Chapter 563 Revenge plot.
''So inheritances also evolves two elements…" Xander seemed to have wrapped his head around the crux of the matter.
"We have wasted too much time, it''s time to end this battle." ke said as he activated Gravity domain.
The gravity of the area around ke was tripled, and although it didn''t have an outstanding effect due to the evolved bodies of Demigods, it still slowed them down.
At the same time, ke opened his right palm and a massive thunderbolt began charging up.
"We need to get out of the spell''s range." de snapped Xander out of his reverie, but ke''s spell was ready.
Zzzg!
The thunderbolt flew through the air and went for de, but he had already prepared a wall of chromastone.
However, just as the thunderbolt was about to crash into the wall, a spatial tear appeared in its path and the exit appeared behind ke.
BOOM!
The thunderbolt struck ke, and instead of writhing in pain, ke had an evil grin on his face.
Lightning Amp!
ke shot out a stronger andrger thunderbolt at de, while simultaneously opening 5 spatial tears around Xander and de.
''This isn''t yet enough to break my chromastone.'' de thought as he covered himself in a dome made of chromastone while using seismic sense to keep an eye on his environment.
Due to the presence of the spatial tears, de knew it was even more dangerous to attempt to leave the range of the gravity domain.
Once again, just as the amplified thunderbolt was about to strike the chromastone dome, a spatial tear appeared and redirected it back to ke.
BOOM!
The pain made ke grimace for a second but his grin immediately returned.
Lightning Amp!
ke shot out a thunderbolt that was now four times its original strength and size.
"One more!" ke let out a crazed growl as he shot out the thunderbolt causing Xander''s eyes to widen in shock.
"Shit!" Xander cursed as he began quickly thinking of how he could intercept the spell because it was certain that it was impossible to dodge and it would be very fatal if it struck de.
"The fight is over!" The Masked man announced as he appeared in between both parties, releasing darkness that nullified the gravity domain and devoured all the spells including the amplified thunderbolt.
"Why did you have to interrupt the fight?" Xander was not happy.
"Is that even a question?" The Masked man chuckled at how battle-crazed Xander had be. "Didn''t you realize that both of you have be sitting ducks waiting to be ughtered?"
"You are right." When he remembered that this was a 2vs1 situation, with ke not using his 3rd element or even his weapons.
Xander realized that unless it was an overwhelming victory, it would still be considered a loss no matter what they did.
"Wee to the League." Xander stretched his opened palm.
"Thanks." ke shook it firmly before turning to de who just walked away.
''Missionplete.'' ke said to himself as he had sessfully made it known that he was no weakling.
"Let''s go have a chat." The Masked man said as he warped both of them to his office.
It was a stunning and spacious office flooded with natural light, thanks to its full-length ss windows that stretch from floor to ceiling. The windows offered a breathtaking panoramic view of the clouds which was below them, and the beautiful clear blue sky.
''The League of Assassins'' base isn''t stationary?!'' ke was surprised by this discovery.
Tearing his eyes off the majestic view, ke''s attention returned to the office which was tastefully furnished with sleek, elegant furniture thatplemented the aesthetic of the space.
The walls were adorned with minimalistic yet captivating art pieces that added a touch of sophistication. The polished hardwood floors exude warmth and luxury, while the soft, neutral colour palette creates an atmosphere of tranquillity and focus.
"I would kill to get such a view and office." ke was starstruck by the beauty of the office.
"Too bad you can''t kill me." The Masked man chuckled as he continued. "You are one of the few people here that admire true beauty."
"Are you calling the rest brutes?" ke smiled with a raised brow.
"You didn''t hear me say that." The Masked manughed.
"So what next?" ke couldn''t help but ask as he was once again feeling lost.
"I have the answer to many of your questions, but first you have to deal with your emotional state before we proceed." The Masked man said causing ke''s eyes to widen.
''How does he even know I have unanswered questions?'' ke was shocked, but he soon realized something. "How do you mean dealing with my emotional state, I am perfectly fine?"
''I sound like a drug addict when confronted about his addiction.'' ke mind-chuckled.
"What I mean is you getting your revenge." The Masked man replied.
"Revenge on who?" ke was confused because although he came across lots of annoying nobles, he never for once thought of killing them.
"On the Empire." The Masked man said as he stood up and faced the windows. "As an individual, you couldn''t get your revenge on the empire, but now you are part of the League, you will be well equipped for the task."
"It''s not as if I can kill the 2 councilmen responsible for the marginalization of themoners." ke said.
"For now, yes, but you can get to them through another way." The Masked man turned to ke. "The heads of the ancestral families are giants, and you are just a normal human. So if you want to take out the head of the giant you should first look for ways to damage and cripple its legs."
"Who are the targets?" It didn''t take time for ke to realize what the Masked man meant, but he didn''t like where this was going.
"You don''t have to worry; you won''t be going after your friends." The Masked man was able to see ke''s worry.
"Orion ckthorn and Thalia Frostborne. These are direct descendants of the heads of the ckthorn and Frostborne families respectively." The Masked man disyed the images of the 2 people that he faced during his escape.
"These bastards had no ns of capturing me, they just wanted me dead, especially her." ke pointed at Thalia as he remembered that she was going for his heart during the battle.
"When do I begin?" ke was angry.
