Chapter 109: Elimination of the monster
Chapter 109: Elimination of the monster
Upon reaching the platform, Karen glanced at the nervous looks of the elders and his father.
He bows down his head and greets all of them.
"Karen, could you directly explain the reason for your order. You know, the other two clans are waiting for our response," The first elder asserted.
"Yes first elder, but my nephew, Kritos, can explain it better."
As he said, Kritos walked inside the clan hall. He has some light injuries on his face and wounds on his hands.
His complexion was awful, upon watching him anyone would think that he had just escaped from a dreadful scene.
Kritos first bows down his head to them and then begins telling the fabricated story.
"Respected elders and clan head, today morning, I met Sam in the middle of the city market. He approached me to inform me about the celebration party for winning the tournament. He also told me that he got permission from the clan head."
After telling, Kritos looked at Lakhan for his approval.
Lakhan instantly nodded and permitted him to resume his story.
"From him, I learned that the Celebration party was going to be organized after two hours. Moreover, he would pick me up from my home."
After a pause, Kritos continued," Subsequently two hours passed, and he came to my house at the exact time. Afterward, we walked towards the black cup restaurant which is suited in the east with Sam's as a guide. He planned to take shortcuts through the abandoned buildings. Unbeknownst to us, there is some kind of monster hiding in the passage."
Kritos glanced at the serious looks of the elders, he resumed in a low voice, "In the center of the passage, we encountered that monster. It instantly killed S-Sam with its weird magic"
"What!!!"
Before Kritos could finish his sentence, the first elder leaps towards the Kritos.
"You're laying... Sam can't be killed."
The first elder placed both his hands on Kritos's shoulder and jerked Kritos's entire body.
"Say it he is fine! My grandson can't be dead!" The entire face of the first elder was wrapped by his tears.
Lakhan immediately jumped from his position and attempted to restrain the first elder from losing his emotion.
"Samuel lets Kritos finish his words."
Lakhan consoles the first elder on the death of his grandson and then tells someone to comfort him.
He understands that after listening to the death of his grandson, he must be suffering misery.
However, the first elder remained in the Clan hall. He wanted to listen to the full incident which happened after his grandson's death.
At first, he didn't believe this shit, but upon deeply thinking. He concluded it is most likely true.
Still, the first elder doesn't fully believe in Kritos's words.
If his grandson was instantly killed by a monster. Why did Kritos survive and how did he escape from it?"
Sam may not be skilled like Kritos, but as a Foundation Realm cultivator, Sam had superior speed than Kritos who was only at the peak of the Apprentice realm.
Hence, he has some doubts about Kritos statement.
Before Kritos could continue to tell the complete incident, the first elder fiercely asked," If that monster easily killed my grandson then how would you escape. Didn't tell me someone saved you."
Looking at the fury of the first elder, Kritos sighed.
Even if Sam was alive, the first elder would have definitely protected him from the clan laws.
He may have gone to an extreme extent to save him from charges of betrayal.
"Respected first elder, did you forget that I have an ability that lets me be invisible for a quiet second and eliminate my presence from the surroundings. This ability was enough to let me escape from the pursuit of that monster," Kritos Solemnly retorted.
In Kritos's explanation, every single elder nodded their head in agreement.
They weren't even able to detect his presence when he used his strange ability.
They already wanted to ask Kritos about his extraordinary ability and unusual soul beast which permits him to operate transformation ability at only Apprentice Realm.
The transformation between Soul beast and Cultivator was an absolute pressure for many cultivators.
The body experiences a huge dispersion of cells. Sometimes, the body is shattered into many parts if someone forcibly tries to use Transformation ability without any concern from experts.
It was not something that anyone could do in their cultivation journey, and here, they watch a peak Apprentice Realm cultivator perfectly perform it.
Nevertheless, most people give credit to Kritos for being the legendary Late One.
In ancient times, before the dark ages, the late ones were capable enough of performing extraordinary feats.
Someone could summon ancient beings from the past. Some transform themselves into divine beasts.
In contrast to that, this may look ordinary.
Still, to the people of Rewa city, Kritos was now on the level of a genius.
For them, Kritos potential was enough to place him equal to the ten miracles of Star Kingdom.
While all the elders were murmuring to themselves about the current situation.
Suddenly, Lakhan announced the eradication of the unknown monsters with the other two clans.
He told the messenger of the two clans to tell their respective clans about the incident and the current situation in Rewa city.
Lakhan already guessed the strength of the monster, but he wasn't sure about it.
Without the proper invasion, it may lead to the death of many people.
Plans are of little importance, but planning is essential. Without planning, it may lead to failure.
So, Lakhan organizes clan members who will participate in the elimination of the monster.
It was obvious that the younger generation would be out of the expedition.
They are the future of the clan, it was apparent they will stay in the clan.
"Karen, you will organize and control the front end of our clan. Samuel, you can stay with your family. Your family will need you," Lakhan announced.
However, upon hearing, the first elder furiously replied," Lakhan, what do you think about me? I will take revenge on my grandson with my own hands. That monster will definitely regret killing my grandson."
As the first elder talks more, more drops of tear fall from his eyes.
After looking at him, Lakhan sighed. He could feel his emotions.
Nonetheless, he doesn't have enough time to comfort him. Maybe after killing the threat, he could.
Everyone began to quickly leave one by one from the clan hall.
Karen and Kritos were the last ones. They intentionally stayed in the clan hall.
After everyone leaves from the Clan hall, Karen decided to tell the truth to his father.
As there was not a single monster in that passage. It may arouse suspicion in everyone's mind.
Hence, it is better to tell the truth to his father.
After everyone evacuated from the clan hall, Karen and Kritos approached the clan head who was in deep thought.
"Father!"
"Oh! Karen and Kritos, Is there something you want to discuss with meWait, Kritos, Did you receive any heavy injuries in your body?"
Lakhan worriedly asked him. Due to the current situation of the city, he forgot to ask Kritos about his well-being after the incident.
"Grandpa, I am fine! We wanted to discuss something with you," Kritos replied.
"Ok, quickly tell me, I don't have enough time."
Kritos nodded his head and glanced at Karen who stood beside him.
"Uncle Karen, it will be better, if you personally tell grandpa about the truth of the incident."
When Lakhan heard Kritos's words, he felt something was wrong. So, he looked at Karen in expectation of truth.
"Karen, do you mind explaining what Kritos said."
"Father, earlier what Kritos said in the clan hall was just a facade. The real truth is something else that can't be shared with everyone," Karen asserted.
Upon listening to his words, Lakhan intentionally glared at both of them.
"Are you out of mind, Karen? Did you know what both of you have done?"
Karen ignored his father's words and said," Father, actually it was schema to kill Kritos. Besides, Kritos already fall in their plan. He was near death."
"What? Who planned it? Tell me... Someone actually dares to scheme against my grandson," Lakhan fiercely said.
"Father, actually
***
"So, there is not any proof which connects the death of Mayank group with you, Kritos," Lakhan asked.
He was stunned to hear that Mayank and the young miss of the Vishwa Clan are dead. Moreover, Sam was a part of their scheme. In a sense, he betrayed the Dwivedi clan.
Lakhan was pleased, how both of them counter the scheme in a small time.
Lakhan himself thought that Kritos story is real. His act was enough to fool anyone.
However, what Lakhan doesn't know that Kritos created a skill that is related to acting.
