Chapter 142: Torture

He sent a kick to the person named Jakuzen and elbowed the person behind him at the same time. The two were sent crashing on the wall and the floor.

The others stared with wide eyes, doubting what their eyes were seeing at the moment. 

They tried to clear their eyes by rubbing them. But the situation in front of them had remained the same.

For real? That weakest person in the academy had the power to knockback their two strongest members? And it was Jakuzen to boot!

Rou, who was in a daze, slowly opened his eyes. His body was aching and a smell of blood was strong in his mouth. He spat and saw his saliva in scarlet color.

"Dammit…" He muttered while wiping the blood on his mouth. "You dumbass," Rou angrily grunted then pulled himself standing.

Seeing Eman calmly standing in the center, "I will kill you bastard!" He summoned magical energy onto his body then attacked him.

The next second, he groaned and fell on his knee when a strong impact was felt on his stomach. His eyes trembled and he felt dizzy. A searing sensation was felt in his chest. 

BLEURRRRGH!!! Gastric juices together with blood, tears, and snot were gushing out from his mouth, eyes, and nose.

"!!"

"B, bastard…" he muttered with killing intent. Then he vomited once again. "Urgh!" Suddenly, he felt a hand grab the back of his neck. "?!" Then he was dragged. "Dammit, what are you doing?! Release me, bastard!!!" He shouted and struggled. Weirdly though, he could not budge the hand that was gripping him.

Right at this moment, they heard thumping sounds together with the trembling of the ground.

They stared ahead and saw the rapidly approaching Jakuzen with bloodshot eyes.

Then, Roe felt his vision blurred, no, he was thrown to the approaching berserk Jakuzen!

"OORRRHHGGG!" Jakuzen growled and waved Rou, who was thrown to him.

Rou was hit on the face and had his body thrown away. Although Jakuzen was in a rage, he knew the current situation. He knew that it was Rou that was thrown to him. The only thing that puzzled him was the strength of this person in front of them. How did it happen? How was this man able to knock back him? However, his only thought at the moment was to crush this person, and possibly kill him. Like how his brother died in that shitty mission.

Eman parried the rapid multiple attacks that were raining down on him. A moment later, he successfully grabbed the enemy's arm. He used his Stun Finger. However, he noticed that it wasn't so effective. The enemy was able to break from being paralyzed.

He then used his other hand and summoned 50 soul energy and sent an uppercut that landed on the enemy's jaw.

Jakuzen's body flew upward. Yet, he wasn't finished, he followed up with a kick. But because he couldn't summon yet his soul energy on his feet, the power of his kick wasn't strong enough to deal considerable damage. Still, Jakuzen was thrown back once again.

A loud impact reverberated inside the Redwing clan. Then silence remained in the room. Standing in the middle was the man they deemed as the worm, the weakest person in the academy.

On the person named Rou, his red bar above his head was at 55% left, while on Jakuzen there was 50%. However, the fun was just started.

The others were still dumbfounded. Their comrades took a beating from the person they least expected.

Everyone could not tell if the world was near the end. Why are they seeing impossible things happening in front of them right now? And when was this man able to summon magical aura? Did he awaken? Even so, it was still impossible that he outmatchted them.

Even though they were flabbergasted at what was happening, they summon their magical energy and fire elemental attacks. "Dammit! Don't use fire!" Warned one of them to his comrade who was about to use a fire elemental attack. "Sorry!" He said sorry and materialized a sword. Then he coated it with fire.

While his comrades were raining magical attacks in the form of water blades and wind blades, he waited for the right time to strike. Unexpectedly though, that person had managed to evade all their attacks. If he didn't see it with his own eyes, he would never believe that that person was now— he didn't want to say it. That person was no less powerful! Right, it must be a dream. Right, it was a dream. There's no way that guy can fight like that!!!

Anyhow, he must defeat and beat him like usual. After he noticed an opening, he leaped in haste and summoned fire on his sword. Because it was a melee attack, the barrack was less at risk of getting burned as long as he'd be careful.

After he leaped, something came flying towards him. "What?" He asked in wide-eyed eyes when blood bloomed and spurted in front of his vision. At the corner of his eyes, he saw a hole in his shoulder.

He lost his strength and fell to the ground. His sneak attack did not happen. He glanced ahead of him and noticed something unbelievable. All was the same, they were groaning in pain on the ground. Only that person was left standing in the middle of the room, once again.

And on his hand, he was gripping the hair of their leader, Jakuzen. Looking at the current Jakuzen, it was hard to say if he was still alive or dead. 

"W-what the… why… how… How has this person become so strong? Is this the same person they used to know? The same person they mock for being the weakest. Is this the same him? However, without getting his answer, his consciousness left him. Then darkness filled his vision.

The next time he woke up, his memory before he lost his consciousness came back to his mind. Right, they fought with that person. Wait, so it was a dream after all! Hahaha! No wonder, it was impossible in the first place. That that person could fight all of them. Forget even fighting all of them. Even the weakest member of their clan could beat him. Hahaha! Eh? He laughed but stopped momentarily upon noticing that something wasn't right.

He couldn't….. move? He glanced around him and saw the others. Like him, they were tied in a sturdy stone pedestal. Beside him, he saw their leader, Jakuzen, still unconscious. Rou was there too and the others. All of them were tied in a circular form. Whereas, there was a space in the middle.

When that person came into his vision he grimaced. Not only him but the others too who are already awake at the moment. They grimaced at the sight of him. He understood that everything that happened a while ago wasn't a dream! It was real!

That person walked in the middle.

"You bastard! Release me!" One of his comrades angrily shouted. But that person only snorted. With a glint in his eyes, he walked beside his comrade. Then he noticed a dagger materialized on his hand. 

Without a second thought, he stabbed the mouth of his comrade.

"Guwargh! Darn—yourgh— release meergh!"

"Aaargh!!!"

His comrade cried in pain as blood was gushing out from his mouth.

"Look at your situation. Do you think you have the right to demand?" That guy said coldly while looking at them one by one. 

The noise caused Jakuzen to wake up. "Who the f##k—!!!" He grumbled immediately after waking up. However, it was also stopped immediately. A dagger pierced his mouth. Jakuzen seemed to remember something, his eyes widened and fear was visible on it. He trembled and pissed on his pants.

It was the first time that he saw such expression on their leader's face. Not only that, he was pissing on himself. Such embarrassment. Looks like even this leader of them knew the word fear. However, blood was continuously dripping from his mouth. 

"I don't want to die, I don't want to die…" Jakuzen repeatedly recited with teary eyes. Every second that had passed, he was lossing more blood.

All of them turned pale as they were watching their leader's situation.

When Jakuzen finally lost the strength to remain awake, that person muttered, "heal!" Then the wound on Jakuzen was healed instantly, and also to the other member who had his tongue cut recently.

He wondered how it happened because he didn't see him lifting his arm, and he didn't cast a spell either.

Just then.

"All you need to do is to remain silent. Now let us play."

He said coldly. But actually, he was just asking some questions to them regarding the empire and XIII great families. Their connections and so on. But whenever he disliked their answer, he would shoot them and healed when they fainted. Such torture. After they were healed, not even a scratch was visible. It was a thorough healing ability. It was a high-tier healing ability!

In that sense, he could hurt and healed them repeatedly. All of them thought the same. If this person was the same person they used to bully.

The next morning, information came out that shook the other clan. The Redwing clan was disbanded.
