Hero of Darkness

Chapter 471: The Chaotic Duo

Kahn had a curious expression on his countenance as Oliver urged him to get the gang together before they went to the entrance to the inner barrier. Because they had no other choice left since there was absolutely nothing other than the chaotic environment filled with lightning strikes, burnt ground, and streams of magma.

To someone like Kahn, this was the definition of Purgatory where the biggest sinners were sent to repent for eternity in many religions and cultures.

”Why?” asked Kahn.

”I canʼt tell you. You will need to see it for yourself.” replied Oliver.

”Fine then. Call back everyone.” commanded Kahn.

After almost half a day, all the subordinates gathered. And since there were no suns and moons in this region inside the second barrier, just dark thundering clouds and typhoons… none of them could even tell what time it was.

Kahn and the gang spent 5 hours just traveling to the said location guided by Oliver.

As they finally see why Oliver came back for them and asked them to gather first… Kahn and the rest of the crew had their keen senses telling them that it was a bad decision.

Survival Instinct rang like a loudspeaker inside Kahnʼs head, telling him to run away as soon as he could. And this time… it was even more terrifying and louder than the last time when Kahn faced the aura of Stronoff Mikealson, a 4th stage saint swordsman.

Because there were two gigantic monsters just 3 kilometers away. Each one was around 500 meters in height alone and behind them, was a gate that looked identical to the one whence Kahn came.

Both of these creatures were actually ginormous wolves.

One had completely white while the other had pitch-black fur. On their legs and heads, were some sort of ancient runes that glowed blue and red respectively.

But before Kahnʼs entourage, who were hiding their presence completely, could even do anything or approach these two creatures…

”Oho, brother. Looks like that bird is back with more of his friends.” said the gigantic white wolf.

”Come here little birdy. Want to play again?” he asked in a mischievous tone.

”Fool! Is that what you should be excited about?

And why are there beasts like us this time? Shouldnʼt it be those warriors from small and weak species as always?

And I think that other than that weakling human among them, the rest are all monsters.

Thereʼs even an undead amongst them.” said the black wolf who reprimanded his brother.

Everyone was terrified as soon as they were noticed from this far distance. Because of Kahnʼs skills that he imparted to them, all of them were extremely efficient in hiding their presence. But even so, they were found very easily.

[System, what are these two?] asked Kahn as he

[Both of them are Mythical Rank creatures named Skoll and Hati. Direct Descendants of the Godbeast Fenrir.] replied the system.

[Based on their aura, world energy and size… both of them are at least level 300.] reported the system even without Kahn asking.

Kahn had an awestruck expression on his.

Mythical Rank!

Both of these two guardians were of mythical rank.

Even with their whole crew… taking out one mythical rank was already an impossible task. But there were two of them.

[Human! You should forget about that tablet. Even I canʼt do anything against them.

I could be of use if there was only one… but two means certain death for all of us.] Rudra suddenly spoke in Kahnʼs mind.

”Fuck! No wonder no one was able to retrieve that tablet thing.

Not only could only semi-saints enter here… but they were up against mythical rank monsters at that.

Even 3 semi-saints can barely hold against a first-stage saint. But there are 2 who are comparable to a third stage saint, maybe even above given their rank.” said Kahn.

Meanwhile, all the generals got in a battle formation, ready to defend their master.

”Oh, thereʼs one with our bloodline too. But heʼs too weak. And his bloodline isnʼt very pure either.” said the black wolf.

At this moment, Oliver decided to speak up.

”Master… I saw them from 20 kilometers away when I was searching through this place.

And when I saw them from afar and came here to assess the situation… they sensed me despite me completely hiding my aura.

Later, they challenged me to a fight.” revealed Oliver.

”And given the sky and endless supply of lightning. I was already in my peak battlefield environment.

And since they had hidden their rank, I engaged in a battle with them.

But after fighting with them head-on, even my biggest attack skill, Vajra… didnʼt even touch them.

Rather, my strongest strike was diverted into a different direction.” he iterated.

”But before I could retract from the battle… I was pulled in by some gravitational force and both the wolves ran after me as if I was their prey.

I changed to my Hawkman form and barely managed to escape. But I noticed one thing…

That one of them can pull things closer while the other can push things away.” explained Oliver about why he was embarrassed to reveal the reason when Kahn asked him.

Because Oliver was basically hunted down like two wolves chasing after a turkey.

Thatʼs why even Oliver failed to defeat them since he wasnʼt confident to win against this duo in his Thunderbird form.

”Master… Those runes. Theyʼre similar just like the ones we saw on Vilgax after we destroyed the magic formation.” said Ceril.

”I see. I donʼt think we can defeat them. So I have to try something.” spoke Kahn and inside of hiding behind his allies, he marched forth.

Kahn then stopped as soon as he came 2 kilometers close to the massive duo.

And instead of exuding any type of aura or intent to fight, he acted like someone familiar with these two monsters.

”Before we start… I have a proposition.

Instead of fighting between ourselves for no reason. How about we…” he said and revealed his plan to avoid a conflict.

”Make a deal?”
