The supreme sovereign system

Chapter 283 - Beat Down

"Respon…sability…" Murmured Dionisius.

"Yes, responsibility," Said Alfonso seriously.

Leonardo looked at Alfonso's answer, he didn't expect that Alfonso would answer like that, nevertheless, for him, this was just a small surprise, nothing more.

"No matter the outcome, I win" Though Leonardo.

Dionisius looked in disbelief at Alfonso, he was sure that Alfonso would help him.

"Why would he help me?"

Suddenly, this thought came into the mind of Dionisius.

"Yeah, why would I think he would help me? We aren't that close to begin with and I can't command him to save me… after all"

"I am a human now"

The sudden realization made Dionisius face fark. This gave a rose in new emotions in Dionisius.

"Why? Why did I have to go and kill him, just crippled him would have to be enough!"

"Why didn't I check the bedroom with my soul power, it would have been a piece of cake for me, with that, Rebecca wouldn't have die!"

"Why did I fight against America when I didn't even know her powers!"

Regret.

For the first time in his life, Dionisius was feeling regret.

Dionisius turned to look at Demeter.

"Aunty, help me" Said Dionisius.

"…" Demeter didn't say anything, she turned to look at Alfonso who looked back at her.

After some seconds, Demeter sighed and just shook her head.

This made Dionisius felt even more desperate.

"The penalty for killing someone… is death" Said coldly Leonardo.

America went forward and took out her sword, pointing at Dionysius's head.

"Wait… wait…" Murmured Dionisius.

"I am… I am sorry, I shouldn't have acted like that…" Said Dionisius.

"You think that just a small apology will pardon your mistakes?"

"You are way too naïve" Said Leonardo.

 "Then… what can I do for you to forgive me?" Asked Dionisius.

"Mmm…" Leonardo put his hand on his chin like he was thinking carefully.

"Usually, I wouldn't let this kind of offense go away… but… since this is a special case, I indeed had something that you can help me with" Said Leonardo.

"What is it?"

"Convince him, to turn himself" Said Leonardo pointing at Alfonso.

Alfonso didn't seem surprised by this.

"So, you finally showed your true colors" Though Alfonso.

"Of course, I won't kill him, I can promise you that" Added Leonardo.

Dionisius looked at Alfonso for some time.

"What… what do I do? If I had my powers as a god…!" Though Dionisius.

 Dionisius felt the pressure coming to him, he didn't know what he should do or what he should said.

"That doesn't matter right now, I have to figure out how to convince him…"

Alfonso was calmly looking at Dionisius at this point, he wanted to know what his decision will be.

"The actors are on the stage, is the only amount of time before the curtain falls" Though Leonardo.

After a couple of minutes, Dionisius finally talked.

"Uncle, I want to take responsibility" Said Dionisius.

"…" Alfonso kept looking at Dionisius.

Dionisius took a deep breath before smiling bitterly.

"I will take responsibility" Confirmed Dionisius.

After thinking very hard, Dionisius finally concluded that he didn't have any right to ask Alfonso to take the punishment for him.

"Uncle warn me, but I didn't listen"

"There is not a single argument that can justify what I did"

Finally, he understood what Alfonso was talking about.

"At the end, the actions that we take are only ours"

Dionisius looked at Alfonso and said

"Uncle, I am sorry"

"I am sorry for being such a kid" Concluded Dionisius.

Leonardo looked at Dionisius and frowned a little, however, his face returned to normal in a second.

"It's not what I wanted but I win anyway, his power is too annoying" Though Leonardo.

"I accept your apologies"

However, just as Leonardo was about to give the order, he turned to look at Alfonso who was smiling.

"And I am proud, that you finally accept your humanity" Added Alfonso.

"?" Dionisius didn't understand.

Alfonso moved forward until he was in front of Dionisius.

"Both gods and human make 'decisions'"

"But… only humans make 'mistakes'" Said Alfonso.

Alfonso turned to look at Leonardo.

"Set him free" Said Alfonso.

"I will go with you"

"Eh?" Dionisius was astonished.

Demeter frowned.

"I knew it, this guy…" Though Demeter.

"Ha, I knew that Alfonso Lockheart was a kind lord" Said Leonardo sarcastically.

"Yeah… after all, it's only a visit yes?" Answered Alfonso with the same tone.

Leonardo looked at Alfonso.

"It seems that this guy looks down on me… interesting" Though Leonardo.

"Alfonso Lockheart, as you might understand, the punishment can indeed be avoided by you visiting my manor, but you also need to understand that the family won't be able to forgive this guy so easily" Said Leonardo.

"What are you trying to said?"

"I thought that, to ease the family's pain, you should receive some of the pain that they are going through" Said Leonardo.

He made a gesture with his head and, before the five lords, four men appeared, they were big and biffy.

"…" Alfonso looked at the four men and Alfonso understood.

"How dare you" Said Demeter while taking a step forward.

However, Alfonso stopped her. He looked at her and shook his head.

"Leonardo" Said Alfonso.

He looked back at Leonardo and then said with a cold voice.

"Don't push me"

Leonardo looked back at Alfonso and smiled.

"I am being kind enough to think in the family that has to suffer the lose a dear one at the hands of one your people… who knows, maybe you planned it"

"NO! Uncle didn't have anything to do with it, I-!"

"Silence"

*PUM*!

Leonardo said coldly and America pounced Dionisius to the ground.

"Make your decision while I am still being thoughtful about you being having the Lockheart surname, or maybe I should just go with the execution?" Said Leonardo.

"You…"

"I don't have your time, Alfonso Lockheart"

Leonardo looked at the four men.

"Then, what it should be?"

Alfonso looked at Leonardo.

"This motherfucker" Though Alfonso.

"So? Alfonso Lockheart, what it should be!?" Said Leonardo.

"…"

"Go for it" Said Alfonso.

Leonardo smirked and then looked at his men. The four men advanced towards Alfonso.

"And don't you dare fight back, or else…" Said Leonardo.

"…" Alfonso didn't say anything.

"DO IT" Said Leonardo.

A brutal scene occurred.
