Chapter 363: So greedy and domineering
Right after he said that, he released his Reiatsu.
From the start he had already lubricated his body and the area around him with it.
That was why the chair and the floor beneath him were fine.
But now, he increased his Reiatsu output.
**BOOM!**
Red-colored spiritual power exploded from his body and pushed out the combined spiritual power of all the gods in the room.
Except for the girls, everyone in the room was stunned and looked at Eiji in horror.
The room that was originally illuminated by the golden light of the gods was now colored by a terrifying red color.
Even the elders who had not long ago been very arrogant, their wrinkled faces seemed to have paled.
The ceremonial room shook as if hit by an earthquake.
Not only that.
If they went out and looked at the sky above the Village. They would see the originally clear sky become overcast and dark as if a storm was about to arrive.
All the glass display cases that stored the Four Gods shattered.
The gods trembled as if they were frightened.
**CRACK!**
The cracking sound made the hearts of the elders and Shuuya skip a beat.
"N-No way! The Village Barrier... Pffft!" Fuji wanted to stand up and stop Eiji, but he and the other two elders were unable to move under the pressure of Eiji's spiritual power.
They were even vomiting blood!
In the end, the sound of something breaking rang in everyone's ears.
It was the Village's dimensional barrier that was now breaking as it was unable to withstand the release of Eiji's Reiatsu.
Only after that, Eiji stopped releasing his Reiatsu. The light in the ceremony room returned to normal, but none of the people in the room spoke before he did first.
"Did you see it clearly? From the beginning your intention to suppress our power with the Village barrier was futile. In front of me, the dimensional barrier made by the gods is as fragile as glass."
"This is not right, how can such power..." Atsusa whose voice was trembling said.
Just like the other two elders, he didn't expect Eiji to have enough power to destroy the Dimensional barrier made by the gods.
Jin Toujou who was also SS-class would not be able to destroy the Village Dimensional barrier. But Eiji?
... He's a monster!
Their previous judgment was wrong, he was higher than the SS class!
Of all the elders, Kumano fainted.
Meanwhile. Unlike the elders, the others were fine and not injured at all.
They felt how strong Eiji's spiritual power was, but that was it. He deliberately left them aside and only targeted the elders.
[Sapphire 10+]
The protagonist's mother seemed to be amazed by his show of power, this was good.
Eiji looked at Atsusa with a disdainful look before saying, "This is why you're mongrels, you don't know much about me and thought you could kill me with the help of a barrier. Now that you've failed..."
"What should I do with you guys? Oh right. You also threatened to kill my women and my friend Basara earlier. Therefore, it only makes sense that I kill you all."
The words made the elders panic. They lost their confidence which made the girls look at them with amusement.
The situation was reversed!
"Eiji Seiya, you can't do it! You-, aren't you afraid of making the entire Hero Clan your enemy? Not only you, those girls and Basara will also be involved in this matter."
Fuji whose body trembled from sensing Eiji's spiritual power earlier boldly stood up from his chair and looked at the boy seriously.
"T-That's right. Eiji Seiya, you better not kill us. Yuki, Kurumi, what are you doing?! You are heroes, you must stop that boy because he dared to hurt us elders!" Atsusa said, originally he was pleading, but he suddenly had the idea to order Yuki and Kurumi.
Eiji grinned, he glanced at the two girls in question.
"Yuki, Kurumi. You heard what the elders in your village said? They want you to stop me."
"Huh? That..." Kurumi pretended to hesitate which made the elders see hope, but then she gave the elders a mocking smile which made them have a bad feeling.
She stood up from her chair and stood to Eiji's left, she placed one of her hands on the boy's shoulder before saying sweetly.
"Sorry elders, but I will support whatever Eiji wants. He's my boyfriend after all, for his sake, I'm fine being an enemy of the Hero Clan."
After all, Jin's and her identities were opposites and Basara would be in trouble if his mother's second information was revealed.
That was before of course. Now with the letter in her cleavage, initially this problem would be resolved once the elders approved the contents of the letter and she could tell Basara that she was his mother.
But before she did, Eiji seemed to be doing something that could help her with a different method.
Without Sapphire realizing it, her fondness for the boy increased to a level that would make Jin worried if he found out. A lot of heart-shaped pink light came out of her body and entered the Solomon Ring on Eiji's finger.
Basara did not realize his mother was a few steps closer to giving his father a green hat. Instead of suspecting something was wrong, he was amazed by what Eiji was doing.
"Shuuya, don't listen to what that boy says!"
"Shuuya, you're here to protect us. You're the only person in this village who can do that now. We've treated you well all this time. Even without Eiji Seiya's help, you'll be the next elder!"
"Shuuya, think carefully. Even if your two daughters are standing by the boy's side. Don't forget you're a hero! People like them are a threat to the Hero Clan."
Atsusa, Kumano and Fuji screamed and almost begged Shuuya because after the plan to utilize the power of the dimensional barrier failed. He was the only one they could rely on to protect their safety.
There were in fact quite a few members of the Hero Clan living in the Village. However, in order to deal with Eiji and the others. The elders had told them to move ordinary residents like their wives and children to a safer place outside the Village.
That explained why Eiji and the others saw no one but their group walking in the Village.
The elders did this just in case something bad happened. However, they still underestimated Eiji's power back then and deeply regretted why they didn't gather more guards to protect them.
Although it—
"Elders... Sorry." Shuuya apologized with a complicated look. Kurumi and Eiji's offer made him tempted.
The key was that he didn't want to go against his own two daughters, let alone throw them into the Village prison which was far worse than a normal prison.
With the exception of Shiba Kyouichi who did not go mad after being imprisoned there to prevent him from using his powers before he died at Eiji's hands, the people thrown there would not only lose the ability to release their powers— many of them would most likely go mad because there were many vengeful and evil spirits residing there.
The elders wanted him to throw his two daughters there?
Honestly hearing the elders order him to do that, he was angry at those old men.
The elders' faces grew ugly, especially when they saw Shuuya's cold stare.
"Shuuya, don't tell us... you too..."
"Yes." Shuuya said and he glanced at his future son-in-law... at this point he was his son-in-law. He had no other choice but to accept it, right? "Eiji, I'm willing to accept your offer."
"Shuuya! You bastard!"
The elders started cursing the man. It was honestly a very funny scene, Mio and Maria couldn't help but laugh.
"You made a good choice, father-in-law."
Eiji raised one finger which created golden flames at the tip. It was a Qilin flame that made even the Four Chinese Gods—"Genbu", "Suzaku", "Seiryuu" and "Byakko" in the room so anxious that they glowed.
The four gods came out of their respective containers and lined up in front of the elders with their respective sacred beast spirit forms which made the old men moved and looked at Eiji arrogantly.
Although the Four Gods showed their forms, they were clearly only spirits and were not in their full power which made them only four meters tall.
But that was it. Eiji looked at the elders who were arrogant only because they were protected by small gods who had lost most of their power with a disdainful gaze.
Even if those gods were in their full power, it wouldn't be a problem.
In front of his Qilin flames that made the temperature in the room reach a terrifying extreme, more terrifying than Mio's Crimson Flame. Except for the elders, he would have already covered them with his magic barrier — they would be safe and could watch in peace.
"So you mongrels want to die together? Of course, I will grant your wish."
Saying that, he flicked the flames on his fingertips towards the elders and the four gods seeking death.
And the result was as expected. None of them could withstand the flames that could burn any material, not even the concept of time itself.
The elders were unable to even scream, their bodies and souls burned to nothing. The four gods were no exception, unfortunately they lost the chance to become his pets.
Shuuya, Sapphire, Basara and the others looked at the scene that looked like purgatory in front of them in horror.
Leaving aside the elders, the gods were dead in an instant.
Right at the moment when the Qilin flame was extinguished by Eiji's order...
"Wh-What's going on here?"
A girl's confused voice sounded from the direction of the door.
