I'll Surpass The MC-Novel

Chapter 520 Role Reversal

?"Hmm…? This should be safe enough." Virala muttered as he infiltrated a house situated in a city in the Northern Lake. Four people were living there—a father, a mother, an older brother, and a younger sister.

The siblings were very young. In terms of age, the father was younger than Virala. Upon observing that, he appeared before them in his Mystic Ewworm form, startling the family.

Spirit Weapon—Golden Giant!

This was the tool developed at the end of his tail by consuming the refined minerals forming the Golden Giant's stomach, ones enriched with the effect being unleashed in the stomach. As his tail could become it, through his Secondary Body Stage 1 partial transformation of Tool, Virala could wield it as his Spirit Weapon.

A fist-sized stamp hovered beside him and stamped upon the forehead of the man of the houseful, causing him to scream in response as all the information in his mind manifested tangibly in the air beside him.

Virala condensed a cluster of Spirit Slips and threw them into the tangible information, watching them absorb all the information. And once they became full, they exploded, dissipating as a mild wave of Prana.

"Don't try to escape." Virala's Mystic Ewworm elongated in length and coiled around the remaining three. His tail moved forth and formed the same stamp as his Spirit Weapon, touching the woman of the household's forehead.

All information in her mindspace flowed out and condensed into tangible clusters of information. Virala stored them in his Spirit Slip and watched as due to the increasing information, the cluster of unstable Spirit Slips shattered, destroying all the information in them.

This was just an easy way to get rid of all the unwanted information. Virala only wanted a puppet family to take care of Ruvva until he obtains the Attribute and returns.

An hour later, the family of four was in a daze, extracted of all information from their mindspace. Virala then put a Spirit Slip cluster in the mouths of each, watching them swallow it. Once the Spirit Slips shattered, the information in them naturally flowed into their mindspace.

The eyes of the man shot open as he devotedly approached Ruvva and carried her. The woman of the house took action promptly and began to breastfeed a crying Ruvva, patient until the latter had her fill and fell asleep.

'They have enough food to last a few days. That's enough.' Virala thought as he made his exit, 'The wisest way would be to obtain the Attribute before the Boar King begins to target it. Thankfully, many things are happening here that need his attention.'

A few minutes after he had left, an entrance formed on the floor as Gannala peeked out stealthily. She stared at Ruvva and let out a grin. With a wave of her hand, the family of four fell unconscious, targeted by a powerful presence beyond what they could endure.

Virala had selected the weakest family possible, since destroying their minds and making them take care of Ruvva would be the fastest and the simplest to execute. As a result, Gannala could easily subdue them through her presence alone.

"You'll be calling me the big sister in the future." Gannala said as she picked up Ruvva, controlling the momentary disgust that formed on her face, "You're not a Mammoth Clansman. That's a pity. But no worries,"

"I'll raise you as one." She retreated into the floor and closed the entrance to the tunnel, speaking upon meeting up with Raaha, "Chief, I've secured the inheritor of the Violet Mystic Path."

"Good work," Raaha was all smiles as he approached Ruvva, "I can clearly feel her presence of a Free Human. She's extremely special even among Free Humans."

"It's a bit of a pity." Vhalla muttered from the side, "Virala became a Free Human. I would have continued to support his actions had he remained a Mammoth Clansman."

"I have Virala in custody." Gannala nodded, her expression gradually turning dark as she spoke, "Since his Free Human body slept with the Boar King's wife, that's the perfect reason to set the Boar King on him. The Free Human Virala will be killed by the Boar King."

"Please don't," Gannala said with a tone of caution upon guessing Vhalla's intentions to deal with the Free Human Virala herself, "We don't have a proper idea of his abilities. It's too risky to deal with him otherwise. He gave up a Mystic Grade version of the Mammoth Ancestor's power for this. So, it's bound to be damn dangerous."

"Chief!" The Mammoth Clansman with the power of a Zinger beside Raaha shouted in alarm, "Resha and Grehha are fighting. Grehha…he…"

"Grehha is protecting the Boar King's children!"

"Leave them be." Raaha waved his hand, "Both Resha and Grehha know what they're doing. Since both of them are right, let them duke it out."

He then let out a command, "Be ready underground the Varahan Mansion. If either Resha or Grehha gets killed, be ready to reclaim the Treasures from their corpses."

Resha had the Minor Treasure of Spectral Eyes and the Major Treasure of Cure while Grehha had the Minor Treasure of Corporeal Mixer. All three were extremely important to the Mammoth Clan. Spectral Eyes and Corporeal Mixture were peak Minor Treasures in the Mammoth Clan's possession.

As for the Major Treasure of Cure, it needn't be said. That was a Major Treasure, and one that gave the wielded the power of External Inertial Gravity, transforming their Nature into Perfect Inertial Gravity.

All were core powers of the Mammoth Clan, their foundation for countless eras forward. Hence, in the likelihood of the deaths of Resha and Grehha, they need to have backup plans to reclaim the three Treasures.

"Don't do anything else," Raaha said and stared at Gannala to gain confirmation from the latter that his decision was correct.

"They are prepared to deal with the consequences of their actions, no matter what it might be." Gannala said and pointed at Blola, "And even if they fail, we have him to revive them."

"Can I…object it?" Blola said with a trembling voice, "I don't think I can physically or mentally endure reviving Resha."

"You can revive him easily once you reach the 3-Life Stage." Gannala stared at Blola and patted him on the shoulder, "I'll help you work hard and beat up the Transcendent Eater's mind further."

"We're in no hurry to revive Resha." Her eyes turned cold, "He needs to understand things at stake here."

As the Mammoth Clansmen moved into a tunnel two hundred metres below the Varahan Mansion, the battle above was heating up fiercely.

"Resha, just listen to me for a damn second!" Grehha shouted as he hurriedly condensed a wall of bone before Barla and the rest to tank an attack from the Raid Team. He hurriedly enveloped the group of six Wean Tribesmen in an Empyrean Incubator to pull them away, watching his bone constructs get sliced up easily.

The Raid Team had made preparations to counter not only Yarsha Zahara but also the Boar King. Hence, they were immensely powerful, beyond what the experience-lacking Grehha could endure.

"Do you…truly wish to kill my child, Resha?" Yarsha Zahara had been running across the place, grabbing all the Comets and Satellites to tank the Raid Team, only to watch Resha hinder her actions.

All along, he was targeting her vicinity, preventing her from approaching her children. And as he was only launching rocks from the ground, she couldn't use her Nature to absorb them and retaliate.

"They are already affected by Yennda's disease." Grehha shouted, "The Boar King would have to beg for the Cooter Clan's assistance. And even with their assistance, it'll take a decade or two to fully cure his children."

"That's more than enough time to target them. We'll have plenty of chances to deal with them while they're in the Cooter Clan's custody." Grehha roared in frustration, "I'm just asking you to avoid harming them until one of us obtains the Attribute."

'Neither of them is an ally. But at least until the Attribute shows itself, Grehha is on my side.' Yarsha Zahara thought as she launched all the Satellites from her Minor Treasure of Lunchbox, intending to attach them as protective shields to her children, only to see high-speed projectiles shred them apart.

"Resha! Why?" Her gaze was red as she glared at Resha, "If you're that angry, just kill me!" ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ ɴo(v)elFɪre.ɴet

"I can't," Resha said, "I care about you."

"Then show some of it to my children!" She shouted, "They're MY CHILDREN, dammit!"

"Not my problem," Resha continued to create opportunities for the Raid Team to target the Wean Tribe.

'Since you don't dare harm me, I'll use it against you!' Yarsha Zahara activated her Prime Skill of Prana Flash to rapidly approach Resha. A kite-shaped Spirit Weapon hovered before her, intending to absorb Resha's gravitational attack.

Without that, he wouldn't be able to thwart her approach. Her spontaneous decision was perfect. Unfortunately for her, Resha's goal was different from the start.

"Who said…I wanted to buy time until the Fourth Major Disaster." Resha muttered as his eyes glowed a hint of red.

Major Treasure: Cure—External Inertial Gravity!

The gravitational flux slammed into Yarsha Zahara, stunning her as she wasn't able to absorb it. Her Nature only worked on Natures and not Major Treasures which functioned beyond the existing laws of Sumatra.

And unlike before when he unleashed External Inertial Gravity, Resha was purely harnessing the power of his Major Treasure of Cure.

"Stop!" She shouted in shock as lava burst out of the ground, a residue from Orakha's attack that Resha maintained until now. Under the twisting effects of gravity, it swirled into a cocoon around Yarsha Zahara and trapped her within, solidifying in a matter of seconds.

"I have compressed enough air there. It might feel suffocating, but there's enough for you to breathe for a couple of days." Resha then unleashed another pulse of gravity to send Grehha flying away for hundreds of metres, causing the latter to slam into dozens of buildings before coming to a stop.

"Heup!" He grunted as he lifted a boulder and hurled it toward Grehha, "Sit there for a moment."

'He's arrived!' Resha grinned upon sensing that the Boar King was now close enough to observe the happening at the Varahan Mansion, 'I've wasted enough time. Now, I'll give you a taste of what I experienced, Brangara.'

'Is that something Inala had done?' He was stunned for a moment upon hearing dozens of baby Empyrean Tusk cries. But as it had already happened twice, he attributed it to another of Inala's plans, 'So, he too has been thinking of stalling the Boar King. That mindset wouldn't work. We need to actively hunt him down!'

Boom!

Destroying his surroundings as he sped towards the Brimgan Empire, the Boar King took another leap, observing the Varahan Mansion through his powerful sight, observing two individuals hover in the air. "Yaha! Hara!"

"…Dad…help!" Yaha cried out in despair as blood spurted out of her eyes. She barely made out the figure of her father over the horizon as her world became dyed red.

"NO! NOO! NOOO!" The Boar King hollered in despair as his youngest daughters were crushed into pulp. And then, like broken dolls, they fell to the ground, devoid of life.

Causing a dull splat.
