Chapter 769: Sacrifices
Jayden pushed open the door and looked inside. He was surprised to see the things inside the big hall.
“So this is the place where all those humans, animals, and invaders were being burned alive. Just what are those big containers? And that liquid, it is quite strange too.”
Jayden walked all around the hall and saw many things. After looking around, he understood a few things.
“So their blood, flesh, and organs were turned into some kind of crystal, and then it was further compressed?” Anna spoke with uncertainty. He stayed there for some time and tried to understand the reason behind all this.
“Wait, there is no way he… the Coven leader was trying to—” Anna suddenly spoke in a shocked tone.
“Did you understand something?” Jayden questioned. Uncovering the truth behind this might help him predict the future problems that the Coven might cause.
“I am not exactly sure b-but there is a very small probability—no, this is just a thought of mine… What if he is trying to…”
Anna paused, then taking a deep breath, continued, “What if he is trying to create the Dimensional stone itself?”
“Wait, is that even possible? Didn’t even the smallest piece have the ability to create an entire planet and even life? Is there really a way to create that type of thing?
And if it really was possible, then why was the Coven so desperate to get their hands on the stone in Emi’s body? None of this is making sense.”
Jayden mumbled as he found himself getting confused each time he found answers to his own questions.
“And there is one more thing, even if that person had killed all these people, it still would not be enough to create a tiny Dimensional stone, though it seems he had been preparing for something big since he didn’t even come out when most of the Coven members were dying,” Anna spoke.
“Sigh, and there is just no way to find him, even the witches don’t know where he lives. He has not been seen in so many years.” Jayden sighed as he teleported back to the upper floor where the humans lay unconscious.
He teleported all of them outside of the building, then he himself disappeared from there. All the people were floating in the air while the animals had already run far away from there.
He came back to the floor where he had just killed so many invaders. Using the Demonic Devouring Arts, he absorbed their energy, even though it wasn’t much. Then he teleported outside of the building too.
“This kind of place should not exist anywhere in the world,” Jayden mumbled. Then, raising one hand, he shot out dragon flames that devoured the entire building.
*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM*
In an instant, everything around it had completely disappeared, and there was a big hole in the ground. The sound of the explosion echoed far and wide.
“Well, for now, I have taken care of this terrorist group, that is enough for now. And I don’t think he is going to move until the tournament is actually about to start,” Jayden mumbled.
Then he threw all those people into the Nether world and flew back towards his company.
While he was flying, he called Kate and told him about the terrorist organization and the people he had just rescued. Now Jayden just needed to deliver these people there, and others would take care of the rest.
‘I guess Night Corp is going to be in the headlines for a while again,’ he thought while his head was filled with unanswered questions.
Soon he arrived on the terrace of the Night Corp office, then he pulled all the people out of the Nether world and just lay them on the floor.
Soon Kate arrived there along with several teams, and then he took all those people away to help them. Then he reported:
“Boss, I have already released the news about the entire incident, and soon I’ll be releasing the identities of all the people you have rescued. This time-” But he was interrupted by Jayden.
“You can take care of the rest, right?” he spoke while looking away.
“Y- Yes Boss, it is not a problem at all. You can leave everything to the best assistant there is,” Kate replied in a self-assuring tone.
“Good, if you do your work well, I might reward you with something really good in the future,” Jayden spoke while patting Kate’s shoulder. Then he just disappeared.
Kate does not know what abilities Jayden has or how strong he is. Heck, he doesn’t even know what Jayden truly is, but he is sure Jayden is very strong and special. He was afraid at first, but after all this time, he had faith in him.
His heart was thumping loudly in joy as Kate went down to finish his work. He wondered just what Jayden might give him.
***
Jayden flew towards his house while thinking about several things. With the approaching tournament, it was obvious various kinds of dangers would be lurking around him and his family.
And even though they have all gotten quite strong after getting those Crystal Hearts, still, compared to the dangers lurking around, they are all gonna need some training.
“Wouldn’t it be nice if they could train in some way? They could even use the Demonic Devouring Arts now to some extent, so it would be great if they can fight some enemies,” Jayden spoke. Then he asked:
“Anna, do you know of any way they could train? While I am busy hunting Zeus, they would also be able to get stronger.”
“Hmmm, I do have something in mind that would greatly help them all without putting them in too much danger,” Anna replied.
“Oh, what is it?” Jayden asked.
“You are in close relation with many races and even have contact with a goddess, right? All those races definitely have captured a lot of prisoners over the past hundreds of years; there are a lot of stronger ones too.
So why don’t you ask the Witch Queen, Goddess Damuda, goblins, and all the others you can, and get all those prisoners and bring them all into the Nether world?
That way, you would be able to create their training ground however you wish, and the entire situation would be under your control. What do you think?”
“That’s perfect, thanks, Anna,” Jayden replied as he smiled. He immediately decided to work on this.
So, changing his direction, he flew towards the Queen’s group to meet the puppet witch. There he could even talk with the Witch Queen, who has a close relationship with a lot of races, so she would be able to help him the most in this situation.
“Sigh, I have been depending on the witches a lot lately. I wonder just what Seraphina wants in return for doing all these favors,” Jayden pondered, and soon he arrived in front of the office.
Like always, he walked directly into the building and headed towards the puppet witch’s office. He pushed open the door and walked inside.
