104 Trevon vs Debt Collector Round Two

Trevon was carried into the gate.

"AAAAAA!!!" Trevon still shouted. He looked toward the gate which getting closer and closer. As a Top Rank 3 warrior, Grand Elder Pieter easily jumped from one boat into another while carrying Trevon. Trevon felt the shakes and made him scream.

[We will crash!] He thought when he saw the gate and the wall. However, Grand Elder Pieter just increased his running speed. Trevon closed his eyes when he saw the wall was getting nearer and nearer.

"Wooosh!" Trevon felt his body was moving at a super speed toward the sky. A Rank 3 warrior could jump very high, he saw he was eighty meters above the ground.

[Uh…] Trevon felt something ticklish on his bottom. However, that wasn't long. Grand Elder Pieter tapped his left foot on the empty air using his spiritual energy. He launched himself and Trevon toward the top of the wall.

"Tap…" A simple sound and the Grand Elder arrived at the top of the wall. Grand Elder Pieter showed his control of spiritual energy. His landing was very slow and graceful while his launch was very fast.

[Huff…] Trevon thought in his heart. He had held his breathing before.

"You should not scream like that. Imagine if a girl saw you like that! Hahaha." Grand Elder Pieter laughed.

[Wait!] Trevon realized the two beautiful girls were here. He looked around hoping that the twins didn't see him.

However, his wish was destroyed. The twins were looking at him with a shocked expression.

"…" Trevon wanted to cry.

"You will walk next to me. We will stay at the back." Grand Elder Pieter said. "My main goal is to back our team if we met many Rank 3 monsters."

"Yes, Grand Elder." Trevon walked with Grand Elder Pieter behind the group. Although he was in a safe position, Trevon also wore some lightweight armors like heartguard, armguard, and footguard.

Lance and Bamboo Old Man led several rescue cultivators into the castle. Ramos, Roya, and Homa were the guide to explore the castle.

The group moved carefully because of those fallen bodies. Over ten thousand people lived in the castle. If all became fallen bodies, even a Rank 3 warrior might not have enough stamina to survive alone. Their aura couldn't block that many monsters.

Trevon saw some weak rogue cultivators also tried to enter the castle. They dared to face the risk for money.

They went inside the room, Trevon could smell the metallic smell of blood.

[Entering here is a big mistake.] He thought.

"Gwahahaha!" The Rabbink laughed. "You should improve your decision-making then."

Trevon grumbled in his heart. In his panic, he followed the Grand Elder inside. If he was a bit more clearheaded, he could just run away alone into the pavilion.

[Is this the destiny of the main character? Entering the danger for wealth? At least, I can't meet a crocodile inside.] While Trevon enjoyed reading those cool and brave hero stories. He didn't desire to actually experience the danger. Nevertheless, the young master was already there walking with a group of powerful warriors.

He followed his Grand Elder with other powerful ancient warriors into the castle. Sometimes they shouted using spiritual sense. The castle had a huge ceiling of five meters. While it was a dwarf castle, it was more than enough to human. Some hall even had a ceiling as high as twenty meters.

Inside Trevon could see the signs of Dwarf heritage from the engravings on the wall. The Ironlaw family valued the dwarf craftmanship and kept them decorated the castle. Nevertheless, they also added red and gold engravings into the castle interior. Those engravings represented Heavenly Phoenix's noble culture. At some part, Trevon could see antique flower vases and gold-colored spirit wood furniture.

However, the group could see the sign of a battle on the furniture. While they didn't find any victim corpse, they could see the scratch and sharp weapon marks.

[Perhaps they had turned into a fallen body.] Trevon thought.

"Nobody here." One of the elders said.

"We should be more careful." Bamboo Old Man said.

They went from one room into another. Ramos led the way. Next to him were Lance and Bamboo Old Man.

"For Ironlaw!!!" They heard somebody shouted. However, the voice wasn't loud, which indicated that it happened somewhere far.

"Over there!" Bamboo Old Man shouted.

"That must be one of our warriors." Ramos shouted.

The group quickly went into the source of the voice. Unlike the common Heavenly Phoenix buildings, it was confusing to move from one tower into another in Ironlaw Castle.

In other buildings, one could get outside into the garden before entering one of the pagodas. In this castle, one needed to know the hallways that connected those castle towers.

"That voice comes from the back castle!" Ramos shouted.

Trevon felt a bit afraid. [Should I wait here?]

"At this rate, you should join the group. You might get your lucky chance." Master Rabbink said.

[Treasure?] Trevon felt conflicted. However, he couldn't come into a decision and automatically followed the old men. Homa and Roya also followed the group. The twins still looked worried. Trevon didn't know who they wanted to see.

Five minutes later, they arrived at a huge hall. Several rogue cultivators were fighting with some fallen bodies.

"How could we pass here?" Old Bamboo stopped the group from entering deeper.

"There is another hallway on the second floor." Ramos said. The group left those rogue cultivators to their fate. It was the risk for them to enter.

"Ok. Let's got here."

Ramos led the group toward the second-floor hallway. They walked in a spiraling stair before entering a long hallway. Several fallen bodies appeared to block the group. However, the group immobilized them using Rank 3 warrior's aura. The elderly then used long-range attacks to blast the fallen bodies from the hallway through the windows.

[Hehehe.] Trevon laughed. He knew it was a good decision to walk with these powerful Rank 3 warriors.

They walked toward a large tower in the north of the castle.

"Brother Ironlaw!!! Are you there?" Bamboo Old Man shouted using his spiritual sense. He wouldn't want to risk his life to save unknown people.

"I am here, Bamboo Old Man!" A man shouted from the back. "Be careful! Some of our elders had turned into the monsters! They could use an aura to counter our aura."

"You wait here, Trevon." Pieter went with the group. They tried to enter the battlefield. Those Rank 3 warriors used aura to pressure the fallen bodies. Weak fallen bodies wouldn't be able to move. However, powerful Rank 3 opponent could counter with their own aura pressure.

Trevon, Roya, and Homa were waiting outside while the rest went inside. Ramos actually couldn't help, but the guard pleaded to join.

"They were fighting inside." Master Rabbink said. Trevon enjoyed this peacetime during the chaos. While Trevon couldn't get too close, but he could see behind the door was a large hall.

On the first floor of the hall, some Ironlaw warriors still defended themselves from the attack of the fallen bodies. Some warriors also protecting a half-opened hallway. It was one of Ironlaw family's escape routes.

Roya and Homa were stressed while using their spiritual senses to watch the fights. They walked nonstop outside the hallway. However, they didn't dare to enter the hall.

Suddenly they heard someone shouted from behind the door. "The attacker runs!"

"Over there!' Roya shouted. She saw a person with an iron mask ran in other hallways across their hallway. However, the Debt Collector was one floor higher.

"Catch him!" Lance shouted from inside. Their family aim was this man. A person who managed to create chaos in Hillbridge and Goldcave must have a special treasure. That was the aim for McArthur family.

Some Rank 3 warriors went to chase. However, Trevon and the girls could see some fallen bodies delayed those Rank 3 warriors. Another battle occurred in the hallway across them. The fallen bodies seemed more powerful and could delay them.

"Go get the Debt Collector! Try to get the liquid this time!" Master Rabbink told Trevon.

[What?]

"Don't you want to use some fallen bodies? Gwahahaha. If you want to snatch the debt collector's cheat, this is the chance." Master Rabbink laughed.

[Why don't you tell me before in Cave Melody? Perhaps during the fight with the debt collector?]

"Because this one is the controller with the original liquid. Do you dare?" Master Rabbink asked while sneering.

[This one?] Trevon thought.

"Roya! Homa! Chase that person! He killed our family." Ramos shouted from inside the hall.

"He is very weak! Chase!" Another Ironlaw person from the hallway shouted. Trevon could see the Debt Collector left some Rank 3 fallen bodies to delay those Rank 3 warriors to chase him.

"What?" The girls looked into the runaway man in black clothes. They didn't think a lot and started to chase. Perhaps those two girls were no longer thinking.

[Should I follow them?] Trevon saw Homa and Roya ran toward the other side of the hallway.

"Yeah! That Debt Collector is not even a Middle Rank 1 warrior." Master Rabbink commented.

Trevon squeezed his hand. [Ah! Sh*t! I have to get the lucky chance.] He ran after the girls.

Treasure Snatcher Trevon chased the girls and the debt collector. He felt tempted by Master Rabbink's words.

The treasure which could create the fallen bodies must be powerful. While Trevon didn't plan to use it on a human, he could use it to control some demon beasts.

On the other hand, the Rabbink even said the debt collector was not even a Middle Rank 1 warrior. If a Peak Rank 1 warrior like him didn't dare to chase him, that would throw the golden opportunity.

[I have to become powerful.] Trevon remembered he was being forced to fight a life and death battle with the bandits. The danger that his bodyguards and Nana had to face because of their weak strength. He didn't like that feeling when his life was outside his control. [I have to.] His eyes turned resolute.

Trevon arrived at a hall and saw the only other door in the hall. He ran toward the other door.

[This is the fastest way to increase my power.] Trevon reassured himself. He knew he would need hundreds of years to become a Rank 3 warrior with table pointing. But, with a cheat treasure owned by a child of God, he would increase his power very quickly.

He almost lost the trail, but he was stronger than Homa and Roya. This was the second time Trevon used his real power. The other time was when he fought the bandit leaders. Soon he could see the girl chased the debt collector into the top. After they ran a few stairs above, they arrived at a long hallway to move between towers.

"Why he didn't use his bottles?" Trevon wondered. He took a blazing talisman and followed.

"Wheeeeeee!" Trevon could hear the debt collector whistled. Then from the black robe covered body, a blue light glow appeared.

"Flap... Flap... Flap..." Trevon could hear some flapping sound from outside the hall. His hearing was better than common people. He looked toward the outside.

[…] He wanted to cry.

"Sh*t!" Trevon looked into Master Rabbink. [Are you cheating, Rabbink?]

"Gwahahaha. This Rabbink has said that you will fight a crocodile-type fallen body." Master Rabbink laughed.

Trevon could see from the windows of the hallway, a five-meter-tall crocodile was flying about fifty meters away. It flapped its feather wings and flew next to the hallway.

[Name: Croco]

[Age: 8 Years]

[Sex: Male]

[Species: Fallen Body]

[Potential: 18/18]

[Determination: 0]

[Cultivation Speed: 0]

[Loyalty: 99]

[Decision Making: 0]

[Talent: Flying, Swimming]

[Ability: Tail Whip, Scratch, Bite, Charge]

[Affiliation: -]

The fallen body was a huge crocodile with a dark skin. Its scales were as black as the castle. It had two pairs of feather wings on its back that allowed the crocodile to float. Each its wings were ten-meter-long while its long-spiked tail made a swimming movement to control its movement.

"This is a fallen body made from Feather Winged Black Crocodile. It came from the area deep in the Gigantes." Master Rabbink told Trevon. "It is still a baby. Look, he is so cute."

Trevon wanted to vomit blood hearing the Rabbink said it was cute.

"Too bad... As a fallen body, it is not edible." The Rabbink showed a regret face. It sighed.

[Can you think anything other than food?] Trevon wanted to choke the Rabbink.

"Prang... Brak..." The crocodile punched the windows using its claw. Roya and Homa rolled forward to avoid the crocodile.

[Sh*t!] Trevon didn't know what he should do. The claw was two meters long. It swiped everywhere in the hall, blocking Trevon from chasing the Debt Collector.

[What should I do?]

"Do not be afraid of its size! It is very weak. Try to use your talisman!"

[Yes.] Trevon took his blazing Talisman. He lighted it and threw to the beast.

"Boom!" The blast destroyed a big part of the beast's arm.

"Hahaha. This works!" Trevon smiled.

However, Trevon's laugh didn't last for long. The beast regenerated its arm.

"Wooosh!" The beast arm almost swiped Trevon out.

"Use your Weakness Scan!"

Trevon always forgot to use this skill. He used Weakness Scan. Some red glowing appeared on the beast's body. The young master activated a blazing talisman again then he threw it using his middle and index finger into the beast's arm.

"Boom!" This time the beast lost its balance. Without its arm, it couldn't stick into the hallway. It fell into the bottom.

Trevon continued his chase. The girls and the debt collector already gone.

He ran into a hall before he found a spiraling stairway.

[Where did they go?] Trevon thought. Had had an option to go down or to go up.

"Use your smell!" Master Rabbink helped Trevon as a guide.

"You are right." Trevon sniffed around. [This is their perfume!] Trevon had remembered their rose perfume after their painting session together in the Melody Cave.

[This way.] Trevon went upstairs. He kept climbing the stairway before it was stopped at a floor. The young master went outside the stairway and arrived at a large hall with only a door.

Trevon didn't need to think. He ran passed through the door following the thin rose perfume of the twins.

[Ah! Here they are!] Trevon finally caught the sight of the twins.

They were fighting with the debt collector in a hall using their elastic swords. The Debt collector used the mysterious vial to prevent the girl from getting closer, but it was a stalemate for both sides. Homa and Roya couldn't get close, but the Debt Collector couldn't escape.

"Hmph… Do you think you can catch me?" The Debt Collector spoke still using a hoarse fake voice. A blue glow appeared on the Debt Collector's hands.

"Bang!!! Bang!!! Bang!!!"

[What is that?] Trevon looked.

[GAH! It didn't give up?] He saw the huge crocodile slammed into the windows.

"Of course, a fallen body only obeyed their master's order." Master Rabbink explained.

"Brak!!!" The crocodile managed to make a hole into the room. The crocodile was too large, but it could put its tail from it.

[Shit? A crocodile could do that?] Trevon saw a tail filled with sharp scales entered the room.

"That is the control of the controller. A fallen body was a puppet for them." Master Rabbink explained.

"Wosh!!!" Trevon could feel the huge swiping momentum.

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!" Roya shouted. She didn't manage to dodge the swipe.

"Sister!" Homa screamed.

The debt collector used this chance and ran from the twins' blockade into another hallway.

Trevon didn't wait to be whipped like Roya. He jumped backward and used his Weakness Scan into the crocodile. Some red glowing started to appear on its tail.

[Blazing Talisman!] This time Trevon activated several talismans. He threw them into the red glows.

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Those talismans created a huge sound in the building. Trevon covered himself. He saw soft debris filled the air. While most materials were made from metal, some stone decorations covered the building's interior. Those stones turned into sharp debris.

After the smoke disappeared, he saw a huge hole. The crocodile ran away again.

"Sister! Sister!" Homa cried for his sister. Roya the eldest was unconscious.

"Take this!" Trevon threw a bottle of physical recovery pills. "This is physical recovery pill."

Trevon couldn't wait for Roya. He chased the debt collector into the hallway.

[Where he is? This building is like a maze.] Trevon complained. [Eh? What is this smell? Trevon could still smell some rose smells. He wears a similar perfume with the twins?]

The smell was very thin, but Trevon believed he had smelled it before. He chased into that direction.

[Master Rabbink, will Roya turn into a fallen body?]

"That girl? Hm... She is lucky. The tail didn't scratch her. She only knocked because of the impact with the metal wall."

"Oh!" Trevon felt a bit relieved, it would be a pity if the twins turned into a solo.

Trevon followed the debt collector into the higher floor. He ran on a spiraling staircase again.

[Did he know the map?] Trevon himself already felt lost in the building. He could only follow the familiar smells.

He passed a hallway and moved into a higher floor. After five minutes, Trevon could see the back of the debt collector exiting a hall. [He ran into that hallway.]

Trevon chased. He opened the door.

[Shit!] Trevon appeared outside the castle. Above him was the luminary cave. He felt a huge wind splashed toward his face.

"Wosh…"

Trevon heard some air movement before he actually felt a huge current blew his face. He raised his hand to block the air from blinding his eyes. The young master slowly opened his eyes. A huge crocodile floated before him while the Debt Collector was waiting under the crocodile.

"We meet again, Young Master Trevon. I think this time should be the time for me to kill you. Heoheoheo." The same hoarse fake voice was heard from the mask.

"You are the one who is lucky to avoid me!" Trevon prepared his sword in his right hand while taking some talisman with his left hand.

"Bzt…" Trevon activated the talisman while clamped it with his left hand's middle and index fingers.

"Croco!" The Debt Collector raised a hand. The hand glowed with blue light.

Trevon knew the glowing hand was a command for the fallen bodies. The Crocodile flapped its wing and floated higher.

Trevon could feel the air current blew him. He could only steel himself from being flown by the gust.

[This would be difficult to use the talisman with this gust.] Trevon thought. He looked around. They were on an open hallway. It was connecting two high towers in the castle.

[Falling would be dangerous.] He saw those sharp and pointed towers would welcome him if he fell below.

"Attack!" The Debt Collector flicked the blue glowing hand toward Trevon.

The Crocodile floated higher and liked a meteor, it dashed into Trevon direction.

"Gaaaaaah!" Trevon rolled backward. He returned into the tower where he had appeared.

"Krak!! Krak!!" He saw the crocodile snout entered the hall. It tried to find something to bite.

[Almost!] Trevon felt his hand and soles felt cold. The snout just ten centimeters away from his feet. Croco, the crocodile was too big for the door.

[Weakness Scan!] He used his skill. "Do you think you can get a piece of me?" Trevon took some blazing talismans and activated them. Simultaneously, he was waiting for the red glows to increase.

"Taste this! Hahahaha." Trevon flicked six talismans into the red glow on the crocodile while jumping backward to hide behind a pillar.

"Boom!!! Boom!!! Boom!!! Boom!!! Boom!!! Boom!!!" Six explosions appeared.

Trevon looked into the destroyed face of the crocodile.

"Croco!!!" Trevon could hear the Debt Collector's hoarse shout.

"Come here if you dare!" Trevon taunted.

[Weakness Scan!] Trevon once again used his skill. Towards opponent with a lower level, he could use the ability easier. Some blazing talismans followed.

"Boom!!! Boom!!! Boom!!! Boom!!! Boom!!! Boom!!!"

However, this time the Debt Collector was quick. The crocodile retreated from the tower.

Trevon ate some pills before returning outside. "Are you afraid?" He took his sword and taunted the Debt Collector.

"Heoheoheo. What a young master! You also hide in your tortoiseshell. I don't know how, but somehow you can hurt my Croco." The Debt collector saw some damage from Trevon. "He is my friend. You have to pay for this." The debt collector took some bottle. However, the color was different. This was a thicker deep blue color.

"Yes! That is!" Master Rabbink shouted. "That is the Debt Collector's lucky chance. Do what a young master good at! Grab it for yourself. Use your Young Master Aura!"

[How could I use that?] Trevon confused.

"Say 'That is mine!' repeat it"

[That works?] Trevon never knew that this could work. "That is mine! That is mine! That is mine!..."

[What is he saying?] The Debt Collector found it was strange. [This is him?]

"Hahahaha. That is mine." Trevon felt the aura again. It wasn't hard for him to enter the feeling again. He felt he became confident and powerful.

"Good! Now get that before other people come. Gwahahaha." Master Rabbink felt proud with Trevon. [This young master could easily get into the character.]

"Yeah! That is mine." Trevon took several talismans and activated them. Those were attack buff, defense buff, and speed buff talismans.

"Plak... Plak… Plak…" He slapped them into his body. Trevon could feel the energy entered into his body. The young master could hear his muscle screamed for more and more energy.

"Weakness Scan!" Trevon looked into the big crocodile. Some red glow started to appear on the crocodile's body. Of course, only Trevon could see it.

"1.000 Holy Flashes!" The young master used his favorite ability. This time more and more light balls started to appear around Trevon. "GOOOOOO!!!" He pointed into the floating crocodile.

Those holy flashes were weak, but Master Rabbink had improved it. However, the biggest benefit was the number of hits. It was easier to hit the red glows from weakness scan. Trevon didn't need to target those glows, those flashes would hit some and miss some. All based on the blessing of RNGod.

"Hahahaha!" Trevon felt happy. His Weakness Scan aimed to destroy the crocodile wings. Without the wings, it would fall into the sharp and pointed tower below. "A crocodile should stay in the ground or water. Hahahaha!"

The Crocodile's wings were destroyed. It lost the balance.

"Crocro!!!" The Debt Collector shouted.

The Debt Collector took a bottle and spat a blood from biting the lips to the liquid.

"Die!!!" The Debt Collector threw the combination toward Trevon.

"Hahaha…Eh?" Trevon was unprepared for the sudden attack. Most arrogant young masters were so arrogant. Under the aura's influence, he also became more arrogant than normal. This was another weakness of the aura.

"GAaaaaahh! It hits me! It hits me!" Trevon felt a huge absorbing power appeared from the liquid. Other than that, it gave a burning sensation to his skin. Trevon couldn't avoid falling because of the pain. He rolled left and right. His face and hands were hot and very painful.

"AAAAaaaa…" He screamed while rolling on the floor.

"Good!" Master Rabbink shouted.

"What? What's good? Help me!" Trevon felt his spiritual energy getting weaker and weaker.
