1250  Is He Worthy

Author's Note: Unedited Chapter

-------------------

"Yeah there was a lot going on back home which caused my lateness but let me not bore you with the details," Stark voiced with a strong tone.

'Something about you him has changed,' Gustav thought.

"How has takeing on the responsibility of the family head been treating you?" Gustav questioned.

"Well, it for sure isn't easy but somehow i made it work," Stark had a slight change in expression that Gustav caught for a second before it went away.

"You've gotten way stronger since the last time I saw you," Stark voiced with a tone of astonishment.

"So have you... you're an Alpha now?" Gustav said with a surprised expression as he finally sensed Stark's bloodline rank.

"It's the emblem. I'm not a true Alpha," Stark responded quickly while waving his hand to dismiss the misconception.

"Are you just saying that to make you look weaker than you are?" Gustav eyed knitted as he voiced out.

"No its true haha I'm not really an alpha. It's the emblem fooling you. I'm not actually supposed to tell anyone that," Stark started off with a laughter before turning into a whispering at the end of the sentence.

"Hmm but no doubt i can sense that you have really increased jn strength," Gustav decided to take his word for it but was also sure Stark had increased in strength.

"Well, I can do the three headed Draconic Transformation now," Stark revealed as they moved around.

"Congratulations on that. You should be able to rule much easier," Gustav voiced in response.

"I guess. Thank you once again for your help back then. You really saved my life in more ways than one," Stark said with a smile.

"I was just doing my job," Gustav nodded.

"Speaking of job, do your guards need to keel following us? I doubt you're in any form of danger around here," Gustav added while squinting his eyes.

"Hahaha I knew you would be able to sense them," Stark laughed lightly as he turned to the side.

"Viltru, Askim," Stark called out.

Thiirrhh! Thrriihh!

Two figures clas in robe like outfits appeared beside Stark in the next instant.

"Family head," They both voiced out simultaneously.

"He was aware of you guys presence," Stark chucked.

"That is quite remarkable Officer Crimson," Viltru voiced with a tone of astonishment.

"Hmm," Gustav didn't even know how to respond to that. He had noticed them since the start so he didn't even find it remotely remarkable since it felt normal to him.

"There's no need to keep following me everywhere in disguise, I'm not in any danger," Stark voiced out.

"We cannot comply with that, family head. We have to remain at close proximity at all times," Viltru stated while the other guard nodded.

Stark shrugged in defeat as he stared back at Gustav.

"Follow me back to our accommodation quarters," Gustav voiced before leaping into the air.

Fwwwhiiii~

Wings sprouted out of his back and a loud flap reverberated across the vicinity.

"You're on," A smile appeared on Stark's face as his skin turned smooth and shiny.

Golden scales appeared all over his body as he increased immensely in size while massive wings spread forth from his back.

In a couple of moments, he had completely transformed into a nearly thirty feet large draconic figure, with three heads, sixteen horns and blazing yellowish eyes.

A powerful aura spread forth from his being across the vicinity, attracting the attention of everyone in the area as he flapped his wings.

Fwwwhoooommsshhh~

Stark figure instantly ascended into the sky, dissapearing into the distance as powerful winds blasted across the vicinity.

He caught up with Gustav in barely a few moments, "You're still slower than me," His deep and menacing voice was heard along with a light chuckle.

"I let you catch up," Gustav responded from the side.

"Then by all means, go all out," Stark kicked his Draconic feet in mid air like an excited little child as he spoke.

"We're here," Gustav voiced before pausing his flight in mid air.

"Oh that was short..." Stark responded as he quickly made a turn in mid air after flying past the structure below.

--------------

Within an unknown accommodation area, a group of five could be seen having a meeting of sorts.

They all had similar body features. Transparent skins, green eyes and an oddly shaped reddish like head.

One of the members within the gathering seemed to be currently speaking.

"She humiliated my brother! He is still recovering and cannot join us for the next major challenge. Even after IYSOP is over, this humiliation will follow him for the rest of his days.

Everyone witnessed what he became after that earthling used her power on him. They witnessed his utter nakedness and the form he would take in old age. His tufaka out on display.

He will never be the same. Never!"

The person speaking happened to be seething with rage.

"And that is why she must pay," He added, "With her life,"

"The problem is, we cannot kill a participant on purpose without getting disqualified," Another one of them voiced.

"Then we shan't kill them on purpose or at least we will have to make it look like it wasn't on purpose,"

"You're right Uzeki. We still haven't paid their captain for what he did to Unda. Let's see how he feels after he loses one of his teammates," The first one responded.

"How can we make it look like it is not on purpose? Last I checked, the earthlings are very strong so killing any one of them without getting into a fight where attacks are traded doesn't seem possible," One of them stated.

"There's only one way. It had to be done in a single attack. We have to make sure that earthling loses her life with a single attack. That way we can pretend it was a mistake especially since the mixedblood earthlings are known to be quite durable," Orimon voiced.

"If that is the case, we need an ultimate killing attack. One that will guarantee instant death no matter how powerful the opponent is. One that cannot be guarded against," Uzeki voiced.

-"We have to ask Master Shirmin for help without letting the captain know,"

#######

In another accommodation area, a group of twenty formed a circle. They all had bandage like black clothes wrapped around their bodies from bottom to top, leaving only their eyes exposed. However, even their eyes were pitch black and soulless looking.

They stood in place for a bit with dark mist emitting from their figures. In their midst, the dark mist formed a pair of '1' shaped green eyeballs that seemed to be speaking.

-"Have you made confirmation?"

"We need more time Prime Vessel Ji," The captain spoke with a raspy tone.

-"The kid, is he worthy?"

"He is fighting the possession of the crown.

The next day arrived very quickly and the IYSOP participants began to make their way across to the arena.

"Anyone would think they have arrived at the edge of the fourth disk if they saw this," Gustav muttered.

("Indeed... however, you and I are aware that there is something down there,") The system added.

"It is pretty deep though," Gustav eyes squinted.

There was no way to tell if anyone was down there from this height but Gustav's intuition told him there was definitely danger and fortune at the bottom or at least on the way to it.

"You're not telling me everything again, right?" Gustav said with a suspicious tone.

("Since you already know how things are why do you still bother asking?") The system retorted.

"Tch," Gustav proceeded to step forward at this point.

Fwwhiiii~

His body began to rapidly fall through the air into the depths of the unknown.

Surprisingly as he descended, the darkness had reduced due to the glowing lines which he occasionally phased through during his descent.

However, mist became visible upon further descent which become denser and denser, impairing visual capabilities.

The mist around him had become do dense that one couldn't even see their own body but Gustav's high perception made it so this wasn't a problem.

Twenty thousand feet~

Thirty thousand feet~

Ten thousand feet~

Twenty thousand feet~

Thirty thousand feet~

Forty thousand feet~

Fifty thousand feet~

It felt like Gustav had been falling for ages but he didn't wish to increase his speed just yet because he was unaware of what to expect.

Hundred thousand feet~

Hundred and ten thousand feet~

Hundred and twenty thousand feet~

Hundred and forty thousand feet~

Hundred and sixty thousand feet~

Two hundred thousand feet~

Three hundred thousand feet~

As Gustav continued to descend, he began to feel moist. Usually the dense fog was enough to make one feel moist but this was different.
