Chapter 86 - Massacre V
[Contract has been sealed. Both parties are now connected through this divine contract. Entity -Atlas- and Entity -Olivia Raven- have no established a mind link. Since Entity -Olivia Raven- is a lower being than Entity -Atlas-, only she will experience backlash from the breaking of a rule within the contract, while entity -Atlas- would just cause the contract to become invalid]
'F*ck! You could have told me that before I made the contract! Damnit!'
"Your name is Atlas? And what does it mean by 'lower being'?" Olivia asked with a suspicious glare.
*sigh*
"First of all, no, my name is not Atlas, that is just what the beasts and other races call me. Secondly, since you are a mortal without a speck of divinity within you, it called you a lower being." I shrugged
"huh? HEY! Wait a second! Why the hell am I the mortal here? You're acting like you are all high and mighty as if you are god, but your a kid younger than even me!" She retorted.
"For someone who just watch their friends die by my hands and had gotten forced into a divine contract, you sure are lively." I turned my head with a cold stare making her frown while also coating her with a solemn atmosphere
"On a good not though, I buried them for you" I voiced with cheerful smile while throwing my arms out to the side in a dramatic fashion as if I was showing her the worlds newest computer rather than a tombstone above a grassless patch of land.
To my surprise, she did not wait another second to walk towards the tombstone, sine now she had both he hands and feet free. She swiftly wore the black long coat with a few blood stains that I had given to her. Thankfully, the dried blood stains weren't very visible due to the coat being black in color.
She knelt on the ground and looked at the tomb stone of every single one of them. Grabbing a handful of dirt, she started to mutter something with a few tear drops falling from her face with a few sobs leaving her mouth. At this scene, I did nothing but stare. Yes, at one point I felt a speck of guilt, but they had attacked me first and they wouldn't be dead if they hadn't attacked me. This is technically their fault. Their enraged status' did them no justice either though, and even with their 20% increase in all stats, it took away from their rationality which was the eventual cause of their death.
'At least I get to keep one. Maybe she will be useful in a few years? I kind of think we needed a maid in our house. Hopefully my father doesn't start doing anything wrong to her. I know he is a good person and all, but there is always a chance he would just choose to cheat on his wife, which at this moment of time is being really annoying in his perspective. I mean, not that I have nay experience but even I would think of cheating if I had a wife like that. I would owe her nothing since she didn't give birth to me, she wouldn't be bringing any of the money home and the most she is doing is taking care of the kids, which is really only needed when they are children. He does have another coming on the way though so the cheating theory is unlikely.'
Seeing that Olivia had refused to leave from her place during my whole monologue, I decided that it would be best if I leave her alone for a bit.
"Olivia, I'm going to go down to the village to get you some clothes. Do you want anything specific or should I just grab whatever?" I asked while walking towards the edge of the cliff.
"No, I'm coming with you. The least I can do is finish Brian and Ryan's dreams of destroying this crappy village." She replied with a monotone emotionless voice.
"Suit yourself. My dad is down there fighting some of your guys. If you see him, either call me using the mind link or run in the other direction. You won't be able to stop him even if your entire group's life was on the line." I retorted which made her furrow her brows.
"Aren't you underestimating me much?" She asked with an annoyed tone
"I'd be overestimating you if I said you had a chance. I'm just being honest here. It would be for both our benefits if you were to stay alive, and now that I see what you are thinking, I order you to stay here and look over the kids. Make sure no harm comes towards them, and if they do wake up and try to attack you, don't hurt them too much." I replied while getting read to jump
"What about the other guy?" She inquired while looking at his unconscious body.
"If he is a problem, just knock him out or scare the living sh*t out of him. He's a wuss so you shouldn't have much of a problem dealing with him." I finally waved before jumping and using explosions to propel myself forwards
*sigh*
"What did I get myself into" Olivia questioned her life choices while watching a child a whole foot shorter than her moving fast and at a latitude that she dreamed of. "To think she has such fine control over her fire affinity..."
....
In the air was me, floating, literally doing nothing but looking for a pair of nice undamaged shoes, good pants and a nice shirt for my new friend to wear. Yes, she might be my slave, but I will call her a friend since... You know... Don't want to go to prison for slavery.
Looking down toward the world of battle under me, I could just smell all the uncollected souls that will take a few hours to dissipate. This only made me smile more as even though I had lost two of my meals without proper reason, at least I get to have whole banquet instead now.
'My dad did a really good job taking the lives of these guys. I can already taste the soul energy!'
Raising both my hands above my head, I generated an extremely compressed plasm ball above my head which I exploded and used the explosion to descend myself in between two people battling.
*BOOM*
Launching myself downwards, I smashed into the ground, while also kicking a bunch of the pavement into the air and throwing the two who were fighting away for at least 20 meters.
*Bang* *Bang*
They both smashed into the walls of two different buildings and spat out a mouthful of blood. Watching this scene, I decided that it would be better if I were to just take them out of their misery. From their perspective however, a little girl that looked no older than 12 had just landed in front of them and the shockwave alone was able to push them to almost the brink of death.
'If I burn their corpses, no one will know that I killed them and all they will be is just a bunch of ashes. On the other hand though, I have barely any mana last, and using the rest of my mana on these guys would be straight up stupid... I should just stab them and or something'
Slowly, I walked toward the two while grabbing my light brigade from my storage and making it into two short swords. While one man was trying his best to escape while my back was to him, the other was looking me in the eyes with pure terror. He could see non of my facial feature since I had a mask on, but one thing the mask did not hide was the my eyes.
I was looking right into his soul, making his shiver to the core and make him immediately understand that his fate was to die here today.
*Slash*
Cutting his throat open, I did not bat an eye at his descending body that just so happens to be shooting blood like a fountain from his neck. Moving towards the other one, I saw that he wasn't where I left him, but instead, hidden behind one of the statues of a man with a top hat and a walking cane.
'Does he really think he can trick me by just hiding behind a statue?' I scrutinized
With blurring speeds, I appeared in front of the man who was hiding behind the statue. He was currently looking to the right, Probably hoping to hear the footsteps of me leaving the area. Unfortunately for him, I had no plans of leaving without a full course meal.
"HEY! THERE IS A KID THERE! SHE LOOKS LIEK SHE IS WORTH A FORTUNE!" shouted a man in the distance with a sliver of excitement leaving his throat and merging with his voice.
...
"Oh well, I guess I'll be conducting this massacre from now on.." I muttered with my lips curling up into an ear to ear smile.
