Chapter 1067: Chapter 1067: The Appetizer



[Behind you.]

The Grand Elder quickly turned his floating throne around as soon as he heard Ahor Zai's statement, but there was no one there. Even with Elder Apo lighting the area, all they could really see was the empty gray walls they had already been used to seeing.

Everyone remained vigilant; all of their eyes just looking everywhere in order to catch a glimpse of their menacing intruder. After several seconds of this, however, Elder Skeem broke the silence.

"...We're all going to die," Elder Skeem shook his worm-like head, "Elder S'adar and Tedi are species of power and physical prowess, and the only warrior we have now is Elder Zorah - he is not a match against this intruder."

"...I agree," Elder Zorah did not refute Elder Skeem's words at all; his large horns just lightly flickered as he looked at the Grand Elder, "All of us should go."

"Considering it has already killed Tedi and Elder S'adar, I do not think it has any intention of letting any of us go," Elder Skeem once again shook his head, "The only way we have any chance of surviving this situation is through diplomacy. It spoke to Tedi before killing her." "...Who are you, Riley Ross? And why are you doing this!?" The Grand Elder quickly heeded Elder Skeem's words as he started looking around the dome for any signs of Riley. And when he and the others thought Riley Ross wouldn't show himself, he did.

"Show yourself!" The only one that did not see him was the Grand Elder. His eyes, however, started to squint as he noticed the others were actually all looking at him. And before he could wonder why, the tiny Grand Elder slightly looked up... only to see Riley looking down at him.

The Grand Elder was standing on Riley's lap, who was now suddenly seated on his throne; he did not even feel anything at all.

"Wha-!!!"

The Grand Elder was just the size of Riley's arm, and it became even more obvious as Riley placed his hand on the Grand Elder's small head which was as small as a pool ball, grabbing it just tight enough that the Grand Elder would think he could actually struggle himself free.

But of course, Riley had no intention at all to let him go as he just looked at the other Elders one by one with a very wide smile on his face.T/his chapter is updat/ed by nov(ê(l)biin.c/o/m

"Every time I meet any of you, there seems to be a pattern of decapitated heads," Riley let out a small chuckle as he looked at Elder S'adar's head on the gray floor, "Although I suppose it would be a little premature to call it a pattern since it has really only happened twice."

"Twice...?" Elder Zorah squinted his eyes as he looked at Elder Skeem, who just quickly focused back to Riley.

"Twice? Does that mean you have been to this place before, Riley Ross?" Elder Skeem tried his best to sound as calm as possible, "But I do not recall reading of you in the Common Council's billions of years of history - Could it be... that you are from a time before that?"

"I suppose I could tell you," Riley let out a small hum as he tilted his head to the side, "But I will not."

And with those words, he also tilted the Grand Elder's small head; except he tilted it way more than 30 degrees, it was more like a 210 turn. He then started violently shaking the Grand Elder's body, and everyone just watched as the rest of his body was blown away as soon as the Grand Elder's neck was torn apart from the sheer force of the shake.

"Oh," Riley blinked a couple of times as he looked at the Grand Elder's torn head that was left on his hand, "I did not really mean to do that, I thought the Grand Elder would be more durable."

Riley then let out a small but very deep sigh as he just placed the Grand Elder's head beside him on the throne. And soon, the throne started to move around as Riley once again looked at the remaining Elders one by one.

He did this for a few seconds until his eyes finally settled on Elder Zorah.

"Hello again, Elder Goat," Riley smiled as he stepped off the throne and just started casually walking toward Elder Zorah, "I suppose we should just get started, then - Ahor Zai, please turn on all the power again."

He struggled to get up, but the only thing he could really do was slam his waving fists on the floor while Riley had him completely pinned down. And if the uncomfortable sawing and gnawing sound was an indication of how much pain Elder Zorah was feeling, it was almost as if his body was going numb; except instead of feeling nothing, he was feeling everything at a

constant wave.

And soon, blood began to shed from his horns.

The blood, however, was not from Elder Zorah at all, but from Elder Bato; his stone-like

exterior, shattering and turning into powder.

And perhaps the most shocked of them all was Riley as he stopped grinding Elder Bato when

he noticed that the blood was actually coming from him.

"Interesting physiology," Riley looked at Elder Bato's mangled body no, it was not

mangled at all, he could even say it was smoother than before. The only problem was that Elder Bato now looked like an extremely smooth steak due to his flesh.

And that just gave Riley an incredible idea.

Riley tugged and pulled Elder Zorah's horns.

"Gah-!?" And as soon as he howled in pain, Riley quickly placed Elder Bato inside Elder

Zorah's mouth. Well...

...at least he tried to.

Elder Bato was too big to fit inside Elder Zorah's goat mouth, and so, in reality, Riley did not

place it inside, he smashed through his lips and teeth and just practically forced Elder Bato into Elder Zorah's throat; making sure he stuck it in there and using his entire arm to do so.

"So..."

"Gkh!"

Riley then kicked Elder Zorah's throat, causing him to just gasp in pain. As for Riley, the smile on his face never truly fades away.

"Shall we get started then, Elder Zorah?" Riley casually said after doing everything he did to the Common Council, "I will make this as slow for you but as quick as possible for everyone who wants to see...

...I still need to go to Theran, you see. But first, they also need to see that I killed everyone here... Do not worry, only Elder Zorah would be tortured."
