chapter 19 - Emperor rank

Notice :

"slave" is replaced with "puppet"

************"

"you...!"

kai was shock to see those 6 missing persons whom he thought was dead were seated infront of him and drinking wine asif like nothing had happen .

"you damn bastards !!! did you know how much trouble you have all put me to " kai was raging out but those six of them were acting asif like nothing is happening .

Kai notice them and was irritated by their action but he knew that something was so wrong here so he tried to dig deep .

He took the chair beside them and sat on the same table as them .

"Now since you are all here ,mind explaining ?" kai was trying to take things without making trouble .

Yet those six of them were still indifferent and drinking their wine .After a moment of pause ,Hugo who was the leader among them turn to kai with emotionless expression and said .

"We are no more ,snake gang members .We serve a greater master now " the answer of Hugo blew an interest in Kai's mind .

He knew by the very fact that having the ability to convince Hugo and his team was not an easy thing and the person who did this was either an expert or a person from high background .

"oh ,but I hope you know the consequences for betraying our snake gang " kai was trying to see their reaction

"why do we even care ,after some few weeks there will be no more snake gang" Hugo replied indifferently without any hesitation or emotion .

Kai was dumbfounded by the reply as well as irritated , when did snake gang became such an easy target ?

"hoho ...looks like you guys got guts after following your new leader huh .....well no matter you guys are still going to die by my hands" Kai spoke releasing some of his king pressure which suffocated the whole room .

At that time a waiter came while sweating "gentleman please no fighting in the store "

When kai heard this he turn his head annoyingly and just swing his finger cutting down the waiter's head in one strock .

"If you guys don't want to die scram !!!" kai spoke after which the people who were present ,all ran out of the store including waiters and waitresses .

In the store only those 6 person and kai was present .Kai was still suprise to see that those 6 has still not show any sign of change expression .

"hahaha ...you guys are acting tough huh ,let's see how long you guys can last " with that being said kai rush towards those people .

*************

Back in the Noble section in Albo's house . Albo was seated on his bed with cross-leg absorbing the energy around him ,at that time a sudden system ringing came .

*beep*

[puppet No. 3 killed ]

!!!!

Albo frown with the sudden death ,he knew that those 6 were doing their job without anyones notice but realise that they have come across a trouble .

He then decided to connect his mind with Hugo to see what was going on ."Mind connection" was one of Albo's skill where he could connect his mind to his puppet and see what his puppet are seeing .

Short after the skill was used albo could see a clear image of Hugo and his team were fighting against an early king rank opponent.

*beep*

[puppet No. 5 killed ]

Albo was quite shock that those 6 were so bold to fight against a strong opponent but he didn't have the time to think much so without wasting any time he rush towards the site .

************

In the store ,4 people were still alive with heavy injuries but without any emotion face and kai also was slightly injured but only just a scratch . The store was almost torn open with the surrounding area damage .

Kai was quite surprised to see that those 4 were still willing to put their life on the line for their new leader .

'what actually could have happen ' kai question in his mind as he was rushing towards them but Suddenly he felt a strong pressure which he never felt before .

His instinct gave a strong warning which he never felt before and as he was about to flee ,a strong heavenly pressure felt unto him and nailed him to the ground .

*boom*

Kai was nailed to the ground with a strong pressure by albo ,kai was shock as well as horrified by the sudden appearance of a powerful expert.

Lucky albo came in time preventing his puppets from dying .Albo sigh in relief and turn towards his remaining 4 puppets and spoke "Go and heal your own injuries ,I will handle the situation "

Those 4 nodded and went towards their own direction .Albo then turn towards the nailed kai and spoke "well well well if it isn't a person from a snake gang "

Kai wanted to lift his head and look towards the speaker but he couldn't even move an inch of his body .

"I..I'm ..s..sorryy ...I did-" kai was speaking with difficulty but his words were cut short .

"well no matter what you say , since you guys were the first to mess with me I will try to mess with you guys too "

Kai knew that no person in this city was as powerful as this even their forebearer so he didn't know how did they mess with this powerful being . All sorts of thoughts were going in Kai's mind ,he was intelligent by nature so he knew who to provoke and whom to not .

"Any last word " albo was planning on killing kai but suddenly a system voice came up to him

[Master, I suggest that you keep him as your puppet .He has some intelligence so he will be quite useful ]

The sudden words from the system made albo realise something that his first 6 puppets has less intelligence so they had provoke a powerful opponent without them knowing .

The maxing slot for puppet was 8 so he was not so worried . Albo headed towards the nailed kai and spoke .

"Welcome my new slave"

"wha- " before kai could respond or know even the situation he was black out by the system .

Kai's memory was now being erased replacing with the new memory ,the whole process took about like 10 mins after which kai was brought to his senses with emotionless face and kneel towards albo .

"Your slave is here master "

Albo just gave a slight evil smile .

"I have a job for you , I want you to avoid any trouble while slowly destroying the snake gang ,after which I myself will take part and destroy it .so in this few weeks I don't want any trouble " Albo gave an order to his new puppet .

"I understand master " kai spoke after which he vanish towards the snake gang headquarter .Albo breath out a deep exhaust and look towards his surroundings .

"what a disaster " after which he also vanish from his spot and headed towards his house . He was one step towards breaking through emperor rank so he didn't wanted to waste much of his time .

Albo was now in his room while trying to breakthrough emperor rank . He was sweating profoundly as he was absorbing a huge amount of energy around him .The amount of energy in the noble section was much richer compared to the slum region so it was a huge boost of benifit for albo .

Short after absorbing a rich amount of energy , Albo's body began to glow covering him with a bright green light. His battle power was increasing alongside with his potential power . Albo was now undergoing a huge limit breaking changes which lasted for a while after which the whole situation was over and albo back to his usual senses

Albo got up from his bed and notice that his sweat has soke the bed wet but he was not so concern about it ,what he was more concern was his power .

[Present potential : 110,950]

[potential limit : ????????????]

[evolution. : 1st phase ]

[limit breaker : burn the users life force for a limitless power ]

[??????????????]

[????????????????]

Albo was quite surprised by the sudden new information, so he asked

"Hey system what is this limit breaker "

[ master, it is skill which is unlock when a person elevates to emperor rank .But every person gets different skills depending on their force potential ]

Albo now had a clear understanding about special skills which can be unlock . He had hundreds of skills but those were just a normal skills which were not worth mentioning .

He wanted to try this new special skill but it uses his life force so he didn't wanted to use it . He still didn't think that anything can threaten his life since he is so strong but albo was still in a small city who was not aware of the world . There are still many countless beings who can threaten him but he has not come across any of them so he didn't know it .
