Chapter 45: Slaughter
"Huh, what do you mean by that?"
Suddenly, Lucas reached for the sword at his waist and slashed at the man.
"Wait… wait, Lucas." The man closed his eyes as a disgusting smell emitted from him.
Just as the sword was about to touch him, Lucas stopped.
The man fell to the ground with a "thud," in a horrified expression of disbelief as he looked at the cold blade in horror, with the tip right in front of his eyes.
"If I had made any move, I would be dead…" he thought, with a terrified expression.
"I said leave," Lucas muttered with a pained expression.
"But…"
He was suddenly stopped as he felt an arm on his shoulder.
"Let's leave it," he looked at his friend, who shook his head.
The man sighed as all the boys left, leaving a sobbing woman behind.
After all of them left, Lucas licked his dry lips, seeing the beauty in front of him.
"Although my initial plan was to make these guys my subordinates, it doesn't matter as long as I can taste her…" he licked his lips with a lustful expression.
Lucas walked up to the girl and started to tear her clothes one by one, with the girl resisting desperately.
But she was helpless against Lucas's strength, no matter how hard she resisted.
As her clothes came off, her delicate white tender skin was revealed, causing Lucas to lick his lips with anticipation.
But she still stubbornly resisted, causing the process to be slow.
"As long as you let me do it, I will give you enough resources for you to cultivate," he said in a lustful tone.
However, the girl still put up a resistance with defiant eyes.
Seeing this, Lucas chuckled, "the more you resist, the more I am turned o-"
Boom!
A fist descended on him right on his head with unnerving accuracy, directly penetrating his skull.
His head exploded from the sheer power of the punch.
Bits and pieces of his brain matter exploded everywhere along with blood, creating a gruesome scene.
The girl directly fainted upon seeing the exploded head of Lucas.
The man who exploded Lucas's head was, of course, Aur, who revealed himself covered in blood.
"Although I could not kill these guys and put the blame on all of them, our protagonist might not be able to grow if I do that…" a sneer formed on Aur's face. "After all, the protagonist usually grows up when they are in trouble, so I will create trouble for him."
The most important reason deep down inside him was that they were annoying him, and for this, Aur wanted to live life as he pleased. And what will he do to those annoying bugs? He will, of course, squash them to enjoy his life.
He vanished from his position, leaving the headless cold body of Lucas on the ground with a half-naked girl fainted as well.
Aur traveled swiftly, reaching the group of twelve youths in just moments, with an expressionless face.
"Damn it, that bastard really dared to shoo us away," the man cursed in a loud voice.
"Shh-"
"Don't silence me, we are already far away from that guy, so he can't hear us anyway," he roared loudly, stunning the others.
"Just because he is an elder's son, does he think he can do anything? That bastard was talking about brotherhood, but the moment that lustful pig saw a woman, he needed it all to himself," he cursed with a sneer. "If I ever become a tier two wizard, I am gonna grind that bastard into pieces."
Although the others were silent and never spoke a word, their expressions seemed to agree, as they had their fists clenched as well.
When Aur heard this, a sneer appeared on his face. "What a fickle guy. If he was not so distracted and had his brothers around him, he might have been alive for a little longer. But for the beauty, he chased away his brother. As expected of a narrow-minded person. However, in the end, it wouldn't have mattered anyway." He sneered and instantly sprinted towards them.
Just for the momentary pleasure, Lucas gave his life away like an idiot.
"Huh, what is that?" the man who had previously cursed looked at the approaching shadow, which was rapidly growing larger and taking on the shape of a human.
"Ru-"
Splash!
The man was crushed by a giant fist that descended upon him, penetrating his chest and bursting his heart in moments.
As the man's vision faded, he looked at the perpetrator with widened eyes.
"You are…" his eyes lost their light as he fell to the ground in shock.
Aur glanced at the motionless body of the man with an uncaring gaze, then turned his attention to the remaining eleven who had surrounded him in a circle.
"Who are you?" horror reflected in their eyes as they asked the white-haired kid.
"No matter who he is, he can't beat so many of us, you bastard-"
"Wait, I think I've seen him somewhere..."
Aur suddenly moved and kicked the other guy right in the head, bursting his skull like a water balloon.
"He's that guy who beat Williams."
Their eyes widened, and the ten of them immediately scattered in different directions.
Seeing this, Aur frowned, but his pace didn't decrease as he swiftly chased them one by one and ended their lives.
"Hmm, it's not efficient for me to kill them with my body..." Aur looked at his blood-soaked body and frowned. Besides him, there lay two more corpses, all dead from being brutally smashed.
He dragged the corpses back to the center, where there were already six corpses.
"Now, two more remain..." Aur gazed with his crimson eyes, spotting the two figures in the distance.
He chased the other two as well, wearing a sneer on his face, and took out his simple sword from his waist. Aur had used it as decoration until now, but he had to actually use it now.
Aur quickly closed the distance between them and slashed at them with a simple swing.
However, this simple swing caused a terrifying pressure that created a tearing sound as if he was slashing the very fabric of air, hacking them both to their death with a simple swing of his sword.
The two halves of their body fell to the ground as a pool of blood formed, dying the grass blood red colour.
Aur looked coldly at the corpse with an emotionless gaze.
Crack!
His ears twitched as he heard the cracking sound and looked down to see his sword cracking.
"Huh."
Under Aur's astonished eyes, the sword started to shatter like a spiderweb before turning into dust with just a simple touch.
"This... how is this possible..." his eyes widened. He had used the sword before, but it had never cracked with just a simple swing.
A frown appeared on his face.
"I need to hide the evidence before I think about it." Aur meticulously arranged the pieces, all pointing towards William, after gathering all the corpses and leaving some hair of Williams behind.
Once he was done, Aur returned with a smirk on his face.
