Chapter 66 500? You'd Be Lucky To Get 200 II

"What exactly do you mean by that?" Luke asked with a bit of malevolence in his tone, peeking at Sato who was smiling despite the situation.

"There's still time for you to turn yourself in, not enough damage has been done." Sato voiced out.

"He's right, master, this path is not one you should take… it's a very dangerous one." Rexi said, trying to convince Luke.

She walked forward but with her blade still in her hands.

"Lady Rexi, please be careful." One of the vampire soldiers yelled.

"No one should intervene, I'll take care of this myself." Rexi commanded as she continued her advance.

'If she does manage to get him on our side, that leaves the 500 troops he was talking about.

He sounded so confident, I wouldn't be shocked if he has back up here too… Helix, do you detect anything?' Sato asked.

<<Negative, although I do have an updated result to relay>>

'Carry on then'.

<<The Duke is presently in a fight with seven individuals in the mansion, Erza and her butler are also in battle right in the garden with a single threat and lastly Divanchi and Orland have anchored at their destination and are now progressing in the attempt to rescue Elena>>

'All this information and nothing about nothing about the enemy.' Sato sighed.

<<Apologize, the current magic tampering substance in the air making analyzing the enemy a very difficult task>>

'It's all good, let's just see what goes on with these two love birds.' Sato said, watching Rexi and Luke patiently from the sidelines.

"Don't come any closer!" Luke yelled, grasping his fist to allow magic to build up inside it.

Rexi halted as soon as he heard Luke's outburst, "Master." She called out with concern.

To Luke, everyone currently standing in the arena was his enemies, including his faithful attendant.

"Just because you came in numbers, you thought I'd be scared, you must really be full of yourself." Luke voiced out.

"Master…"

"Shut up! Don't call me that, you traitor!" Luke yelled, puttering Rexi with his eyes.

"Why would you call me something like that? I have always been loyal to the Gigz family, that hasn't changed." Rexi uttered calmy.

"Oh really, then explain to me what you are doing with that asshole over there." Luke shouted as he pointed at Sato.

Rexi hesitated to speak but later found the resolve, "I need their help in saving the red district." She revealed.

"What in the hell are you talking about?" Luke asked with confusion written on his face.

"Master, I know all about the way you sold your father's fortune toward the forever knight to the ghost council, and how they promised to grant the seat of the vampire council to you." Rexi said, an earnest look hitting her face as she stared back at Luke.

"H…How do you know about that? You were spying on me?!" Luke yelled but the fear he was feeling was still all over his face.

"You were hungry by greed and wanted to be the ruler of vampires, so much that you killed your father".

"Stop talking!".

"A sin like that is hard to repent over so easily." Rexi continued, ignoring Luke's protest.

"I said enough".

"But, you can still atone by telling us where they are and plan, I know you won't…".

"Enough!" Luke yelled and got ready to charge at Rexi.

Before he could take a step, Luke felt something dig him from behind. He wasn't sure but the blood dripping from his hand said a lot.

"What the…?" Luke muttered, he turned around and saw a ghost and a werewolf standing in the VIP section of the arena.

The ghost, Gudan had his hand stretched out which demonstrated he was the one who initiated the attack.

"B…Bastard," Luke muttered before falling to the ground on his chest.

"Master!" Rexi called out as she immediately ran to his side.

Sato stared up at the two individuals looking down at him.

<<Notice… the members of the council standing before you, the leader of the ghost council Gudan and the leader of the werewolf council Puma>>

'So these guys are the council… one of them just killed Luke, they are definitely not here to help me, what the hell are they here for?' Sato questioned.

"The human in the black outfit gives me a rather unsettling feeling." Puma voiced out as he stared at Sato.

"Relax you big dog, it's just one human, geez." Gudan voiced out, "Now!".

Gudan jumped down from the top and so did Puma. They both landed on the ground which caused a huge wave of dust to blow across the arena.

"Uhn? I was certain I would meet those silly mermaids here." Gudan said as he walked.

He stopped his advance when he noticed the soldiers standing in front of him and blocking his path that led to where Rexi was.

"With all due respect, you just killed the leader of the Nerverk security's son, please do explain yourself." A soldier stepped up and spoke.

"You guys must have hearts of steel, then again, you are soldiers so it's understandable, but even still… you should watch how you address me." Gudan said and instantly snapped his finger.

The six soldiers who were at the front immediately got their bodies ripped into pieces as a fast moving ghost whip shot out of the ground.

The remaining four at the back were saved by Sato and Yuri before the whip could touch them and shatter their bodies into a million pieces.

Sato, carrying three soldiers, landed on the ground before lowering the soldiers on the ground.

They all didn't waste any time, all the soldiers began to run away, panting and pushing each other to selfishly save their own lives.

"Master, do you want to fight them?" Yuri asked, her eyes were glowing since she was ready to fight.

"They aren't exactly here to sell cupcakes, a fight is most definitely going to happen." Sato replied before standing upright.

Yuri smiled in response to Sato's reply, "In that case." She voiced.

"Hey dog boy and ghosty!" Yuri called out, "There's only two of you and two of us, why don't we make this a fair fight and we go one on one with each other." She proposed.

"Very tempting… but, looks like our team is here, can't leave them out of the fun now can I?" Gudan responded with a confident grin on his face.

The loud stomps of people approaching the stadium got louder and louder with every passing minute, everyone standing under the stadium knew something was going on.
