Breaking The Fourth Walls (A Douluo Dalu Fanfic) - Chapter 61

General pov…

As Oscar said those words to the Titled Douluo, Yun who had been bowing down with respect towards his master stood up and said, “INSOLENCE! Don’t you know who this is?”

Oscar looking relaxed as he kept a strong grip on Chen’s neck casually replied, “Yeah a Titled Douluo.”

Yun who saw his action felt pissed as he felt like stabbing Oscar’s mask and slicing out his tongue, however, the Titled Douluo merely laughed and said, “My… my… You aren’t afraid, either you are truly brave or completely delusional to the point where you cannot understand your current situation., I commend you.”

Oscar was silent at first while facing the Titled Douluo, but slowly replied saying, “Well, we both know that there is no point in panicking at this moment, as that won’t help.”

The Titled Douluo nodded and seemed to accept Oscar’s reply, however, Yun was shocked as even he could never talk to his own master so casually and with such a carefree tone as well.

Oscar then said, “Well now, shall we stop this charade of ours and try to outwit each other with action instead.”

Oscar casually turned around and dragged the unconscious Chen by the neck across the ground, Yun was even more pissed as he felt that Oscar was intentionally insulting his master.

“YOU BASTARD! Are you truly that arrogant.” Yun said while clenching both his fists and looking at Oscar with a stare that could kill him if possible.

Oscar kept walking and replied with a casual tone saying, “Oh! The little pussƴ learned how to talk as soon as Mama showed up.”

Yun was angered by Oscar’s words to the point, where veins began to appear on his forehead and seemed that they would pop at any moment.

However, Yun did not move as he knew that he was nowhere near Oscar’s capabilities, but what truly frustrated him was that Oscar was an auxiliary support type, the ones whom he looked down upon as they had no combat capabilities.

Oscar knew his words stung Yun’s pride as he smiled behind his mask, however, as he kept walking the Titled Douluo who was silent said something that caught his attention.

“You’re stalling aren’t you?”

Realizing that his plan had been discovered, Oscar stopped walking and slowly turned towards the Titled Douluo and asked, “So you knew?”

The Titled Douluo smiled and replied saying, “Of course, after all my spirit has a sensory ability that can detect all life forms within a ten-mile radius.”

Oscar was silent, but the Titled Douluo seemed to have so much to say as he continued talking, “That’s why you purposely fought my students, to distract me from the ones who were escaping, wasn’t it?”

Oscar remained silent as he kept holding the black-haired ȧssassin Chen by the neck, but the Titled Douluo did not care as he then said, “That was also why you let them injure you in the first place since you knew I was watching, however, after your ally who was injured was unable to fight back and would not last any longer, you had no other choice but to step in. This was also why you called me out as you now plan to continue to distract me and let the others who escaped to live, while you and your ally stayed behind to sacrifice yourselves to give them more time.”

Tang san who was injured stayed where he was but was still shocked by the Titled Douluo’s discovery about Oscar.

However, the Titled Douluo did not stop there as he said, “But, what truly intrigues me is how you were able to disappear and suddenly reappear next to my students, please do tell.”

As the Titled Douluo awaited for Oscar’s reply, Yun who heard this was shocked by what his master had said, because if this was true then Oscar was just playing with them and was only threatened by the existence of their master.

Yun then turned to look at Oscar and what he would do next, but what he never expected was for Oscar to lift Chen and throw him aside.

Yun was surprised and thought that Oscar had given up and no longer wanted to fight back since his plan was revealed, however, he then said, “You got me.”

The Titled Douluo looked disappointed as he asked, “That’s it, you’re just going to give up?”

Oscar looked like doing so as he then replied saying, “Well I don’t have anything else to do, after all, you said it yourself, I was not aware of my current situation.”

Oscar then placed his hands behind his back and seemed to be waiting while looking towards the Titled Douluo.

The Titled Douluo shook his head and said, “Well, there is no use in struggling as I would have killed you if you had.”

Oscar then casually asked, “Hey, can I ask you one question?”

Yun was pissed by Oscar’s casual tone as he said, “You bastard-”

However, before Yun could finish his sentence the Titled Douluo cut him off as he replied saying, “You may.”

Oscar nodded and asked with an enthusiastic tone, “How many Douluo’s does it take to catch one Main character?”

Both Yun and the Titled Douluo were confused by Oscar’s question, however, Yun thought that Oscar was insulting his master and frustratingly asked, “What are you even talking about you-”

Oscar then made an X mark with his hands and said, “EERR… Wrong that is not the answer.”

Yun was surprised by Oscar’s reaction, however, the Titled Douluo became suspicious and watched Oscar’s every move.

Oscar then lifted both hands revealing two bags containing Tnt which he threw one towards Chen while throwing the other towards Yun and the Titled Douluo and saying, “None, because the MC is not a simp.”

Oscar at that moment used his space ability to appear next to Tang san, meanwhile, the Titled Douluo was distracted in blowing the two bags into the air before they exploded.

Seeing this, Oscar quickly carried Tang san in his arms and activated his space ability once again while waving towards Yun and the Titled Douluo.

Both Yun and the Titled Douluo were shocked by how Oscar was able to appear next to Tang san, but the Titled Douluo did not have time to think about that as he immediately tried to get to him using his top speed.

However, as he was only an inch away from grabbing Oscar’s shirt, the two vanished into thin air leaving a shocked Titled Douluo who was now using his spirit’s ability to find them.

But was shocked the next second as he felt the same spirit essence of both Tang san and Oscar coming five miles away from where he was and seemed to be mixed in with hundreds of other people.

Knowing that they had managed to somehow teleport five miles away from him, the Titled Douluo flew into the air and pursued Oscar and the others.

Meanwhile 5 minutes earlier…

Ma Hongjun who had been leading the other prisoners towards the location of the runes where Oscar said he would be, was now desperate in making sure that none of the prisoners whom he and the others had just rescued were left behind.

In making sure that this did not happen he would constantly go to the back of the group and ȧssist everyone who was getting tired by either carrying them or telling them to keep going.

Ma Hongjun was relieved to see the runes and signaled for everyone else to go into the middle and make sure that they weren’t standing outside the runes.

He then looked around and seemed to be looking for Oscar, however, a few of the prisoners who were gasping while standing behind Ma hongjun asked him, “Why did we stop?”

Ma Hongjun did not want to answer them as he took off his mask revealing the attractive features that made him look more mȧturė.

Most of the female prisoners including Ao ren’s sister blushed at the sight of Ma Hongjun, but Ma Hongjun could care less as he continued focusing by looking towards the direction that they had just come from.

One of the male prisoners who saw this was annoyed and walked up to Ma Hongjun and said, “Hey pretty boy we’re talking to you.” while grabbing Ma Hongjun’s shoulder.

However, as the prisoner looked at Ma Hongjun’s expression the prisoner regretted his decision as Ma Hongjun looked at him with a stare that could kill.

Ma Hongjun then only said a few words that shut the male prisoner and the others who were annoyed by him up.

“Shut the fuċk up!”

The male prisoner who had walked up to Ma Hongjun fell onto the ground and tried to move away from Ma Hongjun with fear in his eyes.

But Ma Hongjun did not care as he looked back without giving the prisoners another thought, Ao ren who saw this walked up to Ma Hongjun and asked, “Umm… senior.”

Ma Hongjun did not answer at first which gave Ao ren the impression that he did not want to talk, but Ma Hongjun quietly replied, “What?”

Realizing that Ma Hongjun replied to him Ao ren quickly asked in a curious tone, “Why are we waiting in these runes if you don’t mind me asking?”

Ma Hongjun was silent at first, but then sighed and said, “Because the person whom we are waiting for is not here yet.”

Ao ren wanted to ask another question, however, before he could another one of the middle-aged male prisoners who were annoyed by him scoffed at his answer and said, “Are you insane, those allies of yours are probably dead by now and you still want to wait for them. If we stay here any longer then the spirit hall followers might catch up to us, and we might as well have died within the fortress because they won’t let us off that easily.”

Ao ren who heard what one of the prisoners said was shocked and looked back to see Ma Hongjun with anger in his eyes and while walking up to the prisoner who had just spoken.

The prisoner gulped in fear and said, “Wha… What… You going to kill me now, that makes you no different from those spirit hall bastards.”

Ma Hongjun did not answer the prisoner but continued walking up to him until he was only a few inches away.

Comparing Ma Hongjuns height and the male prisoners it was clear that Ma Hongjun was shorter than him.

However, none of the prisoners could deny that Ma Hongjun was far stronger than the middle-aged prisoner.

But what happened next was something that they did not expect as Ma Hongjun said, “Try to understand and just wait, they will be here and we will all make it out of this hell-hole.”

Ma hongjun then turned and walked back to his previous position, however, instead of taking Ma Hongjun’s advice the male prisoner took Ma Hongjun’s action as being scared and became even more arrogant as he smiled and said, “Screw that, we need to get out of here if we want to live.”

Ma Hongjun did not respond to the middle-aged prisoner as he looked back and seemed to wait for Tang san and Oscar.

However, the middle-aged prisoner kept talking as he said, “You are the one who needs to understand that waiting around near these runes won’t save us from Spirit hall, it’s true that your allies may have gotten rid of one of the Titled Douluo’s but there is no possible way for them to get rid of another Titled Douluo if we wait any longer.”

Most of the prisoners who were annoyed by Ma Hongjun’s attitude started nodding their heads and agreeing with the middle-aged prisoner.

Ma Hongjun was slowly becoming angered by the middle-aged man and was about to use force to silence him.

But before he could Ao ren who had been silent suddenly spoke up and said, “How can you say that? Those two allies of his were the ones who rescued us from Spirit hall and you want to abandon them. One of the two is the son of our master and you want to abandon him as well, are you truly that ungrateful?”

The middle-aged man was shocked by Ao ren’s intervention and said, “Shut it Xiao ren, so what if he is the son of that disabled master of ours, you need to understand that our previous clan no longer exists, therefore they mean nothing to us after we suffered years under the torture of Spirit hall.”

Hearing the middle-aged man’s words, the other prisoners agreed as a few of them even voiced their opinion by agreeing with what the middle-aged man had just said.

Ao ren was shocked by the middle-aged man’s response and the other prisoner’s opinion as he then said, “Fine! If you truly mean what you say, then why don’t you and everyone else who thinks so just leave.”

The middle-aged prisoner was shocked but shook his head and smiled while saying, “Sure why not? Everyone who wants to live and not wait around for death comes to my side.”

The group of prisoners who had witnessed the argument between Ao ren and the middle-aged prisoner realized that they needed to make a choice, and slowly one by one each of the prisoners who agreed with the middle-aged prisoner walked towards him, while the others stayed.

Ao ren was shocked as he saw the majority of more than 120 of their people walking away and joining the middle-aged prisoner’s side, while only 60 remained, this included all of the children and a few male and female prisoners, as well as his sister.

Ma Hongjun who saw this was torn inside as he wanted to stop this futile argument and explain to the prisoners why they needed to wait.

However, before he could the middle-aged prisoner then said, “We are the ones who will live while the rest of you will surely die if you wait here any longer for those two dead men within these runes.”

Ma Hongjun’s flame exploded around him as he then said, “You know how to piss me off.”

Ma Hongjun then walked slowly towards the middle-aged prisoner with his spirit rings floating behind him, the middle-aged prisoner, and the others who saw this were shocked and backed away in fear.

However, as Ma Hongjun was about to attack a hand came up from behind and held his shoulder.

Ma Hongjun was surprised and turned around, only to see none other than Oscar and Tang san looking at him with a smile on their faces.

Oscar then said, “Don’t worry I’ve got it from here.”

Hearing Oscar says those words, Ma Hongjun felt reassured, and allowed his flames to slowly die down as he nodded his head and said, “Sure, Oscar.”

Oscar nodded in return and looked towards the middle-aged prisoner who was now even more shocked to see Oscar standing in front of him alive.

Knowing that he was wrong the middle-aged prisoner knew that he was past the point of return as he stood his ground and said, “So you are alive-”

However, before he could finish his sentence Oscar took that moment to deliver a punch that sent him flying towards the other prisoners.

Oscar then said, “So you wish to leave, good I won’t stop you, however, I will only give the others to decide now whether to live or die, due to your foolishness.”

Oscar then turned to the other prisoners and said, “For those who wish to leave you may do so, as I hope for you to find peace from all your suffering caused by Spirit hall, but if you wish to live you may do so as well, by coming inside the runes within five seconds.”

The other prisoners who had sided with the middle-aged prisoners were reluctant but Oscar did not care as he then slowly began counting down, “5… 4…”

The middle-aged prisoner quickly shouted in anger as he said, “Don’t believe him how can they possibly leave by staying inside those runes, we can make it out of this if we leave now.”

The middle-aged prisoner then turned and seemed to be leaving and was signaling for the other prisoners to follow.

However, as he had turned around to leave, 20 to 30 other prisoners had decided to side with Oscar by moving back into the middle of the runes.

Oscar then finished counting down while shaking his head, “3… 2… 1”, he slowly crouched onto the earth and touched the runes which suddenly lit up and cast a shield of light over them.

The prisoners who had decided to leave with the middle-aged prisoner turned and saw what was happening in shock.

Realizing that Oscar had a way to escape the forest all of the prisoners including the middle-aged prisoner, immediately attempted to run back into the runes but were unable to as the shield prevented them from entering.

They shamelessly pleaded for Oscar to let them in as they said that they were wrong, however, as they looked at Oscar’s cold expression they knew that Oscar was not going to do so.

The prisoners then turned to Ao ren and the others and pleaded for their help, but were unable to as they saw slowly turning his back towards them.

Seeing their attempts and plea Oscar shook his head and said, “You had your chance.”

The middle-aged prisoner then punched onto the shield and said, “We are your people, help us we know that I was wrong but I was only doing this because we wanted to escape from Spirit hall so please…”

Oscar did not care as he turned and placed his hand onto the runes and softly whispered words into them while ignoring the prisoners outside the shield who cursed at him for abandoning them and leaving them to die.

Many of the others inside the shield were torn by what they saw as Oscar kept whispering into the runes, until the lights of the runes lit up and reached their peak as Oscar slowly stood and turned towards Ma Hongjun and the others and said, “Everyone Hang on.”

Ma Hongjun then saw the shield of light continuing to light up until it was blinding that he had to cover his face from the brightness and close his eyes.

However, as he did he heard a powerful voice coming from behind them shouting, “HOLD IT RIGHT THERE!”

But instead of opening his eyes, Ma Hongjun heard Oscar say, “See you later.”
