SQUEAK!!!
The little rats scread, clinging to as best they could while I moved at demonic speeds.
BOOM BOOM BOOM
"MASTER, PLEASE SLOW DOWN!" Love shouted with tears in her eyes.
"But I am going slow," I said, simply kicking the air and causing small explosions. "I could go at hypersonic speed!"
"What?" The rat’s eyes widened.
I just laughed, kicking the air as fast as I could, my body shooting forward at absurd speeds.
After so ti, I landed in front of Lightning Tiger. The sun in the region was still about to rise.
"Anyway, first I need so new clothes," I said, looking at my exposed anaconda. Unfortunately, my previous clothes had been destroyed during the evolution.
"I’m practically human now—they’ll be shocked if they see like this."
Sigh
I stepped forward and entered Lightning Tiger through the front door. So servants were already working, clearing snow and carrying water.
"Good morning!" I said, waving at them.
"What?!" They stared at wide-eyed, their gazes slowly dropping to my anaconda, clearly impressed.
The anaconda had been made by an excellent craftsman, so of course it was incredible.
The maids looked away with difficulty, their eyes still trying to sneak a peek, while the n dropped their tools and shouted angrily.
"Who are you?!" They approached with furious steps. "How dare you appear naked in a noble house!"
"He must be so drunken vagrant!" the man beside him shouted. "Do you think you can just walk around like that, polluting the eyes of pure maids and noble ladies?!"
"Pure?" I looked around again. So noblewon were watching from the windows with flushed faces, while the maids were breathing heavily.
"Don’t get wrong... but they’re liking what they see," I said, scratching the back of my neck.
"What did you say?!" he shouted. "You damn—get out of here before my patience runs out and I call—"
WOOOSH
My aura surged toward him, and imdiately the man collapsed to the ground, foam filling his mouth.
"Hii!!!" The other one scread, backing away instantly. "Guards! Guards! Guards!" He ran off shouting, but soon tripped.
His mouth filled with snow as he tried to stand up, trembling, only to slip and fall again.
Sigh
"I have better things to do..." I said, turning my back on them and heading toward the building.
"Wow... the back looks good too..." one of the maids exclaid behind .
As soon as I entered, there were hundreds of guards waiting for , lightning crackling along their weapons.
So wielded rapiers, others long, thin swords; so were even hiding above the chandeliers with hoods and hidden blades.
WOOSH WOOSH WOOSH
In an instant, dozens of attacks rained down on . The power embedded in each one was astonishing.
Even so—
"Fall."
I commanded, and so they did. My aura crushed whatever power they had, slamming them into the ground on the brink of unconsciousness.
"ARGH!!!" One of them tried to resist and retrieve his blade, but his eyes rolled back and he passed out.
I continued walking through the residence with calm steps and a serene posture.
"There should be so kind of robe in my room," I thought, when a new figure appeared at the end of the corridor.
The angelic-featured maid.
"Finally!" I shouted, catching her attention. "I was looking for soone I knew."
"You know ?" she asked, tilting her head. "I’ve never seen you before."
"You have!" I exclaid with a sigh. "I just changed a little..."
"In that case, maybe a fight will refresh my mory." She suddenly vanished from my sight.
WOOSH
Before I realized it, a blade was coming at my neck from behind.
BOOM
I snorted and simply grabbed her wrist. She imdiately dropped the blade, grabbed with her left hand, and attacked again.
"You don’t give up, do you?" Suddenly I disappeared and reappeared right behind her.
"But what?!" she exclaid, feeling her own blade pressed against her neck.
"That’s enough pointless fighting," I said, throwing the dagger at the wall and pinning it there. "Eventually the heavy hitters will show up, and I just want so clothes and to talk to Raiden."
Gulp
"Our guardian is far too busy to deal with an invader so—"
"Kai, I’m Kai!" I shouted. "I’m not an invader!"
She chuckled softly.
"So Kai is the na of our invader."
"..."
"You’re lucky you’re pretty."
BANG
I knocked her out with a blow, silencing her completely, and continued on my way to my room.
I was almost there, without interruptions, but I could sense that within the silence there were more and more conspiracies forming against .
Finally, in a well-lit corridor, one more challenge awaited .
"I don’t know who you are," Gravis said at the end of the hall. "But this is where you decide whether to turn back or truly face this noble house."
Gravis summoned lightning around himself—it looked even stronger than during our first encounter.
"I can forget this if you retreat, but I can’t let you leave alive if you decide to face . And even if I’m not enough, know that the Lord has many children who can kill you, and he has many brothers as powerful as himself, each with many children. And if even that isn’t enough, our guardian beast will be!"
"Gravis, how can you be so serious facing a naked man?" I said, astonished. "Seriously? You’re going to fight a naked man without a second thought, with all that seriousness?"
"What the hell are you talking about?" Gravis growled irritably. "Every tiger fights naked—always naked. Only humans would be ashad of such magnificent and honorable parts."
I pondered what he said.
"You know... you’re right," I said, rubbing my chin. "I fought naked this whole ti and didn’t even realize it."
BZZ BZZ BZZ
"So?" Gravis said threateningly, invoking his aura. "What’s your choice?"
WOOOSH
His aura swept over —an aura that had certainly grown stronger.
It could definitely make Sinners run away trembling in fear just from sensing it.
Even so, wasn’t it kind of ridiculous?
"Say what your decision—"
WOOOSH
My aura swallowed his and surged throughout the entire Lightning Tiger castle, making everyone tremble and pass out.
I’m sure even the Lord himself was gasping atop his throne.
"Damn it! I should’ve called the master!" Gravis shouted as he collapsed to the ground, his hand trembling. "But know this—I won’t beg for my life!"
I approached Gravis and crouched in front of him.
"It’s , Kai—your brother, you little bastard."
Bang
I flicked his forehead as I retracted my aura.
"Anyway, good morning, everyone!" I said, feeling hundreds of blades pressing against .
The Lord and his children, the Lord’s brothers and their children, the servants and maids, and even the guardian beast, Raiden.
"Lord! It’s a pleasure. I hope I didn’t scare you too much, hahaha. But I imagine you know... none of these blades protect you from ."
I said in a threatening tone.
"But good morning anyway!"
