Chereads / The Wandering Immortal / Chapter 18 - Anti-Climactic Battle

Chapter 18 - Anti-Climactic Battle

A battallion of people are marching towards the store, in their hands were either knives or guns. In the middle of the battallion, there seated Ezra, sitting calmly on his litter, a human-powered vehicle.

People who are carrying the litter sweated like crazy.

'This battallion is a bit overkill, but it would be a huge slap to his face,' Ezra thought while looking at the small restaurant's silhouette getting closer.

He poked out his head in the small window and shouted, "Charge!"

...

Levi didn't know what to do, he felt like his brain couldn't handle the stress he is getting looking at the charging battallion of people, getting closer to the restaurant.

Kate, Justin and their friends also looked out the window, they didn't know whether they would run or just hide in this small restaurant, they simultaneously looked at Apollo who is sitting behind the counter, reading on his phone and laughing from time to time.

Noah and Justin both shouted, "Boss!!! There's a ton of people charging towards your restaurant!!"

Apollo looked at the people outside, getting closer to the restaurant and then he went back to reading, "No shouting."

As the battallion got closer, their footsteps also hasten, Levi couldn't think straight because of the pressure. He wants to help Apollo fight them off, but the most he could take down is only a little over fifty because the people Ezra sent were all experts.

As Apollo swiped for the next chapter of the novel he is reading, the words 'To be continued' were written on the top left side of his screen as the review page of the novel popped up and below that are recommendations of other novels. He cursed under his breath, he looked towards the battallion charging at his restaurant, a small smile grew on his face as he stood up from his chair, 'I could finally vent my anger to the author without destroying this universe.'

Apollo walked slowly towards the restaurant as the battallion charging at his restaurant began to slow down. He stood in front of the restaurant, waiting for them.

Levi looked at Apollo, seemingly dumbfounded, same as the other customers.

The people charging laughed as they saw their first prey, they hasten their footsteps and ran towards Apollo who is standing in front of the restaurant calmly, the people in front mocked Apollo as they got closer, "He's probably too scared to even move, HAHAHAA"

They got closer, 30 meters... 20 meters... when they got 15 meters away from the restaurant, Apollo released a sliver of his aura and directed it towards them.

The pain it caused them is so bad that not even half of a percent of his aura made them all stop in their tracks and flopped to the ground, some were crushed to the point that it broke all their bones, some still handled it but could only move their finger.

It felt as if the gravity was twenty times stronger than normal, the scene was horrifying, in the charging battallion, only half could endure the pressure Apollo is putting out, blood filled the ground which looked so serene a few moments ago.

Half of the battallion survived but some of their bones were broken, the people who couldn't handle the pressure all died. Ezra looked at the scene, dumbfounded at the guy standing in front of the restaurant. Levi also looked at Apollo, dumbfounded at his strength, even though he doesn't feel the pressure of Apollo's aura, his hair still stood up at the thought of Apollo trying it on him.

'This seemingly normal restaurant has more secrets than I thought,' Levi thought as he stared outside, bodies littered the ground and screams lingered the air. He didn't know how to feel, should he be horrified or grateful at the restaurant owner's strength.

Ezra stared at the ground, Apollo leaked out a percent of his killing intent and directed it to Ezra, his shouts could be heard in the scream filled air before he fainted.

Apollo frowned as he stared at the scene in front of him, 'I-is this it? I couldn't even lift my arm and they died just like that?', his face turned expressionless as he walked inside the restaurant, everybody's gaze locked on to him as if he's a monster.

He tapped the frozen Levi and said, "Could you clean up the mess outside? Thanks." He walked back to his chair and browsed his phone, "Oh, a new chapter!"

Everyone's jaw dropped as they heard what Apollo said, all sorts of things came to their heads, 'W-was that it? No cool fighting? Nothing?'.

Levi still stood frozen in place, 'I-i w-worried for nothing?'

He sat down to reorganize his thoughts, racking his brain for an answer to what just happened but couldn't find an answer to it.

Meanwhile, Apollo became angered again because he just finished the chapter he is reading and would wait again tomorrow.
