Chapter 72: Who Are You? (2/2)
And just as he got inside, Arion locked the door as his expression became dark when he looked at the four puzzled boys in front of him.
”Rion...why the hell did you lock the door, and where is your friend?” Marcos asked with a dry smile though he felt that something was definitely wrong.
Arion gave a shifty smile, ”Oh, don't bother. I am your friend here. And now I am going to discipline you all as your friend.”
”Shit, you tricked us!” Marcos immediately realized what was going on upon seeing Arion's evil smile.
He could feel Arion's hostility towards him, but that made him even more confused, wondering when he offended this guy.
”From today on, you won't be laying a finger on anyone else. Now, which leg and arm do you want me to break? I will make sure that even if you have the money to hire a Healifier, they would have a hard time putting you back together, hehe,” Arion knew that Marcos and his friends were coming from ordinary backgrounds but were greedy enough to extort money from other poor kids.
”Ha, you don't scare me! We are four, and you are just one,” Marcos confidently said since he knew his Defity was superior to others of his age and background.
And seeing Arion's clothes, he felt that he was coming from an average household since he was sure he would never dare to offend someone stronger than him physically or background-wise.
So even if he couldn't remember who this Rion guy was, he was sure he was a weakling who got bullied by him some time ago.
Although Rion looked strong on the outside, it didn't mean his Defity was superior to his.
Marcos took out a knife from his belt and said in a tone of ridicule, ”You sure have guts to provoke me. Now you will be leaving your eye behind.” He then looked at his lackeys and said, ”Go pin him down.”
The three of them were not only a year younger than Marcos but also weaker than him, obviously, and Rion's figure had intimidated them. The only reason they didn't run was that Marcos was among them.
Still, they couldn't refuse his words and rushed at Rion with apprehensive expressions.
Arion only snorted and felt like three babies were trying to fight him. He casually moved his hand to grab the arm of a boy and then effortlessly lifted him up like a doormat and then slammed him onto the two other boys.
”What the hell…” Marcos had his eyes almost pop out upon seeing an unbelievable sight. And even Arion was surprised that his strength had increased so much. Then he realized that he never really had the chance to test his newfound strength.
'The 10th Cycle surely is awesome....'Arion inwardly thought and couldn't help but wonder how much stronger he could become if he got into the 11th Cycle of the Prana Binding Stage.
He already knew that each cycle would give more benefits compared to the previous cycle. So obviously, the potential benefits of the 11th Cycle would surely outweigh the 10th.
However, right now, his focus landed on Marcos again and then approached him slowly, feeling that he still had to vent this intense rage he was feeling inside him.
”Who are you?” Marcos asked as beads of sweat slid down his temples.
Arion laughed, ”Haha, you don't remember me? Don't you remember beating up a helpless boy who never even tried to bother you in any way but, in fact, tried to avoid you the best you could?”
Marcos stumbled back as his burrows furrowed since there were many kids he bullied.
”Don't you remember breaking that boy's legs and fracturing his frail arms every time he visited this place?” Arion continued as his tone became incessantly darker.
”Don't you remember you and your friends pissing on him and then cleaning him up with a water hose to not make anything look suspicious while feeling confident of his timid nature to not tell anyone anything?”
Marcos gulped again as he slowly stepped back, but then he couldn't narrow down who this guy was since he still did these things to multiple boys.
Arion maintained his intense, unblinking stare as his expression continued to become icier, ”Do you feel good bullying others? Does that make you feel big? Then guess what...today I am going to make you feel so small that you will feel that your existence is no more significant than a worm.”
