Ex True God In Animeverse - Chapter 118 Expensive Mercy
[Later]
Xiao Qiangwei was walking in the park at night, to relax, and think about the future, until he sensed someone spying on him, and threw something sharp at him, it was a sword, Xiao Qiangwei didn’t even moved, and took the sword right at the head.
But for the attacker’s surprise, the sword became ashes from Xiao Qiangwei’s Prana, and the ashes turned in nothingless.
Xiao Qiangwei: *Sigh* Now, who should this fucker here be?
Xiao Qiangwei vanished from the attacker’s vision and appeared right in front of him, the attacker tried to run away, but he was stopped from a crushing presence that froze him in his place.
Xiao Qiangwei: Well, I didn’t expected a beautiful woman doing the job, but… Who am I to judge… Now the question is…
Xiao Qiangwei then creepily smiled.
Xiao Qiangwei: How should I crush that thing called life?
The masked woman’s eyes widened and she started to tremble.
Xiao Qiangwei: Shall I cut you? Shall I freeze you? Shall I cut you? Shall I mentally attack you? No, because there would still be traces of your body… Then why not making you stop exist? But first, tell me why did you decide to attack me
Xiao Qiangwei destroyed the mask of the attacker, revealing a blonde haired woman, who was sweating from fear.
Woman: I…. I will not tell you!
Xiao Qiangwei: You misunderstood me, I am not asking…
Then Xiao Qiangwei used his mana to manipulate her very soul, this was a trick he used in his last life before this, and was able to master it here.
It would work only when the difference between great realms would be over 7, or he would enter the Divine Soul Realm, but he still needed to be at least 4 realms stronger than the target, then the woman started to talk, unable to stop.
Woman: I was ordered to test you from Edward Lampard, the man sent from the English main branch, and see if you were worthy of being S Class.
The woman’s eyes widened because she couldn’t control herself, and said exactly what Xiao Qiangwei wanted, who raised an eyebrow.
Xiao Qiangwei: Well, this is unexpected… Since you targeted me and it was only a test, I’ll let you alive… But…
When the woman heard the first sentence, she sighed in relief, but when she heard the last word, her heart started beating really fast.
Xiao Qiangwei: You will need to give me something… Maybe an arm…
Xiao Qiangwei’s arm got close to the woman’s left arm, until a voice stopped them.
?: STOP RIGHT NOW!!
Xiao Qiangwei: Finally you got out…
The woman’s eyes widened from shock, hearing a familiar voice.
Woman: S…Sir Edward!!
Xiao Qiangwei: So you are this Edward… Now tell me, why should I stop?
Edward: I will fight you if you do something to her!
Xiao Qiangwei: So… Do you think you are worthy of touch me? Because your power is worthless in front of me, like everyone else’s power.
Edward had a worried look on his face, then he summoned his armor and rushed between Xiao Qiangwei and the woman and then kneeled, surprising both the woman and Xiao Qiangwei.
Edward: Please… Don’t hurt her… You can take my arm instead.
Woman: Sir Edward!! No!!
Xiao Qiangwei lowered his arm, and sighed before scratching his head.
Xiao Qiangwei: *Sigh* ‘Unlike the other people that attacked me and my loved ones… They didn’t nothing serious yet, so I will not exagerate…’ I will let you off…
Both Edward and the woman sighed in relief, but Edward face turned from relief to pain, and spit blood, meanwhile he flew towards an abandoned building, and crashed in.
Xiao Qiangwei: I’ll give you only some broken ribs.
Woman: Sir Edward! You bastard… You said you would let us go!
Xiao Qiangwei: I said that, and I’m not killing anyone, which was a good thing for you, I didn’t cut off either of your arms, and you expect me to not leave without giving some injuries? Stop hoping for shit like this and go pick your white knight, I’ll leave…
Then Xiao Qiangwei walked away and retracted back his prana and mana, letting the woman move again, who rushed to Edward, and taking him in a nearby hospital.
Xiao Qiangwei: ‘Better going home…’
Then Xiao Qiangwei walked towards his home, trying to forget all this shit.
[Meanwhile]
Edward was trying to recover from the sudden hit, he couldn’t even move because that hit easily broke through his armor and shattered some pair of ribs, while making him fly at least one kilometer at sonic speed against an abandoned building, which was strong enough to not fall apart.
Around him there were pieces of the wall that he was slammed onto, and some blood coming from his mouth.
Woman: Sir Edward!!
Then he heard his maid’s screams which were getting more nearby, until he could see her.
Woman: Sir Edward! Are you ok?!
Edward: ..Yeah… Just some broken ribs… ‘Jeez, that guy is the real monster… And it seemed he just patted my chest… He didn’t even used neither prana or mana… Just pure Physical prowess…’
Woman: I’ll take you to the hospital right away!
The woman tried to take on her shoulder Edward, but she hurted him even more.
Edward: Ouch ouch ouch… Be careful there…
Woman: Hmph… It’s your fault to try to put your arm for my life…
Then the woman slowly took him to the hospital, to get cured.
