677 Evure God Clan
SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!
Lith showed no mercy and went on a killing spree, cutting people as if they were no more than grass.
There were a thousand people in the crowd with a mix of many strong immortals.
He hasn't encountered any strong immortal yet and the ones dying by his blade were either mortals or someone below Saint Rank.
As he continued to kill, far from him, the two pairs of eyes that were watching slowly began to take form and manifested into normal humanoid shapes.
"That kid…"
"There's no doubting it. He is the one."
The two people conversed.
The man with red eyes had long black hair and the man with gray eyes had blue hair. Both also had similar long white beards, indicating they were old.
"We must call him before he kills everyone." The man with gray eyes said.
"Yes. Although I would love to see him display more of his bloodline skills, it would only end up harming the rest of our descendants."
Saying so, the man cast a spell and a red magic circle extended out from the ground and shot towards Lith.
Lith, who was in the midst of killing, had no chance of avoiding the incoming magic circle.
Once hit, he vanished from the battleground and found himself standing in a dimly lit room.
"Hmm?" Lith was confused and looked around.
"Child…" A voice called Lith and he turned around.
There were two old men walking towards him.
Lith put up his guard and was ready for a flight or fight situation if it were to arise.
The man with gray eyes gestured to him to drop his guard. "There is no threat, child."
The man with red eyes however had his brows knitted and didn't indulge in conversation.
He walked close to Lith but maintained a certain distance lest Lith did something stupid and killed himself.
Looking at him from all directions, the man was greatly surprised and asked, "you… no, I mean, my child… How is your bloodline so strong? Whose descendant are you?"
The men didn't run around in circles and asked Lith right away.

The old men sighed at Lith's caution.
"We don't intend to harm you, child. There's no good that would come from it. Our bloodline is coursing through your veins… you're our descendant." The man with gray eyes said.
The one with red eyes analyzed Lith further and said, "from the looks of it, you aren't a Human and your bloodline is so strong, you seem like an immediate successor. You can't be Hamza's descendant so that means you're related to me."
The man walked closer to Lith. He then held his hands and asked, "tell me, my child… What is your name?"
Lith looked at him with a neutral look, but suspicion still visible on his face.
The old men had not done anything to him and were talking sweetly. With the way they had made him arrive here without him knowing indicated that they were strong.
Meaning, killing himself and resurrecting outside was the only option Lith had as fighting wasn't viable.
Since he would die anyway, Lith thought he might as well go with the flow.
He took a deep breath and answered, "my name is Lith Evure."
"Okay. Lith Ev— EVURE!?!" The man was shocked and jumped in fright.
The old man called Hamza beside him was startled as well.
"What did you say!? Aegis, did I hear it correctly!?" Hamza asked.
"Y-y-you… repeat it again!" Aegis tried to calm himself down and went to Lith again, asking for his name.
Since the old men seemed startled and didn't kill him on the spot after knowing his name, Lith felt it wouldn't be a problem to answer them again.
"Lith Evure."
"OH SHIT!" Aegis exclaimed and punched the wall beside him.
Hamza was petrified and stood still like a statue after hearing the name.
The two old men really had an exaggerated reaction and Lith wondered why they were being so dramatic.
However, not even a few seconds later, both of them started crying.
"Ahhhhhh…. I can't believe Hamza… our efforts were not in vain…" Aegis said as tears trickled down his face.
Hamza's condition was the same and nodding his head, he said, "I am so glad. I am so so so so SOOOO GLAD! Our death wasn't in vain!"
Aegis and Hamza cried for a good few minutes while hugging each other and finally, wiping his tears, Aegis turned to Lith and asked with a bright smile,
"Is your mother… Lilith?"
Lith's eyes widened in shock. How did these guys know!?
Looking at his shock, Aegis laughed and patted his shoulder. He had the answer he needed. "So she is. Don't worry, we are not here to harm you. Do you wanna know who we are and how we know this?"
Lith couldn't help but nod his head.
Aegis smiled and ruffled Lith's hair. "First tell me, is your mother alive?"
"Yes." Lith answered flatly.
Aegis closed his eyes and took a deep breath. Hamza did the same.
"Our efforts were indeed not in vain." Both said simultaneously.
Opening his eyes, a tear dropped from his eyes and ruffling Lith's hair again, Aegis said with a smile, "Lith… I am your grand uncle."
"Huh?" Lith was greatly confused.
"Yes, you heard it right. I am your mother's uncle, your grand uncle Aegis."
"…" Lith was too shocked to say anything. This was the first time he was hearing that he had some relative other than his mother or sister.
"So you're Evure too?" Lith asked.
Aegis nodded his head. "I am Aegis Evure, your grandmother's brother."
This sudden information was too shocking for Lith to handle. His mind was still processing the things.
Aegis didn't know about this and he continued, "haaah… I so wanna see that little girl I died for. I wonder how she's doing. Lith, do you know anything about your family and what your background is?"
Lith was snapped out of his thoughts by Aegis. He looked at him and shook his head.
Aegis chuckled. "Well, that's a given. Your mother was separated from her mother when she was just three years old and couldn't even speak or understand things. Don't worry, grand uncle will tell you everything."
"Before that, Hamza, keep a watch on those people. Even though they have almost negligible amounts of our bloodline, they are still our descendants. Don't let them be killed needlessly."
"Okay." Hamza nodded.
Aegis nodded back and turned to Lith. "So…"
Evure.
This was a big name in the entire planetary system they were in.
It belonged to the mightest force of the system — the Evure God Clan.
Evure God Clan was the only one to not have just one, two, three, or four Legendary Ranks, but a whopping fifty-seven!
This was their entire top echelon and no other clan could even come close to them.
Lith was shocked once again hearing that. He raised his hand as he had a question and stopped Aegis from speaking.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Yes?"
"What's Legendary Rank?" Lith asked.
Aegis seemed confused. "Did your mother not tell you?"
Lith shook his head.
Lith nodded.
"Right. Just like you have a Half Saint Rank, a transition state from mortal to immortal, you have "Hmm… Well, I am 100% sure that she has knowledge of this since we gave it to her. But then, why didn't she tell you?" Aegis thought out loud.
"In any case, it doesn't matter. This information won't hurt you. Okay so, do you know about Supreme Ranks?"
Lith nodded.
"Right. Just like you have a Half Saint Rank, a transition state from mortal to immortal, you have Supreme Rank — the Demigod state."
Lith raised his eyebrows in surprise. He wasn't too shocked knowing this since he had figured out long before that there should be such a rank.
"And as you can guess, above the Demigod realm is the God realm — the Legendary Rank."
"I see." Lith digested this fact pretty easily.
Aegis then smiled. "I don't know if there's anything above this realm, but Legendary Rank is the final state one could be in. You'd become a true God and there won't be any force in the world that could stop you."
Lith nodded.
"Your mother has reached this level, if I am not wrong. Your bloodline reeks of Legendary. Had your mother not ascended yet and you had your grandmother's Legendary bloodline, I would've felt your bloodline to have weakened slightly."
"As the generation goes on, the bloodline thins out and the descendants fighting out there, they don't contain even 0.001% of our blood. However, that's because many thousands of years have passed and they are what is remaining of me and Hamza."
Aegis pointed at the people fighting in the grassland.
"I understand."
"Yes. You have a Legendary bloodline with no dilution. It's as pure as it could get. I am proud of Lilith. That little girl has achieved such a feat all on her own."
"Sigh… how I wished I were alive and could see her and protect her." Aegis's face turned sad again.
Lith was wondering about this thing ever since they mentioned it. He couldn't help but ask, "you're dead?"
"Yes."
"How?" Lith couldn't understand how a God got killed.
Aegis flashed a sad smile.
"The Evure God Clan elders killed us."
