Before leaving the fortress, Aion asked for a map with the location of the enemy's bases in the desert. Since it was one thousand kilometers wide, the criminals managed to build ten camps after taking over the capital, and they had around one hundred men in each of them.
"I am curious as to how they managed to transport the materials necessary to build those, but that isn't important now," Aion thought while flying toward the first target.

As soon as he found it, Aion made the class absorb the materials that he had processed earlier, and he also used all the coins he had to increase his magic since his level in that class was just too pitiful.
"At least that will help me level up faster…" Aion thought while he began to fall near.
It didn't take long for Aion to be found by some guards. The enemy's camp was like a small fortress, but it served more than well enough as a base of operations in the middle of the desert. In any case, since his level was low and he didn't have that much mana, Aion just gave him a chance for the enemies to organize. It would be faster to kill them that way. It was hard to imagine that they would know his appearance, after all.
In the end, even before Aion could reach the gate, it was opened, and ten soldiers came to fight him… they sure were being reckless. Armed with spears, they walked toward him like they were forced to do an annoying job. It probably couldn't be helped since Aion wasn't wearing his armor and didn't have any weapons with him.
Still, when the enemies were ten meters away, Aion fired ten ice arrows that made their heads explode. The guards on the walls opened their eyes widely when they saw the guards falling headless on the ground, and they couldn't tell what had happened.

"I am going to recover all the money I used once the class reaches the requirements to level up, but I guess I will become filthy rich once I am done with this country," Aion said and then attacked the guards in the walls.
Some of the enemy soldiers began to scream and shout to alert their allies, telling them to bring their weapons. They sure were naive for thinking that weapons would be enough to let them fight Aion. They should have at least done some research on Aion's appearance, or maybe they did and didn't believe in his accomplishments.
It didn't take long for the enemies to leave the interior of the fortress to fight him, but Aion just put some ice arrows in their heads without even looking at them.
"This is a first-tier class at a low level… and you can't even touch me," Aion said while kicking the corpses. "You are this weak, and you think that you would be able to attack my family and live to tell the tale? Something must be wrong with you guys' heads."
In no time, Aion killed half of the garrison of the place, and the other half decided to escape while calling him a monster. Such naivety… they were the ones who awakened the monster.
"It is a pity that I can't use the Necromancer class here. It would make my job faster," Aion said when he began to fly and created a massive ice saw that was rotating above him.
Aion made the ice saw fly toward the enemies, and when they heard the sound of something rotating at high speeds, it was too late… Aion split them in half.

Aion thought of flying toward the next target but then realized that the earthworms weren't showing up to eat the bodies, and yet, Aion couldn't feel anything weird with the mana there.
"I need to investigate this later…" Aion muttered while scratching his chin.
Aion began to fly toward the nearest base. It had been a while since he was forced to do that by himself, but he had to meditate as well to recover mana since the magic power of that class wasn't that efficient.
Regardless, before noon, Aion reached and destroyed all the bases that the enemies had in the desert and then began to fly further East… it was time for the real massacre to start.
When Aion reached the first city after crossing the desert, it was already night, and since the place was walled, the gates had already been closed. Not that such a thing mattered. Aion just landed in front of the gate and then sliced it apart with his ice magic.
The sound quickly drew the attention of the guards working nearby, and then they came to check. Aion had to wait patiently since it was a part of his plans… killing everyone would be easy and wouldn't leave any problems for later, but it would bring problems down the road.
He had to be ruthless against the right people, and killing those that couldn't fight and didn't have weapons would only turn his family and, more importantly, his mother into enemies of the whole world. He could easily imagine people calling him the spawn of the devil or something… if Aion hears that just once, he will make the world go on a path of total destruction, and no one would stop him.
"Who are you?!" One heavily armored guard asked, and others soon joined him while pointing their weapons at him.
"I am your worst nightmare," Aion replied.
