"You want me to drop out of the fight?" Sato recounted.
"Precisely." Luke reacted, "And believe me, it would be in your best interest to do as I say."
'This must be Erza's fiancee, ahhh, here we go again.' Sato sighed before looking Luke in the eye.
Sato then continued with a philanderer, "What made you think I'd accept your request… I'm madly in love with Erza ~ ahhh~, her beautiful white skin and long blonde hair~. Ahhh~ enough to make me fall for her all over again…".
"Why you little!" Luke shrieked, grabbing Sato's cloth and pulling him close.
Before he could utter any word, Yuri had already dashed to Luke's side and geared toward her energy blade at him while sending a death stare his way.
"Release my master." Yuri affirmed coldly.
Whoosh!
The female vampire behind Luke showed up next to Yuri with a long sword aimed at Yuri's head, which was instantly followed by Divanchi aiming a diminutive fireball at the female vampire.
Even while all this was going on, Sato still held a smile as both he and Luke stared each other in the eye.
"You might want to tell your guard to back down." Sato voiced out to Luke.
…. "Quite the subject you have there." Luke said, looking at Yuri who was just waiting for the right time to attack.
"Rexi, back down." Luke instructed, releasing the clasp he had on Sato's cloth. His guard Rexi did the same and stood behind Luke.
Sato immediately dressed well after Luke released him, "It's obvious you want to tell me something, so get on with it." He uttered.
"Glad you could tell, as I said before, I need you to drop out of the fight. I've worked too hard to just let some random jackass steal my spotlight" Luke denigrated.
Yuri grunted, "Master, please let me kill him." She said while looking at Sato from the right side.
"Relax," Sato uttered, he held Yuri's hand which calmed her down almost instantly as her cheeks turned beet red.
She didn't enunciate anything after her hand made contact with Sato's, instead, she desperately tried to act mature as the conversation continued.
"I asked this before, but why exactly would I listen to a word you say?" Sato asked.
Luke was quiet for a while before he suddenly called for his guard.
Rexi came forward and brought out a small silver cube that had red glowing light emitting from the inside.
She placed it on the ground, a few distances away from Sato. After it had been placed, Rexi clicked the red space in the middle and a hologram immediately popped out.
Sato's eyes widened in shock when he saw what the hologram was projecting. It was Elena and the mermaid chained to a wall with three huge men poking fun at them.
"Are these yours?" Luke asked with a smirk on his face, "I couldn't quite tell, I found them wandering around the garden, poor things".
"Where are they?".
"But, I'm not so evil that I'd let them die… well that depends on if you do as I say…"
"Where is she?!" Sato raged, dashing straight at Luke with a force of speed following his every moment.
The ground imploded on itself from the immersing force that Sato let out, in less than a second, Sato emerged right in front of Luke.
"How the…" Luke muttered in shock when he suddenly found Sato right in front of him with glowing eyes.
Smash!
Sato placed his palm over Luke's face and smashed his head to the ground. The building thundered from the impact and the ground scattered from the force.
Rexi's pov, everything transpired in less than a minute, the only thing she could grasp was Sato darting from his position and crushing Luke's head.
She was shocked but didn't let that stop her from protecting her master.
"Sir Luke!" Rexi called out.
Before she could move from her position, Yuri had already shown up behind Rexi and placed an energy knife on her neck from the back.
"Calm down, kitty cat… I won't hesitate to slit your throat wide open." Yuri threatened Rexi with a smirk.
"Where is she?" Sato asked, as he slowly removed his hand from Luke's face so he could hear what he had to say.
He was desperately trying to hold back the wrath he was feeling, so bad that his hand was oozing with his overflowing magic energy.
Luke's face had been wholly disfigured from the impact, his skull was smashed in which led to his eyes popping out.
But even with this…
Luke still had a smile on his face, "Very good, I knew you were strong the second I saw you, hahaha." Luke laughed.
Sato pulled Luke up and smashed him against the wall, with a trial of Luke's blood following the movement.
As soon as Luke's back slammed into the wall, the wall crumbled leaving Luke hanging in mid-air outside the mansion with Sato's hand being the only thing keeping him from falling.
"Answer the goddamn question, I won't think twice before burning you to a freaking cubab, where are they?." Sato asserted with anger as he held Luke's cloth and his eyes glowing as a laser beam was being built up in it.
"Very well… I'll tell you." Luke muttered, his face slowly healing but enough that he could see Sato.
"I have them in my hideout, but let me make this clear before you kill me. Right now, in this very Arena, there are precisely 205 magic detonators, and about 100 of them are placed right under Erza." Luke exposed with a smile.
"You would kill your own people just so you would get engaged to Erza?" Sato raised a question with a frowned expression.
"She's the key to my goal… but you don't need to know that, do you…"
"I could just kill you here and put an end to the whole thing." Sato hinted his eyes were glowing even brighter.
"You could… but I don't think you'd wanna do that, every detonator has your magic essence embedded in them, if they were to go off, you will most definitely be the prime suspect, the whole town will come after you and you can best believe Vlad will. So, be a good boy and do as I say… oh and get this…. If I die.. the bombs go, Kaboom!" Luke hinted before giving off a loud laugh.
<<Notice… the vampire is right, your magic essence covers the entire radius of the arena.>>
Sato sighed, 'And just when I thought things couldn't get any tougher… this shit happens.'.
