Spurting out blood, the Leader weakly lifted his gaze to meet Narukami's eyes.
"What are you? A monster? No, you're more terrifying than that. You are… a devil."
Fear was evident in the Leader's voice. His lips were trembling.
Before he reached this state. He saw Narukami use foreign abilities and despite the Leader's strength was more powerful than Narukami.
Those abilities weakened it and made Narukami stronger instead. The more power output the Leader used, the more terrifying Narukami was.
This meant that the longer the battle was, the more monstrous Narukami was going to be.
This guy isn't a human! The Leader probably thought.
He was sweating all over the place as he saw Narukami slowly approach.
Regardless, the Leader was someone who had reached Level 10. Someone like that won't succumb to emotions that easily, let alone give up.
He quickly gained his calm and focus.
"Are you going to kill me?" The Leader asked.
Narukami halted his step before the Leader before coldly replying, "I don't have the reason to kill you. Though you've hurt my friend, don't think I'm going to let you escape easily."
The Leader was stunned for a second before he chuckled, "You do all of this because I hurt your friend?"
Narukami did not respond.
Seeing that, the Leader sighed as he shook his head, "I genuinely don't understand how your brain works. No benefits are saving your friend, only risks. What are you? Hero of Justice?"
"From your point of view, that is." Narukami did not bother to explain this guy. He gained the last ingredient to concoct the potion so he could advance to the next Level.
The Leader frowned. It appeared he guessed it wrong but the Leader wasn't too surprised. He was not omniscient, just a guy with strange powers.
"May I ask why you want to kill me? I believe you have more reasons other than that," the Leader asked doubtfully.
"Didn't I tell you? Do you want me to repeat myself?" Narukami's eyes were cold.
Looking at his eyes, the Leader felt seeing billions of corpses stacked, forming mountains of corpses and Narukami stood at the highest mountain with blood covering his bodies as he looked down on him.
This is… The Leader said to himself as he was petrified and stunned. He looked around and found himself on the ground filled with corpses and blood.
"Welcome to my Illusion Realm," Narukami then smiled.
This is this kid's Illusion Realm? It's many times stronger than mine! No wonder I can't pull him into my Illusion Realm! The Leader was alarmed and his heartbeat rapidly improved.
The Leader's first thought was to escape but recalling how many tricks Narukami had under his sleeves, the idea of running away was quickly thrown away.
Narukami could easily find him no matter how fast or where he hid. Even if he hid in a place where no one could find him, it was only a matter of time before Narukami found him.
"Oh? You seem calm. It seems you've accepted your fate." Narukami's tone was playful.
"Nowhere else could I escape. You're the strongest individual I've met other than All Beyond's HQ grandmaster."
"You've fought him before?" Narukami asked.
"Many times we fought secretly. I always end up losing," the Leader replied as he shook his head.
"How strong is he?" Narukami pondered as he was not interested in them fighting secretly. It was none of his concern after all.
His next target was the HQ grandmaster after all. If he could estimate his strength from the Leader, he could make a plan to avoid being beaten black and blue.
He had many things under his sleeves but in front of true strength. Tricks were futile. Narukami also thought that the HQ grandmaster was an extremely cautious person, hence rarely showing his face in public.
"Are you going to target him next?" The Leader frowned.
Narukami's eyes squinted in ridicule as he smiled, "guess."
After a long pause, the Leader hesitatingly requested, "how about we work together? I can help you to kill him."
Narukami did not respond and so, the Leader thought he was interested and so, he continued, "of course, I will provide you with resources, information, and everything you need, I can give it to you."
The Leader tried his luck to negotiate. Although the chance of success was painfully low, it was worth the try. No harm either.
Narukami fell silent for a brief moment, "Anything I want?"
"Yes, anything!" The Leader's eyes lit up as he realized that Narukami was interested, or so he thought.
The Leader's eyes widened as he was confused because, in his vision, he saw his body but without a head.
"Eh?" The Leader blurted out in surprise as he began to fall. His headless body plopped to the ground, causing small ripples on the pool of blood.
Landing on the ground with a bounce, the Leader thought he was dying but he was not!
His vision was clear and he was clear-headed. It was no different than having a body!
"What? Don't think that you can die easily," said Narukami in a calm manner. But this manner was many times more terrifying than other expressions.
The Leader could feel his hair standing on edge!
"Wh-what are you going to do to me?" The Leader stuttered.
"Don't worry, nothing big. Just want to turn your body to pieces."
"How are you going to…" the Leader frowned as he was wondering how Narukami was going to do it.
He was standing at the peak of the highest mountain of corpses amongst the mountains here.
Would he go here? Or use other means?
As soon as the word sounded out. The motionless corpses suddenly moved!
Next, they rose and walked to where the Leader's body was.
One of the corpses grabbed his arm and broke it!
"Argh!"
His broken arm was only warm-up. Following that was to break every bone in his body. Ribs, legs, arms, backbone, nothing left unharmed!
Sharp, aching pain transmitted to his brain. He shrieked in agony.
As this was Narukami's Illusion Realm. Narukami willed it and made the Leader quite sensitive to pain and made sure he would not faint.
Crack! Crack!
After cracking noises, an agonizing pain followed. It was deafening and would instill fear in those who heard it.
Narukami then ordered the corpses to stop what they were doing.
"Stop! Please stop!" His eyes were bloodshot and he coughed out blood. Not sure the science behind that though.
"When you kill people, do you stop when they plead you for mercy? When your men brought a bunch of innocent lives for sacrifice to your god, you heard their cry and begged you for their lives. Answer me this, do you stop?"
"That's…" the Leader couldn't look Narukami in the eyes. He turned his eyes to the left and right.
"No, you proceed as if their lives are nothing. You treat their lives as light as feathers.
"I know what you are thinking, the strong rules and the weak could only blame their weakness for their end and that applied to everyone, all in all including you, Leader-kun." When Narukami said the last word, it was filled with ridicule.
The Leader was furious. His eyes narrowed in anger as veins bulged.
He, a powerful Sorcerer who led a powerful organization that many organizations feared, including All Beyond, reached such a pitiful state by a brat!
The humiliation was enormous yet there was nothing he could do. Even if he became toxic, nothing changed.
This helplessness, since when did I last feel it? The Leader thought to himself and felt nostalgic, not sad in the slightest.
Narukami was a bit surprised that the Leader wasn't as furious as he imagined.
But he felt like it made sense. The Leader was someone who had been against many trials and rocks in his life of becoming a Level 10 expert, managing an organization, reaching what it was today.
He could be considered as successful but his life was otherwise. Killing and plundering for the sake of chaos, for the sake of descending an evil god to reset the world.
Hum, though I have to admit this guy isn't what I imagined, Narukami said to himself.
He imagined that the Leader would be a cult lunatic that had completely lost his mind, only knew madness and logic were no longer in his dictionary.
Following instinct for the rest of his life. That was what Narukami thought of the Leader.
But he was gravely mistaken. The Leader was calm even in the face of death. He did not succumb to his anger after being ridiculed.
How did such a guy turn to this? Narukami frowned. He felt that it was weird.
The impression Narukami get from the Leader after their short battle was that the Leader was an exceedingly calm person, not rash but a bit reckless, a bit arrogant, and quite sinister but the point was, this guy had his calm and could think clearly, even thinking the big picture.
The big picture here meant that the Leader was able to hold himself from embarrassing himself even more.
