My World Traveling System: The Harbinger of Death-Chapter 678 - I Am Not Really Who You Think I Am
-----
Frank, Gwendolyn, and Miriam were suddenly assaulted by a large band of dozens of thugs with their monster pets. It seemed odd, but it looked as if they had prepared for this day with a lot of detail and effort, and they wanted Miriam and the dragon she had, Ryujin.
Frank had not realized who they were at first, thinking they were mere thugs, but then he quickly realized they were also part of this underground organization named Black Eye, which had been behind most of the shady stuff happening in the Riverside city, from the monster trafficking to the bullying and even deaths of young trainers in the beginner's forest, and more…
Due to personal reasons, he had not been trying to get involved with these people because Frank wanted this world to go however it wanted, he didn't wanted to be the hero of anybody other than those that were close to him or that he was interested in helping, such as Miriam or Arthurious, but he wasn't going to go out of his way for a "greater good" when he happily preferred to lay low and make money in this world instead of getting too involved with it, like it happened with Terra…
However, things are never like he wanted, and what he had suspected some time ago happened, the thugs of the Black Eye had finally put their eyes on him- or well, not really, but on Miriam, this girl was special, and he knew she had some sort of special soul within her that helped Monster Pets grow stronger faster as they trained with her.
They even had the ability to develop faster, and she was innately amazing at commanding them, knowing every one of their moves right away too… This made her a genius amongst geniuses with a supernatural ability too. Frank began to blame his good luck provoked by having a lot of Fate Attribute Particle which ended making him stumble upon such a powerful child…
And if that wasn't enough, Ryujin was also strong and would bring attention to himself for being so special-looking, such a beautiful and regal dragon baby was wanted by many. Frank knew of its risks, but he also trusted Ryujin to be capable of helping Miriam if she was ever attacked, and he did it pretty well, actually…
But even then, it seems that the Black Eye organization wouldn't let him be, or perhaps, it wouldn't let be of that girl, and now because he was way too invested into Miriam, Frank was not willing to give them up.
"Oh… I see, you're from the Black Eye bastards... I was just letting you slide this entire time but maybe I should just slaughter your entire organization if you had the audacity of coming to assault us personally."
Frank was pissed, he looked angrily at the ones that had dared to assault him and Miriam and his wife, the thugs had all shapes and sizes, but they looked like weaklings with some even weakling monsters, no stronger than Adult-Class with them. How would they be able to beat him to begin with?
But perhaps they really didn't considered him into their plans, and even when they saw him with Miriam alongside Gwendolyn, they thought they wouldn't be able to fight against so many Adult-Class monsters either.
After all, they didn't knew of his true strength, even less of his overwhelmingly overpowered monster pets at his side, such as Ruby, Ginseng, Onyx, Zhulong, and so on…
"Huh? Y-You know about us?!" asked the thug. "T-Tough talk for a loser aristocrat! We researched about you! You're just someone that got disowned and lost everything… your little shop is the only miserably thing left, and some monster pets… And you don't have anything worth noticeable… Maybe you got money and a few monster pets, but you cannot possibly beat dozens."
The thug seemed just as confident as the others in his group, they had indeed researched Frank's entire life, which was modified into the world by the System, who hacked directly into the world's core, this is why it was hard to bring new people and give them new identities, as the system would have to modify history itself to make them "real people" and camouflage them in society.
However, Frank knew this was all a rouse, a fabrication, and couldn't help but laugh at their stupid attempts at trying to see how deep he could be…
"Hah… To think that fabricated past would even show up in real life…" laughed Frank. "I guess it worked very well." fre𝙚𝓌𝒆𝚋noѵel.c𝚘m
"F-Fabricated?" asked the thug. "What do you mean? Don't begin lying! W-We researched!"
"You see… I am not really what you think I am." Said Frank.
"Ungh?!"
The thug suddenly fell over the floor, as he looked at Frank in horror… Frank's Aura emerged, and it resembled an ocean of countless elements converging together!
"W-What…. What are you?!"
Frank smiled back at the thugs as he seemed to enjoy seeing them despair. He had grown more and more tired of people trying to get into his life, especially weaklings that didn't amount to anything.
But realistically speaking, they didn't knew he was such an entity, in this world people could grow stronger, but through their union with monster pets, a man alone would never be able to beat… so many monsters at the same time.
Although Frank could easily show them what he truly was, he decided not to.
"But I won't act personally." Said Frank. "I don't want to bother the world's core with my powers, so I shall channel them into my monster pets… Zhulong, Onyx, come out."
FLAAASH!
From within Frank's shadow, two creatures emerged, two small dragons, one resembled a long serpent covered by golden scales, a serpentine Asian dragon with a long golden mane and golden horns, and then a small European-looking black dragon, pitch black, even his eyes, tongue, and horns were all claw, this was Zhulong and Onyx respectively!
However, the thugs didn't see them as much, they were just baby dragons… 𝘧r𝗲𝑒𝔀𝘦𝙗𝓃oν𝑒l.𝐜𝗼m
Of course, that was about to change.
