Chapter 802 Final - Zoemi Unleashed (Part 2)
The capital of the Barbaraica nation was a grand port city with the glorious mountain range being visible from the few highest buildings far in the distance.
Similar to most prosperous port cities, it was full of hustle and bustle of the lively commerce – still, the commotion at the dock was even bigger than usual with the arrival of a certain massive ship.
And not any ship – the warship straight from the Heavenly Star Nation navy.
The small group of elite soldiers led by a foreign relation minister was trembling in their boots at the sight of the people walking off the ship.
"E-esteemed head of the Great Ram sect... Esteemed head of the Raging Bull sect... H-Heavenly Guardian B-Bevan...! W-Welcome...!"
Despite years of experience with handling foreign emissaries, the Barbariacca nation's minister had a problem with keeping his composure as the few first marital artists stepped onto the Barbariacca nation's soil.
"We are always happy to see our sworn friends from overseas but... if I might be so forward... W-wasn't the esteemed head or the vice head of the Heavenly Archer sect the ones who would always visit...?"
The minister fought with his own jaw so that his teeth wouldn't chatter as he spoke and he asked, hoping that the marital artist would just laugh or scoff and say that the Heavenly Archer sect's patriarch was just taking a bit long and would show up at the deck of the warship at any moment...
"Daniel and Marcus are busy with some domestic affairs. A little bit of a cleanup operation is going on, you see, my good man."
The dark-brown-haired martial artist with gray eyes waved his hand dismissively and assured him.
"Lord Bevan... is... is it something serious...?"
The minister flinched feeling cold sweat pouring down his back like a waterfall – although he still took a few shy steps towards one of the Twelve Heavenly Guardians to ask him a question in a conspicuous voice.
"Huh? No~! Ahahaha! Not at all!"
Bevan raised his brows in surprise before bursting out into cheerful laughter.
"I-is that so...!"
Minsiter breathed out in relief, maybe a bit too obviously...
"It can't be that serious if we got this old timer coming here with us, after all!"
"...huh...?"
Bevan added while chuckling and pointing with his thumb back at the wardship, making the minister go wide-eyed.
There, at the deck and about to walk down and join the rest of his countrymen stood a rather friendly-looking man with white hair and black eyes wearing a simple set of clothes... and an apron...
"This...! This is...!"
The Barbariacca nation's minister's eyes bulged out as he pointed at the white-haired man with his trembling hand.
"Oh, that's right! Of course, you've met him before, my good man! That's right! Feast your eyes on the strongest martial artist, the one who mastered all twelve-star powers – Heavenly Star Warrior, William."
Bevan laughed with satisfaction, firmly putting his arms over the minister's shoulders while reaching his hand towards William.
"Now, since we've made ourselves clear enough... why don't we talk about the people originally from the Heavenly Star Nation who moved to your country."
"!!!"
Bevan tilted his head and his gaze became ice cold and piercing like a spear, causing the minister to freeze in place in an instant.
"You see, back in the Heavenly Star Nation we really cherish the familiar bond among the sect members, and even when the members are moving far away both sides like to check on each other from time to time. But guess what? For some reason, eeeeeevery single sect member who decided they wanted to settle in a foreign land suddenly cut off contact with their respective sect leader around the last month. We have little information regarding the dormer citizens who weren't part of any sect and moved here to find their fortune, but still, there is some correspondence that sheds some light on that mystery... do you want to read those letters with me...?"
"..."
The minister could only gulp down his saliva in sheer panic as one of the heavenly guardians from the Heavenly Star Nation took out a few pages of cheap parchment and put right in his face.
Bevan's hold on the minister was completely inescapable, the trembling man could only shiver more in hopes of phasing himself out of existence because every other means of escape was cut off after the martial artist's body began giving off thin silver mist as he began to openly channel his star power.
"Grandpa, can I go look around the city?!"
The oppressive atmosphere was broken for a second when a twelve-year-old reddish-brown-haired spunky child called out loudly while jumping off the warship and landing between the delegation of the Heavenly Star Nation and the elite soldiers who were supposedly there to escort them...
"Alice! I already told you to wait on the warship with William!"
"...but grandpaaaa...!"
The gray-haired leader of the Great Ram sect called to the child urgently, but the kid didn't seem eager to comply.
"...!"
*clank*
"...?"
The minister used the momentary distraction and glared at the soldiers. At the moment's notice, the armored troops rushed at the surprised child and...!
*@%^@^%@^%@^%@%#$@^#$@%&#&$^#@^$#@%^#@^%^@%^@^$@&^^&@^#^@^$%#@%$* *BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM*
*RUMBLE*
The line of the horizon on the opposite side of the ocean became engulfed in silver light followed by a massive explosion and a shockwave that reached even the dock in the capital city of the Barbariacca nation.
Upon seeing the outburst of silver light that was unmistakenly star power all envoys from the Heavenly Star Nation turned to their Heavenly Star Warrior, but William looked just as surprised as they were.
*BOOOOOM*
The monstrous eruption was almost immediately followed by a second, much smaller one that still managed to be heard although not felt in the dock.
"H-hey...! Let go of me! Law of Aries!"
As if ignorant to the outburst of insanely strong star power, the soldiers of Barbariacca nation surrounded and captured the young martial artists who flailed wildly but were unable to break free.
"...hey... what is the meaning of this...?"
"Release my granddaughter this instant or else!"
The Heavenly Guardian and the head of the Great Ram sect reacted to the youngster's cries in their own ways – the dark brown-haired man glared at the minister and threatened him while the old man stepped towards the soldiers.
"EVERYONE, WATCH OUT!"
"!!!"
Suddenly, the composed until now William roared in a panicked voice startling everyone who knew who he was.
The very next second everyone froze in shock – a black-haired young man appeared right above the group of elite soldiers who took young martial artists in custody...
*WHOOOOSH*
Then a delay shockwave created by his movement caught up and buffeted the people below.
"Oh. If it isn't Alan~! ...or are things different and you're Alice?"
Zoemi raised his brows seeing the younger version of the martial artist he traveled the Heavenly Star Nation with.
"...wh-wha...?"
The young martial artist gasped in bewilderment not understanding how that black-haired young man knew them or why he was talking as if they were friends.
*CRUSH* *SQUELCH*
"!!!"
As if it was just the natural thing to do, Zoemi descended, dropping his heel on the head of the soldier restraining the young martial artist, with the result being disturbingly similar to a can of ketchup-infused ham being crushed by a hydraulic press.
