Chapter 405: Haiti and Skoll.
“If you hadn’t stolen the ant queen, we wouldn’t have had to stay there any longer!” Bradly screamed as tears continued to roll down their cheeks.
“You chose to prioritize kills over the life of your teammate, so don’t blame me and deal with the consequence of your stupidity.” Blake said in an annoyed tone, sending Bradly into an uncontrollable rage.
“Fuck you!” Bradly bellowed in rage as he lunged at Blake, but before he could cover half the distance his teammate knocked him out.
If Bradly was allowed to engage Blake, not only would he be the one at fault but it gave Blake the right to do anything to him, and that included ending his life.
Also, heat marks and Berserk mode had been active for a while now so he would not only lose the fight but would most likely die from the adverse effects of Berserk mode.
“The mission is officially over, let’s return to the city.” The 2nd command said with tears in his eyes as he carried the unconscious Bradly and began walking back to the city.
‘You should have at least tried to save them.’ Brian said in the mind link as he watched the members of the Blade’s edge adventurer party weep.
.....
‘Why the fuck will I do that?’ Blake said.
‘If you think about it, we kind of caused her death. We actually have no need for any of the spoils, but we kept taking almost everything causing them to make so many bad decisions.’ Brian said.
‘He has a point.’ Castiel said.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt‘Are you guys kidding me?’ Blake was flabbergasted. ‘Seems both of you have forgotten that not only did they try to exploit us because of our age, but they put us in harm’s way because of their greed.’
‘In case you are not aware, if we were as weak as they thought we would have most likely been dead or gravely injured, but the funny part is that didn’t care.’
‘So I don’t owe them anything, neither do I care if all of them die or not!’ Blake said in a pissed tone.
Brian and Castiel had no reply to Blake’s outburst, causing the journey back to the city to be a long and quiet one.
Once they got back to the city, both groups boarded different carriages back to the adventurer association building.
By the time they made it to the association building, Bradly had woken up ready to give the mission report.
Blake had expected them to give a false report but he was surprised that they reported every single thing that happened. This disappointed Blake because he felt they hadn’t been punished at all.
The fact that they put their lives in danger because of their greed angered Blake. If Bradly had been allowed to fight him, Blake wouldn’t have wasted any time in killing him because he couldn’t stand the thought of working so hard to return to Earth and see his mom, only to end up dying because of the stupidity of greedy idiots.
Since this was a raid mission, Blake and his team were paid in contribution points before moving over to the market section of the association building to sell their spoils.
Once they were all done, the trio decided to call it a day and board a carriage that took them back to the school. The journey was a long and silent one, but once they got back to the castle they went straight to their different room.
“Time to fulfill my promise to Ebony and Ivory.” Blake said as he brought out both Master seal and Ebony and Ivory from his pocket dimension.
Just like before Ebony and Ivory began vibrating and glowing, but this time it was with greater vigor.
“I don’t know how, but I can feel it is excited and wants me to take it closer.” Blake said as he slowly brought both items closer. The more the distance lessened the stronger the force of attraction between both items.
Immediately both items came in contact with each other, a strong force sent Blake flying to his bed as both items began floating.
Thud!
Just as Blake recovered from the surprising hit both items had already fallen to the ground.
“What the fuck just happened?!” Blake asked as he picked up both artifacts.
[Name: Master seal
Quality: Destroyed

Those were the message Blake received when he checked the status of the beast tamer artifact.
“Did it just destroy an Epic tier artifact?!” Blake was both shocked and confused, but he decided to keep calm and check the legendary sword.

“Holy Fuck! That was definitely worth it!” Blake went over the moon the moment he read the abilities.
