Chapter 72: Chapter 72- Branch Families (pt2)
“N-no, do you mean Mia Chandler?” One of the men’s eyes widened.
They had heard of the Chandlers’ collision with other heirs but going so far as to mix poison in a healing potion was beyond belief.
WHOOSH
“How dare they! Lady Alisia trusted them!” Noah’s aura burst, anger visible on his face. Without any delay, he tried to leave the place.
“Stop it, Noah. It’s already over,” Adrian slowly took his seat, understanding that all their hard work had become futile.
They had lost all their heirlooms and even the hope for their rise.
The only thing remaining for them was 35 battleships, which were not working due to a lack of energy.
The Crawfords had the largest amount of battleships in comparison to any branch family, making them a target of internal politics the moment protection on them ended.
Killing was impossible; that’s why cheap methods like cutting off energy supply and destroying raw materials’ sources to manufacture more battleships were common against them.
Once the strongest military on Ardoros, standing behind Alisia Devereaux, was now fallen to nothing.
Among the four major branch families, three were on Alisia’s side, but now that number has decreased to zero.
The Crawfords, once called a major family ten years ago, have slowly lost their rankings and been overtaken by the Chandlers.
Adrian had remained loyal even after everyone else had left Alisia Devereaux’s side, but it seemed they also needed to do something to survive.
Adrian finally commanded what needed to be done to gain support from other heirs, “Send our one battleship to Cha—”
BANG!
“Haa… Haa… Patriarch, our energy has been completely cut off,” a man barged into the hall while gasping for breath, revealing the loss of Ether Energy which, although minimal, they had been receiving until now.
Bam!
Adrian slammed the table, everyone present in the room swiftly standing, anger visible on their faces.
“I was about to offer friendship with them, and those bastards!” Adrian’s anger was directed at the other branch families, who, after consuming an extra amount of energy and secretly selling it to others, causing the overall decrease in the Ether the Crawfords were getting, had now crossed the line by cutting off all power supply.
“Brother! I don’t care about my life, I will kill that bitch,” the woman finally lost all her remaining temper.
They had fallen to this level but never once had they been this weak to be openly looked down upon.
SWISH
“Yes, Brother, today should be the last day for those Chandlers, I don’t care even if I have to die!” One of the middle-aged men suddenly vanished, leaving only an afterimage of himself along with some words.
SWISH SWISH
Without any further delay, all of them losing their temper, followed him too, while the only thing remaining in the room was the blurring images of them.
“I need to gather our people,” the man who had just barged in a moment ago said, his eyes also crimson due to anger.
Following rules, he first informed his superiors, but now, seeing everything with his own eyes, it was an all-out war.

SWOOSH
The moment Alfred opened the metal gates at the topmost part of the Spires, a huge energy force pushed him back.
SCREECH
Increasing force in his feet, he tried to grip the surface, but the recoil still pushed him back while destroying the floor tiles.
thud
His body stopped by a hard surface, causing him to lower his gaze in defeat while adding, “Forgive me, Young Master, it seems after our battle, I lost too much of my energy.”
Ryuk, looking at Alfred and understanding the effect of *Shunya* was still on his body, causing his energy core, which was depleted, to slowly heal, leading to him not being able to withstand the force coming from the huge amber crystal.
Slowly sidestepping and moving towards the Energy Reactors, at least its mechanism made it referred to as such, standing just a small distance away from it.
His body was nullifying energy with it; the recoil of force had less effect on his strength of level 〖EPIC〗, indirectly making him able to close the distance between him and the crystal, but it was still taking all his strength to reach it.
CRACKLE
It seemed like the aura around the crystal was trying to push him back, but it became worse due to stored Ether from the day which was far more concentrated than usual due to being stored in compressed form.
Looking at the huge crystal, it didn’t take Ryuk much time to understand the working principle behind it, being based on an inverter battery.
During the day, it processes the mana into Ether while supplying it simultaneously, but at night, all the remaining processed Ether gets supplied slowly.
Indirectly making it more dangerous since it was now a source of concentrated Ether.
‘Devour it.’ Without hesitation, Ryuk ordered the System to fill the ether inside his energy core.
[INITIATING SYNTHESIZATION]
‘Don’t Synthesize it’
[Host, it can be dangerous due to the vigorous nature of Ether and its far concentration.]
‘Just do what I say,’ Ryuk doesn’t have time to wait for the System to supply a small amount of Ether inside his core while he waits for an hour, moving forward with his next plan, he added, ‘Also, analyze the structure of this thing.’
[TRANSFERRING…]
BOOOOOMM!
A sudden tsunami of Ether burst onto Ryuk’s body, breaking all bounds which had held them in, the heat crossed the limit causing his skin to burn within a moment.
Energy was nullifying on touching his skin, but the heat was far greater, enough to melt even steel, a pungent smell of meat burning filled the air.
“Young Master!” Alfred’s eyes widened, seeing Ryuk’s skin burning at a rapid pace, his clothes were not left out, within a few seconds, they were also burned out, leaving his bare body open for the upcoming barrage of intense heat.
WHOOSH
“Ugh…Young Master,” Alfred tried to close the distance, but due to his own energy being depleted, he couldn’t enter the area near the crystal on which hair-thin lines were began to form.
‘Damn it,’ Ryuk gritted his teeth, the pain shrouding his body was reaching its limit, skin was burning rapidly and the energy seemed to take longer than he anticipated.
SWWWWOOOSHHHHH
Suddenly, the flow started to become intense, causing him to slowly reach his limits, his hand was completely crimson due to the heat it felt at that moment.
[ENERGY REACH THE LIMIT – -> 1 Trillion Units – -> 1 Quadrillion Units ]
DING!
[Rank: 〖EPIC〗 Perfect- -> 〖Legendary〗Imperfect ]
CRACK!
SWISH
A small crack formed on the crystal which widened into half before turning into dust specks, and scattering with a small shockwave around the peak of the tower.
[HEALING INITIATED…..]
Slowly, burned skin on Ryuk’s body started to regenerate, healing at a rapid pace faster than the rate it got destroyed.
[Host, urgent kill points needed for transactions, time limit is half an hour.]
‘…..’ Hearing the notification about the System’s demand for kill points, which was needed to create an illusion in front of 〘 NEXUS GRID 〙.
Ryuk turned his gaze towards the sky where dozens of light streaks were approaching the place he was at, causing a small smile to form on his lips before inquiring System.
‘Well, this much kill points should be enough?”
