Chapter 319 - The Kidnapping Of The Elemental Rulers (Past )
"So I am the last to arrive…" Fanglin murmured as she looked at all eth elemental rulers gathered together in Mariel's palace.
"Well, you were the last person he went to get so of course you will be the last to arrive." Sierra pointed out as Fanglin nodded.
"Guess my work is over. It was nice meeting you all." Kai then said his goodbye as he had a feeling that saying any loner would not be good for his health.
After all, no one would like to stay in a room full of extremely strong women who could kill you at a moment's notice.
"Don't worry, you can go back later on. For now, stay here." Mariel said with a grin as a barrier suddenly appeared in front of Kai's face.
Even though he wasn't a spirit, being in Mariel's realm technically pushed him under her command.
This meant that he would also be affected by her supreme ruler's abilities and would have to obey her orders.
"Fine, I will stay here and listen to your meeting." Kai gave up and sat down on the ground of her throne room.
There was a round table in the middle of the room with seven chairs. But all the elemental rulers were sitting on it so Kai decided to sit on the ground.
"I was about to summon my throne but I guess this works fine as well," Mariel commented as she heard an annoyed tch.
"Can you just tell us why you summoned us here and used this idiot to do that?" Gaia suddenly asked as a vein popped in Kai's forehead.
"Who you calling an idiot"
"I am of course calling you an idiot. There is no other idiot in this room." Gaia replied while rolling her eyes.
"You both sound like a married couple." Kazemi, the spirit of water, calmly commented as both Gaia and Kai turned in her direction.
"No, we are not!" They said at the same time as the others hid their laughter under the pretense of fake cough.
'I should stop acting like this.' Kai then calmed himself down before looking at Mariel.
"Now, will you please tell them about the reason you called me here?" Kai asked as Mariel smiled.
"The reason I called all of you here is because this guy is gonna kidnap us." She replied and pointed her index finger in Kai's direction.
The entire place fell silent
All the elemental rulers turned to look at Kai as they tried to comprehend whether Mariel was joking or not. But judging from her expression, she wasn't kidding.
"This guy? He can't kidnap our guards, much less kidnap us or even one of us for that matter." Sierra suddenly snorted as Kai stood still.
Mariel's eyes were thoroughly looking at his body and he could tell that whatever she was thinking was not good.
"Don't take my words too literally. The world is gonna think that he kidnapped us but in reality, we are going on vacation." Mariel added as the others suddenly looked interested.
"And how is that?" Levina asked while cracking her knuckles as Mariel smiled and explained her plan.
"We will make it look as though he used the power of the spirit of death and life to defeat us and then kidnapped us in order to get our powers too. This will through everyone in a rage and things would get chaotic as they will start looking for us.
For the time being, all the important work will be handled by our right-hand persons and they will keep things in order. But while that's happening, we will be calmly enjoying a holiday. And this will all happen because of him."
"But how will we make everyone believe that?" Xinjeng, the spirit of air asked as Mariel continued o.
"We just need to stage it and under the right conditions, people believe in whatever they see. And since the recent event made him quite famous, this is the perfect opportunity for us. What do you all say?" Mariel asked as all the elemental rulers started thinking about t.
But judging from their dreamy eyes, they had already agreed to her plan. All of them except for Kai.
"I also have a say in this you know." He said as Mariel raised her eyebrows.
"What do you want in return? Money? We have many treasures and things that can make you one of the top ten richest people in the world. Power? We can give you that too. Or do perhaps want our…" Mariel stopped as she placed her boobs on the table.
"Bodies?" She asked with a teasing smile as Kai rolled his eyes.
"As beautiful all of you are, I am not interested in your bodies. I am not ready to do this under any case." Kai shook his head as Mariel sighed.
"You can either do it willingly or we can just knock you out and do it ourselves." She offered as Kai's expression grimed.
He could feel that he couldn't leave the palace using his teleportation. However, he still had one last move under his sleeve.
"Then I guess I can end your stress once and for all." He suddenly said with a smile as Mariel looked surprised.
"And how will you do that?" She raised an eyebrow as Kai raised his right hand.
Black flames ran throughout his arm as he looked forward. His black flames had always been his biggest weapon and he knew that no one can destroy them.
"That's unfair you know. You are on the verge of losing and suddenly take out your ultimate move in an attempt to save yourself. However, it won't work this time." Mariel said with a grin as all the elemental rulers raised their hands.
One by one, crowns started appearing on their heads. All of them called upon the power of their special realms and the spirits living on it which ultimately made the spirits aware of the 'battle' that was happening.
Kai suddenly felt a heaviness in his chest as his black flames started to die down. They soon vanished as he clenched his teeth.
'I will never meddle with strong women again.'
That was all that he could think before he fell on the ground and fell unconscious.
