"You!"
Upon hearing the mockery, The eyes of the first elder couldn't help but tighten.
Those words hit the inner thoughts of the first elder. It was disturbing to think, his grandson is dead, whereas Kritos escaped alive.
Nonetheless, these were only his inner thoughts.
"Vishwa Mark, please refrain yourself from saying such abusive words, we all showed up here only for killing that monster." Lakhan asserted.
Vishwa Mark and Lakhan often mock each other, whenever they have a perfect chance.
It all started at the previous Challenger league, where Vishwa Martis easily won against Sanju Dwivedi and grabbed the title of the challenger.
"Eh! Lakhan, I was just saying the fact. Why do you need to become angry?" Vishwa Mark snorted.
Lakhan ignores him and approaches the clan head of Augusta Clan to understand the current situation.
Lakhan's first priority was to act like a clan head who just lost a young genius of their clan to avoid suspicion.
So, he refrains himself for wasting more time by talking to him.
Whereas Lakhan internally was waiting for the reaction of Vishwa Mark when he would learn that his granddaughter, a genius, and few members of his clan died at the hands of that monster.
Thinking about that situation, Lakhan almost put a smile on his face.
Lakhan really starts to hates Vishwa Mark, when he once mocks his son, Karen, after he sacrificed most of his vitality in the fight with the Foundation Realm demon, 2 years ago at Makarwat Village.
While Lakhan and the clan head of the Augusta clan were talking to each other. Kritos saw a familiar figure among the Vishwa Clan group.
'Vishwa Martis! He also came here to subjugate the illusory monster. I don't know how he will react when he learns that his sister is also killed by the monster. Whatever it is has nothing to do with me.' Kritos thought to himself, upon looking at the steady figure of Martis.
Although, Kritos didn't personally kill his sister. He felt good upon thinking of the face of this bastard when he learned about his sister's death.
It is also Martis's fault that his sister falls to this extent. If he had taught her some kindness and manner in childhood, maybe she was alive now.
In contrast, he always supports his sister in her misdeed.
Hence, for Kritos, Vishwa Martis shares the equal responsibility for spoiling her and for her death.
However, Kritos was confused due to the abnormal stats display of Vishwas Martis at the Challenger League.
He waited for the awakening of the System, so that he could ask System about Martis's abnormal stats.
Kritos again used greater inspection ability on Vishwa Martis. He wanted to sure about his stats.
[STATUS]
~Name: Vishwa Martis

~Physical status:
STR: 55
VIT: 55

AGI: 55

??????????
~Danger Level: Unknown
[Remark: Stay away for him...Abnormal Stats detected]
"What?"
The stats Kritos saw at the Challenger league and the stats he saw today were completely different from each other.
Even the Remark was changed.
Moreover, both the time, Martis stats were in harmony. All of them are in equal points.
What does this mean?
Kritos could only think of two possibilities.
One is that he uses some strange technique that brings all his stats in harmony.
Another is that he can completely control his power and can hide his actual strengths.
It isn't much of a problem in the former case, but if his later estimation is correct, then his actual strength is much higher than his current strength.
Kritos though about what the System has remarked about him.
"Abnormal Stats," Kritos murmurs to himself.
Now, Kritos feels that he is a real deal.
He never heard about the cultivation technique which could disguise someone's actual strength.
Moreover, even if there is such a technique, it wouldn't be in the hands of the Vishwa clan.
If there was such a technique in their clan, they would have long ago seized the Rewa city for only themselves.
'It is better if I stay away from him before I have enough strength to counter him,' Kritos thought to himself.
Afterward, he glanced at the current situation. All the three clan heads are discussing the strategy to kill the monster.
Besides, they had already sealed the passage with the Augusta Clan treasure.
It was an inscription that could seal a particular area. Nonetheless, it could only seal the being up to peak Foundation Realm strength.
If the monster was in Core Realm, it would have already destroyed the inscription. So, they passed away the possibility that the monster has strength above than peak Foundation Realm.
However, even then they didn't attack rashly. It is known to everyone that monsters are slightly stronger than humans in an equal realm.
After seeing them, Kritos opened the System.
Suddenly, he sees many previous notifications which were prompt when the System awoke from its Shut down.
[System update…]
[System updated to version Supreme Human System 2.0]
[Time Chamber function unlocked!]
[Shop function unlocked!]
"It's good. Finally, I could get something from the System Shop." Kritos murmurs in excitement.
Except for Time Chamber and Shop related notification, Kritos doesn't see any change.
Only the voice of the System becomes more familiar.
"System, can you tell me abnormalities related to Vishwa Martis Stats."
[Ding…]
[System perceives that Vishwa Martis actual strength is far stronger than the current strength. Moreover, he could maintain the false hormone between his stats, which is impossible with the low grade and mid-grade strength disguise technique.]
'Just as I thought,' Kritos already thought about this possibility, and he was quite sure about it.
It is just he doesn't understand why the skill related to the hormone of stats are good.
From Kritos point of view, using this type of technique can result in someone discovering the abnormalities, just like him.
"System, Why the hormone type disguise technique is better than normal strength disguise technique." Kritos again asked.
[Ding…]
[As long as all the stats maintain equilibrium in the number of points the user would be able to use the Harmony skill. The harmony skill is a unique grade skill whose effect is at a high level. Some Harmony skills would be able to increase cultivation speed by two times. Nonetheless, the Disguise Harmony strength technique is rarer than Harmony skills. Moreover, for cultivators, it is quite hard to maintain Equilibrium of all stats in actual strength, so Disguise Harmony strength comes in handy]
All the information in the notification was transmitted to Kritos mind within a split second.
"Harmony skill!"
He never heard about such a thing, but according to System, this type of skill has an extraordinary effect on the body.
Moreover, both Harmony skills and Harmony base disguise strength techniques are very rare.
Kritos again looked at the steady figure of Vishwa Martis,' Who are you? How are you able to obtain such skill without even joining a sect.'
Kritos's sub mind decided to always stay alert in front of Vishwa Martis presence.
He is a type of unknown enemy with an unknown strength who could become dangerous in a critical time.
As Kritos was thinking, he heard a wide announcement.
"We have decided to block it from both directions. Vishwa Clan with some other clan members will approach from the opposite direction and Augusta Clan and Dwivedi Clan will approach from the front with Kritos telling us exact information about the incident."
The clan head of Augusta Clan announced.
Due to Lakhan's suggestion, they decided to bring him into passage only if Kritos is personally protected by him. Lakhan describes that due to the previous incident, a scare of death is implemented in Kritos mind.
Although there was no actual danger in the passage, he worried about the Vishwa clan's action, when they learned about the missing of their clan members upon seeing their torn clothes.
They must try to relate their death or missing with Kritos when they don't find any monster in the passage. Nonetheless, they don't have any evidence. Moreover, Kritos strength and weak condition were already a sign of his innocence.
Furthermore, the Vishwa clan most probably think that the monster first captured them and fled with them.
The absence of blood and their body will be an indication of this probability.
The Vishwa Clan could only hope that they somehow escape from the monster grasp.
After saying, all cultivators started to group in the formation.
Kritos was quite pleased with the decision. Vishwa Martis is an abnormality, so it is better to stay away from him.
After a few minutes, they all were ready for the orders from their respective clan head.
