System's POV-Chapter 994: Trump Card Versus Trump Cards [Part 1]

Main Residence of the Leventis Family…

"It's been a while since we last saw each other, Callista," Aaron said as he stood on top of his flying mount, the Azure Sky Dragon. "You're as beautiful as the last time I saw you."

"And you're still the same arrogant bastard I know, Aaron," Lady Callista replied. "So why are you here? If you have business with my husband, he's on the Cygni Continent right now.

"Or are you telling me you're here because my husband isn't? I didn't know you're that afraid of meeting him face to face."

The disdain in her tone was very potent, but Aaron just smiled. He believed that Lady Callista's words were merely her desperate attempt to taunt him.

"Today is the last day the Leventis Family will be hailed as a Prestigious Family in Pangea," Aaron said. "It will be wise if you cooperate and allow yourself to be captured. That way, you won't have to get hurt."

Lady Callista scoffed before shifting her attention to Norman, who was calmly listening to the side.

"And what about you, Norman?" Lady Callista asked. "What are you doing here?"

"Aaron and I are of the same mind," Norman answered. "The Leventis Family has been basking in the limelight as of late. You know what they say—the nails that stick out get hammered down.

"As you know, your grandson had thrown dirt into our faces and made the world our enemy. Since that is the case, it is time to remind the world just who we are.

"Your family shall be the example for the fools who dared to look down on us. I'm sure after this incident ends, no one will dare to badmouth our Clans again."

A sneer appeared on the beautiful lady's face because she felt disgusted just by talking to the man before her.

"Well then, enough talk," Aaron said. "Kill everyone, except for that lady. The one who kills the most will get a reward from me!"

The subordinates of the two Monarch Clans cheered and started to attack the barrier protecting the residence of the Leventis Family.

The Elite Guards behind Lady Callista and Michael looked anxious, but they held their ground. They were all loyal to the Leventis Family, who had taken good care of them and their families.

Even if it meant dying today, they would fight to the death and bring with them as many enemies as possible to the afterlife.

Seeing how steadfast their subordinates were, Lady Callista and Michael couldn't help but praise them in their hearts.

Both of them then exchanged a glance at each other, which meant they must hold their ground for as long as possible until their reinforcements arrived.

A minute later, the sound of something cracking reached their ears.

Aaron's and Norman's smiles widened, knowing the protective barrier of the Leventis Family had started to crack.

"You take care of Michael," Aaron said. "I'll take care of Callista."

"Sure." Norman nodded.

The two Monarchs were confident they could easily subdue the two Champions, who were similar to ants in their eyes.

When the barrier finally broke, Aaron and Norman lunged at their targets while their subordinates attacked the retainers of the Leventis Family.

But just as the two forces were about to clash, Lady Callista and Michael took out their mythical weapons and exchanged blows with the two Monarchs.

Aaron skidded a few meters from the ground and looked at his opponent in disbelief.

Norman, on the other hand, took a step back, while Michael took four steps back as a result of their clash.

"Y-You're a Monarch?!" Aaron looked at the beautiful lady in disbelief. "Since when?!"

Instead of answering his question, Lady Callista took a step forward and disappeared from where she stood.

A second later, she reappeared a few meters away from Aaron and unleashed a flurry of deadly strikes using her two short swords.

Their exchange resulted in powerful shock waves that pushed everyone away from where they were fighting.

Norman, on the other hand, looked at Michael in disbelief. "You're now a peak Throne."

Michael fixed his glasses with his middle finger while taking a fighting stance with his mythical spear.

"Surprised?" Michael asked in disdain.

"Yes," Norman replied. "Very. I am very happy I've come here. Isn't it great? I got the chance to nip you in the bud before you become stronger."

He was already shocked to see that Lady Callista had become a Monarch, but seeing Michael as a Throne brought him a greater shock.

If these two were already this strong, that only meant one thing.

Arthur Leventis had also successfully stepped into the rank of a Monarch.

A family with two Monarchs and a Throne was completely unheard of in Pangea.

If this was made public, the Leventis Family would without a doubt become the strongest Monarch Clan in Pangea.

Aaron and Norman wouldn't risk this happening, so they decided not to take the two as prisoners and went for the kill instead.

They couldn't allow such a threat to exist, and getting rid of them now was the only option.

While Norman might be able to kill Michael, that was the complete opposite for Aaron.

Both of them were Monarchs.

Both of them wielded Mythical Weapons.

But there was one key difference between the two.

Lady Callista was using a Divine Grade Martial Technique, while Aaron was only using a Gold Grade Technique.

This was the deciding factor that made the Monarch's face distort in anger.

He had initially thought this would be an easy mission, but the situation proved otherwise. Although unwilling to admit it, the reality was that he was being pushed back by the lady he had looked down on earlier.

"Damn it!" Aaron cursed as he focused on defending himself from Lady Callista's merciless strikes. "Norman! Kill that bastard quickly and help me!"

"Help yourself, fool!" Norman shouted in anger. Although he was stronger than Michael, his opponent's technique was far superior to his.

The manager of the Leventis family was being pushed back by each exchange and was also starting to suffer some minor injuries.

However, his gaze was filled with determination.

Just like Aaron was waiting for Norman to eliminate Michael so they could tramp up together, Michael was also waiting for Lady Callista to kill Aaron, so they could tear apart Norman Stallard.

Seeing that Norman wouldn't be able to end his fight right away, Aaron gritted his teeth as he called out his trump card.

"Exodia, come to me!" Aaron roared.

The biggest plane in the sky, circling around the Leventis residence, opened its hatch.

A four-meter-tall creature that looked very much like an Azothrall jumped out of it.

The main difference between the Azothralls and the alien monster from the Ashford Clan was that it was red in color and had eight tentacles moving behind its back like murderous snakes.

Lady Callista and Michael frowned at the same time because the creature that was about to descend to the battlefield was a Rank 9 Sovereign.

An existence that could very much break the precious balance between the two forces, who were currently fighting each other to the death.
