Armipotent

Chapter 498 - Nol

Tang Shaoyang felt that there was a force that tried to pry his head open, digging into his memories. He could feel the force was trying to see his memories and try to control his head. He resisted, which caused the splitting headache to mount up.

—Hey, what's wrong with you? What happened?

While the Spirit and the Master shared their vision and sometimes their minds, but not with the other senses. Rosalie could not feel the pain Tang Shaoyang experienced right now.

Tang Shaoyang knelt and clutched his head, shaking his head fiercely. After the force failed to see his memories, it tried to control him now. He could hear a voice that tugged him, telling him to surrender or something like that. At this point, he was aware this was the rat beastmen's witchcraft.

Tang Shaoyang raised his head despite the pain, his slit pupil became thinner as fury and killing intent radiated from him. His eyes looked at Aki who tried to control him through his class, Mind Control.

Whoosh!

All kinds of aura burst out from Tang Shaoyang, [Sovereign Aura] and [Slayer Domination] blended within the atmosphere, causing Aki to collapse on his knees.

Plop!

The rat beastmen fell as his red eyes widened in shock. The pain in his head vanished after that and he stood up immediately. If he was asked what he hated the most, it was being controlled. The helpless feeling of not being able to do anything to save her lover from his Boss' nephew in the past and being ordered around. That was what he hated the most.

The reason he wanted to be an Emperor was so the same thing would not repeat. He did not want to get controlled but he was the one who controlled his life. His ambition was born from that. Now there was a little creature that tried to control him through his skill.

"I don't need you alive. I hate your type the most. I will kill you!" Tang Shaoyang approached the kneeling Aki. The rat beastmen opened his mouth, trying to say something but no words came out of his mouth. It kept opening and closed, just like a fish that gaped for air.

Tang Shaoyang's hand reached Aki's neck and raised the rat beastmen to the air. The rat beastmen's feet were kicking in the air as he struggled under Tang Shaoyang's grasp, "E-even if you kill me, you can't win against the Dark Tribe! There's someone stronger than you and they have a big army while you are alone!"

"What is this? Now you try to threaten me with your tribe that your life is in my hands?" Tang Shaoyang sneered.

"N-No, I am just informing you. You are weak and you can't win against them." Aki said that then he closed his eyes, "It is my problem, your time is over."

Tang Shaoyang's grip tightened as the rat beastmen ran out of breath. He was about to crush the rat beastmen's neck until a childish voice rang in the tunnel, "Wait! Don't kill Grandpa Aki!"

Aki's eyes shot open as he yelled, "No! Don't come here! Don't come here, Nol!" However, his command did not work as Tang Shaoyang saw the same rat beastmen coming out from the tunnel. This rat beastmen was only three-quarters of Aki in height. His small body was shaking as the little rat approached Tang Shaoyang.

The little rat stopped when the distance was around four meters away and he knelt with his face on the ground, "Please, don't kill Grandpa Aki. I am willing to do anything as long as you don't kill him. I am even willing to be your slave!"

Tang Shaoyang looked at the resigned Aki and looked at the smaller rat beastmen. He then cast [Basic Detection] at the smaller rat beastmen.

"Why should I listen to you? You are pretty useless. You don't even have a class, how can you be useful to me?" Tang Shaoyang's deep voice flowed out and echoed in the tunnel as he focused his gaze on Nol. The little rat beastmen's body was shaking fiercely at the question. Nol could not think of his use to this man since he did not know what this human wanted.

"I-I… I-I can control a few low-levels of my kind to build you an underground house!?" Nol came up with this idea. He did not know if the underground house could be useful for Tang Shaoyang or not, but he just said it to save his Grandpa Aki.

"Look at how cute your Grandson is? He said he will build me an underground house," Tang Shaoyang looked at Aki. The rat beastmen did not dare to meet Tang Shaoyang's eyes, Aki lowered his head to avoid the gaze, "Since you tried to control me, what about if I control your Grandson's fate first."

Aki raised his head and looked at him with his eyes wide open. His body was trembling even fiercer, "I will pull each of his claws first, then I will dig his eyes one by one for you to see." As Tang Shaoyang said that, Aki's body was shaking even more fiercely.

"Oh, maybe I will save the eyes for the last. What about if I skin him first, take some of your grandson's tender meat to feed the Infant Dark Predator? I bet that guy will love your grandson's son." Tang Shaoyang smiled at Aki, "Don't worry, I have a healer. I will heal your Grandson so he will die quickly. I am not done yet."

"I will do that. I will do everything as long as you don't kill Grandfather Aki!" Nol's voice followed up.

"I am not wrong, he's cute. He's thinking we are in an equal position to make a deal," Tang Shaoyang's grin became wider. Without a doubt, Tang Shaoyang would do that to make this rat beastmen suffer.

Aki's shoulder slumped weakly as he had given up to act strong, he could not let Nol suffer in this human's hand, "Let's make a deal. You must want something from me, I will do it for you and you can kill me after we finish the deal, but in exchange, please let Nol live."

"You are as cute as your Grandson," Tang Shaoyang shook his head, "You are not in the position to make a deal with me, Rat! You have thrown away your chance, now you don't have any choice but to listen to me if you don't want your Grandson to suffer in my hand."

Aki tried to refute Tang Shaoyang, but he just opened his mouth with no words. He did not have any words to say. The human's words were true, his and his Grandson's life was at his mercy. He was not in the position to make a deal.

"Alright, it's time to return, I guess." Tang Shaoyang was still holding Aki in his hand, "Follow me, little rat." Nol stood up and followed Tang Shaoyang into the underground space.

'Should I attack his mind once again and buy time for Nol to run?' Aki was scheming in his head, but then he threw away the thoughts. The mind attack did not last long, it would be easy for the human to catch up. Dark Tremor was famous for their teamwork to hunt the stronger prey than them, not for their speed.

Tang Shoayang wanted to pick the little kitten but he was afraid of disturbing his evolution, 'Can I bring him with me, Rosalie?' She was the one who told him to not kick the little kitten as it might disturb the evolution process. He wondered if picking it up would disturb the kitten or not.

—I think it's fine if you just bring it with you. I don't think that will disturb the Dark Predator's evolution. Unless you try to kick it again.

Rosalie replied with a bit of sarcasm in her tone. Tang Shaoyang ignored the last part and picked up the little kitten. He put the little guy on his shoulder and looked toward the little rat beastmen, "Hold onto your Grandpa!" Nol leaped onto his Grandpa, holding onto the fur tightly.

Just like that, he carried the rat Grandpa and Grandson with him back to the town. He planned to explore the forest to find what kind of creature lived in the forest. He never planned to explore the deeper part of the forest, not yet.
