Chapter 36 Killer Kids Squad (1)
I'm still exchanging blows with the leader of the Black Box Organization. He used the Rage skill, therefore, his attacks became very heavy.
Until his attack finally broke my sword.
Even though I had given the Amplification skill to the sword in my hand, but because his attack was too powerful, his attack still managed to break my sword.
The fracture of my sword flew through the air.
Surprisingly, the fracture of my sword, either because I calculated it or because of pure luck, the fracture of my sword flew straight up so that after reaching the maximum height, the fracture of my sword fell straight down.
I calculated the place where the fracture of my sword would fall. After confirming where the fracture of my sword would fall, I led the leader of the Black Box Organization there.
"Hahaha, without a weapon in your hands, you're as good as the end!"
He shouted with joy.
"Look behind you!"
"Do you think I'll take your word for it?"
He thought the warning I issued was just a lie.
"What a shame. But you will definitely regret it."
He didn't realize that the fracture of my sword was still flying in the air and plunged straight into his body.
The fracture of my sword swirled in the air and slashed through the dawn air. With the gleam of the dawn sun reflecting off the fracture of my sword, the fracture of my sword continued into that, until….
Crock!
And sure enough. The fracture of my sword fell and pierced his shoulder.
Surprisingly, he did not scream in pain despite the bright red blood flowing from the wound on his shoulder, but he was only shocked.
I thought he was suffering the side effects of the Rage skill, which is why he could be so foolish as to be hit by such an attack.
I didn't waste much time and took advantage of the opening created when my blade fractured and hit him.
What I did first was focus all the remaining mana in the Stigma of Darkness into my legs; only then did I kick his body as hard as I could.
Thud!
Push!
Woosh!
The Black Box Organization Leader's massive body flew through the air until it broke through the walls of the building and made his body enter the building.
I went inside the building to see the state of the leader of the Black Box Organization, but I found something else instead.
Besides me finding the black box organization leader's body that had fainted, I also found a bunch of other people.
Inside the building, I could see a line of children standing on tiptoe as if sneaking to escape.
Their faces were as white as corpses. Perhaps they were surprised by the body of the leader of the Black Box Organization who had suddenly appeared.
"Oh, I didn't expect that you guys were already trying to escape. This way, I won't have to release you guys from the basement."
A nostalgic note accidentally escaped from my mouth.
Actually, I already had the intention of freeing them from the start because they were the ones I was with when I was kidnapped by the members of the Black Box Organization.
At least they and I once had a connection.
I scanned the line of children.
Finally, I can see the face that looks most familiar in my memory.
A boy who has dark brown skin. I don't know exactly, but he looks a few years younger than me. His name is Anas. I still remember his name because he was the only child who had the most guts, was rebellious, and had the most perceptive mind.
"What's your name?"
While all the children were scared, only he alone dared to speak to me.
His name is Anas.
His nature is still the same as my first life. I still remember how he always complained to me about his suffering while being a prisoner of the Black Box Organization.
Moreover, he was the only child who often tried to escape, so he had to be tortured every day when he was caught.
Unfortunately, when the Black Box Organization was destroyed, we were separated. He and I never saw each other again. So, I don't know what fate he had in my previous life.
"You don't have to know my name. I don't think I need to explain to you that I was the one who messed up here so you guys got a chance to escape right?"
"Did you do it all to save us?"
"Hmm. Not really."
"Then. Goodbye. Thank you for giving us the opportunity to escape."
He said what needed to be said and immediately tried to leave. He tried to walk past me and tried to drag his friends, who were standing in fright. He forced his friends to leave this place in a hurry.
But, just as he and the other children were about to leave, I stopped them.
"What will you do after you run away? Do you have a place to return to?"
He and the other kids' faces appeared pale as I said that simple fact.
The reason they could be kidnapped was because they had nowhere to return to. Either someone was kicked out by their family, sold, abandoned, orphaned, or for other reasons. To be sure, they had nowhere to return to.
"Then, what kind of solution do you want to give us?"
"...."
When I wanted to say a few things to them, I suddenly had a bad feeling.
Since what I wanted to say was just an unimportant persuasion, I could shorten my words.
It would be better if I told Anas and he persuaded the other kids. Because of that, I immediately approached Anas and whispered in his ear.
Maybe he was surprised, but instead, he blushed and stepped back backward. But, I managed to get close and whisper in his ear.
"First...."
"A-are you crazy?"
He distanced himself with a shocked expression upon hearing the instructions I gave.
"Don't worry. I've killed all the other members of the Black Box Organization. So, you'll be safe."
I convinced him to do what I ordered. Reluctantly, he left with the other children.
After the children left. I noticed something else.
The leader of the Black Box Organization, who had been closing his eyes for a while, started to open his eyes.
"Now, you don't have to pretend you've lost consciousness anymore."
I told him not to pretend he was unconscious while giving him a death glare.
"You are really great. I didn't think you could knock me out. But thanks to that, my mind is clear again."
He took something out of his pocket. It was a box that contained a small round pill. He instantly pushed the small round pill down his throat until it fell into his stomach.
"My name is Gilbert. Remember that name when you fall into the deepest pit of hell, because it is the name of someone who will kill you."
Suddenly, the color of his eyeballs turned white. The muscles all over his body seemed ready to explode. Also, there was an ominous aura emanating from it.
"Hahaha, I was unsure about the effect of this medicine when that person gave it to me, however, I didn't expect the effect to be so amazing! I feel filled with power! Is this the feeling of someone being blessed by Mana...."
'Was that the effect of the medicine he swallowed?'
"Hmm??"
Surprisingly, even though he was laughing with joy at first, he suddenly stared blankly.
His two hands also went limp and fell, as if the spirit within his body had suddenly disappeared.
A moment later, before I could react, he was already near me. He hit me like slapping a mosquito. My body instantly flew away several meters.
Its power is simply unreasonable.
I can't do anything. Before, I could still win using experience, skills, and a few other tricks. However, due to the huge difference in strength, all of my weapons are no longer of any use.
From strength to speed, I lost in all aspects. But the fact that we have different amounts of mana is more significant.
Each of his attacks had an enormous amount of accumulated Mana. It was a miracle that I was able to hold on.
There was one more thing I noticed, namely, that there was no sign of consciousness when I looked into his eyes throughout the ongoing battle.
This means that he is now completely unconscious. Unlike the use of the Rage skill which only increases emotions, but right now, I feel like I'm fighting against a robot.
In the situation that kept me cornered, suddenly a system message appeared.
[Demonic Mana detected.]
[Do you want to activate the Death Mana in the Stigma of Darkness that has accumulated as a result of your killing?]
"If I can get out of this urgent situation by activating that thing called Death Mana, then I agree."
I suddenly felt a sting on the back of my hand, where the Stigma of Darkness was, which then continued to spread throughout my body. And next, the Stigma of Darkness crest began to emit a dark light.
[Target Has Been Locked!]
I believe that the target referred to by the World System is the target for Death Mana that comes out of the Stigma of Darkness, namely Gilbert who emits Demonic Mana.
And sure enough.
What happened next was quite astonishing even to me.
