Dimensional Keeper: All My Skills Are at Level 100

Chapter 101: Battle to Rescue - 2

With the addition of 15 more silver swords attacking the protective sphere, sweat began to appear on Maxʼs face as he found it difficult to hold on.

”I guess this is his limit,” the young woman said calmly, turning to Allen. ”Break the shield.”

Allen smiled and added ten more silver swords. With a total of 30 swords attacking the protective sphere, cracks began to appear on the surface of the shield like spider webs until it shattered like a mirror.

Max was blown by the impact, his body sent flying toward the red cube where Alice was held captive.

”Moron! You sent Max to Veylin Draegor!” the young woman cursed Allen, seeing the direction Max was flying. ”He was my target, not his.”

Allen frowned, sensing something amiss. He believed his swords had the power to destroy the shield, but to actually blast Max away like a broken kite was something he hadnʼt expected.

ʼI guess this is normal for someone in the Apprentice Rank,ʼ he thought, dismissing it.

On the battlefield, Veylin smiled at Antonʼs question and said, ”The Monarch doesnʼt care about you, your guild, or anything in the East Region. If it werenʼt for my father wanting to upgrade his rank to Master Rank first, he would have started the war long ago.”

He added with a smirk, ”He believes that only when someone reaches the Master Rank—something no human on Valora Continent has ever done—would he be worthy enough to conquer the entire continent.”

”And you want Alice because she possesses the Legendary Phoenix Flames?” Anton asked, his expression dark.

Veylin sneered. ”Correct. You donʼt need to know the details. Just know that my father wants Phoenix Flames and any other powerful flames out there in the world.”

Antonʼs face turned ugly, and his form began to release level 2 Flame Aura. But before he could attack, a blast of energy drew everyoneʼs attention.

They all turned to see a figure flying toward them.

”Who is this fool?” The lady sitting atop the cube laughed.

Veylin also smiled, seeing that, but he noticed the figures of the two young men and the young woman in green on the roof from where Max had been blasted. ”Theyʼre here too,” he muttered, smiling.

Only Five remained expressionless, his face hidden beneath his cloak.

”Max…” Anton frowned, his eyes narrowing. Upon noticing Allen with the duo from the Monarch, he understood that the Blades were indeed working with the Monarch.

”Heʼs coming your way,” Veylin said to the lady sitting atop the cube. He pondered for a moment before continuing, ”Since heʼs coming your way, just keep this kid with Alice.”

The red-haired lady shrugged. ”I was planning to do the same.”

She floated in the air and controlled the cube, moving it toward Maxʼs trajectory.

ʼShe wants me in there?ʼ Maxʼs mind raced as he considered many scenarios and decided to go with the flow for now.

His first task was to rescue Alice, and if he couldnʼt get close to the cube trapping her, then everything he had done would be for naught. What better way to get close to her and the cube than by being trapped inside with her?

ʼThis is stupid, but I hope it works,ʼ Max weighed his options and decided to take the gamble.

Ultimately, he collided with the red cube, but instead of a solid impact, he passed into it as though dropping into the ocean.

”What is this?!” Max shouted once he was fully inside and came to his senses.

”Hehe, kid. Youʼre in for a long ride,” the red-haired lady said, smiling at Max.

”What? Whatʼs going on here?” Max asked, pretending to be clueless.

Just then, Allen, along with the green-haired brother and sister, landed near them.

”Abby, who is this kid? Is he Max Voidwalker?” Veylin asked, his eyes narrowing.

Abby, the green-haired girl, nodded, her expression dark. She had wanted to take credit for capturing Max on her own, but she had failed.

Veylin glanced at her, then at Max, before looking at the red-haired lady. ”Jessica, give me a drop of his blood.”

”Hmm,” Jessica nodded, focusing on the cube. Suddenly, a needle manifested from one of the cubeʼs faces.

”What are you trying to do?” Max crawled back in fear, but there was only so much space in the cube for two people.

As a result, he couldnʼt escape from the needle and was stabbed in the hand. But nothing happened.

”You have tough skin, I see,” Jessica smiled as she stabbed Max again, with much greater force this time.

Blood flowed out of his skin, traveling toward the other end of the cube, where part of the cube transformed into a small vessel that contained the blood.

ʼWhat is their intention?ʼ Max became curious and watched closely. If it was anything bad, he had infused some essence of his black flames into the blood.

If anything dangerous occurred, he would burn the blood completely to ashes.

Meanwhile, Anton remained calm but not as restless as before. He understood that defeating the enemy was impossible, so his plan was still to rescue Alice first.

For that, he needed help from someone of equal strength to the enemies. He had already called for reinforcements, and it was only a matter of time before they arrived.

The only problem was that they had to come from inside the dome, where the stronger monsters were trapped. So, it could take some time for them to arrive.

Therefore, whatever was happening in front of him worked in his favor, either way.

”Weʼll know if this kid is truly a Voidwalker, like Freya Voidwalker or not…” Veylin chuckled as he held the vessel of Maxʼs blood and took out a small cylindrical container filled with blood.

He turned to Max, Anton, and all the generals present before him. ”I donʼt have to say what this thing is, right?” he asked, looking at everyone. ”Iʼm just as curious as everyone here. Is this kid really the brother of the infamous Freya Voidwalker? I guess weʼll find out soon.” He sneered.

Maxʼs eyes flashed as he understood their intention. ʼIf I burn my blood here, theyʼll know. Unlike last time, theyʼre putting my blood in a cylindrical container.ʼ He felt conflicted about the situation but decided again to do nothing.

ʼWhatever. If my identity as Freya Voidwalkerʼs brother is revealed, then so be it,ʼ Max resolved. It would be discovered sooner or later anyway.

Veylin then dropped the blood from the vessel into the cylindrical container, where it mixed with the blood inside. A moment later, the container glowed with blue light, causing an ugly expression to appear on Veylinʼs face.

Some generals who understood what the cylindrical container was supposed to do also gasped in shock.

”He isnʼt the brother of Freya Voidwalker!” Veylin threw the container and the vessel to the ground in anger.

”What? He isnʼt?” Abby, the green-haired young woman, was surprised and turned to Allen with questioning eyes.

”Donʼt look at me,” Allen shrugged. ”The location you provided and the family situation… only he met the criteria.”

Abby frowned at his words. While capturing Max and Alice was one of their side goals, they had expected to finish the job easily. But it seemed they would have to settle for capturing only one of them.

”He isnʼt a Voidwalker…” Anton sighed in relief. If Max had been a Voidwalker, he didnʼt know what he would have done.

The most surprised person was Max himself. He was dumbfounded by whatever test Veylin had conducted. ʼAre they mistaken?ʼ Max was sure he and Freya were blood-related. There was no doubt about it.

But then who could explain this situation?
