The Dragons Landed And So Did The Monsters

.....

Chapter 117: The Dragons Landed And So Did The Monsters

.....

What is more dangerous than the downpour of countless dragons... Are the humans within as Pitou appeared near them within a second only... Only to be stunned looking at the completely unexpected scene before her.

Another human she didn't sense, she didn't see even with her En yet he seems to be casually falling with the other two paying her no heed.

When she spread her 'En' high to the sky, she clearly sensed the two old men, Netero and Zeno.

She sensed their shape and got a general idea of how they look and when they came within her vision which happened to be miles away, she saw their appearance clearly yet she didn't see the person she is looking at right now.

The dark-haired slim man who is wearing a tight long sleeves black shirt that showed his perfectly fit body and his well-defined muscles, black pants, and simple black combat boots.

The long-chain earring on his left ear seems to strangely make no sound as if it's blocked from ever reaching anyone else's ear, even hers.

The man didn't seem to be paying any attention to her at all, instead, his strange eyes seem to look at the palace as if observing something.

Strange eyes as in the different colors, a pitch-black right eye, a black hole that seems to want to absorb what has looked at it or what it looked at yet it gives no feeling like the darkness of the night, quiet yet scary.

And a silvery left eye, one that gives the onlookers a feeling of chilliness, like a being foreign to their kind is looking with its predatory eyes.

She wasn't given enough time to observe the unknown danger before she sensed something else... And she heard something as she turned her head looking at the old man looking down on her as he let out a small laugh.

"Hoho, I've anticipated taking different kinds of attacks but... That's A Bad Move... Little Ant. And You Made A Mistake..."

A motion started as he said that, and she sensed the oncoming threat and wanted to activate her ability.

Her fighting ability 'Terpsichora' an ability she didn't directly activate due to her bafflement noticing another person she didn't sense... A mistake as Netero pointed.

But It was too late as Pitou had to compress her perception to the extreme until time seemed to become still to see the motion at all.

The hand motion performed by Netero in a matter of time incomprehensible for her body as she wasn't able to move at all until... She felt it, the attack that came from a position completely unpredictable to her.

The hand that came from below him and seems to gently touch Pitou sending her flying far away, "I'd appreciate it if you disappeared into the distance..." Remarked Netero before asking directly after, "What do you think?... About the Ants?"

The question seems to be targeted towards the young Zoldyck falling down not far from him and Yasuo provided his point of view.

"Physically stronger than us and so is its Aura amount but the same couldn't be said for its proficiency, its good but could be a lot better and... The ant is inexperienced and it could even be said that it's... innocent in its strange way."

Netero stroked his small beard nodding, "That they are... They are newborns but they're learning and growing, becoming more dangerous."

The Ant was sent flying far away and they continued their flight down not resisting the gravity trying to put them down to the ground and they accepted gravity's embrace... And so did the rain of dragons as they pierced through the palace.

And then Yasuo thought stroking his earring, 'Almost... If I didn't slightly control the result of dragon dive, she would've died... Small changes lead to bigger ones huh.'

His strange eyes seem to peer beyond what anyone can as he looked at the Palace, looking at what's within the Palace, the little girl named Komugi, and what he considers a vital key for his plans, and those plans are about to unfold themself.

Small changes in the past lead to massive changes in the future as just him being there changed how Zeno controlled his ability a bit.

His dragon dive ability that would've caused fatal harm to Komugi was gonna kill her all due to his existence.

All due to the fact that the golden dragon was at a location different from what it would've been if he didn't exist and a different location means that the rain of small dragons is different as well.

And Yasuo couldn't allow such a change to happen so just like what he was doing for the past few months, he started manipulating the invisible strings to make things as he wished them to be.

And he did just that, Manipulating the impact of the falling rubble to only cause fatal wounds similar to what would've happened.

As for the small dragons, any of them just touching her means certain death.

The three fell from high in the sky to the middle of the royal palace perfectly and like a feather falling to the ground, they landed spectacular and elegantly, an elegance and grace fitting people of their statue.

Complete control is what Yasuo has over his body, complete control of every small muscle of his body, to every speck of blood running through his veins.

A combination of all the years of training and his control domain allowed such a thing to be possible.

So every expression Yasuo had, have, or will have is what he himself allowed to appear, his complete control allowed him to be unreadable, not from his heart rate, not from the blood within, he is an absolute mystery.

So... When Yasuo elegantly landed and looked in a certain direction then raised his brows, something they clearly noticed.

"The king is on that way and... There is someone else within the room and it's probably a human... Whose life signals are going down quite fast."

Zeno narrowed his eyes and started heading in that direction with the two following closely behind him without Yasuo using his portals ability as they prefer to keep it secret just in case.

They landed on another building, the building where their goal lies, a building other than the main building as this is where a certain girl is, the fatally wounded girl.

The three walked inside the room, a slightly broken room as even the door is in rubbles, and debris could be seen all around... as well as the pool of blood in the middle of the room.

The two felt something before even entering the room, felt the dark Aura spreading from within, dark enough to let them know the emotions of the creature within.

And they saw the creature within, he has a rather humanoid build for an Ant. A muscular and toned build, despite his relatively small frame as compared to his servants.

He had two long antennae on his ears and a large shell-like armor over his head that resembled a helmet.

There were dark pigmented areas on his arms, legs, chest, and head. He possessed a powerful tail equipped with a stinger that served as his weapon. Both his hands and feet had only four digits each.

This is the Chimera Ants' king Meruem though he doesn't know his name as of yet but they know his general description and their extremely honed senses picked those signs of danger ringing within their mind, picked what that the monster in front of them represents yet they didn't put their guard up.

They didn't put their guard up because their eyes and senses can see what the scene in front of them represents.

The monster crouching with a girl in his embrace, a white-haired girl wearing a long white dress, one that became white no more due to red blood painting it in its color.

The king seems to be embracing her gently with nothing but tenderness, something they didn't expect from someone like him.

From the predator, such emotions just weren't expected so they made no move knowing the scene is the result of their doing.

Zeno turned to Yasuo asking, "You... weren't able to sense her?"

Yasuo just shook his head without a change in his expression or tone, "No... Well, I sensed a life signal here but I naturally assumed it's one of the Chimera Ants, perhaps a young one due to the weak signal so I didn't care."

That is Yasuo's simple explanation, an explanation fitting for someone like him as Zeno knows that in contrast to him, Yasuo doesn't care about rules nor does he care about innocent lives as in even if he killed people that he wasn't hired to kill, he still wouldn't care, he is similar to Illumi and Kikyo in that regard and to a certain extent even Silva.

The question is why would he want something like this to happen to her? In their minds, there is no reason so the two didn't doubt what he had to say.

Though he doesn't care much about whether they believe him or not, instead, he just observed the strongest Chimera Ant within his vision with interest apparent in his eyes...
