383: Your killer

Your killer

Even mercenaries like Ultima and Vortex have done nothing but give up their System Deity who has been their partner from the beginning. So are the Instructors.1

Their situation could be said to be really hopeless because they also cannot leave ordinary people alone.

Kiko's friends also tried to fight back, but after the guns were pointed at them, they cowered. Their System Deities were also took from them.

After collecting the System Deities, a member of the criminals again whispered to their leader. "Boss, you see, most of the people here seem to have wearing expensive jewelries," after saying this the leader immediately ordered the jewelries to be taken.

Yana and Rea noticed that the criminals were staring at their jewelries. So when the leader of the criminals called them to approach, the two were hesitant to follow his wishes, not because of their selfishness, but because the jewelries they were wearing had great sentimental value for them.

The rings Rea was wearing were from her mother. Another one of these rings was a sign of her being royalty of the Mangrove Kingdom. So no matter what happens, she couldn't just give them away. Yana's necklace was from her only family, her only brother. For Yana, nothing was more important to her than her brother. So whatever he gave to her, she gave value into it without equal.

Because they disobeyed the orders of the criminal leader, the leader became very angry. "Boss, it looks like those two don't want to follow. I think they are trying to test your patience," said one of the members of the people in black.

The leader frowned and approached Rea and Yana as he pointed his magic-based gun at them. Though nervous, Yana stepped in front of Rea. "I'll take care of it, Miss Rea." No matter what happens, she had to protect the princess because that's also his brother's wish. Rea was surprised. She didn't think Crimson's sister was so brave. But, she immediately withdrew what was on her mind when she noticed the trembling of Yana's shoulder.

Yana felt the gentle touch of Rea's palm on her shoulder. After Rea did that, Yana suddenly heard the calm voice of the Princess. "Uh, Yana, it's okay." Yana looked behind her to see the princess. After turning her head to look past her shoulder, she was greeted with a slight smile. He also sees no fear and worries in her eyes.

"Uh, Miss Rea?" Yana called in a questioning tone.

Rea smiled and said, "Don't worry," it was Rea's only answer to her.

At that moment, the leader had already arrived in front of them. "You two are pissing me off! You are challenging my patience. Get ready to beg and cry now!" Said the leader of the criminals as he angrily aimed the gun barrel at them.

Everyone's eyes widened when they heard what the leader said and when they saw him approach the two girls. Amid the commotion, everyone thought, 'What are they waiting for? Do they want to perish? I hope they don't get us involved in this madness!' Most of the people around felt worried. 

From behind the leader, his companion said, "Boss, let's just finish these two so that they can serve as a lesson to everyone. It looks like a corpse is not enough to act as a deterrent for these fools. Hehe." A little gleam could be seen in his companion's eyes as he said this. From what comes out of his mouth everyone could tell that this one was truly a heinous criminal.

The leader's mouth stretched out slightly at the opposite sides. "You're right." After saying that, at that moment, the eyes of everyone around widened. As well as Chloe's eyes that were just next to them.

"W-Wait," Chloe stood up and tried to stop the leader's plan. But, "Shut up!" 

Fwoosh!

Guh!

A slap with the back of the palm hit Chloe in the face. Chloe groaned at the moment of impact.

"Miss Chloe!" Yana exclaimed. She felt a little guilt.

"Heh!" The leader sneered at Yana and said, "Do you think you have time to worry about others?" The leader asked while pointing the gun at Yana's head. "Now, say goodbye!" The leader thought this girl was cute. However, he got really angry. So they should blame themselves for whatever was going to happen to them now.

Some people close their eyes and others look back to avoid seeing the gruesome fate of the two girls. There were also others whose eyes had widened.

Instructor Goki shouted, "Wait!" However, there was no hesitation when the leader pulled the trigger of the gun. At this point, Rea pulled Yana and hugged her.

But, before the leader could finally pull the trigger, suddenly, a shadow passed in a flash in front of his eyes. The leader's eyes widened the next time when he saw the familiar arm fly while still holding the gun. It was as if the incident was played in slow motion in front of his eyes.

In the next second, the arm sprang up and fell to the floor. It seemed like time stopped at that moment as everyone was watching at the arm in puzzlement.

They wondered whose arm was that, but soon, they heard a loud shrill.

"Gyaaahhhh!"

Simultaneously, everyone looked at where the shrill came from. They saw the leader of the criminals, trying to stop the spray of blood on the cut in his arm. The area around him was immediately dyed in red, in just an instant.

What?!

Everyone was wondering what happened at that moment. But soon their ears picked a fast-spinning sound. *Wring!* When they glanced, they saw a familiar object. It was a crimson-colored chakram. The chakram was gliding in the air as it flew around.

After seeing it, an image of a person came into their minds. Right after thinking this, they heard a dull sound when a pair of shoes landed gently on the concrete floor of the spectator's podium.

It's him! The player who defeated the FireGod, who was also known as the WarGod. This person was the person who slew the said God. He was the only GodSlayer! The player who goes by the name Crimson! They shouted in their mind upon seeing him. Now, it may also be good to call him GodSlayer Crimson. Everyone agreed to it without the need for conversations.

Yman landed in front of Yana and Rea. He wasn't in his Black Magician mode now.

Upon seeing the familiar back, "B-Big Bro..." Yana called out softly. Her eyes started to feel hot and teary.

Yman glanced past his shoulder. When he saw Rea and Yana were safe and had no gashes or scrapes, he sighed in relief. 

"Y-You! Who are you?!" When Yman heard the person in front of him angrily ask, he returned his gaze in front. His eyes were colder than any glaziers in the world. There was no ounce of pity in them.

He stared at the leader of the criminals. At the corner of his eyes, he saw Bob lying unconscious at the right front of him.

"Y-Yman…" he also heard Chloe call him in a weak voice. She was currently sitting on the floor while wiping the blood in her mouth. Her face was swollen.

He slowly opened his mouth. "I am soon to be your killer."

After hearing it, the leader widened his eyes once again. He gnashed his teeth. "Hrgr! Bastard!" He yelled as he summoned a black sphere in his other hand. This sphere was known as Shadow Sphere. It was difficult to defend because of the uniqueness of the element it was composed with.

Shadow Element was one of the rarest elements a human could have.

However, before he could fire the Shadow Sphere, the person in front of him already disappeared. He also noticed a hand was gripping his face at that moment.

'Wha-?! How?' It was the only question that came to his mind as he didn't even see when he moved. His speed was too unbelievable!

Yman then smashed him on the floor.

Bam!

Guwah!

The ground shook at the moment of impact. Blood spurted out of his mouth when the back of his head hit the hard concrete floor of the spectator's podium. It created a pit with thousands of cracks on it.

But that didn't seem enough to kill the leader. He was still conscious and alive, albeit so dizzy. However, it was only the start of his misery. Yman mounted him. He also wasn't finished yet. He followed up with a punch right in the face of the leader.

Bam!

"W-wait—"

Bam!

"Wai-wait—"

Bam! 

Bam!

Every time the leader tried to say something he was greeted with a punch. Blood along with different liquids came squirting out of his face. Everyone was dumbfounded, even the other criminals.

There was no way Yman would let such a person alive after pointing a gun at his sister. The only family he had. 

The person who occasionally whispered the words at their leader snapped from a daze and said, "Hey, bastard take this!" He pointed the gun at the young man, who was continuously punching their leader. He didn't waste time and directly pulled the trigger.

"Brother watch out!"

He heard his sister's warning. The beam came out of the gun's barrel and shot directly at Yman. But at that moment, *Wring!* The chakram came back and blocked the beam. It already took the form of a shield.
