Chapter 36 (1/2)

”WHO ARE YOU?”

Marcus boomed at the 3 culprits in front of him. The other one was still rooted deep into the ground. His breath had stopped ages ago.

The Trio trembled before Marcus. What they thought was going to be easy as fuck!, was actually a boss level set on ultra hardcore level.

”Ah, so you won't speak?”

Marcus stepped towards the man and raised his leg slowly as if wanting the man before him to watch his actions.

He brought it down with a boom and broke the man's leg into two. The lower part flew up into the sky. Blood spewed out like water from a fountain. Marcus grabbed a rock beside him and kicked it into the wound. The loud scream of the man was followed by his voice crack. The Blood stopped oozing.

”Well that worked”

Marcus smiled innocently at them. His eyes were closed. His calm turquoise green pupils returned once he opened them.

”If you want to live, then tell me now, who are you guys, why are you here and mainly....Who sent you?”

It was still silence from the trio. Marcus stretched neck, He felt good when it cracked a bit.

”So....You've Chosen Death!?”

Marcus said as he raised his right hand into the air, it was not his Galactic palm or fist but was his normal punch which packed the power to explode a whole country.

(It's only a country now because of the power reduction due to The Flame Emperor's gifts.)

Just as he was about to land his strike, the lady who was the sniper shouted out.

”We are truly sorry, please don't kill us”

Marcus pulled back his punch and nodded. He bolted into his house and came back with a wooden chair within a split second.

”You have two minutes”

He spoke as he sat on the chair slowly but leaned his torso outwards, towards the intruders.

”We...We are the Quadra Hydra”

”Hm!! Go on”

The lady gulped and continued. Her fellow assassins shook their head in disgust and fear.

”We are renowned assassins and used to be the member of the Mercenary Guild”

”We got a contract from an unknown source at our secret base. It was a letter and the payment of 2000 gold coins were already beside it.”

”What did the letter say?”

Marcus asked, his hands on his chin and his face was twisted in a surprised and curious expression.

The Sniper lady hesitated for a second. She looked at her injured mates beside her. They both were looking at her, pleading her not to say anymore. Even though pain got better of them.

It was a strict rule of their assassin crew, Not to leak anything about the contract, unless or until they were successful in finishing off their target.

The Terrified lady had no other choice but speak. The person in front of her was not a... human.....in any way!. He was a monster, No The God of Monsters.

”Well thank you”

Marcus smiled.

Telepathic reading was a perk of the Emperor's seed. Using this skill had helped in determining true and honest court members in his palace during his rule.

The Lady gasped. There was no way she could hide anything from the beast in front of her.

”Now that you know you can't hide anything...”

Marcus said with an innocent smile on his face.

”Why don't you just spill the beans already”
