Strongest Necromancer System-Chapter 174: Do You Think He Can Defeat Me?

Keith had seen the desperation in Jason’s eyes when Jason said he needed to go home. He had watched the eighteen-year-old boy show more emotion in that one moment than he had shown in all the other times that Keith had seen him combined, and something in Jason’s eyes made Keith feel like fighting for him.

Maybe it was stupid and maybe he had made the wrong decision, but Keith wanted to believe that he was on the right side this time. Keith wasn’t a fool just because he upheld the law more than anyone else. He knew that there were times when the law needed to be put aside because of how complicated a situation was. And in this situation, Keith’s morality aligned more with Jason than it did with the actual law.

Besides, if Keith had blocked Jason’s path back then, Keith knew that it wouldn’t have been a good thing both for Jason and for the government. It would’ve caused a rift between them that was irreparable and Jason would never trust the Enforcers again. So by taking Jason’s side, Keith had saved the relationship between the both of them. If Keith had to sacrifice his own health to ensure someone as powerful as Jason remained on their side, then Keith would do it a thousand times over. Because he believed in the law more than anyone else. And he knew they needed someone like Jason to believe in the law as well.

Keith said all of this to Agiel in short, clipped sentences and he could see the way Agiel’s eyes slowly narrowed in slight confusion. Agiel thought through everything that Keith said with a small hum before she eventually felt a laugh bubble up from inside her. It was a beautiful and soft thing that absolutely betrayed the sheer monstrosity that Agiel was capable of and Keith couldn’t help but admit that Agiel looked very attractive at that moment! If not for the fact that he had experienced it firsthand, Keith would never believe a woman like this was so powerful!

Agiel spoke in a soft voice.

"So that is what you were fighting for. You didn’t want the Enforcers to get on Jason’s bad side, so you made sure we weren’t seen as the villains in his story. You really believe in him that much?"

Keith said nothing in response; he simply gave a small nod, and Agiel’s smile became bloodthirsty once more as she asked,

"Do you think he can defeat me?"

It was a simple question, and if Keith had heard it a few minutes before they started their fight, then he would have had an immediate answer. Agiel was a beast unlike anything he had ever seen. She had the sheer fighting prowess that rivaled any other superhuman in the world and her power was nothing to scoff at. But the most dangerous thing about her was the way she was able to use her Gift in such a brilliant way.

Her Gift was difficult to use because she needed to touch anything she wanted to rupture before she could activate it, but Agiel had mastered how to track the movement of objects down to the millisecond and she was capable of activating her Gift just at the exact moment any object touched her. It was a brilliant Gift that became more dangerous the more she learned about it.

A few minutes ago, Keith would have had no doubt in his mind that Agiel could beat Jason in a fight. But now that Keith had felt her power for himself and he could compare it to what he felt from Jason as well as the beasts he had seen Jason summon without even trying, Keith was no longer sure that she could defeat him.

Keith’s silence was enough to make Agiel’s eyes narrow back into slits. The mere fact that he couldn’t give her an answer told Agiel all that she needed to know, and it didn’t take long before she felt another surge of bloodthirst rising from her heart. She wanted to clash with Jason so badly that it was nearly sickening! Her mind traveled back to the intense moment that she shared with Jason earlier, and she knew that something special had happened between them! They both recognized each other as predators, and Agiel could feel a heat rising in her body as she thought about trading blows with Jason! She badly wanted to meet Jason and see if he felt the same thing! She needed to satisfy this mad desire in her heart!

Agiel reached down and grabbed Keith by his one good arm and Keith released a loud scream of pain as Agiel threw the arm over her shoulder and began to carry him away from the scene of their battle.

Agiel spoke up after a few seconds of silence.

"I still think you’re a fool to have risked your life like that, but I can understand why you did it. You were thinking about the future, so I’ll be lenient this one time and not strip you of your rank. Good work, Lieutenant."

Keith grunted in pain as he forced his words out.

"T-Thank you, commander."

Agiel clicked her tongue at how weak Keith sounded before she spoke:

"But I can’t just let your insubordination go without any punishment, so I hope you have insurance, because you’re paying for all the damages done to the buildings."

Keith groaned.

[Greenville]

[Tobias Grant’s Apartment]

The sound of the news on the television rang through the dark mansion as the reporter gave a rundown of the things that had been happening in Riverdale the past few hours. First, the fight between two members of the Enforcers was shown and they explained that the battle had raged for more than ten minutes and there were no casualties from the fight due to the quick evacuations, but then they switched the news to the image of an enormous dragon as it moved across the sky above Riverdale.

Tobias Grant was sitting on his large couch and leaning towards the TV with an intense gaze. He was naked, except for a small towel covering his crotch, and there was sweat falling from his chin and landing on the ground in front of him.

The reporter on the screen spoke in a professional tone as the image switched to another angle of the dragon.

[... the spectators on the scene claimed that a man was riding on the back of the dragon and we have identified him to most likely be the recent A-Ranked Awakener, Jason Marc...]

’What the hell is this!? A dragon? How the fuck does Jason Marc have a dragon? Did he lie to us about what his actual abilities were? Yes, that’s the only thing that would explain this! And this means that Millicent failed!’

Tobias’ eyes narrowed at the screen as the reporter started talking about how there had been a confrontation between Jason and the director of the SMD branch in Riverdale and Tobias cursed internally. That fucking useless bitch couldn’t even do something like this properly!?

"Hey baby, won’t you come back to bed?"

A voice suddenly came from the side and Tobias turned to see a drop-dead gorgeous woman standing there. She had large breasts that were perky and round, and a thin waist that traveled down into wide hips, thick thighs, and long sexy legs. But the most noticeable feature in her appearance was her dark skin and her hair that was dyed a pure white.

She was completely naked, and she was confident enough in her looks to know she would attract any man. She gave Tobias a sensual look as she leaned against the door and pushed her chest forward to show off her assets more but Tobias didn’t even give her a second glance. He had already lost all interest in her, so he felt nothing.

"I’m not interested. Get your things and get out. All of you."

The girl’s expression changed to one of shock as two other girls appeared from behind her. They were also beautiful women with unbelievable figures, and they both had the same dark skin and white hair as the first woman. They looked at each other in shock and wondered what could have happened.
