"Hoh! You're quite good ha?" The man commented at Kim Shin's ability.
"Thank you." Kim Shin replied with a simple smile as he continued. "Now, I'm done analyzing you guys level."
Kim Shin's expression instantly became solemn as he covertly uttered. "Over Limit!"
BOOOM!
Kim Shin stats instantly increased by 100 as his body bulged under his clothes along with the sudden appearance of the crimson fluctuating smoke around his entire body. He activated his bloodlust at the same time, causing a huge crater around him as the ground couldn't endure his extreme aura.
'I can't get enough of this. With this skill, my stats will be the same to level 30 wearing rare items.'
Kim Shin thought as he grinned to the dumbfounded and shivering trio before him.
"So, where are we again?" Kim Shin smiled at them as he spoke with an icy tone.
However, for the trio, Kim Shin's smile was akin to a grim reaper smile itself.
'W-What is this power?'
'I-It's impossible!'
'I-Is he a monster?!'
They differently thought as their body continue trembling.
"What? Why aren't you guys answering?" Kim Shin asked playfully as he took a step forward, and the trio took a step backward every time Kim Shin move closer.
Narrowing his eyes, Kim Shin suddenly took a big stride as he suddenly vanished. Well, to the trio eyes, Kim Shin suddenly vanished. However, to be precise, Kim Shin only moved faster than their eyes could catch.
"W-Where is he?!" Juan uttered as he cautiously looked around him. Then, out of nowhere, Kim Shin's voice resounds behind them.
"Are you looking for me?"
"Hiiiiik!"
Shivering uncontrollably, the trio slowly turned around as if they are broken machines. And what showed before them is Kim Shin's widely smiling face, causing them to jumped back in fright.
"F-Forgive us!"
"W-We won't bother you anymore…"
"P-Please don't kill us… me…"
Despaired and apologizing voices of the trio reverberated in the surroundings, which infuriate Kim Shin.
"Why would I do that?" At Kim Shin's question, a different voice not coming from the trio responded to him.
"Because they are my men!"
Raising his head as he looked in the distance, Kim Shin found a man clad in a dark robe, however. He could discern the leather armour beneath it.
Even with this kind of disguise, Kim Shin knew this man's identity. As he couldn't stop himself from smirking, "Why are you wearing like that? Do you think I won't recognized you under that robe, Johnson?"
Johnson, Boar Fangs Brotherhood member, the person who blocked them as they just got enter the town.
"Tsk. So, you did an investigation about me…" Johnson muttered as he didn't deny Kim Shin's assumption.
The shivering trio, on the other hand, hurriedly turned around when they heard Johnson's voice as they scampered behind him without a second thought.
"Brother, Johnson!" The leader of the three idiots called out as he held on Johnson's left leg. "Thank you for coming at the right time, Brother!" He gratefully said.
However, contrary to his expectation that Johnson will help him to stand up, Johnson instead, kicked him on the face, pushing him back on the ground.
Bam!
"Boss!"
"Boss…"
The two stout men were momentarily taken aback as they immediately helped their boss without hesitation.
"Joaquin, If not for brother Fang I won't bother helping you," Johnson said in a cold tone as he glared at Joaquin, who's eyes are widened in shock while clinging on the shoulders of his men.
Joaquin, couldn't help but feel gloomy by Johnson's words. It's true that if it wasn't because of his big brother Fang who's a higher-up member of the Boar Fangs Brotherhood, they won't care about him. However, at the same time, he couldn't stop himself from having a resentment to Johnson.
'They're always looking down on me…' Joaquin grudgingly thought.
"Now, leave! I have a matter here to settle." Johnson said in a commanding tone as he turned his attention to Kim Shin.
"Just like what I said yesterday. It wasn't the end." Johnson spoke to Kim Shin as the trio behind began to walk, about to leave without a word. However, before they could move far away, Kim Shin's cold voice resounds behind them, stopping their track. "Who said that you three could already leave?"
The trio doesn't know what to do, as they looked at Johnson who's eyebrows are twitching after Kim Shin ignored him.
"You noob really had the guts to ignore me, eh?!" Johnson bellowed as if his veins in his neck would break at any moment.
"You're so noisy!" Kim Shin nonchalantly commented as he picked his ear in annoyance.
"What did you say—" Johnson's words abruptly stopped as he saw a huge fist flashed before his eyes, and his mind immediately went blank.
BOOOOM! Crack!
< You've dealt 5, 750 damage! >
< You've obtained +25 energy! >
"Urghk!"
The ground shook heavily as the ground cracked along with the loud explosion, causing some small bird-type monsters on the trees to flew away in shock.
"J-J-JOHNSON!!!" Joaquin stammered as he cried out when he discovered the stupefying situation.
Johnson was unconscious on the ground with open mouth, with white foam coming out from it, as Kim Shin's fist printed on his face.
Joaquin couldn't comprehend what happened. Johnson was just talking earlier and in just a blink of an eye, Johnson was already down on the ground. Condition is unknown!
"You're skull was surprisingly tough!" Kim Shin commented as he eyed the unconscious Johnson while wriggling his left wrist that ached after he punched Johnson.
Crack!
A metallic cracking sound could be heard as the circlet on Johnson's forehead broke into pieces.
'Seems like this is a life-saving item... What a waste!' Kim Shin thought as he realized the reason why he didn't manage to blast Johnson's head.
"W-W-What are you?!"
"M-Monster!"
"D-Demon!"
The trio began to shiver once again, as their back soaked in cold sweat.
"Me? I am—" Kim Shin was about to answer and tease the trio. However, he suddenly squinted his eyes when he felt a number of presence around them, hiding in the dark shades of the trees.
'Tsk. He brought a reinforcement with him. You really think big of me. I'm flattered!' Kim Shin thought as he stared at Johnson.
'However, I need to kill you now. I don't want you to come and bother me later. I don't have enough time to play with your kind!'
Gripping the hilt of his sword with a weight of 4 pounds, he then raised it over Johnson's body with both hands. And when he's about to pierced Johnson's chest. A loud shout resounds in the distance, hoping him to stop his action.
"STOP IT!"
However, instead of stopping, Kim Shin only smirked as he unhesitatingly pierced Johnson's heart.
PUCHI!
< You've obtained +25 energy! >
This time, Kim Shin's sword easily pierced through Johnson's heart, as if he cut through butter. That's how sharp his sword is!
Johnson couldn't groan in pain anymore as he immediately died. And the trio was gaping in shock, as they couldn't stop Kim Shin from killing Johnson because of fear creeping inside them.
"NOOO!!!!"
A heart-wrenching and agonizing cry of a man reverberated kilometers away.
"Graaaaaa! I WILL KILL YOU!!!" The man vowed with a tone of voice filled with hate and malice.
Upon hearing the man's words, Kim Shin slowly pulled his sword from Johnson's heart and leisurely raised his head, turning his attention at the man who's swiftly running to him.
The man had a silver-white brushed up hair, diamond-shape face. Wearing an iron light armor with a wolf-like head pauldron on his left arm, and armed with silver-iron gauntlet.
This man is also familiar to Kim Shin.
Judas Bautista. Johnson's Brother. Second Vice-Leader of the Boar Fangs Brotherhood.
"I WILL FUCKING KILL YOU!!!" Judas bellowed furiously as gray hair began to appear on his face, along with his body starts to increase in size, causing his speed to become faster as it flashed towards Kim Shin, with pair of crimson eyes.
He was followed by the appearance of over 10 members of the Boar Fangs Brotherhood.
Whoosh!
