章 216: Leaf Dawn (3)
Reus's other fist suddenly rushed at Klaus's face from the bottom,
'This time definitely! I got him for sure!!!'
Just as Reus was thinking that a grin appeared over Klaus's face and Klaus blocked the fist with his knees
"Now what?"
Klaus asked with a grin over his face, but Reus didn't seemed to be over just yet and Reus replied
"Now... the end..."
As he said that suddenly another sword rushed towards Klaus from Reus's shadows
Reus seemed to have a lot of expectations with this strike but only word came from Klaus's mouth
"Dumb..."
Klaus just moved to a little right with his head and the sword that came from Reus's shadows completely missed Klaus and went up in air
But next moment the sword returned back towards Klaus's head but the match had already been decided till now
Klaus just moved Reus's body above his own body and the next thing that happened was Reus's own shadow sword stopping just barely a few inches behind Reus's own head
The whole shadow sword and Reus was bound tightly by a silvery white chain that seemed to be coming out from a void
Reus had no end to his surprise right now as next moment Klaus looked back at him with shining cold blue eyes and said
"Then have a goodnight!"
Klaus's fist struck Reus's guts and this time Reus had no way to remain conscious again, during this whole duel Reus was beaten like a dog by Klaus despite being the protagonist
Sam and others immediately arrived to Reus and Yumiko shouted at Klaus "You didn't have to be so hard on him Klaus!!!"
'Guess the friendship is really isn't as good as love...'
Klaus thought while looking at raged face of Yumiko, other seemed to be confused over their own thoughts right now
[Lol, the 'Hero' became a 'Villain' 🤣🤣]
Apollo also seemed to be having fun but next moment Klaus also turned to her and a barrier of mana covered Klaus and Reus's party to stop the voices from leaking out and Klaus said
"I can do whatever the heck I want, don't forget the Duke and the one with highest authority over adventurers is still me
In every way, I have the right to bring my best friend on the right path and you should know this better and if you want him to be treated better
Then you should have treated him better ... from the day I left the only thing you have given him is problems...
From taking care of all crimes over Captial at age where he should have enjoyed his life to even dragging him to base of cultists to risk his life, every hecking problem was given to Reus by you and only you
And at that time when 'you' wanted to be righteous and give a little girl justice when Reus was trying to find better way
You decided to intervene and dragged Reus down with you and immensely offended a Count when you yourself don't even have a status of Viscountess to stand there
Have you ever imagined what you were going to do if I couldn't help you there, do you even know how many people I have made enemies of trying to help you all who are basically going around in noble society offending every second one of them
Do you even have an idea that before getting sponsored by even the least major holder the adventure party needs to be ranked in the top 7 and 'Leaf Dawn' isn't even in top 1000
You have no idea of how much trouble I'm going through just to push you all higher just to hear this bullshit of being righteous and man of justice
I'm telling you again don't act righteous if you don't even have any strength to protect yourself, this is me saying this to you as a friend not a lord and
You don't even have a clue of how much he already has over his shoulders, now don't give him the burden of world safety too
That role is mine and only mine! And nobody is going to take that from me!"
Klaus's expression seemed extremely sharp and true, everyone present there felt like the beast inside Klaus had been released
Next Klaus suddenly disappeared in air leaving Reus and others alone there, Sam, Ariana and Anna seemed to still holding their grounds
But Yumiko immediately knelt to ground, tears flowing down from her eyes with immense realisation of her actions till now
"What have I done... All the time, I was the one burdening Reus with my own thoughts... I'm such a nuisance..."
Back at Klaus's mansion
[Host you...]
Klaus was walking towards his office with a expressionless face while Apollo was looking at him with blunt eyes
[You are such a great actor, I never knew!!!]
'I know right!!!'
Suddenly both Klaus and Apollo started beaming with brightness and gave each other a fist bump
[What the heck was that about offending people ahahahahahaha!!! They are afraid of offending you! Haha! And you told them you were having problems by offending others!!!
How can a dragon be afraid of mere rats getting angry over him and in first place who will even dare to get offended hahaha!!!]
Apollo grabbed his stomach tightly laughing like a maniac, Klaus also arrived back to his office and started laughing
"Damn! I think I went too hard there! Hahaha!"
[And-and that one about being Hero!?! Aren't you just telling them to lay down and don't go around causing trouble with your name?]
"Haha! Isn't this better way of saying that!?!"
Klaus also grabbed his stomach while laughing on his sofa, Apollo suddenly took out a mustache and said
[What was that about rules of Guild, you are basically owner of whole adventures guild with more than 50% shares, you can just make new rules!
Ahahahahahaha! Why did you say it in a way that made it feel so wrong!? Hahaha]
"Ah... Ah... Ahahahahahaha.... I can't my stomach hurts... Hahahaha!!!"
Both Klaus and Apollo kept laughing like maniacs, the Klaus's subordinates that passed by the office looked at Klaus's office with weird face
"Is he on drugs now?"
"Weirdo Klaus..."
"He might have finally lost it there!"
The fairies also commented while making their way back to Elena with a lot of snacks over their hands
Finally after few dozen minutes the things calmed down and Klaus and Apollo returned to sanity again and Apollo asked
[But isn't it wrong to just dump all blame to Yumiko?]
Klaus also turned a little serious and said "Yumiko is practically innocent, she was just a plot character designed to trigger plot for Reus, it is just like saying this was her destiny
But with this she will grow a lot so it is not a total loss, all of them will act more mature now and will think a lot before dragging Reus into such matters
Right now the only thing Reus needs to do is grow stronger and unnecessary plots are not needed here
Those guys will also work as walls for Reus to not go around triggering traps for himself too, it is a win win situation
And at that moment I also announced them as my friends, this will practically extinguish their all problems while being here for a year at least and that is enough!"
Klaus looked a lot mature and a man with high insight as he looked far in distance with a golden glow at centre of his eyes
But just as this was going on Klaus suddenly noticed a change over the space and next moment suddenly Seraphim and Lilith walked out of thin space to Klaus's office
"Waah~ Klaus been a while!!! Did you miss me!?"
As always Seraphim seemed to be carefree and immediately went to Klaus and gave him a big hug while rubbing her cheeks at Klaus
It seemed just like a mother rubbing her cheeks with a newborn kid,
'Gosh... Seraph is just too much like mother...'
Klaus just sighed with tired face and next Klaus gaze moved at Lilith who still seemed to be a reluctant standing there
"Still angry here lady?"
Klaus asked with a smile on his face, Lilith looked away acting like a kid, Seraphim went to the window and opened them with bright look on her face
As she did that a cool blow of wind touched Klaus's face and the room suddenly seemed to be much more comfortable and fluffy
Klaus couldn't help but to smile and his mood also seemed to be getting better, Klaus looked at Seraphim and asked
"So what brings you here?"
Seraphim looked at Klaus and said "Don't you feel tired now, it's already been months since you summoned me you know?
It takes a large chunk of mana just to keep me here for just minutes and how are you still alive even after months?"
"That's what I want to ask too, how can anyone just keep the mother of spirits in this world so easily... Are you drinking mana potions as food now?"
Both Lilith and Seraphim looked at Klaus with surprised look on their faces, Klaus looked at them and just replied
"Guess I'm just stronger that your imagination... Anyways answer my question..."
