《Armipotent 》Chapter 246: New Objective - Part 2
Advertisement
Arina healed the surviving Royal Knight. Of course, she was not healing them completely, she healed them so they did not die, just that. Then the Royal Knights were locked in a building.
The High Cleric kept following the man who was her Master now. The atmosphere around him was heavy and gloomy, affecting the others too, especially his party member.
The red-haired girl had told her Master how the young girl died. But there was no change in his expression, he did not blame anyone either. The man just gathered in a building.
Arina stood behind her master and lowered her head. She was the healer but she could not heal Delia because she instantly died when the sword pierced her heart. But she felt guilty as she kept lowering her head.
Tang Shaoyang was also staring at the ground, a scene replayed in his head. It was the excited Delia who showed him the big bed in the inn.
He did not vent his frustration to his subordinate for failing to protect her. It was his incompetence who failed her, he could not protect her. If he returned early or if he returned together with Chief Rick, Delia would still be alive.
He was blaming himself, not his subordinate. He regretted he could not return early, but he knew drowning in remorse would not bring her back alive. He had to move forward, and of course, revenge was a must.
Arina then saw her Master looking at her. She did not dare to meet his emotionless eyes. He did not look like someone who was angry but she could feel the man was holding up his fury behind his emotionless eyes.
"Do you know anything about the Royal Knight? If you know something, you better spill it out, everything," His voice was flat and toneless, but she felt apprehensive.
Taking a deep breath, she started to speak, of course, she knew the Royal Knight. People who lived in Waskin City knew them.

"They are the city's force, Waskin Family's force. Compared to Guardian Knight, they are lacking, but they are an elite force who graduated from the academy."
"Waskin Family? The Lord of the Waskin City, do you mean?" He continued with a question.
"Yes, Royal Knight is a direct force under Lord Roman's order. Only The Lord could order them directly," Arina nodded her head.
"Then, do you know the relationship between the Waskin Family and the Church? Are they related in any way?" More questions came from Tang Shaoyang.
"I don't know if they related, but the Church usually needs the Lord's consent to build a church. We normal people don't know much about the backstory behind the two forces," Arina shook her head.
'I thought these Royal Knights were from Realm Tower, but why did the Lord meddle? Why do they hunt us too?' Tang Shaoyang was trying to find out whether the two forces were related, but it was pointless.
'Nah, whether they are related or not, that does not matter,' Tang Shaoyang shook his head and scanned his subordinates, "We changed our goal, we are not going to survive but to slaughter. Our target is the Church and– Nah, our target is to destroy Waskin City, we will slaughter everyone under the Waskin Family and anything related to the Church!"
Arina was shocked when she heard the man made the declaration. While the cleric was in disbelief, Tang Shaoyang's subordinates had expected this. Three of them had experienced how scary their Boss was when someone tried to hurt his people, killing his girl? That was the trigger that should be never triggered, at least that was his opinion.
"When will we attack them, Boss?" Fan Rui was the first one to ask. The young man seemed to want to fight as well.
"Not now, of course. You guys are too weak, get your level to Level 100 in a month, then we can start our attack. Beast Stampede, that is the time we will attack the city!" Tang Shaoyang then turned toward Gu Yingjie. The cheerful young man was now down, this was his first time killing his own kind. He was not mentally prepared for the battle against humans.

"How's your injury?" He asked the young boy, "I am fine. The healing potion is working well…" Gu Yingjie replied with his small voice.
"Good then, we will move out of the village in thirty minutes, but before that, I want you all to gather the dead Royal Knights' head. Get their heads for me!
Gu Yingjie's face paled, and even Cao Yuntai's expression fell. Killing the people to survive and beheading the dead were totally two different things. But their Boss seemed not to care about their thoughts as he walked out of the room, "I am going to meet Chief Rick."
Chief Rick and the villagers were gathering the dead bodies to bury them. Cries were heard as the villagers mourn for the dead. Arina did not stay in the building, she followed Tang Shaoyang.
"Why are you following me? You should help them to get the heads!" Tang Shaoyang ordered the girl, but Arina did not listen to him as she held his wrist, "I want to talk with you, this is important."
"You can talk to me after you gather the head for me," he waved his hand at the girl, "This is about Delia, I can resurrect her. I have a forbidden [Revival], an ancient skill that has been long gone."
Tang Shaoyang stopped his steps and turned around, "I will make you regret it if you dare to lie to me!" Arina shook her head, "I am not lying, I am serious. I have gotten the skill after exploring the dungeon in the east."
"Then why do you tell me now? Why don't you use the skill earlier for her?" Tang Shaoyang walked closer to his slave, now he stood in front of the girl with his cold eyes. It was clearly he did not believe her.
"Harsh conditions applied to use the skill. I can't just use it as a normal skill, I need to fulfill the condition," the cleric replied weakly.
"What's the condition?"
"First, it's my level. I will have to sacrifice my 100 levels to use the skill. Second, human sacrifice, the skill needs 100 humans sacrifice, the sacrificial also needs to fulfill a certain condition. The sacrifice has to be at least 50 levels higher than the one I need to revive. Third, I can only use the skill within 24 hours after she died," she told the condition for [Revival].
"Follow me to meet Chief Rick. He should know her level," Tang Shaoyang pulled the girl with her. On the way, he asked his slave, "What do you want?"
"What?" Arina blurted out.
"What do you want in exchange to resurrect Delia?" Even though she was his slave, he would do anything for her if it was within his range of capability.
However, Arina did not reply to him on their way to meet Chief Rick. She did not give him an answer to what she wanted from him. Chief Rick lost not only Delia, but his two wives, and one older daughter.
The old man was kneeling in front of the four dead bodies, "I am sorry to interrupt, but I will need your daughter's body," Tang Shaoyang spoke without context, causing a misunderstanding between the two.
"I have a way to revive your daughter, but only your daughter. I need you to cooperate with me!"

Derrick is ripped from his world and sent to the newest incursion point of an enemy he doesn't even know exists. He is the hail mary or kitchen sink of the universe and it will be up to him to adapt to his new world and become strong enough to survive and to save the universe. ********* Author's Note ********* This is my first published book so feedback would be appreciated. A couple of caveats. First this story is about the details, if you don't enjoy reading and finding the easter eggs or just like to speed read through the chapters you will probably not enjoy it. Second for those that do not like the Harem tag I just want to state that this is going to be a matriarchal society and the women will outnumber the men 5-1. That being the case and because of the culture that I imagine would arise from this I felt it fair to put that tag out there. However, the main character isn't going to be picking up women left and right. This is not a typical harem story. Image was googled so I have no rights to it
