Reborn into A Slash Game-Chapter 56 - Grantlyn: Fey, Don't Be Willful
Chapter 56 - Grantlyn: Fey, Don’t Be Willful
This troop was truly not small. Suo Fei had no idea what they wanted to do, but when Grantlyn hacked the Holy Tree, there were only seven of them helping him. Now, however, there were many black-robed men.
Suo Fei roughly estimated that there were at least forty of them.
At this moment, the black-robed men dispersed and surrounded them in a semi-circle. The red dragon was too huge, thus they could only enclose Suo Fei and his group while facing the dragon.
The troop had come prepared, and certainly with a purpose.
As for what their purpose was, Suo Fei pursed his lips. He and Samael didn’t have anything worth being attracted to. They probably came for the treasury’s hidden treasure, or perhaps for this red dragon.
At present, apart from the black-robed men, the only people who remained conscious were Suo Fei and his group as well as the red dragon.
The red dragon flew into a rage and bellowed, “Intruders! ”
The sound was blaring, and was completely spoken in Yalance’s common language. Suo Fei stared blankly, This red dragon could actually speak the common language.
When the red dragon finished roaring, Samael proceeded to say, “Carry me on your back and let me obstruct these invaders.” The dragon lowered his head, motioning for Samael to come up.
Without any hesitation, Samael quickly moved towards Suo Fei, picked him up, and then lightly jumped, leaping more than ten metres high and effortlessly landing on the red dragon’s wide back.
Suo Fei only reacted after realising that he was on the red dragon’s firm back. Then, he was somewhat worried about the four still-unconscious people below. He didn’t know how they would fare in this situation.
His worries were immediately dispelled.
Four black-robed men appeared next to Abel, Lancelot, Harris and Manzy, who were lying unconscious on the ground and carried them.
Suo Fei wrinkled his brows with slight distrust. Looking at the situation, the black-robed men didn’t intend to treat them as cannon fodders. It was only that he didn’t know if they had other uses.
Suo Fei sighed, At least their lives are not in danger.
Grantlyn’s gaze had not moved away from Suo Fei ever since he appeared.
Suo Fei had previously consumed too much energy when fighting with the fireball fatty. Although the Disguise Spell didn’t use up much energy, it still needed to use energy at all times to maintain the disguise.
During the fight with the fireball fatty, Suo Fei wholeheartedly defended himself. Naturally, he didn’t have the mental capacity to continue maintaining the Disguise Spell. After over-consuming his energy, he also dared not cast another Disguise Spell.
Thus, he had already resumed his original appearance.
In fact, it was easy for his Disguise Spell to deceive Manzy and the others. However, it was most likely useless for people at Grantlyn’s level, hence he didn’t bother wasting any more of his remaining energy.
The dragon’s back was wide, providing a broad range of vision. Looking down from up above, it made Suo Fei feel as if he was condescendingly looking down at Grantlyn.
However, even though Grantlyn was looking up at Suo Fei, his imposing manner was not reduced in the slightest. He stared at Suo Fei, the emotion in his crimson eyes indiscernible.
When Abel and the others had been taken away, Grantlyn looked at Suo Fei and slowly spoke, “Fey, come here.”
Suo Fei wanted to laugh at what he said. Grantlyn is taking me for a fool, huh. He’s definitely thinking that I’m a fool! Although the two were father and son in name, hadn’t they severed this relationship a long time ago? They could not even be considered as mere strangers, they were enemies!
When he thought of Vixanne’s death, more blood rushed into Suo Fei’s head in anger. Fey, your a**! Come here, your a**!You really think you’re all that.
Suo Fei was unable to speak it out, but it showed in his actions. He tightly clasped Samael’s hand and stayed still. He did nothing else, acting as if he was deaf.
Grantlyn frowned. He was just about to say something when the demon beside him spoke, “Lil’ elf, quickly come here. It would be bad if you get accidentally injured in a while.”
Suo Fei remained indifferent. He had no trust in Grantlyn. This person didn’t deserve his trust.
Grantlyn’s sight landed on Suo Fei’s hand that was tightly gripping Samael’s. He was silent for a while before he spoke in a much softer tone, “Fey, come here. Don’t be willful. I don’t want to hurt you.”
What are you pretending for? Why are you showing concern for your son at this moment?Don’t you remember what you did?
Moreover, Suo Fei perceptively caught the hidden meaning of his words. Once he had come over, Grantlyn would kill Samael.
This recognition made Suo Fei completely enraged. First, he caused Vixanne’s death and now, he even planned to kill Samael. Grantlyn really regarded him as a pushover that could be easily controlled as he wished.
It was true that Suo Fei was not good at interacting with people, but it didn’t mean that he was a fool.
Squinting his eyes, Suo Fei suppressed his anger and, as if he was finally afraid, he softly spoke with a slight tremor in his voice, “Father… You… I…”
His voice was very soft and his words were extremely unclear. He discreetly glanced at Samael, looking as if he was afraid to speak out.
Grantlyn had been staring at Suo Fei thus he caught the subtle expression on his face. He pondered then told the black-robed man beside him, “Go and take him here.”
The black-robed men paused but eventually stepped forward.
Suo Fei sneered in his heart. Truly a coward. If you have the guts, you should come over yourself. However, he also surmised that Grantlyn would not take the risk. Wounding one of them is already good enough, as long as they are able to escape!
As soon as the black-robed man was near, Suo Fei leapt up, brandished his dagger and struck into the man’s vital part. The black-robed man was on guard. He immediately blocked Suo Fei’s attack, but was unable to defend against the oncoming sharp, black blade. His chest was pierced and he collapsed to the ground.
It all happened in an instant, with Suo Fei and Samuel tacitly cooperating with each other, followed with the bellow of the red dragon.
The father and son’s nonsense time was cruelly interrupted.
Grantlyn’s eyes were raging with fury. He unsheathed his longsword, ready for battle at any moment.
The red dragon was massive. Hence, when it spewed out fire, it was more than ten metres high. The fire surged towards the black-robed men. The black-robed men were a force to be reckoned with. They instantly assembled into a formation and cast a huge ice shield, reflecting the fire back.
Then, a volley of arrows fell from the sky. The red dragon spread open its enormous wings, covering the horizon and protecting Samael and the others. The arrows that landed on its sturdy wings didn’t break but dissolved instead.
Suo Fei’s eyes narrowed slightly. The arrows are poisoned!
But the red dragon’s skin was not merely for show. Not only was it impervious to swords and spears, it was even unaffected by poison or fire! It was truly too awesome.
Seeing that the red dragon was unscathed, Suo Fei breathed a sigh of relief. He and Samael simply didn’t need to take any action. The red dragon’s fighting capability alone was already heaven-defying.
The strength of the black-robed men was absolutely at the top in Yalance. Even so, they were still helpless when facing the red dragon even after exerting all their strength.
They could only passively receive a beating. The red dragon not only released fire-type magic attacks. It also unleashed a powerful physical attack by waving its tail.
Suo Fei thought to himself that if this was a game, he would definitely see the black-robed men’s HP dropping like crazy while the red dragon’s outrageous HP was only dropping bit by bit.
Its defense simply couldn’t be broken, alright!
The sense of superiority from being the ultimate big boss in a game is too awesome!
Suo Fei wanted to cheer for the red dragon. You can do this! Torture them to death! Who asked them to bully us? This is definitely their retribution! Muahaha!
In particular, when Suo Fei saw Grantlyn’s clothes being burned to ashes, he felt extremely refreshed. This is revenge for Vixanne! This is revenge for the dead Sofey Evans! Have a taste of what karma feels like!
Wait. Suo Fei who was feeling complacent suddenly saw a familiar face in the group of black-robed men.
His physique gradually turned into a huge body with sturdy arms. His bell-like eyes were ferocious.
Suo Fei’s heart thumped. It was the King of Trolls — Balnor.
Others don’t understand, but when Suo Fei caught sight of Balnor, he felt a burst of coldness. Balnor had previously reduced his size and concealed himself within the crowd.
At this time, Suo Fei recalled Grantlyn’s words and came to a realisation.
Earlier, he wondered how could Grantlyn be so kind. When he was in Valinor, he already wasn’t concerned about the fate of his wife and child so how could he show concern now? Suo Fei deliberately pretended to lead him to take the bait and Grantlyn actually asked someone to take him. Such an obvious trap, yet Grantlyn actually easily entered it.
He thought that Grantlyn had gone nuts but as it turned out, they were only stalling for time!
The Trolls’ artifact was called the Transmogrifier. As its name implied, it could transform the body or object’s shape. It could be used on both living and non-living objects.
In the game, Suo Fei had obtained the Transmogrifier. He had to engage in a life-and-death battle with the Trolls. He managed to win with difficulty but he suffered heavy losses. Then, he used the Transmogrifier to reduce Hull’s size and brought him away from the abyss.
Suo Fei had used the Transmogrifier before thus he knew that this thing had an activating time. Moreover, the user had to remain motionless. The artifact also had a cooldown time.
If it was used by someone like Balnor, the cooldown might only take a few seconds, but if it was used by the red dragon who was around a hundred metres tall, the cooldown would be much longer.
Suo Fei had used it on Hull before thus he had a deep understanding of it.
As soon as the black-robed men arrived, the Transmogrifier was already on cooldown. Killing the huge dragon had never been their purpose. They were stalling for time, that’s all.
Grantlyn discovering him and persuading him were nothing but him merely stalling for time. Suo Fei had quickly ended their conversation and started their fight due to his anger but even an insignificant fraction of a second could decide the outcome of their battle.
Suo Fei was extremely upset. He had been too confident of the power of Samael, the huge dragon and the fireball fatty. In addition, he had never expected that Balnor would appear in this place.
Why did Balnor get mixed up with the black-robed men? What do they want to achieve?
Suo Fei didn’t have the time to think of it. At this moment, he was determined to prevent the Transmogrifier from successfully activating. The reason why it’s so precious was not because of its ability to transform shapes. More importantly, it could be used to suppress other people’s power.
That was the reason it had a cooldown town. It needed to lock on the target and determine how much space it required to store the target’s power.
If they succeed, the huge dragon’s fighting strength would disappear.
By then, there would only be Samael and the fireball fatty left to face the more than forty black-robed men.
Suo Fei felt cold deep inside.
This group of people absolutely had the ability to force Samael to go out of control.
The author has something to say: I read a novel last night until the wee hours of the morning. It was so good… But when I thought about it again, I felt frustrated. How could others write so well? The plot is coherent, the writing is well-organised and the characters are outstanding! I really need to redouble my efforts ahhhh! Uh, I guess y’all might want to ask which novel is it. I wouldn’t say the name la but it’s BG. The novels I read are quite random.
