Asura Conqueror

Chapter 29: Kellar City

They landed, called a cab, and went to their hotel, while the ones under the effect of 'Army Manipulation' did the same and are not too far behind.

Marcus already told Eva about 'Army Manipulation' and the ones under it will act as their bodyguards.

He explained to Eva that 'Army Manipulation' is like a racial ability and only the ones with royal blood can use it. Aside from being a royal, The child should undergo a ritual when they are born or at least when they are below the Commander stage. Marcus already underwent the ritual right after he was born because his mother had no problems with it.

He also told her that once the person is affected by 'Army Manipulation', he or she is totally under the control of the caster. They follow any command they were ordered to do. Though they still do normal things like eating.

One of the biggest perks is that they could never disobey their master and they could never betray their master. The caster can also read their thoughts if they are close enough. They could also communicate via mind link.

Eva was amazed by what it can do, "Little bro, that spell, I mean ability is mindblowing. I mean, for other people they look just like normal citizens."

Marcus nodded while laughing "It sure is."

"But you should also be careful in using it, little bro. You might lose yourself in it and start doing atrocious acts." Eva reminded.

"Don't worry Big Sis. I keep reminding myself every day not to stray from my initial path." Marcus doesn't want to get lost in power. He is a teen on the path of revenge. The temptations that whisper in his head are numerous.

They talked and checked the things around them as they rode in a car. It's not much different from Levi City. It looks pretty much the same, aside from good-looking cars being a lot more common.

The same with Levi City, only cars are allowed to fly in most areas.

They arrived in front of their hotel at around 6 pm. They've already booked 2 rooms online so there is no more hassle. It is also close to the spaceport which makes it ideal.

They went to Marcus' room. After going in the door and stepping inside, Eva went directly to the stone to continue cultivating, training her 'Holy Flames', and finally doing some alchemy.

The hotel was luxurious, to say the least. It was equipped with a lot of the best furniture available in third rate countries.

Nexus turned to Marcus "I think she is getting addicted to training. She should also rest."

"She already set certain goals for herself. Wait, you're older, shouldn't you understand these things better." Marcus went to the kitchen. He has time to spare before going to the Krimz mansion so he's going to practice cooking.

Nexus sighed. "I think my emotions are getting the better of me." He walked towards the couch and turned on the tv.

"Nexus," Marcus who was holding eggs called out "So about you and the catgirl thing,"

"Nope. No catgirl can even compare to Eva" Nexus said while switching channels.

Marcus chuckled, "I really thought you could only fall in love with cats or cat-like creatures."

"Hold it right there carrot hair!" Nexus turned his head towards Marcus. "That's just racist, pure racist."

"Is racist really the word?" Marcus cracked the eggs and dropped the whites and yolks onto the pan.

"I believe so. If I'm wrong, may the Asura Empire smite me down, or what's left of it." Nexus grinned. "Before you get mad, remember you poke fun at me too."

Marcus stopped as looked towards Nexus. His vermillion-colored eyes glowed.

"Jesus, you're easily ticked off. I'm sure as a prince you've been taught how to control your temper. To not show your true emotions on the surface and stuff like that. What's with the outburst." Nexus laughed.

"I know. It's just, that topic isn't something I want to hear." Marcus glared at Nexus before going back to what he was doing.

Nexus didn't bother Marcus anymore as he continued to watch tv.

----------------

Marcus changed his outfit and put on the ranked 2 red robe together with the mask. He walked towards the door and slowly opened it.

Loud mumblings could be heard together with a few one-word screams every now and then. The room looked like a dungeon made of stone. Uneven flooring, steel bars stood erect at the side to service the cells. Deep pits could be seen in some areas.

Marcus calmly walked towards a person who was chained.

The person looked up, his hair disheveled, eyes swelling. He looked pitiful but Marcus looked at him with disdain.

"It's your lucky day. You'll get to see your family again." Marcus walked towards the table and flipped through the pages of the book that was laying there. He stopped at a certain page and then headed towards the cabinet. He grabbed a few things and went back to the table.

"You-you're letting me go?" Nikolo, the pitiful-looking person asked. There was a slight tinge of happiness in his voice.

"Yes." Marcus flatly answered as he shook a tube that had liquid inside and placed a needle through the opening.

Nikolo's eyes lit up. "Thank you!"

He was already thinking about how to tell his father about this man.

"You're welcome. Now before I let you go, I need to do a few adjustments." Marcus spilled a few drops of liquid in the tube to a bucket that had normal water. The color started to change.

He placed the tube on a tube rack and carried the needle and bucket as he slowly walked to Nikolo.

"What? What do you me-- AHHH!" Nikolo didn't get to finish his question. Marcus grabbed his tongue and stabbed the needle on the dorsal surface. It easily pierced through.

After a few seconds, the tongue started to turn grayish. Nikolo couldn't speak properly anymore. Marcus placed the needle aside and dipped Nikolos hands and feet in the bucket. The skin also turned grayish.

Marcus isn't a big fan of doing these kinds of stuff unless a person really angers him. But after seeing what this guy did, the atrocities he committed, it made him want to throw him into hell. The emotions of an asura are really something.

Nikolo didn't feel any pain. He just felt numbness on the parts that turned gray.

Marcus wasn't done. He had to make sure there were no loose ends.

His hand turned red. A vermillion colored string shot out of Marcus' index finger. It went straight to Nikolos's chest and disappeared.

"You will not remember my face. All you'll remember is that you were experimented on by someone wearing a black cloak." Marcus slowly spoke.

Nikolo nodded.

He had to do this in case someone who knows how to pry into a person's memories appears.

Marcus knocked him out and broke the bond. The vermillion colored string in his soul disappeared. He stood up, grabbed the bucket, and burnt the needle. Then walked towards the table to get the tube. After that, he went to one of the holes and poured the contents of both the bucket and tube in there.

A loud scream could be heard.

------

'I really need to get someone to manage the chamber' Marcus said as he went out of the hotel, wearing his usual black long-sleeve and smart trousers outfit. His next stop is the Krimz Manor. It's currently 10 in the evening and he was 100% sure that there are a few rank 1 Commanders in their family mansion.

He rode a cab and stopped at a shop that was pretty close to the place.

He first went in and had a cup of coffee. Then he started walking towards the mansion.

---------

Somewhere on the first floor of the mansion.

"Mrs. Krimz, we can't do this. Your husband might find out." A muscular man said.

Mrs. Krimz, the mother of Nikolo seductively smiled. Her bare body alluringly gestured to the man in front of her. "You don't have to worry about him. He's asleep, I drugged his water. Even if you ram me hard and make me shout, he still won't wake up. Someone has to really shake him if they want to wake him."

The man could barely stop himself. When he heard her say that she drugged her husband, he immediately pounced.

--------

Marcus who was going around the mansion stopped. His red robes were not really the best for sneaky operations like these.

He heard voices in one of the rooms. He already bypassed the 3 commanders guarding. They couldn't sense him unless he made some loud noises. You could say that they were not well trained.

He looked through the window and saw a man and a woman naked. Marcus heard them talk. When the woman finished, the man immediately dove towards her.

'This is just sad.' Marcus said as he went to get Nikolo out of the stone.

The 22-year-old man appeared beside him, he glanced at Marcus, but Marcus made him look forward. His eyes froze. He could clearly see who the woman was. But before he could react, Marcus already placed him back in the stone.
