Chapter 19 The Gods Are Watching You!

CROWD!

As soon as Victor entered his room, he suddenly grabbed the woman by the neck and pulled her to the wall, hitting her hard, creating a huge crack in the wall.

"Who are you? And what was this whole show for?" - Victor roared.

**********

On the way to the Yang Clan, Victor didn't talk much to her because he was in his thoughts, he thought there was something strange about the woman, he felt that the woman behaved too suspiciously.

For example, why did she agree to go with him to the clan in the first place? Wouldn't it make more sense for her to run right away, since any normal woman would have seen Victor as a demon after his show of breaking those men's bones and decapitating one of them with a smile on his face.

But she seemed very strange to him, the second reason was that the woman did not have a single bruise or contusion, so Victor could not help but wonder:

'When she was struggling to run away from those thugs in the alley, one of them hit her hard on the arm and yet there is no visible bruise or any signs of damage on her skin'

He didn't think that his eyes were deceiving him, but instead found more and more sound reasons for her strange behavior; it seemed to him that she was hiding her true identity from him.

Thinking that he was winding himself up, Victor decided to ask the system what level of cultivation the woman had and if she was really stronger or on the same level as those men...

'If that's truly the case then what am I supposed to do with her?' Victor wondered.

Ding!

[The woman is in the initial stage of Earthly Ascension(2)]

Narrowing his eyes, Victor began to realize that he was not playing the role of the hero who saved the damsel, but the role of the prey that was caught in a trap of a spider.

It was even worse than he had imagined, now Victor was only in the late stage of the Initial Ascension(1), while she had already entered the Earthly Ascension(2).

'If she wanted to, she could have easily killed those men.' The men were like cockroaches to someone at her level of cultivation and she could have coped easily without Victor's help, crushing those worms with one finger.

'Well, my luck is the same as always,' Victor grinned grimly. After all, the word luck didn't exist for him, and he got nothing but trouble out of every case.

*********

"What are you talking about?" - The woman trembled trying to play the role of an innocent girl, of course most people would have believed it when they saw her face, but Victor was different, he had a system, thanks to which he knew the real level of cultivation of women.

Sigh!

Victor sighed, taking his hands off her neck, for he knew that even if he tried to hurt her she would be quicker and might even maim him, which would be terrible. He didn't want to become her enemy because of his impulsiveness so he took his hands off her neck, sat down on the bed and decided to find out what she wanted from him.

"Stop lying, I'm tired of it! I know that your level of cultivation is at the initial stage of Earthly Ascension(2), if you wanted to you could easily kill those bastards!"

"Huh?" - The girl cried out stupefied, while her pale face suddenly changed to one of incredulity.

"Your whole performance was excellent, I even believed it at first, but alas… So what was the whole show for? You came to kill me?" - Victor cautiously asked the girl while maintaining the distance between them, he would not have been at all surprised if the woman was a hired assassin or someone else who wanted to get Victor's head, as he took it for granted.

"Kill?! Hahahahaha!" - The woman laughed.

"So this is your true face" Victor noticed how her whole atmosphere was completely changed if before she looked like a timid, innocent and fearful woman, now it was quite the opposite she seemed like a very confident and strong woman.

"Victor, I don't want to kill you and even if I wanted to I couldn't. The gods want you to live forever!" - The woman said with a sneer.

'The gods want me to live forever?' One phrase from the woman threw Victor's relatively calm state out of control; to him it was like the cruelest curse of all that existed.

"What are you talking about?" - Victor tried to pull himself together, but the woman noticed that Victor's eyes had darkened and his hands were trembling slightly, you could tell he was slightly frightened.

"A loser dreaming of success; a man who lost his fortune because of a girl; an ogre who cut off his head; a slug who sought out his own death and in the current…"

The woman had no time to speak before a blade appeared in front of her neck, trying to separate her head from her body.

BOOOOM!

By easily dodging, she was able to avoid a blow that could have been fatal to her had she not been on her guard the whole time. The blow of the sword, which contained all of Victor's power instead of the woman's head, smashed into the wall, making a huge cut that was more than 20 meters in diameter.

"Hoo-hoo! What a nervous wreck!" - The woman grinned as if not paying attention to Victor's appearance, which was now terrifying.

"WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU?!" - Victor roared, his eyes completely red while his face was solemn.

The woman said only a few words, but with those words she completely agitated him and brought him out of his normal state. She was able to remind him of the worst moments of his life that he tried to forget, even though it did not work at all.

"Calm down, I'm not going to hurt you!" - The woman began to realize that she seemed to have pressed the wrong button with this man's words. In her mind she couldn't help but wonder:

'Why is he so angry?'

"My name is Mikena and I am a demigod. I only found you for one reason and that is to survive in this world of cultivation, at first I did not want to reveal my status and just tried to befriend you and help you from the shadows, but I did not expect you to reveal me and much less know my true level of cultivation." - Said Mikena while trying to be as friendly as possible.
