Chapter 1838 Disgust
"I hear your Humming Sparrow Clan is quite good. How unfortunate, I promised Chenglei the Sparrow Legion, but it seems you really did come alone."
Four glared at Dyon. "Even if you know about this connection, it wasn't them I was referring to. Do you believe someone who can gain my acknowledgement despite being so weak is a normal person? The person you shouldn't have offended is my Kaori!"
"Is that so? I seem to have a habit of offending weak bodied geniuses. The last one who offended me had her Clan run out of the tower quadrants…
"Don't tell me, let me guess. Along with Aritzia Sapientia, Kaori Void is one of the top 3 most intelligent minds of the Mortal Plane. I should be quaking in my boots waiting for their revenge, is that correct?"
Four's eyelashes trembled, suddenly feeling an insurmountable aura coming from this man kneeling by her injured body.
Suddenly, Dyon's black mask sunk into his face, revealing a visage handsome beyond words. Unfortunately, the dark, sinister light in his eyes forced those who gazed upon him to be unable to appreciate it, they would instead be filled with an endless ocean of dread.
The trembling of Four's body grew fiercer. That face, she knew it too well. No, anyone of the tower quadrants knew it.
How was this possible?! How could it be him?!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNo, if this is true…
Tears of rage and unwillingness filled Four's eyes. Her emotions were so fierce that the veins coursing through her body turned a deep black, making her once beautiful features turn ghastly and unsightly.
Unfortunately, Dyon was here alone. In this Gate, there was only him, her, and a silently waiting Saru and Brahman in the distance. Even the Shruti Army had already left to begin slowly conquering Kitsune territory. There was no one else to witness this scene before her.
"Let me tell you something before you become my Dragon's prized corpse puppet." Dyon's piercing gaze bore into her body. "I don't know who made that list of genius minds, but they should consider remaking it. Don't you think it's embarrassing that two of your top three fell to me because they weren't smart enough…?"
A deep chuckle left Dyon's lips. "… If they were as intelligent as you all say… Shouldn't they know not to offend me?"
Dyon's finger touched Four's forehead. She instantly felt that her soul was being ripped from her body, but there was nothing she could do to fight it.
Her last thoughts were ones of despair.
If the face she saw was real and not an illusion, her beloved Kaori stood no chance.
For him to grow so fast… No one stood a chance…
...
Dyon swept Four's corpse into his spatial ring after scouring the information in her mind.
It seemed that the reason the Sparrow Legion hadn't come was because there was no Sparrow Legion in the tower quadrants at all.
Four was actually a Princess of not the Beast Protection Association, but of the Transcendent Beast Alliance.
Though the Dhino Subspecies controlled 50% of the Transcendent Beast Alliance, they obviously weren't a cohesive whole. They were, after all, a subspecies, not a Clan. There were many different cultures and goals within their masses.
As such, there was room for many other powerful Clans to exist. One such Clan was the Humming Sparrow Clan where Four originated from. They could be considered one of the least powers of the Alliance, controlling about five or so quadrants alone.
It was a shame that Kaori overestimated Dyon.
What he said was true. In order to keep a low profile, although BPA had cards in almost every quadrant, and knew where the universe spirits of most of them were already, they hadn't made a move to conquer them just yet.
This made sense. After all, the Transcendent Beast Alliance was the weakest of the five outer powers, just a margin weaker than the Devil Quadrants. Though suddenly taking over these territories would net them a massive boon of Faith, it would also alert the other Outer Quadrants, giving them a reason to come together and split their territory amongst themselves.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThough the tower quadrants might be ignorant to the true roots of BPA, but outer quadrants weren't so stupid. The only reason they had let it go to this point was because the Transcendent Beast Alliance did have a right to protect their fellow beasts, but that didn't mean they'd be allowed to go as far as strengthening themselves with their territory.
Due to this, Kaori was careful about Faith and played his cards sparingly. In the end, he decided it was safest to battle within the Gates instead of potentially being met with Faith stronger than they could handle. He was essentially hedging for the possibility that their opponent was also from the outer quadrants.
Unfortunately, his bet was incorrect. Had Dyon had to fight against Four's Faith, even though he now controlled 131 universes, he would still fall very short.
One had to remember that he technically only had the Faith of 98 universes right now. In addition, though the Transcendent Beast Alliance only had Moon Grade Faith and not the Sapientia's Planet Grade Faith, and were also an Alliance instead of a single Clan, Four was a Peak Dao Realm expert, not a Higher Celestial like Oshire.
All in all, Dyon was correct. Technically, Kaori's choice was the smartest. But, he made the same mistake Aritzia had except this time, in the opposite direction. While the latter underestimated him, the former overestimated him!
Wasn't it too sad to have such 'genius minds' make such fundamental mistakes?
This was all essentially to say that Four's Sparrow Legion wasn't here because she wasn't technically meant to be here either.
She was a genius of the Humming Sparrow Clan. At less than 20 000 years old, she had stepped into the 11th Dao Realm. They had more than just high hopes in her, they felt like her genius could raise their Clan to the level of the Sapientia.
Unfortunately, she fell in love and died here for a man who didn't blink twice in abandoning her.
The disgust in Dyon's heart spilled over.
