I Have Seven Dragon Souls In a cultivation world

Chapter 188 - A Created Grievance



Chapter 188 – A Created Grievance

'I've had my fun. It's time to end this.'

The Red dragon seemed to share his thoughts as it let off a mad roar, causing the flames to expand at an almost unbelievable rate!

Now that Dante was done playing, it took only a few moments before the entire crowd of zombies was cleared.

Dante knew that with this development, the corpse Master could not remain calm.

And just on cue, a zombie suddenly lit up in a burst of blood coloured energy.

'Found you.' thought Dante 

Stretching forth his hand, the flames stirred as streams of golden energy were continually injected inside the flames as they gradually shaped into the form a humongous dragon claw!

Dante clenched his hand and the flame claw, mirroring his movements, tightly wrapped around this abnormal zombie.

With a wave of his hand, Dante brought the zombie closer to him.

"So sir Corpse Master, has your opinion changed?"

As Dante spoke, his serpentine eyes narrowed. As he looked at the struggling corpse, he now held between his claws.

But Dante's attempts at intimidation were futile and even he himself knew.

It would take a miracle to intimidate a man he knew would be hundreds of miles away, controlling these corpses with absolute safety.

"Kekeke! Lord Dragon Son, you really are impressive! 

It seems that I can let you live for now, but soon the day will come when all-"

Before more words could leave the zombie's mouth, the gigantic claw clamped down, brutally crushing the corpse inside.

'Mad!' Thought Dante

'that corpse master is nothing other than a madman!'

turning away from the crushed corpse, Dante took a second to look at his surroundings.

'Tch!' It looks like I had too much fun.'

The floor was charred completely black, with small pockets of magma still visible.

Piles of black, charred corpses were laid out sporadically

With a click of his fingers, a wave of fire burst forth and engulfed the corpses, burning until all that was left was a pile of ashes that soon blew in the wind.

As Dante was walking back to the villa, he noticed the group standing on the balcony looking at him.

So he slowly floated up to meet them.

"So how was it?" Asked Rebecca.

"Did you have fun?"

As soon as Dante heard this, a smug smile crept into his face 

"Most definitely!" replied Dante

Seeing this sight, Lennox finally couldn't hold it in any more

"Damn!" Cried Lennox 

"I'm so jealous!"

"You got to enjoy such a good fight all by yourself! Do you know how much effort it took for me not to jump in and join you?"

"Haha!" Chuckled Dante.

"You shouldn't be too down. The way things are looking, there's still going to be much more fighting left for you."

Tired of such a childish discussions Klent asked the real question that had been on everyone's mind.

"So Dante, how was his strength?"

As Dante heard this, the casual smile faded from his face, being replaced by a much more stoic expression.

"Unknown."

"Unknown?" Replied Lennox in confusion

"What happened right now was just a teaser, a test if you will."

"All I know is that we passed this test." said Dante 

" I know this because as I was fighting, I could feel countless more auras forming around the compound, at least ten times what we saw just now, all with countless martial journeyman levels inside of them."

obviously, he thought that we wouldn't be easy to take on right now or else, it would only take a few seconds for all those creatures to come pouring into this building."

As Dante finished speaking, an ugly expression formed on the faces of everybody present.

Countless Martial Journeymans?

Dante said this casually, but this was a really terrifying thought.

Rebecca, the one with the highest cultivation present, had just passed the midlevels of the martial journeyman realm.

Hell! even Lennox and Klent were still in the Martial Novice realm! 

Although it might seem like nothing to Dante, who had the terrifying ability to fight across realms, but for the rest of them this was really life threatening.

The thoughts of what could have happened if the corpse Master wasn't deterred by Dante's strength sent shivers down their spines. 

For the first time during this mission, serious doubts were forming in their minds.

"Dante." Said Rebecca 

"You originally said that this mission investigating the disappearance of people was only a martial journeyman level mission. But the way things are looking, this seems like a Martial adept level mission."

Silence

No words needed to be said.

Everyone understood the severity of this situation.

They were already struggling to reach the levels needed for the first Martial Adept level mission, with them even being forced to recruit soldiers from the nearby cities

But now if you added in the mysterious Corpse Master with an unknown level of strength.

Things were really turning grim..

Dante knew he had to say something.

"Look." said Dante 

"We don't have to do both things at once. 

We can take out time to deal with this mysterious Corpse Master, and if things don't go well after that, we can just abandon the mission for the bandit camp." explained Dante 

We've already created a grievance with this man. 

It would be unsafe to let such a dangerous individual continue running around. It's best for everyone involved if we can get rid of this threat as soon as possible 

Besides, I wouldn't feel good if we went back on our word so soon.

As Dante was speaking, he looked towards Clay.

Hearing this, Clay  gave a massive sigh of relief.

As Dante and Rebecca were speaking,  his heart had practically been in his mouth the whole time! 

Dante and the rest were his only hope of saving the rest of his village 

They were his only hope of revenge.

If before he had any naïve ideas of doing anything, tonight's display had really put things into perspective
