Chapter-73
(A/N-The King's personality is similar to when he fought Netero. I am writing this chapter from a detached perspective, I tried my best.)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
(The King POV)
Humans...such ignorant creatures, even in the presence of a superior being, they can't overcome their basic instinct to fight, be it physically or verbally.
Even though they were such weak creatures, their collective intelligence is not to be underestimated.
After all, my creator is also a human though by their standards, barely. He believes that because he created me, it gives him the right to command me, to use me as his sword and shield against those who oppose him.
I was created with superior power, as the harbinger of a New Era.
The first of [Chimera Ants Species]!
Their King!
My species, according to my creator is to be regarded as superior beings to the current dominant species known as humans.
For me, humans are both a source of food and also creatures with great wisdom. As The King, the leader of my race, I must learn of my strengths and weaknesses.
My strengths? Well, my body has very high natural-resistance to magic, a natural [Interference Area], limitless strength and something humans call as psions, the thing that fuels their spells.
As for my weaknesses? My only weakness is my creator; he is the only person who can create more of my species. [Chimera Ants Species] couldn't reproduce thus I had to depend on him to create more superior beings.
Fortunately, as a superior being, I was evolving every second!
I was becoming stronger and gaining wisdom with each passing second!
It was only a matter of time now, soon I would rid myself of my only weakness!
The King shoulders the future of the entire [Chimera Ants Species], I can't allow any weakness of mine to exist, only to be exploited by my enemies.
I am the Culmination of everything Humankind hopes to be!
The embodiment of perfection!
My mere existence is a threat to Humankind; these humans establish their supremacy over all other species. If anything that can potentially harm them appears, they will exterminate it.
They are just a bunch of filthy in-secure creatures.
"Dr Eriskiel, you are a wanted criminal. You dare disrupt the meeting of 10-Masters Clan and even threaten to kill us using this abomination! Guards!" (Random Magician)
I looked towards the human who was approaching me, the sword within his hands glowed green, I could feel the particles vibrating within his sword.
Is this what humans call "Magic"?
I simply flicked my tail towards the ignorant creature who raised his sword to block my tail, unfortunately, his pitiful strength wasn't nearly enough to even affect my attack.
I easily separated his head from his body, causing blood to splatter all around the place as his body fell on the ground with a thud, unmoving and dead.
I willed my tail near my face and removed the blood from my stinger using my hand.
I proceed to taste the blood on my hand.
*Spits*
"Bitter..." (The King)
I raised my head and looked towards the humans, spotting varying reactions on their faces.
"W-What have-e you c-created! This-s creature-re eats humans!?" (Random Magician)
Of course, I don't see a reason not to. Humans are filled with nutrients and are easy to digest, not to mention they are available in bulk quantity.
"H-How ca-can you e-eat him!? H-He is a li-living being!" (Random Magician)
"Do you humans ever listen to the cries of mercy coming from the pigs and cows you slaughter?" (The King)
"T-This!..." (Random Magician)
Such hypocritical beings! And they regard themselves as apex creatures!
How laughable!
The planet is dying, many of the species have gone extinct and the greed of human didn't know any bounds. It is time someone cut them down before they become the reason for the destruction of the planet.
Humans are no better than animals…no They're far worse!

(Erik POV)
Things aren't looking good, not good at all.
I sincerely doubt that this crazy doctor has full control of something of this calibre.
I need to be careful, I don't want to expose my true power yet.
If the situation becomes even direr.
I will retreat with Elder Retsu, Minoru and Mayumi. Katsuto can handle himself, not to mention he would not leave his father to die.
"Y-You monster! Die!...." (Random Magician)
*Boom*
*Bam*
*Badam*
I turned towards the source of the sound, spotting a dozen of magicians attacking the creature with A-rank spells.
All kinds of magic were being used against the abomination, faces with such fearsome beings, none dared to hold back.
They all bombarded The King with spells and techniques from all sides.
Each and everyone within this room was a talented magician who was the pride and joy of their respective clans.
Unfortunately...
*Smoke clears*
He walks out of the torrent of spells without so much as a scratch of his body.
His natural [Magic-Resistance] is outrageous!
Perhaps only Katsuto's [Space-Magic] and my [Time-Magic] can harm him. I don't see any other magic working on him.
Seems like he is about to go offensive, the muscles around his legs tightened as he suddenly disappears from his position.
Reappearing near a magician, he easily rips the skull from the magician's body before swinging his tail towards the other magician standing close to him, his stinger dissects the poor man in two halves.
I gotta say this, he's fast!
"Ahh!...."
"Help! Someone stop this abomination!.."
"Please save us!...."
I simply stood watching beside Elder Retsu who looked like he was about to enter the fray, himself.
I motioned him to gather his emotions and think about it.
"There is nothing you can do Elder Retsu, he is fast, you wouldn't even be able to approach him without being torn to shreds first." (Erik)
"It's easy for you to say, Mr.Saltzman. As the Head of the Japanese Community, it's my job to defend the magicians when faced with a threat of his level." (Elder Retsu)
"I must protect the future of magicians, the new generation must thrive!" (Elder Retsu)
Instead of replying to his words, I simply stated a fact.
"The New generation is stronger than you think, Elder Retsu...."
As I spoke, a tremendous aura covered the whole conference room.
A thunderous voice resounded throughout the room.
"This is as far as you will go..." (Katsuto)
