Strings Of Domination - Chapter 86

“Quick, wear these.” after opening the lid of the crate they have brought on board, Nash pulled several armors out and handed them over to Amy and Miles.

Both were armors that were worn by the Thousand Bloods he has killed way back when they hijacked the spaceship, so their size was almost a perfect match thanks to their time to choose from many.

Or at least it was a perfect match for Nash and Amy, but for Miles who already had a very thin frame than the two, his was slightly big. At the very moment, he looked like a little kid trying to wear his parents’ clothes, giving him a rather comical appearance.

“Is this for real? Is there no other armor I can wear?” Miles felt like crying as the helmet on his face occasionally slid forward, hindering him from seeing whatever was before him.

“Just bear with it. We will buy you a new one once we get out of here.” Amy said calmly, but if one looked at her face one would find it pretty obvious she wished to giggle a little bit.

Miles, on the other hand, felt angry and wished to say something when suddenly the door on the side was opened and several creatures, each hailing from a different race entered the room, wearing differently styled and colored armors and weapons.

“It’s okay. Just act rela-, …H-Hey! A-Are you feeling okay?” Nash wished to tell Amy and Miles to just act calmly and naturally when suddenly he noticed the stiff and slightly trembling complexion of Miles.

Currently, he was looking like someone whose whole face was carved out of stone!

“Feeling okay? I am okay. I feel perfectly okay. Why? Do I look like someone who is not feeling okay?” Miles turned to look at Nash with a stiff smile, sweat oozing out of his face like a river!

Nash opened his mouth to answer those questions, but even before he could have spoken a stern voice appeared in the room, halting him from speaking.

“Hey, you three there! Why are you standing there like statues? Pick that crate up and take it to the entrance now! We have arrived at Planet Gaia.”

Nash and Amy glanced at the creature and seeing his cold and piercing stare they nodded and quickly picked up the crate. As for Miles, Nash had to smack him in the back of his head to move, accidentally forcing his helmet to slid down before his eyes once again.

“Tsk, newbies. They always slack off. Should I teach them a lesson or two later?” the creature who seemingly was a Silver Dragon sneered but at the same time licked his lips before looking at the rest of the creatures behind him, “Naturally, when I said pick the crates up, I didn’t only mean them. Move your asses too! All of you!”

“Yes, Lord Soaz!” all the creatures roared in unison, and without daring to waste a single second longer in the storeroom each grabbed a crate or two, carrying them to the entrance with hurried steps.

“Come on, Miles! Get hold of yourself! We have been almost gotten caught because of you!” Amy whispered at Miles who was currently as stiff as a puppet.

Nash took a glance at Miles’ Indicator silently and watching as his Fear Level slowly but surely began to creep upward he sighed and activated his Dominator’s Domain.

[Dominator’s Domain activated!]

[Choose an Emotion Level freely to alter!]

“Miles, look into my eyes.” Nash placed his hand on Miles’ shoulder and made him look into his eyes.

“Just take a deep breath, and concentrate on your heartbeat.”

Miles felt a warm sensation sweep through his body and watched as for some reason his previous fear began to gradually vanish, replaced by joy all of a sudden.

“Thank you. Now I am truly fine.” after taking a deep breath, Miles showed a smile as he adjusted his helmet once again.

Nash smiled upon seeing that Miles was no longer prim nor looked like a piece of wooden puppet and quickly looked around.

They were currently standing in a huge room with many other creatures already waiting to depart the ship. He could even see the figures of Flake, Zoar, and the rest of the creatures that went to do business on Planet Nelea on the front, making him feel rather nervous for some reason.

‘Well, all of them are powerful existences, no wonder I feel so unease around them.’ Nash thought in his heart and shifted his gaze at Amy who seemed to be just as anxious as him too.

Thud!

After a few minutes of silence, the interior of the spaceship shook gently indicating they have finally landed. And soon enough, the huge gate of Argon began to open, revealing a sight that earned the awed gasp of Nash and the two on his side even though they tried to resist the urge!

Huge skyscrapers on every side, holograms floating in sheer air showing different things, long streets with stalls on each corner, and flying vehicles and creatures flying in the sky.

There were even terrifying beasts that seemed to be mounted by other beings!

Furthermore, to make the whole city even more breathtaking, all the buildings, streets, windows, and objects were covered and wrapped up in neon tubes that emitted different colors even though it was daytime at the moment.

As for them, they were inside the very center of the city on top of a towering pillar that was constructed to let Argon and other merchant ships land there safely!

“Take the boxes to the signaled locations!” suddenly the voice of Soaz sounded, immediately making all the armored creatures to picked their crates up and depart the ship one by one before leaving to designated zones.

“Let’s go. Just follow me.” Nash whispered to Amy and Miles as he picked the crate up and began to walk toward a point where not a lot of eyes watched but could easily run into the depth of the city if they got close enough.

However, they didn’t even reach the edge of the platform when suddenly all three of their bodies trembled unconsciously before the sight around them darkened and a chilling voice appeared behind them.

“I said, bring the crates to the designated areas. Where do the three of you think are going?”

Nash, Amy, and Miles slowly turned their heads around only to see a muscular figure standing before them with arms crossed before his chest, his deep black eyes staring down at them with chilling coldness.

It was Lord Soaz, emitting an aura almost similar to Amael’s!

‘We are done for!’ Amy thought in her heart while Miles just stared with a stiff complexion at Soaz while his helmet slid forward, blocking his vision.

Nash, on the other hand, looked calm and silently moved his finger, one that was attached with one of his newly acquired Life Strings!

“I asked the three of you a question! Why the fuck are you bringing that crate over here when that crate’s spot is at the opposite side? I hope you will have a satisfactory answer or don’t blame me if I-” Soaz was about to take a step forward to pressure the three even more when suddenly a commotion halted his steps and attracted his attention.

Clang!

A sharp sound akin to metal clashing against metal resounded in the distance while a powerful ripple swept through the air sending those with weaker physical strength flying in an instant!

“Hm?” Soaz turned around and narrowed his eyes, but when he saw how two Silver Dragons started a fight his eyes widened, and blurted out loudly, “The fuck? Gruze? What is that fucker attacked the prince?”
