BOOOOOOOOOOM
Lightning bolts from the gloomy sky rained down on Beaumont, who at the same time, shot a series of black bolts into the sky.
When the black bolt hit the blue lightning, a loud piercing explosion reverberated through the air, making the gloomy sky lit up.
"HAHAHAHA! I'm having fun. These small electric sparks aren't that bad." Priest distances himself again.
'He calls my lightning electric sparks huh? Now let's see how you deal with this.'
Beaumont suddenly dashed at Priest; as he got closer, he shot out a tunnel of lightning.
When the tunnel closed in, it gradually grew in size as though it was a huge python.
"Shit! Time to be serious." Priest came out of his laughter as he swatted the python-shaped black lightning to the side, and it disintegrated in a blink!
"I'm fucked up! This guy is too strong!"
So far, all his attacks have been dealt with quite easily. What was more, Priest was doing it casually, which showed the gap between them.
Beaumont was strong. He had faced and dealt with other supervillains just like the way priest was toying with him, but Priest…
... was just too strong for him.
'There is only one person who could stand up to this guy. Unfortunately, he isn't here.'
Shaking the thoughts off his head, Beaumont proceeded to go in for close combat.
'Since from the start he had used only lighting attacks so that could only mean he isn't good in combat.'
Beaumont's face distorted as the image of the priest swatting his python strike into oblivion flashed in his eyes.
'Wrong, he'd be strong even in combat.'
It wasn't easy to swat his legendary python bolt, so he named it because it was one of his trump cards.
Among the countless villains he had faced, only priests had dealt with it, and that too casually!
"Boy, come here. What's up? Scared? I thought you have a big dick, so why are you scared?" priest mocked.
If one could see his face, they'd have seen the giant smirk on priest face!
"I admit you're strong, but I won't go more than before a fight. I'm one of the best supes from the meta-organization!"
"one of the best? You said it yourself so that means they are better than you.
"And also, I don't think those guys would be able to fare any better as well. You're just a kid. If there is one person that can defeat me, it's that old man you call your boss."
Beaumont started feeling as though the fight was coming to an end and as expected, Priest suddenly appeared at his front.
Beaumont only saw a hazy blur as a lightning fist crashed into his face, and after seeing some stares, he passed out— Knock out cold.
Beaumont's lifeless body plummets to the ground. However, his faint heartbeat still thumped gradually.
"Sorry kid!" priest brought out a black dagger. The dagger had a Chinese alphabet with a noticeable S logo inscribed on it.
He glanced at Beaumont with hesitation. "I guess, as they say, blood is thicker than water." These were the last words of priest before fleeing the scene.
Sometime later—
Beaumont sat before a figure who seemed to be shrouded in thick shadows.
"Beaumont, how is your bone?" The cloudy figure asked as it puffed out hot smoke from his mouth.
"It's fine. But it'd take a long time for it to work the way it used to be." During the fight, he shattered quite some bones which still hurts to this moment.
"He didn't go easy on you, huh?"
Beaumont hiked his brows. "What are you saying? Aren't villains supposed to kill the supes?"
"Yeah, I know that, I'm glad though that he didn't kill you."
'Now that I think of it, why didn't he kill me? I was unconscious, so it should have been easy.'
In the few seconds that he was still conscious after the blow, Beaumont had thought he'd be waking up in hell.
However, when he woke up, he saw no one there, only the sun. It bugged him since it was a natural thing to kill him.
"You're thinking about why he left you? That's simple, he saw you as a significant superhuman. I bet if it was me, he'd not waste even a second." The cloudy figure said with a burst of light laughter.
"You two know each other? It would make sense because that guy also talked as if he knew you very well."
"Yeah, we know each other, at least, when he was still the good guy. I don't want to talk about it."
Not pushing the topic any further, Beuamout asked, "You know that I'd lose right? When you told me to face him?"
"Yeah, I just wanted to let you see why the villains must be Eradicated. Hope you saw for yourself."
"I saw it. He was a monster and with his monstrous Lighting ability which seemed like he had gotten the hang of it, I doubt even Nataliia would fare for an hour against such a person."
"Hope you learned from the encounter. You still have a long way to go. There are mountain mountains. Not to say there are more people like priests, but they keep themselves hidden.
"Eg, like that man in the white house."
'in the white house, that means it could be only the president or?' Beaumont thought. He knew this was a carefully hidden message
The president wasn't ordinary!
"A piece of advice." Beaumont gazed up as he heard the cloudy figure. "don't ever mess with the president... If you think priest was a bigger monster, then you're wrong.
"That guy is a no go!!"
"Yes sir."
It wasn't every time The big boss of the meta-organization instructed his worker to stay away from people. Only that means one thing…
'Either the president is on par with the boss or even stronger than him.'
"Now, I heard you gave institutions to Kayne about nightmare?"
Beaumont wanted to avoid this topic. After all, he was the one who had killed the rookie villain, but that same villain was now alive and causing headaches again.
"Sir, I swear, I thrust that S-ranked sword into his heart if by any way you think I'm incompetent."
"I didn't say you were incompetent, correction. What I'm saying is that you should have made sure he was dead before handing it over to the recruits."
"I'm sorry sir, but I've already asked Kayne to take him out, but if he fails, which I don't think…
"…I'll just have to get rid of him again."
