Chapter 84 - Chaos 3
Receiving the instruction from Winton, the purple fist charged forward towards Elder Mahan
"Boom!"
Sensing that the battle had now progressed to a critical stage, Elder Harlan knew that he couldn't continue to stay there and quickly turned towards Dante
"Dante, I need to return back to the fight so you're going to have to speed up the retreat.
In addition to this, you should be prepared for the worst. From the looks of things, it's possible we may even lose this fight..."
With a grimace on his face, Elder Harlan rose back into the sky and charged towards the battlefield.
Dante watched on as Elder Harlan fearlessly charged back into the fray with no fear for his own life.
But he quickly realised that he didn't have time to be admiring others, He had a bigger problem on his hands!
He had to ensure the safety of the members of the Kinsman Clan!
Not all of the members of the Kinsman Clan had the ability to defend themselves. The inter-clan competition was the biggest event brightsteel city had in many years and almost all the members of the Kinsman clan had come to watch the competition.
What they hadn't expected however was such an instant outbreak of conflict and because of that, the non-combatant members of the Kinsman clan were still at the scene of battle.
And since the Kinsman Clan compound was on the complete other side of Brightsteel City, if he decided to walk all the people back to the clan compound it would just take too much time.
He had to take the quickest means of transport to move such a large crowd of people and the only option was the carriages parked near the edge of the arena.
Like Dante, many people had taken carriages to arrive at the arena leaving many horses and carriages that could easily transport all the people present.
Now that Dante had even some semblance of a plan, he wouldn't waste any more time standing around.

Taking a step forward, Dante spoke to the crowd of Kinsman Clan members in front of him
"I believe everyone present knows the severity of the situation we are in right now!
And it's because of this exact situation that we can't afford to waste any more time and run around like headless chickens!
As the strongest member of the Kinsman Clan present, I shall appoint myself as temporary leader, if anyone has any objections speak up now!"
The crowd heard Dante's words and there was a brief period of silence.
no one had objected to Dante's decision but what else could they do?
As long as they had any brain cells left, they could easily tell that Dante wasn't in the mood to play games and objecting at a stupid time like this was just an easy way to get yourself killed as an example.
Nobody was willing to become the example, so they chose the much smarter option.
Obey the strong!
As the strongest person present, Dante could easily determine the life and death of everyone here so pissing of someone with such power was never a good decision.
Dante looked at the silent crowd in front of him and gave a satisfied nod.
"Seeing as I can't hear any words of disagreement, I'll take it as everyone approves of my decision.
And since everyone has agreed then my instructions from this point onward are final!"
while Dante was speaking he slightly released his Dragon fear aura causing a commanding effect to come with his words
"We are currently in a war situation so theirs no time for internal conflict.
Any refusal to follow orders or purposely hindering the clan only has one result.
Death!"
"gulp!"
Under the complete suppression from Dante, some Kinsman clan members could only gulp in fear at his terrifying aura.
Seeing that his control had been established, Dante continued giving out instructions.
"Time is of the essence we need to get out as fast as possible, in order to do this we will need to retrieve some horses in order to aid our escape."
as Dante spoke he began to move but turning back he saw that the crowd was still standing there stunned
"Well, what are you waiting for?
Do you want to stay here and die? Get moving!"
With those words, the crowd of Kinsman Clan members burst into life as they rushed after Dante.
So with a crowd of almost a hundred people behind him, Dante began to speed towards the exit of the arena whilst also being on the watch out for any Slater Clan attackers.
Suddenly, Dante felt some rustling coming from his arms. looking down, Dante could see that Rebecca, who had been in his hands the whole time, slowly began to wake up from her sleep.
looking at this sight, a soft smile appeared on Dante's face as he spoke
"Good morning sleeping beauty, I hope you had a good sleep."
groggily, Rebecca rubbed her eyes before looking up and asking
"what's going on? where the hell am I?"
Dante didn't even stop running as he replied
"There's no time to explain it all to you . All I can say is that right now we need to escape."
"Escape?
Why the hell would we need to escape?
Besides, put me down. I'm awake now there's no need to keep carrying me!"
as she was speaking Dante quickly interrupted her
"I refuse.
you've still not fully recovered. You need to rest. "
Dante smiled as he watched the flustered Rebecca blush in his arms.
But suddenly a change happened that caused his smile to disappear from his face even faster than it appeared.
Just as Dante was approaching the exit to the arena, he saw a figure blocking his path.
Dante quickly brought his run to a stop and in doing so, caused the crowd of the Kinsman Clan members to stop right behind him.
"Curtis." spat Dante hatefully
But Curtis didn't seem to share the same hatred for Dante and was instead much happier to see Dante this time.
"Hahaha!
I hope you didn't think you could escape so easily again Dante!"
While Curtis was speaking, Dante gently let Rebecca out of his arms onto the ground.
Seeing Rebecca again, Curtis's desire for revenge once again exploded causing a twisted smile to appear on his face
"I truly have to thank the Kinsman Clan this time!" Laughed Curtis
hearing Curtis's words, Dante couldn't help but give him a strange look, but not just him, even all the members of the Kinsman Clan present looked at him strangely
'he really is not alright in the head
Maybe I really did knock a few screws loose?' thought Dante to himself
But Curtis didn't seem to notice the storage looks he was receiving and continued to speak.
"War.
Death.
Bloodshed.
The kinsman Clan really has done me a favour in creating such a wonderful environment.
With such conditions all around, how could I lose to anyone!"
hearing these words, everything finally started to make sense to Dante
'Shit!'
