Chapter 22 Things That Need to be Done (2/2)

The Burix has been causing various pains over these 5 years time. This act is quite fun…. Nah, boasting over such thing will only make me feel empty.

Hado is out on the table now. Can’t afford to miss it.

First of all, let’s get rid of the other obstructions.

As I decided to drop the act and grasped the black sword Greed, one the men was spouting more superiority non-sense.

[Hado-sama, let us folks take care this Mukuro. Against the likes of him, you don’t have to dirty your own hand.]

[Indeed, you are right. Do as you like!]

[Understood]

If that’s what you think, then I really want to see you try.

Taking full advantage of my stats, I approached the guy who spoke first. Then launched a left fist straight to his face.

The man was blown off back to the forest before he could say anything more.

Hado disregarded his astonishment, and attacked with the remaining 13 people.

All I used was my empty left hand. Never did I swung the black sword Greed on my right hand. Other than Hado, I had no particular grudge toward these soldiers, so I’d like to keep them alive.

However, if the hit didn’t incapacitate them, there is a chance that they will rise again and counterattack. Therefore, I used the martial art skill [Chun Jin]that could destroy internal organs――to break their bones. (TL Note: In case you forgot, Chun Jin is One-Inch Punch. Acquired on ch.18)

That one had his right arm crushed, while that other one had his left leg broken. And this fellow here broke his jaw…. Even though all of them were elite soldiers, they are nothing under the huge difference of stats. At this level, even I who had no real capability in hand to hand combat could easily suppress them.

I kept throwing [Chun Jin] here and there. Hado’s subordinates soon all sprawled on the ground, struggling in pain. The sword that was held high on their arm, now lying there uselessly.

Now, all who remained standing were only Hado and myself.

Speaking of Hado, he’s breathing hard with his mouth kept opened, like a fish out of the water.

When I approached him, he started to scold the subordinates to get back up and fight me again.

[What are you doing? Quick, get up and fight! Fight for the Holy Knight that is I!]

Urged by Hado, one of them actually managed to stand up.

But even so, once I put the black sword Greed just an inch away from his neck, his face became pale, and he immediately turned tail.

Apparently that guy did not have enough loyalty for the Burix. Running away to the forest and left his Hado-sama behind.

[Hey you! Don’t run away! I’m Hado of the Burix family!]

Shi~~n. There was no reply from the bloodied subordinate.

No matter how loud Hado shouted, that subordinate seemed to have escaped too far to hear it.

It’s so pitiful to see you being abandoned by your subordinates, Hado. Has the backlash from your lack of ambition kicked in?

[Damn you……are you making fun of me? I won’t forgive you, you lousy monster!]

Brandishing his golden sword, Hado came upon me. His power was the only thing worth praising.

However, his knees were trembling slightly. Whether it’s a fear that came by instinct, or was it just fluke, we’ll find out from the fight.

There were only two of us here, no other people present. That means, no more obstacle between us.

I slowly took off my hooded cape. The skull mask that had been concealing my face follow suit afterward.

The moment he saw my real face, Hado’s face distorted immensely.

[It can’t be……for garbage like you, to have that kind of power……tell me!]

Did not anticipated that it was me, Hado stepped back in surprise.

So I simply shortened our distance.

[I have no reason to tell you. Besides, I’d rather you answer my question.]

[Haa……what’s with that cocky attitude. Ha, if I don’t want to, what will you do?]

[If you answer, I will give you a quick death. But if you don’t, you’ll suffer until I got the answer out of you. That’s it.]

[Are you joking！ I am the second son of the Burix family――Hado, the Holy Knight. Garbage like you will not be able to do that!]

[Then let’s just prove it. Show it to me, that strength the holy knight is boasting about.]

I spun the black sword Greed around then turn it toward Hado, brandishing it confidently.

If I let you live longer, you’ll become a problem for Roxy anyways. So, after extracting all the information I needed, I’ll just kill him right here.

Surely Roxy will be sad if she knew what he’s up to.

But, I’ve already decided. That seed I have sown, I’ll take responsibility for it.
