Chereads / I Inherited A Dream System / Chapter 31 - Meeting Of Evil (Part 2)

Chapter 31 - Meeting Of Evil (Part 2)

The seventeen year old Silas Gravestone sits on a comfortable couch, texting on his phone before the twin doors of his room swing open, and six people enter.

Silas Gravestone: Welcome... Have a seat. (Silas says as he motions for them to sit on the plastic chairs)

Milady Benson: Whose the brat? (Milady asks in anger, not liking his attitude at all)

"This is the Young Master! Show some respect!" (The older man snaps at her, now standing next to Silas)

Susie Walters: Young master? (Susie thought to herself, wondering what this means)

Silas Gravestone: It's okay, Harry. I can handle this myself. (Silas says as he gets off the couch, placing his phone into his pocket)... Perhaps I wasn't clear enough before... I said sit! (Silas commanded in a low and menacing tone of voice, his very presence now exuding a massive amount of pressure)

Most of them are angered by the young man's show of strength, but only one is brash enough to step forward. Seth sends all the plastic chairs flying with only a single kick, and then stands face to face with Silas, not the least bit scared by his display of power.

Seth Wild: Or what?! What can you do, little man?! (Seth asks with a menacing stare)

With one swift motion Silas grabs Seth by the collar, pulling him closer than he already was, their faces now almost touching.

Silas Gravestone: For starters I can make your existence a living hell. And trust me, it gets progressively worse from there! (Silas threatens him with a grin, and then pushes him back by the collar)

Seth Wild: (Chuckles) Kids these days, they just don't know they're place. (Seth says as he takes off his shirt, revealing his muscular physique)... Pay attention guys, I'm about to teach this punk a lesson. (Seth said with a smile, readying himself for a fight)

Seth is probably expecting everyone to cheer for him, or at least show him some support. But to his surprise everyone is just picking up the plastic chairs, and taking a seat without even saying a word.

Seth Wild: Really guys?! You all scared or something?! (Seth asks in anger, upset by their lack of support)

Shawn Kindle: M- Mr Seth... That young man is the boss's grandson. (Shawn informs him nervously)

Seth Wild: Grandson?! (Seth exclaims in shock)

Silas Gravestone: (Chuckles) It's nice to meet you... I'm Silas Gravestone. (Silas introduces himself with a devious smirk)

The look of shock intensifies on Seth's face, now fully realizing that he almost signed his own death warrant, and it's not over yet.

Seth Wild: I apologize for my actions, Young Master! I was out of line! Please forgive me! (Seth pleaded on his knees, his head now firmly on the ground)

Silas Gravestone: Awww, it's over already? And I really wanted to find out what lesson you would teach me. But now that you know who I am, there's no way you would dare attack me... How disappointing. (Silas tells him with a smile, clearly enjoying this moment)

Zeus Eduardo Everest: This is why idiots are useful in this world, at least now I know who this kid is. His power may be impressive, but in a fight I would definitely kick his ass. But then I would most certainly be a dead man. (Zeus thought to himself, deciding to just observe for now)

Susie Walters: There's no doubt about it. This young man really is related to that lunatic. (Susie thought to herself, now understanding the gravity of this situation)

Shawn Kindle: I feel sorry for, Mr Seth. He might get into serious trouble for this, it's a good thing I already know Mr Silas. (Shawn thought to himself, very much relieved)

Milady Benson: Who does he think he is? Spoiled brat. (Milady thought in anger, but does not get involved)

Silas Gravestone: Alright, get up. We have important business to discuss. (Silas tells Seth)

Seth Wild: Thank you sir, thank you so much! (Seth tells him nervously, taking a seat on one of the plastic chairs)

Silas Gravestone: Now, the reason you're all here is simple... You're all very weak. (Silas tells them bluntly)... You all know my grandfather's plan, but I'm still going to remind you. He intends to create a new world, a better one for humanity to live in. But in that world, weaklings like you lot wouldn't last a week. And it's just a fact at this point. (Silas tells them sharply, without a hint of doubt in his words)

Zeus Eduardo Everest: Weaklings? Who are you calling a weakling, boy?! (Zeus asks as he gets up from his seat, walking towards Silas with intense rage burning in his glowing red eyes)

Silas watches the big man approach, his glowing red eyes showing no fear, and also peering into his very being.

Silas Gravestone: Inspect. (Silas whispers)

Silas Gravestone: So, you're the Dream Destroyer I've heard so much about? (Silas tells Zeus, the two now standing face to face)... I expected you to be much taller. (Silas tells him fearlessly)

Zeus Eduardo Everest: You should see me in my real suit. I'm so tall that I could squash you like a bug. (Zeus tells him with a menacing stare)

Silas Gravestone: You're strong, probably even stronger than I am. But that's not nearly enough... Right now we're all the lowest of the low, the bottom of the barrel. I'm young and still have the potential to grow, but what's your excuse? (Silas asks with a wicked smile)

Zeus stares at Silas intensely, almost as if he wanted to punch him in the face, and deal with the consequences later.

Zeus clenches his fist tightly, and a terrifying pressure envelops the room, making the air heavy with tension. But just as Zeus is about to do something stupid, Susie speaks up.

Susie Walters: Would you stop antagonizing us! Say what you want already, so we can all leave! (Susie yells at Silas, stopping Zeus from possibly throwing a punch)

Silas Gravestone: (Sighs) Very well... My grandfather has asked me to train you all, to make you strong enough to survive in his perfect world . (Silas explains to them)

Susie Walters: Is that all? (Susie asks him)

Silas Gravestone: Yes it is, I will be summoning you all at a later date with more information... You can leave now. (Silas tells them before retrieving his phone from his pocket, and texting on it once again)

Susie Walters: Thanks... This was, intriguing. (Susie tells him before leaving the room, being the first to do so)

Milady Benson: Hmph! (Milady sounded before walking away)

Zeus Eduardo Everest: Watch yourself, kid. (Zeus tells him before adjusting his suit, and angrily walking out of the room)

Shawn Kindle: I'm leaving as well, excuse me. (Shawn informs him before also leaving the room)

Seth Wild: If you need anything, just let me know. I will be more than happy to help. (Seth tells him nervously)

Silas Gravestone: Inspect. (Silas said under his breath)

Seth Wild: Thank you so much, that is all I really want! I will do my best, I promise you. (Seth tells him before happily leaving the room)

Harry: Are you okay, Young Master? You seem stressed. (The older gentleman asks him, the two now alone together)

Silas Gravestone: (Sighs) I'm fine, Harry. I'm just not sure I did a good job. Instilling fear is hard. (Silas says in frustration)

Harry: I think you did a marvelous job. (Harry tells him positively)

Silas Gravestone: That's just your opinion.

Harry: Well it's a good one. You should believe me, I would never lie to you. (Harry assures him)

Silas Gravestone: Okay then, do you think I can beat that Destroyer guy? (Silas asks)

Harry: I don't think you can... Not yet anyway. (Harry tells him truthfully)

Silas Gravestone: You really were honest with me. (Silas tells him with a smile, really appreciating this)... I need to get a lot stronger, Harry. So that even I can survive in my grandfather's perfect world. (Silas tells him with conviction in his words, now more determined than ever)
