Chapter 125: Return (1/2)

”I am sorry Stella; I should have done this sooner.”

Sam muttered in his sleep as tears streamed down his closed eyes. When he felt something rubbing on his chest, he was dragged out of his dream.

Sam groggily woke up. When he looked at the surroundings, he saw all the blood, gore and the massacre he created.

He was out for more than three hours.

When he moved around, he could feel the soft fur of the ape and the ape's arm resting on his chest as if trying to console him. It is as if it could feel the sad emotions of Sam and was consoling him.

Even Yanwu and Sky are rubbing their heads to him.

Sam quickly took cleared the tear stained face. No matter how much fragile he was, he would never let the world know about it, there are only a select few that can see him in that state and except for these three beasts, nobody in this world is qualified yet.

Sam stood up. His injuries are already scabbed and his spiritual energy is pretty much restored.

He healed himself as he simultaneously looked at the grounds. His teammates are standing a bit faraway waiting for him.

When they saw that he was okay and stood up, their mood also brightened. When Sam fell unconscious, they wanted to check on him, but the three beasts didn't let them come near him.

Particularly, the ape is being very protective, even hugging Sam and giving them aggressive looks.

Actually, the ape really grew closer to Sam after watching him exert himself to that extent when activating the blood line.

He is the only one who saw how much stress Sam has endured and even though he recovered physically, his mental state is still a bit sensitive.

That is why, if the teammates really did come and check on him when he is injured, due to his long battle and killing spree, Sam might have attacked instinctively.

If not for the close feeling and familiar presence of his beasts, which he would trust unconditionally, he would have attacked them also.

After a moment, Sam looked at the two swords that are placed near his feet, he picked them up and after examining for a bit, stored them away, he has other plans for them.

His wounds are completely gone, but the scars are still there. His whole naked upper body was covered in scars.

It is not because, he can't heal them, but rather Sam didn't like healing his scars. Even in his previous life, when the medical technology can remove the scars, he still kept them. Because, every scar is a reminder to him and it is a lesson from the past.

Even if one person doesn't like the past, they should still treasure the lessons it taught them.

So, with that point in mind, he never removed his scars and he is not going to remove them now.

He slowly walked towards the exit, right now he doesn't want to talk. He even left the remaining corpses and his staff ton which the Count was tied just like that.

He deliberately left the staff in this place and also left the corpses like that.

This place shall be the grave-yard and the staff should be the symbol of this grave-yard he is going leave as reminders.

Even though, he knew that the people who learnt of this might erase the thoughts, Sam should think of ways to avoid even greater danger.

At the peak of the society, the people who make the rules of the society but are not bound by them in normal circumstances, will now have Sam under their radars.

Being at the top of the pyramid, they didn't want their positions to be shaken and they want to supress the people who are capable of that.

Now, they will start to examine whether Sam has that much potential and ambition to do that.

But Sam do have his plans. All he has to do is make his name known all over the nation and he was sure he can use that and play off of that. And how he can do it… is story for another day.

Right now, Sam wants to have some peaceful time, so after moving his stiff body a bit, he took his Harbinger and prepared to move.

”Boss.��

Just before he could do so, Watt ran up to him and helped him wear his feather coat. Sam just gave him a faint smile and immediately moved; the three beasts immediately followed.

After a while, Sam noticed that there are no people on the streets and even the beach was empty. He landed on the beach and kept the Harbinger away, before he laid down on the sand.

He looked at the clear sky as he tried to empty his mind. He finally felt some peace.

But the rest of the city are not at peace and that includes Sam's teammates.

Watt being a good subordinate, immediately went to all the dead bodies and collected the spatial rings and weapons.

When he took away the ring from the corpse of the Count and examined it, he was quite baffled.

Because, he saw something familiar inside the ring, then he immediately called Jack over and showed him.
