Chapter 42 - I warned you, didn't I? (2)

'Why is he here?'

"Please go away. I don't want you to get hurt because of me. Please leave.'

Andrea is in no position to help him. Even though her body is paralyzed, her mind is intact.

To her surprise, David Foster showed up here out of nowhere.

There are a lot of questions running through her mind.

'Did he follow me? But why did he come down? He could have simply escaped if he had seen what had happened. He could have informed the authorities about this.'

But he did neither. He came down directly.

Is he foolish or else there is something else to him?

He is the one that told Andrea to be careful. If that is the case, then he wouldn't indulge in something that would cause him damage.

Is he confident enough to face Liam James?

Andrea Lewis's mind was in jeopardy.

"I wondered who had come. It's just you."

"I need to thank you for saving my time in finding you as you yourself came to me. But..."

"Huff...huff...huff..."

The pressure released by Liam James was overwhelming, even for Andrea. He didn't go all out again Andrea Lewis before.

"... You disturbed me when I was having fun. For this, the punishment is no less than death."

Liam James emitted a horrendous blood lust towards David Foster.

'No'

Andrea is cursing herself for what's going on here. If only she wasn't that fixated on getting help. If only she had paid close attention to her surroundings, things wouldn't have come down to this.

If only she was strong. Her desire for strength is growing.

To her surprise, nothing has happened to David Foster. He looks completely fine as if the pressure and blood lust didn't even affect him.

'How?'

Even for someone like her, it was difficult to withstand. It was difficult to withstand, but he didn't even seem to be struggling.

As for Liam James, who didn't even acknowledge his presence, didn't even bother to notice that he didn't get affected by his pressure or blood lust. He was too level-headed.

But Andrea, who was lying there, noticed it. It was a surprise even for her. She knows, to some extent, that he might be hiding his strength, but that to this extent has taken her by surprise. It was David that informed Andrea regarding the change of circumstances.

"But let me give you a chance. For some reason, I'm in a good mood.

Kill yourself and get done with it. It would be better to kill yourself than be killed by me. Kwhahaha.."

David didn't reply. He was standing there silently. She could see a small smirk on his face.

As if he was not even bothered by Liam James. There was a certain aura around him that made him look unique.

"Why are you still standing there ideally? Go on, kill yourself quickly. I hate to see your face any longer than that."

Liam James was arrogant. He was unable to see the real person who was standing in front of him.

David Foster was laughing while looking at him.

Then he took out his sword from his subspace and pointed it toward Liam James.

"Do you know what will happen if you look down on people?"

Then the surrounding atmosphere started to change.

Andrea noticed his eyes. His eyes were pitch black. They were showing no emotions. Even his face was devoid of any emotions. It's as if they were erased in an instance.

There was a certain pressure that was emanating from David Foster. It was not an overwhelming experience like Liam James showed. It was different. It was neither weak nor strong. It was precise. It was cold.

It was sending shivers down her back. That's how precise it was.

"If you look down on people,

DEATH WILL BE BESTOWED UPON YOU!

Now then, let's get started. "

David told Liam James while having a smirk on his face.

It was an unexpected situation that Liam James hadn't expected. It caught him off guard.

Anger can be visible on Liam James's face.

For a lower-ranked fool to come and challenge him, that's bound to get his ego hurt. The person that should be begging on his knees to spare his life is now pointing his sword at him. And he was even smirking at him.

"Hahhaha Hahhaha Hahhaha..."

Liam James burst out into laughter.

"Interesting, very interesting."

Liam James was quite surprised and shocked at the same time. It didn't appear on his face as anger took control of it.

As an individual who ranked two times as high as him, he was bound to make his pride hurt. It is a world where your rank and power take the center stage.

When a no-name bastard points his sword at him, it will hurt his pride. He becoming angry is imminent.

"Death, ha? You will bestow death on me, ha? You...? Hahaha.."

Liam James was laughing like a mad man.

"I thought of giving you a chance of easy death, but you are insistent on dying in my hands, so I can do nothing about it."

Liam James was emitting his full power. Even Andrea was shocked. She knew that he didn't go all out against her, but to see their power was to this extent was unbelievable. It was almost at the rank of C-. It's as if he was hoping for a breakthrough.

"I will give you the most horrible death one can think of. You will beg me to kill you and then let you live. You want to seek peace in death, as you won't be having any peace while living. Hahaha..."

Liam James rushed towards David Foster with his full power.

"I will cut you into pieces and make you eat it yourself."

In an instant, he was in front of David Foster, who was still standing while holding his sword. Even for Andrea, it was difficult to intercept when it was coming at such a speed.

"What happened to your arrogance just a second before? Huh?"

Liam James launched his attack. It was a powerful one. There is no doubt that if someone from a lower rank takes a hit, they will perish on the spot.

Even when the attack is coming, there is no movement from David Foster.

'No'

Even Andrea, who was watching this from a distance, definitely felt that David Foster was going to die. It was imminent. That's how powerful the strike was.

But to their surprise, the attack just passed through the air. It looked like it had cut David Foster for a second, but that was just an afterimage.

"Huh?"

The one most shocked was Liam James.

-Woosh!

-Spurt!

A large chunk of blood was dipping in front of Liam James.

"What happened?"

Suddenly, his sight is getting shorter.

Then he touched the left side of his face. There was a huge cut on his face. He noticed that his left eye was missing. It's more like crushed. That's when he realized that the blood that was dipping in front of him was his own blood.

"Khwaaaahhhhh...!!!"

Liam James let out a huge scream. He was in so much pain. He fell to his knees. He doesn't know how that happened.

His elegant figure from before is no longer visible.

With all the blood on his face, he looked more like a demon.

Black veins slowly started to appear on his face. His face was already a full mess. He was unable to comprehend what had happened.

David Foster was standing behind Liam James, looking down on him.

Andrea, who was watching, was in full shock. She was also unable to comprehend what had happened in front of her eyes.

For a second, she thought David Foster had perished. But to her shock, it was Liam James who had fallen on his knees. It happened at such a speed that she didn't even grasp what had happened.

'How did Liam James get hurt?' that was the question that was running through her mind.

"H-how DARE YOU!!!"

With a roar, Liam James marched like an enraged bull towards David Foster. His rage completely took over him. He didn't even realize that he was able to see his opponent attack.

But before he could launch his attack, his right hand was sent flying.

-Click.

Blood started to gush out one more time. But this time it was even more than before.

He couldn't see what had happened. It was even faster than before. Before he knew it, he lost his hand.

"Khwaaaahhhh...!!!"

Liam James once again let out a horrible scream.

There was an unknown emotion that was running through his body.

Fear.

This is the first time in his life he felt fear.

Then he looked at David Foster, who was standing in front of him. This is the first time he observed his opponent. He didn't even realize it up until now. This was the pressure that his opponent was excluding.

It was cold. bone-chilling cold.

He then looked at his eyes. They were cold. No emotions. It's as if he met some high-class members in the Void. They also had the same kind of eyes that he has.

The eyes that say what is in front of them are insignificant. He didn't even attack him when he fell. It's as if he isn't a threat that needed to be considered.

'Run. I need to quickly run. I need to inform the higher officials about this. We can't let such a monster grow any further.'

He wants to escape from here.

"How boring."

Shivers ran down the spine of Liam James. Even hearing his own voice makes him dwell in fear.

"Let's end quickly. Shall we?"

David instantly vanished from his position.

He appeared in front of Liam James, who was planning an escape. But that seems too late now.

Liam James decided to block the attack, but suddenly David vanished from his spot and appeared behind Liam James as if he was teleported.

As soon as Liam James becomes aware of his presence, he takes swift action to repel his assault.

Liam James then understands it was a faint.

Then, from behind, a sword began to cut into his heart.

When he was about to turn, he noticed his body didn't move. It's more like it refused to move.

-Click.

-Spurt!

Then he notices David Foster piercing his heart from the front.

"H-how..?"

Spitting a large amount of blood, Liam James looked below him where a black sword pierced his heart.

It happened so fast that he didn't even have time to react. He turned around to see two emotionless eyes looking at him.

That was when he realized he had no chance from the start. If he had noticed before, then there could have been some chance. No, even then the result would be the same.

'There was such a monster hiding in the shadows that they didn't even realize. Hehe...'

-Thud!

Liam James fell to his death without knowing how he died.

David cut his heart precisely to avoid any kind of mishap. He was happy to live in the shadows without any trouble. So that's why he didn't leave any kind of sword marks on his body.

Then David started to walk towards Andrea Lewis.

Right now, she was in great shock. She didn't know what had happened in front of her. She believed that he was hiding his power, but that to this extent came as a shock to Andrea.

Liam James died in the hands of David Foster without any struggle. The same Liam James, by whom she was defeated without even landing a single strike. That was beyond her imagination.

Seeing him walking towards her made her uneasy.

His emotionless eyes looked down upon her. She looked back at him. To say she is not afraid of him is a lie. There is no way she wouldn't be afraid. If he has any ulterior motives, she can't even face him.

Silence engulfed them. Neither did he speak nor was she able to speak. It made Andrea's heart beat faster.

"Forget what you saw today." David broke the silence.

'Huh?'

Those were the last words that she heard before she felt a little tap on the back of her neck. She then totally lost consciousness.

Then David immediately took the arrows from her quiver and went to where Liam James' corpse was lying and started to inject these arrows into his body.

-Spurt! - Spurt! - Spurt!

After stabbing all the arrows in his body, David made sure that there were no traces of him found. He erased all his traces with Andrea's.

He left from there immediately.

"He will be here soon."

"Damian Lewis."
