The World We Do Not Know - 176 Rage

*Thud*

Another hit on Faust’s head! This time he does not understand what had happened, he looks at Kira who is wearing a cocky smile on his face. But Kira does a favor for Faust, he takes off his gloves and punches Faust with his bare knuckles.

The Mighty general might have developed a soft spot for Faust. “Wake up! or I will hit you again!” Kira yells at Faust who is breathing heavily, laying on his back on the ground.

The words immediately lit a spark in the heart of Faust! “Wake up! I want to fight you.” is how the words echoed in the ears of Faust. He immediately got up on his feet.

Every muscle and fiber in his body is twitching as he forces himself to stand up on his wobbling foot.

*Thud* Another hit onto his forehead, the cut keeps hurting him more with every beating he takes.

“A battle to the death! That is the only thing that can help you ascend this human body! ” Daniel sputters under his breath, relishing the bloody mess in front of him.

Faust shoves the tired body up on his feet again, blurry vision and died blood caked all over his face, his almost wasted body is leaning to one side completely, while he is staggering on the verge of fainting, he tries to calculate for an opening to get a chance to teleport near Kira to land a lethal attack.

To his surprise, before Faust could make a move, Kira disappeared and appeared right in front of him.

“Dammit! I’m slow again!” Faust can determine that Kira is in front of him ready to throw his punches onto his already wounded head.

Yet, Faust’ body did not respond as he wants and another hit directed on his head, but this time Faust blocked the punch with both of his hands on his forehead, palms facing out. He escaped a smirk for being able to obstruct the punch.

Faust’ stupidity is annoying Kira more rather than amusing him. He grits his teeth in anger. “Why don’t you just stay down?” Kira lands another hit on the palms of Faust. Where now, the punch is swift and heavy, Faust, rather than being able to block the punch, he hit himself back due to the force of the impact.

His knuckles struck back on his cut, splattering out blood and the numbness suddenly turned into a sharp pain. The cut is opened more and Kira is only targeting his wound over and over.

He is showing no kind of mercy to Faust,  landing thunder-like punches, his arms are rṣesembling pistons that are pounding on Faust and all Faust is doing is blocking them with his hands while being overwhelmed by pain.

His eyes are starting to pour down involuntarily, “Kira! He is just a soldier class! What is taking you so long? kill him if you need to use all of your strength!” Suddenly a scream is heard from the balcony.

The old minister jumps out of his chair, coming to the edge of the balcony, he places his hands on the railing, leans over and yells at Kira to end the fight quickly. Also saying how according to nobles, Faust is still being seen as a mere soldier. He became a captain only because of Tsumugi and normally it takes a person at least four years to become a captain class.

“I cannot wait! he he he – I cannot fucking wait!” The face of the mister turns dark, his white hair which is divided in the middle falls onto his face as he smiles creepily.

“I cannot wait to kick that woman out! Imagine the things I’m going to do to her once she is kicked out of the house!” He exclaims in front of eleven nobles and three royals.

“I will make her my slave and she will become my own personal toy, I will make her do everything that she has never even imagined doing in her life.” saliva drools from his stinking mouth as he declares his desires.

“Like we will let that happen you thick head!” Carlos says in an arrogant tone as he lays back on his chair and munching on some snacks.

Faust realizes that he is talking about Tsumugi, he is getting pushed back slowly with each punch from Kira. Under the raining punches, Faust turns towards Tsumugi.

“Clara?”

Faust is surprised, his arms are loosened, even Kira is surprised seeing Faust softening his defense.

Clara is the teacher of Faust who took care of him when he is eleven-years-old, she is considerate and kind to him when the whole village despised his existence.

“Faust! Clara is kidnapped by her ex-boyfriend and his hired goons.”

“I will bring her back!”

–

“We found her body in the area, she has been dead for three days.”

“No”

“They punched her brutally, even for us guards who are trained to be strong mentally, it’s hard to imagine what she has gone through.”

“They punched her face alone for thirty-three times, raped her, her insides are cut and torn. killed her and raped her body again before finally burning her dead body.”

“Please say it slowly, a kid is living in next door!”

“Come down to the villa later to identify and collect her body.”

“So it happened because she has to live alone outside without any of her family members supporting her.”

“She would have been alive if she is living with her dad!”

“I’m sorry Clara!” Faust weeps while looking towards Tsumugi.

As his eyes clear, he looks at Tsumugi who is concerningly watching him. “She doesn’t deserve any of it.”

“HUH? WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU SAYING! YOU ARE DYING TODAY!” Kira while shouting his lungs out in rage keeps punching Faust repeatedly.

“Over and over and over and over and over! How many times you wanna hit my wound?” Faust looking down grinds his teeth slowly, he clenches his jaw as his body is vibrating vigorously as his anger is building up, he loses all of his strength and collapses onto the ground lifelessly.

The whole Arena is resonating with the beauty of silence. Everyone can hear the sound of their heart pounding fast and racing within their chest. They all are concerned about Faust, while the old minister and Kira are celebrating.

“If only he possesses an ounce of Spiritual power! The outcome of this matchup could be different.” Thorik utters his pities for Faust in his words, he can in a way relate to Faust since he himself was ridiculed in the past for having less Spiritual power.

“Even if he possess spiritual power! You cannot foresee the fact that he is up against a general class!” Carlos adds his sympathies.

Faust is on the ground, laying on his face. The referee paces inside the arena towards Faust, to confirm if he is still conscious.

The void that is surrounding in the Arena is suddenly shattered by a loud noise caused by lightning in the clouds. Everyone is equally surprised and are looking at the sky in confusion, but Daniel alone is shocked by the incident.

“Where is he getting all this power from?” Daniel mutters under his breath while looking at Faust who is lying lifeless in the dirt.

Leviathan catches what Daniel has spoken, he turns back in surprise “I-Is this his doing father?” He asks Daniel in a rather hasty tone.

Daniel does not reply but he keeps glaring at Faust. “What is happening?” Kira asks himself while looking at the sky.

By this time, the whole sky is taken over by thick dark clouds, turning the day into night.

*swoosh~~*

In no time, air circles around Faust and suddenly black aura is seen oozing from his skin.

*Thud!!*

The air is gushing out from his premises and the ground beneath him is slowly shattering around his body.

“Father! I-is that your doing?” Leviathan asks with a blank face as he is staring into the sky.

Daniel follows him to take a look at the thing that made his son stutter. Daniel is in disbelief, the cloud right above the arena has a clean huge hole in between with the centre sucking the air surrounding it.

As everyone is watching the sky in amusement, Faust’s body shows movement and the whole cloud is divided into two, making it look like as if the sky itself is split into two.

“Is it done finally? hahaha! The key to the god’s realm! Dream of Mankind from centuries. Will they make the most of it? Or will they fall victim?” Far away in the fifth dimension of spirits, Uriel, the ruler of the dimension is alarmed by the aura that is released from Faust.

In the same moment, the Kings and Rulers of every other existing dimension feel the presence of Faust just like Uriel.

Meanwhile, Faust’s body starts moving by floating in the air and stands on its own, his eyes look lifeless, he does not blink even once and keeps staring like a lifeless doll.

The black stone that is on his armlet releases black mist-like aura, the cloud of mist immediately wraps around his whole left arm, tearing the long sleeves of his white shirt. Soon the black cloud devours his whole body like a different entity taking over him with his eyes last to be devoured before his whole body is mummified with black mist.

Shortly, as the mist is starting to clear from the top, Faust is seen with long spiky black hair that is up to his waist, his hair has grown long in the small-time, his eyes are closed and the wound on his forehead is completely healed.

The black mist disappears into thin air unveiling his upper body, his already worn-out shirt fell off as it could not handle the immense pressure of the aura emitting from his body, showing his broad shoulders and sturdy chest that look like strong armoured plates, followed by his well defined abdominal muscles and strong lats muscles that form the perfect V below his navel.

There are some uncertain marks present on his face as well. A black line is drawn just under his eyes on the lower eyelid in the form of the crescent moon that begins and end with a small stroke on the tear duct and outer ‘V’.

Another mark of a closed eyelid forms on his forehead, inches above where both of his eyebrows meet. His body slowly hits the ground, landing on his feet. slowly opening his eyes.

At this very same moment the sword of Ashura in the main building which was said to be gifted by demons, shows a very slight moment as one side of the sword falls from the stand that is balancing it.

*hrrrrrrrr hrrrrrrr!*

After opening his eyes, his eyes fiercely scan everyone in front of him in a swift movement. His breath almost sounds like the growl of a hungry beast who was searching for his prey.

His eyes catch the purple katana that is given to him by Neith while he lived under her care. He stretches his right hand to the back of his waist as he draws the sword, a portal opens behind him and a pitch-black coloured sword with golden carvings, surfaces in his hands.

As soon as the handle of the katana is in his grip, the sword starts to vibrate vigorously. The blade is striking against the scabbard from inside that produces a strange stuttering sound across the Arena.

Only one person in the whole Arena recognizes the sword that he is holding ‘Fukitsuna Masamune’, the unholy sword that is used by Ares! But she is in disbelief to see the sword appear before her after thirty years and the colour of the sword is changed from white to black.

Elizabeth comes forward from her seat while glaring at the sword, the expressions on her face a combination of fear and shock.

“He has two swords?” Being surprised, Tsumugi asks her squad in a low voice without being able to divert her eyes from the divine form of Faust.

“The hell are you brat? You think you can scare me with this puny exhibition?” Kira yells from the other side of the Arena.

The purple stone on his glove starts to glimmer and he rushes towards Faust. It all happened very quickly for the people in the Arena.

Faust just stood there with his sword in his hands, he did not attack or defend. Gaurda is behind him with his back against Faust and a decapitated leg is seen twirling in the air.
