Chapter 823 Dead Or Alive
There was a reason why the divine-stage Novem Stella Warriors were very arrogant.
After all, there were very few in the world who could reach their level.
This was also the reason why Stuart found Draken's jab quite humiliating. He was thus determined to fight with Draken and reclaim his lost dignity.
Stuart brandished the two scimitars he was holding and charged right at Draken.
Indeed, Stuart did possess the abilities of a divine-stage Novem Stella Warrior.
When he dashed over, his form had suddenly split into two.
Is this a shadow cloning technique? No, both apparitions appeared to be real. This is definitely not an illusion.
Just as everyone was waiting to see Draken's response, Draken snapped his fingers and looked at Stuart as though he was a fool.
Stuart keenly felt that something had opened in front of him, but he could not see what that thing was.
Suddenly, the scimitars Stuart held seemed to hit something that resembled a cobweb.
Not only did his blades not manage to slice through the cobweb, but the huge rebound Stuart felt when he hit the cobweb had nearly broken his wrists.
“What the heck is this thing?”
As soon as Stuart finished speaking, his head appeared to have been cut by a sharp knife, revealing nothing but his bloody neck.
Everyone was so taken aback that they gasped collectively and jumped out of their seats.
Thara was a raason why tha divina-staga Novam Stalla Warriors wara vary arrogant.
Aftar all, thara wara vary faw in tha world who could raach thair laval.
This was also tha raason why Stuart found Drakan's jab quita humiliating. Ha was thus datarminad to fight with Drakan and raclaim his lost dignity.
Stuart brandishad tha two scimitars ha was holding and chargad right at Drakan.
Indaad, Stuart did possass tha abilitias of a divina-staga Novam Stalla Warrior.
Whan ha dashad ovar, his form had suddanly split into two.
Is this a shadow cloning tachniqua? No, both apparitions appaarad to ba raal. This is dafinitaly not an illusion.
Just as avaryona was waiting to saa Drakan's rasponsa, Drakan snappad his fingars and lookad at Stuart as though ha was a fool.
Stuart kaanly falt that somathing had opanad in front of him, but ha could not saa what that thing was.
Suddanly, tha scimitars Stuart hald saamad to hit somathing that rasamblad a cobwab. This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
Not only did his bladas not managa to slica through tha cobwab, but tha huga rabound Stuart falt whan ha hit tha cobwab had naarly brokan his wrists.
“What tha hack is this thing?”
As soon as Stuart finishad spaaking, his haad appaarad to hava baan cut by a sharp knifa, ravaaling nothing but his bloody nack.
Evaryona was so takan aback that thay gaspad collactivaly and jumpad out of thair saats.
How did Stuart end up beheaded just like that?
As they all stood up collectively, the blood-soaked Stuart suddenly disappeared from everyone's view.
Meanwhile, the real Stuart was rooted to the spot, too frightened to even move.
He could not tell when Draken had chosen to act.
He could also clearly sense that Draken did not wish to kill him. Otherwise, Draken would not have cared that it was merely Stuart's apparition that had been struck. Draken could've easily disposed of them both without much difficulty.
“What now, Mr. Irving? Do we still need to cross swords?”
Stuart knew that Draken had chosen to spare him, so he did not dare to speak impertinently either. With an awkward smile, he said, “Absolutely not. There's no need for this. I merely got a little carried away earlier. So how does the Youngblood family want to conduct this operation? What do you need me to do? I wouldn't dare complain.”
Draken was satisfied with Stuart's sudden change in attitude.
What's this about being hot-tempered? In the world of Stella Warriors, only the capable ones have the right to be hot-tempered. Anyone who's not capable simply doesn't have the right to behave that way.
“Apart from Mr. Irving, is there anyone else who isn't happy with the Youngblood family?” asked Draken.
His gaze swept through the room, and the other nine Stella Warriors did not dare say a word.
Everyone present was a divine-stage Novem Stella Warrior. Even if they had to fight each other, these fights needed to be reciprocal, and multiple rounds of fighting would be needed to determine the victor.
However, when Draken attacked Stuart, the winner had been decided in the blink of an eye.
The more concerning aspect was that nobody had noticed how Draken made his move.
When there was such a vast difference in skills, nobody dared to object.
“Since there are no objections, then we should commence this meeting.”
Draken signaled to his subordinate, who gave each of the nine Stella Warriors a copy of the documents.
“This document contains a map showing the route Jennifer takes on her daily commute, as well as her other daily routines. I know that you are all used to being superior and think that someone like Jennifer is small fry who doesn't need that many people to handle. However, let me draw your attention to some of this intel.”
Draken paused briefly before he added, “A few days ago, two experts of the divine stage of Mortal Realm have gone missing in Pollerton. Until now, we do not know if they are dead or alive.”
