8 Bang

Even if Earth had seen much worse, in the form of mass killings and massacres, there had never been a case of such a huge mass kidnapping yet. The fact that nobody knew whether the people who had vanished were dead or alive made it that much more important.

There were many people in that Land of Inheritance. Some were the sons and daughters of influential people, while some were sons and daughters of high level X Warriors and X Mages, not that there was any difference between the two.

The influential people were used to forcing others to do their bidding, by hook or by crook, but this time they were stumped, as even the grandson of X Works' CEO had been transported to the mysterious Land of Inheritance. Even the only disciple of Fuar, The Master of Frost, had been transported to the god forsaken mysterious Land of Inheritance. These influential people were starting to get more and more agitated as time passed, and some even began to overtake the governments of their regions and became the dictators of these places. Prime among them included The Queen of England, The Fuerer of Germany and even the Lider of Russian Mafia and the Donna of Italy.

These people were helpless to do anything against X Works as they had monopoly over all X Gear, as nobody else had been able to start their own line of X element infused gear to date. Nobody wanted to offend their only source of strength for the sake of something that wasn't even their fault.

For these people who were waiting for any developments whatsoever regarding this issue, the interface that showed them that information was like spring rain over a desert. They didn't know what use this information was to them, but they had it nonetheless. They were quite pleased with the information everyone was getting for free, so everybody was happy for a while, as even the dictators gave their subjects quite the freedom.

But the chance of someone you knew being that one in a ninety nine thousand nine hundred and ninety nine was still enough to give them a huge scare.

[ Champion#997, Title 'Moonlight Archer' has died.

The title 'Moonlight Archer' can now be conferred upon the killer based on their choice.

Beast#13 'Lightning Lion' can't inherit the title.

Moonlight Archer descendant branch#37 has been destroyed. ]

#-------------------------#

Grim stopped for just a second to look at the notification in front of his eyes. He was shocked first and foremost to even see the interface, but the information it gave him made him look at the lion like animal in front of him differently.

There were a few points to note, which he did as he stared down the lion from a distance of at least 10 meters.

Numero uno, Somebody just died and they too had a title, just like himself.

Numero Dos, they were called a champion. He remembered that when he got conferred the title Flame Reaper, he got some small fragments of different memories. He recalled that Heroes were more powerful than Champions, but that just meant he was less vulnerable than them, not invincible. That lion in front of him could kill him just as well if he was careless.

Numero tres, people were going to want to kill each other if a title can be conferred upon the killer of the previous holder, and if titles were needed to become a hero, this place would be a total bloodbath.

Numero cuatro, the lion in front of him might very well be a lightning lion, like the one that killed 997. If that was the case, all beasts he might find from here on might be monsters, just like the ones on Earth.

Numero Cinto, there were more people here, and they might have the same titles as himself if there were branches of title inheritors.

He smirked as he thought of fighting against people as strong or even stronger than himself.

He clenched his right fist as two balls of flame appeared around his bracelet and rotated in the opposite direction as it did. He made a slight gesture with both his hands and the balls vanished.

He lifted his right hand straight at the lion as a gun, which looked more like a hand cannon slowly materialized in his hand. He slowly pressed the trigger and a loud bang reverberated through the jungle behind the lion, Followed by roars of beasts and the cries of birds.
