Chapter 261 259: Drakarian Anarchy Part 9



After Aron made his intentions clear regarding the Drakar, the group settled down until a proper plan could be formulated.

The current plan Aron had was based on using Greile\'s people to help engage the other Drakar, subduing and then assimilating the groups before finally targeting the olden ones.

For this plan to work though, he needed to wait until the male gray scaled Drakar returned from their hunt and see whether or not Greile would still be the leader after the disaster that took place.

If she failed then he had no choice but to reconsider his options all over again. The uncertainty of the situation left him feeling rather uncomfortable but this was to be expected in Limbo.

To pass the time, Aron settled down under the tree discussing some theories regarding Limbo and its many mysteries. The one Rose especially found intriguing was the one regarding travel between the countless regions of Limbo which were isolated from one another, almost like entirely separate worlds.

"I\'ve been wondering about something since we arrived. You mentioned your mother left Pesia thanks to the ability she gained after evolving, can you clarify on what exactly that is? It\'ll be of great reference in conducting further research in on the subject."

Aron could see the logic in Rose\'s question and also felt that the information would indeed help in researching a proper established way to transverse through Limbo.

"I agree, unfortunately I don\'t know the details regarding that ability. I was hoping to find out for myself once I was passed my sixth evolution. But since we now know Kolieans are also present in this region limbo, we can learn more from them, chances are high my mother is among them."

Rose cast Aron an inquisitive glance when he mentioned the possibility of meeting his mother. She couldn\'t tell exactly what emotion he was feeling behind those cold grey eyes of his so she felt she should just ask.

"You\'ll need to consider the possibility of the Kolieans there being hostile towards us, and even if your mother is present and holds a position of power among them, aren\'t you on bad terms?"

Aron could see the reason to show concern but shook his head lightly at the matter.

"The possibility exists, as for my mother, I plan to"-

Aron paused suddenly and quickly stood up before looking up at the skies to their south east.

"What\'s wrong?"

Rose stood up as well and asked after seeing the serious expression Aron now wore.

"I\'m detecting mana fluctuations in the far distance. For me to be able to sense it from this far means one of two things, either we\'re in the path of a powerful being or a horde of creatures."

Upon hearing his explanation, Rose didn\'t delay in raising her hand and flicking her wrist to summon her scouters.

"Direction?" She quickly asked.

"South east." He answered in a hurried manner as well before turning in the direction of Jagu and Jin.

"Jagu! Jin! Retreat back here now!" He ordered loudly, causing the mother and daughter pair who had been sleeping to wake up in confusion.

Jin and Jagu were quick to rush back to the camp after hearing Aron\'s call, both looking alert and worried.

"What\'s going on?"

Jin arrived first since he was atop a tree not too far away.

"Hopefully nothing, let\'s wait and find out from Rose." Aron didn\'t want to conclude anything yet and so he didn\'t share his thoughts, only a warning.

Jagu soon arrived and posed a similar questioned but was instead answered by Jin who told him to just wait for Rose\'s verdict.

They didn\'t need to wait long for it though as she soon recalled her scouters and turned to face the group, wearing a troubled look.

"See for yourselves." Rose didn\'t say what she saw and instead just brought her scouter closer to everyone and displayed the images on it\'s crystal top.

On it the group saw countless dark scaled Drakar flying through the skies in the far distance, this caused everyone to show looks of concern.

"Maybe they\'re also just flying past like the group before?" Jin suggested but Aron shook his head.

"No. These Drakar possesses a dwelling in the northern part of the mountain range so their hunting route should have been different… wait."

Aron paused and narrowed his eyes at the images to see a better look of the leading figures. One was Greile, who especially stood out among all the dark scaled Drakar and the other was Osar who Aron didn\'t immediately recognize since most Drakar looked the same in his eyes.

Normally it would take a mana signature for him to recognize them individually but just Greile\'s presence was enough to let him know that he was likely the target.

\'If she\'s alive then she hasn\'t revealed my circumstances, no. It\'s entirely possible the olden ones recognized the loopholes behind the runic death seal. Whatever the case, this is a bad development.\'

Aron\'s mind was in a flurry tiring to understand his current predicament and how it came to be. He had many theories but with nothing to provide a solid conclusion, he thought it best to just focus on handling the oncoming threat.

"No, they\'re definitely here for us, or rather me." Aron revealed, countering Jin\'s expression and causing frowns to appear.

"Those numbers, it\'ll hard for us to fight without a strategy." Rose pointed out, showing concern in regards to a confrontation for perhaps the first time.

The Drakar were fast approaching and so Aron opted for the most logical choice.

"That\'s why only I will fight. One of them already knows my scent and can clearly track it through the rain so retreating with me would be pointless and fatal. You go east and find somewhere to hide; I\'ll lead them further north west."

This suggestion surprised many, especially Jagu who spoke up first with unmatched vigor. "You expect me to run while you fight alone? I\'d rather die than have someone sacrifice their life for me."

Rose was the next to agree, although she wasn\'t as loud or emotional as Jagu and just spoke casually. "I didn\'t follow you here so you could die early."

Naturally Evanora also added her own words. "Evanora won\'t Aron, ever."

Before Jin could add on, Aron gave them a reality check. Normally he wouldn\'t mind if individuals thought of him in a positive light but this time it seemed like it was going to be problematic.

"You misunderstand, I\'m simply presenting an option that allows you all to live. As for myself, I\'m confident in surviving both scenarios, if you feel you can do the same then by all means, do so."

His words were cold and blunt but the point was clear, their lives were in danger, not his.

"So, then you have a plan to defeat them all?" Rose asked for surety and Aron nodded without hesitation.

"Not all, I\'m confident in evading pursuit and taking some lives along the way."

Aron answered truthfully and received a nod from Rose. "So be it then, I\'ll have one of scouters nearby at all times in case of anything though."

After saying those words to Aron, she turned to face the rest of the group.

"Let\'s leave, we won\'t be able to keep up with him."

"Will Aron be back?" A concerned Evanora asked with uncertainty and worry on her face.

"Naturally, it\'s the Drakar\'s return home that\'s not a certainty." Rose reassured before leading the way for the rest of group.

Jagu was perhaps the most reluctant but he was smart enough to recognize the threat before him. Now he only wandered how Aron planned to deal with it.
