, and like a sea-pacifying needle[1], it seemed to be suppressing all the other weapons in the room.
“So this is the Kakadores family’s arsenal…”
Looking at the countless dazzling weapons in front of him, Molmo could not help but gape.
As a result of his enhanced perception, he could detect a faint aura being emitted by all the weapons present.
“Choose a weapon that suits you.”
Osse turned his head and looked at Molmo.
“The weapon you choose will very likely to be your partner for the rest of your life.”
“All the weapons here are at least Gold Rank. As such, if you were to leave it unsupervised in the outside world, they would undoubtedly be stolen or snatched away.”
Molmo nodded, stepped forward, and scanned across the room.
Following this, Molmo slowly closed his eyes. With the help of his his enhanced perception, he was carefully sensing the fluctuations of the weapons around him.
Osse, who was watching from the side, was a little surprised by Molmo’s actions. For one, he did not even bother trying any of the weapons. Instead, he was relying solely on his perceptive ability.
Although he knew that Molmo’s perception had been amplified greatly due to his devil possession, Osse did not expect his senses to be this sharp.
At this moment, Molmo suddenly opened his eyes, and a sharp glint flashed across his eyes.
He slowly walked to the side, picked up a short blade that was only the size of two fists, and said, “Mr. Osse, I choose this one.”
Rather than saying that the weapon that Molmo picked up was a short blade, it was more like a dagger. Its entire body was bright silver, as if it was covered in ice.
Osse nodded and did not say anything else.
“All you need to do now is to spar against me for a few rounds. Doing so will strengthen your coordination with that weapon, and once that’s settled, you can follow me to settle the score with the Red Dragon.”
Upon hearing those words, Molmo became visibly excited.
“Mr. Osse, so, what you’re saying is that I now possess the strength to avenge my father?”
Osse shook his head. “With your current strength, defeating that Red Dragon by yourself is no more than a pipe dream. Even if there were 10 of you, you would still not be its match.”
A trace of frustration flashed across Molmo’s eyes. He continued, “In that case, then why bother searching for that Red Dragon? I am clearly not his match…”
Osse glanced at Molmo and slowly beckoned with his right hand. The dragon scale greatsword levitating in the middle of the armory seemed to have sensed something as it suddenly trembled. After which, it transformed into a ray of light and directly appeared in Osse’s hand.
The moment the greatsword appeared in Osse’s hand, an incomparably powerful pressure immediately erupted with Osse as its center!
Gusts of wind erupted from Osse. At this moment, Osse was just like a god of war!
“Who said that you are going to fight him alone?”
“This dragon provoked the Kakadores clan and even killed Rafik, Hercules’ elder brother.”
Osse said slowly.
His eyes turned colder and colder. His killing intent was clear for all to see.
Molmo was shocked.
Of course, he had heard of Rafik’s name. He was a famous existence on the continent. He was also known as one of the Three Heroes, together with Carvella and Tahir.
Although he knew that the Kakadores possessed the bloodline of a hero, Molmo had lived in the snowy mountains all year round. He did not know which of the three heroes hailed from the Kakadores.
At this moment, Molmo finally understood why Osse was willing to go to such lengths to help him.
Rafik was actually Osse’s child!
Osse looked into the distance. It was in the direction where the shocking phenomenon had occurred.
“Since you have already chosen your weapon, it is time to begin the final integration.”
“As long as you can last 3 minutes against me, I will acknowledge your ability.”
Osse looked at Molmo and said calmly.
Molmo swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
He recalled the punch he had received from Osse back when he had first received the Devil’s power.
“If you can’t hold on for 3 minutes against me, you’ll have to skip out on this operation to hunt down the Red Dragon.”
Molmo clenched his fists and said seriously.
“I’ll work hard.”
Hercules was hiding behind the stairwell throughout the entire process.
He had heard everything that Osse had said earlier.
Hercules was very surprised when he heard his father telling Molmo to last 3 minutes against him.
‘Father actually intends on using the Dragon Scale Greatsword?’
‘I couldn’t even last 3 moves against that weapon…’
As far as Hercules was concerned, holding up 3 minutes against a Dragon-Scale-Greatsword-wielding Osse was a fool’s errand!
