Monarch of Darkness, Arsene

Chapter 741 Lets Trade



Mia!

Startled by the cry, I darted into action; racing towards the entrance, a wave of abyssal qi whipped through the bloodstone cave. Cold to the very bone, my lips slowly arched in amusement.

“Mother!” Mia shouted, but before she could make another sound, I snatched the little child by the throat, tightening my grip so tightly around her tiny neck I felt her shudder run through my fingers and up my shoulder.

“No talking,” I coldly demanded, enjoying the pale tinge of terror.

Summoning Freya from the Ring of Bael, who should have had enough time to come back to herself. The queen remained sprawled over the ground, smiling with closed eyes, her legs still shuttering with pleasure.

“Freya,” I said rather pridefully, slapping her cheeks.

“Hmm~” She moaned, slowly opening her scarlet eyes clouded with a blazing fire. “Master?” Snapping her eyes open, she hoisted herself up. “Master!”

Tossing her a better robe instead of her torn one, which was too revealing, Freya blushed but quickly clothed herself.

I couldn’t be bothered to inform her of all that transpired, so I merely beckoned her to follow. Dragging Mia, while Rey Nala glared but seemingly had the common sense to keep her trap shut, my fingers pierced Mia’s soft, tender flesh as she released a cry.

“Mia!” A warm voice thundered as I gazed at the seven female ninjas

My god, this is like a dream come true! A shame they are enemies; I never had—

Turning back into the depths of the cave where I knew Lilith was watching, I knew what type of cosplay we would try next. And with Freya, Sweet. Sweet God! Thank you!

Returning my gaze to the one with blond hair but pure scarlet eyes. The apparent leader, I greeted. ” Hello there. I am Arsene Snow. Sup!”

The scarlet eye beauty whose expression was masked, while her body was…well damn. That ass was a work of god! Or, I guess, in this case, the abyss glared.

“Ren, you see this?” I asked, turning to look at the somewhat shocked lad.

“Arsene, focus,” He said in a strained tone, eyeing the beauties.

“Release her,” The leader said.

“You mean your daughter? It would seem like your child needs a bit more training.” I calmly replied, putting aside my lust. “How about we make a trade?”

“Boy, you—”

My fingers dug deeper until I could feel Mia’s fiery blood whipping past my fingers. Turning her cheeks a deadly purple and black, I kept my expression serene.

“You were saying?” 𝗼𝐯𝗹.𝐞𝘁

“You bastard!”

“Let’s start with names. Just yours, missy.” I kindly informed as I fluttered Mia’s body with abyssal night qi to make sure her body would need air by attacking her major organs.

“Jinx,” She uttered darkly.

I blinked, and Lil Arsene shuttered.

“Mr. Snow,” Lilith coldly called to me, slowly making her way out of the entrance with Avar by her side. “Now, I wonder what you are thinking?”

My stomach dipped, but my expression didn’t change in the least. “Just thinking how Jinx is a lovely name for a daughter.”

“You’re really saying that with a boner?”

My cheeks burned for a moment. Clearing my throat, I coughed, noticing the look of amazement within Jinx as she stared wholly at Lilith. ” Well, Jinx. For your daughter, tell me about these Bloodstones.”

Recapturing Jinx’s attention, she hesitantly nodded, ” Y-yes.” she said, her gaze frequently flicking back to Lilith. ” The blood— Wait, I need assurances.” She sharply uttered, catching herself, glaring at me.

My gaze narrowed, and my grip grew tighter for a moment as I felt Mia’s neck on the verge of snapping. Although I figured she would live through a fractured neck. She wasn’t a mortal. Who knows.

“I don’t think you are in the position to argue with me, darling. Despite what my expression might say, I am not a patient person.”

Fear crept there way into Jinx’s eyes as she shuttered. Lowering her hands towards her Ninjato on the back of her waist, I noticed a few kunai also by her waist. Unsure which she was reaching for, I maintained my serene expression, but the moment she struck, Mia would explode into a fine mist. I don’t like playing the hostage game. Not when the enemy could kill me instantly; all seven were Mid-Gods, and I was sure their battle prowess was higher than Master.

Just these seven could conquer the Bed of Chaos.

“Arsene, calm down. Same for you, jinx,” Ren decided to say,” There is no reason to make things difficult. Rey Nala, how would you feel in completing the trade? Mia trust you, right?” he said, glancing at the young teen, who nodded almost immediately with fear present in her eyes. “That should mean something, right?”

Jinx shuttered, and her gaze darted to Lilith, who, to my displeasure, nodded. She wasn’t supposed to interfere.

“I would be more than happy to trade. We have no issue with the Denizens of the Abyss. We have already befriended many. There is no need to make matters more complicated.” Said Rey Nala softly, placing her arms over my shoulder.

I frowned, pondering over why I needed to meet another halfway. I swear these bitches are lucky I can’t kill them all right now. I’d tear their heads off and bathe in their damn blood.

Pursing my lips, I sighed, ” Fine,” Tossing Mia to Rey Nala, who happily caught her. Hearing the gasp for air over her pale cheeks, I rolled my eyes. “You guys are so soft. Just tell me about the damn bloodstones.”

Jinx nodded. ” They are the core of our weapons, medicine, and everything we use. Bloodstones are a rare resource desired by even Myriad Gods. However, for them to form, they need to be near another bloodstone. While they cannot compare to objects that require the Drew of Chaos, Bloodstones are a close second, found only in the Abyss.”

Star-struck by this information, I glanced back at the cave and then to Jinx, “These caves are yours, right?”

“They were cultivated by the first generation of my family’s line.” She remarked, her gaze never leaving Mia. “Now, hand me, my daughter.”

“A deal is a deal,” I mentioned. Despite having more questions, I glanced down at the Ring of Bael with a single question in mind.

Was the Ring of Bael formed by Bloodstones?
