Greed All For What Chapter 976

[ … words ]

The blood beast shrunk after the fight. It has become even bigger from absorbing all the ice golems. But it is being recalled into his body now. Xigger appeared after the sea of blood disappeared completely into his body. He has become even taller now. His height has increased to 13 meters after growing an extra 2 meters. 

He looked in the direction that Ragnarok ran to and said, “It is time to get my son.”

“There’s someone still alive down there. I am impressed that they are still alive.” The voice within his head informed him.

“Are you sure? So there’s more than Ragnarok imprisoned down there. Who are they?” He asked the voice.

“I don’t know. I can’t get anything specific. But it doesn’t matter. Your son is within your reach now. You should get him as soon as possible.” The voice urged him to go after Ragnarok now.

Xigger said, “I have to save this person if they are a Warrog.” 

“What about Ragnarok?”

Xigger insisted, “My son is still alive and well. He hasn’t gone too far. Besides, I won’t take long. I will just check to make sure.” 

The voice in his head grumbled some more about stupid acts of heroism but Xigger didn’t change his mind. He only cares about two things. That is his son and the Warrog race. He will not feel good leaving a Warrog that he can easily help to die. So he created a blood hand. 

The hand of blood seeped into the wreckage of the mountain and dug out the only living being at the bottom of the mountain. A large Warrog with red fur and 8 tails appeared from beneath the rubble. 

Xigger’s eyes widened when he saw who it was. Even the voice in his head was very surprised.

The voice exclaimed, “Someone must be up to some trickery. It is either that or this is not an Emperor.”

“A Warrog Emperor in the flesh. I thought they were all dead. How is one still alive?” Xigger asked.

“He was imprisoned and I couldn’t sense him well because of the shackles on him. I didn’t sense him at all when the mountain was here. It is probably that White idiot’s doing. It doesn’t like killing so it would rather imprison its enemies instead of outright killing them. What a wuss.” The voice snickered in Xigger’s head.

Xigger broke the shackles on the Emperor immediately. The Emperor had been quiet since. He could sense that Xigger is more powerful than it and it is also helpless to defend itself. It recognized Xigger to be a sort of Warrog but it had never seen such a strange Warrog. So it kept quiet. Then it was surprised when Xigger freed it.

The Emperor introduced himself. “Thank you for granting me my freedom. I am Emperor Fenrir. Who might you be?”

Xigger would have fainted if he could faint. But he can’t faint. Instead, he fell to his knees and bowed his head. He said, “I pay my respects to the greatest Emperor of Warrogs. I am beyond exhilarated to see you alive and well.”

This Emperor is a hero of the Warrog race that he looks up to. Almost every Warrog looks up to Emperor Fenrir the greatest emperor of all time. He grew up hearing tales of the mighty Fenrir so he can’t help but be overwhelmed with emotions. Meeting Fenrir is that overwhelming. 

Fenrir was taken aback. He understood the implication of the act of submission that Xigger displayed. He said, “So you are a Warrog. How are you like this? I thought the Warrogs were being oppressed by the Tree people. How did you become so powerful?”

Xigger sighed and replied, “I am sure that you have a lot of questions. But I do not have the time to answer them personally. I have to get to my son.”

“You mean that Executioner? He is still alive?” Fenrir asked in surprise. “I thought he would have been killed by the crashing mountain.”

“He is still alive and it is my duty to protect him so I have to meet up with him before the tree people catch him. It is also my duty to make sure that you are safe or at least well-informed about the situation of the plane. So I will give you some of my memories. I hope it will help you keep yourself safe. The tree people are really oppressing us and they are killing every paragon of our race.”

He gave the Emperor a strand of his memories. A silver of his solidified divine sense separated from him and was received by the Emperor.

The Emperor bowed and said, “Thank you very much for this gift. I see that even though you have lost your way, you are still a true Warrog who still has honor and self-respect. I hope we can meet again.”

He bowed in return. “I hope we can meet again.”

Then he flew off to catch Ragnarok. The voice in his head was quiet. The demon god didn’t say anything to him because it is too happy right now and it isn’t sure that it can keep its happiness out of its voice. It is best to keep quiet so that Xigger will not become suspicious of its source of happiness. 

“Two for the price of one. Let me see those two bitches try to stop me now.” The demon god thought to itself in glee. “I know that the conversion is highly likely to fail since this Emperor has not been bestowed with the law fragments of life but I can surely hope.”

Xigger continued chasing after his son. Meanwhile, the Demon god laughed to itself. The prospect of gaining two paragons is a very happy thing for the demon god.

Emperor Fenrir watched Xigger go before running away himself. His great form dashed across the icy landscape with incredible familiarity. He didn’t seem like a stranger in a new land. And it is not because of the memories that Xigger gave him.

A voice rang out in Fenrir’s head, “That Xigger is admirable. It is unfortunate that he is an abomination.”
