The Villain’s Light - Chapter 134

The old man raises his brows after bearing Reif’s words. He was as if saying that Reif is too audacious to spout such arrogant words

In return, Reif waved his hand and the corpse of the President appeared. Only then did the Vice President show a bit of panic in his eyes

After all, the President is the one with the highest influence and power in the whole organization. If he died in Reif’s hands then the Vice President could also meet the same fate

It was normal for this old man to reveal a bit of his emotions after seeing that corpse

“I-I see, you want me to replace the President and control the whole merchant group through me, right?”

The old man revealed Reif’s plan. His discerning eyes seems to have pierced through everything that Reif is thinking

Such a crafty man definitely should be controlled by Reif as he would be helpful to him

“You know of my plans. Choose now” Reif said impatiently as another slave mark was created by him

He wants to put this old man under his control as soon as possible and he had the slave mark float towards him

If the old man accepted the slave mark then all is well. But if not, Reif doesn’t have any other choice but to kill him

The old man closes his eyes with a sigh as if he was surrendering to his fate. He let the slave mark approach him but when it almost landed in his body, he suddenly moves

Despite the gravitational pressure, the old man’s power still bursts as a talisman appeared in his hand that he immediately tears apart

As soon as that happens, Reif senses several strong auras erupting and approaching this place

Sure enough, crafty people are harder to deal with!

Reif clicked his tongue in annoyance as he dashed at the old man with full power

The old man although has some strength with him is still nowhere near Reif and he wasn’t able to react or dodge

In the end, the old man got dragged by Reif and they entered a spatial portal. When they exited it, the two were already in the skies above the main building of the merchant group

“Don’t assume that I want your organization completely intact. All I need is people that would do everything as I said!” Reif said harshly as he lowered his palm and it faces the building below

“This is the result of your disobedience” he said before he had the whole building explode, killing even the people inside it

The whole large building vanishes in the face of the world with a crimson bang and the death count exponentially increases

Since that building was the main branch, the people inside it are mostly the highest-ranking members

The death of a single high ranking member is a big issue for the organization but tons of them dies today

The old man looks at Reif in disbelief. Although he already sense that Reif was a madman, he didn’t expect that he would be this big of a madman!

Isn’t he coveting the merchant group’s power and influence? How could he damage its foundation to this extent?!!

Without a shred of respect for the elderly, Reif grabs the old man in the neck as he exerts force into his palm

“The choice is still the same as before. This is your last chance!”

The old man felt helpless. He originally thought that as long as he alerts the whole organization, he would be able to defeat Reif but turns out that wasn’t the case

Reif single-handedly destroyed the main headquarters and was quite effortless at that!

In the whole world, there are too few people that could do that

Just what is the identity of Reif for him to do such a heartless thing?

Perhaps only the Imperial Family and the Church have people strong enough to do this but they don’t have the motive to do so unless…

The old man’s eyes trembled in realization as he stared at Reif in horror

“Y-you’re Reif… the demon that the whole church is hunting” he forced out those words from his throat that is being held tightly by Reif

The man didn’t give an answer except for further tightening his hold on this old man’s neck

That was more than confirmation though and the old man was forced to accept the slave mark

He now knows who he is dealing with and sadly, he was also a person of high status that don’t want to die yet. As such, he could only accept being this demon’s slave forever for survival

“Take control of what is left of your merchant organization  and if I ask for you to meet me, you will meet me no matter what you are doing!” Reif said, not taking no for an answer before moving towards his next target

——

Pain. Painful. This is too painful

Those are the thoughts that Rhash has inside his mind as the people of the church never stop to torture him

They badly wanted him to surrender and urge Reif to die and only then would they stop

However, no matter how painful it was, Rhash didn’t give up. He knew that one day, Reif would come and rescue him from the real devils in this world

The real devils are not him of Reif. It was Nath and his rotten church!

Suddenly, Rhash felt the torture being stopped and the clerics moved away from him

“Your Holiness!” The clerics greeted and Rhash weakly raises his head to glare at the person he would never forgive even in death

Nath still looks as perfect as clean as before yet Rhash looks even dirtier than beggars in the street

His whole body was covered with scars that are already starting to heal. His body’s natural healing ability made it easier for him to be tortured

Others would die after some torture but since Reif can heal easily, it made his suffering even more miserable

“Leave” Nath ordered and the clerics immediately obeyed

Now, only Rhash and Nath was left inside the room

“Why are you here? Also trying to vent out your frustrations for not being able to kill Reif nor forcing me to surrender?” Rhash questioned with a chuckle

No matter how much of a miserable state he ends in, he still doesn’t have any plan of giving Nath the satisfaction

He wouldn’t despair and he is sure that his hope is out there fighting and planning to rescue him

“No, you are mistaken. I came here for another thing” Nath answered with a smile and that smile is not something that Rhash wants to see

He was sure that that smile is nothing good and Rhash’s heart instantly entered an alarm state

“Heh… seeing your reaction, I guess you could feel that I won’t do something good to you” Nath said and this time, it was his turn to chuckle

“No matter what you do,  you wouldn’t be able to break me” Rhash said harshly and Nath instantly laugh hard

“Hahahahaha! Break you? No! I already realize that breaking you is an impossible thing. Don’t worry, that is not my plan!” Nath reassured him and the bad premonition that Rhash has grown stronger as he raises his brows

“It’s not you that I would break. It is you beloved Reif!”

“I was being too stupid before. You are already in my hands you are that demon’s greatest weakness, his reverse scale”

“With you in my hands, I could easily break that demon!”

Rhash’s eyes trembled. Sure enough, this man is not up to something good

In anger, Rhash tried to break the chain in his body but as usual, he failed. At his peak, he can’t free himself what more now that he is in an extremely weakened state

The clerics made sure that he wouldn’t die but they also didn’t let him recover his strength

As such, he was far from being at his peak power and he won’t have the power to break free and escape from here

“Don’t even bother” Nath said with a sneer and with a wave of his hand, the chains retracted

As soon as that happens, Rhash immediately dashed at Nath, trying to kill him but before he could even reach him, he was already confined in a cage

“I’m sure you miss that demon already, right? Don’t worry, you would be able to see him soon. I wonder how touching would it be when that time comes!” Nath said cruelly and he took away Rhash from his cell as he arrives at a place familiar to the both of them

It was the space that Salamander previously resided in. It was the very same place that Reif and Rhash was plotted against by Nath

The place that Rhash got captured in.. The death energies inside it were not as strong as before anymore but Rhash still don’t like this place. It reminded him of how weak he was
