Chapter 1247 You fucking bastarda?|
1247 You fucking bastard...
"And you think I don't have what it takes to unroot that bastard?" Nux questioned with a playful smile on his face.
"I have never seen someone capable of unrooting his enemy run like a dog with his tail between his legs," Gargan spoke, this time, his words were harsh.
Nux, however, didn't mind and just chuckled.
"Arcturus is nothing but a Whetstone, Gargan."
"What...?" Gargan narrowed his eyes.
"Do not forget who I am,
I am someone who defeated all Seven Heroes, the so-called strongest of the Youngest Generation alone.
I was someone who was introduced by Vyriana, she ordered me to come and kick the Heroes' ass because they were getting too arrogant.
From the start, I play on a different playing field compared to you that Lord of yours.
What? You don't think I have the connections and power to unroot Arcturus?
Did you forget about Vyriana?
That woman alone can wipe out the entire Dragon Continent with just a gesture.
Why do you think she hasn't involved herself in this 'fight' between the Dragon Continent and ExceedoGenesis?
Is it because she doesn't wish to involve herself with these little matters?
Don't be stupid, Vyriana was never someone who would care about these things. If something annoyed him, she would destroy it.
And trust me, Arcturus is extremely annoying to deal with.
Actually, the sole reason Arcturus is even alive till this point is because of me.
He has a use in Vyriana's eyes, he is a whetstone, a stepping stone for me to step on.
All this ExceedoGenesis versus the Dragon Continent farce, it is nothing more than a playing field for the bigger players to temper me.
All of you are just some side characters who will be forgotten once you are no longer useful. The same goes for your Lord."
Nux spoke and this time, it wasn't just Gargan.
Oberon, Eisheth, Lyriana, and other Divine Stage Cultivators all had similar expressions on their faces.
"..."
However, out of everyone, Lyriana knew the truth.
What Nux said was correct.
Heck, she had seen how close Vyriana and Nux were.
Considering their relationship, Lyriana was sure that Vyriana wouldn't mind killing a few 'annoying bugs' just to help Nux out.
In this battle, Arcturus never had a chance.
And as if Nux could sense what Lyriana was thinking, he quickly shook his head.
"Don't think Arcturus or any of you never had a chance. Trust me, if I was ever in a situation where my life was at risk, Vyriana wouldn't have made even a single move to protect me.
Yes, if you were in a position to kill me, you would have been able to kill me without any single interference.
Do you know why?
It is because if I cannot even deal with you people, then in Vyriana's eyes, I do not deserve to be whetted and personally looked after by her.
You are that worthless in the grand scheme of things.
And indirectly, Vyriana was that sure that none of you would be able to harm me because I can assure you, that woman could never see me get hurt."
A confident smile appeared on his face and instantly, Lyriana recalled how Vyriana had stepped in the moment Caesar and Faustina made moves towards Nux.
The woman even stood up against people who had higher status compared to her just for Nux's sake, people, who she believed could actually harm Nux.
"So, Gargan, do you still truly believe that I do not deserve to be your Master and that Arcturus does?"
Nux spoke as he glanced at Gargan.
"Because if you do,
Then maybe I was wrong about you and you are indeed just a bigger fish in a small pond, someone with a limited vision who cannot think of a vast world that is beyond his expectations."
Gargan momentarily froze, his mind couldn't comprehend what Nux said.
Suddenly, he felt small.
His ego as a Divine Stage Cultivator was thoroughly crushed.
He couldn't recall the moment he was squatted to the ground, forced to kneel just by using her Aura.
He recalled how even the so-called Dragon Lord was no different than them, a bunch of weaklings unable to resist the strong.
And to think that 'Strong' was a woman who was a Divine Stage Cultivator, just like them.
"I will ask you again,
Gargan Fireclaw, are you willing to be my Slave?"
Nux repeated his question, this time, his words echoed through Gargan's head, and in the end,
"Yes."
Gargan had no other choice but to agree.
A wide smile appeared on Nux's face. He didn't think he would get what he wanted just by using words alone.
Crushing the opponent's spirit was a much stronger weapon than he initially thought.
On the other hand, Gargon could feel a strange energy entering his Body.
"W-What did you do to me?" He questioned as he glanced at Nux.
"Nothing, just a little something that would ensure that you would never betray me,"
Nux chuckled as he patted the Dragon's shoulder.
"What...?"
Gargan frowned, however, soon, his eyes widened in fright when he noticed his body moving on its own and kneeling on the ground.
"W-What is h-happening...?" He questioned.
He couldn't believe how he had completely lost control over his body. He was using all his strength to stand back up, however, his body simply refused to listen to his command!
It was something he had never felt before.
"Do you finally realize it?"
Suddenly, Gargan heard Nux's question.
"W-What...?"
"The difference between Arcturus and me, of course."
Nux chuckled.
"W-What did you do to my body?" He repeated his question.
"I did what I asked.
I turned you into my Slave."
Nux replied.
Then this time, he used the connection and spoke right into Gargan's mind,
'I now have complete control over your body, your life, your death, everything belongs to me. I can see your memories, alter them and I can even create new memories just for you, turning you into a mere puppet who is a mere reflection of his past self.
Of course, the last option is only for the Slaves who do not act according to their Master's need.'
"You think you can get away with this!?"
Gargan shouted, his eyes bloodshot as he glared at Nux.
'Hmm? You think you have any other option now?'
Nux questioned back, then suddenly, despite not wanting to, Gargan's head moved on its own and he touched his forehead on the ground.
'Do not forget your place, Lizard.
Unlike the elves, who I still feel guilty about and have a soft spot for, you were once my enemy, I will not hesitate to make you feel the pain you have never experienced before. Do not make me do it.
Now close your mouth, I do not wish to create a scene in front of my Mother-in-law.'
Nux spoke as he glanced at Eisheth, who was looking at him with a shocked look on her face.
Nux chuckled.
Eisheth didn't know how to react to that.
In normal situations, she would have chuckled back, probably with an even more playful expression than Nux's, however, right now, Nux was standing with a Dragon kneeling in front of front him.
A Dragon who was probably stronger than her in a one-on-one battle.
Seeing Nux standing like that... even Eisheth felt intimidated.
On the other hand, Gargan, who had received another shock wanted to ask something, but couldn't open his mouth because of Nux's command.
However, as a Divine Stage Cultivator, he soon learned how the Mental Connection of the Slave Seal worked, and,
'Elves...? Are you saying that you did the same with the Elves...?'
'All 31 of them, their Queen included.'
Nux didn't bother hiding and Gargan finally understood why the elves were going so far for Nux's sake even when there was no apparent relation between the two.
'To think this man had an entire race under his command...'
'Gargan, I suggest you to act carefully.
Do not force me to use abilities I would rather not use.'
Nux spoke in a calm tone.
'...'
Gargan momentarily turned silent, taking some time to think about the situation, then finally, he completely gave in.
Not that he had any other option,
'What do you want me to do?'
A satisfied smile appeared on Nux's face.
"Come with me."
He spoke as he opened the Portal to the Dragon Continent, right inside Gargan's room, and walked out.
Gargan followed as he was ordered.
"What do you want me to do?" He questioned as the Portal closed.
"Nothing, you just wait."
Nux replied with a smile on his face.
Gargan frowned, wanting to know what all this was about but suddenly, his expression changed when he noticed another Divine Stage Dragon coming towards him and he finally understood what Nux wanted to do.
'You fucking bastard...'
He cursed, Nux, however, laughed out loud,
"I guess I do not need to explain it, do I?"
He questioned and a few minutes later, another Divine Stage Dragon was pushed into the Death Portal where more than 30 Divine Stage Dragons were waiting for him, this time, by the man he trusted.
