Chapter 142: Kidnapped
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56A few days laters…
News about the rise of a demon in the middle of the city spread around the world. The individual known as Matthew Dragunov had caused 17 reported kills and the destruction of 10 houses and 4 shops and damaged a total of 23 other buildings.
A bounty was officially put on said demon’s head for 5,000,000 Bytes. This made many bounty hunters and Hunters in general excited because of the prize. This bounty was equal to taking down a Giga class monster. Of course, it would also mean it would be just as dangerous. However, that would not stop them.
Aside from that, rumors about the return of an ex-Legendary rank Hunter including their members had also circulated quickly. The executives and the president especially were always questioned by other Hunters and reporters who were looking for a scoop.
Cecilia returned home shortly after the event, traumatized after what she experi

“Yo Metil, pass me the sauce will ya?” Jovanic held out his hand ready to accept a bottle of red liquid. Metil on the other end, handed the bottle to Jovanic over Hinata who was just quietly eating her bowl of rice with beef slices.“I want some too.” Jade held his plate out across the table for Jovanic to pour some sauce in it.“Oh, here!” Jovanic poured the sauce onto the plate which almost covered the entirety of the steak on it.“Wait, wait! Too much!” Jade pulled his plate away before Jovanic could pour anymore. Jovanic only laughed hysterically.“Jovanic Bonnivierre, don’t be wasteful or else you’ll do laundry for the entire month.” Marlin, who was still in an apron with a spatula in her hand, scolded Jovanic who was acting like a child.“No, wait! Fine, I’m sorry.” Jovanic apologised

Matthew and Susan finished their meals after everyone else had already left. They picked up the plates and put them in the sink to be washed. Susan and Matthew stood side by side at the sink, scrubbing and rinsing the dishes together.Matthew was quicker and more efficient in doing his chore than Susan. “You know, we used to always do chores back in our house.” Susan started speaking.“Excuse me, our house? When the hell did you live with me?” Matthew asked.Susan chuckled. “Haha, we were in an.. Academy, I guess. You, me, Megat and a bunch more other kids. Our batches were divided into houses and we were in the same house.” Susan paused to put a plate on the rack. “As any school goes, they tend to make students do chores here and there. You would always volunteer and Megat and I would get dragged with you.”“Oh, uhh sorry about that.”

Metil was chatting with Azazel out in the open outside of the house just by the sidewalk. Matthew closed the front door behind him and walked over to them. Both of them noticed Matthew approaching and stopped their conversation.“Sorry, did I interrupt something?” Matthew apologised seeing that they turned their attention to him.“No, it’s fine. We were just talking about some random things.” Azazel said.“I was waiting for you actually, boss was just keeping me company.” Metil said.“Well, I suppose I should take my leave now. You two have fun.” Azazel reached up to pat Metil’s shoulder and left Matthew and Metil alone.“You too boss.” Metil said before Azazel went inside the house. Then he turned back to Matthew.Matthew had to tilt his head back a bit to look at Metil’s face. Mat

Rose woke up in a room. It was already bright outside as the white sunlight shone through the open window. She felt a slight pain in her head, probably from being hit earlier. She remembered everything.Judging from the time of day, at least an entire day had passed. This room was unfamiliar. The walls were made from wood while the furniture was very simple. The window showed the scenery outside. The area was surrounded by trees and there was also a faint sound of water flowing, a river perhaps.Rose did not know where she was but she knew she must get out of there. She got out of bed and checked herself. It seemed that she was unharmed. She reached for the door and opened it.To her surprise, there was someone already standing behind the door. The man also seemed surprised as well.“Oh, so you’re up-”“[Wind Blast]!”“Uwaa

“You will fight with him.” Loki said while pointing his index finger at Rose.Rose was stunned. It would take a long time to know what Loki meant, however, Rose was confused by the way he said it.“What do you mean?”“You will support him in the front lines, possibly directly against the Scarlett King if needed.”“But how?! Even so, I don’t want to do that. We’ll both be killed!” Rose shouted at him.Loki maintained his calm demeanour and explained to Rose. “Everything that happened has a meaning. A reason. Fate had decided for the two of you to come to this world. Coincidentally, the Scaletts also arose during this time. It is no coincidence, it is fate.”Rose was not one to believe in such things as fate. It was ridiculous to believe that fate had anything to do with it.
BLAIR Chapter 148: Friends Come Together
In Cecilia’s mansion, Yuki was leaning against a wall beside a door that led to Cecilia’s room. Her parents were inside, trying to cheer Cecilia up who was currently traumatised.Voices of her parents constantly trying to persuade their daughter could be heard. Yuki’s heart felt heavy hearing them.The door opened and the parents came out of the room looking worried.“How is she?” Yuki asked the parents.“She’s fine, thankfully. I believe she just needs more time to calm down more. It was her friend that caused her fear after all.” Gustav gave his explanation.Yuki sighed in relief. “I can understand that. Even from way out here, I was also shaking. Cecilia who was right there with him must’ve been petrified. The amount of power displayed could reach even the ends of the world.”Gustav and Emil

(Sorry for not updating for a while. Been busy with exams.)Chaos erupted that night as flames covered the building. People had their phones out to record this event, incapable of helping. Brave men in fire proof suits were rushing to get the fire under control.A little boy was crying while shaking two bodies lying lifeless on the burning floor. The bodies were battered, bruised and covered in blood. Despite the fire surrounding him getting closer, the boy did not care.Two firemen entered the house. They saw the boy and the two bodies beside him. They rushed over to rescue the boy however the ceiling collapsed before they could.…..Matthew opened his eyes. His body was covered in sweat and he was breathing heavily.He covered his eyes and slowly regulated his breathing to calm down.…..“Hey, ea

A past that no one except for Matthew knows.Five years ago.The delicious aroma from the stew that was being boiled on top of a stove filled the house. A woman with black hair and golden eyes stirred the contents of the pots while humming a simple tune. Her name was Rin.“Hmm~ Hm~ Hmm~”A pair of feet stepped into the kitchen. Rin noticed the presence and turned around.“What is it Matt?” She asked the boy with blonde hair and bright blue eyes.“What’s for dinner tonight?”“Oh, just some stew. Since you’re here, why don’t you go set up the table? And call your dad to come down as well.”“Roger that!” Matthew replied and went to the cabinet and retrieved some bowls.Rin smiled and returned to her cooking. She scooped out

At the edge of the pit, it was them. A total of nine of the Scarlett family members.From the right, a woman with long red hair and black and white dress was casting a healing spell on Bilgrae. A male elf in full black armour with a star shaped bang of three red points and two white points and his black hair was split in the middle. A demon with dark violet hair and a pair of horns at the side of her head and wore a jet black skin tight suit which exposed certain parts, Crymillia. In the middle, it was a man with short bright red hair wearing a black and gold robe. Then, a man with black hair in a red and black suit. Another demon with about the same features as Crymillia except that his hair was short and he wore a black cloak over his suit. Then there was a man with spiky red hair in a red robe with a high collar, Crone, the one that Matthew and his friends fought at the Great Sandcastle. Finally, there was the black feathered avian human, Skystorm.Seeing Skystorm in good health, M

Confronting Bilgrae now was what he expected to see from a Dragon Emperor.Matthew was now at maximum output of his astra and all of it was condensed in his body. Bright red scales covered his entire body and he grew slightly in size. His muscles became more toned and also increased in size. A pair of horns of a darker tone of red grew out of his forehead that curved to the back of his head. Both of his eyes were glowing golden as his hair was.“Let’s finish this!” Matthew did not delay any further. He couldn’t maintain this form for long so he must finish the fight quickly.Matthew dashed toward Bilgrae who was ready for Matthew. Their fists clashed again and this time, not only was Bilgrae pushed back, he felt pain in his knuckles. Matthew was much stronger than before and far faster too. Utilising his speed, Matthew went for another punch to Bilgrae’s gut.“Oof!” Bilgrae got the air knocked out of him with the first hit.Matthew followed up with a barrage of punches. Bilgrae truly
BLAIR Chapter 316: Test of Strength
After being blown away by Skystorm’s wind, Matthew regained his footing and was met with the big lizardman, Bilgrae Scarlett. Bilgrae had a smirk on his face. Matthew stood up and faced Bilgrae, but his eyes were not on him. Matthew’s eyes fell on Falynx in the far distance.“Are you still concerned about that monster?” Bilgrae asked with his deep voice.Matthew looked at Bilgrae now. “It’s hard to know which one is the monster here.”“Heh, you’re right. All of us are monsters deep inside. It just takes one misstep to turn a person into one. You’ve been there too.”“No I haven’t.”“Maybe not to you. But the whole world saw you as one. Now that monster suddenly turned into an emperor and they suddenly glorified you, while some still hate you of course.”“Hmph.” Matthew huffed.“You’re angry with me, I understand. I purposely did not kill that beast. Out of compassion.”“Don’t lie. You Scarletts don’t know what that means.”Bilgrae wasn’t smiling anymore. “You don’t know how merciful fa
BLAIR Chapter 315: Vampiric Origin
Akame and Skystorm were separated from Matthew and Bilgrae. Akame stood up after being blown away by the powerful gust of wind created by Skystorm. Their eyes met. Both of their irises were bright red and gazed deeply.“I will be your foe, Red Cardinal.” Skystorm said.“What relic will you take? What will you use it for?” Akame asked.“Straight to the questions huh… That’s not any of your business. Why would you care what we take anyway if you’ll die?”“To evaluate whether it’s worth fighting for or not.”“Hmm, a smart choice. If you don't want to fight, then I shant confront you. Sadly, it seems that Lord Dragunov disagrees with you. If he is in the way, then we must remove him. I don’t think that leaves you an option now.”Backing out from this would mean that Matthew will be fighting two people. If they weren’t among the Scarlett Army’s strongest, it probably wouldn’t be hard for him to deal with alone. Both of their foes were really strong and Akame had no expectation of defeating
BLAIR Chapter 314: The Sun God's Temple
After their encounter with Falynx, they reached an agreement to conduct an investigation as they intended. Falynx had flown back to the surface on its own. Matthew and Akame headed to the temple and arrived at the front door.For some reason, even though they were underground, it was as clear as day down here. It was not dark and not too bright either, like a cloudy day.There were stairs that led to the door and the walls in the area were already partially destroyed. Some of the stairs were also gone. The giant door was made of stone and seemed to be intact with little cracks around the hinges.Matthew pushed one of the doors open. It was surprisingly heavy so Matthew had to lean into it to move it. Akame went inside first and inspected the place. There was a stage and a podium carved out of stone at the end of the great hall. A mural was carved out of the wall behind the stage depicting a supposed god holding the sun in his hands.Matthew left the door open and joined Akame to look
BLAIR Chapter 313: The Giant Winged Snake
In the middle of the desert, there were two figures running across the sands. Clouds of sand were left behind in their quick steps. The cloak provided by the minister was really working. No sand was sticking onto them.“We’re getting close.” Matthew informed Akame.Almost two hours have passed since they left the city. Many monsters came their way but they were easily dealt with. It caused a little delay but not enough to affect their momentum. Falynx’s presence was still about 10 kilometres away.“Be ready for battle.” Akame said.“Remember though, don’t kill it.” Matthew reminded her.A few minutes later, a gigantic figure could be seen flying in the sky. The creature had the body of a snake, the head of a crocodile and six pairs of batwings. Its yellow eyes with black vertical slits looked down at the incoming people below.Falynx bowed its head and began descending. Matthew and Akame saw this as an engagement in battle. Matthew called out the Dragoknight to his arms and increased
BLAIR Chapter 312: Mission Briefing
The sun was already high up in the sky in the Capital City of Kubalt. The weather was hot and dry as usual in San Coro. The street around this particular area was not that busy since it was right in front of the Palace of Al-Jauhara. One would occasionally see knights patrolling the area. Akame was waiting under the intense heat of the sun. She had covered herself in a large black cloth to protect herself from the heat. The guards out here only wore light armour compared to the ones inside, probably because their armour would be too hot to wear outside. Not too long after, she finally saw the one she was waiting for. Matthew was jogging toward her. He wore his long sleeved red hooded jacket and an orange shirt under it and a pair of black pants. He also had his usual travelling backpack with him. “Phew, sorry, did you wait long?” “Not too long. Did you not use a teleportation scroll?” Akame asked. “I did, but the closest one was to Yanbue City. Neither Platinum nor Rose were famil
BLAIR Chapter 311: No Rest
“What brings you here, Akame?” Matthew asked.Just a few moments ago, Akame had arrived in front of Platinum’s cave. Someone like who was a Coloured Hunter, passing through the Blackwood Forest and up the cold mountain was not a problem. Or not.Akame was hugging herself to keep warm but it was not helping at all. “Achoo! C-can we talk somewhere warmer?”“Oh, come on in.” Matthew invited her inside.Akame went in and they both made their way to the living room. Matthew didn't think that it was alright to bring her to the others directly. The living room had a fire to keep them warm, so here was enough.“Ah~” Akame warmed herself up by the fire and put her hands out.“So, what are you doing here without equipment to survive on a mountain? Certainly you didn’t come to interview us?” Matthew asked.“Queen Cleopatra sent me. We will investigate the ruin she mentioned together.” Akame said with the same emotionless voice as usual.“Cleopatra? Well, I was gonna head there in a few days anyw
BLAIR Chapter 310: Future Family
Matthew and Rose arrived at the foot of the mountain just by the Blackwood Forest where they dropped off of the carriage while Guinevere headed back to her palace. It was already very late in the afternoon when they got to the forest. Matthew carried Rose's luggage in hands while he also wore his backpack."I can carry my own stuff." Rose said."No, I will carry them for you. Anyway, are you sure you'll be fine?""My magic resistance is quite high. I also know how to disperse mana if it does accumulate inside me. How long exactly is it going to take to get up there again?" Rose looked up at the ledge near the mountain peak where Platinum's abode was."Well, usually only a few hours if you're moving at my usual speed. If we're walking though, a few days at least." Matthew said."But we're not walking, right?" Rose asked."Nope." As Matthew replied, a shadow flew past over them.A jade green dragon circled them as she descended to the ground nearby. Upon landing, the dragon folded its w
