Chapter 71 - Velonica 2

Jin walked forward. He lifted up his foot and kicked the door.

Bang!!

He looked inside and saw that there were already dozens of guards that was waiting for him inside.

"Oh! Shall I give you all a greeting." Jin said as flames appear and coated both of his fist. He slightly bent his knees and launched himself at the guards.

"Attack!!" One of the guards shouted but he immediately flew as a fist covered in flames smash at his face. He then flew away and crash in a pillar.

Bang!

Jin turned his head and looked at the rest of the guards. He dashed towards the nearest guard and shot a powerful punch.

Bang!! Bang!! Bang!! Bang!!

Jin throw a barrage of powerful punches at the guards.

The guard couldn't do anything to him. They couldn't even block one of his punches.

Jin then stomped his foot at the floor.

PURGATORY DRAGON'S BLAZING EARTH!!

Pillars of flames burst out of the ground and covered the whole room.

Jin looked at the guards who we're panicking as the flames slowly eat their bodies.

He shook his head and said, "I should've done this at the first try. Well, I want to stretch my body for a bit so it's okay."

He then walked upstairs as he let the guards who were screaming in agony.

...

Jellal went to the basement when Jin was fighting the guards, no, should I say massacring the guards.

Jellal looked around and saw jails at the basement.

"There's a jail here at the royal palace. I guess that they kept the important captive of theirs in these jails." Jellal said while looking around at the basement.

After a few dozen of minutes Jellal still didn't find the other half of phoenix stone.

"Maybe there's a hidden passage here in basement." Jellal muttered as he observed his surroundings. He looked for a key or clues that there was really a secret path here in the basement of royal palace.

Another dozen of minutes have passed and Jellal was sure that there was really no secret room here in the basement.

"I guess that the duke is currently keeping the other half of phoenix stone in person. Especially, we already said that our purpose of coming here is the phoenix stone." Jellal muttered before he turned around and walked upstairs.

...

Jin defeated every guards inside the royal palace easily. They couldn't even  put up a fight with him.

And now... He was standing in front of the scared duke of this county.

"Please! Don't kill me! I will give you the phoenix stone! Please!" The duke begged for himself in front of Jin. He bowed down until he was crouching down on the floor. He didn't even dare to met Jin's eyes. It was too scary for him. All of his guards were defeated by this man in front of him. The rumors didn't exaggerated itself.

"If you have it then quickly take it out." Jin said in a tired voice while looking down at the duke. He looked around the room and sat down in a chair.

"Yes! Yes! I will get it now!" The duke quickly stood up and left the room but before he could leave he once again heard Jin's voice beside his ears.

"Don't you dare to try to escape. I will immediately finish you if I sense that you try to escape."

Jin looked at his back before he shook his head. He didn't that the duke have the guts to escape.

Jin turned his head and looked at the window. He was wondering what really is the system. Where it came from? It's said that he was the 99th host of the system. If that's really the case where's the other 99 host of the system. He don't know where they've gone. Or where might they be. There's also a possibility that they were already dead because the system is bound to the host soul. Unless they die, the system will not leave host soul.

Is it possible to go back to the earth he came from. The one without supernatural things. If that's the case then he want to meet his sister in earth. It's been three years since he came in another world or should I say fictional world. He already miss her and his parents.

He wonder what would they feel when they learn that he died in that earthquake. He was sure that when he grow powerful enough or continue to upgrade his system he would be able to find a way to go back to the earth, his home world.

He then heard the door opened. He looked over and saw that it was the duke.

The duke was trying to catch his breath. After he left this room he quickly went to find the phoenix stone in his possession. He didn't dare to make Jin wait longer.

The duke lifted up his head and said, "Here, I already brought the phoenix stone to you." He stretched out his hand and opened his palm revealing the other half of phoenix stone.

Jin looked at it and said, "Good."
