Guild Wars
chapter-1184

Ratigal froze on the spot as he gazed at the spot where Ratingo was being treated like a filthy sponge that was being squeezed of its dirt. He immediately let go of the machine he was wielding to strike the barrier as his whole body trembled.

Ratingo was a half-step Divine General under the command of their Rat God whereas he was merely a Rank 7 Rat Marshal. The two of them belonged to the same company and since they were both born of the same litter their relationship had been as close as brothers.

Watching his mighty brother getting squeezed dry like this, Ratigal only felt endless fear towards the little girl. A few moments ago, the Rat Marshal had believed that the barrier was the only thing saving those inside from them. Cold sweat ran down Ratigal's neck as the realization struck him that they appeared to have been under the mercy of those inside the entire time.

Faced with this reality, Ratigal turned to run. If he didn't hurry and inform the noble True God about the steel plate they had kicked, their mighty Rat God Clan might end up wiped from history!

Alas, before Ratigal could even take two steps, a thick yet feminine palm grasped his head, locking him in place tightly robbing him of his ability to move. Ratigal was slowly turned around to see, to his shock and confusion, that two human females and one human male had appeared on his side of the barrier.

Those three wore different expressions as they watched the demise of Ratingo, yet the strangest thing about it all was the fact that another three of them stood right behind the still active barrier that were expressionlessly maintaining its operation!!

"Hey, hey, Daddy's home! Come and give me a hug my darlings!" Draco shouted out with joy as he casually walked into the barrier space.

Lucitera, who was busy wring Ratingo like a towel, immediately forget about him and squealed with joy as she shot into Draco's embrace. Ratingo's body crashed to the ground and twitched furiously as his lifeforce had kept him alive despite the pain which had been on a level that he had actually welcomed death.

Zaine, Hikari and Roma also jumped up and came to hug Draco, causing the fellow's arms to become congested right away. Lucitian and Loki scoffed and sulked by the side, acting as if they didn't care that Draco was back while glancing over with the corner of their eyes.

Eva and Shuangtian smiled and walked into the barrier along with Ratigal who was firmly grasped by Shuangtian like he was some doll. Seeing his mother, Lucitian jumped into her plentiful chest and rubbed his face within, making Shuangtian chuckle as she tossed Ratigal to the side and held her son lovingly.

Lucitera also went to Eva and cutely kissed her other cheek while lying in her arms, causing her mother's eyes to be filled with hearts. She cuddled her daughter gently, forgetting about everything else, feeling like it had been years since she saw her darling.

Draco smacked Loki on the head and grabbed his son who put up a weak struggle before falling into his embrace, along with Rosella who he nuzzled gently while the young lady blushed and Kuro who sat on top of his head in his dragon body.

Feeling the warmth of his family in his arms, Draco felt unprecedentedly rich at this moment. The turmoil of resolving the issues surrounding his clan, meeting his parents and dealing with the grievances of the past seemed so trivial when things were like this, though the settings could be better.

Draco manifested a wide platform that was cushioned and beckoned everyone to sit on it. The platform then hovered above the ground like a hoverboard while everyone sat in a relaxed manner.

"Since we're reunited, we must celebrate well! I say that we turn this castle into hell on earth and wash it with blood for daring to capture my family!" Draco announced with a bright smile, his children cheering while the women smiled softly.

Hearing such a brave statement, Ratigal, who was happy about the fact that he had been tossed into a corner and was doing his best to conceal his presence, as well as Ratingo, who was still conscious, both felt a chill in their hearts. It was one thing to state that there would be a bloodbath but why were the infants so happy?

What kind of family was this? What kind of existence did their Rat God Clan provoke?

"Let's watch the show. Since these defunct clones caused this problem, lets watch them fix it." Eva suggested as she controlled her Law Clone to remove the white barrier it conjured.

"I agree." Shuangtian added as she controlled her Law Clone to punch the gate of the dungeon, blasting it open with such velocity that the two guards outside it ended up as meatpaste.

Meanwhile, the real her pulled over Ratigal once more and nailed him to the side of the hoverboard, making him scream with agony. Meanwhile, Eva dragged over the mauled Ratingo and casually extracted his soul from his body, giving it to Lucitera who sat in her lap.

"Here dear, the mean bad guy who made you fall." Eva said gently, as if she was giving her child an ipad to play with rather than a sentient being's soul.

Lucitera happily took the Soul in hand and a mixture of black energy radiated from her as well as a holy white light, both of which fell on Ratingo's soul. One caused him great agony as if he was being tortured in the Nine Hells while the other made him feel euphoria as if he was feeling the pleasure of residing in the Seven Heavens.

The alternation between the two plunged him further into ceaseless pain that made him howl in the language of Souls, something which Roma and Rosella found to be very familiar.

Seeing her sister glancing over with interest, Lucitera magnanimously shared Ratingo's soul with Rosella, who was very grateful. The two sisters began to play with their little 'doll' while laughing together, the screams and wails of the soul in question amusing them.

The hoverboard slowly emerged from the dungeon as Rat God Clan guards rushed over with shocked expressions at seeing their dungeon was breached. The alarm was sounded immediately as hundreds of thousands of Rat God Clan warriors stopped what they were doing to rush over.

The three clones of law stood in front of the Morningstar family, causing raising their hands and launching various skills that the Evil Trio possessed, backed by laws and using them to strike down on the mass of troops rushing at them.

"Defend the Clan!!"

"Kill the intruders!!"

"For the Rat God!!"

The numerous Rat God Clan warriors were very brave as they rushed over, each heroically roaring battle cries that filled them with energy. Many of them buffed each other crazily with their own skills as they went into battle, causing their numbers to condense into a powerful horde.

In front of this, even a Rank 7 combatant would feel a great amount of pressure as this wave was made up of mostly Rank 3 and Rank 4 Rat Warriors, not a single Rank 1 or Rank 2 among them.

Judging by the numbers, this army was enough to conquer an entire continent on the Main Plane and this wasn't even the main force of the Rat God Clan, just the amount of them that were close by and could squeeze down this corridor.

This made the Evil Trio curious as they had never heard of such a force in the Divine Realm so far and wondered how they encountered them. However, despite their curiosity, their Clones of Law did not stop their actions.

Eva's clone raised her hand, her palm perpendicular to the floor as a mass of white energy converged in front of her outstretched arm. The next second, Divine Law was imbued into the palm and released as a giant beam cannon that covered the entire hallways, turning all the oncoming rat warriors into disintegrated ash that piled up on the ground.

The hoverboard moved along, passing over these melted ashes which were smoldering with heat that signified the lives of hundreds of ratmen defending their home. However, it was meaningless in the face of absolute power.

The structure they were in was definitely some kind of castle, and a floating one too. As they crossed through hallways with the Clones of Law obliterating any Ratman Warrior that dared to show its face, the layout of the castle became clearer and clearer as the Morningstar group rose from the lower levels to the upper levels.

They also began to encounter the higher-level Rat Captains at Rank 5 and the Rat Majors at Rank 6. They were considerably smarter than their peers and knew to try to run, but before Shuangtian's clone, it was pointless as her movement speed was too fast.

A single punch and anything she aimed at was turned into particles that floated in the air, left with only the smallest basic unit of their existence left.

As for the family behind them, they were currently listening to Draco regaling them with the story of his most recent adventure in reality. Hearing that his parents would soon appear in their world, Zaine, Roma and Hikari were incredibly nervous and pressured, questioning whether their in-laws would be satisfied with them.

Meanwhile, the kids were both excited and scared to meet their grandparents. After all, while they might regard Tianzi and Xue'er, the Dragon and Phoenix Ancestors, as their nominal grandparents, they knew that was just in title.

Soon enough, the group reached the topmost area of the castle, their three clones breaking down a giant set of golden doors. Behind them was a large throne room where a 7-foot ratman seated himself lazily and decadently within a golden throne.

｢Name: Ratipreme – True God

Level: Law of Hidden Scavenging (Advanced), Law of the Ratman Race (Supreme).

Divine Energy: 100%/100%.｣

The Ratman God on the throne glanced at the incoming Morningstar family with beady red eyes, scanning their power. Upon seeing that the strongest was only at the True level, he relaxed significantly and became even more decadent, swirling his goblet filled with a green color brew in a casual manner.

Draco, Eva and Shuangtian also glanced back at the fellow and raised their eyebrows. A Supreme Law Wielder was not something the three of them could easily fight against, but their suprise stemmed more from the fact that this was the first True God with two Laws that they had seen, not to mention that one was a racial law.

Draco pondered and then smiled. "My, my, it seems that we may have overlooked something very serious in our time during this realm."

Eva and Shuangtian knew what he was thinking, and their faces became slightly ugly.

Eva spoke in a dark tone. "It's true, I should have thought about it. All the True Gods we met in the Divine City were Single Law deities with NPC identities, but how could all remaining True Gods be NPCs? It only makes sense that there had to be Monster True Gods who survived the calamity."

"Taking it a step further, where were all those Gods all that time? Where were the Gods of the main plane sent to when Draco played that trick back then? There must be another territory where Monster Gods reside." Shuangtian added slowly.

Draco rubbed his chin with a smile. "I remember during my first unique quest, the Flora and Fauna one, that I met The True God of the Elf race when I went to the elf side and the True God of the Forest, Flora, who even gave me the Etz Chaim seedling back then."

"The progenitor of a race can only be an Origin God who possesses the full Law, but True Gods can also be racial gods whose Law would be capped at Supreme level by their racial ancestor." Draco continued.

He slapped his thighs and stood up as his casual robes shifted into his Dragorugio set.

"It seems like today we will have the pleasure of slaughtering a racial god."
