Death... and me

Chapter 3055: Objective

3055 Objective

Several strong auras began to appear one after another. The various young male Demon Beasts looked at Yuan with murderous intents. "Did this piece of trash call us nobodies?"

"Hahaha! I've never seen someone that bold before. Let me check just how you will destroy me."

"Hmph! Stand aside! This Stage Six trash is mine. I will eat him whole, not leaving a single bone behind."

Yuan looked at Rean. Before, everyone thought him just to be trash. Now, his status has changed into public enemy number one. 'Why did you do that?!'

Rean faintly smiled. 'What are you talking about? You were the one who told me that.'

'I didn't say that at all! You are lying!' Yuan complained back, feeling despair. Rean shrugged. 'How could I be lying? I signed the Soul Binding Contract. Oh! I see what is happening here. Roan knocked you out, didn't he? Perhaps he hit your head too hard. That's why you don't remember.'

'This...' Yuan wanted to retort, but the Soul Binding Contract was absolute. 'Did... Did I truly say that?' Yuan thought hard, scanning his memories, trying to find any hint that he said such words to Rean before.

Tana also looked at Yuan, feeling conflicted. She liked him, but not in that way. "Yuan... You should have told me that from the start."

Yuan didn't know what to say. Yet, Rean's Spiritual Sense Message didn't stop there. 'What are you still hesitating? What is done is done! Everyone now knows that you also want Tana for yourself. Even worse, they know that you live with her, so they all think you have an advantage they don't. If you don't step up now, when will you? Do you truly like her? Or was all just talk? Don't worry, I'm here to help.'

Yuan was taken aback. Indeed, there was no way he could go back now. No one, even Tana, would believe him since Rean signed that contract. "F-Fine! Yes, Tana, I love you. I always did. Even before gaining sentience, I already felt attached to you more than any other member of my race. I know you better than anyone else. That's why I always put the utmost effort into my training. That's how I got so close to Stage Seven, even though I'm just a Horned Cloud Shark with a weak bloodline. Since we came to this, I might as well announce that I'm going to try to earn your hand."

Tana's eyes opened wide. Yuan was always so quiet and gentle. It was the first time she saw him acting with such determination. Of course, that wasn't enough to change her view of him.

As everyone focused on Yuan, Rean faintly smiled, and a Spiritual Message went in another direction, reaching Tana's father. Drefin was quite angry that that was the reason for Yuan to bring Rean to the Sea Demon Palace. However, when he heard Rean's Spiritual Message, his eyes narrowed. 'Brat, you are playing with fire here. After living so long in the Spiritual Canyon, it seems like you are unaware of the power of experts like me.'

Rean apologized. 'I'm sorry, sir. But Yuan's determination is real, as you can see. Don't worry, I'm aware that he simply can't compare with the others. They are all at Stage Seven and Eight, some are even younger than Yuan on top of that. However, you have to admit this is a great method to finally convince your daughter to accept a mate, right? I don't know much about the outside world. But even I can tell that Yuan has absolutely no chance against these young males gathered in this room.'

'Hehe...' Drefin didn't dislike the idea. 'Perhaps it isn't too bad. Well done, brat. You gained a new lease of life. Had it not been for this idea of yours, I would have killed you before this meeting was over.'

Finally, as the tension in the room increased, Drefin spoke. "Enough!"

All the young male demon beasts, Yuan, and Tana, stopped and turned back to the Palace Leader. "Yuan, my daughter took you under her wing many years ago. To be honest, I can at least commend you for reaching Stage Six and gaining sentience. Horned Cloud Sharks rarely go past Stage Three or Four, after all. However, that is that, and this is this. You have offended every single strong bloodline of our Saramina Sea, so you must pay the price. Yuan, I sentence you to death. Someone, just kill him already!"

Yuan was terrified, and he barely had time to speak when the various young demon beasts 'he' offended came at him. He gritted his teeth, changed into his Real form, and prepared to do one last struggle in his life.

However...

*Zush!*

Tana suddenly transformed back into her Golal Shark Form and immediately blocked everyone, exploding with all the Spiritual Energy she could muster. "Anyone who touches him will die!"

The demon beasts gritted their teeth. Even if Tana is the daughter of the Palace Master, they are still proud Demon Beasts. How could they just sit down and do nothing? She might be stronger than them, but she definitely couldn't fight them all at once.

*Roar!*

Yuan didn't know why Tana protected him. "What are you doing? Get out of the way! This is my problem!"

*Bang!*

Yet, Tana turned around and smashed Yuan to the ground, breaking a few bones in the process. "You just shut up! I was the one responsible for you, so how can I just let you die. We will have a veryyyy long conversation when this is over."

She quickly turned around after that and faced all the male Demon beasts. A shadow of the Charybdis appeared about her body, her thin bloodline activating. A Divine Demon Beast Bloodline was still impressive. Just that alone increased the pressure on all those attacking her.

However, just as the two sides were about to clash...

*Boom!*

An explosion of Spiritual Energy happened between Tana and the male demon beasts, forcing both sides apart. "Who dares attack my daughter?" Drefin spoke with a cold voice.

Everyone couldn't help but look at Drefin. Wasn't this just too much? You were the one who asked to get rid of Yuan.

Drefin couldn't care less, though. Demon Beasts always preferred to do as they pleased, regardless of anyone else's feelings. Besides, he achieved his objective. My poor Yuan...
