85 85 - Unknown Aura (1/2)

Leaving this thought of acting aside, Aatrox became serious and started thinking about the revenge he will take.

By now Robert must have returned to the Price family headquarters to tell the patriarch everything that had happened. Aatrox was careful to not show his strength so the Price family wouldn't judge him by common methods.

They could either underestimate him for being too young or overestimate him and spend too much money trying to protect themselves from him. Any of the alternatives they chose would be good for Aatrox since the first would make it easier for him to torture them and the second would make them torture themselves little by little.

Aatrox, who had begun to emit his killing intent, went and opened his closet. When they were buying clothes, Aatrox felt nothing special about any of the mortal clothes he saw, but there was one outfit that had caught his eye. In his old world, there was a murderer that he knew before the divine level who, before he died, said. ”I may die, but my image will always be remembered as a dazzling killer.”

When Aatrox heard this, he thought the man was just another madman and killed him mercilessly, but the man's outfit was saved in his mind. And the man was right, in various places in that country, several women remembered him for always being well dressed and leaving a rose for the wives of the victims he killed. On earth, when he went out to buy clothes with his family, Aatrox found a set of clothes that looked like what the man was wearing. When Amanda saw him looking at that set of clothes for a long time, without thinking twice, she took them and put them in their shopping basket.

The clothing consisted of a dark gray Victorian vest, wide black pants above brown boots. Above the vest came a black overcoat with a high collar reaching his ears and folded sleeves showing a pair of red leather gloves. To hide his face, a blood-red mask came out from under the vest all the way to his nose, leaving only the pair of eyes and long black hair in sight.

When Aatrox looked at himself in the mirror dressed like this, now that he had learned some things about earth, he could say with certainty that he was definitely gorgeous, but when he activated the Darkin eyes, the eyes that kept his whole eye black with red veins around them, reminding him of a certain Hyuuga clan of an anime he had seen. The graceful and elegant appearance he had was replaced by that of a demon who had just come out of hell.

Satisfied, Aatrox deactivated Darkin's eyes and prepared to leave. His parents and brother were already asleep, so he jumped out the window and with a slight jump, Aatrox reached the top of a building that was next to it. The strength he used to jump wasn't very great now that he had reached the Baron level, but if other people saw him there, they'd think some kind of superhero was in town.

After using a little energy, Aatrox took advantage of the night breeze to get back most of the energy he had spent jumping around and to observe the area from the rooftop. He didn't know what the Price family's situation was like now, so going prepared was better than getting there with 10% of his power missing.

Joshua Clarke, 23, studying Computer Engineering. That's me, every day I leave college at 10:00 p.m., take a bus and listen to music while I stick my head out the window, so I don't sleep and miss my stop. I do this regularly, I'm lucky that I catch this bus every night, so the driver already knows me, the last time I slept, he woke me up when we arrived at the terminal, and knowing that I had slept because I was tired, he would put me on another bus that was leaving without me paying anything.

Today I made that mistake and when I woke up, I was already at the bus terminal. The driver laughed and put me on another bus as usual after saying a few things about me sleeping too much.

When I was on the second bus, going home, I started to pay attention to things. Usually, you keep your face on your cell phone for so long that you stop paying attention to your surroundings. Only what I saw... it looked like I was watching a video on the cell phone screen.

The bus was at a speed of 35 miles per hour, and incredibly when I looked out the window, there was a man jumping over the buildings at the same speed. I rubbed my incredulous eyes wondering what it was, and yet I could see that man running over the buildings at the same speed as the bus.
