Chapter 124 The People Of The New World (Part III)
Charles's arm, which was ripped off, caused a stir in the surrounding area. Courtney, Rose fainted at sight. Who knew that Gram had a bad temper?
Reina and Nene glared at Gram for what he had done. They were prepared to attack but stopped once they saw something unusual happen.
"Number two. I didn't think you would do that."
Everyone was surprised to hear Charles speak without any concern. The blood flowing out of him was still increasing further by the second. It wouldn't be surprising if he had already died from blood loss. What was even more impressive was the smile on Charles's face.
Compared to him a few months ago during the London incident, he was crying like a baby. Everyone could see that the loss of an arm did not affect him at all. It wouldn't be surprising if Charles himself were a monster.
Charles could have healed himself already, but he knew it would be more dramatic if he left himself like this.
Many people couldn't believe their eyes. If this were an animated film, they would have their eyes bulging from shock.
"If you're prepared to do that, then don't blame me for doing the same."
Like what Gram had done earlier to Charles, Charles ripped the head of Gram off of his body. No one could react to his movement. In an instant, Gram was decapitated just like that.
Chills could be seen coming from everyone. They knew Charles would be strong from his rank alone. But none of them could have expected Charles to defeat the second ranker in a matter of seconds. As for the remaining black cat tribe, they were scared shitless.
Gram's action could have affected their whole tribe. If Charles chose to take it even further, they would die here.
"Don't worry. Your chief is still alive. I'm only teaching him a lesson."
There was no way that Charles would let Gram have an easy death. Everyone could see the movement coming from Gram's eyes and mouth. Without a vocal cord, he was unable to make a noise.
No one could believe what they were seeing. Shock after another, everyone wondered what Charles had done.
Charles had ripped Gram's head out with him still alive. Charles twirled Gram's head like it was a toy. If Gram's head were attached to his body, he would've thrown up due to nausea.
"Uncle, here's your body back."
Having a little fun playing with his head, he attached his head back to his body. Gram's face paled once he knew everything had returned to normal.
He felt everything that had happened. Usually, one would die quickly from having your head fly off. The pain that he felt was one no one should have ever felt.
Gram looked like he was going to have a panic attack. Charles grinned with his face toward Gram. With so much pressure that he felt earlier, he was now on his knees.
"Stop..."
Charles's remaining hand once again reached toward Gram slowly. Looking down at him, he flicked his finger on his forehead.
"There's no need to be scared."
Everyone could tell that Charles was mocking him.
"Nene, let's check out uncle's place."
The "wound" that Charles had received had disappeared. His arm was ripped off and recovered in a blink of an eye. No one was surprised anymore. If he wanted to, he could wipe everyone off the face of the world.
Charles then went to the fallen body of Courtney and Rose. With them fainted from the horror they just saw, Charles lifted them using each arm.
Looking at the current Charles, the scary him was much more approachable. Seeing him care for two women after destroying a man's confidence was a drastic change.
"When are you guys returning? Nene is interested to see what your place is like."
Not right in the head, Nene chuckled at Charles's imposing figure. Due to her childhood spent with Linsey, some sadistic nature was adopted from her.
The black cat tribe didn't want Charles to come. They had no choice since Nene found some interest in going to their place.
"Follow me..."
Gram, who had extraordinary willpower, got himself back together. Knowing that Charles was someone he couldn't beat, making him angry was the last thing he wanted.
"Constance, are you joining us?"
Constance has been in this meeting this whole night, just standing there. It was a miracle for Charles to notice her since her presence in this meeting was less than it should have been.
"God has given me a duty."
"..."
Charles had no words for her. Seeing that she wasn't coming, he looked at Gram, telling him to start moving. Following Gram's lead, Charles's group and the black cat tribe left.
As for the remaining people in this meeting, they were just spectators unable to join in. Being ignored by Charles was probably the best solution for their current situation.
"Is the first rank always like that..."
Someone from the Necropolis side questioned Charles's personality. He had muttered what he said, but everyone here who had good hearing had heard what he said.
"Unfortunately, he is. It doesn't help that he doesn't have the best upbringing."
Felicia answered, for everyone curious. This type of information wasn't too hard to obtain. In fact, as the most famous man in the world, information about his past was leaked. It was a miracle that his parents were still alive with this information available.
Living in a condition where the world was against you for eighteen years would make anyone insane. Earth was lucky that his resentment wasn't for all of humanity.
Felicia shifted the topic away from him. Charles may be listening to their conversation as they speak. She didn't want anything to ruin this successful night.
With night approaching, everyone started to leave one by one. Having some connection between everyone brought great news to everyone. Not only was a nonaggression pact signed, but the chance of having an alliance may soon appear.
