[Quest: Create/Justify A Dictator!
Description Provide a future dictator justifications for his evil doings. In the future, he will not regret his actions like he would do if he didn’t get justifications for his actions from a young age!]
Tenshi smiled as he saw the screens floating above his head.
In Tenshi’s lap, a snuff bottle just like before fell as he quickly took it and put it in his pocket. Sora however, wasn’t paying attention as he was right now looking at the sky with a vacant expression.
Tenshi grinned and looked at Sora, a future dictator. The boy right now looked innocent and kind, no one would guess what he would grow up to be when he gets older.
Wasn’t Hitler just like this? Innocent and kind in his childhood as far as Tenshi knew?
Murdering thousands and illegally ruling over a country with an iron fist, a dictator.
Tenshi already knew this kid was going to be an evil man, it was just that he needed a reason or justification to act evil and he provided that reason. He however, didn’t know before that it was related to the quest and thought that it’s main objective was something like getting the kid over his love. Which was one of the reasons why he used the ‘go after your dream no matter what you have to do’ tactic.
“Thank you niichan!”
The boy turned around and smiled at him; his face worry free and as innocent as a boy his age would look. No one knew that behind this smiling face, evil was brewing.
Tenshi smiled, after all, he had just gained another useful chess piece, even though it’s worth would be revealed in the future, it still had it’s worth. After all, he was now the benefactor of this future dictator.
Nonetheless, he wouldn’t make him too evil, otherwise he would gain competition. He needed to give this boy a shot of compassion and respect towards his benefactors so that he would get this kid’s support in the future.
Tenshi didn’t hold even an ounce of trust for the people that shared the same traits as him. Tenshi knew what he was; he was an opportunistic and untrustworthy sociopath. After all, he cared about benefits and consequences, he couldn’t make this kid the same as him otherwise his trust on the boy would lessen as a result.
Tenshi wanted this kid on his side.
Tenshi shook his head. His trust in people having dissappeared the moment he saw the things Haruno said about him.
Nonetheless, it was the truth. In this world, there are very few poople who trust each other: including lovers, friends and brothers. After all, who doesn’t suspect that their lovers are cheating on them and who doesn’t suspect that their brothers or the friends will turn against them the moment they become poor or unpopular?
No matter what everyone says, no one is trustworthy. Everyone has a chance for breaking someone’s even if it’s their parents or children. He has heard many stories like this. Friends are just people who haven’t turned on you yet. Lovers are people who just haven’t broken your trust yet.
Tenshi didn’t become hesitant to trust people, he just realized the reality of the world.
No one is trustworthy or loyal, it just depends on what you’re giving them at that moment. The people he could trust however, were the people he had total control over.
Ugly isn’t it? People reveal their true motives and feelings whenever they are under the total control of someone, after all, they can’t hide something from someone that can kill them with a word can they?
“Listen Sora, this is the past piece of advice I’ll be giving you. ”
“Don’t believe the morals and ethics the world has forced you to follow. The only ethics and morals you have to follow are the ones that have been set by yourself after experiencing and seeing various things.”
“The only thing you always have to do is have respect and willingness to help the ones that have supported you while you were down, other than that, I have no other ethics I want to force down your throat. ”
“If one day you regret doing evil ”
“Remember, saving yourself and stealing other’s fates aren’t cowardice. After all, it isn’t wrong is it? All you did was try to save and better your own life; other people’s lives however, especially strangers, should have no worth in your life, they are either useful or a burden. ”
Tenshi said as he stood up and fixed his clothes; the boy however, still sat on the bench with a vacant look, as if he was devouring the facts and words that Tenshi spat out.
Tenshi sadly looked at the sky. He had now finally realized that he turned evil and manipulative. Before this, he believed that he was doing this all for his mother but
Tenshi was evil from the start wasn’t he?
Tenshi remembered a phrase his mother and sister told him many times to stop him from turning evil and corrupt. They knew, his heart was tainted from the start.
‘If your heart turns cold, you’ll only be able to eat cold food. ‘
Be it a lighthearted or a serious phrase, it messed his mind and made him guilty about the actions he would be taking in the future.
It wasn’t guilt towards the world or towards himself particularly, but it was towards two of the most important persons in his mind, his neechan and his mother.
Tenshi shook his head and promised.
Mom, I’m sorry. I hope you’ll forgive me for what I am about to do for your revenge.
Tenshi swore in his mind. His guilt and hesitation however, disappeared in a single second like how a politician changes sides.
“Remember, be evil but don’t turn so evil that even your family members hate you. That’s the line you have to draw for your own sanity and mind, otherwise, you’ll die alone even if you have thousands of people from the outside pining for you. ”
“After all, love from a person that knows you from heart to soul is more better than superficial love from a servant or a fan. ”
“Trust no one, always believe that even your own best friend can stab you in the back once you’re down. ”
” Niichan thank you! I will forever remember you! ”
“Remember me then when you’re at the top of the world. I see potential in you kid. ”
“Thank you niichan! ”
“Yes yes, take care. ”
Tenshi waved his hands behind him and walked towards the gate with a smile on his face, behind him Sora ran frantically.
“Niichan wait! ”
Tenshi revealed an ugly smile, he was waiting for this.
“Huh? What sora?”
Tenshi turned and chuckled, his eyes on the blue glasses the boy was wearing. Right now, Sora’s face was filled with anticipation and anxiety as if he was a bride waiting for her husband to take her first time.
Tenshi rolled his eyes at the comparison.
“Niichan, can I call you sensei? ”
“Sensei?? ”
“Yes sensei! Please accept this ungrateful Sora as your disciple! ”
The boy said as he bowed down with his body bent as low as his body would let him, an extreme gesture of respect only reserved for parents and teachers.
Tenshi cracked his knuckles as a sharp gaze came from his eyes.
“Kid, do you even know what is needed for one to become my disciple? ”
“N-no sensei! ”
“You’re pretty shameless to call me sensei even though I haven’t accepted you, I like that. Nonetheless, do you know how to cultivate kid? ”
Tenshi asked, a clever glint in his eyes as he asked the main reason for his disapproval of accepting this kid as his disciple.
It was just a way for him to milk out information.
Tenshi desperately needed information, especially regarding martial arts.
The boy slightly hesitated, but after realizing that this man was this inspirational and also knew about martial arts, his want to become his disciple increased even more. With that, Sora decided to spill the beans.
“Yes sensei, my mother used to be a rogue cultivator so she had cultivation techniques with her. I always cultivated using them. ”
The boy stood up and grinned with sadness. His mother died a very long time ago, otherwise, his family’s state wouldn’t be like this.
“What happened to her then? ”
Tenshi was nosy, but his curiosity towards other people’s mothers were even more.
“Dead. She took her life after my father beat her up one day. ”
The sad look on his face was replaced with unending anger as he gnashed his teeth.
“Weak. She was weak!”
“Indeed. She was a bad mother. She had children to look after, and just by being beaten up she decided to take her own life? She could’ve stood up and beat her husband!”
“I know sensei, she didn’t care about our lives nor our situation. If she was alive I would’ve killed her with my own hands. ”
Sora laughed, his glasses trembling as a side effect of his frantic laughter.
Tenshi looked at him and wryly smiled. This was the effect a mother had on her child, neglect leads to an evil yet affection seeking child. He could almost imagine Sora marrying a woman thrice his age as a side effect of his mother neglecting him.
Psychology eh?
Tenshi looked at his watch.
12:58PM
“Show me your strength then kid, if it turns out to be satisfactory, I’ll make you my disciple!”
Since he was masquerading as a very mysterious person, he had to act cool and all-knowing, meaning that he couldn’t ask him about Cultivation Realms and whatnot.
Sora nodded and looked at his surroundings, after making sure that there was no one else in the area except them, he put his hands forward in the air and without a sound, a small ball of bronze fire started to emerge in his hands.
The fire wasn’t anything special, it was just that within the flames, small dark threads rose and fell like smoke.
Tenshi eyes brightened as he moved his hands on top of the flames curiously, the hand without the watch of course since he wanted to see if the flames were as scary as they looked.
As soon as his hand came in contact with the flame, Tenshi regretted his curiously.
It was a bad choice as his hands felt as if they were dropped into a boiling pot of water. Tenshi hurriedly took back his hand and said with a calm expression, courtesy of his acting skills.
“Good. Very Good. ”
<what’s his=”” level?=””></what’s>
[19 or something. By looking at his effortless manipulation of Qi, I can guess that he’s a genius at cultivation.]
Tenshi smiled.
Tenshi had his arm on Sora’s head as he exited the park.
The sun right now was even more brutal, it directly burned Tenshi’s eyes as he put his hands above them to protect them while Sora stood behind his back, trying to use him as a shield.
Tenshi walked with Sora on the sidewalk and after seeing that the park’s gate was slightly far away and no one was here, Tenshi calmly smiled.
“Do you want that cheating couple to live or to die? ”
Tenshi asked with a monotone voice, just by hearing Sora’s description about the girl, he could judge that she was the average childhood friend who eventually cheats on her lover; that too, guiltlessly.
“I want them to die Tenshi-sensei, I want them to die a death they never anticipated! ”
“Good. As expected of my disciple! ”
“But Sensei, who will do it? I’m pretty sure I’ll kill them the next time they appear in front of me. I don’t want that, because I’ll be chucked into jail right? ”
“Don’t worry, Sensei will take care of it. ”
“But sensei, isn’t that kind of rude for me to be asking for your help in a murder just at the first meeting? ”
“Nah, just think of it as my first gift to you. Just check the newspaper tomorrow, I’ll make sure they’re turned into meat patties.”
Tenshi and Sora laughed, fully accepting the fact that they had become disciple and sensei.
Of course, Tenshi had fed various types of lies into Sora’s mind such as him being a super powerful and affluent person.
Tenshi secretly chuckled.
Sora was elated at the thought of getting such an overpowered and super-affluent person as his sensei while Tenshi was elated at the thought of getting a new future subordinate.
Both of them had their own interests in mind, like teacher like student, both of them were shameless and benefit driven.
[I’ve truly never seen such a teacher and student pair before, both of them are so alike each other]
“Sir!? ”
As Tenshi and Sora were standing on a sidewalk and quietly gossiping. They didn’t notice a four car envoy stopping in front of them. All of the cars were of a single model, 2017 Lexus LX 570.
The bright sunlight hit the Lexus’s sleek and smooth white body, making it seem more dazzling than it was in reality.
A white suited middle aged man came out of a car and calmly walked towards Tenshi. His tanned skin was glowing in the bright sunlight.
Hearing a familiar voice call his name, Tenshi turned towards the voice as he subconsciously changed his posture into that of a more relaxed and powerful one.
Tenshi’s eyes turned cold as he brutally smiled, his smile bringing out the charm in his roughish and evil face.
Seeing this Nero was a bit flummoxed, how did this dude suddenly turn a bit slim and more evil looking? But nonetheless, he controlled his surprise and bowed.
“Sir. We’re here to receive you. ”
As usual, even when facing more bigger individuals than him, Nero talked less and kept his face emotionless.
Seeing this, Tenshi was confused a little bit, wasn’t this guy super emotional and super talkative last night? Oh well, it must’ve been the influence of the large amount of alcohol he drank.
“Okay, let’s go Nero.”
“S-sensei, you’re so coool!! ”
Sora’s eyes turned starry as he saw the envoy here to receive his sensei, how cool!
“Hm? ”
Nero looked in confusion at the boy beside Tenshi, who was this kid?
A sudden thought began to bloom in his mindhe remembered one day when he visited a judge’s home and saw a couple of boys dressed in maid clothes addressing the judge as sensei while they massaged his body
Nero grimaced in disgust. The moaning sounds that pig like judge let out that day scarred him for life.
Nero looked at Tenshi and suddenly felt his opinion for him drop
Tenshi waved at the starry eyed Sora and walked towards the car.
Nero seeing this tched and hurriedly opened the door which Tenshi was about to enter with.
Tenshi sneered and went in while Nero sweated bullets. He remembered that his boss said yesterday to not offend this guy, furthermore, he heard that Tenshi showered in the blood of his opponents.
Nero gulped.
Tenshi smiled as the cool air from the air conditioner seeped through his clothes and started to cool his body; the heat outside was too much for him to handle in such a heavy attire.
As it was a four seated car, Tenshi’s left side was empty as Nero and another man sat on the driver’s seat.
The man on the wheel was a man with a rough and unkempt beard, he had great muscles and was very tall.
The man right now, however, was dozing off on the wheel as he tiredly breathed, a sign that he didn’t sleep enough.
Nero seeing this gnashed his teeth and hit the back of the man with his arm, it was devoid of any real strength of course.
“WAKE UP HARUTO!! ”
“Huh?! Who dis?! ”
The dozing man stood up and rubbed his eyes, his groggy yet hoarse voice bouncing off everyone’s ears.
“Motherfu-! ”
“Okay okay, I’m awake I’m awake. ”
The man laughed and wiped a string of drool from his mouth, scared shitless of the beating he would receive if he messed with this normally-cold guy.
“Well, if you want to blame someone, blame that kingmaker. I mean, who starts birthday parties at fucking 4am in the morning?! ”
The man called Haruto cursed displeasedly.
“Hey boss, can I call you boss?! ”
After a while of fixing his clothes, the man called Haruto turned back and asked Tenshi, his attitude more chipper than Tenshi expected of someone in the mafia.
“You’re already calling me boss aren’t you?”
Tenshi said while coldly looking at the eyes of Haruto.
“It’s okay then boss~. ”
Haruto turned around and quickly turned on the car, from his memories, Tenshi could derive that this guy was the same guy that chauffeured him home yesterday.
Nero, seeing Haruno’s behavior rolled his eyes. Nonetheless, remembering that incident of Tenshi drinking human blood, Nero suddenly felt scared for Haruto’s safety.
“Sir, please forgive him. He has bi-polar disorder. ”
“Oh? ”
Tenshi nodded and wryly smiled, not knowing why Nero suddenly felt the need to say tell that to him.
” ”
Haruto stayed quiet and started the car as the engine started to make noise.
Tenshi smiled and looked at the beautiful and sleek white interior of the car; this car was also to his taste.
Tenshi looked at the dark from the outside window to his right and saw Sora leave, just a while after that, a girl and a boy left with their arms interlocked.
“Nero, have you seen those two kids exiting the park? ”
Tenshi said as he disinterestedly looked at Nero.
Nero looked at the window.
“Yes sir! ”
“I want you to crush them into meat patties; no, I want you to crush them into meat patties; using a steamroller. ”
Tenshi spoke as slowly as he could, a ruthless and murderous aura leaking out of his body.
He didn’t like them and that was enough. Furthermore, they hurt his so called disciple.
“Of course sir, your wish is our command. ”
Nero replied nonchalantly, he had until now, killed many children and elderly under the orders of his boss, of course he would occasionally refuse if they were innocent but he was right now not in a position to refuse.
Nero could care less about some unknown children, after all, they weren’t his so why should he be guilty over killing them?
“Haruto, go and click their photos now! ”
“Ah, okay okay.”
Haruto waved his hands and exited the car with a professional camera in his hands.
After he left, Tenshi smiled.
“I want you to make the murder look like an accident, you understand right? The local news channels should have the news that ‘two children playing on the road die under a steamroller accident; their body parts and brain fluids are splatterd all over the streets’.”
“Understood sir! ”
“Good. ”
Seeing Tenshi’s nonchalant look as if he was ordering a chicken to be butchered, Nero, a professional killer suddenly felt scared.
This guy’s a total psycho!
Tenshi looked at the roads and greenery outside the window with a peaceful light in his eyes.
“Nero? ”
“Yes sir?! ”
“I want some information from you. ”
“Ask away sir! ”
Tenshi stiffly moved his neck towards the front seat and licked his lips.
“Say, I heard that your nephew, Endou Riyama, raped a girl from his school one day? ”
Tenshi asked, even he himself until now didn’t know that Endou had once raped a girl, meaning that the mafia helped shut the girl up or she herself isolated herself from fear of humiliation. Hell, he didn’t even know that someone was raped in his school and her video was leaked.
Tenshi wanted that girl. He wanted that girl to testify on court one day after all.
” Sir, don’t ask about that Endou, he’s nothing but shame for me and my boss”
Nero gritted his teeth from the front seat and banged his fists on the car’s interior.
” Easy Nero ”
Haruto said with a sheepish smile on his face.
“I don’t want to hear anything about that blonde haired dude. I just want to learn what and how this happened to her. ”
“Okay sir ”
“The girl’s name is Kaori Mibuya. When she was raped, she was just on the verge of graduating high school while that bastard was a first year student. ”
A silent gaze came from Nero as he stared at the road in front of him.
“She’s a very pitiful girl. She was beautiful and a social elite in her school. I heard she even had a boyfriend she was about to marry ”
Haruto said with a sigh.
“One day while she was returning from school, Endou and his gang kidnapped her andraped her, she was then a virgin and saving her body for her boyfriend. In one day she was ruined, she returned home and cried for an entire day. She didn’t say anything to her parents but they were very suspicious of her. ”
“The next day her confidence and mind were broken as she sat in the classroom emotionlessy, not listening to anyone or even replying to any questions about why she was being like that. ”
“Then, that bastard leaked her video. ”
Nero sneered in disgust.
“That very day she was left by her boyfriend and mocked ruthlessly in school. When she returned home her parents locked her in her room and made her forever stay there. ”
“The school staff confiscated everyone’s phones, gadgets and wiped everything off from them. They even forbade the students from leaking this video to somewhere else except school. ”
“But of course, how would that work? Some of them had copies of it in their homes and whatnot. ”
“Except that, I don’t know anything else. The girl or her family didn’t press charges as, just a month later, Endou’s father won the elections. ”
Tenshi calmly heard all of these and nodded.
“Take me to her home later, I want something from her. But for now, take me to the Government Hospital. I have some plans. ”
