Chapter 94: [Daves POV] (1/2)

The Battle between 'The SpearHead' VS 'The Home Of The Nine Tails' !!.

.....

Of course, Dave knew he would be distressing his parents. But it should have been egregious to them why the vice leader of the number one guild would leave their villa without a word.

...

Dave's legs heated up as he commenced sprinting towards the capital. The dirt flew behind him as he trod the land. Immediately, within a second, his legs crackled, eventually getting swathed in blue and yellow lightning.

Dave bolted through the pathway. His feet ricocheted of trees and walls, leaving cracks behind.

Dave's God gifted Legendary Seed carried the Legendary perk of... 'The Emperor Of Lightning'.

'Davedevil' was a pretty lame name... and Dave utterly despised it. But there was another name for him which was in the rising, a name pertaining itself to that of a legend, a name that was cool for the likes of the crowd and Dave himself.

It was...

'THE LIGHTNING EMPEROR”

.....

”And there he is”

A tall man donned in his SC-rated Armor and an SC-rated broadsword stabbed onto the ground beside him.

Dave landed a few meters behind and away from the tall man and saluted him, his lightning legs had died down.

”Good Evening Captain!”

Dave wished.

”Ai Ai... Good Evening Dave... It looks like you were too delighted to hear me call”

Cypher, the tall man, chuckled as he walked towards Dave.

”Yes, Captain... It's been almost a year!. A Year!! Since I last smeared demon blood on my hands”

Dave replied, walking towards his Captain.

”Eh?... So you figured it out huh?”

Cypher asked as he took notice of the damp hair stuck to Dave's forehead.

”Jaren!!”

Cypher shouted to the squad of 9 behind him. They were, as Dave guessed, preparing for an attack on the SC-ranked dungeon.

”Yes captain”

A voice followed from the squad.

It was from a man. He was tall, almost equal to that of Dave. His hair was brown and spiky, that they stood out like porcupine needles.

”Give me some fire...”

Cypher asked Jaren, who was one out of his 10 strongest guild members.

”Sure thing”

Jaren smiled as he conjured a fireball on his pinky. The ball of fire, in a breath, grew to a size of a 5 meter tall boulder, and it was just the size which his pinky finger summoned. They could only imagine what his palm could conjure.

”Done... This might be enough for a dryer I guess?”

With a small heave of his pinky finger, he threw the huge fireball at a thrilling speed of 120 mph towards his Captain.

Cypher sidestepped to his left, avoiding the fireball, and grabbed his sword from the ground, and at the same second threw it towards his trusted, vice leader of the guild.

Dave didn't even flinch for a nanosecond when he saw the fireball, which his captain avoided, dash for his head. Instead, Dave hopped on his hind legs, dodging the fireball with a front flip, his hair missed the fire by two centimeters.

Just as he flipped towards his front, Dave, with his left hand, swiftly grabbed the SC-rated sword which was thrown towards him.

*Slice*

Without a glance behind, Dave sliced the huge, destructive fireball with the Legendary Sword, which he wielded in his left hand. The sword was heavy, but not to that extent that the world's third strongest man couldn't handle.

The fireball evaporated to smoke as it got absorbed into the sword. Dave, with his power, thrust the sword into the ground, quenching the absorbed heat into the earth as his foot settled on the ground.

”So that's how you help me dry my hair... Hm... As expected of my captain”

Dave nodded as he touched his hair and found it dry, free of any moisture.

The fireball... it was deadly... deadly enough to dry wet hair within seconds.

”Hahaha... And here I thought your joints had corroded... Well, tough luck I guess, Hahaha”

Cypher chuckled as he patted Dave on his back.

”Heh... Do you think I've been doing nothing this whole time?... How about you start doing office work then... Captain?”

Dave retorted as he shuffled his dry hair, trying to set it up like he usually combs.

”Hehehee... I'm sorry Dave... I am bad at that though!!”

Cypher chuckled.

”I don't give an 'F' about that though Captain. I need you to switch me to the Battle squad. I need to fight!!”

Dave let out his words.

”Okay... Okay!!. That's why I called you out tonight Dave. Don't you see a space free for you behind me *Chuckle*”

His Captain laughed as he walked towards his sword.

Dave's eyebrows perched up as he noticed 9 familiar faces behind Cypher who was now walking towards the sword before him.

”Ahh... Where's Fero?...”

Dave asked his Captain as he realized one out of the 10 'Blades' was missing.

Everyone went tight lipped as Dave asked his question. A curtain of dismay seemed to cover itself over them. Even his Captain seemed to go still when he grabbed his sword which was gouged deep into the ground.

The 10 Blades were a squad of the best combatants in the guild of 'The Spearhead'. They excelled at fighting and dungeon exploration. Dave believed every one of them worthy for their post as one of the 'Blades'.

But he still hadn't understood why he wasn't accepted to the '10 Blades' by his Captain. Even though he knew he was a lot more powerful than all ten of them.
