Chapter 289: Words of Commandment

It was clear that Young Master Inuki Takehiro didn't seem to understand what was going on, as his eyes, ears, and senses were totally blocked from his own rage, anger, and stupidity.

And if that wasn't enough proof, that idiot even started running towards Eric with the intention of attacking him.

If Eric was a normal guy without any training, or any form of defense then even if he didn't die from that attack he would surely get crippled, and in the least, he was going to lose a limb or two.

But despite all this Eric wasn't worried in the least for two reasons, the first one was because Kela was already in between them, and the second because someone else had appeared behind his attacker.

It wasn't his brother though, but even then, it reeked like his brother. Meaning that the person who had appeared behind the stupid Young Master was his brother's subordinate.

The guy had shades covering his eyes, and a hat over his head that kind of hid his identity, as the system branded him as a level 62 fighter, through his clairvoyance eyes.

Talk about surprising! He would have never expected that his brother had already someone this strong by his side.

But this was most probably some kind of help he was getting from the enemies he had made for himself or some other countries' agencies.

After all, in today's Earth, probable the less discriminating place about race, skin, or tastes was the spying agencies.

Since those guys needed to be everywhere without being noticed, they would have to have people that could blend with the locals.

So, it wouldn't be weird for that expert to be working for a foreign spying agency, even though he had the appearance of a Japanese guy.

That guy appeared really suddenly, and with just one flick of his finger, he hit Young Master Inuki Takehiro from behind and throwing him towards Eric.

As for the Young Master in question, he didn't even have time to understand what was going on, as he was sent flying like a kite for the third time today.

That throw seemed to be in order to neutralize, the threat for Eric, but at the same time, it was in order to test him.

The 'push' he gave the Young Master Inuki Takehiro from behind was enough to not only destroy his control over himself but also to accelerate him beyond the capabilities of Kela.

Truly the moment that guy ended up on the floor he would most probably have more than a few broken bones, but at the same time, Eric stood in his path.

If Eric didn't avoid him, then he would end up suffering the attack, and he might be the one suffering injuries, but if he did avoid him, then he would show that he had quite the strength.

Even if he wouldn't expose his full true strength, in order to avoid that stone thrown at him, he would have to have the acceleration of someone between level 40-50, which was still a bit big.

If he avoided that and showed his power, then his enemies would be even warier of him, and he would have to face more problems after this, which was something he didn't want to deal with.

But he seriously didn't want to crash with this dummy, it would be just too embarrassing, and someone like him who held the title of Emperor in his past life wouldn't be able to bear it.

For that reason, he decided to try for the best of both worlds, and have someone else pick the damage for him.

Just as he thought like that, and the thrown body was at half the way towards him, two of Young Master Inuki Takehiro's weaklings jumped scared, and cut the thrown bodies trajectory.

The three bodies clashed in the air, as the two weaklings were thrown in different directions, while the used idiot was thrown out of trajectory, and didn't hit Eric, but some other guys in the crowd.

Well, he didn't want to create this problem for his big brother, and his servants so soon, but it was their own fault, as they had tried to probe the wrong person.

How did he achieve this!?

Pretty easily actually as this was one of his new skills, that he had decided to buy during his training month.

"Words of Commandment!"

It was a truly powerful skill, as it was a D+ skill with the possibility of evolving to an S skill. It depended on how much he was able to learn and make it useful for himself.

With each increase in the level of the skill he would be able to use it too much more powerful opponents, and in a much wider range.

At the moment, just like the name suggested he used Soul Power in order to command people to take actions that he suggested.

Normally he wouldn't be able to use a skill unless he was completely familiar with it, and had learned how to use it himself.

While the information that the Legacy System pushed to his head was enough for him to have a gist of the skill, and be able to use its minimum.

He still needed to better research, and analyze the skill in order to make it his 'own' and be able to use the full strength of his power.

With his current achievements in the skill he just used, he was at most able to make people doubt, or do something that they didn't feel doing so strongly.

But weirdly with the soul skills, his Legacy System gave him the opportunity to temporarily increase its effects, as long as he paid enough SP points.

For the earlier effect, he had to pay 110 SP points to be effective, even though those scums were less than level 10 and didn't truly have a strong Soul Power.

The rate at which the exchange was done was 10 SP points for level, and he already knew that, but still this didn't mean that he wasn't angry with what happened.

That good brother of his, and this damned servant of him had cost him 110 SP points already, increasing the amount of their already opened debt.

He would have to make sure he collected every small dreg of their debt, otherwise, he wouldn't be a happy person in the end.

At the same time, he also was able to see how powerful, and bendy this skill truly was, and he couldn't help to increase his proficiency and use of the skill.

But that didn't matter right now, what it mattered was that his plan had worked and he had dealt with the situation elegantly without needing to reveal his power.

In fact, what he did would most probably throw his opposition into more confusion and they would think that his Master had left him, someone, to protect him from behind.

Someone that was able to stay by his side, and be completely hidden by their senses, and technology.

Such an adversary was certainly something that they couldn't defy at the moment, or so would they think, giving him a bit of peace to work on his own.

Well, that would certainly happen in the future, as right now that guy in shades, and wearing that hat, was completely surprised by what just happened.

Things had completely drifted off from his plan, and there wasn't much of an acting space and time for him to do what he needed to do. Confirm Eric's true strength!

And to make matters worse for him, Kela immediately appeared by Eric's side, as she said,

"Capture these fools, and call their houses. They dared to offend Master Eric, the son-in-law of Master Takeshiba, and the ex-Vice President of the Takeshiba Grou of Companies.

Tell them that we will be waiting for an explanation, which better arrives quick!"

Her words completely stunned the crowd in there, as no one among them would have expected Eric to be that famous son-in-law of the Takeshiba family.

It wasn't their fault to have forgotten him though, as it was Eric who had gone missing for more than an entire month, without making any appearance at all.

There were some people who knew the reason behind that, and the bomb assassination attempt on him, but they were few in numbers.

Most of the people thought that he was somewhere around the world enjoying the millions and billions of the Takeshiba family, as he had hit jackpot in his life.

When the matter of bet became public there were even those people who thought that he might have grabbed a few million, and then escaped!

There was no way for him to be able to go against those Young Masters from the big families, in fact, he wouldn't even be able to go against someone from a third, or fourth-rate family.

He was a loser who should just escape for his life and enter the deepest hole he could find if he didn't want to die one day.

So, one could imagine the shock, surprise, and confusion on everyone's faces when they heard that the person in front of them was precisely that coward who should have entered the depths of Earth.

The truth was that they couldn't believe their ears and eyes. There was no way someone like that would reappear in front of them, right?

Did this guy have some kind of death wish or something? Otherwise, why would he return to the den of wolves when he was just a little sheep?

Eric on the other hand didn't seem to care about them, or their faces, as he just turned around and once again started walking towards the special elevator, it was time to meet his 'dear' brother…
