MMORPG : Rebirth Of The Strongest Vampire God
chapter-299

" Captain Ravan, are you familiar with this ancient prophecy of our kind? " Vega asked Max as he receded the intense pressure he was exerting on Max

Max could see it within Vega's eyes that the man knew the answer to this question but was only testing Max.

If Max said no, Vega would undoubtedly be disappointed with his answer and know that he is lying, whereas if Max said yes he would be opening himself to a whole new degree of cross-questioning where eventually he would hit a point where he would need to lie anyways.

Stuck between a rock and a hard place, Max decided to take the middle route as he said " Maybe, I'm not sure if I recollect"

Patriarch Vega scoffed at Max's answer as he pointed to one of the empty chairs in his courtroom and said " Please, let's sit as we have this conversation.

I think that if you are comfortable you won't have trouble recollecting things as much "

Max had no choice but to agree to the patriarch's request as he nervously took a seat, and Vega sat beside him.

Unlike his posture which exuded power and authority when he sat on the throne Vega instantly slumped and put one leg over the other when he sat in the minister's chair in the courtroom.

" Let me clear a popular misconception for you, Captain Ravan, I think it will help you in your future career path.

The commoners believe that warriors above tier4 have endless stamina and don't need to rest at all.

Let me tell you something, even as a tier7 god, I only find comfort in comfortable positions

Sitting straight consumes more energy, and while my energy pool is large and I can sit straight for years if I want to, the satisfaction of sitting relaxed is unparalleled

I hope you don't mind ". Vega said as he tapped on Max's shoulders in a friendly manner.

" Of Course patriarch Vega, thankyou for sharing this valuable life lesson with me " Max said politely as Vega scoffed again.

Vega was testing Max's character, and so far the start hadn't been too great.

The exact kind of people Vega hated the most were the ' Yes men ' who said yes to anything and everything that he said, and while his lesson right now to Max was full of bullshit the other party still pretended to be grateful for it.

It could be interpreted as a sign of respect, which was a good thing, but since Vega was trying to push Max's buttons he decided to scoff.

" I've heard that you took down an entire fort by yourself, it must be a battle to remember nay? " Vega asked as he gave Max a creepy smile.

" It's exaggerated my lord, I had much help from my friends and their dragon mounts " Max said politely as he did not like the direction of this conversation.

" Dragon's for mounts eh? Must be a big adventure to acquire such valuable creatures at such a weak tier.

Most tier2 warriors would choose to sell those eggs, but those people are idiots. A dragon mount is worth more than any item you can ever purchase.

Which reminds me of your personal wealth of billions of gold coins and a VIP status at the seven seas bank.

I must say Captain, a rich man yourself joining a military career is unheard of.

You can probably buy a planet of your own and live like a king for the rest of your life, but you chose to join the Titus clan.

Usually, No- not usually, 99.9999% times we never dig up information on our joinees especially when they are doing well and not causing a ruckus. But we had to make an exception for you.

You see, before joining the Titus clan you signed a contract and had to go through a full status bar check which we swore to never reveal to a third party or pry into except if you betray us.

But you see there was a technicality in that contract that let me, the patriarch of the Titus clan, access all those records freely at my will, so I did some digging about you because of my curiosity for the great warrior that you are and imagine my surprise when I see your status screen and see that your race is so special along with your class.

But that is not even the most surprising thing about you.

Your soulbound pet is Mira, the dragon king's daughter, the golden child.

Reports suggest she personally came to help you in this fight.

Your unique position makes you one of the most valuable assets for the Titus clan as you have unprecedented leverage over the mighty dragons who bow to no one.

However, even that is not your most shocking secret because frankly I was blown out of my mind by this point by the amazing specimen that you are.

Your MOST valuable asset is that you are Max Rajput, the brother of Shakuni The Terrifying, the brother-in-law to Naomi rajput and the uncle to Shakuni's sons.

You have leverage with the Won Knight family and the True Elites Kingdom where you are no less than their golden boy.

All these advantages, along with your own excellent battle prowess for your tier, makes even a god like me envious.

I watched your brother fight Thor Odinson, a god probably as strong as Regus Aurelius and demolish him in a one vs one fight to take his life.

That fight shattered my universe view, I've never in my life thought that I as a tier7 warrior had a chance to fight against Regus. However, seeing your brother fight it gave me hope.

Accept my condolences for him, it's a tragedy how Lucifer killed him with trickery.

I'm sure he would have altered the universal balance if he grew a bit more " Vega said as Max was left stumped by his words.

The mask that Max had taken to hide his identity for so long was crumpled by Vega in an instant.

His entire life laid bare before the man, he had utterly stripped and cornered Max in this war of words.

" What happened Max? Feeling speechless?

Feeling regretful that you revealed your information before joining us?

Tch, don't worry, even without all that, your pesky mask can't hide your status bar from my inspect gaze. It's too low level.

In Front of a tier7 or tier8 god, you have no chance of hiding your identity

So do me a favour, remove the mask, look me in the eyes like a man and let's discuss your future ". Vega said as he stood up from his seat and walked back towards his throne, where he sat upright and looked down on Max like the supreme being that he was.

Max clumsily removed his mask, but after taking a deep breath he stared straight back into Vega's eyes with fury.

He was a cornered mouse now, he had nowhere to run, nowhere to hide.

There was no point to being afraid now.

" What do you want from me patriarch Vega? I've never wronged the Titus clan, I have no plans of doing so in the future either " Max said as he made his stance clear

" What do I want ....? Oh I'll tell you what I want Max .... " Vega said with a smile
