Chapter 105: Farewell, City Lord

Chapter 105: Farewell, City Lord

In the city lord's mansion.

The city lord was seated beside a bed holding a cup of water. In the bed, Erika was sleeping soundly.

The city lord was gravely injured. His body was wrapped in bandages, and one of his arms hanged weirdly. This was the result of the battle against the monsters and the black-dressed men.

But there was something even worse affecting him right now.

At that moment, someone knocked on the door.

"City lord."

"Enter." The city lord replied with a calm tone. A calm tone that hid a raging storm.

The person that entered was the butler of the city lord's mansion. It was the same butler that Bloed met the first day he came to Calice City.

Today, though, his expression was nothing like that time.

Instead of calm, he was nervous, and scared?

When the butler saw the city lord, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva and spoke nervously.

" City lord, the men are back."

"What was the result?"

" The young man and the girls left. Furthermore, we can't find Sara or her sister either."

*Crack!*

The cup of water in the city lord's hand shattered.

" I see. They left." The city lord said calmly, but a powerful killing intent had filled the room.

" C-City lord." The butler shivered. He felt a powerful pressure impacting against his body, stopping his breathing.

"Heh. Do they think that they can escape after killing my son? I'll kill each one of them!"

*Bam!* The city lord punched the ground and destroyed it.

Erika, who was sleeping, woke up.

"Father"

"Erika."

" They are gone?"

The city lord nodded and hold his face despondently. He was filled with regret and sadness about the death of his son.

After the monsters were completely killed and when Erika woke up, he had asked her about the situation.

Then, he had learned that his son did ambush Bloed. Moreover, Sara participated in the encirclement.

But he had seen Sara acting together Bloed in the city walls, moreover, their relationship seemed very close. That was nothing like the relationship of someone that was attacked and his attacker.

When he thought about that, the city lord could not help but think again about Sara's words when she told him that his son had been killed by the black-dressed men.

Quickly, he found some suspicious elements. The main one being the fact that Sara was the only survivor, while the other men participating in the mission were dead.

That, and the fact that Sara and Bloed were acting together, painted a picture in the city lord's head.

Gerald was killed by Bloed.

And Sara had helped him.

" Father, what are you going to do?" Erika bit her lips and asked in concern.

The city lord clenched his fist in anger.

" I'll kill them! Even if I can them kill them personally, I'll make sure that they die! I'll inform the capital about my son's death and put a bounty in their heads! I'll not rest until I see their dead bodies personally!"

" Unfortunately, that will not happen." A voice suddenly interrupted the city lord.

The city lord was startled. He hurriedly looked behind him and saw a silver-haired girl standing in the entrance of the room.

Beside her, a tanned black-haired girl was looking at the city lord coldly. Her face was filled with hatred and rage that seemed to consume her.

" You! You dare to appear before me! Guards!" The city lord bellowed.

"It's useless." Regina smirked coldly. "They are dead, like everybody else in this mansion. Only the three of you are still alive."

Regina then looked at the butler and waved her hand.

*Spurt!*

With a sickening sound, his head flew and fell to the ground.

"Now you two are the only ones alive."

...

...

"Kyaaaaaaaa!!!" Erika screamed in fear and then started to vomit. She vomited and vomited while closing her eyes and shivering in fear.

"What are you doing!?" The city lord bellowed and tried to attack Regina. But Regina snorted.

"Hmph!"

Instantly, her psychic power turned into an enormous pressure that struck the city lord.

"!!!"

The city lord was unable to resist. As soon as the pressure impacted him, his body turned heavy and he was forced to kneel on the ground.

"You" A gaze of surprise, fear, and astonishment was directed to Regina.

"I wanted to do this for a long time." Regina smirked.

"Y-You Y-You are a demigod." The city lord stuttered in terror. How could he not understand the meaning of the pressure he was feeling.

Only a demigod could suppress him with such ease.

"You can say so." Regina replied casually. "Why? Are you surprised?"

The city lord's expression changed several times, then, he finally sighed despondently.

"Can you spare my daughter at least?" The city lord seemed to age several years after saying these words.

"Dad!" Erika panicked. But the city lord just smiled at her and shook her head.

" What a fool I am. To think that you as a demigod would lower yourself to serve a young man. All of my plans were probably a joke for you, right?"

"You are right." Regina nodded indifferently. "Everything you did was nothing more than a joke. Since the moment you decided to attack my master, you were already dead. Before this, though, you were still useful to sharpen my master's saber. Now, though, you are no longer useful, and I can finally kill you."

"Hehe Sigh, greed is the sin of men after all. I have one last question. Sara, why did you betray us? I always treated you like a daughter and Erika treated you like a sister. Why then?"

Sara sneered coldly. "Do you remember the Sviel family?"

The city lord was stunned. Then, he shook his head bitterly.

" I see. I understand now. It looks like it's time to pay for my sins."

Sara nodded with a look of hatred. Then, she looked at Regina.

Regina shrugged indifferently and took a step back. Seeing that, Sara's expression brightened.

Then, she took a dagger out and started to walk toward the city lord.

"Sister Sara!" Erika screamed, but Sara ignored her. She continued walking towards the city lord as though nothing else mattered to her.

At some point, her eyes had filled with tears. The tears run through her cheek and fell to the ground drop after drop, but she was smiling.

She was smiling happily.

Smiling for finally avenging her family.

"Sister Sara!" Erika shouted again in distress. "Please, he is my dad!"

" Sorry, young miss. But he must die today!" With these words, she stabbed the dagger in the city lord's heart.

Then, she stabbed again, and again, and again. Until she was sure that the city lord was dead.

Finally, she withdrew the dagger and left it to fall to the ground.

In tears, Sara stared at the roof and screamed.

"AHHHHHHHHHHH!!!"

Sara took a deep breath and started to cry.

"Father, mother I finally avenged you"

And she collapsed in the ground.

Regina saw that scene and sighed. She then looked at Erika and walked towards her.

Erika's state was worse than Sara. She was crying and screaming I'll kill you!" while trying to stand up from the bed.

When Regina appeared in front of her, Erika looked at her with eyes full of hatred.

"I'll kill you! I swear I'll kill you!"

"I'm sorry, but I can't allow it." Regina said coldly and put her hand on Erika's forehead. "Although you didn't attack master, you participated in the plot against him. So, you also must pay for it.

"But don't worry, you will not die, and you will not feel pain anymore. In fact, you will feel nothing."

Then, with a thought of her, a wave of psychic power invaded Erika's mind.

In an instant, her calculation zone and thought zone were destroyed.

From today onwards, Erika would become a fool.

Regina's expression was indifferent during the entire process. She did not seem to care about destroying the life of a young girl or killing tens of people.

In fact, she did not care. After all, this was for her master.

Regina stared indifferently at Erika one last time and turned around, she then pulled Sara up and pushed her out of the room

"Let's go."

Then, the two girls disappeared in the darkness of the night.

The next morning, the news of the massacre in the city lord's mansion spread to the entire city.
