Hero of Darkness Chapter 359: Giving Priority

Chapter 359: Giving Priority

After Kahn dislocated Victor's shoulder, the demonkin was frozen stiff because he was still under the effect of the Executioner's Gaze. Their arrival was going completely opposite of what they were initially ordered to do by their factions. And the tables had already turned on them without even knowing.

"Listen dimwits! As long as you're here… you answer to me and not the other way around. If any of you creates problems in any way, I won't be showing any mercy.

And you should know by now how I punish criminals." threatened Kahn to the three semi-saints prodigies. Basically hinting at the People's Court where he often publicly executes his enemies and criminals.

"Now.. I have made arrangements for your accommodations. The commanders from the n.o.ble factions will escort you there. And wait till I call upon you. And know this…

I'm watching you." he said in a ghastly voice.

Under his domineering aura and the two semi-saint commanders who were already stronger than all three of them combined… they had no choice but to swallow down this great punch in the face by Kahn, whom they thought as someone beneath them because he was without a background in their eyes..

But little did they think that he was already a figure that even they couldn't touch without severe consequences.

"Except the entourage from the Mikealson Clan… everyone else is to leave." commanded Kahn.

Under the lead of Commander Stark & Mormont, everyone else left the throne hall and now, aside from Kahn, his generals and the three Mikealsons no one else was present in their ongoing meetings.

Kahn took a golden envelope with the mark of the Mikealson clan on it from his s.p.a.ce ring and his gaze then turned to the Raven Sorceress.

"Thanks for the heads up. However, don't be under impression that I'm going to side with your clan just for this small favor." he spoke.

This was a letter that arrived on the very night when the three top n.o.ble factions sent their announcement decree using the government's name about sending the newbie semi-saints.

He then looked at Veronica… the redhead peak grandmaster who he once fought in the compet.i.tion.

"And tell your father that I still don't have any intentions to become his disciple." he spoke jokingly.

Gasp!

Veronica gasped in surprise and asked..

"He offered you that? When?"

"During the compet.i.tion, before the semifinals." replied Kahn nonchalantly.

"Ah… so that's what second uncle meant by being cautious if we ever fought. He wanted to recruit you since back then." spoke Ka.s.sandra.

"He did more than that. But I'd rather keep it a secret." spoke Kahn jokingly.

He wasn't going to reveal that Stronoff Mikealson offered to make him his son-in-law… that too right in front of his daughter who could've been his wife if he had accepted.

"Well… I don't understand why you warned me that all four of you were actually ordered to work together and try to oppress me?

Seems like a childish move as I see it." asked Kahn.

"I'm more curious to ask why didn't the other 2 semi-saints of the n.o.ble factions back their heirs? And where did you get these many peak grandmasters to begin with?

Three of them are not even their 30s." spoke Ka.s.sandra as she pointed towards Omega, Ronin, Oliver and Jugram.

"Or did you blackmail them or something?" asked Ka.s.sandra again.

"A trickster never reveals his secrets." spoke Kahn as he shrugged his arms.

"So tell me… how do you want me to deal with the matter?

I can't be favoring you guys during your stay. If I'm not wrong, today's incident will soon reach the ears of the Neutral Faction as well. That Celine Armitage will definitely tell them that you didn't choose to partake in the little play." he said again.

Ka.s.sandra continued sipping her tea and replied in a bored tone…

"I have my pride as well… these faction wars, politics and fake display of dominance and authority aren't something I have any interests in." she responded.

"Let them play their little games and keep me out of it.

Unlike them, I'm not here to create trouble for you but use this opportunity to train myself, hone my skills and fight in a real-life battle against that monster tide.

Since we've already exchanged moves… you should know better." spoke Ka.s.sandra.

"The longer your body fights using that summoning skill of yours… the more your mana control, mastery and impact of skills rise, am I right?" asked Kahn.

He remembered that because during the finale, Ka.s.sandra's mastery and control over Brunhilde kept increasing the more they fought. In the last stages, if not for her mana being limited because of her rank, the Valkyrie would've easily decimated him in the battle if it kept on for longer.

Ka.s.sandra nodded after his deduction and asked in response…

"Now tell me your secret. How did you get so strong after our battle? Your growth is simply too suspicious. And you don't even have an Ancient Rank Cla.s.s like me." she queried.

"What can I say… the more I fight stronger opponents, the more my body tends to gain strength after a full recovery." spoke Kahn.

However, Ka.s.sandra rolled her eyes, totally not believing Kahn.

She then gave a coy smirk and spoke.

"All right, then. Keep your secrets."

"If that's all… I'll go along with your father's request in the letter.

I have a special place to station you. I believe you'll be able to practice and hone your skills there given the type of monsters that inhibit that border.

And I won't a.s.sign any commander to oversee you either.

In return… I ask that you three protect that place, the soldiers and normal people.

And do know that I will hold you accountable… punishable by law if you f.u.c.k up things.

So what do you say? "asked Kahn.

Ka.s.sandra nodded back in agreement.

The letter Kahn received days ago was from Damon Mikealson, the sixth stage saint mage who was second only to the faction leader of the Demi-Human faction.

The reason why Kahn was being hospitable to Ka.s.sandra was because the Mikealson Clan declared their intentions to not follow the commands from the faction itself. And for what reasons… he didn't know or care.

Even if they had ulterior motives… he would be able to see through them in time.

After the whole arrangements regarding Ka.s.sandra's posting ended and her group left, Kahn finally returned to his royal bedroom.

Suddenly… his face turned serious as soon as he was finally alone.

"I feel like a storm is approaching."

"I shouldn't delay any longer. I have everything I need and now nothing can stop in my way as long as I'm in Verla.s.sen.

So it's about time I begin practicing." he said in a cautious tone.

The next second, he pulled out hundreds of big and archaic books that he had robbed from the ring of the elven semi-saint mage aka Solomon Elfenheim.

And after a delay of an entire year… Kahn was finally going to prioritize on his most OP Divine Ability… he spoke in a determined tone as his words filled the entire bedroom.

"Time to practice my Dimensional Law."
