Chapter 380: 380: A Storm is Coming?

"Listen, I don't govern this world anymore, my daughter did it for me out of her will. I know my daughter, she had different objectives right behind her eyes the moment she wanted to wore the mantle that I've earned painstakingly," the old man chuckled.

"However, seeing my own daughter that is ruthless and cold-blooded, having beautiful auburn hair and the figure of a goddess, even her own mather pale in comparison... I couldn't help but feel blessed. Now, this is the extent of my patience, your choice, I don't mind ending Nistan's army right here and now, your boss still calls me older brother!"

The old patriarch heard the speech, all of the sect leaders did. He knew the old man before him was not the type to be all talk, the latter bite and he bit hard.

"P-please, let's not rashly jump to a conclusion here."

The old patriarch immediately changed his demeanor and actions. The haughtiness and cheekiness from before were gone. He didn't dare to show his smug face anymore. However, his allies couldn't insult nor smear him since the person in front was too much for them to bear.

Fighting the old man, even with the combination of all eight of them, their chances of winning were actually high. However, killing him was a different matter. The damage that the old man could do far surpassed the gains. None of them would want to lose a limb or more during the fight. Not to mention the tricks hiding behind that smile that could prove to be brutal.

The profusing sweat on the sect leaders' forehead made the old master shook his head. He knew his senior was strong, but he didn't know to what extent. He could only take a rough guess by the expressions of the opponent in front. 

"W-We—"

His eyes immediately opened wide as his pupils shrunken. A gentle wind whispered his hair before a hand patted his shoulder. He took a big gulp as his adam's apple moved up and down. Just darting his glance alone felt like a heavy mountain. 

The old master shook his head with closed eyes before opening them again as he thought (outclassed... the eight of them couldn't even keep up with him, the man who peaked in our school... The Avalanche Fist, Jin Haga!).

"Don't push me too far, you know what happened to your beloved students when you push my daughter that far... Trust me, you don't want to know where she got it from."

The old patriarch froze in fear as well as his seven allies before Jin let out a smile and let his grip go.

"Hahaha, oops, looks like I broke your shoulder pad there, but don't worry, Nistan had a lot of money... or beads... or whatever you want to call it."

The old man laughed before putting his hands behind his back and turned around. The absolute degree of stupidity was turning oneself against the enemy, however, in this case, he was allowed to be stupid with that strength that made the alliance covered in a cold sweat.

The sect leaders were looking at each other in the hope for an answer before all of them darted their glance against the back of the old patriarch. He gritted his teeth with his clenched fist, he refused to give up a golden chance but the cracked collar bones of his sent him a warning.

"We... retreat."

With a bitter face, he muttered that word before holding his broken delt. 

"Emperor Jin!"

The old patriarch called out his name before the latter raised one of his eyebrows and turned around. He chuckled before waving his hand in denial, "I'm not an emperor anymore hahaha."

"Will you enter the battle of inheritance?"

The question immediately made all the onlookers clenched their hearts in anticipation. They paused whatever they were doing. There was not a single sound produced, not even the wind of nature. They were all waiting for the words coming out of his mouth. Emperor Jin, the man that stopped and an impending war with just words.

"Hmm.... well the old man never liked me anyway, hahaha!"

The old man laid out his words before he descended down under the bewildered onlookers' eyes. Landing with both of his feet he looked around before the giant salamander jumped and humped on his back.

"Fusya!"

"Oi... oi..."

The old man couldn't believe his royal image immediately shattered by the giant lizard that used to deliver forbidden drugs.

"Alright, old Jin, it's time to follow older brother, he got stolen by a woman... AGAIN. Honestly, she shook her head."

Tuey slowly pinched her forehead before the old man squinted his eyes against the girl with fluffy ears.

"You know... I used to heard that you are the shy type of a girl."

Tuey suddenly had her cheeks turning a hue of red. Her action had been influenced greatly by the young man that saved her fate, that even she didn't notice the change without someone pointing it out. 

Meanwhile, Madoka saw her older sister left just like that. She left with quite a mark in the sky too. Though her raven was still a hatchling compared to her grand falcon, the only thing keeping her from catching up with her was time. She darted her glance walking toward spiralling-eyes Ayumu whom she left for her older sister earlier.

"Heave Ho, Heave ho."

She cutely marched toward her best friend before squatting down with both of her knees. She lightly pushed Ayumu's cheek with her index finger with a call, "Oi.... oi..."

"Huh?"

To the people's disbelief, she actually opened her eyes wide in an instant. She immediately felt a sting in her head before she growled, "Ouch, ah... that stings."

Rubbing the back of her head she noticed that she was sleeping on top of a sharp rock. Her eyes immediately turned sharp before she glared at Madoka.

"Ah..." muttered Madoka before she switched personality with Madoku.

"Oi that's not fa— Ow ow ow ow!"

Ayumu pressed her head between her hands as she twisted her wrist in a drilling motion. 

"Stop it! My brain is my precious thing! I need it to chase older sister!"

Ayumu was slightly pissed as she gritted his teeth with a twitched lips. "If you are so smart, why would you let me rest on top of a pointy rock!"

Whilst the two conversed with each other. Sophia watched the armies, the sects, and the school leader started leaving under the announcement of the old patriarch. There was no meaning to stay and fight if their own leader won't join in.

"Lady Sophia, it's time for our departure, we will be in your care for the time being."

Sophia raised her eyebrows before she darted her glance from the sky against the woman with purple hair in front. There was a slight hint of haste behind those eyes of hers. She could feel the headache before the problem even occur (Handsome Thief, I hope you stop stealing woman's heart... for your sake).

"Yes, I'm sure you and the rest are eager, the departure will be set shortly. Please wait patiently, in the meantime, you can... uh...." Sophia glanced around and noticed that the city was nothing more than a wasteland, a post-apocalypse setting. He left nothing but dust and rubbles to play with. No food, no drinks, only the people left was standing there. There would be a lot of reformation, rebuilding, costs, reimbursement, et cetera. 

"Well... since all of the facilities are currently... on a day off, please wait patiently. The Center City had their own delicacy."

Sophia smiled wryly before she walked past her. She could have a rough guess of what she was feeling right now and she didn't want to deal with it. She instead approaching the old man who was supposed to be an emperor but becoming a recent driver.

"Uncle, welcome back!"

"Oh? Oh! My niece, Sophia, you've grown so much, just like Garuda's Daughter."

"Yeah, well, I take it that you are done with exploring the world?"

"Hmm... the most interesting things happen in the last journey though, I've met that young man in a place you wouldn't believe!"

"Fusya!"

The giant lizard licked Jin's face without consideration. Sophia's mouth was slightly twitching before a voice interrupted their attention.

"Senior, I wish that we would have some time to discuss the old days. However, it looks like that you have a family to be troubled with, hahaha! So long!"

The old master immediately grabbed Tusak's unsuspecting collar and flew North. 

"M-Master? We are leaving just like that?"

"Yeah, things are about to get heavy, prepare yourself, Nistan would never give up that easily. Especially with Kaiju's horrible death."

"A storm is approaching huh..."

"A storm with a taste of tornado and seasoning of a tsunami if I'm allowed to joke hahaha! Anyway, recuperate first before you are joining in!"

"W-Wait, I'm joining in?!"

"Everyone will inevitably join in. That crazy family is too strong and big for its own good."

The old master's eyes turned serious with his words before with a gale, they've gone into tiny dots against the horizon.
