In fact, from the very beginning, Lei Gangset had no intention of getting angry with Kema.
Lei Gang firmly believed in the original prophecy regarding his most satisfied 'son'.
While his wife was pregnant with Kema Set, the "oracle" from the great saint of the church made Lei Gang extremely confident that he would be the one who could change the country and lead the Set family to the top.
So if there is an accident during the journey, it will definitely not be Kema's problem.
After getting up, Lei Gangset slowly walked towards the bookshelf against the wall in the bedroom. He used his big hand to press the sixth heavy book in the second row.
The books pressed into the bookshelf successfully touched the mechanism embedded in the wall. With the roar of mechanical gears, the entire bookshelf turned 180 degrees, revealing the pure golden box stored behind the wall.
"You are missing the Millennium Artifact!"
"A thousand-year-old artifact!" Kevin was secretly shocked.
I didn't expect to learn about the Millennium Artifact and the Millennium Building Blocks that can replace souls from You Ling today. And that night, I heard this term from my father again.
Is this just a pure coincidence?
Kevin remained silent and tried his best to hide his surprise.
"A thousand-year-old artifact?"
Kema could probably understand it. After all, Irena had been ambushed by the Millennium Wheel of Wisdom before, and the building blocks hanging on Aisha's chest were obviously the same type of accessories.
"After I came back, I looked up relevant information and finally confirmed that the little girl from the Carlos family is definitely the owner of the artifact Millennium Block. It is the ornament hanging on her chest. But I didn't expect that the Millennium Block itself could bring such great power. Even you, Kema, can't defeat it."
Huge power?
Kevin didn't care in his heart.
The Millennium Brick brought only the soul of a duelist named You Ling, and it did not have the terrifying power that Lei Gangset had imagined.
Kema lost the duel, but not because of the artifact, but simply because she lost to Yu Zero.
But Lei Gang doesn't think so.
Opening the golden box hidden behind the bookshelf, Lei Gangset took out a tool with the same golden eyes printed on it.
"We must not let that small family get ahead of themselves because of the artifact. It's time to take it out. One of the artifacts that the Set family has sealed for generations. I think if it's you, Kema, you will definitely be able to control this power from the abyss."
At this moment, holding in the hand of Lei Gangset is a divine artifact shrouded in ominous darkness - the Millennium Scepter.
Chapter 162: Old thing, I have tolerated you for a long time!
One of the sacred artifacts that has been sealed by the Set family for generations, the Millennium Scepter.
The reason why it was sealed by the family. When it was taken out of the sealed box, the ominous dark aura emerging from the inside of the tin staff was enough to show how dangerous this thing was.
Just like the Millennium Wheel of Wisdom that Irene brought back, just one glance was enough to make Kema feel the revenge and resentment as if it came from the deepest part of hell.
"Father, is it too early to unlock the seal that has been passed down through our family?"
Kema's first reaction was resistance. Considering Irena's previous experience, he found it hard to believe that this thousand-year-old artifact filled with an ominous aura would bring any improvement to the duel itself.
"Too early? No! The timing is perfect!"
With his sturdy hands tightly grasping the thousand-year-old tin staff, Lei Gang looked out the window with a firm gaze.
Opposite the study and bedroom is the Fu Sheng Duel Academy at night.
Under the bright lights, what Lei Gangset saw was the other side hidden beneath the prosperous scene.
"It has been quiet for too long. Under the leadership of the self-satisfied Caesar royal family, this country has lost the possibility of continued development. The decline of Fu Sheng Academy and Fusion in recent years clearly proves this point."
The decline that Lei Gang was referring to must be the three major academy ranking competitions held in the Holy Land of Elves in recent years.
Every country is very clear that young duelists are the most important force for the country's future development.
In this war that indirectly determines the future potential of each country, Fusheng Academy and the Kingdom of Livolden always come at the bottom.
Even so, the royal family, and even other large family forces, turned a blind eye to this result and had no sense of crisis at all.
"Although it is called the Three Kingdoms, Livolden has been left far behind by the other two countries. The continent has been peaceful and prosperous for nearly a hundred years, but the essence is still the imperial forces that are ready to make a move."
The elven continent has been at peace for a hundred years on the surface. Not only Lei Gangset, but everyone knows it. This is because the three major countries are equally powerful, and a delicate balance has been achieved like a miracle.
However, this balance has been slowly changing in recent years with the gradual decline of the Kingdom of Livolden, represented by the Fusheng Academy.
Once the point that can maintain the balance is broken, there is no doubt that the flames of war will once again sweep across the entire continent. In the empire, the big families that have been quiet for a hundred years are not short of ambitious people.
This is also the most fundamental reason why Fu Sheng Academy has been trying its best to show the academy's duel strength to the outside world in recent years, especially this year.
If the Duel Academy of Fusion Summoning and the Kingdom of Levolden continue to decline like this, Levolden will be replaced and disappear in the eyes of the other two major countries, or some countries that have newly emerged special summoning forms and are not yet considered major powers.
“It is no exaggeration to say that this is a time of crisis for the survival of the country!”
Changing the subject, Lei Gangset pointed the thousand-year-old tin staff in his hand at Kema.
"And you, Kema, are the one who can change the future of this country. You must lead the Set family, save the declining Levalden, and then drag the self-satisfied royal family down from a position that does not belong to them."
"Father..."
Kevin and Kema also heard Lei Gang mention this for the first time. No wonder he specially sent away the irrelevant people in the mansion.
Although Lei Gangset has a bad temper and is arrogant, as a "national lion", he values his country more than anyone else.
Any means are acceptable, including starting a revolution, or even using the power of the darkness of the abyss sealed in a thousand-year-old artifact.
If one wants to fundamentally change this declining country, just like the revolution in which Caesar overthrew the tyrant Nero three hundred years ago, one must sacrifice blood and corpses to achieve nirvana.
"The power that the Set family has sealed for generations is prepared for this moment. According to ancient records, even gods can control it if they possess a thousand-year-old artifact!"
"god!"
When Kami was mentioned, Kemaset's eyes changed obviously.
She recalled the last round of the duel with Aisha Carlos today. Winged Kuritama, who inherited the power of the God of Despair, shattered the barrier between the weak and the strong and ended the duel with one punch.
"The little girl from the Carlos family is able to use the God Card, which must be related to the Millennium Divine Artifact itself. But she doesn't seem to have truly mastered the power of God."
After all, in today's duel, the God of Despair Antihope was not officially summoned, but only used the effect of [Berserker Shatter] to show its top combat power as a single card with 5000 attack power.
However, this level alone cannot be considered as complete mastery of the God Card.
"Kema, you are a special existence. If it were you, you would be able to perfectly control the Millennium Staff and the God Card. Time is running out for the Set family and this country. The transformation of Nirvana is imminent."
The temptation of great power, the temptation of controlling gods, and the temptation of climbing to the pinnacle of national status.
If it were the previous Kaymaseth, the Kaymaseth who pursued the ultimate power of cards in duels, he would definitely choose to accept the Millennium Staff resolutely even if it meant escaping into the darkness of the abyss.
But after today's duel with Aisha Carlos.
("Witness me, Kemaset. Whether you are weak or strong, the shackles of fate that bind you can be broken!")
The words of that extremely 'weak' girl could shake her heart more than any advice from a strong man.
Kaymaseth, who had always been pursuing power and the ultimate in all cards, failed so completely today in front of extremely weak monsters and extremely cheap spell cards.
For the first time, Kema hesitated in his heart as to whether he should continue to pursue more powerful strength.
Is this really the right way to become a strong person?
"No, Father, please allow me to refuse!"
"Nani?"
Lei Gangset's brows were furrowed and trembling violently.
This was the first time in his life that Kemaset rejected him and denied his orders.
"I'll give you one more chance to choose, Kema. Answer me!"
"Father, I want to find the right path to become a strong person on my own!"
The second time he answered, Kema's tone seemed even more determined.
"You're the rebel!"
The anger that had been pent up until now was finally ignited by Kema's behavior of defying him.
The national lion's belated rage arrived, and he swung his iron fist at the 'son' he was once most satisfied with.
However, this punch was blocked by his other son, whom he had always looked down upon.
Standing between Kema and Leigang, Kevin used all his strength to hold Leigang Set's wrist. The wrestling between the two sides, with veins bulging in their arms, made both sides unable to move.
"Kevin, you bastard!"
"Old thing, I have tolerated you for a long time. It's time for you to accept the facts... The rebellious period has finally come!"
"You want a fight too, Kevin?"
"Looking for a fight? No! The philosophy of the Set family has always been to respect strength. You said that, right? Then let's decide it in a duel, you old thing abandoned by the times! Let's see who should beat whom!"
This chapter has not been reviewed
"You mean to decide by duel?!"
Being challenged to a duel by his "rebellious" son, Lei Gang, who was already furious, ignored Kevin's disrespectful behavior of calling him "old thing".
"Of course! Using strength to decide right and wrong, isn't that the legend of the Set family? Or are you afraid?"
The veins on his forehead bulged further. This was the first time that Lei Gangset had been provoked like this since he became the Duke. And the object of the provocation was his useless second son, whom he had always looked down upon.
"You are so brave, Kevin. You dare to challenge me to a duel! How do you think I got the title of the Lion of my country?"
Lei Gang, who possesses great strength, crushes all opponents with absolute power in every duel. The Grand Duke, who is like a roaring lion and towers over other duelists, is called the Lion of the Country by Caesar himself.
"Don't mention your former bravery, old man!"
Grabbing Lei Gang's wrist and forcing his arm down, Kevin showed no sign of backing down.
"I said you can't keep up with the times. How come, as a lion, you would be afraid if your son, who is like a wild dog, bites you?"
"Since you insist on choosing a dead end, I will grant your wish! But don't think that after provoking me, you can pretend nothing happened. Recklessness will have a price to pay, Kevin. If you lose the duel, get out of Set's house, and don't even think about staying in Fusheng Academy!"
"I accept this condition!"
He risked his family's life, his students' life, and his duelist's life.
It was extremely ironic that after Kevin had said that he would never let Carlos Aisha off and that weaklings should leave the academy during his battle to be expelled from school, he was now involved in the battle to be expelled from school again.
However, this time it was about his own battle to drop out of school.
"Kevin..."
He stared blankly at the figure standing in front of him, protecting him.
Is this still the younger brother who always followed behind me, compared himself with me in everything, and got frustrated every time because he was beaten?
In today's duel between Kevin and Caesar, even though it went against Lei Gang's will, he still managed to tie with the Electronic Dragon. Kema vaguely felt it.
My younger brother has really changed. He has transformed into a truly ambitious and responsible man, a duelist who can truly face everything with his own will.
"Kevin, let me take on this duel!"
My younger brother has already decided to make a change, so how can I hesitate?
And as the eldest son, this is the battle he must face. How could Kema be willing to let his younger brother take the risk of dropping out of school because of this?
"Let me challenge you, Thunder Steel Set!"
Based on the most basic upbringing, Kema did not call his father "old thing".
But for Kema, calling him by his name was enough to signify rebellion.
"They rebelled, one by one! Good!"
With a roar, Lei Gangset's deep and powerful roar seemed to be heard throughout the mansion.
"You're in the rebellious phase, right? Today I'm going to show my true strength and teach you two a lesson. You both want to challenge me, right? Then you two should fight together!"
-------
Inside the Set Mansion, there is a duel arena that is in no way inferior to the spacious and luxurious one in Fusheng Academy.
Although it was already midnight, the dueling arena in Sete Mansion was still brightly lit and even quite lively.
For no other reason than to hear that Master Lei Gang was going to duel with the two young masters, the servants, maids, cooks and housekeepers in the mansion all got out of bed and wanted to witness the outcome.
Lei Gangset did not deliberately avoid this duel.
In his opinion, this was an act of establishing his authority by teaching his son a lesson, and it didn't matter even if the servants in the house saw it.
