'It makes me feel excited!'
I would soon regret these words.
I was having a usual evening and the weather was not too hot nor too cold, just decently warm and comfortable. I thought about King Bavner's words and was having a dillema. On one hand, I wanted to live a carefree life, on the other, I wanted to fight stronger enemies and protect the kingdom along the way, since I'm the only one with an authority in this kingdom. Does that make me stronger than Bavner onii-chan's telekinesis which could still block my attacks albeit me almost shattering his barrier? No, I'll still have to spar with them so that I can gain battle experience with other humans instead of fighting monsters. And unlike in a dungeon, civilians may get involved if I fought in the city. I can only leave it up to the King and Houzo to guide me if that time comes.
Elsewhere at the edge of Harox city:
(at dawn)
"Heheh, this kingdom will be really easy ton conquer. I've finally gotten my hands on an authority and a partnership with you." (?)
"Well, you certainly tried your best in convincing me for years. I didn't think you could get your hands on an authority like that. At that point I was more of a hostage then a trade partner, but whatever. Since you're my ally instead, this makes it much easier. "(?)
" Oi, how long do you think it took me to get this authority? It took years of effort tracking down the merchant you know? Those slimy merchants would keep passing to another of their brethren, and I had to slaughter all of their resistance with my 'sin'. Of course it would take years, when a merchant fights back with their authority, retreats and disappears for a few months like nothing happened. Too bad, they were too low level to see the full description and exploit the authority."
(Resume to normal time when Emily was in her bedroom)
Screams of terror echoed through the streets of Harox. The occasional high level attacked the invading duo but...
One group of citizens managed to run to Emily's residential district that was inbetween Harox city and the school. "Run! Invaders from another kingdom have attacked! All the high level adventurers! Even Chris the great was slain! We have to evacuate!"
At this point, Emily kept thinking about what the king said and had fallen asleep. "kuuuuuu~ *loli snore*" Opening the room, Emily's mother lightly slapped Emily's cheek awake. "Wake up! We have to evacuate! There's 2 invaders from another kingdom and even the level 780 Chris couldn't defeat them!"
With those words, a beam of white light blasts through and disintegrates the wall, 'thank god my mother was not harmed!' Emily thought.
Everyone outside had been evacuating, a wild beam of light had destroyed part of my bedroom. Lookin at the source, I saw a guy with taller than average height, combed back blond hair, black coat that reached his hips and a white shirt. His pants was made of high quality black leather and his eye had a black sclera, grey iris and black pupil. As if he wasn't human, his irregular eye colour and stoic expression didn't help either. It was as if he looked down and didn't value human lives and was a complete alien. In the distance, there was a family where the father put up a magic barrier to block magic-based attacks, in other words energy.
With a flick of his hand, the blond fired beams of white light from the air at the barrier. What happen? You may ask. It was simple. There was so much energy surging that the barrier could not deflect enough and just got overwhelmed. The barrier wasn't broken by any chance, the beam of light was just so much that it went through and ignored the barrier, erasing that family from existance. Tch, even if I have immortality, if he managed to erased every single one of my cells like what I did with the lord of the abyss, I will be erased as well. At this point, I glared at the blond from anger. He just erased a distant neighbour, they were simply nice people who wanted a peaceful life, so they moved to this kingdom thinking it would be the best.
Two more blurs appeared in the middle of the street. After a second, light reflected properly and I could see who they were. Bavner and Houzo were going to confront the invader. Without a second thought, the invader recognised them and rained destruction in a huge area, erasing the whole area.
"Kugh! *Thud*". The sound of someone next to me collapsed rang in my ear... Turning my head, my eyes widened. My breathing was slowly getting unstable. *Hu, hu, hu, hu.* "Emily... I know you are strong... But please leave it to the king, kuu! *cough*You have to keep living on... For us."(mum)
"NO! [CLEA-"
Just as I tried to heal her, a second rain of light came down and disintegrated even her corpse. I wasn't receiving a lot of damage since I was able to heal it away with immortality. My father was struck by the rain of light and died earlier since he was waiting outside with our luggage. My desire to fight that blond consumed me even more. Unable to think straight, I didn't think to reverse time and retrieve my parents. No, all I was thought was kill, kill and kill. After all, my last attachment to this world was gone. Now, I can let lose as much destruction as I want. No more... of that warm dinner when I come back from school... No more...of my mum trying to wake me up so I don't oversleep... no more surprising my parents with new feats of strength... TCH! Clicking my tongue with the hardest impact I could muster, I accidentally bit my lip. Blood dripped down my mouth and into my collar bone along with the tears that streamed down my cheek. I went berserk.
