Aleron looked at the city below and added, "So people among those that I killed have families, but if their family thinks they don't deserve to die after knowing their doings and look volatile, then you should try to make them understand, and if they don't understand."
Aleron narrowed his eyes and continued after a short pause.
"Then...you can kill them. If people seek vengeance for an evil person, then that vengence is a sin in my court," Aleron sharply said, "To pursue that vengence, they'll hurt innocents, so snuff them out if they can't understand that what they are doing is wrong."
Everyone felt goosebumps as they heard him.
But Aleron stretched his arms after he finished speaking and grinned, "And we are finally done."
"Next, we are going to the Relaxing Hill Resort for so massage and hot spring. I am feeling a bit sore and tired."
"That's a good place," Rias nodded with a smile. "Let's go there."
"Hold on, I'll teleport us," Aleron used Magilore, marking Yueha, i, Hua, Fang, Rias, and Roxen before teleporting all of them to the beautiful and luxurious hill resort to the east of the city.
lkern, Lake, Bergetta, and other powerhouses who had flown up from the Aurspec clan floated with dazed expressions.
"C-Clan head...What should we do?"
lkern took a deep breath and said with the resolution, "They are sealed and the platform is still there. Do as Mr. Aleron said. Read their mories from magic runes and punish them according to our laws."
"He even created such magic runes for those who don't have soul force," Bergetta wryly smiled. "Just who is he? So young and so powerful? Unbelievable, but it's true, haiz..."
Bergetta couldn't help but sigh at the whole ordeal that occurred.
"Anyway, he left this to you, so I won't partake, but," Bergetta said as she looked at lkern, "If you need help, I'll send my n."
lkern shook his head, "I'll handle it. I owe him for saving the city from disaster and killing the demon."
"Do you hate him for killing your sons?" Bergetta asked with her eyes intently looking into lkern's eyes.
lkern's eyes trembled at the question before he deeply sighed. "I loved them and when soone or sothing you love is snatched away by others forever, it hurts."
"But I am not blind or insensible," lkern's jaw tightened as he looked down at the city, his eyes showing a resolved light. "I can't hate Mr. Aleron. Young and naive as he sounds, his power is on another realm, and his mind is broader than us, who are confined by our thoughts and limited by power."
"Most importantly to ," lkern firmly said, "If I found out my sons' deeds, I would have killed them myself."
"That's true, I suppose," Bergetta wryly smiled. "I saw three mbers of my organization getting killed. I'll go and see what they've done behind my back."
lkern floated alone while Aurspec clan mbers started working on his orders.
He knew both of his sons were alive and in Aleron's captive for so kind of punishnt, but he had already considered them dead.
The mories of when they were kids and how he played with them flashed in his mind before two tears left his eyes.
He didn't fail to educate them, but his sons blinded and corrupted themselves by power and desires.
If he wanted to bla others, he could bla demons, he could bla himself, he could bla the environnt around them, and he could bla the situation that gave birth to those thoughts.
But no. The decision to walk on the evil path for one's personal gain by inflicting suffering on innocents was a choice, and they made that choice. There was no excuse.
As such, his tears were not entirely of sadness, but anger as well.
"Clan head, what about our people?"
lkern frowned and sternly answered, "Our people or not, check their mories from runes and register their punishnt accordingly!"
"Prison will be overcrowded for a while, so we'll need to expand it."
lker nodded, "I'll expand it."
He left after saying that, flying towards a mountain right at the city's border in the north where the prison was situated along with a D-rank Arcane Vein for prisoners to mine.
On the other hand, people all over the city were talking about the sa situation and topic.
The dia outlets were covering this as breaking news and everything that occurred in the sky was also captured crystal clear with mirage stones.
A few powerhouses from other Kingdoms and organizations who ca here weren't expecting this, but they'd seen so familiar people from other organization and their acquaintances getting nabbed in the air and punished.
A few people who had Mirage Stones recorded the whole situation, so it was spreading like wildfire in the city, and wouldn't be long before the incident occurred would spread to other big cities and kingdoms.
Mirage Stones were magical crystals crafted using Magic Stones. One could infuse Mana in it to activate and it would then connect to one's eyes, capturing everything one saw with their
eyes in it, like a video.
"He is so young, though. Or he is old but hiding his age?"
"Doesn't really matter. I see that Robert Klek, that bastard abused workers to death and caused plenty of suffering, but nobody did anything. Now, look, he is dead."
"True."
"You rember the Yural family's kids in the academy? They bullied a poor girl from downtown brutally and spread her photos, forcing her to hang herself in the end."
"They only got light punishnt at that ti, yeah. And I heard she wasn't their first or last victim. Humph, it's good they got punished by that young man."
"But who is he?"
"What is his na?"
Such questions had spread throughout the city, but people had already given him a plain and
simple nickna.
The Punisher.
...
anwhile, Aleron and others had already arrived at the Relaxing Hill Resort and paid money for the massage and hot spring, finally beginning his relaxing and enjoyable ti in the city. They were recomnded to take a shower and hot spring bath before the massage, so everyone went further up the hill towards the hot spring spots.
