421 Chapter 421

When he was given a report by his subordinate eight and eleven, a month ago, he couldn't believe it. That is why, he personally came to the kingdom of Ellesmere to check its authenticity. He hid his identity and pretended to work under the Sea god's trident just to dive inside the dungeon of the demon who was the source of all these rumours.

To his surprise, whatever he saw in this dungeon today only seemed to make him even more astounded and broke all of his common sense. A demon viscount controlling so many powerful subordinates, calamity class beasts, an army of golems and even the sacred clan of forest Spring spirits that have been recorded in legends was under him.

Not to mention the power he displayed when facing the combined might of the seven swords.

Everything that was related to the demon, was so exaggerated that Bryan was having a hard time to believe that the one in front of him was really just a low ranking demon noble.

Simon narrowed his eyes the moment the other party mentioned the name Cerberus. He had heard the name previously from Eleven, the mysterious person from the Nifty Table.

He and Denzel had pursued the man and during the investigation, the name Cerberus came up. It was thanks to them that Simon was introduced to that peculiar machinery called the Coordinate and was teleported to the forbidden trial grounds.

From all of this information, Simon was at least aware that the organisation Cerberus had some relation with the Coordinate.

'Is he here to get my dungeon core?' Simon thought internally as he examined the person. the thing that powered a Coordinate, was none other than the shattered fragments of a dungeon core. thus it was only natural for Simon to believe that the person in front of him claiming to be from Cerberus was here for his dungeon core.

"It looks like you are aware of the name of our organisation. I wonder how much Eleven has told you? Anyways, I'm not here under orders to conquer your dungeon or anything. I came here on my own accord to confirm something".

Bryan said taking out something from his space ring. He then threw it towards Simon but Bea who was on alert for all kinds of attacks moved first and appeared in front of Simon as if teleporting. She caught the thing, examined it for any kind of trap before passing it towards her master.

"A badge?" Simon looked at the thing that had the mark of a fierce three-headed beast. No matter how looked at it, it was just a badge. Apart from having an aesthetic value, the badge doesn't seem to have any other use.

"Indeed, it is the insignia of our organisation. I have deemed that you are a person worth collaborating with or more like we don't want to get into your bad side since it would be too much of a hassle. That is why, with the authority bestowed on me as one of the senior officials 007, I invite you to our organisation. How about it?" Bryan asked looking straight at Simon.

The latter looked at the badge and the person before shaking his head in refusal.

"I refuse".

"Haha, I thought so. But don't be so eager to deny the proposal, I believe our organisation can be quite the help to you. From what I can see, your ambitions are quite big and won't be stopped at just this third rate kingdom".

"You will be hearing the name Cerberus quite a lot in the future, I believe there will be plenty of opportunities for us to work together. For now, you should keep the badge with you, you will understand its importance later. Now then, I have observed plenty and have achieved my objective, it's time for me to get out of here".

Having said whatever he had to say, Bryan prepared to take his leave.

"Do you think you can just leave my dungeon without my permission?" Simon arched his brows curious that the man thought he can get away from them.

"Hehe, I know you and your subordinates are strong but if you want to keep one of the seven Cerberus with three digits to his name like me here, you would need much more than that. Since my skill [Guide] is telling me not to use the scroll of return, I will be using that thing although I'm somewhat reluctant to use it. But given that the [Guide] skill has saved my life multiple times, I believe that is the right choice".

Bryan murmured to himself without caring if the other party could clearly hear him. At some unknown point in time, his hand was holding a weird artefact that looked like a grail.

He was just about to pour the contents of the artefact on him when suddenly he realised there was a presence right behind him.

"Hehh, you say that we aren't strong enough to keep you here? Very well then, allow me to see how you shall escape from here" Bea said teleporting behind Bryan without even the latter noticing it.

p Bryan hurriedly turned around and parried the knife that threatened to dig into his skull with the artefact in his hand.

CLANG… an intense clanging noise echoed out and Bryan was sent smashing down onto the ground.

Whoosh… Though it didn't seem like he had suffered any damage as he swiftly picked himself up from the dent he had created on the ground. His body was completely unscathed though the same couldn't be said for his expression.

Right now his face was masked with a kind of disbelief as he watched a small crack appear on the artefact that he was holding.

"Hnn~ that artefact on your hand is not bad. To be able to parry an attack from me and still not crack" Bea appeared behind him once again like a ghost and muttered.

This time, Bryan wasn't able to dodge the attack in time and was hit squarely in the guts by a kick from Bea.

BANG… he crashed into a distant huge tree and stayed like that for a few seconds.

"Ahaha really, the surprises just keep coming. Who knew there would be such a powerful subordinate around? Ring of Discordance release" Bryan murmured and released the effect of the artefact that was suppressing his powers.

The moment he did so, the entire aura around him changed and his powers rose to a whole different level. That was not all, furs started growing in some part of his body and his arms and legs had elongated a little.

Simon who was observing this change from the distance, widened his eyes a little at this moment. Those long arms, fur and the change in the irises, these characteristics were definitely not that of a human.

What was going on? Was the man not human? Simon was quite curious, with that change the man had directly breached the level 600 hundred barrier and was now around level 650.

The man named Bryan was powerful; however, if he thought that it was enough to best Bea, then he was sorely mistaken.

"What kind of transformation is that, you became even more ugly" Bea commented appearing in front of Bryan at a speed that even he had difficulty spotting.

"Hmph, you are fast but so what? In terms of power, there is no way I will lose" Bryan said, his mana wrapped around his arms becoming a gauntlet of some sort which he used to punch at the maid.

BOOOM… one could imagine the burst of power released by a person above level 600. Just a simple punch without any skill involved from him, was powerful enough to create a berserk storm of wind within a few dozen meters of radius.

"Hnn~ really?! Is this the strength you were so proud of?" Nevertheless, the maid easily blocked his attack with her palm, without even being pushed back.

Next, she tightly clenched his outstretched hand and slammed him onto the ground like a ragdoll.

BAM.. BAM… BAM… It was a funny scene, after that transformation of Bryan, he was more than twice the size of the maid. One could even say that in front of his towering stature, the maid looked just like a child.

Being manhandled like he was some toy, the scene cannot be any more absurd.

BANG… after being slammed into the ground one last time, Bryan swiftly picked himself up and opened up a distance between him and the maid. Looking at his body, it didn't seem like he had suffered any physical damage but that couldn't be said for his morale.

'It can't be, am I being overwhelmed in pure strength even when I am partially transformed?' Bryan had an incredulous look on his face as he thought internally. Even though he was not fully committing his fight since he also had to be aware of the other joining in, but even then.

"That maid is quite good. Although she lacks combat experience just like the others, her senses and abilities are powerful enough to cover for her weaknesses" Irene remarked observing the fight beside Simon.

"Right, when it comes to pure physical strength, she is only behind Mercedes and Bianca amongst the Valkyries. Though it seems like she is not being serious at all, after all, Bea's strength lies in her agility which far outmatches all the other Valkyries by far" Simon commented.

When it came to absurd inter-dimensional entities like Null elemental, Irene might be far more knowledgeable than him but when it came to the twelve heroes, no one was more well informed than him.

Hearing Simon's words, Irene's crystal blue eyes started shining with a mysterious light which she used to examine the maid. Convinced by her findings, Irene nodded her head.

She did not know how Simon had created these maids but even when their true potential was locked due to the limitations of the summoning, the maid was doing a good job handling that person without using most of her current powers.

'If in the future the Valkyries can break those restraints locking away their powers, the valkyries would be in the upper tier of the [A] rank subordinates'.
