My beast Emperor System

Derik couldn't help but frown while gazing at Lucien. His instincts told him to kill this kid kept getting stronger the more he realized how much of a threat Lucien is to him. The reason why it took him so long when using the devour to consume the Phoenix flames is that the Phoenix flames had a life of their own and it could resist hid devour ability to a certain level. It was this same Phoenix flames that prevented him from healing when he fought Emperor Fei and reduced his so-called immortal body to ashes!

Gaining this ability, Lucien has become more of a threat than ever. While Derik possessed absolute, mysterious powers, Lucien possessed the most firepower amongst them. Making it possible for him to overwhelm Derik.

"I didn't live for a thousand years to be defeated by a child" Derik yawned and said with a frown. As long as he is concerned, killing Lucien will be a little troublesome at best but that's all for now. What Derik was worried about is the future! By the way, he only has two inheritances while this kid has three.

"Things will get more interesting from here on" Derik muttered as his body turned into a powerful ball of darkness charging towards Lucien.

If he just accepts defeat like that, people will get the wrong idea! As the god of death, fear is necessary for him to operate so he wouldn't let these people chant crap without paying the price!

Bang!

The big black ball smashed into the distracted emperor, dragging him towards the skies! Within the black ball of smoke, Lucien could see Derik's blood-red eyes and for the first time since they started fighting, he could feel Derik's killing intentions directed towards him!

"Shit! Did I piss him off or something?!" Lucien muttered as he struggled but he could not break free from Derik's grasp!

"Don't blame me for this!" Lucien growled as one eye turned blue while the other turned white!

Aaaaarrrrrgggh!

Bang!

Following the loud scream a massive explosion occurred, consisting of both flames and lightning but even then Derik didn't go! With the devour absorbing the power directed towards him, Derik kept dragging Lucien upward! It seemed as if he planned to suffocate him in space!

"This!" Lucien gritted his teeth as he found it hard to breathe, especially since they have gone so far.

"Let's see how strong that shell of yours is" Derik finally spoke giving him the chills.

Wam!

Suddenly they stopped ascending and began free-falling at a stunning speed!

"YOU ARE CRAZY!" Lucien scream at the top of his voice as he attempted to use his wings but using his devour powers, Derik slowly consumed the lightning wings making Lucien unable to fly!

The people saw the black ball shooting down at an astonishing speed, making them turn pale in fear! Everyone quickly ran as far as they could as the duo crashed into the ground, creating a massive explosion that created a five-meter deep crater!

Slowly those who ran approached the pit created by the fall and to their greatest surprise Lucien was on the ground, and even though he wasn't bleeding due to his dragon scales, he felt like his head had been hit by a truck.

Meanwhile, Derik stood with his head split open by the impact but his wound was healing at an astonishing rate, making people shiver!

"EMPEROR!!"

By this time Klaus and other noble clan heads had arrived at the scene but what happened next shocked everyone around.

"You seriously survived that? You are more capable than I thought!" Derik said truthfully as he extended his hand.

Grabbing his aching head with one hand, Lucien accepted Derik's help with the other hand, pulling himself off the ground with his support.

"Crazy bastard!" Lucien cursed and Derik chuckled.

Seeing the way both of them talked, it was clear these two were not fighting to kill each other but it was more like a friendly spar. Either way, after seeing Derik's suicide tactics, people were more afraid of Derik, and this pleased Derik.

The night was dedicated to fixing the damages done to the castle and the next morning, the noble clan heads gathered once again. Seeing Lucien on the throne with his hand placed on his head they couldn't help but wonder how much pain the emperor is in right now. Behind him were instructor Han and Alice.

Bang!

The two doors swung open and the man shrouded in black gas appeared with an indifferent look on his face. His eyes showed no emotion but its blood-red color made many people fearful. He didn't seem to be walking, it felt more like he was levitating as no footstep could be heard.

Gazing at this man, many people recognized him as the being they sort help for when they wished to carry out a coup!

How long has that been?

Time passes quickly.

"Since then I have been forced to jump from one battle to another... I guess the emperor was bearing all the burden and now he is gone, I have no choice but to deal with these problems myself" Lucien muttered with a depressing look on his face.

Snap!

With a snap, a massive bone throne rose from the ground, and Derik slowly at on with his legs crossed. He placed one hand on the armrest and rested his jaw on his fist. Seeing him sit this way at the center of the room, many people wanted to curse him but no one dared to do so. They were scared he would beat the shit out of the Emperor before beating the shit about them as well.

"Idiots" Derik said calmly as he gazed at Alice standing behind Lucien.

"We have the creed to deal with... We have the invaders to deal with and all you guys have done is sit and wait for good fortune?" Derik said calmly and everyone remained silent.

In the court of nobles, no one dared talk back at him since they knew he was right. What they were all waiting for now is to know his plan
