Book 7, Chapter 80: Lord of Storms (2/2)
For just a h Danba’s eyes
Danba, however, quickly retracted his gaze and calmly said, “You fool even if it were true, is there a difference between being enslaved by the hu enslaved by the Gods? But if orshi+p the Gods, then we can at least obtain their protection What can those huive us?”
Gurr helplessly lowered his head “You’re right, Your Majesty But”
“But what?”
Gurr hesitated a ers value our freedom above all else, and we refuse to be made subordinate to anyone else Your Majesty, I still prefer our ruler to be one of our kind The Gods are existences far above us, and all they care about is securing their faith There is no real incentive for them to care about our affairs”
“Is that so,” Danba sighed “That does hted to hear this “Does thatto listen to my advice, Your Majesty?”
Danba calmly replied, “You make so much sense that I simply can’t keep you around anymore”
What?
Gurr was stunned by Danba’s words
Then, an indescribable pressure burst forth from Danba Gurr stared at hi place before his very eyes
Danba’s figure slowly expanded to fill his entire vision
“Agh gh” Gurr clutched at his chest as he fought to breathe
He wanted to say soround before he could choke the words out
His eyes were still ith disbelief
He never would have iined that his own ruler would actually attack hilanced coldly down at Gurr’s corpse
His feelings were anything but sincere
Then, he dismissively waved his hand “Take him away”
But there was no response
Hhtly
He spun around, scanning his surroundings
The dancing wos were now deathly still
Danba confidently called out, “Your spatial isolation techniques are quite impressive, Brother Su Since you’re here, why not coly stepped out of thin air
Pity briefly flickered through Su Chen’s eyes as he glanced at the corpse on the ground “He served as your trusted general for sohim must have been a shanored my commands and infiltrated human territory in an attempt to stir up chaos and incite war between our two races He deserved nothing better”
“He was probably just thinking of the Ravagers’ best interests,” Su Chen said with a regretful sigh
“Oh?” Danba seemed to be amused by Su Chen’s words “His death should have s sympathetic for hier, a native of the Origin Realm As for you I don’t even knohat you are anymore”
Danba re about?”
“You know exactly what I’ about, but I just don’t knohat you’re after In fact, I don’t even knoho you are Right nohat I want to know is, when did you beco this, Danba’s expression darkened
He gazed at Su Chen for sohter “So you eventually discovered the truth, did you? Well, that’s not exactly surprising My recent actions really have not been befitting of ers’ leader But it sounds like you think o to take over this shell You’re wrong!”
“You’re wrong!”
“You’re wrong!”
“You’re wrong!”
As these words echoed throughout the palace, Danba’s face contorted as he began to unleash a shockingly powerful aura
Danba’s body began to grow in size as his aura surged By now, the light radiating from his body was so intense that it was impossible to directly look at him anymore The majesty of a God filled the sky
Danba’s voice thundered, “There was no takeover Fro, I have been Danba, and Danba has been me! I am the Lord of Storh
So it was as he had suspected Divine will had descended upon Danba when he was born, creating a Ravager genius
Compared to the Human Ancestor, however, this Lord of Storms seemed to be much more restricted in his actions For instance, Danba had not fully awakened hisHe had just been a se of how to inherit the immense power of the Gods
This wasn’t because the Lord of Storh, but rather because the cracks in the Barrier had been too small back then Furthermore, he did not have the help of the Hued to successfully infiltrate the Origin Realm with a projection of his will
And because he was the projection of a God, he naturally did not care about the fate of the Ravagers
All he had ever considered was how the Gods would fare
The only thing left that Su Chen didn’t understand was
He asked, “If you are the incarnation of the Lord of Storet so close toover these past few years?”
“Kill you?” The Lord of Stor, “You overestimate your abilities, Su Chen While I admit that you are quite capable, did you really think that you could prevent the Gods frooal was never you fro!”
“Not me?” Su Chen was taken aback
Suddenly, he felt as if he had been struck by lightning
He cried out, “So you’re searching for him!”
