Chapter 649 - 594: Fariyas Charm (1/2)
The moderately wide imitation Dark Cloud slowly rose into the air and was about to piece through the planet's atmosphere only for three domineering presence to rush from below. The one leading was a middle-aged man wearing simple black clothes, he had hawk-like eyes and seemed to be stronger than the other two.
Arthur recognized one of them, which led him to easily guessing the identity of the person in the middle, who was undoubtedly human.
In the end, they were discovered by Warden Habs was step too late as the prisoners had already escaped and were about to leave the planet. Esco and Vyncent were nervous, Shen Shen curiously looked at the Warden and the two behind him while Zaarae only frowned but didn't say anything. As for the mythical beings, they dutifully stood side by side and were prepared to engage in battle if necessary.
”Halt!”
Unsurprisingly, the first to talk and stop Arthur was the self-righteous Erandil, who unleashed his angelic aura in an attempt to forcefully stop the escapees. His eyes wandered around then locked onto Fariya, who was expressionlessly standing next to Arthur, unbothered by anything.
”Master, would you let me the honor, please?”
Since the moment she met him, Fariya hated the angel's guts and always wanted to teach him a lesson. Now that she got stronger thanks to the boost granted by Arthur, she was confident enough in her abilities, furthermore, Arthur wouldn't stand still in case things went awry, or so though the succubus.
Arthur glanced between the angel and the succubus before subtly nodding his head in acceptance. The moment she received her approval, Fariya disappeared, her figure leaving a beautiful purple energy in her path.
She attacked so suddenly and swiftly, her hands rapidly swung down a black whip, which instantly struck the unsuspecting Erandil. The poor angel was sent flying below, his thick white armor now had an ugly dent. In fact, the force behind her blow reached his internal organs and caused him to spit a bit of blood.
Seeing Fariya's assault, neither Habs nor the man on his left acted. One was looking at Zaarae while the other was examining Arthur with an interested look.
Habs' unfamiliar companion had vertical pupils and golden eyes, like a snake, his ears were a bit long like an elf's and his body was inexplicably thin. This was the chief guard of the fourth level and a member of the Ratika Race, an odd person named Carpentine.
”I didn't expect that amongst that famous Arthur MoonStar is amongst the new prisoners. Forgive my late introduction.”
Habs chuckled as he spoke to Arthur, appearing quite relaxed and unbothered by the fact that a few prisoners escaped, including the Parasite Empress.
”To think that the Warden knows of my name. I'm flattered.”
”How can I not? You and you're army of undead are the talk of everyone in the multiverse for the period. Now that I had a good look at you, I can say with certainty that the rumors were not wrong. Actually, your power wasn't given enough credit.”
Arthur looked at the Warden, who was smiling at him without a care in the world. He tried appraising him but it didn't work at all, just like with Zaarae, however, he could feel the difference in their strengths. The man was no ordinary human, he was beyond the Exalted God Realm, an entity that should not be trifled with. Even with Zaarae present, the parasite still felt a bit of invisible pressure.
