Hero of Darkness

Chapter 75: The Punishment



Chapter 75: The Punishment

Under the bright sun, a gory scene of cut-down, torn up and mangled corpses of hundred people filled an open battlefield. Pitiful cries for help and soul-shuddering screams filled the surroundings as an army of monsters was slaughtering these adventurers.

Kahn's attention was focused on the two men in front of him, a warrior and an assassin.

"So just to keep your so-called reputation, you guys killed an innocent woman to display your power and authority? And you thought it'd make me walk into your trap?" asked Kahn to the guildmaster as he clenched his fist tightly.

Just because she was powerless.. Jessica was trampled upon like an ant and these people saw her life no different than something not even worth remembering. They simply didn't even care about any consequences of killing her and even put her corpse on a display just to enrage Kahn and have him fall for their trap.

"We thought you were just one man, without any support of a clan or an army. Even if you were a peak Grandmaster, what could you have done anyway.. So we didn't fear about your outrage and wanted to see you willingly return the ring out of fear." replied the guildmaster who was still recovering his senses.

"Well, it worked perfectly. You've successfully enraged me." spoke Kahn in his furious voice and stood up.

"Armin!" he commanded the Priest subordinate who was busy supporting and healing the others during the battle.

Armin quickly stood behind Kahn.

"Make sure that they don't die." said Kahn and brandished the two rare rank daggers. He was already well versed in the art of torture from his part-time job as Azrael.

His extensions grabbed both the men from their arms and lifted them in the air. His current strength was already past 650 points so it was no different than picking small pebbles for him.

Kahn clearly remembered what kind of scars and wounds Jessica's dead body had after he inspected it. So he would let her killers suffer the same fate.. No, he would give them even more horrifying pain.

Kahn first started with the groaning guildmaster who ordered torturing her. He pulled out the armor forcefully by ripping it off with his bare hands.

He stabbed his daggers in the man's stomach and twisted them inwards.

"Aaaaaahhgg!!" screamed the guildmaster in pain as Kahn's dagger reached inside of his stomach and pulled his entrails out with a stream of red hot blood.

Kahn then stabbed the man's sternum and slowly pulled the dagger down and cut open a deep wound, his other hand sprayed another load of fear toxin and put the already screaming man in another jumble of horrified emotions.

"No!! Let me go! I'll give you anything you want! Money! Women! Whatever you want!" pleaded the middle-aged man as Kahn kept cutting him open one by one.

"It's not about the money.. It's about sending a message." replied Kahn.

"Heal!" ordered Kahn and Armin cast a healing spell on the guildmaster, a visible recovery could be seen on the opened flesh.

But this wasn't going to be an end to the little session. He moved to the man's legs and cut open his thighs and calves as the man kept screaming in pain and cursing Kahn loudly..

The Assassin on the other side was shuddering in fear after seeing how ruthlessly Kahn was torturing their guildmaster. He wondered what kind of monster Kahn was to have such strong monsterly extensions, an army of ferocious monsters and things he couldn't make sense of.. And all that because their Guild members ordered him to torture a young woman and then decided to kill her.

He then cut open the man's arms from the biceps and cut down all the long veins, making him bleed profusely and losing a lot of blood.

Kahn continued this torture as the horrifying screams of the guildmaster filled the entire surrounding. By now, the remaining members of this guild were close to being finished and more likely were being toyed with Kahn's subordinates as they kept running from one direction to another but finding no escape route.

After half an hour, Kahn finally stopped as the middle-aged man fainted from the agonizing pain.

He threw the body on the side.

"Wake him up." commanded Kahn to Armin as the Priest used a high-rank healing spell and woke up the guildmaster. But just then, over a dozen of black nymphs walked towards the man.

"Play with him as you like.. Just make sure he doesn't die." ordered Kahn and left the guildmaster to the nymphs who started poking holes in his body from place to place and chewed out his flesh?with their sharp teeth while Armin kept healing him over and over.

The once mighty and reputed guildmaster of the Scarlet Lion guild, the second biggest adventurer guild in the entire Flavot city was now being tortured and lynched to death by these monsters.

"Ahhhh! No! Get away from me you monsters!" wailed the guildmaster.

Kahn's gaze then landed on the assassin who had already wet his pants.

"No! Let me go.. It was them who ordered me to torture that woman. I had nothing to do with it!" shouted and begged the skinny assassin.

"Is that so? I checked her body. You did a really good job torturing her with passion. Probably had a lot of fun doing it as well. So I should reward you for being such a hardworking man." said Kahn as he took out an iron mace from his space ring.

"You beat her face with a blunt weapon, didn't you? Did your sadistic side felt joy while beating her?" asked Kahn and quickly swung the mace.

Crack!

The man's jaw was broken and many of his teeth fell on the ground along with the spring of blood.

"Master, we're done." said Omega as his 10-meter tall body stood behind Kahn.

"All of you eat their cores and equip yourselves with their weapons and armors. Leave the bodies there." said Kahn and returned to the assassin who was trembling and wriggling in pain but couldn't even scream.

Kahn hit the man with the iron mace over his shoulders, his crotch and joints.

Crack! Crack!

The sound of cracking bones could be heard as Kahn kept hitting the man over and over again.

He then cast the high-rank healing spell on the man, bringing him back from the death's door. But soon, he switched back to the daggers and started dissecting the man alive from the top of his body and to his legs.

Kahn's daggers opened a long gash as the fountain of blood leaked from the assassin.

"Ahh!!! Please don't kill me!!" screamed and pleaded the man.

But this didn't faze Kahn in any way as he kept ripping apart and skinning the man again and again and when he was close to losing consciousness, Kahn would heal him back.

He poked his eyeballs out with his daggers and and cut open his belly.

Finally, he took out his sword from the back and cut both of the man's legs with a single swing.

By now, his entire figure was drenched in red blood after torturing both these men and the ones he killed previously.

After torturing the assassin for half an hour, giving him a closer look at the grim reaper .. Kahn sprayed his poison acid on the man and melted his face. He later threw the assassin close to the guildmaster and let him suffer through the lynching by the nymphs.

Their brains had already gone haywire from the immense pain and could no longer think straight or even scream properly.

"We're done, Master. But why are we leaving the bodies here?" asked Ronin who appeared behind Kahn's back.

"To let everyone know that it was me." replied Kahn as he enjoyed the sight of these men being tortured to death.

Kahn was no different than these people who murdered others for their goals. But unlike these people, he had a bottom line. He would never implicate an innocent person in his affairs and have them suffer by being caught in the crossfire.

But his actions and mistakes did exactly that and Jessica met a cruel death. He wasn't going to be a hypocrite and run away from the responsibility and that's why he had to exact revenge for her.

Being calculative and opportunistic didn't mean being a heartless person as well. He still had his moral values and empathy despite him undergoing many changes in his demeanor and thinking process. Kahn knew that this was still keeping him humane and not let him turn into a psychopath.

At this moment.. The image of Jessica's lifeless and tortured corpse had left a mark on his mind.. Something he will always remember for his life.

Kahn watched both men chocking on their own blood and dying at the hands of the nymphs and decided to leave the dungeon.

After half an hour, he finally reached the city gates..

The dozens of people traveling through the gates gasped in fear as a young man donned in black clothes walked in the middle of the street... His entire body was covered in blood from head to toe. So much that even his sword was still dropping the fresh blood on the ground and even his black clothes failed to hide the bloodstains. It was as if this man had taken a bath in a pool of blood.

The guards at the gate were already swatted on the ground and anyone who tried to stop Kahn fainted on the spot under his chaotic and murderous aura.

Kahn kept walking through the various streets of Flavot city without the care of people looking at him with scared and baffled eyes.

And when he finally reached his bungalow.. There were hundreds of people already following behind him. Many to see exactly what was the case out of curiosity while some who knew about his identity declaring his name to the masses. His reputation was already well established in the city so many people just came to take a look at one of the strongest people in the city.

Kahn saw a small team of city security guards standing in front of his house. They were completely donned in their armors and weapons.

In front of these people, was a brunette woman dressed in dark grey armor.

Kahn already had met this woman, he remembered her face and name. It was none other than lieutenant Beatrice.

"He's here.." said one of the soldiers as the woman looked in Kahn's direction and was stunned to see his bloody figure.

When Kahn reached towards the entrance of his house.. The woman finally spoke.

"Mister Kahn.. We need you to come with us." spoke Beatrice.

In response, Kahn quickly activated War Dominance at full capacity and put all the soldiers and onlookers on their knees under his horrifying and heavy black and red aura.

He looked at the woman and finally spoke..

"Not now Lieutenant.." said Kahn as his gaze landed on something that was covered under the white sheets on his sofa.. Jessica's dead body.

"I have a funeral to attend."
