Chapter 381 Medici
Farid Kingsman had made a deal with the devil to save his skin and the city.
He had long begun to lose confidence that he would be able to outclass Ravan in battle, especially since his battle tales were so legendary.
Hence in a desperate attempt he had contacted the exiled god of the Medici clan to help him win this war and finish off Ravan.
The Medici clan was the third clan to be exiled and branded a ‘ Traitor ‘ by the vampire king Regus Aurelius since he took over the throne. 𝒷𝒹𝓸𝓿𝓁.𝒸ℴ𝓶
For 200 years the vampires of that clan had became wanderers unable to show their heads at any official gatherings until recently the leader of the Medici clan, ‘Rose Medici’ became a tier6 god.
Once he became a god, he tried to reinstate his clan within the Vampire Monarchy, but his bid to re-join was not supported by a single vampire clan leading to failure.
The Medici were a mixed race of vampires and mermaids, they had unstable bloodlust tendencies and had normalised practises such as incest.
Being extremely hard to socialise and extremely disgusting to share culture with, they were outlawed by Regus Aurelius after their failure to abolish incest and child marriage.
Nobody wanted this clan back in the vampire community, however, in his desperation Farid had promised Rose Medici that in return for saving his planet, he would support his bid to re-join the vampire monarchy and open the borders of the Kingsman clan to enter into free trade and culture exchange with the Medici clan.
On the surface this was their only deal, however, deeper down, Farid had signed a system contract vowing that he would listen to any and all instructions of Rose Medici for 3 years after the war, effectively becoming a vassal and a puppet at his Beck and call.
For Rose Medici, this was no big deal at all as for him to deal with an army of tier4 and 3 was like dealing with an army of ants.
Even without the support of the Kingsman soldiers, he alone could effectively wipe the entire army out alone, however, since he needed to be careful of not killing many civilians or Kingsman soldiers, he could not use his most destructive AOE spells and had to express his powers in a moderate fashion.
As he scanned the battlefield, he noticed that the strongest enemy was not even directly participating in a fight, but rather protecting the enemy leader from the shadows as Rose Medici locked eyes with Ravan who was hanging on the side of the mage tower, looking at him as well.
” How impudent of you to directly look at god, FALL! ” Rose said as he flared his aura to forcefully make Max lose his grip and fall.
Max felt the god’s aura around him, as he flared up his own aura as well, trying to combat his will, however, his will shattered like fragile glass in front of the gods power as he felt his grip loosen on the side of the mage tower as he fell down from about the height of a 20 storey building.

( Meanwhile the clone and Asiva )
Asiva was furious when she discovered that two of the five ships were destroyed and tens of thousands of rebel soldiers were dead.
She bravely rallied the remaining soldiers to reinforce those at the front lines, however, she could feel the nervousness and fear amongst the troops who were uncertain about the fight.
The morale of the rebel forces was plunging, and although their hotblooded war preparedness was trumping their fear for now, it was surely not going to last for long.
” Who is the enemy? ” Asiva asked the clone, knowing that he had Max’s ability of [ scan ] as the clone solemnly replied “Tier6”
Asiva felt her scalp tingle at this response, she had never expected any god to involve themselves with the Kingsman clans matters.
As long as it was an outsider, the Kingsman clan would risk punishment from the king Regus Aurelius to bring foreign god’s amidst internal matters, however, if it was not an outsider then it would mean that the higher ups had already decided that the rebels could not be allowed to succeed.
Either way, the outcome of this war had turned extremely grim because of this sudden interference.
” Where is Ravan? ” Asiva asked, as the clone pointed towards Max’s direction and said ” Tell him, I think it’s time to enter Phase Omega, send Anna and Zippo for cover ”
Asiva opened and closed her mouth, not understanding when Max and his clone made a secret code for some secret plan without her knowledge, but understanding that this was not the time for her to be complaining she nodded and took off in the direction the clone had pointed.
The clone on the other hand adjusted his shoulder as he glanced at the direction of the god in the sky, as he let a satisfied grin form on his face.
” It’s time for the universe to be reminded of the true might of the Rajput family….. Shakuni The Terrifying might be dead, but his brother still lives! ” The clone said in a Maniacal voice as he dashed towards the area where the god was.

( Meanwhile Farid Kingsman )
Farid arrived on the battlefield as he brought the two other surviving tier5 powerhouses alongside him, looking down on the enemy’s gathered in sector 11 as he planned on engaging in battle.
There was visible discord between the three tier5 powerhouses as they all shared different viewpoints regarding inviting Medici into their affairs, but after an intense debate they had decided that since he was already here the subsequent matters would be decided after the immediate threat of the rebels was solved.
Although they did not like this arrangement, the two other tier5 warriors had no choice but to follow Farid’s plan for now as the three of them descended in battle together.
