Reaper of the Martial World

Book 7: Chapter 22: Bai (2)

Dyon looked at King Mino who still hadn’t moved from beginning to end. He shrunk down from his ten-meter size, returning to his normal height.

The moment he did so, it was as though an oppressive aura had finally disappeared, causing everyone to sigh in relief.

While waiting for the King’s answer, Dyon couldn’t help but think of the celestial beast babies. He had kept them with Mia and Bella, thinking that this would be a tough fight. But, it seemed he had overreacted.

King Mino looked toward Dyon with a fierce gaze. As a King, he couldn’t show the turmoil in his heart outwardly, but to say he wasn’t shaken by Dyon’s display would be a lie.

Seeing that he didn’t answer immediately, Dyon smiled. “Truth be told, aside from my little niece, Stella, I have no love lost for the Belmont family. I have every intention of unifying this universe and forming its first King God Clan in a long time. Actually, it could be said that I am already the leader of a King God Sect outside of this universe.”

Dyon wasn’t sure of how to mobilize faith, but his words weren’t a lie. Soul Rending Peak controlled an entire universe, giving it the qualifications of a King God Clan.

As one knows, a God Clan was a clan that controlled a certain percentage of territory on a given planet, or a clan graced with this title by a Royal God Clan. A Royal God Clan controlled an entire planet within a universe. However, a King God Clan had to, at a minimum, control a single universe. One didn’t become an Emperor God Clan until 25 universes were conquered and didn’t become a Comet Grade Clan until an entire quadrant was controlled.

Dyon’s words made Stella a little sad, but she understood where he was coming from and respected the fact he made his wishes so clear. Considering his power, the Belmont family didn’t deserve to keep him under their thumb. Plus, she was well aware of how her brothers and father had treated this uncle of hers in the past. historical

“Why are you telling me this?” King Mino replied in a gruff voice. His tone was steady and forceful, causing his men to admire the calmness of their King even in this situation.

“I’m telling you this so you know I have no desire to kill you or rule you by fear. As you can see,” Dyon pointed toward the Uidah, “My plans have been being slowly laid out for decades already. If you follow me, I can provide you with more benefits than the Shruti did by far.”

King Mino’s eyes narrowed. “How do you know about the Shruti?”

Dyon chuckled. He knew because the twins told him the origin of the armor they were wearing, but Dyon didn’t want this ability of his to become common knowledge, so he replied differently.

“Saru and I can be considered good friends. Also…” Dyon’s gaze sharpened. “I dare to say that even they can’t compare to the growth I can provide to your bloodlines.”

King Mino fell into silence.

Below them, the remaining army of the Geb, Horus and Aumen clans slowly crawled up from the abyss the fell into. Dyon didn’t bother helping them, but his Presence was locked firmly onto Ur Aumen.

“We are the descendants of the Demon Bull. If you want us to serve under you, you’ll have to defeat me!” King Mino came to a decision. No matter what, he couldn’t put down his pride.

“Good!” Dyon grinned fiercely, launching himself through the air to meet King Mino’s swinging halberd.

The two met once, then twice, continuously rising into the air to avoid damaging the planet below.

Dyon’s blood flowed with a happiness that was hard to describe as his fists met King Mino’s weapon.

King Mino was far more powerful than King Aumen. Although he was also a third-grade celestial, he had crossed over into the fourth stage while King Aumen was lagging behind in the third. This meant that he had entered the ranks of the middle celestial.

But, that wasn’t all. His body was sturdy and robust, showing signs of breaking into the celestial realm as well. He clearly cultivated two paths, making him much more of a challenge.

Dyon didn’t use his Titan Emperor’s Will not to disrespect King Mino, but rather, to test his limits. Plus, no one below could see their battle anyway. He knew very well that King Mino was doing this to keep his pride as the King of Planet Mino, so he had no intention of embarrassing him.

Hours later, a large four-meter-tall meteor came crashing down, blasting apart the center of the Mino army.

Dyon calmly descended from the skies as the warriors of Mino rushed toward their King.

“Father!” A girl seemingly far too delicate to be of the Mino clan ran out of the army. She too had horns, but they were a pure white and curved elegantly. Also, unlike the others, hers didn’t come directly from her forehead and were instead hidden within her hair.

She glared at Dyon hatefully before helping her bloodied father sit up.

At that moment, King Mino suddenly laughed blissfully. “I haven’t fought to my heart’s content in a long time. As long as you treat our Mino clan well, we won’t ever betray you –“

“But, father!” The Princess of the Mino Clan called out in protest, but King Mino only shook his head.

Dyon landed beside the barely sitting King Mino, smiling at Princess Mino who still seemed intent on glaring at him.

“Don’t touch my dad!” Princess Mino tried to stop Dyon, but it was already too late.
