"Heh… this guy, is quite capable!"
A strange light flashed in his eyes as Sora watched the man known as the captain kill one of his subordinates without hesitation, and he grinned wickedly.
Except for Martha, who was as carefree as Sora and watched with great interest, the other women all frowned slightly, looking at the captain who even killed his own companions, their eyes flashing with disgust.
"Now, is there anyone else who wants to escape?"
The man known as the captain scanned all of his subordinates with his blood-red eyes, asking with a bloodthirsty and cruel smile.
Silence, deathly silence. In the midst of endless fear, the mercenaries finally remembered that their captain was also a true demon!
"I want that Teigu, I want those women, I want that guy's head to exchange for a bounty."
"So, if you still want to leave here alive, go and help me get them."
Waving the long knife in his hand, shaking off the blood still clinging to it, the man looked up at the sky, saying with a look of intoxication.
From a street thug with nothing to his name to the leader of the entire mercenary group, the man deeply understood one thing – in this world, if you want anything, you have to take it!
Kill anyone who stands in your way, seize everything that originally belonged to them. This unparalleled feeling of possession and satisfaction made the man excited to the point of madness, no matter how many times he experienced it!
Even if the opponent is the strongest in the empire, so what? As long as he has what I want, I'll snatch it from him!
"Wh-what do we do?"
Someone had already broken down. On one side was the monster-like Death General, and on the other was the demon-like bloodthirsty leader. They couldn't afford to offend either side, and they didn't want to provoke either side. What were they, these small fries, supposed to do?!
"Let's do it! We have so many brothers, we can definitely kill that monster!"
Compared to Sora, these mercenaries were actually more afraid of their own leader. Plus, they also coveted Sora's woman and his head, so they quickly made a decision.
Since they couldn't escape, they would fight! These mercenaries were a bunch of guys who licked blood off of knives for a living. They would do anything for profit!
"Kill! Kill that guy!"
"Everyone, attack together! Don't let him run!"
"Take him down, everything he has will be ours! Charge!"
…
With someone leading the charge, everyone responded, shouting and rowing their boats towards the shore. These mercenaries still held onto a sliver of hope, thinking that with so many brothers, they could overwhelm the monster, right?
Of course, there were also some clever ones who took advantage of the chaos to jump into the river and slip away.
Watching these fools risking their lives for him, the man standing at the bow of the boat curled his lips into a cruel arc. Let them go and die first. Even if that monster is strong, so what? Once these fools have worn down his strength, then I'll…
It has to be said that the man's idea was absolutely correct. If there was any mistake, it was that he didn't understand the difference in power between himself and his enemy!
"Now!"
Just as the Tengu Gang's bunch of idiots were charging to their deaths, Babara's eyes flashed with a sharp light from the small boat behind. Without saying a word, she jumped straight into the river. Taeko, having received the signal, followed closely behind.
"Hehehe, farewell, handsome hunk!"
Chelsea, who had been waiting for this moment, was extremely excited! Winking her big eyes, she blew a kiss towards Sora in the distance. With a wave of her slender hand, several paintbrushes appeared in her hand. With a burst of energy, the cute girl disappeared, replaced by a gray giant owl (a danger beast species resembling an owl) flapping its wings.
"Did that guy notice me just now?"
While flapping her wings and fleeing quickly, Chelsea recalled the scene just now. That guy named Sora actually grinned and looked towards her.
Feeling a little embarrassed, she wondered if her casual action had really been seen by him. No, no, now is not the time to think about these things. She had to leave quickly, or it would be bad if she was discovered!
Shaking her little head, Chelsea quickly flapped her wings and disappeared into the night sky…
"Hehehe, naughty little brother, is that girl the new sister you're looking for? She seems very enthusiastic!"
Not caring about the approaching Tengu Gang members, Martha wrapped her jade arms around Sora's neck and said with a giggle.
"Ah, one of them. You'll definitely get along with her."
Patting the woman's delicate bottom to keep her still for a moment, Sora replied speechlessly.
Recalling Chelsea's cunning personality in the original story, and looking at the fairy woman in front of him who always liked to tease others, Sora thought they were definitely from the same mold!
"Hehehe, I'm really looking forward to it!"
"Do you need me to take care of these guys? My abilities are quite useful in the water."
Martha asked with a smile as she stood up from Sora's body.
"Well, this time, let me handle it myself. I won't feel good unless I personally wipe them out!"
Sora usually let his women practice on these trash, but this time the situation was a bit special, so Sora decided to take action himself.
Hearing Sora's words, a hint of surprise flashed in the eyes of both Martha and the Akame girls. It seemed that their naughty master was really angry this time. Knowing that the upcoming commotion might be huge, the girls exchanged glances and retreated to the side.
Seeing that the girls had retreated behind him, and estimating that Taeko and Babara in the water had almost escaped, Sora curled his lips into a bloodthirsty arc as he looked at the Tengu Gang members who were already close at hand. With a wave of his right hand, he materialized his King's Sword.
"To be honest, I really admire you!"
His gaze passed through one figure after another, landing on the man who was standing on the boat, the Tengu Gang leader, who was also smiling with a bloodthirsty and cruel expression. Sora muttered to himself.
In this person, Sora saw a trace of his own shadow. Whether it was himself or him, they would use any means to get what they wanted!
However, the difference between them was that he had absolute power, while the other did not!
Therefore, he could become the ruler of a world, and get anything he wanted, whether it was money, power, or women!
But he was destined to be a tragedy…
"Farewell, everyone!"
Raising his sword to the sky, the power within his body erupted, transforming into a giant sword shadow hundreds of meters high. Under the horrified expressions of the Tengu Gang members who were charging over, Sora slashed down with his sword!
Boom!!!
In the next moment, a shocking roar instantly traveled hundreds of miles away, and the entire earth trembled violently.
People, gone; boats, gone; gone, everything was gone…
Under this shocking sword strike, the entire river was split in two!!!
Like a giant flood, the water from the river surged onto both banks, devouring everything with unstoppable force.
At the same time, when Babara, Taeko, who had just climbed ashore in the distance, and Chelsea, who was flying in the air, heard the roar and turned their heads, they were completely stunned by the scene before them…
