Undying Warlord

After the women came face to face with the most threatening opponent of the Undying Group, they went silent.

Dilan had no idea what they were thinking about. Thus, he let them organize their thoughts while taking a look if Ariel Silvertale had answered his earlier question on the personal chat.

'She really answered already! Sometimes it feels like she is not busy at all,' He thought with a faint smile as he began to read the message.

[The Hordes of Chaos and Destruction are considered as the Primals of the New Age in most tales because their task is to initiate the new age on the planets where they're ordered to emerge, wreak havoc and start their conquest. The Hordes of Chaos and Destruction awaken a planet faster by summoning stronger monsters, by altering Gates and by creating new Gates on their own!]

Even though Dilan thought that the Hordes of Chaos and Destruction could bring tremendous advantages for the Undying group, or potentially for all humans on Milarn, he was not sure what to think about the given information.

'Should I just annihilate the Hordes of Chaos and Destruction to slow down the awakening of the planet? That way I can make sure that I will stay the strongest and advance faster than everyone else. Furthermore, less people would die if the Primordial Ascension needs more time to be completed…' Dilan thought, just to recall something that caused him to discard this idea immediately.

'I cannot stop the Hordes of Chaos and Destruction all over Milarn. At the most, I could defeat them here, which would cause this beautiful yet rather small continent to progress the slowest in comparison to the other continent where the Hordes would continue with their conquest. It's not really worth killing the Hordes for now even if I were to be strong enough right now,' He added in his mind, feeling slightly frustrated.

The situation was far from easy to handle but Dilan tried to accept everything readily. Instead of worrying too much about the Hordes of Chaos and Destruction, he was more interested in annihilating the people, who had attacked and nearly killed him.

He didn't care about the reason for their attack because that was not something that mattered, at all. The only thing of importance was their strength and how he would fare against them! If they were stronger than him, they would be capable enough to take his life. However, they hadn't been powerful enough to achieve this, which is why it was now his turn to wreak havoc.

There was no need to show them any mercy either. They had more than two weeks to become stronger than before and it would require another three days before he would be ready to fight. His strength would be back at its peak again and the Hyel Destructo Armor Set would have regenerated by then as well.

"I think I've shared enough about myself for the time being. Someone else should talk now. I was always curious as to why the two of you never spoke about or went in search of the rest of your family, either way," Dilan said, trying to sound interested, which failed miserably.

He knew enough about most higher-ups of the Undying Group to gauge that he could trust them. Their past might be an important factor to turn them into who they were right now but that was something Dilan could see in the present.

It was not necessary for him to see their past to understand who they were right now.

Kathrine and Yvonne understood Dilan's intention behind his question. Thus, they started to share bits about their own life. Kathrine talked the most because she had the most memories about their family and so on since Yvonne had always been on bedrest most of the time.

After the sister duo was done sharing about their life, Victoria started to reveal some facts about her life as well. Her lifespan had been the longest but there had often been decades where she didn't do anything special. A long life might be interesting for most but Milarn hadn't been a place to spend over a thousand years while feeling like every single minute or hour was to be used judiciously.

There was never really the need for her to do anything special because she had nearly everything one could wish for. Now the times might have changed and time was an important factor to garner strength but that had not really been of importance to Victoria before.

In the blink of an eye, three days passed in which they talked a lot with each other. Yvonne, Kathrine and Victoria were overjoyed because Dilan had finally shared something about his past.

It might not be a pleasant past but that didn't matter to the three women, who were more relieved about the fact that he had trusted them enough to speak about his past rather than the contents and memories of his past.

Now that the three days were over the women were ready to leave Dilan alone. They were a bit worried that something might happen to him but their worries were groundless. It was not as if Dilan was not capable enough to look after himself. The earlier situation had been a terrifying incident but Dilan now knew what to do if he were to encounter something like before once again; purchase equipment that blocked effects like the paralyzation domain, or become strong enough to overpower such domains!

The women left him inside the crater caused by the humongous meteorite and Dilan's expression changed rapidly.

"I will find and kill them!" He swore to himself as he activated [Switch], which had upgraded to a Tier-1 ★★★★✭✭ ability, to reallocate a total of 150 Units of his Strength and 100 Units of his Health to his Mana.

Afterward, he released all his mana at once to shroud the district-sized meteorite in order to store it inside his storage ring.

"You gave me lots of pain, so you will become the main resource for my Undying Group's blacksmiths!" Dilan declared. He was ready to bring Old Jeff and the other blacksmiths to the meteorite to work on it whenever they could.

He used his horrifyingly high amount of Mana to use more than 100 Units on [Thunder Step], which allowed his Agility stat to reach almost 900 Units.

Afterward, he activated [Master of Gravitation] and he rushed back toward the Sanctum of the Old Vampire Lord to bring the meteorite to his people.

After he reached the base, he ignored all the people around him, looked for Old Jeff, and quickly transferred the meteorite inside his storage device.

"When you're ready to forge weapons and armors using the meteorite's metal, start mass producing them to the best of your capabilities. We need an army fully equipped with high-quality equipment!" Dilan stressed the importance of Jeff's role in their group before he gave Old Jeff a peace sign as he turned into golden particles.

He disappeared and went back to the now empty crater to take a look in the direction where he had found the ten thousand Ascenders before.

"They should be in that direction. With many Tier-1 Ascenders, their base shouldn't be too far away, otherwise, they would have required much longer to come over after the idiots violated their leader's wife and daughter…" He mumbled just to shrug his shoulders and add,

"Let's see where I'll find them!"
