Chapter 87 - Chapter 87 - Burning bridges

Entering through the window, Joren appeared in Jill's room and she was busy cultivating. He saw that she was already packed. On his way here, he checked to see if Lena was still there but she wasn't. 

'Looks like she left when I told her to.' 

He packed Jill's bags in his storage ring and waited for her to finish cultivating. 30 minutes later, she opened her eyes and exhaled. 

"You ready?!" 

"EEK! Oh, Joren, it's you." She sighed in relief 

"Yup, it's me." He pulled her in close and kissed her on her juicy lips. She wasn't a good kisser but that didn't matter to him. He gave her breast one good squeeze before breaking off the kiss. 

"It's almost time to go, but there's something you need to do." 

"W-What do I need t-to do?" 

"Burn old bridges." He grinned from ear to ear.

"Wh-What do you mean?" She could feel shivers being sent down her spine. 

"Kill your parents." 

"W-What?! How could I do such a thing?" Although she didn't see eye to eye with her parents, that didn't mean she wanted to kill them. 

"Listen here bitch, you are mine now, I get to decide how your future is going to be. If I tell you to do something, you do it! Understand!" His bloodlust leaked throw the air striking fear in Jill. Her breathing staggered, she clenched her chest in pain, she felt cold, as if death was breathing in her ear. This one moment would shape Jill forever as she would never disobey Joren ever again. 

"Y-Yes, I-I-I understand." She said shivering in fear. 

"Good. Now, let's go." 

They walked through the house, entering her parent's room. Joren pulled out a dagger from his storage ring and handed it to her. 

"Right in the chest." He spoke softly 

She gripped the knife, her hands shaking as she did. She wasn't like Joren, she didn't know what death was like. She had never seen murder before, and now he wants her to kill her own parents. 

She took a deep breath and stabbed her father in the chest, missing his heart. 

"ARGHHHHH!" He woke up in pain, confused by what happened. 

Her mother also woke up shocked and confused. She turned to her husband just to see Jill holding a knife in her hands while her husband bled out. 

"Ahhhhh! Jill, w-what are you doing?!" 

"Don't mind her, just finish what you're doing," Joren said. 

"Wh-Who are you? What are you doing in our house? What did you do to mu daughter?" 

"Heh, I've shown her the light. Kill them." 

Jill stabbed her father in the chest over and over and over and over and over and over again. Blood went everywhere, the walls, the floor, the ceiling, and all over Jill's face and hair. Her mother also got sprayed with blood. 

"J-Jill." 

Jill turned to her mother and walked to her slowly. 

"N-No, no stop it. Jill, please, this isn't you." 

"Shut up! I just wanted to live my life!" She stabbed her mother. 

"Make my own future!" She stabbed her again 

"Learn magic!" And again 

"Find someone I love!" And again

"But you just-" And again 

"Wanted me to-" And again 

"Rot here in this-" And again 

"FUCKING VILLAGE!" And one last time, she stabbed her mother in the chest. She was already dead, but Jill was getting her frustration out so Joren didn't stop her. 

"Good. Now, there's one last place we need to visit. Follow me." 

They exited the house and walked along the street to Eli's house. 

"Next, you have to kill your beloved Eli." Joren teased 

"I don't love him! I love you!" Jill shouted 

'Well, that was unexpected.' Joren stuck out his hand and his mana force grabbed on to Eli, who was sleeping in his bed and dragged him outside. 

"Arghh! Cough, Cough! W-What just happened?" 

"Hello, buddy. Now, time to die." 

"Huh, Joren? What the hell are you-" He noticed Jill covered in blood with a knife in her hand. 

"J-Jill, w-whats going on? Why are you covered in blood?" 

"I never liked you. I never wanted to marry you. You were going to take my future away, so, I'm here to take yours." 

"What?"

'Something's wrong with Jill, she's never like this! Joren, he must have done something.' Eli got up and charged at Joren. He activated his mana in full force, but that did nothing as just simply released his mana which forced Eli to his knees. 

"You're nothing but a bug in my eyes. I don't feel like staying here any longer. Jill, kill him." 

She stabbed Eli in the chest, piercing his heart. In his last moments, he looked at Jill confused why she would do this to him, but sadly, he would never know. 

"What's going on here?!" Eli's parents came rushing out of their house but died instantly as Joren used the wind to chop off their heads. 

"Come, one last place." They went to Trey's house and upon entering, the sound of moaning could be heard. "Wow, even with dicks in their mouth they still moan loudly. 

They walked upstairs and entered the room and saw Freida and Helen getting fucked like crazy. 

Helen looked at Jill for help but her eyes widened when Joren kissed her and played with her breast. 

"Look Jill, the last of your connections to this village. From this day forward, you are mine and only mine. You were never from this village, you never had parents, you never had these friends, you always belonged to me!" He used his fire to set the house ablaze. 

"Yes! I belong to you! I love you so much! Mmmmh~" They kissed and Joren grabbed her, floating into the air and breaking through the roof. He could hear the screams and moans as the girls were still getting fucked while being burned alive. 

They hovered high above the village and Joren used his mana to keep Jill afloat. He then extended his arms and channeled all the power that he could. The air blew violently, the water from the river crashed with intensity, and the ground trembled with tectonic force. Balls of fire were formed in the air and lightning crackled in the sky. The trees and all other plant life went haywire as they started to grow rapidly and destroy buildings. 

Clenching his fists, Everything came crashing down on the village. The wind sliced people into bits, the water drowned the elderly, earthquakes sucked people into the ground, a raging fire burned throughout the whole village, trees and plants strangled everything in its grasp, and death rained down from the sky in the form of lightning. 

Within an hour, everyone in the village was dead and there were no survivors. Everything was destroyed, nothing was left in its place, and Joren smiled and the last person drew their breath. 

"Now, we're done here." He grabbed Jill by the waist and rocketed off in the direction of the capital. 

...

Three months passed since Joren destroyed the village and started his travel with Jill. He decided to take this time to train her and help her with cultivation. 

He didn't have time to teach her martial arts so he taught her basic self-defense and also taught her how to use aura. She finally cultivated enough mana to properly be classified as a cultivator and now only needed to work toward filling her ring with mana. 

Along the way, they came across bandits or people who wanted to rob them so he used them as practice for Jill. Currently, there were three bandits tied up and were being used a practice for Jill. 

"Are you ready?" Joren asked 

"Yes." 

"Good." He released a bandit and he came charging at her. 

The bandit delivered a flurry of punches which Jill dodged albeit with some difficulty. For someone who only had three months to learn self-defense, she was doing pretty well. 

The bandit went for a right hook but Jill blocked it with her left arm then palm struck the bandit's nose. 

"Arghhh! Fucking bit-ARGHHOOOOOO!!!!!" Before he could even curse Jill, she kicked him in the balls as hard as she could. She then punched him in the face, tripped him, pulled out her dagger from the sheath on her hip, and stabbed him in the throat. 

"Good Job. You're getting better." 

"It would be a lot easier if I could use mana." Joren restricted her from using mana in this situation as he wanted her to not rely on mana for every situation. 

"Trust me, you'll understand that relying on mana without building up your own physical skills would only stunt your growth." 

"I want to be a mage though." 

"You can be a magic swordsman or daggerman I guess, haha." 

"Okay, time for the next one." 

After killing all three bandits, they continued traveling.

"Are we going to that bandit camp now?" Jill wondered

"Nah, I've decided to put that off for now. I don't feel like doing anything until entering the Academy. I've got something else in mind." They arrived at a Town's Gate. 

"Ahh, Bakers Town, boy do I miss this place even though I've only been here once." He headed to the gate, handed over his ID, and entered the town.

"Are we meeting with your friends?" 

"Yup." 

"Do they know you're here?" 

"Nope." 

"Then how do you know they're here?" 

"Magic." 

Walking until reaching a certain establishment, Joren looked up at the sign, smiled, and entered the Mercenary Guild.
