Limitless Evolution: The Path To Immortality



"I didn't want it to end this way either, but you guys poked your noses where it didn't belong." A young boy's voice sounded from behind them, sending a shiver down their spines.

"Kid. You shouldn't be out this late." One of the weaker knights smiled at the green-eyed boy and tried to walk toward him, but their group leader quickly stopped him.

"That kid... He's dangerous." The leader muttered.

"How can the kid be dangerous. He looks like he 9 or 10 years old. At that age, I didn't even know how to hold a sword properly." The man chuckled.

"Really? I thought it was customary for most people to at least learn swordsmanship by the age of 6, or is that not the case here?" the black-haired boy tilted his head a few degrees to the right.

"Who are you, kid." one of them asked with their blades pointed toward the black-haired boy.

"I could tell you..." The green-eyed boy touched his chin in thought before looking back at the group.

"But it won't matter in a few minutes."

"And why is that." The leader began to unsheath his sword, something that shocked the rest of them.

"Leader! What are you doing. He's a kid!" one of them shouted.

"Can't you see it already, you morons. He's the eldritch terror." The leader gripped his sword tightly and gritted his teeth.

'oh? Is that what they're calling me?' Silas thought with a wry smile that hid his annoyance. Of course, the news would have spread. He's been asleep for at least two days. There's no way the survivors wouldn't have said anything.

"But he doesn't have white hair." One of them argued.

"Yeah, but he does have green eyes, looks around the ages described, and is currently releasing slithers of killing intent while looking at us. What more do you want." The leader retorted and dashed forward.

"Finally." Silas sighed and pointed his hand toward him.

"I'm truly sorry for this." Silas muttered as a magic circle appeared before his hand.

Suddenly, a bullet made of wind shot forward, shocking all of them in the process, yet not giving the leader nearly enough time to dodge the attack.

So instead of dodging, he use his toki to block the attack.

Toki quickly wrapped itself around the normal bullet before trying to stop it or destroy it. However, while the leader tried to do that, Silas was running toward him at full speed, using wind fusion to increase his velocity.

A dagger could be seen in his hand as he neared the leader, yet one of the leader's teammates stepped forward with a sword in their hands and attacked Silas with everything they had.

"DIE!"

*clang*

Silas quickly deflected the attack. They were all as strong as a dull amethyst, even the leader despite him looking a little older and in some way, a little stronger than all of them.

When the leader finally destroyed the bullet, he looked forward, yet what he saw shocked him to his core.

There was Silas, spinning on his heel and slitting his comrade's throat with a single slash.

"NOOOO-"

"Shut up." Silas muttered while flicking his foot and creating a magic circle under him.

Suddenly, a spike made of earth shot out of the ground and appeared right in front of his throat, and before he could even react to the sudden attack, he felt a sharp pain come from his neck as his ability to breathe quickly seized.

"LEADE-"

Two boulders crushed the rest in an instant, making their deaths quick and easy.

Silas finally turned to the one squirming on the floor, trying his hardest to keep his blood from leaving through the cut on his neck.

"Don't worry. I'll end your suffering as quickly and painlessly as possible." Silas smiled while creating a fired bullet that entered the man's brain and instantly turned it to ash.

Standing up, Silas could not help but sigh at the mess he made. 

They had attacked him first anyway, so his consciousness was guilt-free.

Silas' eyes wandered toward the motel room the assassins were staying in. He had already killed all of them the moment the knights left, and even though he wanted to kill them while they were in the room, he had a feeling that the fight would have been much harder if it as all of them against him.

Running away would have also been much easier for them to do since not all of them were stationed in the same room.

With a snap of his fingers, Silas threw out several marble-sized fireballs and burned their bodies to a crisp.

With another snap, he sunk the ground under them and buried them where they lay. 

That was the least he could do for them. Though, if he had to be honest, burying them was the best option since it would hide their bodies for a bit longer. Of course, he had taken care of the assassins in a different yet similar way. 

Both included burning and burying, but one group was alive through it all, while the knights died before having to suffer that fate.

"Hey kid! Is something wrong? I heard some shouting." A male voice entered Silas' ears.

"Oh, just some drunk people fighting. Nothing to worry about here." Silas gave the man a side-long glance while blossoming a warm smile across his face.

"Oh... Alright. Stay safe kid." The man waved before entering his house again.

After that, Silas simply left the town. On the way out, he made sure to stay hidden from the guards at the front gates. Everyone who knew his name in the town was dead.

"Time to find my next victims, I guess." Silas sighed while glancing over the notebook he stole before placing it in his pocket.
