Chapter 465 Things Are Different
"You! You will die!" The man yelled out. At the same time, all the people kneeling before him quickly stood up and turned towards me. I sighed and waved my hand. Bolts of lightning shot forth and fried each one of these people's brains. I hated the fact that they were once people who had control of their own bodies, but there was nothing I could do to save them. At least I was putting an end to everything.
"So… When am I going to die?" I asked, acting confused as I watched the bodies drop down to the ground.
"This…." The man finally took a step back. I could tell he knew he was no match.
"Now then. Since you understand the situation, let's have a chat, shall we?" I asked with a bright smile on my face. "If you answer me, I might be willing to let you live."
I watched as the man's face slowly sank. To make sure he did not scale, I surrounded him in a cage made of lightning. This cation caught him off guard as he stared at me with fear in his eyes. "What are you doing!?"
"This? This is just to keep you from running away. I just want to know how many of you are already on this planet and where." I asked with a raised eyebrow.
The man's expression suddenly turned cold. "Heh, you will never get anything out of me!"
"Then die," I said calmly as I shrugged. I waved my hand, and the lighting cage broke apart and shot at the man's head. He screamed out in pain before turning into char. I looked around and sniffed the air before I smelt something sour.
"It seems there are more." I frowned slightly as I walked over to the throne. I kicked it, destroying it completely to reveal a staircase leading down. I thought for a moment before turning to Grace and saying: "Grace, you can stay here if you want."
"No, I will follow you." I figured as much, but I also wanted to give her the option to stay put. Grace was loyal and almost like a robot at times. Only when I tease her and give her a kiss does she finally show some emotions. But the dreams that I had of the timelines I have gone through before, Grace seemed more human. I hope that she will slowly become like that.
"Then let's go." I smiled and started making my way down the staircase. It went down quite far. It took us almost five minutes to reach the bottom. When we arrived, there was a large room with a huge stone bowl in the middle of the room. In this bowl was a green liquid with thousands of parasites. "So this is where they all came from…."
"I do not understand. Didn't Azengrade and the others only appear when the dungeons appeared?" Grace asked a good question. Azengrade and the others were supposed to come with the dungeons, but they were here already. This meant….
"Grace, we need to take care of this first, then we will be heading to the first dungeon we ever entered before. I hope I am wrong, but I do believe that the dungeons have already appeared." I really do hope that I am wrong. Things seem to be speeding up. Not to mention that a doom bringer had also appeared, which had never appeared before. Many things were starting to change. Whether this is for the good of all or not, I do not know. But I do know one thing. I will be sure to keep my loved ones safe.
After I fried the worms in the hidden room, I opened a portal back to the Gravos Kingdom. The location I chose was right at the location where the goblin dungeon was in the previous timeline. "It's here…. But why so early?"
"Faith, I think we should call the others…." Grace suggested. I looked over to see her face full of worry. It was rare for her to show such an expression.
"You are right. If Azengrade is truly there, then we have to deal with him as soon as possible." Since the dungeon had appeared, we would need to deal with it as soon as possible. I quickly placed a barrier around the entrance to keep people from entering it. But I did not block those from exiting. This was a precaution in case someone else had already gone in. I highly doubt they will be able to live if they did enter, but just in case.
When I arrived home, Sophie and Adel were playing a game of cards while Atolie watched on from the side. "Faith? Why are you back so soon?"
"Why are you two awake so late?" I couldn't help but smile as I looked at the three.
"It's not even last bell!" Adel pursed her lips. She hated it when I treated her like a child, but to me, she still was.
"Okay, Okay. Well, we will be going out now anyway. Besides Atolie, I will give you and Sophie a choice. I will be entering a dungeon. This dungeon might have a very powerful enemy inside of it. If you wish to enter with me, you can, or you can stay here." I was giving both girls a choice. I needed Atolie with me since she was stronger than Azengrade. She was my trump card, just in case.
"I will go," Sophie replied without even thinking about it.
"I will go too. I want to know what dungeons are like." Adel replied, which made me have mixed feelings. If I could, I would protect Adel from everything, but I sadly can't. She would need to undergo trials and tribulations if she wished to survive in our world.
"Alright, we will go together. I was planning to go tonight, but it is best if we sleep for now." Sadly, I can not rush things. Adel was still too weak to go with out sleep. We also needed to prepare many things as well. Luckily, I can teleport all of us out of the dungeon if need be.
