Omnipotent Overlord

Chapter 367: Halfbreed



Galt smiled, “It’s a miracle a halfbreed like you can do even this much.”

“Thank you, lord, for your praise.” The halfbreed said.

Dorado took the charmed Drows out of the cage. Charmed by the Soul Hex Technique, their minds were empty, only obeying the user’s order.

“Devils sure are terrifying.”

Looking at the glazed eyes, like puppets, Galt felt fear inside.

Dorado said, “Who among the ten strong races aren’t?”

Galt nodded.

“If brother had come from one of them, you’d have been much stronger now.”

“This comparison is pointless. I am content with who I am. Just think, what if I were from snow people, or Gnoll?”

“Ha-ha-ha, brother’s so funny.”

“I’m only saying it’s possible. Why do we always let our mind wander to the good things?”

“You are just too smart to out-talk you.”

“Birth is only the start. While it is unclear who in the world could reach the top. I mean, the ten strong races have a resounding name for millions of years.”

“More or less.”

“But which of them birthed a God Emperor? Each generation claims they can become emperors, but it never came to pass.

“While, funny enough, it was those no name races who got an emperor. Take those feeble humans, they had a total of five God Emperors. And from those demons, even snow rabbits had one.

“Regarding birth, which of these races can match the ten strong races? Yet what does time tell us?”

Galt was stunned.

“Dorado, do you know why I enjoy being your partner? Because you’re just too damn smart.”

“There are many others smarter than me.”

“But to me, you are the smartest in the world.”

“Ha-ha-ha, you often say that.”

“No, that’s the truth.”

Galt laughed, “Thanks.”

Dorado smiled, “Right back at you.”

“Ha-ha.”

Galt was the commander of the Endless Night’s hub. Dorado was his second. But they had one secret.

The two were bastards. Galt was born from the secret union of Golden Armored race’s Sacred King and an average Silver Armor alien woman. If not for Galt having a golden body, he would’ve never stepped foot in Golden Armored race’s domain. 

Dorado had it worse. His mother was a call girl and, till now, he had yet to know who the father was. 

Dorado had suffered from scorn in his youth. If not for his father finding out he was a variant Hexamand, he would’ve wasted his life in a brothel.

From then on, Dorado and Galt met, slowly growing on each other.

Before he was 15, Dorado had just four arms, but afterwards, his blood awoke and sprouted four more, giving him an extra pair over the average Hexamand. 

It wasn’t just simply adding another pair. Hexamand race’s potential related to the number of arms. Dorado had such a great power and sharp mind because he had the upper hand on his fellow Hexamands.

“Lord, look, that is our queen!

“Why are we Drows so ugly? It’s not for the lack of sun, but because this wretched queen hogged the Life Lake’s waters for herself and let us become these hideous things!

“Lord, I have one request. After you take the Life Pearl, allow me to drink from the Life Lake.”

“Obey me and you shall have your fill.”

The one-eared Drizzt led the way and soon the party arrived at the Life Lake beneath Endless Night city.

Although underground, the edges of the lake were bright, like daylight.

Drizzt wasn’t lying. A blond beauty laid in the center of the lake, floating on its waters. She held in her hands a blue and sparkling pearl. 

Galt exclaimed, “The Life Pearl!”

Dorado pulled him back, “Stop, let them go first.”

The halfbreed ordered the Drows.

Kiki~

The instant they entered the water, a cacophony of sounds erupted. Blood bats appeared out of nowhere and attacked the Drows.

They bit the ears of all the Drows in moments. 

Drizzt shuddered. Now he knew why his ear was gone.

“My people, leave, don’t get near!”

Whoosh~

A charming voice swept through the Drows and the Life Pearl shined in the queen’s arms, pushing back the bats.

Life Pearl’s light sent the Drows back on the shores.

Galt laughed, “Hey, one-ear, see that? Your queen didn’t hurt you, but protect you even in her slumber.”

Drizzt paled and wailed, “My hatred for her hasn’t subsided. I hate her for not waking up, for playing dead!”

“Go!”

Bang!

Galt hoisted Drizzt by the neck and threw him in the lake.

“Since I said it, then here sate your thirst!

“I abhor traitors!”

Drizzt landed in the water and sank swiftly.

Soon, blood appeared and Drizzt was gone…

“What’s going on?”

Dorado pulled Galt back, “The waters are strange.”

Galt shouted, “Halfbreed, order them to go further in!”

“Understood!”

The halfbreed chanted and the hundred earless Drows entered the lake.

Kiki~

The blood bats appeared again, but this time the queen’s voice didn’t came, nor did the Life Pearl shine.

Pu~

The savage bats took merely a minute to devour the hundred Drows.

Luckily, these bats only attacked those that entered the lake’s waters. Galt and the others on the shores were unharmed.

Galt said, “Bats above and a strange water below. How do we get the Life Pearl?”
