Chapter 63 Fear Of

"We're in danger"

The word reverberated in the heart of the people sitting in the room. No one expected the impromptu meeting would be this. They're in danger.

The three looked at each other's faces but no one knew how to respond. This came out of the blue.

Justin looked at their faces but didn't hurry them to say something. He wants them to digest the gravity of the situation.

"As Grandpa Phillip returned," Justin asked, suddenly turning to Merab.

'Yes." She nodded.

"Alright." He sighed in relief and the room descended into another round of silence.

Mack looked at Susan from the corner of his eyes but only to see her lost in thought. He wanted to talk but decided against it and waited for others to talk. But after waiting for a couple of seconds and seeing no one having the intention. He spoke up.

"Can I ask, what type of danger?" He looked at Justin.

Merab and Susan looked at Justin waiting for him to tell them what sort of danger they were in. Because they were already in danger when zombies appeared out of the blue. But it seems those were not the real danger.

"What is the strongest enemy you've ever encountered?" Justin retorted with another question.

"A First Circle Existence zombies." He replied without thinking about it.

"How many?"

"One"

"Do you kill it?"

This time around, he didn't respond. He was just too embarrassed to look at Justin's face.

Susan responded in his potion. "Three of us had to fight together to defeat it." Her voice was cold and calm without any expression on her face.

Justin sighed and creased his brow. He looked at the face of the three of them and didn't know how to tell them of the incoming danger.

'We're too weak compared to those beasts and zombies.' He thought bitterly in his heart.

He stood abruptly and said, "Follow me…." Before he added. "Merab, get Nasir and Nika to join us." With that, he left the room in a large stride.

'',

Merab didn't dare dilly dally. She rushed out of the room to find the duo.

Meanwhile, Mack stood and looked at Susan. Both of them had been childhood friends and they both trusted each other back. For Mack, he didn't entirely believe nor trust Justin.

The previous grievance was still lingering in his heart. He had never been looked down upon like how Justin treated him. He plans to exact his revenge.

"What do you think?" He asked, looking at her.

"We can't say anything until we find out what danger we are in. Also, we need to plan our steps carefully not lead to our doom."

"Indeed. We can't trust this barbaric young man." He said righteously.

Susan raised her brow slightly and left the room without uttering a word. On the ground floor, the threaded people that were yet to become a First Circle existence looked at the leader and other powerful people leaving the building.

They frowned and wondered what the hell was going on when they realized almost all the powerful people in the building were leaving.

"Where are they going?" A voice asked among the group.

"Shut up and mind your freaking business." A voice snapped.

Outside the building, two beasts lay lifelessly on the ground. Justin stops in front of the biggest beast among the two. He looked at the people behind him and asked.

"Have you ever seen such a gigantic beast before.?"

Gasped.

The group widened their eyes and stared at the giant beast in shock. It has only been a couple of weeks since the world was in chaos. How could the beast evolve to such an extent?

"Do you see that one?" He pointed to the dog like a beast.

"That was killed by Grandpa Philip and with the look of things, he almost died. Right?"

"Yes," Merab answered while her gaze was fixed on the enormous beast in front of her. She didn't know how she would have reacted if the beast was alive.

"This beast that almost killed Grandpa Philip was a First Circle existence. But this…." He paused and stared at the faces of the few most powerful people in the camp.

"Second Circle Existence."

Heaven!

The heart of the people was in their throats. They stared at the beast in front of them in shock and nervousness. If they were to encounter a Second Circle existence. What would happen to them…. They all knew the answers. It's only one word.

Death

"With my understanding of its strength. All you combined together won't be able to kill it." He dropped another bombshell.

What!

Now, Susan couldn't hide her expression anymore. She was flabbergasted. She stared at the young man who obviously killed the beast telling them they were weak and useless.

"Are you looking down on us because you're stronger than us?" Her cold voice resounded in the icy wind.

Justin raised his brow and looked at her, asking with a raspy voice. "Why would I do that?"

"To boost your prestige or whatnot." She fired back.

"Do you think I care about prestige or fame? It means nothing to me other than to survive. That's my only goal right now. Every other thing is unnecessary." He replied calmly.

"You may think I'm looking down on you. But with my capability, I can deduce you haven't unlocked your core power yet. And if you haven't unlocked your core power. You can't defeat an ordinary First Circle existence."

"I— "

"Please don't interrupt me. We have more pressing matters than to care about prestige or whatnot."

A frown appeared on her face and her face became colder. Her dislike for Justin was raised by another bar. Yet, she keeps quiet.

"I didn't call you here because of this beast. There is more…."

There is more!?

The people trembled in fear and looked at the cold desolate street in fear. What is going on in the shadows? They thought in panic.

"I barely escape with my life."

What!

"I didn't kill it. It's still alive and I know it will come back for revenge. Not against me but every human. Because it is not just a beast. But a variant and not just an ordinary variant but a Demonic at that." Justine finish his monologue

"And I forgot to add this. It is preparing to cross the threshold to Third Circle Existence."
