83 Chapter 83 (2/2)
Though i realized that here were also women amongst the group of twisted monsters but i has not the heart to call them that. Gone were their innate beauty.
And even the allure of softness vanished with how hard everything of theirs appeared to be. Such a waste indeed.
”Welcome to my humble dwelling, Esteemed Cultivator. What can i do you for?” Now he gets to talk sweet. What a delicious honey pot. I smiled at the man and continued my act.
”Did you not hear me earlier? I asked if you need help with that thing on your wrist. Did it malfunction? Perhaps you forgot to change the power source?”
Even as i uttered my piece, the man still kept tinkering the valued item on his person.
”What do you want?” the man clenched his teeth as he said these words to me.
”I want you to die. Can you do that for me? Boss.” i added the last word in an obvious tone of derision.
”Kill the damned cultivator!” and there goes my fun. My prey turned his back on me and flew out from the area in a blaze of crimson. A nimble mouse indeed.
I smiled and addressed the large men and women who rushed freely upon myself. They stood 10 feet tall but their size has not diminished their speed one bit. I guessed it even boosted it with how lengthy the strides they were taking.
”Do you know what i don't like the most?” i asked to no one in particular.
But even while i caressed the words in my mouth, time seemed to drastically slow down the big ants who invaded my comfort zone.
”TIK!”
”TOK!”

An inch later...
And everything went still.
Some were above me in a plan to crush me who laid static beneath their elevated forms. While others shadowed my entire body completely as all i could see were the bulging masses of flesh and muscles.
These fools really were dumb. I threw a question out and they ignored me. Guess i had to go on and answer my own query as usual.
”Ants who stood taller than me.”
”CREAK!” The breaking of bones was music of my ears. But even as the gooey muddle of more than twenty gorillas laid decapitated beneath my feet, an unseen force dragged their broken pieces afresh.
”A good trick. But that's all it is. A trick and nothing more.” i smiled at the pitiful creatures and flicked a finger in my wake.
”SOUL FLAME.”
”Be free.” these were my parting words and what followed was the roar of dragons.
”AHHHHHHHHHHHH!” Their voices so horrible to hear that there was a moment when i reconsidered on giving them another chance at life. But i shook my head and left without another word.
A broken thing can be recycled over and over again. It would appear perfect outside but deep within its core was a mess that i do not want myself looking at day in and day out.
Such was the fates of the weak and the luckless. A few breaths later 29 giants rested in one piece on the stony floors.
Their bodies were intact but inside them was a hollowed crater with their soul scorched to nothingness.
”This is a good ride. Where are you taking me, boss?”
