‘Really, blessed by heavens,’ seeing the stats which were really proof of the young man’s potential to become the strongest, it just made the image of that individual even more clear in Ryuk’s eyes.
Just like, how Edward had awakened his kundalini since birth, but due to a lack of any training in that direction, he wasn’t able to upgrade his level, while Ryuk received it from someone else.
Both were different.
One was gifted by heavens and other was by his destiny.
“….Lady Drishti, we would like to inform you about some unknown intruder infiltrating our ship a moment ago,” the man, seeing Ryuk Devereaux lost in his thoughts, added with frustration of Edward, standing beside him, he directly went on the topic.
“But isn’t Abernathy ships have higher defense mechanism?” Drishti inquired with her eyes slightly widened as she feigned surprise with her eyes glancing at the young man, who kept a blank face, hidden behind the black masquerade mask.
‘Damn it!’ the man wasn’t naive to not notice that subtle amusement inside Drishti’s gaze, clearly indicating that this was all just a play for her.
Yet, there wasn’t anything he could do, except adding further, “Though I would appreciate if you tried to find the intruder or…” the man glanced at the five onyx-black battleships of the Devereaux family, with a narrowed gaze adding, “Else, you can provide us one of those ships as compensation—”
Badump!
‘!?!’
‘What was that?!’ the man’s eyes widened due to suddenly feeling a sharp pain inside his heart as if it was sliced by a very sharp sword intent, directly tearing through his bodily aura and cutting his heart in two parts.
‘Who was it?’ the man’s eyes swiftly moved towards Drishti, who had a smile of knowing everything, then on the young man whose narrowed eyes revealed same surprise, finally settled on the last woman.
‘?!’
And there he felt the connection of that sword strike which was a manifestation of mind sword at its weakest level.
Normally any normal human would get his heart really sliced but due to the man’s strength, he just felt a feeling of being sliced.
There were only three individuals here, two women and a man at the center.
“Though you have already known about her, let me introduce you again. She is the owner of those ships,” said Drishti while pointing towards Ryuk, with being amused by all this situation, through which she was already seeing what was happening here.
In reality, she was at most right side, then it was Regina, then it was Ryuk and finally Esme.
But for Edward and his father, it was only three individuals with Regina replaced with Ryuk—clearly meaning that the Esme wanting to protect Ryuk from sudden attack had used Regina as a meat shield while also morphing Ryuk’s expressions, even though words he said were same but slightly morphed tone.
A situation which will seem normal for outsiders but only her eyes knew, where this whole thing was leading to.
Let alone evidence, if in rage, both father and son duo even attacked them, everyone will only think that it was one-sided rage from Abernathy’s side.
And no strong beings will say anything regarding Esme Tenebri using mind illusion even after knowing it.
Afterall, Who will want to offend the strongest entity backing her up, for two dead individuals?
So, at least battle was inevitable, and her mind was feeling satisfied already guessing the outcome.
“…Regina Devereaux,” the man spoke the name of the woman in front of his eyes, wearing a white mask while holding a black sword, her eyes filled with sharp sword intent.
“Really, nothing less is expected from one of the commanders of the Devereaux family,” the man’s eyes were gauging the whole situation, trying to formulate a plan to somehow escape this place or at least, by sacrificing a few of his own men, secure his stubborn son’s life.
‘Did Master lose his mind?’ One of the individuals standing in the background, wearing a white cloak with light emerald eyes, nudged the other beside him, trying to inquire with a secret comradeship language.
‘Yes, like son, like father,’ replied the individual who just got nudged, looking towards both of their higher-ups, Edward Abernathy and their lord, who was calling that black-masked young man the Commander of the Devereaux family.
If it wasn’t for the orders binding them, they would have tried to convince their lord to not offend Ryuk Devereaux for some time, clearly understanding the situation they were in.
Being in battles for more than their own life, all of those individuals knew that this place would be their graveyards within a few moments, due to already feeling more than 170 sharp gazes from powerhouses at LEGENDARY level.
It may appear that such powerhouses were very common, but in reality, there were only 654 individuals in the whole Abernathy family above EPIC rank.
Clearly indicating that right now, they were about to go against a whole major family’s main army, if a battle occurred—naturally, no one wants it.
But they will still follow orders of higher-ups.
“… Isn’t it funny that I don’t even know your name?” Regina gazed at the man, who even though was the brother of the head of the Abernathy family, hadn’t achieved anything exceptional in his life.
Of course, he would have definitely done something; it’s not like his Zenith rank was just a fluke, and Regina was aware of it. But her work here was just to provoke that man.
“Hey, what are you doing?”
Pulling Regina from her words was a voice from beside her, slightly tilting her head to look beside the young man standing between them, her eyes meeting with golden pupils of a tilted woman.
Both looked at each other, with the young man in the middle, blankly standing without saying a word.
“What happened?” Regina inquired, not caring about others seeing Esme, since she had camouflaged her presence from the moment they arrived here.
“Why are you provoking that man?” Esme inquired with narrowed gaze, not wanting to see Regina do something that would cause harm to the man beside her.
Technically, Esme had facaded the image of the young man with Regina, and if, due to her provocation, that man attacked her, then instead of Regina, Ryuk would have to counter it.
Since the man was looking at Ryuk while thinking he was Regina.
“Isn’t it what you are trying to do too?” Regina inquired with a raised eyebrow, not understanding that their main objective for all this was provocation to begin with.
“Yes, but not by risking his safety,” Esme replied with narrowed eyes, trying to convey that the chances of a sudden attack could be fatal.
And additionally, she needed some time to read complete information from Edward’s brain.
Indeed, right now, she was trying to read Edward’s mind.
‘Again?..’ Turning her eyes towards him, whose mind was getting adapted to her ability, causing the memories to become blurred.
Yet, she kept increasing her strength to the level to clearly see the image of the memory inside his mind, appearing blurred with two individuals standing.
Finally, Esme increased the strength of her ability to see the clear image of one of them.
‘?!’
“Is that him?”
