Reborn: Apocalypse Ready, War Goddess by My Side

Chapter 587 What Hatches in the Dark

Boom!

A single explosive roar, and the two of them were both knocked staggering backward.

Kenneth spun with a flourish and steadied himself.

His personal creed was, always, to stay elegant.

He kept that one hand tucked behind his back.

Finis

The teammates behind him clearly saw that the skin of Kenneth’s palm had been split open, a faint seep blood.

The shock in the teammates‘ hearts was beyond words.

Their captain had actually been wounded!

This was something that had never once happened before.

At the very least, among their peers, no one had ever broken through their captain’s defense!

None of them let it show; their faces stayed utterly calm.

Because their captain cared about face… cared about elegance…

Kenneth looked at Alan, his expression placid.

“Now that saber’s more like it. But how many of those have you got in you?”

Alan seemed to have no intention of continuing, either.

He didn’t answer the question.

His voice came out ice–cold. “Show killing intent to my teammates again, and I’ll butcher you

He dropped that one line and turned to leave.

Even Kenneth was a little thrown.

Damn it, this guy really does have a gift for showing off.

He’d always been like this,

The Polaris members didn’t say a word, and didn’t dare make a move.

The days when Alan had ruled over them were still fresh in their minds.

The only ones who could truly cross blades with Alan were Kenneth and that one other freak, and no one

else.

Everyone else was just a supporting act.

Kenneth glanced at his own paim, his expression indifferent.

It seemed the Abysswater Mirror would have to be refined to its peak, after all.

Pressure, sure enough, was the only thing that gave a man the drive to move forward.

Kenneth said coldly, “Move out.”

Fireshe

The Polaris members were a little taken aback inside–their captain had actually just let it drop like that…

And the more Kenneth acted like this, the more dangerous he was!

Steven and the others returned to the villa together.

The road back was unexpectedly peaceful–Jennifer hadn’t, after all, set the Kingstons on them.

Which counted as something of a surprise.

Alan had barely sat down when he suddenly spoke.

“See it? Kenneth isn’t as simple as you imagined. Even for me, a saber like that one only just barely broke through his defense. If I wanted to kill him, I’d have to pay an enormous price.

“And that still isn’t the limit of his strength.”

Everyone was startled, and all turned to look at Steven.

Steven nodded. “Mm. I saw that.”

Steven understood–the captain had made his move just now precisely to let him see Kenneth’s strength clearly.

And that fight just now was absolutely not the whole of Kenneth’s strength.

That guy was a freak, too.

The reason Alan couldn’t suppress him right now came down to the big gap in level.

And this Kenneth was an SSS–rank, on top of it.

Alan said, “Kenneth pays back every grudge. The moment he finds an opening, he’ll move on you for certain–stay on your guard.”

Steven nodded. “Got it. Once I evolve to Divine General, killing him will be as easy as killing a chicken.”

Alan nodded, his gaze complicated, and looked around at them all.

“Everyone who needs to heal, heal. Who needs to rest, rest. Whatever there is to say, we’ll say tomorrow”

As his voice fell, everyone dispersed, heading back to their own rooms.

Steven, for his part, followed Alan to his room.

Finishe

Alan said, “Looks like they really do want you dead. In their eyes, your danger level is probably even abov mine–which is why they’d hold nothing back and actually let that old bastard take the risk of moving on you.”

Steven nodded. “It’s probably because of that night I beat that level 49 Divine General.”

Alan nodded slightly.

“If Ryker hadn’t shown up afterward, it really would’ve been dire. That strike was absolutely that old bastard’s peak blow.”

Steven thought a moment, then said, “His coming back later to take the risk–it should’ve been for this thing.”

As he spoke, Steven drew a black stone egg the size of a human head out of his spatial converter!

Alan was startled and wary.

“What is this? Where did you get it?”

Steven then recounted the whole of what had happened during the chase with that old bastard.

Alan’s expression turned grave.

“Which is to say—the main objective of the beast tide they launched today was probably because of this!

“Killing you was just a bonus on the side!”

Steven nodded. “I’d even guess they may have already smuggled some other things like this stone egg inside.

“This might be only one of them.

“From what I’ve been able to probe so far, the power inside this thing is the same as the power clinging to those people’s Divine Sigils. Only the beast attribute inside is different.”

At this point, Steven paused.

“Oh, right–Captain Greenwood At the Awakened Tournament today, I made a new discovery! A crucial

one!

Alan looked at him.

Steven laid it out slowly. “That prodigy from Oakridge, Griffin, is a God Eater—and a very crucial God Eater at that! There’s an extraordinarily powerful beast force inside his body!

“He can split off a wisp of the beast force inside his body and place it into the body of anyone he comes into physical contact with, and then have it cling to their Divine Sigil.”
