Wait wait wait. 3 months passed by in a flash. What happened?
Leonidas returned to school and everything went back to normal. Well, mostly.
Ever since he came back he would notice odd looks from people. Even his classmates would look at him oddly as if he was a cute little monster.
Rumors about what had happened that day had spread through the grapevines of every grade and class, some of them labeling him as a bloodthirsty maniac, others putting him up as a demon incarnate.
Of course when people saw him they would be apprehensive, not knowing what to expect. Leonidas did not care about any of that. He focused on his school work and any other engagements he would have to have.
One of these engagements was the school psychiatrist, Ms Liebentag. She was a jolly lady with large green eyes and a large nose to boot. While other women her age would move gracefully, she would look like she was skipping and hopping. No wonder people called her the frog lady.
Of course the way the psychiatrist looked wasn't the reason she was hired. She was insanely talented. She had a way of getting someone comfortable enough to start talking, and although her questions seemed innocent, they would reveal her patients deepest darkest secrets.
Leonidas was not phased about this at all. Their meetings were set to once a week instead of the 3 times per week set by the principal after Ana's thorough Domination.
In their first meeting, she dropped a bombshell and asked him why he truly felt the need to go that far. Leonidas felt no need to hold back the truth, so he looked at her with those dark deep indifferent eyes and told her his philosophy.
"You see, Ms Liebentag, I believe that life is like a desert. The desert is relentless, dry, and fair to all. People can only wade through the sands searching for anything that can keep them alive."
"As a human, it's only fair that you get desperate. Your will to live is constantly screaming at you telling you to do whatever it takes to survive. So ofcourse it's impossible not to offend some people"
"While you're wading through the desert, If someone gives you a cup of water, you must repay them with an Oasis"
"But if someone rubs salt on your wounds... Slit his throat and use his blood as a Sacrifice to the God of the Rain"
"..."
After months of work, the lady gave up and diagnosed Leonidas as a generally 'docile' high functioning sociopath with sadistic tendencies.
In class, due to the existence of his Soul Database and his natural intelligence, Leonidas showed his brilliance no matter the occasion.
Ever since activating the Soul Database, the first thing he did was read textbooks for his classes and the classes going up to the twelfth grade.
In tests he would score 100%. In speeches he would score 90s and in class his behaviour was one of an excellent student. One could see that despite the rumors about him, this was a brilliant young man who definitely had a lot of talent.
On the final day of the first semester in late June, as the principal was reading out the names of all the learners who received academic achievements, the only reason Leonidas' name was not called out was because there wasn't enough data on him. He'd only been there for 3 months instead of 6.
And so, the school semester ended. At the end his classmates had various feelings about this handsome boy. Some felt envy or apprehension, while others felt surprise or appreciation.
But there were a few who hated him. One of those being Julian. Julian's marks had been top of the class since January. But ever since Leonidas came, he was relegated to second place.
Worst was, he could do nothing about it. No matter how he studied, cheated, bribed his way he still would either be tied or below Leonidas. Julian felt unwilling and using his rich father's connections began researching Leonidas.
Mark and his group of boys on the other hand, had grown apprehensive of Leonidas. Mark came back to school 2 weeks after the incident but ever since then he never spoke to Leonidas. But everyone could tell that he still held some anger and unwillingness. He was just incapable of retaliating.
The girls in his class had grown appreciative of Leonidas. But that was it. He kept to himself and would never cause trouble unless it came to him. There were even a few girls who jokingly spoke of Leonidas as a potential boyfriend.
In the same grade as him, some boys were unwilling to think of him, a tiny kid, as strong. So they challenged him. They were met with terrifying resistance and crushing defeat, all to the dismay of the principal and the psychiatrist.
Leonidas had made it a habit of breaking people's bodies whenever they fought him. His reputation as a heartless demon soared as a result.
Leonidas' businesses were going extremely well. Using Ana's contacts, he was able to get acquainted with a real estate agent by the name of John Micheals. The agent managed to get Leonidas his first factory building, which Leonidas started filling up with servers and hardware for Zoom.
He also got acquainted with a business manager by the name of Michaela Shell, and drew up a contract whereby she would be the acting CEO and Manager behind his 5 businesses when he wasn't active.
Michaela did not let him down as she handled all the business legislation and affairs very efficiently. Luckily, there was no need for any other employees. Leonidas estimates that he would need them by the year 2013 so all in good time.
He used the rest of his funds in Plutus' accounts, approximately R5 million, to set up trading positions in the forex market everyday and he had a 100% win rate. He was even leveraging his trades by 20x.
After 2 months, that R5 million became R10 billion. Plutus became the backbone for the major funding of projects and payments to employees across all his businesses.
Using this money, Michaela and John bought more factory buildings and infrastructure in preparation for Zoom's expansion. Things like trucks, and assembly lines for packaging.
In the last month, Michaela hired 5 more competent managers who were placed under her to manage each business. She also gave them autonomy to hire qualified people for positions that needed filling.
By the end of June, all five companies had a company building and some factories which were constantly being upgraded. And new employees were being added to the team everyday.
Now in July, Leonidas was waiting for his dear uncle in a dark smelly alleyway.
Leonidas had used a tier 3 *Blood Connection* array to find his nearest blood relative. This array was normally used in battlefields to find long lost relatives, but now Leonidas was going to use it to take out the trash.
Unknown to Sanele, Leonidas had been mind controlling him ever since he found him drinking in the brothel. Leonidas used a tier 1 mind domination array to inspire Sanele to stop drinking, pay his tab and leave in the direction of the alleyway.
When Leonidas sensed the arrival of his scumbag uncle, he couldn't help but be delighted.
And ofcourse his uncle would notice him too.
"Uncle Sanele, it's been a while hehe", an unassuming voice of a prepubescent teenager rang through the alleyway.
Sanele was astonished. He looked in front and saw someone familiar.
"Leonidas? My boy... Leonidas haha what are you doing here. Did that white lady kick you out? I knew it. The only people you could trust at the end of the day is family am I right?"
Sanele stumbled forward almost falling over out of happiness. He was prepared to kidnap this kid right now. Family? What bullshit. As long as he had money he could do whatever he wanted.
But would Leonidas make it that easy?
"I've been craving this for a long time uncle", Leonidas said while licking his lips. He had a demented smile on his face. Just imagining all the ways he could disfigured his piece of trash uncle almost had him aroused.
In his first life, Leonidas was incapable of finding Sanele after he was adopted. It turned out, Sanele's luck ran out. One of the relatives of the gang found out where he stayed. In 2013 he got stabbed 12 times and ended up dying in an alleyway.
Dying like a dog. As expected of Sanele.
'Does he have a thing for alleyways?' Leonidas thought to himself.
That's right. Leonidas was about to kill his uncle. In the cruelest way possible. And he would enjoy every single moment.
"Haha Leonidas, come with your uncle. Don't believe all the nonsense they're talking about. Come wi-"
As Sanele was approaching Leonidas, he realized that he had a searing pain in his leg. He looked down and saw that his right leg was gone. Blood was spurting out of where his thigh was supposed to be like a broken faucet and pooling on the dirt ridden ground floor of the alleyway.
What's happening?!
He didn't even have time to scream as his other leg got dismembered from the hip. But his body was still floating in midair. He tried to scream but the was no air in his lungs. Despair hit him like a flood. He pissed himself right then and there.
What is happening to me?
Unknown to him, Leonidas was weaving runes into arrays even before his trash uncle arrived. As soon as the uncle arrived, Leonidas unleashed one of his favorite tier 2 arrays, the *Air Cutter*.
How it works is, it condenses air into a disc shape and rotates all the air molecules contained inside the disc around the disc's center. What that creates is a saw blade, made of air, that can even cut through solid steel.
Of course Sanele's bones would be mere putty in comparison.
Sanele's nightmare continued on. He saw Leonidas raise his arms and point. Both of Sanele's arms were instantaneously crushed up to his shoulders. Broken bones splattered everywhere on the floor.
Sanele watched as all this happened. He didn't even feel pain he was just watching as his body got destroyed.
How did Leonidas do this?
Leonidas controlled his tier 2 mind domination array to shut of all the pain receptors in Sanele's brain. The *Mind Domination* array could not only implant ideas, but also shut off a person's awareness of his own body.
Leonidas then used multiple simple tier 1 *Force Application* arrays to apply 1000N worth of crushing force to Sanele's arms from every direction. Of course Sanele's arms could not keep from turning to mush.
All the while, Leonidas had applied a tier 3 *Spatial Stabilisation* array to keep Sanele's body in the same place, position, and orientation no matter what forces are applied to him.
With another swish of an arm movement from Leonidas, Sanele's whole upper body twisted and rotated until his it looked like a rolled up piece of paper.
What Leonidas had done was deactivate some of the arrays from the *spatial stabilization* array to allow rotation. Then he used a tier 2 *force application* array to rotate the piece of trash's body until he was all rolled up into a cute little... Whatever he was.
Then Leonidas closed his fists and Sanele's whole body and, even his lifeless legs lying on the ground, exploded into tiny little pieces. Sanele's last look wasn't one of fear, but of confusion. His whole life he had never imagined someone was capable of doing this. He died just like that.
Leonidas used the *force application* array on every single cell on Sanele's body such that every cell around it would be repelled. This was a tier 3 application of *force application* and Leonidas loved to use it. Leonidas just loved fireworks. Even if they're bloody... and disgusting... And not made of fire.
Leonidas used another array, a tier 3 *Vibration Application* array, to clean up the scene. All the organic matter started vibrating against each other and disintegrated into ash.
Even Sanele's soul, that was trying to go to the Limbo, wasn't spared. It was directly devoured by Leonidas in hopes of finding any memories or clues to the other idiots who ruined his life.
"Uuggghh... Disgusting"
Next, Leonidas jumped up while he activated a tier 3 *Force Application - Flight* array and his body flew off, never to be seen that night again.
'Rest in peace, mom, dad, lil bros. Took too long but I finally got half the revenge. The rest is coming soon though. Don't you worry. '
