âHahaha! Let me, The Fastest Sword of Hermit Mountain, also lend a hand!â Another male voice sounded chivalrously.
âSixth Senior Brother!â Autumn Rosenbloom moaned in even greater distress!
âOf course, if The Fastest Sword and The Strongest Kick of Hermit Mountain lend a hand, how would I, the Fattest Wall of Hermit Mountain, dare to withhold my aid? Here I come as well!â Cried another voice.
âTenth Senior Brotherâ¦â Autumn Rosenbloom was literally depressed at that moment. She sighed deeply and looked at the others with a strange but complex look on her face.
âI am sorry-â She began. But she was not able to complete her sentence before three similar Dome Palaces landed heavily on the ground before them.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Their domes immediately retracted and three young men leapt out flamboyantly.
The one standing in front as their leader was presumably Fifth Senior Brother.
The first thing that struck Elliot with the force of a sledgehammer was that he was an Emperor!
Fifth Senior Brother was a powerful looking young man, tall and very muscular. He was dressed in very traditional garb similar to the ancient Chinese of Planet Earth. His right hand gripped a sheathed sword which was completely black and gave out an ominous feeling to all who were present.
The other two Senior Brothers werenât as imposing as the Fifth Senior Brother, but they too exuded a power that was unmistakably at the Emperor level!
The fat and round one on Fifth Senior Brotherâs left was definitely Tenth Senior Brother, The Fattest Wall of Hermit Mountain. He was wearing light brown armor that made him look very, very similar to an armored egg.
The tall and lanky on on Fifth Senior Brotherâs right was Sixth Senior Brother, the Fastest Sword of Hermit Mountain. He was similarly garbed in traditional wear, and had a sheathed blue sword by his side. He exuded a sharpness that felt incomparibly dangerous to Elliot.
Elliot immediately went on high alert.
âSenior brothers!â Autumn Rosenbloom cried out. âDonât do-â
âSAY NO MORE! I can see how distressed you are, and I will make sure I avenge you completely!â Fifth Senior Brother, the Strongest Kick of Hermit Mountain said gallantly, completely oblivious that Autumnâs distress was caused almost entirely by him and his two brothers.
âNO! DO NOT-â
âTWELFTH JUNIOR SISTER! Fifth Senior Brother had already said that he would avenge you! Trust him and be at ease!â Tenth Senior Brother the Fattest Egg of Hermit Mountain cried out.
âYes, Twelfth Junior Sister. Please stand aside and let us do our job. After all, Second Senior Brother had specifically instructed us to âtake good care of our junior sister! You wouldnât want to make Second Senior Brother sad, donât you?â Fifth Senior Brother the Fastest Sword of Hermit Mountain said loudly.
âWhy are you bringing Second Senior Brother into the conversation?! Donât mention him in front of me!â Autumn Rosenbloom shouted angrily.
âAlright, alright. I am sorry for intruding into your loverâs quarrel. My bad, Twelfth Junior Sister!â Sixth Senior Brother chuckled lightly.
âWHAT LOVERâS QUARREL! ZHANG WEI! YOU WATCH YOUR DAMN MOUTH BEFORE I RIP OUT YOUR TONGUE!â Autumn Rosenbloom roared in anger.
âEnough. Fat Wall, take her away. Fast Sword and I will take care of the three others.â Fifth Senior Brother Zhang Wei snapped.
Fat Wall immediately leapt forward with surprising agility and surrounded Autumn with an incomparably thick energy before whisking her a few kilometers away.
âSorry Junior Sister, weâll have to wait here while Fast Sword and Divine Fighter deals with the three ants that dared to make you so distressed.â Fat Wall said apologetically.
âFat Wall. Let me go right now. If now when I get back, I will get Eldest Senior Brother to discipline you for daring to lay hands on me this way.â Autumn Rosenbloom threatened softly.
Fat Wall trembled in fear for a quick moment at the mention of the ferocious Eldest Senior Brother who doted on Autumn like she was his real sister. However, he immediately caught himself and laughed softly in reply.
âIf Eldest Senior Brother wished to discipline me, then he has to ask Second Senior Brotherâs sword first if he can do that. I am, after all, Second Senior Brotherâs loyal supporter.â Fat Wall sneered.
âHooo. Your Second Senior Brother sure is high and mighty now that he has acquired a rare treasure sword, huh? You think that a rare treasure sword and whatever shitty manual he found in that Ancient Inheritance can help him bridge the gap between him and Eldest Senior Brotherâs Vast Universe Sword Art? Delusional! If you donât let me go, I can promise you that the three of you will not enjoy the next one hundred years of your life!â Autumn said fiercely.
âEnough with the nonsense!â Fat Wall snapped at her angrily and shed all pretense of being cordial. âSecond Senior Brother had assured our complete safety and immunity against Master and Eldest Senior Brother. All you have to do is to follow us quietly!â
âFollow you quietly? I see, so youâre not ârescuing meâ from the three of them. Youâre kidnapping me, huh?â Autumn said as a chilling realization fell upon her.
âJust shut up and accept your fate.â Fat Wall growled. âWho told you to keep resisting Second Senior Brothersâs kind intentions and approaches? Now heâs all out of patience, you have to bear his wrath yourself.â
At that, however, a powerful sense of wrongness bloomed in Autumnâs heart.
âYou may not know it, but after you rejected him again last time, Second Senior Brother fell into a deep rage. He summoned us and gave us this mission of âinvitingâ you at all cost to the Broken Planets for a visual presentation of how much he loves you. Weâre here to bring you there under his bidding. After we kill the three gnats, of course.â Fat Wall said sinisterly.
âThatâs not like Second Senior Brother at all. He would NEVER do such a thing to me, or to innocent people like the three of them.â Autumn said softly.
