The Supreme Satanic System

After explaining that Gregory, their Legion's son, was not safe, Elder John asked with a serious tone, "So, are you going to help him or not?"

None of them responded, but suddenly Bull, the beef-up, swarthy skin guy responded, "Alright, we will take the job to protect him from the shadow."

"Bull!" the man in disguise shouted.

"What-what? Whatever the case, even if you two still wish to stick with the code of conduct of the Spartan Unit, I respect that. But now we are talking about Gregory's son. Cap, who is Gregory to us?" Bull responded with a raspy voice and he continued, "He is our brother and also our leader. So, I'll be there for his son when he is away."

"Oh, fuck you, Bull! You totally steal my thunder and my catchlines." The man in disguise said in a heavy and disappointing tone.

"What? Are you going to agree to the mission?" Bull asked in surprise.

Kyne slapped the back of his head and said, "Idiot! We are ready to take the mission, anyway. But today, you totally make our gentle and kind captain into a scoundrel. Hahaha,"

"Alright! Then I'll leave everything to you three. But….. He's still Gregory and also my Grandson, so don't you interfere in any of his fights. Just intervene if perhaps there comes a time that he is in a desperate life and death situation." Elder John said, instructing patiently.

"Okay, but what about our daily duties here in the city?" The man in disguise asked while giving a meaningful look at him. His question was like, okay, we would go there to save your grandson's ass, but you better take care of our situations here.

"You are dismissed. And don't worry about the things in the city. Even though I'm too old for field trips, this old man still could pull some strings to help with your posts in the city." Elder John said.

"You heard the man. Now, boys, suit up! We are going on a long trip away from home this time." said the man in disguise and walked out of the hall stylishly. And two other oddities, a tall, muscular black man and a pale white scrawny man, followed their captain out.

Elder John pulled out an old wooden box from under his office desk. Opening the box, he took out several pictures of his two sons when they were little and until they became adults. Then he touched a particular picture and said, "Kiddo, where are you now? Your pop misses you a lot these few years. Anyway, your brat is here on the earth, causing a ruckus just the same as you. But, I'll do anything in my power to help him… And he looks a lot like you in both appearance and your strength and attitudes." Then he chuckled as he wiped the tears from his eyes and face.

Los Samaritan City,

It had been three days since Bobby had come to this wonderful picturesque golden city and for some reason, he didn't feel to leave the city yet as he was waiting for the news of his wife Elizabeth and her group's journey to annex the other two olden Families, the Treant Protector of the Elves and then the Fiery Family of the Chimeras.

Last night, he heard through the secret linkage with Lucas Queen, his Second Shadow slave, that they had successfully subdued the Elven Olden family under his band. And they were on their way to the Fiery Family of the Chimeras along with the Elven patriarch. So, Bobby thought he had to stay for a few days in the golden city.

Today, he walked out to the street while enjoying the masses of people doing their own things, shouting, cheering, yelling, etcetera.

Then, three hours later, he reached a strange, old-fashioned region of the city and saw for the first time that this was the only place he could see fewer people walking around.

Suddenly Bobby heard someone calling at him from beside. "Sonny! Do you want to have a match with this old man?"

'Just what the fuck is with this trick!' Bobby screamed in his head as he was absolutely sure no one was behind him when he passed that spot. So, he turned around and saw a hunch-back old man with a chessboard and its pieces, playing by himself while sitting on a seat made of rocks. Everyone would mistake the old man for a homeless old beggar because he wore old and worn-out clothes.

'Hmm, this old man is not so simple. Then let's find out who the hell you are. And I've nothing else to do in this beautiful and tedious city, anyway.' Bobby continued wondering as somehow the positive aura around the old man somehow made him more curious about his identity of the old man.

Hence, with a thought, he activated his Devil's Eyes Ocular technique, scintillating with golden light, and scanning the old man's body with the X-ray vision.

At that moment, the old man grinned at him as if he felt that the youth was observing his body and energy level.

"Are you talking to me, grandpa?" Bobby asked.

"Yes, sonny! Why don't we have a chess match here?" The old stranger asked again, beaming with a friendly smile.

Ding!

[Target Scanning Completed!]

[Species: Human!]

[Bone age: Premise Is Wrong!]

[Energy level: Level 499!]

[Treat Level: 20% treat level to the host.]

[Warning: the host better be on good terms with this target!]

"See! Now, every bug of the earlier System version is already fixed!" Cynthia's scintillated voice chimed in his head.

"Are you sure?" Bobby asked telepathically to confirm it.

"Definitely! Dude, this time, I can vouch for you that after that upgrade, the System has improved more than its previous version." Cynthia responded with a serious tone.

"Then, oh my gosh! Then you're telling me that old gentleman is really at Level 499 for real." Bobby screamed telepathically in his head. After that, one thing came to his mind which was that, if he fought with him then he would be crushed like an ant under that old man's feet.
