Chapter 1220: We Need An Ultimate Killing Attack

Authorʼs Note: Unedited Chapter

-------------------

”Yeah there was a lot going on back home which caused my lateness but let me not bore you with the details,” Stark voiced with a strong tone.

ʼSomething about you him has changed,ʼ Gustav thought.

”How has takeing on the responsibility of the family head been treating you?” Gustav questioned.

”Well, it for sure isnʼt easy but somehow i made it work,” Stark had a slight change in expression that Gustav caught for a second before it went away.

”Youʼve gotten way stronger since the last time I saw you,” Stark voiced with a tone of astonishment.

”So have you... youʼre an Alpha now?” Gustav said with a surprised expression as he finally sensed Starkʼs bloodline rank.

”Itʼs the emblem. Iʼm not a true Alpha,” Stark responded quickly while waving his hand to dismiss the misconception.

”Are you just saying that to make you look weaker than you are?” Gustav eyed knitted as he voiced out.

”No its true haha Iʼm not really an alpha. Itʼs the emblem fooling you. Iʼm not actually supposed to tell anyone that,” Stark started off with a laughter before turning into a whispering at the end of the sentence.

”Hmm but no doubt i can sense that you have really increased jn strength,” Gustav decided to take his word for it but was also sure Stark had increased in strength.

”Well, I can do the three headed Draconic Transformation now,” Stark revealed as they moved around.

”Congratulations on that. You should be able to rule much easier,” Gustav voiced in response.

”I guess. Thank you once again for your help back then. You really saved my life in more ways than one,” Stark said with a smile.

”I was just doing my job,” Gustav nodded.

”Speaking of job, do your guards need to keel following us? I doubt youʼre in any form of danger around here,” Gustav added while squinting his eyes.

”Hahaha I knew you would be able to sense them,” Stark laughed lightly as he turned to the side.

”Viltru, Askim,” Stark called out.

Thiirrhh! Thrriihh!

Two figures clas in robe like outfits appeared beside Stark in the next instant.

”Family head,” They both voiced out simultaneously.

”He was aware of you guys presence,” Stark chucked.

”That is quite remarkable Officer Crimson,” Viltru voiced with a tone of astonishment.

”Hmm,” Gustav didnʼt even know how to respond to that. He had noticed them since the start so he didnʼt even find it remotely remarkable since it felt normal to him.

”Thereʼs no need to keep following me everywhere in disguise, Iʼm not in any danger,” Stark voiced out.

”We cannot comply with that, family head. We have to remain at close proximity at all times,” Viltru stated while the other guard nodded.

Stark shrugged in defeat as he stared back at Gustav.

”Follow me back to our accommodation quarters,” Gustav voiced before leaping into the air.

Fwwwhiiii~

Wings sprouted out of his back and a loud flap reverberated across the vicinity.

”Youʼre on,” A smile appeared on Starkʼs face as his skin turned smooth and shiny.

Golden scales appeared all over his body as he increased immensely in size while massive wings spread forth from his back.

In a couple of moments, he had completely transformed into a nearly thirty feet large draconic figure, with three heads, sixteen horns and blazing yellowish eyes.

A powerful aura spread forth from his being across the vicinity, attracting the attention of everyone in the area as he flapped his wings.

Fwwwhoooommsshhh~

Stark figure instantly ascended into the sky, dissapearing into the distance as powerful winds blasted across the vicinity.

He caught up with Gustav in barely a few moments, ”Youʼre still slower than me,” His deep and menacing voice was heard along with a light chuckle.

”I let you catch up,” Gustav responded from the side.

”Then by all means, go all out,” Stark kicked his Draconic feet in mid air like an excited little child as he spoke.

”Weʼre here,” Gustav voiced before pausing his flight in mid air.

”Oh that was short...” Stark responded as he quickly made a turn in mid air after flying past the structure below.

--------------

Within an unknown accommodation area, a group of five could be seen having a meeting of sorts.

They all had similar body features. Transparent skins, green eyes and an oddly shaped reddish like head.

One of the members within the gathering seemed to be currently speaking.

”He humiliated my brother! He is still recovering and cannot join us for the next major challenge. Even after IYSOP is over, this humiliation will follow him for the rest of his days.

Everyone witnessed what he became after that earthling used her power on him. They witnessed his utter nakedness and the form he would take in old age. His tufaka out on display.

He will never be the same. Never!”

The person speaking happened to be seething with rage.

”And that is why he must pay,” He added, ”With his life,”

”The problem is, we cannot kill a participant on purpose without getting disqualified,” Another one of them voiced.

”Then we shanʼt kill them on purpose or at least we will have to make it look like it wasnʼt on purpose,”

”Youʼre right Orimon. We still havenʼt paid their captain for what he did to Unda. Letʼs see how he feels after he loses one of his teammates,” The first one responded.

”How can we make it look like it is not on purpose? Last I checked, the earthlings are very strong so killing any one of them without getting into a fight where attacks are traded doesnʼt seem possible,” One of them stated.

”Thereʼs only one way. It had to be done in a single attack. We have to make sure that earthling loses her life with a single attack. That way we can pretend it was a mistake especially since the mixedblood earthlings are known to be quite durable,” Orimon voiced.

”If that is the case, we need an ultimate killing attack. One that will guarantee instant death no matter how powerful the opponent is. One that cannot be guarded against,” Uzion voiced.

-”We have to ask Master Shirmin for help without letting the captain know,”

#######

In another accommodation area, a group of twenty formed a circle. They all had bandage like black clothes wrapped around their bodies from bottom to top, leaving only their eyes exposed. However, even their eyes were pitch black and soulless looking.

They stood in place for a bit with dark mist emitting from their figures. In their midst, the dark mist formed a pair of ʼ1ʼ shaped green eyeballs that seemed to be speaking.

-”Have you made confirmation?”

”We need more time Prime Vessel Ji,” The captain spoke with a raspy tone.

-”The kid, is he worthy?”

”He is fighting the possession of the crown. This means he has been chosen which makes him worthy,”

-”But he still battles with acceptance. If he still hasnʼt accepted it before this hoax of a competition ends, kill him,”

”As you command, Prime Vessel Ji,” The captain responded.

-”Now for the major issue... Have you discovered the identity of the outworldly?”

The next day arrived very quickly and the IYSOP participants began to make their way across to the arena.

Gustav and the others also moved alongside the crowd headed in the direction of the arena. They were accosted by a couple of reporters once more who kept asking questions like what Gustav intends to do about the captains that had their sights on him.

Gustav wasnʼt interested in the questions of the reporters today so he avoided them with the others.

”That Stark guy seems cool. Our strength would increase if he joins us,” E.E voiced from the side as they arrived in the arena.

”Thereʼs no empty slot. Besides, the group seems powerful enough as it is,” Gustav responded.

”There could be an empty slot,” Teemee voiced from the side as he stared at Yonda.

”*cough cough* I didnʼt say nothing,” E.E said as he slowly shrunk away.

”Hey hey you brought this up so donʼt leave me in the dust,” Teemee grabbed E.Eʼs battlesuit with a look of betrayal.

”Well, I have to admit that he complains too much. He might be a liability to the team soon,” Falco chimed in.

”Stark is so much easygoing and heʼs rich too,”

”Letʼs not forget heʼs the leader of one of the most powerful families on earth,”

”And heʼs super strong too,”

Abestos, Teemee and Ria voiced.

”Alright, stop it. I am not kicking him off the team unless he performs an action that is harmful to the group. If you guys feel he is difficult, then try speaking reason to him first,” Gustav cut them off while waving dismissively.

It turned out that Stark had managed to win everyoneʼs heart after the time they spent with him yesterday when Gustav brought him over to the accommodation area.

As much as Gustav would like to take their suggestions on bringing Stark into the group, this was something he couldnʼt easily agree too. There were a lot of factors to consider. Besides, he wasnʼt aware if Stark was even interested in participating.

Chatter! Chatter! Chatter!

The arena remained noisy until a platform began rising above the ground in a particular area. Upon Handler one appearance, the arena quietened. It was time for the briefing of the next major challenge.
