Strings Of Domination - Chapter 134

Time seemed to slow down in the eyes of Nash the very moment the seemingly first prince of the Sargon Family swung his dagger at him, hoping to cut out his left eye with the sharp and curved blade of the weapon.

“Hmph.” Nash although being surprised and confused by the reason why the first prince attacked them, in reality, he didn’t care at all!

The first prince appeared out of nowhere and without even the slightest warning assaulted first Amy then him in an attempt where he wished to kill them! Furthermore, if it wouldn’t have been for him reacting just in time, Amy’s head would be rolling on the ground long ago without her knowing what took her life away from her!

Thus, after all this Nash knew he had no reason to hold back at all despite currently being in the middle of the Sargon Family’s palace!

‘Also, this is a perfect time to try that out.’ Nash thought in his heart and without hesitation used 10 units of essence to activate his Eternal Dance.

Whoosh!

With a quick push with his feet to the side while also using his other free arm to grab Amy by her waist, Nash pushed the dagger he held backward and avoided the strike with seemingly smooth movement before only coming to a complete halt when he was about 5 meters away.

“You stay here.” letting go of Amy who was still speechless by the sudden change of events and looked a little red by the way she was grabbed on her waist, Nash stomped on the ground gently and dashed forward without waiting for a reply.

“Are you okay?” quickly running next to Amy to see if she sustained any injuries Miles asked with a slightly worried tone.

He, just like Nash noticed that something was awry before the first prince emerged from the shadows, but unfortunately, he had no ability nor speed to stop the attack. Naturally, he began to draw symbols with insane speed and was ready to use attack, but strangely, Flake stopped him just in time.

“I apologize if my brother made things a little unexpected and awkward, but please let him fight Emerald. Also, don’t worry, he won’t kill him, he is just testing his strength.” Flake’s words still rung in Miles’s head and subconsciously shifted his gaze to the side where Flake and Bane stood.

And as if he felt his gaze, Flake turned toward him and showed a calm smile together with a grateful nod, showing he was thankful for understanding what he said and not using his ability to interrupt the two’s battle.

“Shouldn’t we help him?” Amy on the side asked with a complicated look, but once she heard what Flake did and said to Miles she looked surprised and asked, “Testing his strength? Why? Didn’t we prove already what we are capable of doing?”

“You two maybe did, but not him.” an unfamiliar voice appeared from the side and Amy and Miles subconsciously shifted their heads behind only to see two individuals, one male, and one female dressed in royal robes approaching them while from every corner of the garden creatures clad in armor and wielding different weapons stepped out of the shadows.

“Father, mother.” Flake and Bane walked over when they noticed the two individuals and bowed slightly.

The woman who was wearing a long dress with the Sargon Family’s colors of azure blue and golden visible on it and which barely showed any skin except for her slim legs that appeared only for a split fraction of a second whenever she walked, looked extremely beautiful, to the point where she almost seemed to be a goddess!

Long and silk smooth waist-long, snow-white hair which fell on her shoulder and behind her back like a river fall, eyes as azure blue as the clearest sky, skin flawless like a piece of gem, and an aura that demanded respect from anyone that looked at her!

The woman was the literal definition of a piece of art that was created through passion and care by the very gods upon birth!

As for the man next to her, he was the real definition of a warrior who fought through thousands of battles and lived through hundreds of life and death situations from which he arose as the very victor every single time!

Tall frame, bulging muscles, and a face that was both eternally handsome but frightening from the scar that went across his left eye all the way down to the left side of his neck. His hair and eyes were the exact same as Flake, however, in the total contrast to his son, his being was not calm at all but heavy, in a way where it felt almost as if he was a crazy torrent ready to break out from his shackles in any given moment and start chaos!

Though the scariest fact about him was still not that, his whole aura that emitted out from his whole existence, which was way above both Flake, Bane, and even the first prince together with the woman on his side, seemingly above the Warmaster Rank!

‘Soul Devourer Rank! He is at the Soul Devourer Rank!’ Amy and Miles quickly recognized the presence which was leaking out of the King of the Sargon Family and couldn’t help but feel as their whole bodies began to tremble uncontrollably!

Right now, they were standing before a being which with his sole existence alone was capable of wiping out an entire army while also having the ability to travel through space for a limited time without any external help and without dying!

They could easily get crushed into meat paste from a single flick of this creature and even then that would have been a huge underestimation!

The man whose name was Helio looked at the two in front of him and only after thinking for a while did he shift his gaze toward the direction where Nash and the first prince were fighting, exchanging blows one after another.

“Although the two of you have shown what you are capable of doing during your time on Planet Rover, my son stated your friend named Emerald yet to show his real strength despite using an extremely powerful Domination Art and an Ancient Treasure,” Helio spoke with his arms crossed before his chest.

“Huh?” both Amy and Miles looked at each other slightly confused.

Didn’t show his entire potential? Like, yeah, he really didn’t use his Souls or ability to replicate other creatures’ Legacy, but those were abilities that he can’t and won’t use until it was not significantly crucial.

‘Could it be that they have discovered about his mysterious Domination Art?’ Amy wondered but quickly shook her head as that was very unlikely. But if they didn’t then why did the King of the Sargon Family state that Nash had yet to show what he was truly capable of doing?

‘Is he perhaps hiding something even greater?’ Amy thought in her heart, but the more she thought about it the more she knew it was definitely not the case, or else she would have known about it or at least has seen him using it.

Amy was pretty confident that apart from his mysterious ability to manipulate other beings and also collect and control souls’ of the dead through a special power, Nash possessed no other seemingly heaven-defying power which was stronger or more useful.

‘Then what is that?’ Amy narrowed her eyes and watched with clenched fingers as Nash avoided the first prince’s daggers with movements that made him look as if he was dancing!

“What a beautiful and powerful movement technique. I have never seen such Domination Art before. No wonder Serio is failing to land a perfect hit on him.” the queen of the Sargon Family, whose name, in fact, was Ayanna and was a peak Warmaster Rank being, said with a nonchalant look, only her tone of voice showing slight admiration.

“He indeed possesses a powerful movement technique and I am pretty confident he can beat anyone with that alone, but unfortunately, his opponent this time is Serio, a true genius when it comes to learning movement techniques!” Helio exclaimed his thoughts as he watched Serio push his dagger forward, opening a small wound on Nash’s right cheek which immediately began to bleed.

“See? He already figured out the way that movement technique works. Now, if Emerald does not wish to lose, he has to take things more seriously.” Helio said with visible pride in his tone despite only showing a serious look, but soon his face changed and a deep frown appeared on his face.

Swoosh!

Swish! Swish! Swish!

“Huh? Why can’t Serio land another attack on him?” Ayanna seemed to notice what Helio and even her she seemed confused, but even before she could have gotten an answer something unexpected happened.

Whoosh!

Bam!

With the sound of a breeze, Nash avoided Serio’s dagger which targeted his heart, and with a feet movement that made one feel his bones below his waist had been twisted and turned he appeared next to Serio in a flash and swung his arm, slamming his fist right into his face which contained power just enough to send him flying across the air!
