Kach was very confident until the City guards came.
He was also holding back a bit. But once they came, he didn’t bother holding back anymore. His divine energy riled up and he slashed at the manager that came at him and it seemed like it is a special move.
Sam looked at the slash in surprise as it cut through the air leaving a black line behind and by the time it reached the manager, the black line spread into darkness.
The surroundings seemed to have dimmed a little. The light at the immediate surroundings of the black line was devoured by it as the dark layer spread.
The darkness then manifested into a sharp sword that followed the sword ray and stabbed at the manager.
The manager looked at the dark sword that came it and felt the death gripping his throat. He could almost see his grim reaper following behind that sword to take his soul away.
He was lost in that daze and was about to die.
Everyone stopped their breaths for a second as they looked at the manager. They all thought he is going to die. Even the other subordinates didn’t attack. The spectators all held their breath in and looked at this with amazement.
They never knew that a person who could perform a move like that, a person who could wield power like that is within this region. And a person who doesn’t even have any fame.
The more Kach revealed his abilities, the more surprise people became about how he begged Ninth young master. With this strength, he could directly fix an appointment with the clan leader of the Sura clan and get this settled.
But he was humble and polite enough to give the Ninth young master so much respect, which he obviously didn’t deserve.
As all of these thoughts passed in everyone’s mind, nobody moved. Except for one person.
*BOOM*
When everyone though that the sword will pierce through the neck of the manager, some external force came out of nowhere and stopped it.
Sam and Kach looked at the city guards who just arrived.
The only person who made a move and didn’t stop in awe after looking at Kach’s attack.
The force destroyed the sword.
Kach held his sword and looked at the city guard.
Ninth young master also came out of his daze and looked at the City guards that came.
“Fucking hell.”
He couldn’t help but curse at his bad luck. The city guard squad that came is the one squad that he wish that didn’t come. Because the squad is under the payroll of a different young master. And both of them happened to hate each other’s guts.
He is sure that any chance of this dispute being resolved peacefully has gone out of the window.
As he thought this, the city guard squad captain yelled out loud.
“HOW DARE YOU CHALLENGE THE AUTHORITY OF SURA CLAN AND ITS YOUNG MASTER? HOW DARE YOU START A FIGHT IN THE CITY. I DEMAND YOU SURRENDER ON THE AUTHORITY OF THE CITY GUARD AND THE SURA CLAN.
OR GET READY TO FACE YOUR DEATH.”
The squad captain’s voice resounded around. The rest of the city guards stood beside him with their hands crossed. They are all looking at the whole scene with amusement.
They are confident and from the looks of it quite powerful. As for how powerful they are, one can judge from the expressions of the people around.
The leader himself is a peak stage expert with divine energy, while the subordinates also seemed to mostly peak stage with some of them being late stage.
Sam thought that peak stage cultivators would be somewhat uncommon even if they are not too rare. But they are way too many. He came across too many people within a few hours.
Kach looked at the City guards coldly. Any trace of humility and respect he had was gone. He is enraged. But even that rage is refined and suppressed. He is cold and calm. Which means he is dangerous.
The battle became intense. Sam watched as the dark sword rays flew everywhere and cut down the opponents one by one. First the small fries were eliminated. The city guards are obviously unable to protect those small time subordinates.
But soon Kach started feeling a bit overwhelmed with all the people ganging up on him. Particularly two opponents with peak stage cultivation and divine energy.
And all the extra subordinates are not exactly pleasant for his eye.
Squad captain and Manager started cooperating to subdue Kach.
But Kach himself is a tough opponent and he started caring less and less with each passing second making him a bit hard to deal with.
“Squad, eight wall prison.” The squad captain spoke all of a sudden and all of the squad members changed their movements. They all ran away from Kach and reached eight specific spots. Some spots are occupied by just one person while others have been occupied by multiple people. But all in all, they gathered in eight points.
They all held their weapons while making some weird handsigns and stabbed them into the ground. Everything happened in a flash while the manager and the squad captain kept Kach busy.
Blade rays formed from the eight points and created walls around a certain area. Within that area, the manager, squad captain and Kach were stuck.
The blade rays moved continuously maintaining the wall as it is. And from it came a blade aura that surrounded Kach and tried to suppress him. Even the air within the formation became sharper and Kach already felt the difference.
The spiritual energy within that area seems to be completely out of control. It seemed like it directly went under the control of the blade aura creating the formation.
When Kach swung his sword, the sword ray didn’t form as densely as before and it definitely didn’t pack the same power.
On the other hand the swords of the manager and the Squad captain became powerful.
“Seems like this guy needs to take out some of his hidden cards, otherwise, things wouldn’t be good.”
Sam muttered to himself and as if he is on cue, Kach stopped his movements. An energy barrier formed around him as he looked at his opponents.
“I didn’t want to use this technique. You brought this up on yourself. You should have just given my sword and I would have already been on my way back home. Why do you need to make this worse than it actually is?”
He spoke out loud looking at the Ninth young master.
His body slowly started blowing with dark energy. He activated Partial dark energy fusion and this dark elemental energy also surrounded the sword.
The sword seemed to have grown in size a bit as the dark elemental energy raged uncontrollably.
“Dark Sword Arts, Wielder of Death.”
He muttered as he swung his sword.
It is just a casual slash, but it contained the power that even made Sam vigilant that far away. The sword ray is manifested out of pure death energy. The surroundings seemed to have been sucked out life.
The rocks on the ground deteriorated into sand, the grass on the side was dead in a second, people in the surroundings felt like their breaths are being taken away from them.
The two opponents of course also felt something on a whole different level. Both of them took out tokens and broke them.
A large energy barrier formed around them and they managed to block it. The barriers are broken completely and they were barely able to stay unscathed.
Kach didn’t stop there though, he lunged forward and started fighting back. He became aggressive, with the black sword. He looked like the death has manifested into human form and started dancing in front everyone.
The two opponents who suppressed him until then were suppressed themselves.
The spectators were glad that they stopped for the show. The city guard squad and the personal security team of a young master are both being dealt with a noname guy who doesn’t have any fame to his name.
They knew that whatever the outcome that day is, this whole thing is going to blow up into a large matter that is going to be talked for a long time. This is going to be a black mark in the history of the clan.
Meanwhile, the news started spreading. People started gathering more and more. Soon it reached another squad that made its way. Ninth young master looked at them and finally heaved a sigh of relief.
A squad that is completely neutral without any influence from any politics. He ran to them and asked for help.
“Captain, the matter is blowing up too much. Too many people have died. Please stop this. You don’t need to arrest that person. Just suppress them first. Make them stop fighting. Please.”
“That cannot be, young master. We need to arrest him. No matter what the reason he started this, we need to arrest him and investigate the matter. I understand that your reputation is at stake here, but rules are rules.
Squad, suppress them all and arrest the person who is causing a ruckus.”
