GDK 525: Don’t like Being Looked down At
As the crowd watched on, Qunoa led Han Shuo towards the most magnificent building in War Demon Valley. Hemanna and Sylph were flushed with happiness when they saw Han Shuo being invited to meet Crosius by Qunoa, a highly influential character in War Demon Valley.
When Han Shuo walked past Sylph, he smirked and shot a somewhat amorous wink at her before saying, “Remember, both you and Hemanna are my women. Wait for me!”
Sylph was not upset by the fact that Han Shuo had said this in front of all those watching eyes. She bashfully nodded and replied in a soft voice, “Okay.”
Han Shuo laughed with great satisfaction, “Good, I like that!”
“Our friend here is indeed a romantic. As long as you are willing to stay in our War Demon Valley, you could easily obtain any woman you wanted, even Lord Crosius’ beloved daughter would not be difficult.” Qunoa laughed then teased, “I think she already approves of it!”
“Uncle, cut it out! That’s nonsense!” a young lady with a pair of white wings and a face as beautiful as that of an angel’s bashfully denied. She stood in the crowd behind Han Shuo.
Han Shuo stared blankly for a moment before turning to look at the beautiful lady floating among the crowd. He was not expecting the lady to actually be the daughter of Crosius. He recalled the warning she had given earlier and tried performing the etiquette of the Abyss realm but did so in a very awkward manner, revealed a brilliant smile, and said, “Thank you for the warning back there.”
“You’re welcome. If you choose to stay in War Demon Valley, I do hope that you could give me some guidance in martial arts. From the battle just now, I witnessed many magical techniques. They truly were amazing!” said the angelic lady.
“Haha, War Demon Valley is a great place. If nothing unexpected comes my way, I believe that I will be staying here. You may look for me whenever you have the time,” Han Shuo invited. He finally turned to look at Brakyah who was still paralyzed on the ground, as his expression turned completely grim in a split second, saying, “Brakyah, you are no match against me. Let me suggest this – know your place, otherwise you will end up dead!”
The moment he finished his sentence, he turned away from Brakyah’s ugly looking face, and softly said to Qunoa, “Sorry to keep you waiting. Let’s go.”
“Don’t fret it! Let’s go!” Qunoa replied with a smile. He proceeded to lead Han Shuo towards the grandest structure within War Demon Valley.
After a few steps, Qunoa turned his head and shot a glance at Brakyah who had finally reassembled his body. When their gazes meet, Qunoa faintly shook his head, seeming to indicate to Brakyah to give up any thoughts he had of retaliation against Han Shuo.
Brakyah regained his footing, and stared at Han Shuo with his cold eyes as he drew further and further away, then glanced at Hemanna and Sylph for a while. In a deep voice, he said to his underlings, “We shall leave.”
When Han Shuo left, Hemanna and Sylph, the two ladies felt a sense of insecurity in their hearts. However, when they thought of Han Shuo’s mighty display earlier they, along with the many others that were watching, realized that Brakyah wouldn’t do anything to them in this place.
Moreover, as long as Han Shuo remained alive, Brakyah wouldn’t dare harm either of them. If Brakyah were to provoke Han Shuo any further, there would certainly be no way he would make it out alive with what little strength he had left. So, even though the ladies felt discomfort when the sinister gaze of Brakyah landed on them, they weren’t too afraid. They both put on arrogant faces and didn’t look Brakyah in the eyes.
“Hmph! I’m going to kill you two bitches sooner or later!” Brakyah shouted menacingly before turning around to leap on his giant demon-faced spider, leaving the area along with his few remaining underlings.
All those in his path spontaneously stepped aside to make way. They didn’t dare show gazes of despise or mockery, on the contrary, they somewhat fearfully bowed their heads in silence. They would only ridicule Brakyah’s incompetence in their hearts but not aloud.
A Raksha who had lost in a battle was still a Raksha! In the Abyss realm where life could be taken at the slightest pretext, without adequate strength, one must by all means not provoke the other. Otherwise, they would have just courted death!
With all the action having dissipated, the crowd gradually dispersed. After such an affair, the hostility between Hemanna and Sylph was mostly gone. The two exchanged glances with somewhat complicated looks on their faces before mixing themselves in the crowd and leaving.
