"Just kidding!" Yuki said with a smile. Of course this was the most outlandish thing he could've said in his situation. After all, he was required to do his duty being that he was meant to kill Mark, Batol and the rest of them on the spot. After all, they had just spent the previous minutes trying to kill Yuki along with Arthur who was the clan leader of the WD clan and his top 5 strongest members of his guild.
After finally arriving at a point where Yuki would be on top, it made absolutely no sense for him to let his enemy just leave without any consequences. It raised several questions about if Yuki was stupid or outlandishly confident.
"Huh? Why would you do that? You do realize that if your clan leader were to hear of this, you would most likely get kicked out of your clan but you'll also get killed for betraying your own people," said Batol to Yuki.
"Oh that's right. I almost forgot about the conditions I had set for this battle. I guess everything really does work out in the end for me," said Yuki as he had already laid something out which was why he chose to let Batol and the others live.
"Give me a second, I'll be back," said Yuki to Batol before shutting his eyes so he could speak to Zero for a moment.
"Hey Zero, could you teleport just Arthur here," Yuki requested to which Zero instantly replied.
"It would be my pleasure," said Zero before forcing Arthur alone to get teleported back into the room who looked to be crouching while in a hiding position which was the least bit leader-like.
...
"Uh, Arthur?" Yuki said as he tried to notify Arthur who had his eyes closed as if he feared getting attacked to open his eyes as he had been teleported into a place which he didn't intend to be in.
"How did I get back here?..." Arthur asked himself in a whisper before quickly getting up and trying to cover up what he was doing.
"I was just stretching. It's a secret technique which I do to keep me as the strongest player in this world," said Arthur in a proud tone.
"Wow, I even thought it was impossible to stoop this low to cover up a shameful act but you just broke that. Anyway, I have a question," said Yuki as he needed to ask Arthur a question.
"Oh I can see that you're on the verge of killing them. I see, so you wanted me to witness your victory didn't you?" Arthur asked in a proud tone.
"No, not really. That's not why I called you here. I just want you to fulfil your part of our deal," said Yuki to which Arthur tried to think for a moment before finally remembering.
"Oh that's right! I remember now. Yes, I still intend to fulfill our deal. As long as you defeat them, the clan is all yours," said Arthur in a nonchalant voice which shocked the members of FFF so much that their hearts nearly stopped.
"So what are you waiting for? Kill them already. After that, I need you to go down stairs and stop the rest of their members," said Arthur in a demanding tone.
"Great then!" Yuki replied with a smile before turning to face Batol.
"So I see, you really were going to kill us. I guess we have no choice but to accept our fate with honour," said Batol and he closed his eyes in preparation for his death.
"Batol, I want you to hand over ownership of the FFF clan. I want to own the clan. Hence I want to take over as the clan leader," said Yuki as if he had just asked for something simple like asking for a pencil.
"Like hell I would give you the clan! Do you think I'm an idiot to let someone like you take the clan?! I'll die in cold blood before I give you the privilege of running the clan! As soon as I die, it'll get disbanded since there won't be a leader!" said Batol as if he had just won even though he was at Yuki's mercy.
"Let me make things a bit more clear then. I'll let you all live as long as you hand over the leader position to me. Do you really think a simple title is worth your life? And keep in mind, it's not just your life which will be impacted if you refuse my offer. Mark's life along with the rest of your clan will be slaughtered by my hands. Do not be so selfish and try to think about the lives of others for once," said Yuki as he pushed Batol to a corner.
"Dammit! Why did I have to challenge this clan! I knew I could take on Arthur and the rest of them! So why is this unknown kid getting in my way now?! No one had even heard of him and yet he brought our entire oppression to a halt all by himself! Do I really have no option other than to let him take the clan? Wait..." Batol said to himself as he thought of something.
"Arthur! Would you really be okay with letting this kid take over your clan and ours as well? I mean after all, if we hand over the clan, he won't kill us. To add on, he would have too much power on his hands," said Batol in a voice which tried to convince Arthur to join him and take on Yuki.
"I guess that would put me at quite the disadvantage," said Arthur as he began to weigh his odds.
"Arthur, don't forget that our deal was to defeat FFF not necessarily kill them. As such, as long as they admit defeat, our deal will have met its conditions. Of course if they don't agree to let me have control over their clan, I'll just kill them all," said Yuki as he stated clearly as if he was already guaranteed to win the battle of minds.
"I can see that but still. You having control over one clan, let alone two is just too much for someone like you. I fear I'm going to have to recall the deal-" Arthur began to speak at which Yuki stared back at him with eyes filled with death only and nothing else which caused Arthur himself to get startled a bit.
"Oh so it's a fight you want? It's a fight you'll get," said Arthur after seeing the scars which were already on Yuki's body which were caused by FFF. In Arthur's head, he assumed that he could easily defeat Yuki since he was already worn out from his battle with FFF.
"Might I remind you. I was able to defeat the high ranking members of FFF along with two of them being clan leader material all by myself. And don't go on forgetting our very first interaction," said Yuki as he indirectly warned Arthur about what he was going up against.
"Our very first interaction?..." Arthur asked himself as he tried to remember but Yuki would help him out in just a moment.
"It seems that you've already forgotten. Let me help you remember," said Yuki before closing his eyes to speak to another entity which wasn't one.
"Hey One, send a large shock of presence to Arthur's heart," said Yuki to One with a rather sinister grin.
"You got it boss," One replied before doing as he was told. Unfortunately for Arthur, that meant that he would have to bear the torture of his heart literally getting focibly stoped along with it getting shocked by what felt like lightning itself at the same time.
After only just a second, Arthur fell to his knees from being unable to bear the torture he was being put through. He grasped his chest as he tried to bring the pain to a stop but that didn't help in the least.
Seeing as he had learned his lesson, Yuki ordered One to stop the heart torture and allow Arthur to live normally once more.
"Do you remember now? I hope that jogged your memory unless you would like that to happen once again," said Yuki with a fake gentle smile.
"What just happened? Why did Arthur fall down suddenly as if Yuki planned it? Why does Arthur look scared of Yuki? Is he really about to win?! I can't allow this," said Batol to himself as he watched Yuki smile at Arthur.
"Arthur, don't do it! We cannot allow him to defeat us! Be strong, together we can defeat him!" Batol pleased to which the scared Arthur's expression turned stone cold as he stared at Batol with a sharp gaze which stopped him from even moving.
"Do not dare to ever interrupt my conversation. Yuki can't be defeated. That's a hard fact," said Arthur to Batol before turning to face Yuki once again.
"Yuki, for here on out I appoint you to be the new leader of the WD clan," said Arthur with a cold expression as if his soul had just been sucked out.
