The Matriarch Chapter 99 Allegiances
“Eldegor, what are you doing here? Aren’t you supposed to be heading straight for the capital?”Asron’s voice was stern the moment they got close.It did not please him that the eastern army was there, considering that they should be somewhere else.It just made things worse for him, knowing they could cause a misunderstanding.Upon seeing the group, the general was wide eyed when he saw them. The fellow turned pale, his mouth agape, moving, but nothing came out of it.“Lord Asron, I didn’t think you’d be here.”He could finally say after a few more moments.The general’s actions just made Asron’s expression turn sour, especially because the guy’s mind seems to wander off somewhere.“You did not answer my question.”He asks once more.He noticed the man’s reaction, so it caused him to wonder what could their militia is doing in a place like that. Far from the main road and days away from their supposed route.“Those monsters, they took our prisoners.”Was all Eldegor could say. His wo
The Matriarch Chapter 100 Arrival
“If anything happens, you know what you have to do.”Those words that Asron let out made his friend turn to him.Among all the individuals that were there, he felt like his long-time companion was the only one that he could trust right now.They were leading the army on their steeds. It had slowed their travel down because they had to make sure the troops weren’t tired out.Thankfully, so far there hasn’t been a single attack since they started their way towards the forest, which made them think that what the royal guards were saying was true about him.“It seems we are rather in a tight spot again, my friend.”It caused Hemlock to chuckle, but his laughter was filled with pain, understanding that they had nobody else to turn to.For the longest time, it had been the same thing after they founded the kingdom, and though they did their best to cooperate, yet things still didn’t work for them.“So, are you now regretting that you became friends with a war hero?”All Asron could do was j
The Matriarch Chapter 101 A beastly welcome
The place could no longer be called a forest, it was a fortress. With empty roads formed of grass, towering trees, looked like buildings, each relayed in a way similar to those in a city.Armored beast of a specific kind wandered every corner, moving in such an ordered fashion that they resembled guards that were patrolling.Each group comprised a certain species.A large bulky fully plated ones would mainly lead them, followed by the light long legged runners, and lastly were the type that either could spit poison or breath flame from their mouths.“This is fascinating. Do you see how organize these creatures are?”Hemlock did not bother to hide his amusement, his eyes glimmering at the wonder that he could not mask his smile.“He’s completely done it this time.”Asron clenched his jaw, displeased by how things had changed.There was hardly any semblance of the forest that he had left and the flora that were there no longer look like anything that they had ever seen in the land.Ther
The Matriarch Chapter 102 A fearsome welcome
The air crackled and metal echoed through the place as the two opposing groups continued to clash. Both of them were using the full extent of their skills and weapons. “Die you scum!” The leader of the assailants screamed aloud as they charged at the three escorts. Of course, the soldiers did not falter and dodge and parried the attacks. The minute he heard the young drogan’s cry, Asron and Hemlock quickly moves to stop them as things were getting serious. He took down all the youngsters that were charging, while the wizard created a barrier around the three warriors that were with them. “That is enough!” Asron’s voice boomed all over the place, causing the fight to end, all except Cortus. The youth continued to struggle, even under his hold. “Traitors! I will kill all of you!” The youngster keep on screaming, hands flailing to reach for any of the people behind him. “What is wrong with you?” Asron scolds, frowning as he the rage in him. But what truly caught him off guard we
The Matriarch Chapter 103 Out of control
“Shouldn’t you be doing something?”Hemlock could now move closer to him, seeing that things had finally subsided within the room because of what had just happened.“I’d like to see where this is going.”Asron kept his eye on Chris and the drogan.They watch him as he took the warrior into a hanging bed, carefully tucking the guy there, treating it as if it was a huge child.“My lord! Help us.”Eldegor pleaded, feeling the tightening of the vines that were holding him.Lerold could barely speak since the plants covered his mouth, while Groshian had remained unconscious and was now encased in a much sturdier root.“How does little one know you?”It was the thought that kept running through Asron’s mind.From what he remembers, Chris had never ventured out of the village unless they visited the capital. And the general hadn’t left the eastern fort until recently.Though things were adding up, a lot of question continued to pile. Such as, who was the mysterious warrior? Why were the bodi
The Matriarch Chapter 104 Repent and reality
For hours, Chris continued to cackle and scream, causing the air to trickle with his power.Red sparks and lightning would appear now and then. All the while the more beasts appeared underneath the earth, like plants sprouting.More creatures marched out of that place than ever before, and from the looks of it. Their numbers can rival that of all the armies of the kingdom combined.During this time, they took the chance to talk with Cushar and the young drogans of the village. In order to find out what had happened.And after a long tale, they were back to watching the human release his fury, with not a single one of them stopping him.Cortus, along with the others, even cheered him on, as they were all filled with rage for the prince and his supporters. They all knew some armies remained to support the royal.“Should we do something? More people will die if this continues.”The grand wizard pleaded, seeing that they were now amassing another army to attack the capital.With a single
The Matriarch Chapter 105 Subsiding
After stopping Chris, everything seems to have calmed down. Though the beasts remained roaming around the area, they were not a problem considering that they followed orders that were given to them.Now that things had subsided, they had to fix all their affairs, starting with dealing with the issues of the villagers and the youth that survive.Gathered every single one that was there, Asron, along with the two wizards, held a meeting outside. There were but a handful of survivors and they were all the young village warriors that went to the eastern fort.“We didn’t think he’d blame himself for all of this. We just thought he was angry at them. None of us notice he was killing himself.”Cortus bit his lip, feeling guilty for instigating the siege against the capital. They’d found out that all of it where the doings of the youngsters of the village.Of course, Chris being out of his mind and mourning the loss of the people, gave what they wanted and provided everything that they needed
The Matriarch Chapter 106 One final truth for Asron
When he got into the room, Chris was still sitting on the bed with the drogan on his lap.He was brushing the warrior’s hair while the guy peacefully slept in a fetal position.The two seemed to be comfortable with each other, as they seem to have a world of their own.“Little one, it seems you’re quite fond of that fellow, aren’t you?”He tried to lower his voice as much as possible in order to not startle him.Even though his mind was racing, filled with so many questions that needed answers.Each step that he took was careful and slow, enough to lessen the distance between them.He’d rather avoid any kind of confrontation right now, considering the situation that they were in.Chris let out a wide smile before looking up at him. Though he had this cheerful look in his eyes, it was watering.“Why wouldn’t I be? He was the only one that I could save.”He says with a cracking voice, his tone trembling as he took in a deep breath, as he stared down on the drogan, before blowing soft ki

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
