Chapter 513: The Dark More Tribe (1/2)
Aki learned from his grandson that Lord Tang was visiting the Dark More Tribe. As someone who made the deal between the Dark More Tribe and the Dark Tribe, he was aware that the visit was not just a simple visit.
'Should I go there or just stay here? Lord Tang must be displeased that I passed the Dark More Tribe…' Aki was in a dilemma. After a slight hesitation, Aki decided to go there. He might do something for his lord to get a favorable impression from his lord. He had decided that since he was tied to a new Master, might as well do it wholeheartedly.
Aki then rushed toward the Dark More Tribe's location. He rushed there but it was still too late upon seeing the trace of frost aura around at the entrance toward the village of the Dark More Tribe. The Dark More Tribe was living underground and he was standing in front of the hole toward the village.
Aki let out a sigh as he was too late. If he arrived before the clash, he might persuade the Chief of the Dark More Tribe to join the empire. The rat beastmen entered the tunnel, and he found the wall and ceiling were freezing. He could feel a sharp decrease in the temperature, it was still bearable for him.
'Lord Tang does not have the Frost Elemental Power, does that mean it's the woman?' Aki speculated in his head. When he returned to the Pallarmur Tribe, only a woman who held the ceremony and his grandson were there. Another woman was missing. That meant this was that woman's doing.
The rat beastmen picked up his pace and soon he arrived at the actual village of the Dark More Tribe. He could hear the fight was not over yet. Aki rushed into the underground space where the Dark More was living. He saw his Master was standing over there, watching the fight while the cat was gnawing the dead Dark More next to his feet. Lauri stood next to Lord Tang, watching the fight as well.
As he predicted, the Frost Elemental Power originated from the woman. The Chief of the Dark More Tribe, Firon, was fighting against the woman. Even though Lord Tang did not look back at him, he knew that Lord Tang was aware of his arrival. Aki approached Lord Tang, as he was about to reach Lord Tang, The Chief of the Dark More Tribe noticed his arrival too.
”Elder Aki! You come! Help me to fight them, they are declaring a war against the Dark Tribe!” Firon yelled for help. There was hope in his voice.
Aki let out a sigh, he shook his head, ”I am sorry, Firon. However, I am no longer the Elder of the Dark Tribe anymore. I am a servant of Lord Tang,” The rat beastmen knelt toward Tang Shaoyang, ”I have assigned my children to find the Dwarves, My Lord. You can expect the result within a month at most.”
”AKI! YOU!” A furious roar came out from the Chief of the Dark More Tribe. He could not believe that the one who persuaded him to join the Dark Tribe was now betraying the Dark Tribe.
”You should not look away when you fight!” Ashley took the chance and appeared behind Firon. She raised her sword and stabbed it at the back of Firon's body.
”[Earth Fur]!” The brownies fur hardened, but it was futile. The sword broke the defensive skill and pierced through the fur into the flesh toward the chest. The sword fully pierced through Firon's thick body.
