Journey Of A Legend

Chapter 259: Came For Revenge

Outside of Skyfall Mountain, right above in the sky, hundreds of people men were gently floating, while in the very front, a powerful expert could be seen.

If Greg or the others would have seen him, they would have become surprised, because the powerful expert was the man who was present during the Scepter Family's and the Clanwing's commission.

He was from the influential and strong Voodoo Family, and also the only one who survived during from that time.

At that time, he was only a subordinate of Carter, but this time he was a leader, a dominant expert thanks to the leader of the Voodoo Family.

He was assigned with the task to kill all the Clanwing Family members alongside with Greg Hyde. 

He was also told if he kills the latter one, he needed to bring his head back to his Family's leader as a gift.

But naturally, just if he were able to get back the key from him. 

"What a pain in the ass... Make sure to kill him, but first get back what he has stolen. A simple, yet troublesome task.", said the expert quietly in an irritated tone of voice.

As he said that however, one of his subordinates approached him from behind, and is a respected voice he started to talk.

"Master Nark, we have finished creating the array."

The man named Nark hearing this nodded and looked at the mountain before him.

"Perfect. Start using it right away."

"Understood!"

Immediately, all the hundreds of subordinates behind Nark moved and almost instantly they form led a huge circle above the mountain.

"Let's start it.", said Nark, and without a second thought, he put his hands together.

Following him, every man and woman present in the circle put their hands together forming different kinds of symbols with their fingers.

Waiting in silence for a small while, Nark smiled and shouted, "Now!"

Like liting up several fireworks at the same time, the middle of the circle started to shine with colorful light, turning the dark sky colorful in an instant.

Seeing this, Nark smiled even more and extending his arm forward.

Instantly, the mist started to swirl around his arm, and a second later it got fired at the light before him.

*BOOM!*

Like causing a strange chain reaction, the moment the mist hit the light in the middle, several explosions sounded, and soon enough, a terrifying explosion broke out.

The outbreak was so great, that some of the weaker ones in the circle got blown away and died, while some just simply got some injuries from the shockwave.

However, Nark didn't care about them in the slightest. He just smiled and watched as the explosion they just created engulfed the whole mountain in colorful light.

"Yes, that it is! But I it down until nothing remains but corpses and melted debris!"

Naturally, he knew that his task was to not kill his target, but he couldn't resist the urge to try this array if he out.

He was a professional when it came to creating arrays, and this one was one of the many he was proud of.

It was a Magic Array, that needed more than 100 people's power to make it work. But because it had such harsh requirements, that is why its power was terrifying once it started to work.

It fused and transformed all the 100 individuals' power into one, and like a massive bomb, it would melt away anything under seconds.

Under such power, nothing should and was able to escape or remain intact.

Once someone or something was caught in its power, what waited for certain destruction.

"I am extremely curious just hiw powerful full that kid is. Killing Carter, he should be quite skilled."

As Nark thought about this, the smile on his face slowly turned wicked, but the next second, he frowned.

"What?"

Right below him, he was able to watch as Skyfall Mountain got engulfed by the power, but for some reason, it didn't start to melt.

It stood as tall and proud as ever before, without any sign of collapsing or turning into melted debris.

"Huh?"

When Nark saw that the mountain was truly didn't show any sign of collapsing, his eyes widened and his mouth fell wide open.

"That is... One of my strongest Magic Arrays... How?", mumbled Nark with disbelief, not knowing if what he was seeing was true or not.

"No this can't be right.", thought Nark, and squinting his eyes, he started to scan the mountain.

Staying silent for quite a while, suddenly Nark frowned and said, "A Magic Circle? That could explain it then."

What Nark was able to see was that exactly at every 100 meters on Skyfall Mountain, a small but complex-looking Magic Circle could be seen.

They created a huge and massive web system on the mountain, but even though there were so many, Nark didn't notice them until this very moment.

They were hidden quite well that is why.

"Those Magic Circles' role to nullify any attacks nearby. One alone is useless, but with many around it can become a terrifying defending mechanism. But to think there were so many... Just what is this place?"

As Nark thought about this, the Magic Array he just created started to show that it reached its limit, making him frown even deeper.

"There is no way for me to break those circles?", thought Nark, but dismissed the idea the next second.

"They are way too complex. I bet they have some kind of power fused into them that anyone trying to break them, then they would end up exploding."

And just as he said that the explosion he just created with his array weakened, and soon enough it vanished, turning everything back as it was originally.

"E.. Eh?"

When Nark's subordinates opened their eye to see if they saucer not, all of them turned stupified.

All of them knew just what kind of Magic Array they have just used, so seeing that Skyfall Mountain was doing perfectly fine, they turned stunned.

"Master Nark... Did we do something wrong?", asked the closest man on the side with a bit of a worried expression.

However, Nark only shook his head, making the underling to sigh with relief.

"You did everything perfectly. The reason why we failed was because of those."

Glancing where his boss had pointed, the subordinated looked at the mountain with a deep frown.

However, the next second his eyes widened, and asked instantly.

"Aren't those... Magic Circles?"

"They are. And quite complex ones to top it off.", said Nark, showing a troubled expression.

"What should I do now then?", asked himself Nark, but before he could have thought about anything else, a flash appeared before him.

"!?"

Not far away from him, what he was able to see was as 2 figures appeared out of thin air and looked at him in silence.

At first, Nark looked confused, but when he recognized the face of one of the 2 he smiled instantly.

"It seems I don't even need to do anything. He will come right to me!"

Watching as Greg and Russ were looking at him with expressionless faces, Nark smiled and waved his hand.

*Swish!*

Instantly, all men of Nark moved and surrounded the two from all directions, leaving not a single escape route to them.

"Well, well, well. It seems we meet once again.", said Nark, flying closer to the two with his wide grin still etched on his face.

Greg seeing the man frowned and asked, "Who are you?"

"..."

When Nark heard this question, he halted and looked at Greg in silence.

"Say that again?", asked Nark calmly, fearing he just heard Greg's question wrong.

"I asked, who are you guys. Are you deaf?"

"!?"

Nark didn't know how to react to that arrogant statement. Did Greg forget him and what he did in the ruins?

"Oh...", said Nark after a small while later, realizing why Greg didn't remember at him.

"At that time, I was sent to finish off the Clanwing Family's leader, so he must have missed my face."

As he thought about this, Nark smiled creepily and said, "My name is Nark, from the Voodoo Family. I came to take my revenge on my boss's life and take back what rightfully should be ours."

"?"

When Greg listened to this, he frowned in confusion, but soon enough he realized who Nark was.

"You were the one who followed Carter when he tried to get the key back, right?"

"Exactly.", nodded Nark in agreement and said, "So tell me where the key is and maybe I will spare your life."

Hearing this, Greg nodded and said, "Sure."

"I feared you would say th-, wait. What did you say?", asked Nark with surprise when he heard Greg's reply.

"I said sure. Are you sure you are not deaf?", asked Greg with a confused frown as he looked at Nark.

"I...", started to say Nark, but realized he couldn't say anything.

He thought Greg will not give him the key, that's why he was ready to fight, but this answer surprised him quite a bit.

It was extremely unexpected for him, that was for sure.
