Chapter 247

"I will search for him from above... You two search on the ground and try not to get killed.

I don’t want to see anymore deaths tonight." Kiren spoke with a neutral expression as she looked at Rees and Dusk.

*Swish*

She then immediately took off and started flying towards the tree of life.

’How can a human like him infinite mana and such high amount of knowledge ?’ Kiren thought with a confused expression as she continued to fly forward.

"Rees... Get over me and grab my fur tightly. I will be moving really fast." Dusk spoke with a serious expression.

"O-Okay..." Rees replied as he immediately climbed over Dusk’s back.

"Thunder Steps..." Dusk spoke as he immediately turned into a blue streak of light and ran straight into the forest.

Village’s southern boundary,

*Huff-Huff*

A silent huffing sound came from behind the bushes as a blood covered leg stepped out.

Slowly his full body came into view and this guy was none other than Orion himself.

He was completely covered in blood from head to toes and there is a very angry expression on his face.

"This is my village and I am the only one who will rule it." Orion spoke as he immediately stepped inside the village and started walking towards his house.

As he walked towards his house, all the villagers stared at him through their windows in fear and no one dared to step out.

Suddenly, Orion noticed a woman peeking at him through her window with a scared expression on her face.

"I AM YOUR FUCKING GOD... I AM THE REASON YOU ALL ARE LIVING YOU FUCKING DOGS. YOU SHOULD FEAR ME JUST LIKE THAT." Orion shouted with an angry expression as he looked at her.

The woman immediately closed the curtains and hided under her bed in fear.

"I am the god... I am the one who rules these humans and I shall not-" Orion stepped into his house and immediately stopped speaking as his eyes landed on the woman lying on his bed.

"Oh my..." Orion spoke with a smile as he immediately walked upto Medina and his smile grew even wider.

"Hahahaha... Looks like gods are on my side tonight. They also want me to win. I will take good care of you, Sister." He spoke as he slowly placed his hand around Medina’s neck.

Kiren is flying above the forest and she is trying to find Leon but more than half of the forest is now covered in black vines... And she can’t see anything properly.

"This parasite is spreading really fast.... I have to find that human or it will become even stronger." Kiren spoke with a serious expression as she finally reached near the tree of life.

*Booom*

Suddenly, a loud explosion happened near the tree.

"What the- !?" Kiren spoke with a confused expression as she immediately increased her speed and arrived near the tree of life.

*Swish*

As she looked down, she noticed that Dusk and Rees are also standing on the side and Leon was standing in front of the tree.

"What is he doing ? Why is he raising his hands like that ?" Kiren asked with a confused expression as she continued to observe.

*Swish*

Suddenly, two black vines started flying towards Leon.

"Oh no..." Kiren spoke with a serious expression as she immediately started diving down towards him with full speed.

"I have to save Mr. Leon... I will-" Rees started speaking but Dusk interrupted him immediately.

"Don’t do anything... Rees. Master... Is different." Dusk spoke with a serious expression as his fur started to get up and his expressions turned serious.

"What do you me-" Rees observed carefully and noticed that Leon was smiling and his eyes are shining brightly blue.

"LAST RISE-FINAL FORM : FORMLESS AURA SWORD." Leon spoke with a smile as he disappeared from his position.

"What the- !?" Dusk, Rees and Kiren spoke at the same time as they saw his form disappearing.

*SWISH*

In just a second, Leon appeared on the other side of the tree.

*Crack*

"Oh my god." Rees spoke in a serious tone as he noticed the cut on the middle of the trunk.

*Crack-Crack-Crack-Crack*

Loud cracking sounds started coming from the tree’s truck as it started sliding away from it’s lower part.

"No... Way." Kiren spoke with a shocked and surprised expression as she witnessed the tree of life falling down.

*THUD*

With a loud thudding sound, the tree of life crashed against the ground and the demonic parasite got completed annihilated with it.

"Everything has a weak point... The parasite was using the tree as it’s main life force sucking source.

So, I just removed it’s source. My work here is done, kid. You can take over your body but don’t forget our deal." The old man spoke as he immediately returned the control back to Leon.

His blue shining eyes returned back to crimson red and Leon gained back the control of his body.

"What the fuck-!?" Leon spoke as he immediately rubbed his eyes and noticed that he was out of the soul realm.

"Master..." Dusk’s voice came from the left side as he and Rees immediately ran upto him.

"Dusk... Rees." Leon spoke with a smile as he looked at them.

"Master... That was amazing." Dusk spoke with an impressed expression.

"Yes, Mr. Leon... When did you grow so strong ?" Rees spoke as he looked at Leon.

"What ?" Leon asked with a confused expression as he couldn’t understand what Rees was talking about.

"No, No, No... This is not possible." Suddenly, Kiren’s voice came from behind.

"Hmm...?" Leon immediately turned around and noticed that the tree of life is lying down on the ground.

"Holy fucking... Shit. Who did that ?" Leon asked with a shocked expression.

"Umm.... You did, Mr. Leon." Rees replied in a neutral tone.

"WHAT !?" Leon asked in a loud voice as he looked at Rees.

"Yes Master... You were standing there just a second ago without any weapons and then you were standing here, you chopped that tree down bare handedly, Master." Dusk replied with a smile.

"He is right, Mr. Leon." Rees replied.

’What the fuck have you done, Old man ?’ Leon thought with a serious expression as he looked at the tree.

"Who the hell are you ? Are you even a Human ?" Kiren asked with an angry expression as she immediately stood up and walked upto him.

"H-Hey... Calm down. That parasite died with it, right ? That’s good."Leon replied as he tried to maintain a neutral expression.

"I don’t think you have any idea... That tree was important to us fairies. It gave us powers to protect this forest and collected life force for us to live.

It gave life to this whole forest and all the monsters living inside it." Kiren spoke with an angry expression as she looked at Leon.

"Umm... I don’t want to talk in this topic, but Mr. Leon destroyed a demonic parasite that had you all prisoners.

Your mother was planning to make you the next fairy mother and self-destruct the tree with her, to get rid of that parasite.

So, I think you should be thankful to Mr. Leon." Rees replied in a neutral tone.

"He is right..." Leon replied with a serious expression.

"Oh my god... Mother, we have to get back to mother immediately. The tree is destroyed... This is not good for her." Kiren spoke with a serious expression as the realisation hit her.

*Swish*

She immediately spreaded her wings and flew towards the village with full speed.

"Master... I am sorry, I was unable to save you from those fairies." Dusk spoke as he immediately bowed down to Leon and apologized.

"Don’t worry about it Dusk. I am too weak and I neet to get strong... Really strong. For now... Take us back to the village." Leon spoke with a serious expression as he jumped over Dusk’s back.

Rees also sat behind him and Dusk started moving towards the village immediately.

In just a few minutes, all three of them reached the village.

Dusk walked upto Orion’s house and noticed that the main door was closed.

"Why is the door closed ?" Leon asked with a confused expression as he jumped from from his back.

"I don’t know master... I don’t remember anyone closed the door when we left." Dusk replied with a neutral expression.

Leon immediately walked upto the door and tried to open it.

*Click*

... But it was locked.

"It’s locked... Kiren, are you inside ?" Leon asked as he knocked on the door.

*Knock-Knock*

"Kir-" Before he could’ve knocked again, he noticed blood coming out from under the door.

"Okay..." Leon spoke with a serious expression as he immediately looked at Rees and pointed towards the blood.

"Please step aside... Mr. Leon." Rees spoke and without wasting another second, he raised his hand used a spell.

*Click*

The gate opened up immediately and Leon entered inside the house.

But as soon as he entered inside, he saw something that shocked him to the core.
