BXBX NOVEL Chapter 81 - Declaration
"So I\'ll ask you again Dante,
Can you bear the cost of all those lives that will die as a result of your actions?"
Before Dante could even start thinking about his decision he was interrupted by a painful shriek
"Ahhh!"
looking towards the direction of the scream, Dante could see that the person screaming was Rebecca.
It seemed like Curtis wasn\'t satisfied with the pain she was experiencing and decided that he had to increase the intensity of the technique.
There was no more time to waste. Rebecca couldn\'t stay under such torture, Dante had to make a decision now!
Dante hesitated for a second but on seeing the torture Rebbeca was going through he just knew he couldn\'t sit still regardless of the cost.
"I don\'t care how many lives I risk, As long as I can ensure that I don\'t regret my actions I can bear that cost!"
Now whether Dante could keep his promise and conviction in future was something that would have to take time to see.
but for now, Dante would stick by this moral standpoint.
"hahaha!"
hearing Dante\'s opinion Winton couldn\'t help but laugh
"Such a hypocritical viewpoint.
You really are biased and selfish!"
hearing Winton\'s words Dante started to question if he had really made the right choice.
but before his thoughts could go on, Winton carried on to talk
"But if even my son has the fearlessness to start a war, how on earth could I hide!"
As Winton spoke a brutal smile appeared on his face while he summoned his martial spirit
"Come out, Black Hole!"
Instantly, a black field of absolute darkness started to spread out with him as the centre.
in this field, all light in the area vanished while a devastating storm of air was pulled towards Winton causing his black hair to flutter wildly into the sky.
"Devour."
Hundreds of black tentacles burst out the field of darkness as they rushed towards Curtis.
in front of such overwhelming power, Curtis was stunned!
his body didn\'t even know how to react causing him to freeze in front of Winton\'s attack.
But before Winton\'s even got close to Curtis a Roar seemed to shake the whole of Brightsteel City!
"How dare you!"
"The kinsman Clan must have has gone mad to dare make move against My Blood Moon Palace!"
Elder Mahan was enraged and with a soft strike cut apparat the countless tentacles approaching Curtis.
But Winton wasn\'t intimidated by Elder Mahan in the slightest and confidently replied
"To dare make a move on the Kinsman Clan is already a declaration of war.
Today you have forced us, from now on the Kinsman clan will fight!"
Elder Mahan scowled as he watched Winton\'s bold declaration
"Then it seems like today will mark the end of the Kinsman Clan!"
With those words, Both Winton and Elder Mahan rose into the sky over the people to begin their fight.
Meanwhile, During Elder Mahan\'s and Winton\'s exchange Patriarch Gavin quickly brought Dante to the side and spoke to him
"Dante!
Time is of the essence, Since the Kinsman Clan has decided to go to war we haven\'t done this unprepared.
As the strongest among the younger generation, you have to lead the clan and retreat towards the clan compound.
We\'ve already set up plans for a situation like this, all you need to do is take the rest of the clan back to the Clan compound and activate the defensive formation.
You don\'t have to worry about the slater Clan elders interfering well take care of them for you. The only problem is that you will have to deal with the slater Clan disciples by yourself."
After speaking to Dante, patriarch Gavin rose into the sky and Roared
"All Kinsman Clan elders!
I, Gavin Kinsman, Command you as Patriarch of the Kinsman Clan attack the Slater Clan!"
With this command, Countless Kinsman Clan elders rushed into the sky following closely behind Gavin in a dazzling display of fire and serpents and began charging straight towards the Slater Clan stands!
...
Back on the Battle platform,
Curtis had noticed the strange developments back at the Kinsman clan stands and quickly became alert
Seeing that the Kinsman Clan had launched an attack, Curtis knew he couldn\'t continue to play around with Rebecca anymore.
Although he wished he could exact more pain on her so she could truly experience the humiliation he felt all those years ago, Curtis knew that if he wasted any more time he may truly miss his chance to kill Rebecca and Rid him of his heart demon.
Knowing this Curtis didn\'t want to waste any more time and quickly sent a killing blow toward the brutally bruised Rebecca.
But just before his attack could hit Rebecca a devastating attack came his own way.
"Furious Dragon Claw!"
A red scaly claw rushed towards Curtis\'s palm
"Bang!"
The two terrifying forces met releasing a shockwave throughout the arena
"Dante Kinsman!"
Seeing who interfered, Curtis roared hatefully
Curtis didn\'t have a good impression of Dante at all.
The fact he was from the Kinsman Clan alone was enough for him to hate his guts But when coupled with fact that he was also the number one genius of the Kinsman Clan, his presence pissed him off to no end.
When he first returned to the Slater Clan, instead of people talking about his genius mutated Martial Spirt, the Clan was buzzing with the news of a Kinsman Clan dual spirit awakened!
There were even some fools in the clan that thought that he was even less talented than Dante due to the fact that he only had one Martial spirit!
All these facts together compounded together creating the terrible hate Curtis had for Dante.
"You arrogant little kid.
To think you would be so blind as to challenge a Martial journeyman cultivator while still in the Martial Novice realm
Has the title of Dual spirit awakener gotten to your head?"
Hearing Curtis\'s remarks Dante didn\'t even respond. He just carefully held Rebecca in his arms.
But this didn\'t mean that he felt nothing, instead, a wave of burning anger started to fester deep within Dante\'s soul.
But who could blame him?
Rebecca had been there for him throughout most of Dante\'s life, especially when he was a child.
Due to Dante\'s previously weak physique, he was always weaker than the people on the same level.
And although his status as the son of the first elder saved him from the worst of the bullying, it didn\'t truly stop it.
Defeat
Taunting
mocking
and even being excluded from groups.
Due to his weak strength, these were things Dante had to endure for most of his early life
In a place like the Martial Spirit World, strength was everything.
