Chapter 172: Richard
The day was dark and the rain was falling hard as thunder struck in the distance. In this horrible weather a rather tall man in a large black cloak walked towards the town. The town's people who could see this man seemed to shiver from the cold as they saw him.
This wasn't from the cold however a dark killing intent was radiating in a massive radius around the man. As they noticed how close he was many of the men and women ran into their homes to take shelter.
The man however walked calmly with his ever slow pace towards the gates to the town. The guards at this gate where shuddering under the wake of his aura but kept to their job and halted him at the gates. This however didn't work as the man simply walked further towards the gate.
The guards upon the wall took this as a threat and so called forth their commander. They where confident that if their commander came out he could defeat everyone that was an enemy, they had once seen him defeat several bandit camps with a wave of his hand.
Before long the man with his slow pace had reached the giant town doors. At this same moment the doors opened to reveal an enormous man who seemed to brim with power. However even when confronted by this massive man the man in the black cloak didn't hesitate to walk forward once more.
This complete disregard of the commander made him and his men very angry as it showed he found them as less than nothing. The commander who was completely ignored then shouted "How dare you! You are under arrest for disturbing the peace!"
The man in the black cloak seemed to find this funny as a deep manly laughter rang out across the desolate town echoing grimly. This laughter didn't seem to be a mocking laughter though in fact it sounded to most people in the town like the laugh of death as it caused everyone who heard it to shrivel down into themselves as if bowing in fear.
The commander himself found that he was trembling in fear. This he couldn't understand as he was clearly far more powerful than everyone else. However after noticing that he was trembling he became completely angry, as if any one of his subordinates saw him tremble his reputation would be shattered.
This caused the commander to launch himself forward to take care of this attack on his reputation. As the commander launched forward his subordinates saw nothing except a blur of silver.
To their shock however they found that the commander was being held by his neck several feet off of the ground by the black cloaked man. The man's grip was so tight that the commander couldn't even beg for his life. However all of his subordinates could clearly feel the intense fear within his mind simply from his eyes.
Many of his subordinates began to recoil as they saw his expression slowly morphing from bright red to a light purple as his veins began to outline clearly on his skin. However with a quick twist of his hand the black cloaked man snapped his neck.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Not long later the black cloaked man could be seen surrounded with the brutally dismembered corpses of several thousand guards. If you looked closely you could see that every single one of these corpses where drained of their blood.
With the guards taken care of the black cloaked man once more spread out his divine sense and used a special technique. This technique was a powerful emotion and karma sending technique. The only emotion the man could feel however was fear so he simply focused on the karma factor of the technique.
To the unsurprised eyes of the man he could see that every single person within the town had a red colouring to their karmic aura, even the children. The man though seemingly disgusted simply sent out thousands upon thousands of strands of his soul power towards every single person within the town.
Though as he did this the man noticed one younger boy with a surprisingly bright aura coming towards him. The boy also seemed to radiate a slight excitement and joy. So the man simply didn't send a strand to the boy and executed every last person except himself and the boy within the town.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Before long the boy stood in front of the black cloaked man before bowing down and saying "Thank you sir!"
The black cloaked man then slowly removed his hood to reveal a rather handsome black hair and galaxy like eyes. This was Daedalus, he had been travelling for about two months now as an ordinary adventurer and had recently taken an S rank request to destroy this corrupted cannibal village. He had also taken the chance to cultivate the bloodline and body refining technique that he had decided to share with his masters so long ago.
With his hood down Daedalus asked the young man "Who are you?"
Daedalus was truly curious as this boy was clearly malnourished and radiated such a pure karma at all times. The boy replied without hesitation and with honesty "I was reincarnated by the god Hephaestus, I can tell you where to as you have the aura of a craftsman."
Daedalus was shocked by this but nodded honestly to which the boy started talking again and said "I recently reincarnated in this town, but they tried to feed me human flesh. So I didn't eat anything but vegetables and the occasional beasts I could hunt alone."
With that Daedalus could understand and said "Okay follow me we will get you fed in my home."
At that moment Daedalus decided it was probably time to tell his family about the fact of his reincarnation. The boy seemed to notice this and smiled before frowning and saying "Your name was Daedalus right? Well mine is Richard. Where you from Earth?"
Daedalus just smiled wryly and said "Yes, why is it that you are so curious?"
Richard then smiled brightly and said "You where a legend on earth!"
