Chapter 119 - Compromise?

Name:The Black Market Author:Condemned
Both Saint Commander Faramis and Demon Saint Muchen took a step back after hearing Cale's frightening voice. They were now more wary of him after he had equipped the Void Wolf Immortal Set. 

Cale's overall aura changed entirely. If his aura before was as serene as a still pond of water, then his aura now was that of a savage beast. 

Saint Commander Faramis was a mid-stage Saint-Class level fighter, while Demon Saint Muchen was also on the verge of breaking through towards the mid-stage of Saint-Class level.

Cale who was weaker in terms of cultivation level did not look weak at all, especially after he equipped the full set of Saint-Class level set equipment.

Cale pointed his menacing sword at the two aliens. The sword produced dark and space elements around it. These two were the elements of his weapon. Cale glared at the two men and his silver eyes produced a dense killing intent.

"Today, I will end your lives. None of you two will be able to escape my wrath!"

Cale disappeared from where he previously stood right after he had spoken those words. Saint Commander Faramis and Demon Saint Muchen suddenly felt a dreadful aura behind them. Their faces fell and they used their fastest speeds to evade Cale's sword strike while enveloping their bodies with elemental essence.

"Baang!"

Dark sparks can be seen on Cale's Void Wolf Immortal Sword and a baleful black sword wind was produced after he slashed his Saint-Class level sword. The sword wind traveled at a terrifying speed on Faramis' and Muchen's location. They turned around and fired their attacks to block the raging sword wind. 

Saint Commander Faramis fired a huge fireball while Demon Saint Muchen produced dark sword blades. The three attacks met and it created an ear-shattering explosion that reverberated loudly above the sky. 

The people down below thought that a violent thunder had struck the planet after they heard the explosion. Their faces were painted with fear and they thought that the gods were punishing them for destroying the planet.

A shockwave was produced by the clashing of their attacks. Cale effortlessly blocked the shockwave with his shield. The two aliens cross their arms to protect themselves from the shockwave that is capable of tearing the toughest tanks on Earth. 

Cale did not want to give them a moment of respite. His Void Wolf Immortal Wings fluttered swiftly as he flew towards his two enemies at top speed. He then brandished his sword towards the two.

Demon Saint Muchen produced a wall of darkness to block Cale's attack. The wall made of dark elements was only able to stop Cale for half a second before it disintegrated.

'Fuck! This guy is actually this strong?! Didn't he just broke through?!'

Saint Commander Faramis cursed in his mind while hastily conjuring multiple layers of fire wall.  

The walls of fire successfully blocked Cale's attack, but that had consumed a lot of Faramis' elemental energy. He then cast a glance at Cale who was hovering above them. His black wings flapped as Cale stared at them mockingly. 

'Viscount Geisler, you have made a wrong decision this time. We shouldn't have antagonized this monster or we would have had a strong ally. What a pity.' Saint Commander Faramis shook his head regretfully as he thought to himself.

"Honorable sir, how about we compromise? We will stop the attacks on your planet as long as you allow the both of us to leave. What do you think?" Saint Commander Faramis flashed an ugly and crooked smile while staring at Cale with slight fear. Demon Saint Muchen who was behind him nodded his head in agreement. After seeing Cale's strength, they knew that they would not be able to kill him, instead, it was Cale who was capable of killing them.

Cale laughed condescendingly after hearing Saint Commander Faramis' proposal. He wanted to retreat after knowing that they don't have the capabilities of killing him? They came on Earth with the plan to kill everyone. And they had already killed more than several million people in Beijing and in other countries, and they want him to let them go? 

"And what if I don't want to let the both of you leave?" An evil voice echoed on the ears of the two alien men. Their bodies turned cold after hearing his words.

"Honorable sir, we may be weaker than you, but if the worst comes, then we don't mind dying with you here." Demon Saint Muchen gritted his teeth angrily. How could he, a reputable Saint of the Shura world be looked down upon? He hated Cale's way of looking at him, it was like he was staring at a dead man. Only him, a Saint-Class level fighter of the noble demon race was allowed to look down on his enemies!

"Kill me? Wishful thinking." Cale laughed arrogantly. He then unequipped his shield and held his sword with two hands before he vanished from his location. He swung his sword with full strength which produced a whistling sound. Dark and space elements covered his entire sword. 

Faramis and Muchen were surprised at Cale's sudden attack. They blocked his attack with their elemental spells, but a strong rebound force still catapulted them away. Purple and red blood splashed as the two figures were flung away. They spun in midair and balanced themselves before wiping the blood at the corner of their lips. 

"Fuck! This fellow is serious about killing us! Even in the kingdom, only a few noble figures had a Saint-Class weapon, so how could he have one? And it's clearly stronger than the royal family's Wrathful Star Halberd! A mortal world should not be capable of producing such a weapon, unless.." Saint Commander Faramis stared at Cale fearfully as he spoke.

"Unless what?" Demon Saint Muchen was also afraid of Cale, he could not help but ask.

"Unless... that guy is not a native here on this planet. Because it is impossible for someone to make that kind of weapon here. It's even a full set, this guy must have come from a very complicated background. Just based on his demeanor alone, I can say that he is not ordinary." Faramis answered helplessly. He would have never thought that such a man was actually guarding this planet. 

"Then... Does that mean his background is even more powerful than the royal family?" Demon Saint Muchen was taken aback. 

"That could only be the case. It was wrong to make this planet as a food supplier for the lesser demons." Saint Commander Faramis shook his head after a heavy sigh. 

"Are you done talking among yourselves?" A nonchalant, but malicious voice traveled behind them. They were shocked and before they could even turn around, they felt strong force gripped their necks tightly. Their elemental essence was also locked, so all they could do was hold the arms of the person who was choking them while violently kicking his body with their feet. But how could they damage Cale's Saint-Class level Void Wolf Immortal Armor, especially now that their elemental essence was sealed? 

Cale did not budge even after being kicked multiple times, or he did not feel any attacks at all. He then crushed the neck of Demon Saint Muchen.

"Craack!"

The snapping sound of bones resounded and a head with two short horns dropped from the sky. Cale then produced a searing flame that engulfed the headless corpse of the Demon Saint. His ashes scattered along with the cold winds.

Saint Commander Faramis struggled fiercely from Cale's grip after seeing the tragic death of Muchen, but he could not overpower the latter. 

"I won't kill you now. I still have a few questions for you before I will do that." Cale spoke evilly while glancing at the Avran Commander with his emotionless eyes. 

'Asteria, can you consume his elemental essence?' Cale asked Asteria who was currently hovering beside him. She then morphed into her human form with a beautiful pair of glittering wings behind her back. Her sudden appearance surprised Faramis greatly.

'A fairy... How could someone from the fairy race be here?' He thought to himself. Now he was sure that Cale wasn't someone from Earth. 

Cale did not know what Faramis was thinking, but even if he knew? So what? 

Asteria stared curiously at Faramis. She then turned towards Cale and spoke in a melodic, but unperturbed tone of voice.

"I can turn him into your slave, and with that, you can be sure that he will answer all your questions truthfully."

Cale frowned after hearing her suggestion. He wanted to kill him for ordering the deaths of his fellow humans, but Asteria was also right. He gritted his teeth and finally conceded his own grudge.

"Fine, do it for me, Asteria."

Asteria nodded her head slightly before pointing her slender arm towards Faramis. A ball of light emerged from her hand which traveled towards Faramis' head. The moment it touched his head, he violently swung his limbs. His strength grew weaker and weaker before his eyes closed tightly. 

Cale released his hold on his neck and held the collar of his shirt. "Let's go, Asteria. There is still a war down below."

Cale unequipped his armor and only a pair of black wings remained. He then flew back down towards Beijing, Asteria followed after him.
