Chapter 681: And Done
Chapter 681: And Done
—–
Lord Black Eye looked in utter shock at the scene. He had expected Frank to have some sort of trump card, perhaps his monster pets were pretty strong, and they would be able to beat most of their enemies, perhaps they could even pull a win after arduously battling for their lives…
But things went way too far ahead of his expectations, even though he considered his own expectations as realistic, what happened just now went far beyond being realistic, it was completely unrealistically ridiculous!
"T-This is… those monsters are… beyond Regional-Class…!" He muttered. "Maybe if I use my Monster, I could win against those two though… But even then… this man probably has more of these, and if he's strong enough to tame such monsters… What kind of monster is he?! Researching his background we only found some common things! This man has been hiding his strength and his monster's power this entire time from society?!"
Lord Black Eye, the leader of the Black Eye organization of the Riverside City felt overwhelmed by a sudden sense of fear, he gritted his teeth in utter disbelief as he couldn't believe such a man with such power and monsters has completely slipped off the entire organization's grasp. He literally had the power to end anything he wanted, to bring anyone down if he wanted! It wasn't someone that could be easily messed with, or terrible things might end up happening!
"We have committed a grave mistake…" he muttered. "I must retreat! He probably even has a way to come here…" He quickly took out a black jewel from his arm and a gigantic entity emerged, shrouded in primordial darkness and with two sharp crimson-red eyes.
He ride this gigantic and mysterious beast shrouded in darkness, and the beast roared, entering a sudden space-time wormhole, and disappearing.
FLAAASH!
…
And nothing else was left.
While the Black Eye Organization Boss traveled through this wormhole of darkness, part of his monster's Abilities, he began to think what to do!
"I have to tell my Boss about him, and quickly! If he's really protecting a Fragment, then he must be a Guardian! For some reason, every Fragment always has a predestined Guardian, we have killed many of them before to get to the Fragments, but this one might be the strongest Guardian so far!" he thought. "The boss must know this so he can prepare for the future… No, so we can prepare for whatever this monster will do… However, I am not willing to let him do as he pleases… I will still take that prize from the Tournament; it is of due importance that we acquire the Time Stone!"
The man flew as he thought many things, his plans were unchanged, but his ways of accomplishing them might need a complete rework now that a monster such as Frank was added into the fray of possible foes and threats…
Meanwhile, Gwendolyn glanced at the scene rather calmly, she was used to her husband wrecking shit over with his powers, and even more to see his powerful monsters destroying everything with their ridiculous elemental attacks. After all he mostly had dragons, the strongest types of monsters there were, so they were bound to grow this overpowered after they had reached maturity and were all divine beasts.
"I guess that's it, huh?" said Gwendolyn. "That was way too easy, are these guys really the ones that took over the city?"
Gwendolyn was left quite surprised at the end, not because of her husband's power but because of the weakness of these foes, they had the audacity of attacking them and they didn't amount to anything, Frank's monsters were more than capable of disintegrating them completely without him having to even do anything…
However, Gwendolyn quickly realized Miriam was present, and perhaps seeing so many people dying could have affected the girl's mind, however. But to Gwendolyn's surprise, the girl seemed mentally stable, and she was just amazed by how amazing Frank was and the strength he and his monsters had been hiding this entire time.
"Sir Frank… J-Just how strong are you?" asked Miriam in shock, she was way too surprised about that to care about some thugs dying or whatever.
"How strong I am? Well… It is a secret." Said Frank. "But don't worry, as long as you're at my side, they'll have to go through my monsters and then me before they can touch you, Miriam."
"S-Sir Frank… Sniff… T-Thank you…" cried Miriam. She was still confused over the entire situation, but a sudden hit of reality made her realize how much she would had been in danger if she were alone, whatever they wanted to do to her, it was definitely not good, just thinking about the despair she would had felt and more made her cry, and then realizing the massacre she saw intensified these feelings of sorrow that she was having.
Frank petted Miriam's head as he calmed her down.
"Sorry for showing you that side of me." He sighed. "Everything is fine now. But it seems that you seem to have something within you, some sort of special talent that made people want you for nefarious purposes…"
"M-Me?" asked Miriam. "I have a talent?"
"I think so… I have noticed it as Ryujin grew fast at your side, something that didn't happened with me… He also took a liking on you very fast." Said Frank. "I believe you must have some sort of ability that allows you to be able to be able to befriend and strengthen monsters' way easier than other people… I call that more than just being genius, it apparently comes from your very soul."
"R-Really? I have such a talent?" wondered Miriam. "I never knew…"
"Well, you're really a special girl, we knew for a while." Said Gwendolyn. "That's why today we wanted to do something to help you out. We are worried about your safety after all."
"Yeah, that's right, so let's go to your orphanage." Said Frank.
