SSS SKILL: DUPLICATE

Chapter 234 Return of Death God



234  Return of Death God

Within a hall, Viel was standing in the center while there were floating projection screens. The screens were showing the faces of the remaining branch leaders of Poison Guild.

There were also temporary leaders like Jaxen in the room.

"You all are the chosen representatives of the guild, so we will talk together and come up with an agreement. As we talk, we will temporarily lead the Poison Guild, and we already gave the rules and guidelines that each member must follow. We will not force the guild to disband, but it must follow our guidelines. We will not stop if ever a member wishes to leave the guild," said Viel, causing an ugly look on the faces of the members.

"That is not fair!"

A smile appeared on Viel as he gave the members a sharp gaze. "We all know what filth the Poison Guild has done. Without Poison Lord, we could squash your guild to the ground, but we are giving you all a chance. You can talk with yourselves. Let us meet again later."

The members looked at each other. They remained silent as Viel left the room. Nôv(el)B\\jnn

"We can't have a meeting here," said Jaxen.

Everyone understood what he meant and agreed with him.

"Call us when it's ready."

Jaxen nodded his head, then he and one other man also left the room. A guild member drove an armored pickup while Jaxen and the man were sitting in the back seat.

"Are we going to comply with the government?"

"You think we can still take back the command of our guild?" said Jaxen.

"What?! Is Viel not going to follow his promise?!"

Jaxen chuckled. "Our men had been carefree under our boss, Poison Lord. What do you think will happen if they work under a strict rule?"

"They will leave the guild?"

"Yes, and the guild will not be able to function well. It will just be a matter of time before it disbands, but under the law, the properties that belong to the guild will be divided among the members. Isn't the guild always having a small cut on the profit of each member in the restricted zone or broken world? The bigger the contribution, the more you will receive. Will the government let the huge properties be given to us? They will not let the guild disband even if it becomes a shell. It's a loophole in the law that they can take advantage of."

"But can't we get it even if we leave?"

"If you violated the guidelines of a guild, then they have the right not to give you anything. There is a standard guideline in the law, but who among us strictly followed them?"

The man understood what Jaxen was saying. "Damn! They are thieves! Are we just going to let them?!"

"What choice do we have? Are we going to fight back?"

"Of course! We are going to show them what vipers can do!"

"Viel is not an idiot as well as Augusto. I'm sure our movements are being monitored. The moments we have signs of causing trouble, then we will be annihilated. They are probably holding filths or they can even make filths about us, so they will have a legitimate reason to get us arrested. They can turn one of us into a witness in exchange for freedom and wealth.

Viel is right. They could squash us like an ant, but they are not doing it because it will cause chaos. If the members take revenge, then it will cause chaos around the country. But the chaos will only cause trouble, and not enough to shake the country. Even the top guilds will pounce on us like hungry predators. They will gladly hunt us down in exchange for benefits."

"Can we ask for the help of Death Guild?"

"Without Poison Lord, we are nothing to them. Our guild even became second-rate."

"How about the Holtien family?"

"We will just be sacrificial pawns of Mason in his games."

"Can we direct the anger of the Death Guild to the government?"

"Do you think they are stupid?! They can definitely find your trick, then we'll be in deeper sh*t!"

"Damn! Can't we do something?!"

"We'll stay in the guild for a while and wait for an opportunity. Who knows? The government could have involved itself in the death of Poison Lord. It will be fun if the Death Guild finds out about it."

"What if there is no connection to the government?"

"Then we have to leave the guild and the country. With their record about us, they will probably force us to work hard later. We might die in a broken world or a restricted zone. We all are not lacking money anyway, which they should have also considered. We can join a guild in another country and start over. Once we are abroad, we could make plans on how to take revenge. Viel will experience how a viper bides its time and strikes where it hurts."

"Aren't we going to take revenge on the people that did this to our guild?"

"Death Guild will do that for us. Whoever is the true suspect, they will find them, and they will have to pay a very painful price."

Meanwhile, within a memorial park, there were grasses being blown as the wind was flowing. Edgar was wearing a coat while standing in front of Sofie's tomb. Gan was also with him.

"I found the real scum that did it to you. I let him experience hell in the world of a living. I promised to bring Toto's head, but I brought the real perpetrator instead," said Edgar as he raised his right hand. There was ash on his hand. He let the ash fall and be blown away by the wind. "Your mother and father are doing fine in China. I already sent help to them, and your dreams are being carried out. Sofie, I hope these will make you rest in peace."

"Do you think Aunt and Uncle will come back?" asked Gan as they walked to the parking lot.

"If they saw the news about Toto, they would probably visit Sofie's grave. Living in the country is painful for them. If they knew about my power of illusion, then they might wish to see Sofie. Their healing wound will just open again. I secretly gave them protection and financial support. I heard that they are planning to adopt a child. That should be able to help them recover more quickly."

A few days later, within an underground hall, a man was sitting on a black throne. There were two columns of pillars carved with murals. The pillars had torches with blue flames.

The man had curly black hair that reached his shoulders. He had a beard on his chin, and his eyes looked very sharp. His name was Vognar, also known as Death God.

Vognar's eyes were turning sharper as he listened to Riva, who was reporting in the hall.

"The clues are directed to the knight guild. The boy is an important link, but he is missing according to PHA. Even the knight guild said he hasn't come back yet."

Death energy started flowing around Vognar's throne. "The world seems to be waiting for our response, then I will show them how I will respond."

A huge undead bird was flying over Mahajanga City. It turned into a tornado of death energy, then Vognar appeared.

A huge circle was formed in the air.

ROOOAR! A forty-meter-long western black dragon came out of the circle. Vognar was standing on its head as it flew to outer space.

Satellites of government agencies around the world were monitoring Death God's movement. His return was deliberately leaked to them by Riva.

"Where is he going?! Why is he moving toward the west?! Tell team Alpha to halt the operation!"

"Sir, the command is already given, but the team leader wishes to communicate."

"Approve."

"Sir! It is a good opportunity to eliminate the scum! If they can eliminate an heir like Poison Lord, so can we! We might not have another opportunity later!"

"Idiot! Death God has just returned, and he is in outer space flying west!"
