Chapter 150: Chapter 150
Greg was in front of these hunters. They all looked hostile and judging by their weapons, they were ready to fight.
It is true that with the tensions due to the actions of the Shield of Rain and their allies within the Alliance, it was necessary to suspect that these people would not remain quiet for long.
But from there to coming within the most powerful pack of the city to challenge it, it must be admitted that these people are not lacking courage. Sure, he's pretty confident in his strength, but hunters aren't a threat to creatures for nothing. Even though they are only humans, it is clear that these people pose a real danger to creatures.
Greg walked up to the guild leader with Rayan and Elsa at his side. The situation with the traitors had already been settled and right now he had only one thing in mind. Go in search of Sophia no matter where she is. He would turn over the whole earth if necessary.
" What are you doing here, hunters? And in these positions? Isn't that a violation of the peace treaty?"
Greg spoke as the man opposite snorted mockingly.
" Breach? Do you dare speak of a violation of the peace treaty when you are the first to have violated it?"
The man screamed as Rayan got into a fighting stance.
" Measure your words in front of our Alpha."
He growled as Greg just raised his hand to calm him down.
" Well, you say that the creatures have violated the peace treaty. But how exactly?"
Greg spoke calmly which pissed off the hunters even more.
" Don't act as if you don't know anything... You are the first to have attacked and now we are here to retort."
The hunters got into a fighting stance as the lycans did the same.
" I see, so you didn't come to discuss."
Greg cracked his fingers at fine fluctuations playing between them as the guild leader looked around.
"You are shameless…"
He accused Greg, having already gotten an idea of the real culprits behind this mess, but still decided to find out. He doesn't like killing for no real reason.
" Just to know, what exactly are you accusing us of?"
The hunters got angry at what they called mockery.
The guild leader bowed his head clutching his weapon tightly
" You are an abject being... How dare you ask such a question after your misdeeds?"
Elsa jumped in front of the man, kicking him hard which sent him flying away.
" It seems to me that you have been warned not to disrespect our Alpha."
Elsa spoke coldly as the hunters who were still reeling from the sudden attack quickly resumed attacking Elsa.
This was the start of hostilities on the side of the lycans who threw themselves into the battle of some shape-shifters to turn into wolves.
It was complete chaos and Greg frowned. It wasn't good, especially when he knows the ins and outs of this case. They are playing the game of their enemy, the Shield of Rain. They are all in the palm of this despicable man's hand and they can't get out of it.
He doesn't know what could have happened to light the powder fire but from where the hunters arrived, something horrible must have happened on their side. He looked around not seeing Chad and scowled. For once he needed this little asshole.
He sighed as he knocked off three hunters who had flanked him and pounced on him. He scattered them with his energy and advanced toward the guild leader.
If the enemy wants to see them kill each other like this, it's because he's preparing something more serious further on and he needs two here to divert their attention.
He arrived in front of the hunter who had already defeated several lycans and sighed. Unnecessary victims must not be added to the process. He must understand the situation.
" Stop…"
He ordered all the lycans to stop as if they were puppets. The guild leader scowled, so that's the power a powerful Alpha wields over his pack members. It's like a psychic connection that binds them to him and commands them to follow his rules. Of course, there are caveats, only those who have decided to submit to the Alpha will bow to this power.
The hunters wanted to take advantage of the fact that the lycans were now distracted to stop them but Greg used Dominium on them to stop them.
" I said stop… I don't like to repeat myself."
Hunters unlike Lycans were now immobile unable to make a move. The positions Greg had placed them in made them look like statutes and only their eyes and mouths could move.
The guild leader trembled at such insane power before realizing he was the only one who could move.
He advanced towards Greg with a dark look before speaking.
" Why are you stopping us?"
"I want to understand."
The guild leader frowned but calmed down a bit. This man can command hunters to kill each other at any time if he considers the nature of his unique ability. But why is he trying to talk to them instead?
He sighed demanding that Greg free his comrades first.
"Little impertinent."
Rayan growled but Greg waved him down. They are in a complicated situation and he is ready to make concessions if it is to understand what is happening here and thus go and rescue Sophia.
Greg freed the people under power before looking the man in the face straight in the eye.
" What are you accusing us of?"
The hunter gritted his teeth before speaking.
"This morning, a lycan infiltrated our base and killed our spiritual guide, our priestess who was an alfe. We know about the hunt that your kind has launched on the alves. We discovered after this attack that it is the lycans who are behind the massacre of the alfe species, and you, as master of the lycans, are the main culprit. .."
The man charged as the lycans growled ready to attack.
Greg sighed before looking at the man.
" So you tell me that I sent a lycan to assassinate your priestess because I discovered that you were hiding one in your guild. Also, I was careless enough to reveal to you my intentions and responsibility for the slaughter of this race, giving you the necessary evidence to start a war!?"
Greg spoke sarcastically as the man across the way frowned. Said like that, it sounded a bit odd indeed. But how to explain this situation? The murderer of their priestess could indeed have left quietly, but he stayed, he showed himself to them, and he even came with proof that the lycans were the perpetrators of the massacres on the alves. He then showed them a track leading them to another alfe and now they are in the middle of a fight with the lycans.
Something is wrong here.
"You have been manipulated, what morons."
Rayan scoffed, receiving admonitions from his wife.
"Who would have had an interest in seeing us at war?"
Greg sighed, he had not spoken of his discoveries to his family, even less to the pack even if for the last, he had been right with the many traitors who were hiding there.
He looked at the hunter in front of him before speaking
" This is a maneuver of a once-banished pack that seeks to create chaos in this city. They're responsible for all the crap that's happened in this town for the past twenty years and now they're about to create unprecedented chaos."
Greg announced, causing the entire audience to gasp.
" Trent, don't tell me that."
" indeed Elsa, it is the Shield of Rain who is responsible for all this shit"
Gasps and hiccups were heard here and there as hunters not convinced of the veracity of Greg's words expressed reservations.
" And who tells us that you are not yet trying to play us?"
" I'm going to kill this little rascal…"
Rayan pulled out the fangs but an unexpected voice stopped them all.
"What the Alpha of Soul Moon has just said is the true guild leader. Me Chad, a diamond-level hunter can attest to that."
Chad had just arrived and he spoke as he walked over and stood beside Greg.
" I cooperated with the master of the lycans, the queen of witches, and Duke Chiroptera to discover the shenanigans of this banished pack. Thanks to Soul Moon's Luna, we found out what these people want and the man who killed our priestess... Jessy is a member of Shield of Rain."
Greg turned surprised. Jessy killed an alfe? For what?
Chad just nodded before continuing.
" Jessy is dead but his death was premeditated to create a war. They are aware of our maneuvers and have decided to act quickly... Where is Sophia?"
Chad looked around not seeing Sophia as Greg gritted his teeth.
"Those scum kidnapped her."
" What? And what the hell were you doing?"
"you calm down."
The people around them were quite lost in their exchange but especially their closeness. The hunter leader just shook his head before speaking.
" Anyway, Alpha of the Soul Moons, we have also discovered that your Luna is one of the beings we worship... In other words, we have rules, no creature should unite with a human, but worse, no creature is allowed to touch an alfe. Sophia is an alfe so she must return to us."
