The Matriarch Chapter 87 Retribution
Asron kept his stern composure, firmly standing there in the entrance to the citadel’s garden with just a stick and a chest plate as his only armor.His face turned sour seeing the princess approaching, alone again without her maids. The female was keen to run to him, her arms quickly wrapping around him.“When will they allow me to return to my village?”Was the first thing he asked. The worry, his homesickness, along with missing the touch and voice of his wife.Those things were taking a toll on him and because of all that, he was starting to lose his patience for her approaches.It was the reason he could not show any kind of interest to the female’s advancement. No matter how much she touched and teased him. He had enough of it after having stayed there for so long.“Oh, my hero. You have only been here for half a year. We still need time if we wish to make this work.”Deshar cooed with her fingers, continuing to play with his chest, picking on the locks of his armor to open it.
The Matriarch Chapter 88 Mystery of the attack
“You can’t go in there. You know how father feels about you.”The princess remained by his side, pulling her dress up to run so she could stay beside him, since each step that he’d take was equivalent to three of her own.“We cannot waste anymore time, else we will get attacked again.”He was certain that the chaos that was the work of no other than the little one. Proof of that would be the many roots and trees that had grown all over the castle.And recalling how the beasts stop when it saw him, it meant that they were trying to rescue him. Though he could not understand why it would suddenly retreat without so much as leaving a message.Besides that, the way the creatures threw their gaze at him made him feel uncomfortable. It haunted his thoughts that he could no longer remain still, sensing that something was wrong.“Halt, you cannot…”The guards were quick to block his path by crossing their spears, so that he will not move in any further. But that prove worthless when he shoved
The Matriarch Chapter 89 A clear indication
“This isn’t the time to be doing this! The kingdom needs you. Have you seen those things?”Deshar was wailing, sobbing as she kept grabbing hold of him, making him stop from putting on his armor. Yet the warrior did not listen and just proceeded to put on his helmet.Asron has had enough of waiting and staying there. With the king currently missing in action, he took that as a chance to get out of the castle for a while, without rousing the royals.“I need to find out what is going on? And I won’t be able to do that if I am here.”He didn’t want to divulge anything to them, scared of risking the safety of his people and the little one.Besides that, he wanted to visit his village and check to see how everyone was doing, along with finding out if it was truly Chris who attacked the kingdom.“But you can’t leave. You cannot just abandon me.”Once again, the female pleaded, kneeling as she grabbed hold of the male’s leg. Her tears continued to stream down her eyes.There was something in
The Matriarch Chapter 90 Picking the prey
“My lord, the beasts continue with their siege. We don’t know how long our defenses will last any longer.”Meric repeatedly bowed down to his liege, pleading with no ounce of dignity left.The creatures had been attacking non-stop, day and night, like there was no end to them. The soldiers, though, were all strong, were giving in from over fatigued.“No one can get in or out of the region, sire.”Kerruf informs as they had been trying to send help from their allies, yet none of the scouts could make it through the swarm of monsters.“Our granaries are almost depleted and the people are becoming restless.”Pontus voices out their other concern as food has become scarce in the entire capital. His left eye twitch whenever he spoke, as it seems the wound there had opened.People were rallying in front of the castle, while soldiers’ rations were being limited to keep their supply afloat.These problems now rest on the Arlan’s shoulders, because the advisers have come to an agreement to app
The Matriarch Chapter 91 Tainted and fallen
When Hucar came to his senses, he could see that he was inside some kind of building. Gaze still blurry, he squeezes his eyes to get a better view of things. It jolted him awake at the sight of the place he was in.The walls were made of what looked like veiny skin, roots surrounded them, it formed a dome shape ceiling that was the same as the cathedrals, but erected with pillars of giant bones.In the middle of it all, he spotted what seemed to be an enormous oval seed, red as blood, hanging at the center. It had an opening which showed a being within it, covered in shadow that was looking at him.It was then that he noticed there were other of the same object, attached to each side of the walls.“Where am I?”He says sternly. It was the only thing he could do. As he hanged in place, they stretched out and bonded his arms and legs on a trunk.The figure did not answer, only tilting its head to observe him.He could feel it observing him, staring at every bit of his whole body.“Are y

“We need to travel to the southern forest if we wish to get Hucar back.”If this would be the same person who he had known, then he was certain he’d retreat to that place. It was the best bet that they had, considering that it was the only area he was familiar with, and felt safe.“Are you out of your mind, or is this part of your plan to take over the capital?”The idea did not bode well for Kerruf, as it was. They still considered Asron as a threat to the throne, and with someone from his village attacking right now. It only meant that their worries were for real.“If we leave, the castle will be undefended.”On a part of the hall sat Pontus, brushing on his blade. His eyes kept twitching, his color pale. As he mumbled about something to himself, yet none could understand what it was.“Then let me go to him. I’m sure I could reason out with little one.”In truth, he wanted to find out what was causing all of this. This was the thing that he was avoiding. That was why he surrendered
The Matriarch Chapter 93 A growing suspicion
The two friends were walking in the hallway. They forced them out of the council because they were causing them to argue about their options.As of now, the group was arguing about what to do, as they debated Asron and Hemlock took that as a chance to speak with each other.They haven’t had the chance to chat these past few months because they still considered him as a prisoner until the king got taken away.“I do not know what happened to little one, but don’t you think the others are acting odd? They definitely keeping something that we are not aware of.”It was the first thing that the grand wizard wanted to identify. With his friend there, he hoped the fellow could shed some light on it, being the adoptive father and all.“What I want to find out right now is why He’s doing all this. He is not the kind to act in this manner.”It caused the warrior’s face to crumple, frowning as he massages the middle of his nose before letting out a deep sigh. He has been thinking of the same thin
The Matriarch Chapter 94 A dreaded sign
Asron couldn’t keep his face straight while listening to Lerold. He was the one who relayed the discussion and thoughts of the council to them.It seems the said group had decided on a unanimous decision rage war. Not thinking of the consequences that came along with it.They stood in front of the door to the room, as he wanted to reason with them again, but the royal guards remained between them.“So, you see. The prince has followed through with his father’s plan. They are calling fort all the armies of the kingdom to fight on this impending menace to our land.”With a wide smirk on his face, Pontus relayed the plans that they had constructed. Having all of them gathering there made them confident of their victory.The drogan army had been one of the most formidable on the continent.Even during the olden times, the other race feared them. If they were as advance as the empire, they could have conquered the lands, but alas, that was something that they lack.Their kind never dwelt i

Prologue An impending doom
Within the darkness, on a floating platform made of trees, vines, and krad carcasses, was Chris, sitting on a throne of spikes and bent trunk, along with the wriggling doctor. The roots of the fauna continued to grab hold of the now silent machinery, as it too remained helpless in the void.“We can breathe! Fascinating.”Steinz chuckled, as they were both able to remain alive, even within the emptiness of the space. A thing which was impossible. The chill prevailed, together with the silence, but it did not bother both of them, being protected by the makeshift vessel.“Let’s see you enjoy it when you get bored with the place.”Chris grumbles, sighing as he narrowed his gaze onto the infernal device. The object may have stopped, but he was certain its power remained.“I am positive we can find a way to kill boredom in someway.”The old geezer let out another cackle, enjoying his weightlessness, swimming within the nothingness like a serpentine fish. He used his webs as an anchor, makin
Chapter 231 The matriarchs power
The skies began opening up, tornadoes appeared increasingly. It started wreaking havoc, along with the continued earthquakes.Chris witnessed it all, watching how the land was breaking because of the machine. He took in a deep breath, feeling the drudge in his chest, contemplating on his plan if it will work.He’d been starting there for an hour now, and all this time, he was having doubts because of the fear which was nudging inside of him.He was so far in his thoughts that he hardly notice the portal opening nearby. Out came Raynald, a healed up Oliver, and the others.All of them stunned to see him just standing there, unmoved by all the chaos, looking into the nothingness with lifeless eyes.“Matriarch, everything all right?”It was the sergeant who asked, being the only one bold enough to approach and check up on him.That wake him from his dreamlike state, sensing those familiar energies. He smiles, having those warm presence surrounding him.Them being there somehow jolted his
Chapter 230 The first
Chris stared above, watching that beautiful large planet in the sky. He smiles, unable to believe that they are going to collide with such a gorgeous thing.He turns his gaze to the pyramid, humming non-stop. Spike roots rot around it, barely touching the area. The golems which tried to go near the site all crumbled.Once again, he fires a shot. The beam deflects, ricocheting on the nearby tree.He clicks his tongue in frustration. The machine had created its own barrier. He could only find out after getting pushed back when he approached it.“Fascinating, isn’t it? My life’s work.”The gurgling voice states.Chris’s eyes rolled, huffing in irritation before turning to the now crawling geezer.The old man’s head popped out of the body of a large beetle larvae, web like mucus continued to flow out of him, three hands twitching with excitement.Even in his new form, the fellow remained pompous of his job, as it showed in how he gaze at the mechanism.“Yes, I would have commended you for
Chapter 229 Merciful or Ruthless
After an hour of fighting, general Gently’s men started retreating, disappearing within the covers of the mist. The man himself withdrew into the veil of that thick, grayish cloud.The doctor’s lackeys cheered in triumph, having push back their enemy who tried to destroy their weapon. All of them letting out laughs, because even the monsters that were charging in had vanished.Chris watch as the group celebrated their victory and after a thorough observation, he confirmed his theory about them.Once they became complacent enough, he makes his move, stepping out of the guise of the fog calmly.“I knew you were still alive. Doctor Howard Steinz.”He states, narrowing his sights at the man who stood in the middle of them all.The geezer’s smile faded, frowning upon seeing him walk unfazed in front of all those men.The crowd was quick to gather, blocking themselves in defense of the elderly fellow.Those who had a barrier ability created a gigantic dome, protecting both the machine and t
Chapter 228 Decisive Battle
Above them, the cloud ridden sky sparked and roared, as the unrivaled beings clashed with each other.Behind them, booms of cannons and rattling of machine guns continued, and in front, debris would fall off from the top, while flashes of different colored lights would appear, together with the sounds of explosions.Chris remained still, staring at the two individuals flying in the air while cooking up a plan inside his head.“Matriarch, you think it was wise to use him?”It was Finny, fidgeting from the pressure in the atmosphere.Both superpowers kept releasing an immense trace of energy, reaching down below.It continued to make them sense the overpowering presence, causing the unbearable sensation of staying there, since they still got that fear of the danger being close by.“Zero can handle himself.”He mutters the name they gave him, confident that the being is strong enough to take on his opponent.The only trouble they had was the stray beam falling down, blowing up a portion
Chapter 227 Special weapon
Chris narrowed his eyes, feeling every bit of his body trembled in anticipation. His adrenaline was trashing about, his hearts continued to pump uncontrollably fast.The amount of aura the man was releasing was as he had expected, inciting a higher excitement in him.A grin formed inside his mask, unable to hide the sheer joy he was experiencing from relief.“Get him out of here.”He orders, not removing his eyes on the guy.From having witnessed the battle with Oliver unfold a moment ago, he was now used to his speed, so he realized how much effort he needed to exert to stop him.Though he stood straight, his fingers were twitching, alert to take out his weapon if the fellow tried to move from his place.A portal opened beside the wounded youngster, letting out Harold, Raynald, Finny, and Marco. All four were wearing masks, hiding their identity from the guy.The double S class stayed in a steady battle pose, weary of beginning an attack after that. Especially because his wound conti
Chapter 226 To be the strongest
The force that Oliver released blasted away all five mercenaries.The others caught the effects of his sudden surge, because of the wind blowing from him from the pressure.The double S class, Carl, who grinned lasciviously while looking down on the events as it unfolded, also mesmerized by the dazzling display.Oliver’s armor completely changed. It now glistened with a blinding white light, the design on each piece that he wore became more intricate.“What did he do?”Nikolai, the serpentine user, was gritting his teeth, trying to keep himself steady.The pressure being thrown at them made it difficult to move. It’s weight pushing them down to the ground.When everything settled, they all sensed an impending gap in their levels, just by looking at the youth.Oliver can feel the power surging through every vein in his body, increasing all his senses.It was as if it turned him invincible at the moment, having an overflowing amount of energy, along with becoming so light on his feet.W
Chapter 225 A decisive gamble
Oliver’s heart raced, each time someone turns his way, his blood rushing as he continued moving in the mist's guise. His every motion stayed silent, quick, and fluid.He pauses when he reaches the summit, as the clearing no longer provided any kind of protection. It was where the opening yet did not have any area to hide.He takes a few huffs of breath, shutting his eyes to muster his courage, readying himself for what he is about to do.Once done, he did not hesitate to take a step forward, having put all his mind into it. In seconds, he dashes about five meters into the clearing, but his momentum was not enough to reach the gap.“It’s the sniffer!”One soldier got a glimpse of him, gaining the attention of the others. All those that were in reserve promptly rush to the site.But he had already broken through the force field, slamming his shield right into it without a problem.He uses the sudden pause as a leverage to shift his movement, turning to his side to head towards the pyram
Chapter 224 A single man's risk
Flames, flashes of light, and debris mixed into the mist. There was barely nothing to see there because of it.Screams of terror, despair, and anger filled the air, along with the explosions and shots now and then.Deep within the middle of it all, Oliver was pulling his father to the safety of a nearby mound that he saw. Away from all the beams, bullets, and other stuff that were flying around.“Come on, dad.”He urges, as his old man could no longer move, groaning with each motion because of the wound on his legs.They froze in place, hearing a loud clicking sound behind. Instinctively, he let out a shield, blocking a claw in the nick of time.He winced, receiving the brunt and weight of the force, his bones cracking, forcing him to bend his knee to weaken its pressure.Huge mandibles began munching on his defense, attacking to break through it, while its scythe claws pulled at him. All he could do was tug at it, drawing its attention to hide his father from those large, dark, insec
