Chapter 274: Dark side of the Force

The blessed ones of the Hyu family were amazed at the sudden confidence that the leader of these people of the Khan family displayed.

'Why did he get confident so suddenly? Does this guy still not know how strong all families are?' The woman thought.

'They say that calf calves are not afraid of tigers, probably these people must think that because they are so powerful in the Khan family, no one in other families is strong enough to compete with them.' The leader of the people of the Hyu family thought arrogantly.

"Very well, arena battles will start in two hours, I will be waiting for your fabulous performance there." The Hyu family leader said with a smile.

After the blessed Hyu family left, the bearded man said happily. "Michael, that was a good thing to do! Let's show those blessed ones from other families that we in the Khan family are not easy people to provoke!"

But while the bearded man was excited about the battle, the other blessed ones were not so happy. In fact, many were quite concerned if they would really succeed in the upcoming battle, after all, they were aware that their growth was slightly affected after the most powerful blessed in the family could no longer get resources for them.

But like a good leader, Michael looked at the blessed with an excited smile on his face and said calmly. "Guys, are you worried? I think you missed a very important factor in our team."

"A very important factor in our team?" A confused blessed asked.

"What do you mean by that, leader? We will be fighting the blessed elite of other families, not ordinary elites, but true elites that rank at the top of the C Rank of other families..." A woman said a little discouraged.

"Yes, as much as we are also considered elites, we know that we are not as powerful as our family's blessed picos, at most we are among the top 10 invasion teams. And our opponents are probably among the top 3 teams in each family. Even if the number isn't that far off, but we know the difference in strength is far greater than we could make up for." One man said much more discouraged than the rest of the team.

Upon hearing this man's words, the blessed others also shared that thought. They knew they were powerful, but their opponents were even more so. Assuming their average strength was 30% - 40% away to reach Rank B, their opponents probably had an average strength of 40% - 50%, which was a big margin.

And most importantly, team leaders must have a strength of at least 60% - 70% away for Rank B...

But Michael's next words confused them. "Well, you know one thing I always heard while growing up as blessed? That people with space blessings can fight blessed ones from above, and people with flying blessings can fight blessed ones above. the role of a blessed much more powerful than classification itself, can you tell me what all these things have in common and that it relates to us?"

Hearing Michael's questions left the blessed initially confused, as they also heard it a lot, but never had a chance to confirm whether this was true or not, as people with this type of blessing were very rare, but on second thought, when they heard about blessed with space blessings they thought of a person, when they heard about blessed with flying blessings they thought of a person, and when they heard about blessed with spellcasting blessings they thought of a person, and oddly enough, just now they they realized that all these defying blessings were united in that same person, and that person was sitting there beside them, and that he would also participate in this battle with them.

"Noah!" The shy young healer on the team finally demonstrated the thinking people were finally building.

"Yes! Noah is a very powerful blessed one, who even managed to fight Rank B monsters and get away with it. This time we won't fight Rank B monsters, but just blessed Rank C monsters, don't you think our chances of victory are much bigger now?" Michael asked with a big smile on his face as he looked at the staff on the team.

Finally they felt confident. As much as they knew their overall level wasn't as high as the other teams, but they had a wildcard among them, Noah. That blessed young man they met this morning showed many miracles during the fortress, and that alone was enough to shake their belief of talent.

As they had only met Noah today, during the confrontation with the Hyu family, because of years of development in the Khan family and the recent months of isolation the family had had, they unconsciously ignored Noah and just considered themselves as ordinary blessed, but remember how powerful this 20 year old was, they finally realized that their chances of winning were much higher now.

"Of course, I will not force you to participate in this arena battle. As we always do, I will propose a vote. Each person can decide whether or not to participate in the arena battle, if 10 people agree, we will participate, but if 5 people disagree , we will refuse and go back to the family without a fight. But before the vote, take into account the opinion of the Khan family, and that this time we are not just fighting for ourselves, but also fighting for the family's honor. this battle, but if we do well, the elders in the family will probably have a good opinion of us, maybe even give us back the essences we'll bet, and if we win, who doesn't want 7 essences to get stronger? several months' work just for winning such a simple battle, isn't this a good opportunity to increase our strength?"

Michael's passionate speech touched these people's hearts. The blesseds in the outer circle of the team thought they could be invited to the inner circle depending on the outcome of that arena, while the blessed in the outer circle thought this was a good opportunity to get more merit points in the family and receive some extra essences.

At that point, when Michael proposed the vote, the team got 13 votes in favor, and only one person abstained from voting. Noah didn't want to influence these people to do something they didn't want to do, and since he just joined the team today, he felt he should leave it to themselves to decide what they were going to do. So disregarding Noah's vote, the team made a unanimous decision that they would participate in the battle in the arena, which was very favorable for them.

As Michael delivered the inspirational speech, Noah noted how well this leader of their team spoke, and that that kind of leadership aura was essential. Especially for him who in the future would probably lead a great army, Lucifer's demons from hell. Having that kind of attitude would make things so much easier. Since people could not always be convinced with force.

Even if Noah was Lucifer's descendant, only low-ranking demons like the imps would follow his commands absolutely without even questioning his orders.

Of course, the demons would still have to follow Noah's orders because he was the leader of hell in the future, but following orders because they were obligated to do so, and following orders because they believed it was right were two completely different things.

While those who followed orders because they were obligated would still fight on the battlefield, they wouldn't be too confident while they did. But those who believed it was the right thing to do would follow orders and even die for it without a second thought, as there would be no regrets in their hearts.

Noah was a blessed loner, used to dealing alone with things that happened, so he hadn't developed a good way to lead people, that aura of truth like Michael had was something Noah had yet to develop on his own.

That would be a difficult thing to develop while continuing to work alone, so Noah thought about slowly starting to build a team for himself.

He couldn't use common blesseds for that, as in a short time the difference in strength between Noah and those blessed would be very big, but he wasn't helpless in this matter, he could give systems to trusted people, making the growth of these people be as explosive as his, and with the two years left for Noah to develop, he felt that that time would be enough for that.

For now he's just been content with finding talent and possibly bringing them to the "dark side of the force".
