BXBX NOVEL Chapter 163 Establishing Dominance
The noble\'s complain fell into deaf ears as everyone gradually descended into panic. Amidst all of these confusions, Grace and Juliet stood beside each other, Juliet looked like a budding flower atop a hill while Grace looked graceful and divine, paired with the silver-hair that flowed smoothly down her waist like mercury and her attractive and symmetrical features, the eyes of the precocious boys focused on her.
"Woah, it\'s the first time that I saw a someone that has a silver hair, I wonder where she came from..."
"Yer, goddamned right man, look at those curves, I wonder if she\'ll marry me if I propose to her..."
Their mumbles didn\'t escape Dan\'s perception and he leaked some of his killing intent, sending all of the brats away. Dan\'s display of jealousy made Natalie chuckle at the side as she said, "Dear, could it be that you\'re jealous of some brats? Don\'t worry, I guarantee you that Grace will never leave you..."
Dan glared at her which made her chuckle again.
"Silence!"
A fierce voice resonated above the skies and everyone turned their heads towards the origin of the voice. Floating in mid-air, a white-bearded old man clad in the robes of the Paradyne Academy calmly observed the commotion below.
His expression indifferent and he lightly coughed before continuing, "As you may all have noticed, this is the Outer Sect Disciple\'s Region. But as you can see, there\'s nothing here, right?"
Everyone nodded their heads towards his question and he continued, "Well since there\'s nothing on this plain and you do need your own residence to live, there\'s only one thing that you can do, and that is to build your own residence from scratch..."
"It doesn\'t matter what method you use as long as you\'re successful in the end and no one dies because of your actions, however, if someone did die because of excessive violence or blatant targeting, then you will also suffer the same fate."
He warned and the disciples mostly aged at ten years old or so mumbled with each other, apprehension visible on their faces. Dan clicked his tongue, the Elder\'s proposal about building one\'s house by scratch would definitely attract trouble, after all, there were thousands of disciples and the land merely spanned for several kilometers, it couldn\'t possibly house everyone, particularly, these kids that were used to living inside a huge space.
"As for finding the necessary items in building your houses, you can take a look at your right and see a huge forest where you can build your house, but proceed with caution, that forest is infested with beasts that could easily kill all of you..."
His words horrified the innocent children among the commoners, but those from noble families merely sneered, with their arsenal of talismans and artifacts, why would they be afraid of mere beasts?
"And also, the use of talisman and artifacts is forbidden, this is a competition to sort out the diamonds among the pebbles, and if you failed to do so, you will forever be branded as a failure..." The Elder lifted a small smile on his face before disappearing into thin air.
Juliet rolled her sleeves and along with Grace, they dashed towards the forest bringing with them the tools that the Academy provided. Holding Natalie on her waist, Dan sent the two off with a smile and best wishes in his heart.
"Listen, all of you commoners! This outer part of the Forest is now under my jurisdiction! My name is Zack and my noble surname is Duterte! I will consider it as treason if you dare to trespass my territory!" A neatly dressed boy exclaimed above a tree branch, beside him were other youths from noble families and they all sneered at the commoners down below.
"Shut the fuck up! We\'re gonna get the wood that we need here!" A commoner youth exploded in anger, walking towards a nearby tree, he lifted his ax and hacked at the tree trunk but before his ax could land, the same youth that exclaimed earlier arrived from his side and kicked at his torso.
The poor boy coughed a mouthful of blood and immediately lost his consciousness. Such display of arrogance and ruthlessness scared the commoners, but they also didn\'t dare to head deeper into the forest, after all, the Elder said that the forest was infested with numerous bloodthirsty beasts.
Juliet was amidst this commotion and she puffed her cheeks out, standing tall along with Grace, she pointed at the jet-black haired young man and scolded, "You cannot be so greedy, brother!" She pointed at him with her finger and paired with her puffed cheeks, Juliet looked adorable and harmless.
Her voice rang loud and clear and everyone descended into silence. The commoners stared at Juliet and Grace in pity, noble families frequently oppressed the commoners and they knew the fates of those that dared to oppose their authority.
The jet-black haired young man crossed his arms together and stared at Juliet in amusement, as someone born with a silver spoon in his mouth, he never experienced scoldings and experiencing one and from an adorable young girl at that made him feel amused.
Staring at Juliet\'s slender frame and her smooth skin that looked as tender as an infant, the members of the noble families knew that she could never compare to their young master whose muscles alone could crush an elephant.
"I cannot be so greedy, you say? I\'m not being greedy, I\'m just taking what belongs to me..." He arrogantly declared but no one expressed their objections. Grace knitted her eyebrows, but as a mortal, she cannot possibly defeat the young man.
Juliet wore the same expression and she exclaimed, "Mama told me that someone as arrogant as you should be knocked down a notch and taught the immensity of heaven and earth!" Her severe words sounded like a harmless warning when paired with the gentle tone that she inherited from Natalie.
However, Grace who had an inkling about how terrifying Natalie could become in a battle became nervous if Juliet would be the same. Staring at the young man with a bitter smile on her face, Grace could only hope that everything won\'t escalate too quickly.
"Knock me down a notch?" The young man laughed out loud along with his subordinates as if they heard the joke of the century. Juliet knitted her eyebrows, "Brother, why are you laughing? Do you think that Mama\'s words are a joke?"
The young man stopped his laughter and with his eyes shining in amusement he turned to Juliet and said, "Oh, so you\'re saying that you\'re not joking? Come on, look at your skinny frame, I bet that you can\'t even kill a fly..." He mocked, but as soon as he finished his words, Juliet\'s figure suddenly disappeared, causing everyone to stare in confusion.
"I\'ll follow Mama\'s words and knock you down a notch!" Juliet\'s fierce voice echoed and the world before him violently rotated followed by a sharp pain that assaulted his waist. He screamed like a pig being butchered and the spectators stared at Juliet in horror, especially those from the noble families.
Juliet stared at them in anger and no matter how much they begged for mercy. Juliet still knocked them down on the ground, leaving them unconscious before skipping and hopping towards Grace\'s direction.
"Mama Grace, did Juliet do good?" Juliet\'s expression beamed and Grace gulped a mouthful of saliva before rubbing her head and saying, "J-Juliet did good, it\'s a good thing that you did that so that they won\'t be so arrogant anymore..."
Juliet nodded her head in approval and the oppressed commoners stared at the two with widened eyes and mouth. The terrifying little girl which instantly defeated those bastards from the noble families could actually act so sweet and adorable? What\'s going on?
At this moment, none of the Outer Sect Disciples dared to offend Grace and Juliet, and after profusely thanking the two, they went on and collected their materials for their house. The poor boys from the noble families laid on the ground with gritted teeth and holding their pain.
The indignant children from the commoner household even spat at them as the members of the noble families venomously stared at Juliet\'s direction in hatred and anger.
Nevertheless, Juliet and Grace established their dominance, annihilated their opposition and even acquired the hearts of the public. When Juliet returned to her beloved Mama Natalie and Papa Dan. The two were shocked to see her holding so many beautifully wrapped gifts and when Grace told them about what happened inside the forest, the two froze for a moment.
