56 Massacre (1/2)
The Red Salamander gang were all armed with crudely sharpened ironwood swords and spears. They were crafted not too long ago.
The gang's loss drove them to find alternative means to bolster their strength and confidence.
”Dead men? You think you can take us all on, unarmed? Who you think you are!? The boss of the Golden Lion gang!?” Hudson was cocky to the extreme. He seem to believe that with his 2nd step strength and weapon, he could even put up a fight against someone stronger.
Leon couldn't be bothered to waste his breath on him. With a smirk, he waved his hand and a fire of wall formed itself around him to protect the little girl from harm. She had suffered enough.
Hudson had an ominous feeling when he saw the wall of fire appear and quickly turn tail to escape. Who was he kidding? Even the ex-boss and 20 core members didn't stand a chance against the boss of Golden Lion Gang. His ironwood sword was just a toy in front of Leon who could burn him from a distance.
[Extreme Vanishing Step]
BOOM* The ground cracked under immense pressure. Leon flashed through the wall of fire without harm and appeared right behind Hudson in an instant. Before he could turn around check, Leon's palm was already on the back of his head as his head was slammed into the ground with the full brunt of 500-jin force. His skull was crushed and his brain matter splattered. An instant kill.
Everything happened so fast, the other members weren't able to react until it was over. When they finally registered everything, they threw away their weapons and did their best to run in different directions. What they felt was... Fear! They were just ordinary people. They stood no chance when even their boss was killed instantly. What a monster!
”Everyone run!” They had to flee immediately or they will all die!
Kill the head and the mob would scatter!
They became easy pickings when they lost all intention to fight. However, Leon had no intention to let them escape.
They weren't allowed to run! They weren't allow to surrender either. Leon was like the grim reaper as he sentenced them all to death. He would definitely kill them.
None could outrun him. Like a spectre, only his shadow could be seen as he darted between them.
With each stop, a fountain of blood would spray, heads would roll and hearts pierced. He went for every fatal shot. His fiery hand was like the grim reaper's scythe, reaping lives with every swing.
Within a matter of minutes, the entire group was decimated and slaughtered down to the last man easily like chickens on a chopping board.
Leon could have burn them all to death quickly, but he wanted them to die by his own hands. Otherwise the rage burning inside him would not be abated.
Any normal person who could see the scene would retch and empty out their stomachs.
It was no doubt the stuff of nightmares. Leon thought the little girl would be traumatised if she saw such a scene as he hurried back. But it was too late. When the wall of fire disappeared, the girls eyes had already opened and took the scenery in when everything had gone quiet.
However the expected expression of horror was not seen on the little girl's face. It was calm and serene. So calm and serene it makes people's heart go cold if they knew that a child could watch such a gory scene so calmly.
”Everything is over. Are you not scared anymore?” Leon asked.
The little girl shook her head.
”Are you not afraid of me?” He was fully covered in blood.
The girl shook again. Leon felt pain in his heart. They say hardship and suffering could make a person mature faster. But he did not feel good when the one maturing was just a 5-6 year old little girl. She was so young but already forced to learn the cruelty of the world was for what it was, unforgiving.
Children her age should be innocent and naive. To be cheerful when happy and cry when sad.
”What's your name?”
”...Mia.”

”Do you know where your parents are? Big brother can take you to them.”
Mia nodded her head before but shaking them.
”The bad guys took many things from them before killing them.”
Leon drew in a deep breath to calm his turbulent emotions. He didn't doubt that the 'things' she was referring to was her parent's organs. She watched her own parents have their organs harvested and killed. How messed up was that?
His parents had been quite free after he told them to stop slaving away at their old work and he didn't have much time to accompany them anymore. Maybe they would adopt Mia and take care of her to pass their time? He wouldn't mind having a little sister.
”Do you have anywhere to go?”
Mia shook her head once more.
”Do you want to come along with big brother?”
”Can I?” She looked up at him with clear eyes.
Leon nodded. ”If you want to, you can.”
