We're wrong! We couldn't. We shouldn't. We mustn't!\" Ash said in a hurry and banged his head against the floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Correct answer.\" The young man smiled in appreciation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ash's shoulders relaxed and he was about to breathe out when a golden light flashed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The captain's two arms were severed and blood flowed out of his shoulders like water bursting out of pipes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He didn't answer.\" The young man clicked his tongue in regret and waved to the two men.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They expertly checked every nook and corner of the ship, taking away anything and everything valuable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ash kept staring at his uncle with nervousness the whole time. He only came to his senses when they took away his storage ring and left the ship.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Uncle!\" Ash screamed and rushed for the emergency kits. To his dismay, even the basic healing potions were taken away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"C-Cough!\" The man with no arms coughed as he lay in a pool of blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His injuries were closing but not fast enough. The energy in those attacks was rending his efforts to prevent further bleeding useless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He's a level 8 Body Awakener. But at this rate, he wouldn't survive for one more hour.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"W-Wait a minute! We'll go to the spaceport!\" Ash screamed as he tore his own shirt and bandaged the wounds, slowing down the bleeding as much as he could.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The captain lay powerlessly as Ash started the spaceship.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He regretted being so confident to think he could even escape the Havos pirates. But at least…at least, he'd be aliv—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Screech!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The door was once again opened forcibly and the familiar footsteps rang again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Um, thinking back, while your answer was correct,\" The young havoc scratched his cheek. \"I never asked you. Isn't it also a sin to answer out of your turn?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"W-Wha…\" Ash stared at the young man, likely a teenager and someone his age, with a look of absurdity and fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What does this madman even want?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ah, the fear…I can smell it.\" The young havoc took a step forward and sniffed like a hungry beast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ash shivered and instinctively moved closer to his uncle. But feeling the warm blood tickle his skin, he realized that their roles were reversed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gulping down his fear, he shielded his uncle and said with trembling lips. \"P-Please ask.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is our route, if you travel this path, you have to pay half of your goods.\" The young havoc thinned his lips. \"Is just another half enough of a punishment for deceiving me, Natchez, the future patriarch of Havocs?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ash's face paled and his breath stopped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Seems like you know the correct answer.\" Natchez's lips curled up. \"Spill it out.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A tense silence ensued.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Natchez frowned slightly and a golden light lit up behind him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ash felt like he fell into a freezer. His hands grew cold, his vision blurry and his throat dry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Spill. It. Out.\" Natchez spat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ash gritted his teeth and stared at his uncle for one last time. Then, he opened his lips and said. \"O-One—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—BOOM!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Something crashed into the golden spaceship nearby and it exploded into pieces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young havoc as well as the two men with him tensed up and stared at it with confused gazes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In that numbing silence, an annoyed voice finally sounded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"0.00001% margin of error, my ass! I crashed into a fucking plane!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My ship…\" Natchez finally muttered in a heartbreaking voice before his eyes bulged in anger and he snarled at his underlings. \"Why didn't you stop him? \"It's my father's gift, a premium customized model, not your factory model, fuckers!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two Havocs looked at each other in confusion before one, an old man sporting a golden beard, stepped forward. \"The space fluctuation was too sudden to react.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh yeah?\" Natchez sneered. \"We'll see it after we return.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old havoc's face paled and he shut up like a puppet. The havoc tribe didn't have a very lenient justice system.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The squad should've already captured him by now.\" The younger havoc guard spoke up, trying to rescue his senior. \"The one who did this should beg for death.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He succeeded as the young master's attention turned back to the scene of the explosion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While his ship exploded, the other two were intact. The pirate squads from each ship broke into the smoke, debris, and fire at full force to catch the criminal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Netchaz smirked when he sensed that they all surrounded this new 'presence'. But his smirk broke when a violent shockwave suddenly swept out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two spaceships nearby were literally blown away into a few miles while the pirates that entered were all thrown into space, each with a twisted limb or two.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The smoke had cleared and the debris disappeared, revealing the perpetrator.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a young humanoid male. His hair was black, and so were his eyes. A very handsome face, but even more catchy was the unbridled, almost ridiculous confidence he exuded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Netchaz disliked him for that more than even blowing up his spaceship.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That look in his eyes…it was something he had and only he must have. No one else should dare to have that look and courage in his presence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man turned to him and their eyes met.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a split second, Netchaz felt a chill down his spine, as if he's dropped in a freezer before his body suddenly started sweating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I come in peace.\" Varian raised his hands in a harmless gesture.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right when his words were finished, some parts of the spaceship that were blown away caught fire and exploded, almost killing a nearby havoc member.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"…I didn't mean it.\" Varian insisted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An unconscious havoc member bumped into a sharpenel moving at high speed. It pierced right through his chest, just beside his heart, narrowly missing from killing him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A-Accidents, haha. I do not intend any har—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>BOOM!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two spaceships collided with each other and sparks flew.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian was speechless and felt the deep malice of the world. But to prove his innocence, he still insisted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I really came in peace.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1033,"2026-06-06T07:58:40.804Z",1,"novelbin.me","45989d03904c011ece24407692bcc7affa6620e8887073dcb160bf72190fd8f7","divine-path-system-chapter-1086","divine-path-system-chapter-1084",1773,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fdivine-path-system-cover.jpg"]
