521 Putting A Plan For Rescue
Ok… At least I knew she wasn’t the one speaking to me, but another person. An enemy of mine… Interesting!
[I have a very long list of names wanting me dead, which one of them are you then?]
[One you’ll never imagine!]
[Is that so?] I clenched my fists before adding, [But I’m pretty damn sure you are someone that I can kill]
[If you found me!]
[It’s easy, motherf*cker! I’ll just go through my list, kill each and single one of them until I find you]
[You’ll take much time to do that]
[Don’t worry about my time, I get to do whatever I want with it!]
His answer revealed another thing to me, he was in this world of mine. And he was someone I could reach and kill.
But he wasn’t nearby to feel such fear. So where was he? And how did he do it?
[Let’s make a bet then… What would you do if your little beloved girl came at night and stabbed you with a dagger?]
[I will simply smash the dagger to pieces]
[What if I forced her to destroy everything close and dear to you?]
[She can’t, after all she is bound by a contract with me]
[Then I’ll smash that contract first!]
[No need] I shrugged, [I’ll come to see you first]
[We’ll see]
Breaking a contract wasn’t that hard, but for a reason I felt it was something hard for him.
So… my girl wasn’t in this world. She was taken to another world, away from here. It must be the same way the mysterious race that came attacking my forces before used to get my humans away.
He was someone I faced before, someone I and he had a very deep enmity for. And he wasn’t that mysterious bastard that was lurking at the shadows, waiting for me to slip and attack.
And he was weak. A weak person who I met before and held a deep grudge against me, with an ability to access an alien world…
That made me think of a name… That dude… He was definitely a paragon!
A paragon was such a mighty person who would get everyone to work for him. He got access to move forces through worlds, after all he was one of the few mighty figures in his world.
He was also someone who wasn’t strong enough to face me right now. Facing me meant death, and that was proven right in all the clashes I had with paragons till now.
He was biding his time, waiting for what Isac said the paragon time to shine, the fourth and fifth quest. ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕꪫꪣꫀꪶ
Would he be strong enough to face me? I doubted that. I believed any paragon would think thrice before coming at me at this current stage.
Even if the seal was lifted off their power, they still needed to train and raise it significantly to be able to crush me.
That meant… That bastard would keep Karoline in his clutches for all this time.
To relieve his control over her, I had to find her and see what that jerk used to do.
I wasn’t out of options, as I got a clue. Whatever he used, he had to use the red beam energy to execute it.
That meant the tool he used needed lots of energy to be activated. And it meant he also had the support from the angels.
Another way was by finding that bastard and killing him. Once killed, his control would be released and my girl would be freed.
The choice was simple… I had my girl far away in an unknown world right now, while I had that bastard here.
So I had to look for paragons and ask them about who did it… or kill them all and get rid of such a nuisance.
As for my girl… I just hoped she was still having part of her consciousness. After all, the part of killing that jerk was risky as she would be left all alone in such an alien world.
If she was asleep all this time, then once I kill that bastard, she would wake up to find herself in such a strange world among a strange race.
That would be the last thing I’d like to see.
The best case scenario would be for her to be brought over here before I got to kill that son of b*tch. No matter how I deeply wanted this to happen, I knew it was far unlikely to occur.
That bastard would never bring her here without being forced to. And even if I got my hands on him, he might see this as a good revenge against me.
Sigh! This situation was just… Messy. I had to first determine who he was before deciding what to do.
As for the opportunity to kill him, I knew there was a chance soon to come; the golden quests!
These quests were very important to any strong figure. It wouldn’t make sense for any paragon to skip it. And if one did, he would be marked down easily.
So one way or another, I was going to know his identity very soon.
But that didn’t mean I couldn’t start my work from now.
[Can you prepare a detailed list of all the paragons in our world?]
[All? Detailed? You know this isn’t easy stuff thrown around the corner of the street!]
[Just do it for me, it’s very important] I rolled my eyes. That Fang dude had a sharp tongue as my jumper.
[Ok, but I can’t promise anything about the Hector race. After all, they barked in our yard without invitation… Oh wait, someone just provoked the dogs to let them chase us here!]
[Stop blaming me on something I have no fault in] I couldn’t believe he was still thinking about this till now, [Just prepare the list of other races paragons for me]
[Even of our race? You know there is only one left and we are on good terms with you now]
