……

‘Why did our roles suddenly become reversed?? Wasn’t he the one on the verge of commencing a suicidal mission not even a few seconds ago???’

‘And what was he talking about when he said that he would keep my power a secret? I don’t mind a bit of fame; that might even allow me to gain some more money,’ Azmond thought to himself with a slightly greedy look on his face.

It looked like he had found himself yet another addiction

…

“Hey, City Lord, you don’t need to hide my po-“

He tried to tell the weird old dude that he was fine with people knowing of his fame, but before he could

“Haha! No need to worry, youngster! I will keep this event a secret until the day I die! No need to fret over the matter any further!” Eldric interjected his words without even giving him the chance to refute them.

“…”

‘Why is everyone I meet such an eccentric character?? Can’t there be a single normal person around me?’

Azmond gave up on talking sense into the crazy old dude as he turned his attention toward the monsters rampaging throughout the city. He figured he should ‘clean up’ the rest of the stragglers before he checked out his System Interface.

So that is exactly what he did

WAAA!!

A dark crimson aura was unleashed with Azmond as the source, as he used one of the only skills that was close to approaching the second stage of ‘Mastered Comprehension’.

“!?” The City Lord instantly took his hand off the youth’s shoulder when he observed the extreme amount of energy being emitted from him.

‘What sort of technique is this? It looks to be almost as powerful as the one he used earlier. Although I’ve never heard or seen anything like either of these techniques, they must be from some top-level organization’s direct technique lineage, right?’

He thought over the matter while backing up a few thousand meters, waiting to see what exactly the youngster planned to do next.

RUMBLE!!

The building nearest to Azmond started to break apart, as the aura released from him was utterly devastating for the area surrounding him!

‘Is this youngster trying to destroy the rest of my city along with all the monsters??’

A slightly uncomfortable expression emerged on the old City Lord’s face, as he began to entertain the idea of asking him to maybe bring it down a notch

There were already hundreds of thousands of Eastern-styled crimson swords spinning around him. Did he really need to keep adding more and more of them like they were going out of style?

However, in spite of such thoughts, the sword’s only started to spin faster and faster and become even more numerous!

WAAA!

An even more menacing aura erupted from the fox-masked man as he reached an all-time high in terms of the potency of his Crimson Death’s.

“Hmm I will add a hundred thousand more and see how much damage I can do then.” His voice came out in a slightly amazed tone.

Even Azmond himself was a little taken aback by the sheer number of Crimson Deaths he could call upon. That amazement only grew when he recalled his maximum limit of around ten thousand of such swords a few days ago.

However, such thoughts were soon interrupted by the uncomfortable voice of a certain City Lord

“You surely mean ‘damage’ to the monsters, right? You wouldn’t be talking about my city, would you?”

Eldric became slightly anxious when he witnessed tens upon tens of thousands of crimson deaths swarm around the youngster’s body.

“…” Azmond ignored the weird old dude and refocused on his casting.

“P-Please go easy on my city…” The City Lord mumbled with a stressed tone.

WAAAA!!

The Crimson particles floating in the atmosphere seemed to grow even more active upon hearing the City Lord’s words!

“I won’t destroy your city, old dude. Just sit back and watch. That stunt earlier put quite the toll on your frail body; even a blind man could see that.” Azmond began with an acute observation.

“Did I make it that obvious?” Eldric asked, sweat falling down his face in massive amounts.

“Yes, anybody with two functioning eyes could see that. So why don’t you take a seat and calm your nerves a little?”

Despite him giving the City Lord an option, he had already used his Qi and pulled him down to a nearby watchtower.

Whoosh!

Thud!

The City Lord was blown onto the watchtower in a split second before immediately collapsing to the blue tiled tower with a fatigued countenance.

*Huff Huff*

Pants sounded out, as Eldric was on the verge of passing out from the stress that was formed due to him coming so close to burning his essence earlier.

“See what I told you, old dude? Just sit out for this one. I’ll keep the damage to your city at a minimum,” Azmond ‘reassured’ him with a small creepy smile.

He couldn’t help but become a little excited when so many exp and gold bags were presented in front of him, ready for the taking!

“… Well, alright” Eldric uttered with a crooked expression.

For some reason, he didn’t believe a single thing that this youngster ‘reassured’ him of

The number of Crimson Blades appeared to reach their absolute limit’s as there were already over one million of them swirling around Azmond!

“I think this should be enough to take out the rest of those stragglers,” he said before he let his hand down.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Sonic boom after sonic boom reverberated out as over a million swords cruised through the city of RiverBloom at speeds surpassing hundreds of times the speed of sound!

Crack! Crumble!

The blue cobblestoned roads and blue tiled houses started to crack and crumble away following the crimson trails produced by the Crimson Death’s!

“…” The City Lord seemed to lose a piece of his soul with every stone and brick that was uplifted post-release of the youngster’s unfamiliar technique.
