1013 Chapter 1013: No More Warnings
"I will not hurt you — that is the price I am willing to return in exchange."
"Huh...?"
The man seemed to find it incredibly using as he looked at Riley from head to toe; a small smirk, slowly crawling on his face while his breaths soon turned into a chuckle. As for the woman, she just looked Riley in the eyes while still completely blocking his path.
"I truly don't think you understand the situation you are in right now," the woman shook her head, "And since you don't, you truly are an outsider, and I can only assume that you're from down there, where the mortals live. You must be really brave to go here when it is strictly prohibited for your kind to even be in close proximity to this place."
"That, or he is stupid — I do not even sense a hint of energy from this man... and he's threatening us? Were the mortals in the Domain of the Gods also this funny?"
"Don't be stupid, Ram," the woman clicked her tongue at Ram's words, "No mere mortal could reach this place, much less the inner areas of this planet — this man is clearly hiding his strength so he could hunt here, he is strong."
"A mortal is still a mortal, Emis," Ram once again smirked before walking behind Riley, completely covering his path to escape, "No matter how strong they could become, they will never surpass us."
"Don't you know that our parents were also once mortals?"
"Psh, impossible."
"Oh...?" Riley blinked a couple of times as he glanced at Ram before focusing his attention to Emis, "So, the two of you are not originally from the Domain of the Gods? That's... interesting. When I was there, the gods were not able to procreate – does that mean that you two were just born 16 yea—"
"Stop yapping and just disappear!"
"Ram, no!"
Ram did not let Riley finish his words as he just suddenly rushed toward him; his hand threatening to grab Riley by the neck. His sister tried to stop him, but the only thing she could really do was watch as Riley just casually grabbed his wrist before sweeping him by the ankles and tripping Ram straight to the ground.
"You—"
And before Ram could even say anything, Riley grabbed one of his knives and stabbed him through the back of his hand, pinning his arm into the impenetrable ground of New Theran. And almost as if to deter any more future ramblings...
...Riley continued to stab his knives through Ram's limbs without giving him any chance to explain; only letting his grunts and quiet whimpers to escape his gritted lips. And once he was done, he retrieved a needle and thread from one of his many trusty pockets and started sewing Ram's lips shut.
And through all of this, through the noise and muffled screams, Emis only watched.
"What do you—"
"Who dares intrude in my, Ramis, land!?"
And before the siblings could even share their dismay with each other, their father arrived — and much like them, he had green hair; only wearing a garb and a sash as he had several blood markings painting his muscular body.
His spear which was 4 meters long, now seemed small as he was almost taller than it.
"...And you also dare hurt one of my children!?" The father, Ramis, raised his voice as soon as he saw the state of Ram; whose multiple wounds were still healing as he sat defeated on the ground, "Is it you!?"
And while the tip of Ramis's spear was only inches away from Riley's nose as he pointed it at him, Riley just let out a small breath as he glanced at Emis.
"I already told you I was not in the mood," Riley closed his eyes, "And since I am a father now, I understand how it is to want to please one's children, and how it feels to fail them — so I apologize for doing this to you...
...and how I am thoroughly going to enjoy it."
And with those words, Riley opened his eyes — and not even a millisecond after doing so, broke the spear in half with his hands; spinning his way toward Ramis and then stabbing him straight in the eye with the pointy end.
Riley then pulled out the spear, taking out Ramis's eyeball and then using it to plug his throat before he could roar or say anything. And while doing this, Emis and Ram watched as a small smile very started to crawl on Riley's face.
"Pavoom," Riley then pointed his finger at Ramis's legs, completely erasing his limbs before pinning his head through the ground. And as soon as Ramis's hand let go of the other half of the spear, Riley grabbed it from him before instantly flying toward Ram.
"!!!" Ram tried taking a step back, but it was too late as Riley had already swung the spear through his neck; his scenery, turning around as his head slowly dropped; not to the ground, as Riley caught it with the spear before batting it directly toward Emis's hand.
"Lord, please stop—!!!" And before Emis could even plead, Riley threw the spear toward her; or more specifically, toward her brother's head and then through her stomach.
"No," Riley shook his head before he started walking back to Ramis, who already fully recovered and standing,
"I already warned you several times...
...what happens now is entirely not my fault."
