Chapter 2078 Pearl's Father
Five minutes after tying up, Dayus finally woke up and he felt as powerless as an infant.
He looked at Sam in shock.
"What the fuck did you do to me?"
He tried to move, but he cannot. He is restrained completely. Even an immortal beast was restrained without a way to move from these chains. Dayus is far from that strength.
"Nothing. Just wanted to greet you before you start your journey in the Academy realm."
"Greetings? Fuck off."
Dayus cursed as he looked at Sam hatefully. Nobody hates Sam more than him, at least that is what Dayus thinks for himself.
"Let me go. Or you will face the consequences." Fiind updated novels at novelhall.com
"Consequences? Come on Dayus, you should know better than to threaten me by this point. I have beaten your ass so many times, that I don't even remember how many techniques I have to defeat you."
"What do you want from me? Why are you restraining me?"
"Nothing, it is just that your presence in the Academy realm is going to be a bit troublesome for now.. I have some plans in place and if you are out, you are going to spoil them."
Dayus suddenly smirked.
"So, you got scared shitless and wanted to use these underhanded tricks to get ahead of me? Fucking Corward."
Sam raised an eyebrow.
"You are the one to talk." Watt scoffed from the side. Among the players Dayus has been the one since the start who time and again involved outsiders and broke promises. No one likes him and almost every player wanted to kill him at least once.
So, preaching about underhanded techniques is very rich coming from him.
Dayus looked at Watt coldly.
"Don't stare at him. He might gouge your eyes out. You know how violet Watt can be when he is pissed." Sam grabbed Dayus' attention once again and continued.
"I want you to stay put for a while. Think of it as a relaxation period. Once my plans are in place, you will be out of here."
Sam then stood up and started attaching a few formation discs on the wall of the room.
He knew that once a string like this is pulled, even the mountains have to shiver a bit. And a truly guilty party will shiver more since they knew exactly what they did. The threat triggered the exact conversation they expected and it is going in the direction the expected.
"What do you think could have possibly given away? I thought the secret was fool proof. What method do you think he might have to know about this?"
"I don't know, but the only possibility I see is if either that person involved should have revealed it or maybe the refugees that managed to escape that time have to know more than we think they know."
"Do you know where they escaped to?"
"I believe they went to one of those has been planets. That is a secondary planet under the control of a clan that worships apollo. I have some people there who occasionally keep tabs on those people. From my investigation, they don't know anything about the incident.
As far as they are concerned it is a planetary disaster that forced them to escape."
"We cannot be a hundred percent sure. We need to eliminate any possibility. Tell your people to keep an eye on them. They could have some uses in the future, but if push comes to shove we might have to eliminate them. Send Ivar's image and other details to your people and tell them to inform us if he is spotted there.
Based on Ivar's personality stealth is not really his thing.
Also, tell we might have to go and deal with Ivar ourselves and make sure that our secrets are in the dark if he really did find any inkling of information about this." Elder Minsk said.
"Do you believe there is no other way?" Elder Kraken asked.
Even though he asked that, judging from his expression, it is apparent that he also believed the same and thus, they started discussing the plans.
Sam listened in on it and smirked.
It is almost too easy. Day by day his respect to this realm is going down bit by bit. Surely, this place is just as he thought.
A place for him to perform.
He closed the screen and got off his bed. He took off on hoverboard and went to the Norse region. He needs to relay this information to Ivar and he has to do it in person.
While Sam is traveling, in a different corner of the world.
Pearl arrived at her father's training grounds.
It is a vast mountain range. She has been travelling for a while and even with the protective charm her father gave her, she had a hard time find the location where his father was cultivating.
By the time she found her, he is sitting under a waterfall. There is a weird formation placed under him and also at the mouth of the waterfall. A few cuts are appearing on his body before they healed and got cut again. He had dark black hair, with slight blue hue. His body is covered with scars. Not of the cuts that he is experiencing now. But from previous battles. He had a tall and muscular build. The calluses and his palms and legs showed just how much he trains.
There is an aura of menace around him. As if he is the manifestation of destruction himself. Pearl felt shivers down her spine as she felt that aura. She felt like she would die if she took two more steps.
Not from an attack but just from that suffocating and menacing aura
