Chapter 280 280:A Pleasant Day To Kill[II]

Following Leon's voice, the entire place was wrapped in silence.

In the murky depths of the church basement, darkness enveloped everything like a suffocating covering.

Leon stepped forward with his ghostly shadow trailing silently behind him.

The place was a secret basement used by Woods to nipe the unwanted buds and not wanting to get disturbed he asked his troops to collect some fatty Pokemon's to kill.

From the shadows various figures emerged, startling them.

"Ghost!"

"GHOST!

"Don't kill me…"

"mercy…Mercy…"

Within the labyrinthine corridors, rows of iron-barred cells confined the prisoners, with formidable spirits now broken by the relentless torture inflicted upon them. Each cell exuded an aura of despair, the air heavy with the acrid scent of fear.

As Leon approached, the prisoners recoiled in terror, their eyes wide with horror at the sight of the person emitting a ghostly aura.

All they saw was a figure of a faceless human cloaked in darkness with a pair of golden glowing eyes.

Many of them didn't know him but seeing the ghosts that horrified them following closely behind the person made them wet their pants.

The mere presence of his ghostly looming figure sent shivers down their spines, their ethereal forms twisting and contorting in a macabre dance.

With each passing moment, the sense of dread intensified, gnawing at the very core of their beings.

TAP! TAP!TAP!

Every creak of the floorboards, sent waves of terror coursing through their veins, paralyzing them with fear.

The prisoners could feel the weight of their sins bearing down upon them, a heavy burden that threatened to crush their spirits. They knew that there was no escape from this hellish nightmare.

As Leon stood amidst the shadows, his eyes ablaze looking at each one of them.

At that moment, a scream pierced the oppressive silence of the basement, a desperate cry for mercy that reverberated off the cold, stone walls. It was a sound born of pure anguish.

"Please, forgive me!" The prisoner's voice cracked with raw emotion, his words echoing in the darkness. "Let me go, I beg you!"

His plea hung in the air like a desperate attempt to grasp at the slimmest thread of hope. But even as the words left his lips, the prisoner's voice trembled with fear as he awaited Leon's response, his heart pounding in his ears like a drumbeat of impending doom. In that moment, he would have given anything for a reprieve from the relentless agony that consumed him.

Strolling in the hall, Leon opened his lips, and his voice boomed, and started resonating.

"Many might be wondering why are you here while many might be thinking who did I offend or if I have taken money to get rid of you?"

"However, in fact, I don't even know most of you nor do I have any personal enmity with you."

"..."

The prisoners swallowed their saliva.

Most of them were rowdy and with a fierce personality prepared to kill at the slightest hesitation but after being brutalized they didn't have the guts to do it.

"I announced something a few days ago and as expected you all turned a blind eye to my warning.."

As if getting the hang of the situation, the wiser ones screamed first.

"Sir Leon...I won't do that again."

Someone who finally remembered the guy screamed and hit his head on the ceiling.

"Please...."

"Release us...I will give all my money."

"Yes, I will share my profits."

"I...I will serve you."

Leon just looked around but didn't answer.

But as the seconds ticked by in agonizing silence, the prisoner knew that their fates had been sealed.

There would be no forgiveness, no escape

Ignoring their mad rambling, Leon entered the innermost place.

The moment he stepped in, a colorful picture appeared in his eyes.

Strings of letters floated above them.

Inside the place was a group of people chained like animals and weren't tortured.

Why?

Because they were strong cultivators.

No...

Then?

It's because all of them are chained here other than the protagonist and as expected from the protagonists, the moment he stepped in they started to bark.

"I will kill you."

"Insolent bastard...do you know whom you touched?"

"I am the head of the Killer Organization."

"Do you know me fucker?"

"If you are a man, fight me like a man instead of sending your goons."

"I..reap you into shreds.

"....."

After a thorough search and system assistance, Leon located all the protagonists.

In total, there were 8 villains and 149 protagonists left on Earth.

Out of these 6 villains and 63 protagonists already died.

Despite the system and all those bullshit, not everyone is cut out to lead the role. After all, this isn't a web novel but a real world with the survival of the fittest.

The villain had maximum chances of surviving but except for Seph the other golden fingers were quite lame as two didn't even have a system and just knew the plot.

Out of the remaining three-fifths were here.

The rest who had been left out either needed to fully develop or were good guys.

But the important fact was, the people here were shit holes doing evil deeds.

Secondly, the power of the protagonists became weirder and weirder.

There was also a doctor with a surgeon system. Fortunately, he was a good guy and committed to his role.

The world needs protagonists like them but what it gets are..

One had the power of invisibility with which he stole plunder and killed.

One had the power to gain points by plucking woman Yin Qi forcefully and making them fall in love.

One had the power to kill and absorb the essences of life essences there.

One even had x-ray vision which was blackmailing others.

All of this was pretty sick.

Leon massaged his forehead at the sight of many screaming at him but then a voice echoed in his ears.

"BOSS! It's me...Your humble dog."

"I am I'm your side so why are you doing this to me?"

Leon snapped his head and his sight piercing through the gap fell on a long green-haired guy with dead tired eyes.

Name:Hades

Age:44

Cultivation: Half-Step Martial Emperor.

Protagonist Template:Reborn as Mafia King

Leon pointed at himself.

"Boss....I am your boss..."

"Boss, how can you forget this humble servant whom you saved and bestowed the power of the underworld."

"I am your eternal and faithful dog Hades."

The moment he said this, many pairs of killing intent locked onto him coming behind Leon.

Leon, turning his head, saw Avelin, Terpas, Liebert, and Seeker along with many shadows looking at the man with dead eyes.

It seemed this guy somehow managed to piss Leon's ghost.
