1246 You want me to become your Slave?
Gargan froze, unable to believe what just happened to him.
32 Divine Stage Cultivators standing in front of him...
Of course, it was clear that these people weren't here to have a friendly bout.
"..."
"..."
There was a heavy silence all over the place.
Gargan silently observed his 'opponents'.
Obviously, he couldn't defeat all of them alone, he was trying to think of something else and the best way he could come up with was,
"Lady Lyriana."
He called out the obvious leader of the place.
"Why go this far? Do you really wish to disturb the balance of the entire world just for the sake of one single human?" He questioned.
Lyriana chuckled, "Hasn't your Lord already disturbed the said balance? And he didn't do it just once either, he had shown his 'strength' to the entire world quite a lot of times,
Bringing 50 Divine Stage Dragons to the Stadium where ExceedoGenesis was supposed to face Ashenhelm. Then bringing the same Dragons to the Human Trials, even going as far as wanting to fight Vampires and Elves together.
And of course, the most recent where 40 Dragons were flying near the Elven Forest with threatening Aura around them.
You did all of this just for the sake of one single human,
You did not expect us to stay silent and endure this blatant disrespect on various occasions, do you?"
"..."
Gargan obviously had no response.
He could only curse in his head, 'Why am I being blamed for the foolish actions that bastard took!?'
As creatures filled with pride, even the Dragons didn't like how they were brought all over these places as henchmen, their pride was constantly hurt, however, there was nothing they could do.
Arcturus was the Strongest amongst them, in the Dragon Continent, his word was the law. None of the Dragons could disobey him, the Divines included.
Now, however, Gargan was the one who was going to face the consequences of his Lord's actions.
Yes, he had already given up, Lyriana's response was enough to tell him that there was no way of talking out of this situation.
A Ruler's pride was hurt. Those subordinates she had gathered weren't for show, they had a motive.
"What are you going to do, Dragon?"
Suddenly, Gargan heard a voice.
It was Nux who was standing behind him.
"You can't possibly face 32 Divine Stage Cultivators, can you?" Nux questioned.
Hearing his question, Gargan's mouth twitched, he actually wanted to rush towards this bastard and end him before accepting his death. However, he soon dropped that idea,
Won't he simply be following Arcturus's orders if he did that?
Thinking about it objectively, wasn't it Arcturus's fault that he was stuck in this position? If he was a competent Leader, why would he find himself stuck in this predicament?
Nux was never his enemy, his son wasn't hurt in any battle, heck, he even supported the boy because of how strong he was!
He actually wanted to get to know him better and even wanted to introduce his Grand Grand Grand Daughter to him, after all, who didn't want a talent like that in his family?
Why would he want someone like Nux as an enemy? The boy obviously had a bright future ahead of him.
The Devil was the same, as someone who defeated all Seven Heroes, he was someone who should be respected and rewarded for his talent, not be chased after by a so-called World Leader!
He did nothing wrong in that battle!
The more Gargan thought about this, the stronger his feeling of not wanting to help Arcturus in his final moment got.
Then suddenly,
"Amaya was right!
You really did not attack me."
Nux's surprised voice was heard.
This time, however, his voice didn't come from where he was standing. This made Gargan frown, he glanced at the direction the voice came from and noticed Nux appearing out of nowhere.
He looked back, looking at the 'Nux' standing behind him and seeing him disintegrate into Golden Dust, he finally realized.
Even if he wanted to kill this man in his last moment, he would have failed.
"Heh."
In the end, Gargan couldn't do anything but laugh out loud and shake his head at his complete defeat.
"I can tell why Arcturus had so much trouble dealing with a 'mere' Semi Saint like you. You are probably the most monstrous Semi Saint I have ever seen in my life, Devil."
It was glaringly obvious that the one standing in front of him wasn't Nux, but the Devil. After all, how could a Human have Clones, it was an Incubus's ability.
"You don't come in front of me even when you have so many strong Cultivators by your side, You are cautious, it is a good trait. Do not change even when you become stronger than you currently are."
Gargan nodded, acting like a wise Grandpa who had seen everything in the world.
Nux was slightly taken aback by the Dragon's response. Amaya did say that all the Dragons might not be satisfied by how Arcturus tackled this matter and wouldn't remain on his side when everything seemed to be over,
But...
He didn't think this Dragon would switch sides so quickly.
"Gargan."
Nux called out. free webnov el.com
"What is it?" Gargan questioned, not minding how a junior was calling him by his name, Nux had done enough to earn the right to do so.
"Do you think it is worth it?"
"What?"
"Dying here I mean.
Don't you think it's a waste for someone like you to die here?
Shouldn't a Divine Stage Cultivator's death be meaningful?
In your case, however, people wouldn't even know how you died. That is of course, if you continue with the usual script."
"Haaa."
Gargan couldn't help but shake his head as a big smile appeared on his face,
"You want me to switch sides and become your ally?" He questioned.
"I don't see a point in killing a Divine Stage Dragon. It would definitely affect Yrniel's overall strength."
"Heeh? But aren't we Incomplete Divine Stage Cultivators just a bunch of rejects?" Gargan questioned with a smile on his face.
"Please don't take my words to heart, Gargan.
I only said that to emotionally affect Arcturus. I do not actually mean that, Incomplete or not, reaching the Divine Stage isn't something just any cultivator could do."
"Your tongue can be quite polite if you want it to, eh?
You think you would have much fewer enemies if that tongue of yours kept being that polite?"
"Maybe." Nux shrugged.
"It doesn't really matter though, does it?
I turned out to be just fine, no?"
"Hahahaha!"
Gargan laughed out loud.
After talking to this bastard, he realized that he was liking him more and more. This amount of arrogance... even the Dragon Lord wasn't his match.
"What do you want me to do?"
He questioned.
He followed Arcturus for so long and the result of that was him standing at the brink of death.
Why not switch sides and get another chance at life, even if he was caught later on, the worst that can happen is him dying.
At the very least, he would still get to keep his life for a while longer.
And who knows? He might see something extremely surprising.
Something that would open up his horizons and change the way he looks at the world.
After all, if it was this man... then it is very much possible.
"Gargan Fireclaw, are you willing to be my Slave?"
Nux questioned with an authoritative tone.
Gargan, however, narrowed his eyes,
"What...?"
He couldn't believe what he was hearing.
Nux, however, didn't say anything and stared at the Dragon, waiting for his answer.
"You want me to become your Slave?"
Nux nodded.
"I believe it would be better to die here, no?"
Gargan, however, laughed out loud,
"You think someone like you has what it takes to become my Master?"
"Do I not?"
"A few thousand years later, maybe, but as you are right now, you do not."
Gargan replied.
"Gargan, I am not the one on the Death Doors here." Nux chuckled.
"That has nothing to do with it. The only reason I am in this position is because you have all these people standing behind you. Heck, even with all of them, you still do not have the courage to appear in front of me.
You can ask them to kill me if you wish, but I have no interest in becoming your subordinate."
"You won't change your opinion even if I say I will kill your entire Fireclaw Family?"
"They would all rather die than have their honor toyed with."
"How is it any different than following Arcturus? I would like to believe that I am the better side here." Nux commented.
"Arcturus stays where he resides, while you are on the run,
Which one do you think is on the better side?"
"And you think I don't have what it takes to unroot that bastard?" Nux questioned with a playful smile on his face.
