Chapter 149:
First
_______
'Vincent' acted like a scared man. He liked to see the despair this scum will feel when death will knock on his door out of nowhere.
As he was about to act, the unexpected voice rang out from behind them.
Before they reacted at the newcomer, no one noticed as 'Vincent' slightly snapped his fingers before looking in the carriage's direction.
"Selena? Elder Skylar? Is that you?" a young female arrived with a group of other girls who wore their sect robes.
Selena looked back as she remembered this voice.
"Jessica? What are you all doing here?" asked Selena as she noticed that these groups of 10 girls were from the Untouched Flower Sect.
"We are here because of you. We heard that you and elder Skylar will soon get married, so we came to the celebration banquet that Rhett Trest was holding today in Terek city," said Jessica as her eyes widened from the clothes they were wearing.
"By the way, why do you wear such slu- exquisite clothing? Is that for that Rhett? Is he that good that you decided to wear this so openly to please him?"
"So it was really him… Amazing," uttered quietly, Skylar, but then her eyes widened as she stared at Jessica, "Wait… Whose wedding did you say?"
"Nice to meet you, Elder Skylar. Even though I heard a lot about you, I didn't have a chance to-" Jessica bowed and wanted to introduce herself, but was cut off.
"Answer the question, Jessica, and add more details," urged Skylar as anger filled her heart.
"Em, okay. I don't know much, but I heard that the sect leader announced that you and Selena will be married to Rhett Trest from the Rising Tiger Sect. It happened after you two took a mission in the elven kingdom and left the sect. So my friends and I came to this city after we heard a rumor that today there will be a banquet holded by Rhett to celebrate your marriage and your official disband from the sect," explained Jessica.
Selena's hands trembled just like Skylar's from anger. Then, they both looked at 'Vincent' to see his reaction.
He just calmly stood beside them and listened to Jessica's words.
Jessica also noticed how they glanced and looked at him too.
"Selena, who is this man with you? Is he your slave or something?" asked Jessica curiously as she can't find anything special in his look nor even sense his aura to be worthy of standing beside them.
Selena slightly jerked as she heard her calling 'Vincent' a slave.
Skylar didn't react like Selena but instead moved to stand in front of him before smiling.
"He is not a slave, but my real yet-to-be husband. Oh, and we are not his wives, but just one of his concubines," said Skylar proudly as she exposed her status to Jessica and others.
'Husband? Only concubine? You, who is a 3rd rank mage?!' screamed in her mind Jessica as her gaze was stuck to 'Vincent'.
"Let's go," said 'Vincent' as he dropped his act and calmly moved ahead the night road.
"What about those carriage men?" asked Selena as she, Skylar, and Demi catch up, leaving a stunned group of girls behind.
Skylar and Demi also were curious about what he would do.
'Vincent' stopped his tracks and looked back at her with a calm smile before continuing his walk.
"What carriage men? I don't know what you're talking about?" said 'Vincent'.
The trio was confused, but then they heard a woman scream behind them.
Inside the carriage, the owner was not alone, but with one of his young women.
After 'Vincent' snapped his fingers back then, the man's eyes, nose, ears, and mouth began to bleed.
*Thud*
The blood flows down on his lips and chin before falling down on his legs.
This sudden change brings fear into the woman nearby.
'Huh? W-What is this? What is going on…?' said the man shockingly in his mind as he wiped his nose, but the bleeding didn't stop.
Then, he suddenly heard a calm voice in his ears that made him tremble as the aura of 4th rank out of nowhere enveloped him.
"Scum like you have only one place…"
The bloody man's eyes widen as he looked through the blood at the man he disdained to even looked for.
He saw 'Vincent's' calm crimson eyes brighten for a moment and despair emerged in his heart.
The carriage owner's mind also goes blank.
'I… I see now. So that's why… Ha… Hahaha,' now he could understand why those women were with him and why he can't sense his aura at all.
Because he was a fucking 4th rank mage.
The person who matches the leader of the Rising Tiger Sect in power. The person he will never be able to reach.
"M-Master…!? What is wrong with yo-" let out the shocked woman, but then something happened that will put an internal scar that will not leave her for her lifetime.
"... It's hell," these were the last words he heard before…
*Boom*
The man's head blew up.
His hair, skull, blood, eyes, teeth, tongue, and brain matter stained the entire cabin.
*Thud!*
His headless bloody corpse fell on the floor.
The woman was not harmed, but all of that fell on her too, staining her his strong stench that almost made her puke.
She looked with wide eyes in horror as she screamed before collapsing.
The man who rode the carriage was not spared either, but his death was not so messy as his master's.
He looked as if had just fainted, but in reality, he fell into permanent sleep where 'Vincent' will be his eternal nightmare.
…
Skylar, Demi, and Selena didn't see the death of the man in the carriage, but since they could not sense his aura anymore, they understood that he left this world just like the rider.
Judging by the woman's scream from inside the carriage, she should have seen something horrible.
Understanding this, the trio brightly smiled. Even though that man was a weakling, he was scum. And when scum dies by the hand of their man, how could they not feel the excitement?
