Volume 5 Chapter 26

Volume 5 Chapter 26


 I left Divine Dragon King Elron to deal with my old man...

 and hurried towards the Demon Lord's domain.


 But....


 "......"

 'Piuu... it's burning...'


 Before my eyes lay a city engulfed in flames.

 The once beautiful streets of the Demon Lord's kingdom were now ablaze...


 "Ah... Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!!"


 I saw it.

 Chippy... broken and lifeless...


 "Chippy...!!!!"


 I rushed to her side instantly.

 But she was already gone.


 "Why... why..."


 I didn't understand.

 Who could do something so terrible?


 No, more importantly, I had to get everyone out... what should I do?

 What had happened?

 Why... why!?


 "You're too late, Zeke!!!!"


 ...What am I going to do now?

 This is bad.

 I couldn't think straight....


 "Hey, don't ignore me! Hey!"


 I had to use the Hand of God to heal her...!


 "Hey, don't ignore..."


 "Shut up."


 "Huh?"


 "Shut up...!!!!!!!"


 Flash—!

 BZZZAAAAAAAPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP!!!!


 "Uge-raaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!"


 A blinding light erupted from my right hand.

 It engulfed the city, and the entire country...


 The light eventually faded....


 "Ze, ke...?"


 "'Chippy!!!!'"


 Sia and I held the collapsed Chippy in our arms.

 I could hear her heartbeat... thump, thump...


 "Chippy! I'm so glad...! Thank goodness...!"


 "Zeke... I..."


 I thought Chippy was dead, and that she'd never wake up again.

 I was so scared... I couldn't help it.


 I won't let go anymore.


 "Chippy... I'm sorry... it must have hurt, huh...?"


 "No, I'm okay. Because I believed Zeke would fix everything."


 Chippy smiled shyly, and I couldn't help but pull her in for a tight hug.

 ...I'm so glad. I won't let her go ever again.


 "Hey! Zeke! It's that Makhen guy!"


 "...Makhen. Yeah."


 I stood up and turned around,

 looking down at the pest sprawled on the ground.


 "You."


 "Eep...!"


 Makhen's face turned pale with fear.

 I was boiling with rage.


 "For Chippy, for the people, for the beasts...."


 "How dare you put them through such hell...!!!!!!!"


 Fwoooosh!

 A surge of black light erupted from my hands.

 I couldn't forgive this... Absolutely not!


 "I'm going to kill you. So you can't come back ever again."


 "Ha, ha! That's rich coming from you, Zeke! I'm gonna turn you into a pile of bones this time...!!!!!!!"


 I swung my fist at Makhen's cheek.

 There was a solid impact, but it sent him flying without a hitch.


 "W-What... I'm wearing the strongest armor... How is this happening?!"


 "It's over for you."


 Whoosh...!

 BANG!


 "Gyaaaaaahhhhh!!!"


 I aimed my fist at Makhen's gut,

 and he flew backwards, bent like a bow.


 I rushed ahead....

 Forming a hammer with both hands, I swung down at the back of his head.


 BANG!

 Makhen hit the ground hard.


 "Ugh... w-why... I got stronger... I came back... whyyyy?"


 I approached Makhen, black light swirling in my hands.


 "What do you think life is...?"


 "Eep! Eeek!"


 Makhen, the idiot, freaked out and tried to flee.

 I couldn't let it go.


 "You only get one life. No one has the right to take it away for no reason... Why can't you understand such a simple truth?!!!"


 This was the umpteenth time I hoped he would change after I beat him up.

 But this guy never changed his ways.


 No way, this idiot is hopeless.


 He's just that kind of creature.

 He doesn't understand the value of life.

 His way of thinking is completely different from ours...vermin.


 "Just...die."


 "No...nooooooooooooooooo! Help meeeeeeeeeee!"


 Makhen screamed and cried.

 But I...felt no mercy whatsoever.

 I gathered black light in my hands....


 "Die."


 BOOM-BOOM-BOOM-BOOM-BOOM!!!

 A barrage of devastating blows rained down.


 Pouring every last ounce of killing intent into my fists,

 I obliterated Makhen's life with a single, final strike.
