Rebirth of the Nameless Immortal God

Gin and Aki stopped, their nerves on end. But rage burned in their hearts. Masako was someone they had both grown up with since their youth, the three of them had always been the triplet geniuses of their generation. Yet, she had died right in front of them!

"Are you mad?" Dyon calmly walked toward the two kitsune, his hands clasped behind his back. "Are your hearts burning with rage? Anger? Sorrow? Do you want to tear me limb from limb? Eat my flesh and drink my blood?"

Gin and Aki's eyes reddened, but they didn't speak, instead gritting their teeth in silence.

"I wonder, when you thought it was so easy to marry my wife, to make her your concubine, then your maid. When you thought to ruin her life and turn her into your puppet, making use of your backing, did you think about what kind of backing she had?

"Did you think about the possibility of retaliation, the possibility of revenge? The possibility of you losing something you cared about instead of just taking things as you pleased?

"Today I'm going to kill you. Not only am I going to kill you, I'm going to kill anyone who dares to interfere. And when I'm done, I'm going to wipe your Void Clan out of existence and make those esteemed elders you thought were your backers kneel and the feet of my wife."

The world trembled under Dyon's words. They were filled with such confidence that none of them dared to think of doubting him.

Aki grit his teeth before he turned toward the geniuses. "Friends, my Void clan's has an irreconcilable hatred with this man and his wife.

"Firstly, his wife used underhanded means to somehow gain our Void Clan's prized faith seed. You all understand the importance and taboo surrounding the faith seed of clan, do you not? As members of the Void clan, we had an obligation to investigate. This is all we wanted to do, open a dialogue between our clan and the Snow clan.

"At the end of it all, to compromise and no longer pursue the matter, my Void Clan and Alexandria's Snow clan reached an agreement to allow a marriage alliance between our clans. I guarantee to you all, on my honor as a martial warrior, she did not have a husband at the time this was decided.

"However, Alexandria cursed her ancestors and disrespected her elders, spitting in the face of their arrangements and running off to spread her legs this for unknown man, slapping my Void Clan in the face.

"You tell me, is this not foul? Is this not out of bounds? Do I not have the right to fight for the honor of my clan?"

The geniuses nodded. They all knew exactly how important faith seeds were to clans. If their own clan faith seed fell in the hands of another, the mere fact they didn't kill her and take the faith seed by force was already enough of a concession. For Alexandria to ignore this kindness, they would be angry as well.

Dyon listened to this with an eerie calm in his eyes, his anger had boiled over to the point where he no longer expressed it in normal ways. The thumping of a heart filled with rage was slowly growing louder…. It wasn't that he didn't want to attack, but that he had already used a trick to kill one of them, he needed to be meticulous with his next, or he would suffer a loss. But, this didn't mean that he wasn't thinking of all the ways he'd make Aki pay for his words.

"Friends, help me seek justice for my clan. I won't ask you to help for free. This man is known for his prowess in his secondary profession, it is guaranteed that he has a lot of wealth on him. I guarantee that I won't touch his spatial ring, you all can split it amongst yourselves as you see fit."

The eyes of the geniuses lit up with greed. They had been dissatisfied with Dyon proclaiming that he was 6th comet level expert. He was too arrogant! How could they know that Dyon had only said it aloud because his cultivation was sealed? To them, he said it aloud on purpose to slap their faces.

On top of that, some of the more astute geniuses recognized the silver plaque Dyon used for his attacks. Everyone knew that the more powerful an array, the more of a treasure an array plate needed to be to house said array. Those silver plaques, each and every one of them, were grandmaster level materials! Their price combined was astronomical!

Amory and Cullen looked at each other, both thinking the same thing. "I want his mask." They both spoke at the same time.

Aki smiled inwardly while maintaining his outward appearance of seeking justice. "Like I said, all of his possessions can be split amongst yourselves as you see fit. I won't interfere at all."

"If you want me to help." The fatso yawned, clearly too lazy for all of this. "I want your Counsel badge. I heard you eat for free in Central City as a Counsel member. I want to live that life."

Aki nearly coughed up blood looking at Chanzui's lazy gaze. But, he grit his teeth and nodded anyway.

"Good, good." Chanzui clapped happily.

The man-woman looked at Dyon. "If you apologize and give me some of your wealth, I won't mind taking a step back and not fighting at all."

Dyon's head slowly turned toward the sturdily built woman, his eyes as calm as the surface of a lake. "I don't think any of you heard what I said. I said that I'd kill anyone who dared to interfere. If you step forward, you've signed your own death warrant."

The man-woman's face twisted in anger. "It's clear that you don't know what's good for you!"

Even if some people made fun of her appearance behind her back, and some of the bolder ones did so to her face, no one had ever dared to disregard her so easily. Regardless of her looks, she was still an Empress, still the young mistress of the Amazonian Clan, and still a central piece of the younger generation of a quadrant ranked 17th, Princess Diana.

Her spatial ring flashed, causing a blazing red bow to appear, spanning more than two meters in length.

Almost as if her action was a signal, the other geniuses began to move, pulling out their own respective weapons while remaining cautious.

Some of those who knew they would be nothing more than canon fodder decided not to participate, instead much more willing to record the proceedings. At least that way, they would make up for not being able to take part in the spoils. It was certain that the Sapientia News Network would pay an arm and a leg for a story surrounding so many geniuses fighting. Especially since there had already been a major death!

Masako was only a Queen level character, but just how many Kings could one expect to be on the saint floors? At most, a few thousand among the billions. Better yet, there might be an even more tragic death to come soon. Although they didn't know what title Dyon held, it couldn't be low, right?

"Don't worry about his teleportation," Aki called out, looking at Dyon with disdain. "I wasn't prepared before, but now I've locked down the immediate space."

Hearing these words, a major worry of the geniuses disappeared. With the space locked down, Dyon's effectiveness would take a massive hit. Unfortunately, they wouldn't get too long to bask in this comfort because Dyon had decided to attack first.

His arms raised into the air, orchestrating the movement of the silver plaques. And then, his assault began.

Spear after spear flew outward, bombarding the geniuses and forcing them into defensive positions.

Diana sneered. "I've got your cover!" Brilliant, flaming red armor covered her body as she pulled back on her bow. Energies, as though guided by her fingers, began to swirl to life, following the path of her pull and appearing in the form of an arrow. "First form, [Meteor Rain]!"

Diana's arm cocked back, raising the bow into the skies and unleashing hundreds of translucent arrows of energy.

The arrows seemed to have a mind of their own, separating into concentrated streams of about a dozen and slamming into Dyon's spears.
