231 Danger Zones (2/2)

Raven smiled. He looked at every single one of them and inwardly praised the slight breeze of their auras.

Without a doubt, their auras might deter some of those who had a weaker heart. But to him, this is not even a suppression, more like a light breeze that makes him comfortable and somewhat enthusiastic. So much so that he began speaking.

”I revealed the ploy of the Mort Family's crimes. On my way there, I believe everyone saw my kill at least 100 people who are either Veterans or Knights. I held all of them back on my own until back up arrived. I am at the Warrior Stage at that point.”

*Boom!*

The combined auras and killing intent that the stationed guards exuding was overwhelmed by Raven's own aura. Everyone who was exposed to his aura had their eyes constricting as they unknowingly summoned their weapons and resist the rising pressure coming off of Raven's body. The captain of the guards, who's receiving the full burnt of his pressure was sweating coldly and his instincts were screaming danger and urging him to run away.

Unfortunately, Raven's just starting.

*Boom!*

This time, a suffocating black aura rose from Raven's body. Majority of the guards were already on their knees, forget about mustering courage to stand up, they can't even breathe properly in his presence.

”Just recently, I also slaughtered 300 strong invaders from the Black Curtain Guild. Every single one of them could stand toe to toe towards the likes of you, yet everyone died under the weight of my hammer. I faced them alone and none of them even managed to touch the hem of my clothes. I was at the peak of Warrior Realm that time.”

*Boom!*

Raven didn't hold back anymore and his released all the aura and killing intent he was hiding. His suffocating pressure almost made the guards lose control of their bladder functions. Every single one of them was trembling, even the guard captain who was standing tall and proud one moment ago was on his knees, breathing heavily under the mighty aura that Raven exudes. He tried mustering up his strength to at least remain standing but he couldn't.

Raven was the only one standing, he didn't even made any movements at all. He just released his aura and everybody was on their knees. His cold gaze looked down to every single one of them as he continued saying:

”I just recently broke through and stepped into the Veteran Realm. I'm fifteen years old. From your words earlier, am I safe to assume that the likes of you are challenging me?”

An enormous hammer appeared in Raven's hand. He swung it to his shoulders and looked intently at every single one of the guards here.

No one could say a thing. Not even the guard captain for that matter. He was somewhat regretting his blunder earlier. The captain was aware of Raven's legends, those who hadn't heard of them are living under a rock at this point. Even so, he never really witnessed just how Raven was able to achieve all of that, inwardly a part of him denies these claims but now, he was thoroughly convinced.

Raven walked past all of them, still radiating with that suffocating pressure. He took a couple of steps forward under the watchful gazes of the crowd. Once he reached a certain spot, he raised his hammer using one hand and swung it down.

*Boom!*

A mighty pillar which took a shape of a close fist descended not too far from where he was standing. The rest heard a squelching sound and when they looked over, they saw some flattened flesh and bones.

”Hmph!” A snort rolled off from Raven's mouth, ”Curiosity kills, little worms. Do remember that on your next life.”

Raven then walked forward and left the place, disappearing into the haunted woods of the 100 Demon Slaughterhouse.

Seeing his capabilities in person, the guard captain came into the conclusion that…

He will not last a single swing from this person. He couldn't and none of his subordinates could. He was very certain of that.
