Chapter 371: Chapter 371 – Unfortunate Bandits [ Part 1 ]
I walk down the grassy grounds as it lowered down towards the bandit’s base.
My body, a full hunk of steel made jerking sounds as I moved with every step. It felt kind of strange and also quite good. As if I was a monster that was about to fuck everyone up.
“Arghh!”
“Fuck!”
Screams and curses were being flung from the base as I saw the soldiers all barraging through the door to kill every bandit.
“Well there are already a lot of them in that small base and adding among that cluster full of fucks would only make it more awkward.” I say out loud and slow my descend.
“I might as well take it easy. Not like the bandits have any chance of escaping from that many soldi- and there cos one.” I shook my head, “I jinxed it.”
As I was talking, a bandit suddenly barraged through the hundreds of soldiers with great speed. It seems his destination is to run as far as the road goes.
Unfortunately for him, his road led him straight to .
“Argh… I got out.” The bandit said as he limply ran and looked back with exhaustion. His body was covered in blood, not his.
“How did so many of those bastards suddenly sprung out from?” He’s breathing was slow and deep, “It’s almost endless… like a hundred and fifty of them.”
“It’s two hundred, actually.”
“Oh, two hundred. That sounds about righ-” The bandit stopped and instantly turned his head ahead and his face lost its colors.
Seeing sothing monstrously tall and covered with shining steel armor with no visible face made my appearance a bit terrifying. Especially so for the bandit who had just escaped from the two hundred soldiers hunting for their lives.
“You’re with them, aren’t you?” The bandit asked as I nod slowly, confirming his fear. “And it wouldn’t be too far-fetched to ask if you’re a rchant that would let leave for so dough?”
“Unfortunately… I’m not lacking in money as you can see.” I point to my armor that likely cost a fortune.
“Yeah…” The bandit sighed, “It seed too much to ask.”
“Hey, if it’s any consolation, I’ll be quick enough for you to not know it.”
The bandit gave a fearful smirk, “You’re that confident huh?… Just because you’re very tall and look like a huge monster, doesn’t make you the strongest.”
“But Might does and I have it.” I tell him without a shred of humanity, “So is gonna be quick or quick and hopeless?”
The bandit gritted his teeth and clutched the sword in his hands tightly. The palms of his sweating and shaking at the impossible situation.
“Fuck it! If I’m going to die, then I’ll bring you too!”
“Good!” I clap my hands together, a loud tallic sound rang as it shook the bandit unconsciously, “I like an active kill, the others are so much boring.”
The bandit didn’t communicate any further and ran towards with his greatest speed. The ring on his hand brightening red as it forced out its utmost power.
The sword of the bandits blazed brighter than ever. He didn’t know if it was because of his fear of death or lack of it, but the bandit felt that it could actually win this instant.
“Argghh!”
So he ca with a victorious roar and slashed up at my chest.
The bandit thought that the monster in front of him would move or try to block his attack, but it didn’t. His sword found no trouble as it slashed against the armor.
“KLANG!”
But instead of the hopeful future he fought for, the bandit got the cruel reality.
He’s sword hit the monster but instead of doing any damage or even dents, the sword just rebounded back as it t with an immovable force.
The bandit was pushed back with the sa force as he hit and the blazing fla that showed his eager to survive, went away.
“Wh- What!” The bandit said, not believing this. “But I… I put my all in that.”
“Why is it that you guys always say that?” He heard the monster speak as it brought out sothing huge from its back.
Seeing the big block that shouldn’t be justified as a sword, the bandit sweated.
“Don’t you know, it’s basically impossible to move a mountain.”
The bandit didn’t listen to him and gulped, “Is it too late to ask-”
“Yes”
That was my answer as I struck down and halved the guy from head to… you know, that part.
He’s body split apart slowly from the head as if cutting a sticky potato and fell apart. The blood, bones, at and inner intestines falling over as they realized they’ve been separated.
“As disgusting as it was… that felt quite cool.” I say as I hear an unbearable groan from behind.
I didn’t need to turn around to know it was Lucian. He was following from a distance. His job made him want to co closer for better protection but I have told him I’d handle it.
I didn’t need to look back to see the impossible expression on him, I’ve seen it too many tis to know otherwise.
Lucian though was in greater shock than ever. This was the first ti he had seen soone being slashed in half like that. Yes, he has seen battle injuries and deaths before, but not one that was so quick and yet cruel at that.
He only gulped and asured himself with Henry, only to find an unmanageable level between them.
But he wasn’t the only one that saw that.
“Shit! Did that really happen?”
and Lucian look ahead where a group of five bandits stood, observing at the half cut body of their friend.
“He really cut Kliness like that?”
“Fuck… now it’s almost impossible to escape.”
“With the soldiers in the base and this monster ahead, what do we do?”
Among the chaos, one stood up, “Wait! We can’t just give up? It’ll be the sa as dying anyway.”
“So we fight and die like him?” One pointed at Kliness’s half bodies.
“Yeah… but we won’t die like him.” The guy said, “He was alone and we are five, each with powerful abilities.”
“Now that you said that, it doesn’t feel completely hopeless.” Another said and the bandits felt their hopes gather together.
“Isn’t that great?” I say, as they looked at , “But can you hurry it up, I still need to kill others too.”
“Fucking bastard! We’ll show you what happens when you beco too cocky!” The lead guy said and he along with another guy ran towards .
‘A second ago you were talking about surviving and now you’re running into death. Talk about being cocky.’
Both ran at the sa distance and speed towards . I waited for them and right when they were in range to attack, both stepped aside and shouted, “Now, do it!”
Ahead, the three that had stood behind, pointed their palms at . Flas raging on each of their hands. They all gathered their greatest flas and spewed at like dragon fire, bathing in huge flas.
“Burn up, monster!”
The sword fighters didn’t stay back as well. One made himself stronger and bigger while the other’s sword was wrapped in purple lightning.
“Now die!”
They both attack at my neck.
