Chapter 159 – Serve Me.
Strangely enough, the thought that these could actually be Martial Spirits instead of actual strange entities never occurred to Sword Master Rho and the reason for this was quite simple.
It's by some extremely strange turn of events, those entities were in fact Martial spirits, then added on to the two Martial Spirits Dante already had that would come to a grand total of 7 Martial Spirits!
7 Martial Spirits!
in all his years in the Martial Spirit world Sword Master Rho had never heard something more ridiculous.
statistically speaking it was actually much more likely that Dante had 5 strange entities sealed in his soul than 5 more dormant martial spirits!
Besides, in Sword master Rho's head, strange entities living in someone else's mind wasn't even that rare of an occurrence.
wasn't he doing it himself?
If he could do it then surely someone else could.
but even so, five entities…
Sword Master Rho knew that even if he had lost to the boy, it was not in vain.
There was obviously something abnormal about this kid or else which normal boy his age had sealed 5 powerful entities in his soul!
As these shocking thoughts were still swirling in the mind of Sword Master Rho, Dante merely looked down on the man with a cold sneer.
He just ignored the words of Sword master Rho who was begging for death as he coldly spoke
"I'm not interested in speaking to you. Bring out Klent." Said Dante
hearing this, Sword Master Rho gave what could only be described as a mental shrug before rescinding control of the body back to Klent.
As soon as Klent regained control of the body the first thing he did Was let off a pained groan
This was because with full control of the body also came the full weight of sensations of the body.
Burns, Bruises, Broken bones.
Klent could feel them all as soon as he regained control.
But despite the excruciating pain, Klent still refused to show weakness before Dante.
Just because he had lost the fight didn't mean he would be humiliated!
Before he called Dante here he knew what he was getting into.
As a child of Heaven, he knew better than anyone else the consequences of losing.
The heavens didn't tolerate loss.
The only option for losers was death
so Klent didn't even bother asking Dante for pity.
Instead he just raised his head as he stared down Dante with a pair of fierce eyes asking
"Why did you call me out here? Is it just to humiliate me?
Well if that's all you want, then kill me now! I Won't let you get that twisted satisfaction"
Hearing Klent's outburst, Dante wasn't fazed and instead just lightly chuckled as he watched his display.
"Why are you in such a hurry to Ask for death?" Asked Dante
"Don't tell me that you actually want to die?"
But Klent don't seem to share even half of the amusement that Dante had and asked in a cold tone.
"So you're telling me there's a way out for me to survive?"
Although Klent's change from wanting a swift death to questions about survival might be surprising, it actually made more sense than you think.
nobody wants to die.
This was especially true for people with a bright future to look forward to.
Due to this fact, it wasn't surprising to see Klent search for any path of survival.
Although he may not be as talented as Dante, Klent was still a generational talent in his own right.
In 5 years Klent was confident he could skyrocket his strength and place himself in the top echelons of the Vaenam Kingdom power system.
Besides, with all the stories and experiences Sword Master Rho had told him about, Klent knew there was more to this world he couldn't have imagined!
Klent didn't want to die!
He wanted to see it all!
He wanted to see everything this world had to offer!
While such a passion for life might be admirable, it was this very same passion that Dante could also use to his advantage.
Seeing the spark in Klent's eyes, Dante slowly let out a crafty smile.
"Klent! No matter how hard you try to deny it, you simply aren't on my level!"
As soon as Klent heard this his body flinched.
Although this was the cold reality of his situation, it still hurt his pride to hear it so plainly.
"But this doesn't mean you're not talented" continued Dante
"In fact, I even admire your talent."
"It would be a waste for you to die because of your pride so that's why I'll ask you again."
Submit to me Klent.
Swear to serve me!
As Dante said this an imperious aura could be felt overflowing from his very bones
"serve you.." hearing this Klent was left stunned.
He had always considered Dante as someone on his level.
A competitor just out of his reach that with lots of hard work and training, he could possibly even hope to fight
But as time progressed the gap between them didn't close.
Instead, it only got further and further!
It had even gotten to the point where Klent subconsciously didn't even dare fight Dante head-on anymore.
Even now, although he had planned this fight with Dante, Klent's original aim had always been to allow Sword Master Rho to possess him and take control.
He never thought he could beat Dante by himself in the first place! He wouldn't be so stupid as to risk his fight in a battle he thought he could lose
But even though these thoughts had always been in the back of Klent's mind, what Dante was asking was still very big.
Dante was asking him to submit to him, and give up hopes of trying to beat him and swear to serve him.
Klent was truly torn between the two options.
On one hand, there was a path to escape the death that had always been plaguing him as a child of heaven.
