Chapter 236

Orion is now holding Leon’s throat in his hand and there is a menacing smile on his face.

’How did he do that...? How the hell did he became so much stronger all of a sudden ?

Fuck... I have to get out of his hands.’ Leon thought with a serious expression as he immediately used the mana threads that he binded to the Nyxter’s blades earlier.

The blades immediately flew out of their sheath and silently went behind Orion’s back.

"Don’t even think of making any sounds, this house is covered in a special spell that can stop any sound from going-" Before Orion could’ve completed his sentence, all the blades came at him from behind with full speed.

*Stab-Stab-Stab-Stab-Stab*

"FUCKKKKKKK... FUCKKK... IT HURTSSSS." Orion shouted as he immediately let go of Leon’s neck and tried to get the blades out of his back.

"Dusk now." Leon ordered with a serious expression.

"Yes, Master." Dusk spoke as he immediately revealed himself and transformed into his original form.

Without wasting another second, Dusk jumped over Orion’s back and used his skill.

As soon as he used the skill, a very heavy gravitational pull was applied over Orion’s body, pushing the Nyxter’s blades even deeper into his back.

"AHHHHHHHHHH... THE BLADDESSS PLEASE STOPPPPP... I-I BEG YOU, PLEASE STOPPPPP." Orion shouted in pain as he couldn’t lift a finger because of the extreme gravity.

"How did you get powerful all of a sudden ? Tell me." Leon asked as he sat down on the floor and looked at him with a serious expression.

"I-I will... Please the swords... They are very painful and T-They are penetrating through my fucking bone-" Before Orion could’ve completed his sentence, Leon picked up a small dagger that was lying inside a fruit basket on the table.

"You are going to answer me or..." Leon spoke as he slowly brought the dagger over Orion’s head.

’Fuck... The force is so strong. The swords should’ve pierced through his body by now but his bones are still holding them even under this pressure. He is far stronger than I thought.

It’s good that I came back with a back-up plan in case he pulls something like this. Although I didn’t expected dusk to have such a powerful skill.’ Leon thought with a serious expression.

"W-Wait... I-If you kill me the magic runes around the village will wear off and everyone will be dead." Orion shouted as he looked at the dagger closing in on his head.

"What !? You have drawn those runes ?" Leon asked with a confused and shocked expression.

"T-The runes are being powered by these soul stones and if you kill me. The power supplying link will break and those runes will be nothing more than stones." Orion spoke as he tried to raise his hand but dusk immediately stopped him using his claw.

*Thud*

"Are you trying to buy time to pull something like before ? Because I am holding this dagger with all my strength. I let go and you will be fucking dead in a second.

I don’t give a shit about villagers, I will run away with the soul stones because those fairies can’t attack you when you hold them right ?" Leon asked with a smile as he brought the dagger closer to his face.

"I-I am not... I-I am telling you the truth. W-When I raised my hand, I casted a strong illusion spell that made all the villagers see their worst fears forming in front of their very eyes.

As soon as their fear spiked, my mana started regenerating rapidly. I-I don’t use normal mana like you, I use-"

"Negative Mana." Leon completed the sentence as he looked at Orion.

’So those runes only stop normal mana from regenerating, but negative mana can be regenerated.

I should’ve considered a possibility.’ Leon thought with a serious expression.

"Yes. Yes... I use negative mana. H-How do you know about-"

"Those soul stones... You took them out of the village. But the runes were still working. How is that possible ?" Leon asked with a serious expression.

"I-I am the link between them and the runes. They will work as long as I stay alive and I am really dying right now... What the hell are these blades even made out of ?

They are piercing my body unlike any other human weapon... If you don’t stop them now. One of them will pierce through my heart and kill me.

The sun is already down and I know you don’t want the blood of so many innocent people on your hands.

So, just remove your blades from my back and my face, w-we might be able to come at some kind of conclusion, right ?" Orion spoke as he looked at Leon.

"Oh... I am not stupid enough to leave you like that." Leon spoke with a smile as he immediately pulled out two wooden beads out of his pocket and showed them to Orion.

"These beads explode when I want them to explode and when they do... Oh, believe me... They make quiet an explosion.

One of them is enough to annihilate you but I am still using two just in case. Now... They will explode as soon as I command them to explode but, they will also explode if you try to take them out.

Do you understand ?" Leon asked with a smile as he showed them to Orion.

"Y-You can’t do that... W-What if you accidentally exploded my body ?" Orion asked with a scared expression as he looked at the beads.

"Well... We have to play the game of luck on that and believe me... If I felt that you are trying to play a trick on me, I will explode your body immediately.

You can enchant your body with magic from outside to get stronger but believe me, on the inside... You are also weak." Leon spoke with a menacing smile as he looked at Orion.

Since the bluff skill was still active, Orion had no choice but to believe in what Leon was saying.

Leon looked at the blades and tried to pull them out using the mana threads but even though he tried his best... The blades weren’t budging from their location.

’The gravitational pull is too strong... I have to use physical force as well.’ Leon spoke as he immediately grabbed one of the blade and pulled it using both mana thread and his hands.

"Fucking... Hell." Leon spoke as he pulled out the blade successfully and placed it aside.

He then placed one of the bead on the cut that the blade had left and the bead went inside the cut, instantly.

"Good." Leon spoke as he immediately pulled out one more blade from his body and planted another bead inside.

He then pulled out all the other blades and walked upto the front.

"I will be taking these from your hands and remember... don’t forget that if you tried to play some trick, your body will go boom in just a second." Leon spoke with a smile as he grabbed the bowl and collected the hovering soul stones into it.

"Dusk... Leave him once I get out of the house." Leon ordered as he looked at Dusk and started walking towards the exit door.

"As you command master." Dusk replied with a neutral expression.

"D-Don’t help h-her...." Orion spoke in a low voice.

"Hmm...?" Leon looked back with a confused expression.

"She is weak and too trusting. Her trust was the thing that got her entrapped by that Demonic Parasite.

Her trust was the reason why humans entered inside this forest and killed her. Join me... Leon and I will give you powers beyond you can think.

We will remake a better world... Where no one will fight and everyone will live in peace." Orion spoke with a serious expression.

"Ah... really ? How do you plan on doing that ? By killing every human ?" Leon asked with a neutral expression.

"This village is an example that I can make a world that lives in peace and harmony. I can make the humans right... They will forget everything about wars and murders.

They will-"

"Are you calling this village some kind of paradise for humans ?" Leon asked with a neutral expression as he walked upto him.

"No... But, I can make one if you support me. This village can be the foundation of a new beautiful world full of-" Before Orion could’ve completed his sentence, Leon placed his foot over his face.

"This is what it feels like living inside this village after knowing that you are the one controlling it.

I hope you are liking it." Leon spoke with a disgusted expression as he removed his foot from his face.

"Y-You will die one day and you will die like the other pathetic humans and you will regret not taking-" Before Orion could’ve completed his sentence, Leon exited through the main gate.

*Thud*

Dusk immediately went Invisible and turned off the gravity spell. Leaving Orion alone once again.
