Chapter 368 A Plan Not Mine [2]
From there those guys carried to sowhere and I couldn't see where since my eyes were closed. I was supposedly unconscious after all.
And that brought to the current situation.
Right now I was sitting on the floor, leaning against a wall while my hands were tied behind . I was most likely in so room and the two guys who kidnapped were there with as well.
Though just now it seed like things were about to get moving again. The door to the room opened and I heard the footsteps of soone coming inside.
"Finally! Just look at you!" the person who ca inside said in an aggressive tone. "You are there, lying on the ground after getting beat up like a pathetic loser! That's what you deserve, you fucking background character!"
"Hmmm, I think you're a bit wrong there. If you ask I'd say Zero was a side character rather than a background character. I an, background characters are those who just stay in the background and are never given any dialogue or anything like that.
"Whereas side characters do have so degree of dialogue. And from what I rember, Zero did have a good amount of dialogue dedicated to him before he died. Wouldn't you agree?" I spoke with my eyes still being closed.
"What the hell?!" the voice I heard in response was of astonishnt and uncertainty.
I finally opened my eyes and saw that the guy who had entered the room just now was in fact, Akumi—though I knew that already.
He had a surprised expression on his face. Which was kinda only to be expected. I an, unconscious people aren't supposed to speak, after all.
"Hey, you fuckers! Didn't I tell you to knock him out before bringing him here?!" he scread, looking toward the two guys who brought here.
"We did knock him out. I don't know how he's conscious again!" one of them replied.
"Agh! These nobodies can't even do a simple job!" Akumi said in a frustrated manner.
"Don't worry," the other guy said. "If we sohow failed to knock him out then we will simply do it now."
Saying that he began to walk toward as he cracked his fingers, looking at with his eyes full of anger.
"Well, I don't wanna be the party popper but you already brought to where I wanted to be," I said as I stood up on my feet. "Therefore I have no reason to take your beating now—though I don't know whether to call it a beating or not since it didn't even tickle."
Using elental magic I burned the ropes that were tying my arms and turned toward the man. He scread in rage and threw a punch directed toward my face.
I raised my left hand, blocking his punch and gripping his hand tightly.
"You're weak," I said, and then used elental magic.
Starting from the arm his body began to freeze. There was a look of fear and horror on his face as he desperately tried to remove the ice. But neither was he able to relieve his hand from my grip nor was he able to get the ice off his body.
In a few seconds, he was completely frozen. What stood before now was nothing but a statue of ice. I increased my grip and his now-frozen arm shattered into pieces and following that his entire body soon broke apart and fell on the ground.
The other guy with him saw this and was struck with fear. There was sweat on his face and his eyes were desperately trying to find a way to get out of here. Then he looked toward the exit door and began to run for his life.
"Hey, you're next. Don't run like that," I said. The next mont I dashed from my current position, appearing right in front of him.
Perhaps he wasn't able to see since he didn't stop and crashed into . It didn't make move however he lost his balance and fell onto his knees.
"You should be careful while you run, you know," I said as I bent toward him. With my right hand, I grabbed his head and then looked him in the eye.
"Hmm. You were the one who said that I'm a loser since I didn't use my sword back then, right? Well, you see. It's not that I can't use my sword or don't know how to use a sword, it's just that I don't HAVE to use my sword for the likes of you," I stated.
He didn't respond, or more like he couldn't. His entire body was trembling and he was not able to move a muscle. His body was already dead.
Since I didn't want to waste much ti on him and let Akumi escape, I quickly used my elental magic again and set his body on fire. However, I also didn't want to have a burning man running around here so I made the fire hot enough to turn him into ashes after a few seconds of suffering.
After that, I turned and looked at Akumi. He hadn't moved from his location at all and was just watching in disbelief. However, the look on his face was different from these two.
He didn't fear , he wasn't scared of , he wasn't scared for his life, he didn't want to run away. It's more like he was caught off guard by this sudden change of events.
"Now then, shall we begin?" I appealed.
"You! You fucking side character! You shouldn't have had powers like these! Then how?! Tell how! How are you able to use magic like this?! How?! How the fuck are you able to do that?!" he scread in confusion, like a kid in an exam who didn't know the answer to a single question.
"Who knows why I have these powers? Why don't you go ahead and figure that out for yourself?" I said, taunting him.
"Ah well, whatever," he mumbled, irritated. "It doesn't matter if you can use magic like that. After all, you are nothing but fantasy. I am the only one who's real in this world, I am the only one who's alive, Throughout heavens and earth, I alone am the one who truly exists.
"I'll just kill you with my own hands, and then m-marry my darling Anya," he shouted.
Sothing about his words made clench my fist.
He raised his right hand and a portal opened near him.
"Co, Excalibur!" he said and pulled out a sword from the portal.
'Did he just say Excalibur!? I said inwardly.
