Chapter 69: Smile
"You're Ender!"
The dwarf's metal fortress turned on its engine. It heated, and many gearing sounds reverberated within Leon's fortress as it transformed into something else. It became like a mini giant, with long metal arms and short legs. From within, the dwarf's voice loudly rang out as though he had a microphone.
Leon stood with a special smile plastered on his face. "Yes, I'm Ender. Is that a mecha?"
Within his mecha, Bert squinted his eyes. "The otherwolders call it a mecha! You must be one of them! No wonder someone wants your head! And I shall deliver by turning you into another victim of the Dwarven Kingdom's Craft!"
"Some want my head, others want my cock. I'm already used to it." Leon shook his head, finding the man's words entertaining.
At this point, he ought to laugh at others vying for him.
People would always drag him into their affairs, for the man with a peak humanity's body was an answer to many problems in this world. Similarly to his previous world, many individuals yearned for Leon's talents and character, wanting to use him for their profits.
Everything was about profits, in fact.
Leon also compared the two worlds and their practices. In his previous world, esports companies often and mercilessly broke contracts with players whose potential didn't live up to their expectations. Those players could lose their job in the middle of their work, which was cruel.
And as many of them were young, it was even more devastating to their psyche and careers.
But Leon wasn't an angel, either. After becoming a better human, he always gave a chance to others, but not too much time, for that pro player career was rarely long. Thus, he'd kicked some teammates on his own, for his name alone carried more weight than anyone else.
Bosses listened to him, for he was the best.
In the Freya World, things were even crueler, though. People killed others for a profit — even fishing could become dangerous as water monsters lived in the waters. For instance, some would purposely invite such monsters to improve their business.
Life wasn't a fairy tale — Leon knew that.
But he also knew that he had more potential than anyone else, that he paved his path, and that those barring his way suffered tremendous losses.
Thus, Leon's killer mode's simple — a confident smile.
He makes his enemies question themselves: those can be very simple questions, such as [Can I win against him?] or more complex ones, such as [Is he hiding more?]
To all questions, Leon would gladly give an answer.
[You have used the Nine Fire Spirits Arts.]
[You have used The Royal Vampire Hunter's Red Claws.]
Leon's chains burst with flames, circling around his right arm. But as he additionally used another skill, Leon's crimson weapon went through another change. Like a centipede's legs, those red claws sprouted. Now, Leon's crimson chains had really become like a living being ravenous for some blood!
With those horrifying chains spitting flames, Leon took a wide swing and threw his weapon at the mecha. His enemy reacted by raising his metal arm and bringing it down.
Leon's chains cleverly went around the mecha's arm, tightly wrapping around it.
And then, those red claws started digging like a chainsaw, inducing sounds worse than someone scratching the blackboard with his nails! The metal pieces peeled off rather smoothly, popping off in all directions and slapping the mecha's face as though trying to shame him.
Leon clenched his chains and drew them closer, aiming to trip down the dwarf's craft.
? He had done it effortlessly.
BANG!
His confident smile hadn't wavered at all.

Louise had returned to her master's side first.
She didn't join the battle as her master didn't need her help. Looking deeper, it appeared that Leon was trying new stuff, so Louise didn't want to stop her master's growth.
She hovered her cold eyes at the mecha with her arms crossed beneath her voluptuous chest.
A few minutes later, the black-haired beauty joined her side. Celes didn't appear any different from her usual self, and no one had wounded her. But for some reason, the smell of booze was too strong on her.
The vampiress had quickly dealt with her enemies. "I'm only late because I had bitten off their necks."
Louise didn't react to those words, still focusing on Leon's battle. Inside, her heart kept beating fast as though trying to hammer down her coldness. She felt nice since Leon had been absolutely dominating the dwarf.
Celes also trained her eyes at the show.
Leon's chains had torn off the mecha's arms already. After that, Leon simply let them go. The crimson weapon crept down to the mecha's leg, clearly aiming to immobile him. With them coiled around the leg, another process of attrition had begun, scratching the ears of all viewers.
Leon didn't stay idle, too. Since his chains had already proved to be a real challenge to the mecha, and none of his self-defense systems could deal with it, he shrank the distance between himself and the dwarf, climbed up his mecha, then balled his fist, sinking it into the metal defense.
His body was the better weapon, for his fist easily went through the mecha's defense.
Leon latched himself on the mecha's left shoulder, his right hand aiming to tear down its chest. He wanted to drag out the dwarf from his self-proclaimed proud craft. He was strong but kinda slow, and it'd take some time for him to get to the cockpit.
Still, Leon's chains did another splendid job.
The mecha's left leg had lost most of its 'flesh', breaking like a thin branch and separating itself from the mecha. The dwarf's whole form swayed to the side, dropping low.
Leon kicked it and somersaulted away.
After dropping onto his two feet, he lifted his head, grasped his shirt's collar with two hands, shaking off all dust, then pierced the mecha with his red eyes. "It's over."
His chains went through the hole he'd created by punching, eating their way to the dwarf's cockpit.
In a few seconds, the last scream of the dwarf escaped his mouth. "The last and the sturdiest defense… Broken like that!"
Leon turned to his friends, smiling at them.
That smile gripped their hearts, for it was so much different from his 'killer mode's smile', as though he'd some skills to excite them.
With the dwarf's fall, Leon could only finish his task and leave the split spirit realm!
He took out the collar and new chains, strutting to the broken mecha.
[You've successfully enslaved the dwarf, Bert Hammon.]
