"Boss, that bastard Tharin was acting like a scaredy cat for a whole day and finding that group of people. But from what I heard, they left the town."
Inside one of the mansions in the town, a group of fifteen people gathered and faced a man sitting on a chair, Kolak. He had green-colored skin, a muscular body, and elf-like ears.
Kolak was a 3rd Ring powerhouse, and in his hand, there were two rings as he had two energy sources, Mana and Metaphysical.
Of the fifteen people in the group, eleven of them were 2nd Ring powerhouses, while four were 1st Ring powerhouses who had recently ascended.
"Humph, since they left the town, we don't need to worry about it," Kolak said with a snort before he looked at one of the men. "More importantly, what about the task I gave you?"
"Yes, boss. We investigated the matter," the man whom Kolak looked at said with a nod but hesitated to continue.
Kolak's expression turned grim as he asked, "Speak. Where is she?"
"B-Boss… she ran away to the 2nd layer with her family."
Kolak clicked his tongue and said in annoyance, "Why did she have to court death by going to the 2nd layer? If she just became mine, she could live comfortably here."
"Yes, boss. She was stupid. Now, some other man in 2nd layer will be after her unless she manages to join some powerful sect or organisati-"
*Boom!*
*Roar!!*
*Awoo!*
The people of the Black Lightning gang were startled and quickly turned around and prepared to fight.
"Who?!" Kolak shouted as he stood up from his chair. A red aura covered him as energy swirled around him.
The door of the mansion broke open as Arkhen and others made an entry.
Lucious, Blancia, and Ryan were weaker, but they still wanted to join the fight and support, so Arkhen took them out.
Lucius and Blanca still needed to evolve to the 2nd realm's power stage, but Ruan automatically evolved along with Arkhen and became a 1st Ring Beast.
"That leader is mine. You all handle the rest. Tharin, you only need to intervene if one of my people is in trouble," Arkhen said with a grin before his eyes produced mystical dark green and dark gold wisps.
"What?! Y-You are 1st Ring powerhouse, and you want to fight against Kolak?" Tharin was dumbfounded and felt that Arkhen was courting death unless he would call that demonic beauty.
Kolak also heard that and snorted. "Brat, you want to fight me? You all, let him come through. I want to see if his tickles can make me laugh."
Arkhen smiled and walked past gang members, standing just two meters from Kolak.
"Go ahead and tickle me," Kolak crossed his arm with a smirk. 'A puny 1st Ring powerhouse wants to beat me? Pff....'
"Thanks," Arkhen nodded with a grin before a burst of soul power exuded from him, and his pair of dominating eyes glowed before Kolak's expression changed.
Kolak felt an overwhelming soul power crashing into his soul and jolting him as he nearly lost consciousness. But just when he thought it was over, a pair of eyes appeared deep in him, along with a bunch of chains that started binding his soul.
Empyrean's Authority!
Arkhen consumed 90% of his soul energy to use the active power of his second Endowment Ability, Empyrean's Authority!
[Good. He doesn't have any ability that can let him resist Empyrean's Authority]
"Boss… What happened?"
"Watch out! They've started attacking."
*BOOM!*
Sierra and others launched their attacks, and in a few seconds, the entire mansion was blasted apart.
Luna's eyes crackled with lightning as a thunder hammer manifested in the sky before instantly crashing down and killing a man.
Her lightning element, Overlord Lightning, was pure offensive lighting power, which made her lightning-attributed skill, Demolishing Lightning Hammer, super potent.
Combining that with her Physique, Raiga Thunder of Divine Might physique, Lina's build was on pure offense except for her charm affinity that she awakened because of her Succubus inheritance blessing.
Although she only got one affinity from her Endowment Star, her build was powerful! Those who didn't come prepared would get instantly demolished by her set of skills that consisted of quick movement and pure offense!
"Uhh, we are short on numbers," Gerald said as he barely dodged an attack but was still injured as a slash appeared on his chest. "And weaker."
Sherly wryly smiled and saw Sierra killing a 2nd Ring powerhouse with her mighty spear. 'She is more powerful than me now. Damn, I have to catch up.'
Arkhen didn't participate in the battle and just watched while sitting on a chair. Kolak was now entirely under his control and stood beside him like a servant.
Tharin was confused, but he quickly moved around in the sky and helped in the fight whenever he saw someone in danger.
The people of the town were watching colorful blasts in the sky and shockwaves spreading.
"What is going on?"
"Those two gangs finally fought, I guess."
"Those two leaders are there, but the situation is different. There's also a third party, and why is Kolak not moving even though his men are getting killed?"
The battle was happening quickly.
Isabella occasionally attacked but most used her skills to support others along with Meya.
Evelyn was like a tank and was creating shields and barriers since her Earth affinity's elemental power, Dural Earth, was more defense-oriented than offensive.
The interesting thing was her Ethereal Affinity scope. It had ethereal space law aspects, allowing her to see far and wide and materializing her attacks out of their normal range.
She couldn't teleport but could manifest her skills anywhere she wished, as long as that place was within her vision scope!
Since her Scope affinity also reached level 2, as she gained more understanding of Scope, she could do much more than just manifesting skills out of their ranges.
She could also spread the power of skills and increase their area of effect on… not just her skills but also the skills of her allies!
Essentially, she could buff everyone's skills!
