I turned to look at the source of the laughter and saw an individual holding his stomach while laughing and pointing at us.
"Do you find it funny?" I asked while glaring at them.
"Haaaa, what did you expect?"
He asked while sighing as if he was disappointed from the situation.
"Well,"
I stood on my feet. Frostine asked not to use this technique until I had complete control over it, but it's not she can scold now.
'Heh' I chuckled with a bitter smile.
'Frost Devil' I muttered inside my head.
'Fisssss' steam rose from my legs blowing out the lit fire.
Cold chilling mana ran through my entire body, my eyes felt hot, and my skin began to turn progressively paler, only stopping when my entire body turned white and crystalized, my hands and legs transford into clear glass-like crystals. I felt a wave of excruciating pain wash over . I tried to scream, but nothing ca out. At the sa ti, the chilling mana was gradually moving closer and closer to my brain, and I could feel my mind and emotions numbing.
I could see why Frostine asked not to use it; my mind was consud by a desire to destroy that only grew stronger and stronger. I felt omnipotent and omniscient.
Everything that was going on inside my body stopped and I was facing towards the sky.
I turned my head towards the group with an open mouth, which was soon replaced with a wide smile, the guy who was laughing had his face down, staring at the ground, while the rest of his group were looking at guy behind them, the guy who was laughing felt stronger than the rest, so
I left him for the last.
I took a step and instantly appeared in the middle of the group. I punched a hole in their hearts before they could even react, and every ti I moved, I saw mana and space twist.
'KILL'
I didn't pay any attention to that sudden thought;
SPLURT
The sound ca after I had already punched through the hearts of all seven people.
"Nothing really." I said as I stood behind him.
He turned his head towards and shivered slightly, a grin appeared on my face as I looked at the guy who was laughing at Frostine's death shiver, he looked at my bloodied hands and his dead teammates with holes in their hearts, he stood there silently trying to understand what happened, he slowly raised his head, saw my face, and froze before finally opening his mouth,
"Y-you monster." He spoke.
"Monster?"
I was taken aback when he abruptly called a monster, I glanced around to make sure if he was calling a monster, however I found nobody around us.
"?"
In disbelief, I pointed at myself. I saw my hands crystallized in clear glass like crystals and realized why he called that, but
"No. No, no, no, no, no."
"I'm a human, or was until you guys showed up."
'KILL' voice rang in my head.
I have no intention of letting those who have hurt live, and I'm not naive enough to let those who have attempted to kill or kill what is mine get away with it.
"WHAT?" he exclaid, surprised, as if he hadn't expected it.
I frowned at him, but he was lost in thought, staring at the bodies. Just by looking at him, I could tell what he was thinking; he had declared to be a monster on his own, and his expressions changed constantly as he was shocked, realized, and beca angry. I was annoyed to see him lost in thought and completely oblivious to the fact that I was there, and my frown deepened as I glared at him.
How insolent of him.
'KILL,' the voice rang in my head again, and my eyes began to hurt, as if they were burning, I smiled with my eyes still locked on him, a sudden thought crossed my mind,
Why did they co here?
Which was soon followed by many other questions. Why did they try to kill us? How and why did they co here if they were with other humans? Is he really the one who targeted us? But why? An excruciating pain washed over from my heart; my face twisted even more.
'F**k it. It doesn't matter anymore.' I thought because I can't last any more as the source for this technique has not been changed yet, I'll die, I have an hour at Max.
While I was lost in my own world, he lifted his head and looked at ; he froze and began to tremble uncontrollably; he kneeled and bowed with his hands and head on the ground.
"I-I'm s-sorry."
"Pl-please spa-spare m-."
When I heard a trembling voice pleading for his life, I snapped out of my thoughts and saw the man who had been in his own world until now was trembling and on his knees.
I approached him and glared at him for a brief mont, then crouched down and placed my hand on his head to lift him up to my line of sight; many thoughts were racing through my mind, but now everything else was dominated by a single thought,
DESTROY.
That single thought has been running in mind making it hard for to think,
"Don't worry. I'll kill you painlessly, but only after I'm done." I said with grin on my face.
'Brain storm' I muttered in my head.
Air around his head grew cold, turned visibly white and made its way to his brain from his ears, mouth and nostrils. 'Brain storm' numbs the brain making it easier to extract information, and if a bit of magic power usage is increased it can be considered a best form of torcher as the ntal torcher is different and pain is imasurable.
'Extract and access' I muttered.
Hmmmm.....you can say that it's a magic I created from seeing how simple the na is, it has many other uses but let's leave it at that for now, and all magic spells I created have very simple naming as I don't have a higher naming sense, so don't expect much.
"We discovered a new monster and suspect it to be a dragon."
"No survivors were located, but the dragon we did find appears to be intelligent and is a frost dragon."
"Estimated elents include water and ice."
"Well done. Please try to kill it. I'll deploy additional reinforcents."
"Alright. You heard it right, guys: we need to slay the dragon before it poses a danger to people."
""" YES, SIR."""
"Everyone prepare the 'teor summon' scrolls; we'll be killing a dragon so we don't have to worry about the people's safety."
I closed my eyes to read his mories, his mories and the most recent conversation flood into my mind, I got the location of the city and everything he saw, and there were things I didn't want to see, my face cringed at the way he flirts, or should I say talks, anyway, I got the information on who ordered him.
I cringed a little as I looked at him, this all happened as my urge to destroy was still acting up; it's not like I can't control it, but everything I look at seems to be begging for to destroy it. I know that at any mont I could lose control, and by the ti I co to my senses, I'll already be dead.
"Guh." an almost inaudible voice ca out from his mouth.
Hmmm... I thought for a while if I should kill him more painfully or...
"Oh well,"
I did say I'd kill him painlessly, so whatever.
SPLURT.
THUD.
His head rolled down towards my leg, and no matter how hard I tried not to be disrespectful to the dead, his lustful way of speaking to won rang in my head, I shivered from the cringe and kicked his head.
I turned to face the tallest mountain here, which I had always wanted to see from above; perhaps this was for the best.
I took a step towards the mountain and disappeared from the place I stood.
"Oh wow, I'm faster than I thought."
I found myself moving at an extrely fast speed and noticed that the pulling force was low, despite the fact that I was climbing the mountain very quickly and sensed that the mana in the air was making way for , allowing to move like that. I smiled as I suddenly rembered the phrase, 'I'm fast as f**k boi.'
"Hahahahaha,"
I ran joyfully towards the top, dodging many obstacles along the way, and found myself almost at the clouds. I didn't stop and sped up even more, and soon I could feel myself in the clouds. I'm not sure if the clouds are normally this thick or if it beca this thick due to mana, but I loved it.
"Hahahahahaha,"
I laughed to hearts content. As I reached the top, the sun was shining brighter than ever, and nothing could be seen from above because everything was shrouded in thick clouds; if I had to describe what I was seeing in a single word, it would be,
HEAVENLY.
Yes, it was heavenly.
"Wooaaahh" I exclaid unconsciously.
"Ha," I chuckled as I looked at the view; it was the most relaxing view I'd ever seen in my life; everything I saw and felt ca from social dia; the view described in many social dias, which I thought was an exaggeration, was real.
I sat at the top for a few monts, admiring the view before leaping off.
I felt as if my consciousness faded away as soon as I leaped off, but I could still feel what was happening; only control over my body was lost; I thought I could enjoy the scenery a little more, but oh well, it can't be helped.
***
In a 20-ter-long semi-lit room. A man in his mid-thirties with dark brown hair and wrinkles on his temples and wide-open brown eyes with dark circles below them sat behind a desk with a naplate, a black book-like device that was showing news, and a stack of papers next to him. He appeared to be scribbling sothing, and the sound of him doing so reverberated throughout the room. The room was filled with the scent of ink and wood.
SCRIBBLE.
He stopped what he was doing and leaned back in his chair, lifting his right arm and placing it on his eyes, he seed to be exhausted from his work.
"Haa.... why is there no response yet?" He let out a long sigh and mumbled in a low tone.
It had been nearly two hours since he issued the orders to eliminate the newly found dragon, and he was confident in the group because they were the most elite group in the association, so he should have heard the report from them by now.
'Were they killed?'
He thought and suddenly discarded the thought waving his hand in front of him.
'That is not possible.' He reasoned that even he, an S-rank, wouldn't be confident in defeating them if they worked together, and that a dragon shouldn't pose much of a threat because the group had been sent in whole, but he had a very uneasy feeling.
Ba-bump. Ba-bump.
'What?' He jerked back and sat up straight, sensing sothing eerie.
"Huuu." he placed his hand on his chest, exhaled and cald down or at least he tried.
In his ten years of fighting monsters, he had been saved many tis by his instincts, and he was familiar with the sense of danger, but what he was feeling now was different. Whatever it was, he decided to trust it, so he pushed the desk forward, took a step back, and began to channel all of his mana around his entire body, creating six mana balls above him, while the pressure his body excluded, which seed to be rged with his mana, created cracks beneath his feet.
"..."
He carefully examined every corner of the room, and cracks began to form on the glass windows.
"Who goes there." he said in a hoarse voice.
Ba-bump, Ba-bump, Ba-bump, Ba-bump.
His heartbeat sped up; he was certain that sothing was wrong, but he had no idea what it was.
"Who goes there, I said." he said in cold voice.
"..."
"I'll count to three, and if you don't co out, I'll destroy the entire room."
"..."
He was et with silence, he was certain he would live, even if he completely destroyed the space he was in, 'could it be the governnt sent them?' he thought, he couldn't cancel out the possibility of the governnt being involved.
'F**k it,' he thought, and began counting, ready to destroy the room.
"3.... 2....1"
"Peekaboo."
