"Oh, why do you look so shocked, Kim Soo-Min? You might be racking your brain right now, wondering how I knew your na so easily," I teased her further, loosening my grip a little. I had to be careful not to accidentally kill her.
"W-Who are you?" she asked, struggling to take in so air.
"I'm just a guy minding his own business, but you ssed with the wrong person. Right now, I'm doing my best to stop myself from not ripping your head off, so you better watch your mouth," I warned her with a nacing chuckle.
She felt more and more afraid as my words sank in. Perhaps, she had thought she was untouchable, but facing the possibility of death made her more tad.
"Do you think your boyfriend will co here if I kill you?" I asked her, my face twisted into a creepy smile. The burn marks on my face probably didn't help make her feel at ease. This situation certainly wasn't winning any awards for a pleasant conversation.
"N-No please don't. He doesn't really care about !" She pleaded for rcy. Horror painted her expression, realizing that I was dead serious about killing her right now.
"Are you sure? How about calling him here?" I suggested. I wanted to resolve this situation quickly and be done with it.
Dealing with Cerebrum was one thing, but an organization willing to burn a building just to make a point was far more unpredictable. And I hated surprises.
"I-I..." she stuttered, clearly having second thoughts. After witnessing my ability to control space, her faith in her boyfriend's abilities probably crumbled. I an, fire would look like child's play compared to the power of space.
My ability to teleport things has its own set of limitations, but she doesn't know that. Right now, she must think I can do to her boyfriend what I did to her.
"You know what, I like you too. How about this. Because I like you, I'll make it quick and painless," I chuckled, my tone taking on a sinister tone as I once again tightened my hold on her neck.
She began squirming, saliva dripping from her mouth as her eyes darted upward. She looked in pain right now, and the lack of oxygen in her brain was slowly causing her to lose consciousness.
But before she totally succumbed, I intentionally loosened my grip so she could gasp for so air again.
It would be too boring to just let her die like this. Besides, I think I could use her first before disregarding her. If she satisfies , then I might just end up keeping her, just because I feel it was a waste to kill such a beauty.
BOOOOOOOOM!
A massive explosion erupted inside the building, but I wasn't worried in the slightest.
I half-expected this to happen because it was a condominium unit, with flammable materials that could easily trigger an explosion.
The structure, already engulfed in flas, began to collapse in on itself with a deafening roar.
Debris started raining down on us, but my Aegis Projection shielded us from any harm. I pulled Kanon closer to , ensuring her safety.
She was an important piece in gathering information about Cerebrum, and rescuing my mother remained my top priority. This incident was nothing more than a minor hiccup in my larger goal.
The whole place was now filled with smoke, so I didn't have to worry about anyone seeing even if I flew on the sky. Realizing this, I took Kanon using my Telekinesis and then floated upward to find a much safer place.
I remained on guard just in case of an attack.
Finally, we landed on the rooftop of another building, the hot breeze from the fire mixing with the unfortunate events unfolding before us.
Taking in the chaotic scene, I heard the consecutive notification of skill and EXP points, a reward in the middle of this turmoil. This incident might have been unexpected, but the haul I got was big enough to once again elevate my power to a whole new level.
In fact, the level-up speed from this arson incident was the fastest growth I had ever experienced since getting the system.
"Look at what you have done? You people are a bunch of lunatics. You should all burn in hell for killing all those people." I shook my head, my face now a canvas of sadness as I continued to play the role of the good guy.
By blaming them for everything, I could pretend to be the righteous one in this confrontation.
Kim Soo-Min was rendered speechless by my words. The earlier haughty and arrogant air about her completely dissipated. Well, considering I still had a firm grip on her, it would be foolish for her to talk back to .
"Your boyfriend is late. Are you sure he really loves you?" I asked again, a hint of contempt in my tone. I had been waiting for soone to co to her rescue, but so far, there was no sign at all.
I released my grip on her neck and just locked her on the air.
"He won't co," she answered, taking a mont to catch her breath.
"Why do you think that?" I inquired, curious about her reasoning.
"He won't risk fighting you after knowing that you were able to catch ," she admitted.
"Oh, why is that? I an, you're pretty easy to catch," I taunted.
"Easy for you. But I have the ability to avoid detections. I could erase my presence completely, but it doesn't seem to work on you," she explained, revealing a bit about her abilities.

She looked really dejected, realizing that the power she relied on for survival was actually useless against .
I was able to use my Mind Eye on her once I saw her real body. So, my system might have been the reason why I was able to spot her with ease.
"So, he won't co?" I asked again.
"No," She shook her head.
"You're useless. Don't bla for being rciless. You brought this on yourself," I said, shaking my head in disappointnt.
"AHHHHH! PLEASE STOP...I-- IT HURTS… YOU'RE BREAKING !" she scread in pain, her voice filled my ears as I slowly increase the intensity of my Telekinesis.
