Chapter 243:Your Despair Is My Amusement

243  243:Your Despair Is My Amusement

When the dust and debris dispersed, a battered figure no worse than a bloody pulp of meat and withered bones appeared.

Leon smiled widely but suddenly turned his face to the side while leaning back. Soon a Scythe covered in dark flames passed through the previous location where his neck had been, barely missing its target.

Demonstrating exceptional flexibility, Leon kicked the figure who attacked him stealthily, thus throwing the figure away, and with that maneuver, he achieved more leverage to push to the ground.

BOOOOM!

Wang Tianmeng, who was attacked like a kite from the cut string, was tossed around but Maz and Tang Hao appeared behind him and caught him.

Steadily rotating in the air, Leon's image flickered and he appeared on the ground.

SWOOSH!

A figure emerged above the top of Bloody Harold and pressed his foot over the head.

Leon was about to crush it when a piercing sound echoed.

"STOP IT, Leon!"

Max figures darted across the face followed by Seph and various figures of families.

"Leon, if you kill a Martial Ancestor you will be the enemy of the entire Federation and every family will haunt you down till the last breath."

"Yes stop it and we let it bygone begin."Wang Tianmeng screams.

"Nooo!"A soft murmur emerged from below Leon's feet.

The soft voice came from Harold who was slowly recovering.

"Leon, leave my grandfather. And we will both step back. I am prepared to swear a Martial Oath."Seph shouted with a blank expression

At that time, Seph was really frightened. Though he acted tough, his heart drummed heavily against his chest.

Just a few punches and a Martial Ancestor was gone.

If Leon was just as strong as Martial Saint he would use system points to break through to Martial Saint but all of this was naught. He needed to step higher but the problem was he didn't know how much higher he needed to go to defeat this guy.

"Leon, I am now speaking to you as your Grandfather. Believe me, I am just thinking about your well-being. I don't want you to make an enemy of the entire world."

Max's voice became hoarse and moist.

His eyes almost pleaded and looked desperate.

Leon put down his head and stared in the opposite direction.

In his sight, a few familiar figures appeared but ignoring them his sight fell on a beautiful woman.

His grandmother…

He didn't know what he was doing but he had an urge to look at her.

As their eyes met, the figure smiled and gave a brief nod as if signifying something making Leon smile.

A bafflement was shown in everyone's eyes as they wondered what he was looking for.

But the moment they saw him smile, their voices struck their throats.

"Grandpa...."

Leon muttered with the soft sweetest smile like that of a loving grandson.

"Yes!"Max nodded, his eyes shining with a tense glint.

'He is too strong. I need to survive. I knew these shitholes won't let him go so I just need to escape and as for what you do in the federation, I don't care. I just want to get out of here safely.'

As Max waited for the next words and was prepared to run away the moment Leon stepped back, his grandson's next words blew his mind.

"Grandpa, just go and fuck yourself."

"HUHHH!"

They didn't even have time to react when a thunderous blast shook the place.

Raising his feet, Leon stepped on the ground.

BOOOOOM!

A dense amount of qi erupted from his body as he stomped on the ground making a deep crater inside the crater.

"NOOOOO!"

Immediately, after that Maz, Wang Tianmeng, and Tang Hao let out a bewildered scream and accelerated toward Leon that had been covered by a veil of dust but on reaching there to their absolute belief, all they saw was a thick puddle of blood and a wriggling mass of flesh.

"It's over...."

Wang Tianmeng muttered with a despondent voice and almost held his head in disbelief.

QUAKE!

The world started crumbling and lightning erupted in the sky like a blazing fire.

A fierce wave of pressure emerged from the air.

With a bewildered shriek, Maz roared with bloodshot eyes.

"LEONNNN!"

"Do you know what you did just now?"

"Hmmm! I just killed a weakling. So what?"

A different voice like the wrath of heaven dismantled the bolts of lightning reverberated in the sky.

His voice sounded terrific like a burst of thunder crackling at everyone's ears.

The words were quite arrogant but this exactly arrogant word struck everyone's heart and stabbed them.

Because most of them in some way have used the same words.

People might need a justification to kill.

But they don't...

They just kill whoever they want and wherever they want.

All because.....

The opposite side is weak...The fact has always been clear.

You are strong so you can always do what you want.

A strong person doesn't need justification.

Good...evil....nothing matters.

When you have power every evil deed of yours can be branded as good and when you have none, every good deed of yours will be branded as evil.

That truth you will learn when you face life for real.

All these shit and stupid people crying for justice preaching good on the internet might sound grand but in the end, all this amounts to nothing unless you have the power to do what you believe and say.

Staring at the figure, Seph clenched his fist trying to control his bursting heart.

'System, what are the chances of me being able to survive?'

[H...Host..]

Seph's heart was set to blaze when he heard a trembling voice coming from the system.

The system was trembling...

No, it was utterly afraid….

Afraid….The almighty system was afraid…

This was something that Seph couldn't even believe in his slightest dream.

 [Host, the chances of others are close to zero as for you.....]

[No matter what scenario happens from now, I don't think it's possible for you to..]

The system didn't finish the words but this was exactly what brought Seph to the edge of despair.
