Dragon Master: The SSS-Ranked School Belle Asked Me To Contract Her-Chapter 144: Killing Intent

On Veer’s question, Rock pumped his fist and said, "Nothing, Boss. I work best with my fists,"

"I’ll give him an Artefact that boosts stamina regeneration then," Aurora said, as she searched in her storage ring before taking out a pair of small golden earrings in the shape of a fish.

She gave it to Rock and said, "It’s a good one, actually, so it’ll help you fight longer."

"Thanks... Boss?" Rock’s voice trailed off, as he wondered how he should address her.

"Just Aurora is fine," Aurora waved her hand. "Keep it well, though. It’s an important Artefact I stole from the Balcan Clan."

"Why the hell did you do that?" Veer asked.

"Their Younger Master tried to court me, so I needed something in return," Aurora shrugged. "They weren’t willing to give anything, so I just stole a few things."

"Goodness! This is the Aurora I like," Elara laughed at that and said.

Veer also chuckled and said, "Since we all have our weapons, you can give them to others when we find them. And I’m guessing you don’t have any Spells or anything?"

"I’m sorry about that. I only took Marksman-related skills with me," Aurora said, as she scratched her red cheeks.

"Hmm? Well, why can’t V master them then?" Elara blinked as she pointed at Veer. "The main point of him being a Battle Mage is that he can use every other class’s skills and abilities."

"You have a point," Aurora nodded and then took out a jade stone from her Storage ring. It was pure purple in colour and darkness shimmered from it.

"Here. It’s an F-Tier technique named [Quick Draw]. It will increase your attack speed by 15% for 6 seconds with one minute cool-down," Aurora smiled. "And this will also help you in normal fights."

Veer thanked her and took the jade stone from her. He then pressed it against his head and sent his Mana Sense in it. Instantly, he felt the information about it pouring inside his mind.

He didn’t quite understand it, but it wasn’t needed. As long as he had a rough understanding of it, he would be able to use it.

Though, instead of trying it out, he began to discuss things with his group. They would soon be teleported out and would have to fight, so it was best to have some time to discuss things.

They also had a nice meal once more, as they knew it would be hard to get a good meal once they started their journey to the central Island.

The burden of responsibilities was heavy on their shoulders, but they were ignoring it by being in each other’s presence. They trusted each other and had firm belief that they would be able to pull this off.

By the time they were finished, the countdown of two hours was almost over. As they sat in their room, waiting for Ancestor Feng to teleport them out, a wooden ball rolled inside their room.

Following it were a few kids with Aethryms’ features. They were small, half the size of Veer. They stopped at the entrance and looked at the group with their big eyes.

Then, one of them came forward and asked, "Can we take the ball?"

"Sure, it’s your ball," Veer smiled and gave the ball back.

Catching the ball, the kid looked at it and then asked, "Big brother, are you here to take us outside?"

"Huh!?" Veer was stumped.

"I have heard stories from Elders, they said there is a wide open sky past the ceiling and a red ball like this is hanging there," the kid said, making Veer turn silent.

He sighed and said, trying not to show his emotions on his face, "Of course, it’s all true and you will all see it someday. Just wait, okay?"

"Thank you, Big brother," the kid smiled and then left with others.

Veer couldn’t bring himself to look at them so he kept his head lowered. He didn’t want to see those hopeful eyes, as he didn’t want to burden his heart more.

But knowing that those kids could turn into horrendous monsters, he knew which fate was worse for them. He sighed yet again, thinking, ’Is there really no other way?’

"What happened?" Elara asked.

"Nothing," Veer shook his head, but then remembered something so he asked, "Can’t your flames fight that corruption?"

"They can’t."

Everyone jumped from their seats as Ancestor Feng materialized at the corner of their room. He looked at Elara and said, "Her GodFire is too weak to deal with the generational Corruption. At best, she can delay it for a while, and even that, the area she can affect will be very small. So, just save your efforts and let them rest in peace. That’s the best for them."

Veer clenched his fist, but then slowly loosened up. He nodded and said, "Fine! Then, teleport us out. I want to kill all those Bastards."

Aurora and Elara turned towards Veer, shocked at the killing intent he was radiating. They knew he didn’t like killing, so the times they had seen him emitting his killing intent were a few.

But this time, the killing intent surpassed anything he had emitted before. It was as if he had gone mad and only wanted blood. But looking in those dark eyes, they saw absolute calmness that couldn’t be disturbed by anything.

He was in control and had taken the initiative to kill by his own will. They shivered looking into them, the abyss-like eyes drawing them in.

However, soon a grin formed on their faces as they thought, ’RIP to everyone.’

Even Ancestor Feng was surprised at his killing intent as he said, "You really have that nasty bloodline, huh. Don’t let it devour you, though I doubt it will happen. Your mind... you’re too calm for that."

He shook his head and said, "You all Ainsworth are always weird."

Only Rock was a little confused on the situation, but he didn’t really care. All he knew was that his Boss was angry and wanted to kill.

He would just assist him on that. That was his goal.

"Alright, be ready for the teleportation. I’ll teleport you out of the Tomb so you can make your plans from there."
