The World We Do Not Know - 129 The Warning
“Heh, say goodnight kid.”The leader jumps to Faust in one leap, he holds the sword in such a way that the sharp side of the blade is facing outside of his hold and he swings the knife in front of the neck of Faust to slit his head open.
“Huh?” The knife is on the skin of Faust, but it did not cut or go through. The leader is surprised at why his knife did not get through.
“A cheap illusion I would say.” Faust is sounding abnormal than now. His voice is not calm or arrogant as it is till now. He sounds like a crazy guy.
Faust holds the tip of the blade with his fingertips before it digs into his skin. He turns his face towards the leader who is on his right. The eyes of the leader widen. The right eye of Faust is all red with green pupil.
He stopped the knife with his left hand and his right hand is holding the case. Faust goes for a strike with the case onto the stomach of the leader. He swings the case from backwards, The leader pushes his body back and swiftly tries to move away from Faust.
“What?” The leader cannot move back, Faust held his right wrist tightly, the same hand that he tried to attack with a knife. He got himself caught and unable to go away from Faust.
*”How is a kid, so strong.”* He thinks for himself while anticipating where the next attack comes from.
Faust again swings the case to his front from the side, targeting the abdomen of the leader. Realizing he cannot go back, the leader pushes his gut back and bends his chest forward to avoid the strike.
As the case came closer to his abdomen, the case instantly disappeared and the right hand of Faust travels upwards fast and grips the neck of the leader.
*”It’s a feint.”* The leader played into the hands of Faust.
Faust is suffocating the neck of the man without mercy, as he is not able to talk anymore, an electric structure is broken with a cloud of black smoke coming from the neck of the leader.
“Huh?” A computer frame to protect your neck? Lame.” Faust grunts out and grips his neck tightly again.
“Ahh” He screams, but his voice is different than before. So the frame is a voice changer? Faust thought.
Faust is suspicious and wanted to see who is behind the mask. He reaches for the mask and pulls it down. For is frozen for a moment, it is Melissa from the shop he just visited.
His grip on her wrist loosens, Melissa finds the opening that Faust gave her, while he in shock, she flips the knife towards Faust in her hand and goes to ram the knife in his eye.
Instantly, Faust blocks the knife by landing a hit on the forearm of Melissa with the lower side of his hand, with the soft part between the wrist and fingers. Blocking her hand from stabbing him, he swings his right hand back as he slaps her on her cheeks with the back of his hand.
His knuckles dig inside her cheeks, causing her unbearable pain, he then swings the same hand to his front and slaps her again on the other side of her face.
The slap paralyzes Melissa with a shock. Half of her face is numb while she keeps hearing a bell ringing constantly in her head.
To end this fight, Faust takes a step towards her, clenches his fists tightly and lands a powerful uppercut. Only the knuckle bone on his middle finger makes direct contact with her chin. Her chin clamped with her upper set of teeth, it sent a jolt to her brain and she immediately rolls her eyes up and falls on the ground lifeless.
Faust immediately turns back around and looks up at the roof behind him. It’s the man from the shop he traded the stones. He said, he met with an accident and could not move his limbs. But he is on top of the roof with a crossbow aimed at Faust.
*”How did he notice me? Anyway, he wouldn’t be able to stop this!”* He mutters in his head while being surprised, at the same time decides to shoot Faust anyway and shoots his crossbow that is glimmering in green.
The green elemental stone provides extra wind and enhances the speed of the projectiles they shoot. And the man has three green stones embedded in his crossbow.
He rained arrows made of air, the arrows keep raining down on Faust, but none of them hit him. The shopkeeper on the roof gets scared by seeing
Faust. The arrows keep landing on the concrete roads while Faust is casually walking without getting hit by an arrow.
He then sees Neith is having trouble with the rest of seven people. He tilts his face to a side like a lunatic and his lips form a creepy curve as he smiles.
*Snap* He snaps his fingers and all seven of them who circled Neith and trying to fight her are now around Faust. They are surprised and before they even realize, the arrows from the shopkeeper’s crossbow hit four of them and they collapse immediately.
Seeing what he did, the shopkeeper holds his shooting, and immediately, Neith teleports in front of him and her swords are on the neck of him. He dropped his crossbows and surrendered. The three on the ground with Faust, also dropped their guns and tasers as they surrender.
“Kneel down!” Faust commands the three of them.
The robbers kneel down in a circle around Faust. Faust enjoys the view as he laughs. Finally, he gives a psychotic stare to the old man sitting in front of the stairs.
*Sleeeck*
The heads of the three robbers kneeling down around Faust in a circle fly in the air with blood squirting out of their decapitated bodies. Faust does not have a sword, nor does he move his hands. But the heads of the three are cleanly cut at the same time.
“Faust!” Neith, shouts at the horrible self of Faust. “You need not kill them, they have surrendered,” Neith yells at him.
The curtain beside the old man opens at the same time and Bang walks out slowly with his huge body. His body covered the whole stairway.
He came as a security to the old man. Everyone can sense the blood lust emitting from Faust.
“You don’t understand!” The old man sitting in front of the stairway lifts his head up. His amber eyes look Faust straight in the eye as Faust utters the words.
I won’t give second chances, if one is thinking about messing with me. I will make him go through real hell. I will burn his arms multiple times at the same spot. I will burn it, heal it and repeat until his tendons start to profuse pus. I will then cut off his limbs and peel his skin slowly, torturing his body as his soul will scream endlessly, while he is still alive and barely breathing, I will make him feel the pain and the experience of hellish punishment.
“Then I will hang him to the wall as a showpiece. He is like the deer to me which I had hunted. Thus, Do not try to scare me, I will pay you back tenfold.” Even though at first it sounds like an explanation to Neith. The last two lines seemed like they are directed towards the old man and Bang.
Faust walks away after saying what he wanted and Neith follows him without saying a word to Bang.
