Chương 63: Back Home
After a while, I finally started to walk away from the tribe and towards the outside area of the forest, where there was nothing but animals and really weak beasts.
Walking on air, I got to the final region of the forest, where most roads and humans would be. Right at the moment I had gotten out of the forest's exit, I saw a few humans walking down the street bloodied and half naked. Holes and tears could be seen all over their bodies while dry blood covered almost every visible inch of their skin.
They all looked me right in the eyes like hungry wolves, but the moment they got a good look at me, a look of terror shot within their eyes before they finally decided to step back at the speed of a slow snail. They had no energy to fight, but they had the will to live, and in this kind of situation, that was all that really mattered.
I did not know exactly why they would step back, but looking at their clothing, their appearance and their aura, I could guess why they had stepped back. According to some of the humans, there were some reports about a little girl with golden hair and a pitch-black mask that had golden cracks covering it. There was a whole squad sent to eliminate the little girl they called 'Uladian's Reaper'.
Of course, mercenaries like these would automatically connect the dots when seeing me, especially because I was wearing the mask when I left the forest.
"P-please! Spare us! We mean no harm!" Said the man in the lead, while the rest started to nod in affirmation. From their soul flame alone, I knew they were scared sh*tless. Most normal humans and mercenaries simply had no chance against me, while only those who could summon Lord tier spells and above had a chance against me, which was almost nobody in the town I lived in.
"Yeah, sure" I said before walking off, just to halt my steps again as if I had forgotten something.
When I had said 'yeah', their faces contorted in a confused manner before turning slightly relieved.
"Do you guys have any dimensional amulets?" I asked looking at their soul flames rather than their faces, to see if they are lying or not.
The moment they had heard this question, they had turned extremely tense, not wanting to give away all their hard earned money and goods.
"...Don't worry, I don't want any of your crap, I just want the amulets themselves." I continued, making them relax a little more. They swiftly took out all the things they had before handing me all their amulets. I had a confused look on my face seeing this, but instead of taking all the amulets like they had expected me to do, I simply took the bracelet looking one, which had the highest storage space, before walking in the other direction.
They continued to hold their breath until I was out of sight, before letting out one of the biggest and most grateful sighs of relief.
40 minutes later, I stood in front of a gate that encompassed two houses, both being at least 3 stories tall. Looking at the house, I let out a small sigh just to take a small step forwards, towards the gate of the fence.
Outside on the front yard stood two kids, one the same age as Zarch and Zach while the other was a little younger than his brother. Seeing me walking through the front gates after not seeing me for such a long time, they decided to walk in my direction with a smug look across both of their faces. This is the same look they usually had when they wanted me to "play" with them.
'Well, a little burn should be fine right?' I thought before extending my right hand and opened my palm upwards. They both looked at my hand questionably, but did not stop moving forwards, which was probably their biggest mistake.
Suddenly, out of my hands, a huge burst of blue flames erupted from my hand, creating a loud bang while sending shockwaves that across the whole area.
"WHAT DID I TELL YOU ABOUT USING MAGIC IN THE F-" shouted a voice from within the house that both of the kids in front of me lived in. They were both pale white and had already failed on the floor and slid a few meters away before they even knew what had hit them.
Out of their home ran out a man with what seemed to be his wife behind him, carrying a stick in a very aggressive manner. They saw a little girl, Barely 4ft 10 looking down at their two children as if they were ants. The impure divine energy emanating from the body of this little girl could make a beast drop to it's knees, nevertheless a single human. She did not seem powerful, to be honest, she seemed really weak and fragile, but to the man and women who had walked out o the house, they felt immediate danger from not only the huge blue flame, but also the body of the child itself.
"Ww-w-w-What the hell are y-you!?" Asked the man finally, after a few second of staring at me.
Completely ignoring him, I looked towards the two under me with my upper lip curved up in disgust. Extinguishing the huge flame on my right hand, I slammed a single foot down on the older one's chest with just enough power to hurt him, but not enough to bruise him.
"Know...Your...F*cking...Place" I said, looking straight into his eyes with my shut eyes, which seemed to him more like I was looking directly into his soul, which I was actually not doing. Every word carried a little bit of my impure Divine mana in it, to both make my voice stronger and louder, while also getting my words engraved into his very soul.
One of the few things I had done in the last 5 weeks was create a very simple breathing technique that would allow a tiny bit of my impure Divine mana to seep from within my mana heart. The divine Element itself comes directly from the soul, but in this kind of situation where I do not need to make my divine will into divine mana, I simply need to use the small amount of mana within my Mana heart and circulate it around my body.
I had not learnt how to circulate it around specific areas within the body, but one thing I knew how to do is circulate all around my body without any discrimination. The affect of the circulation would last about a minute which in most situations is about enough. The circulation would then allow me to amplify my body and make me much stronger, while also strengthening other aspects like my voice, natural invisible aura or even all my senses.
My natural divine aura around my body can supress anyone 10 times weaker than me, while when using my Divine circulation, it would be people that are 3 times weaker than me, whether it is human, monster of beast.
Looking at the older brother's eyes with my shut eyes, he started to shiver uncontrollably, wanting to get away but too scared to move a single inch. He could feel the gaze he was getting from me even though my eyes were closed, and out of everything, that was the thing that scared him the most.
The human species' deepest fear; The fear of the unknown!
The moment before both parents could start shouting at me with their built up courage, my foot had left the surface of the boy's chest and touched the floor once again. In that same instant, I looked towards my family's house just to start walking towards it without looking back for a single moment.
eventually I reached to the door, just to realise that there was someone already behind it getting ready to open the door before I could even knock. My hand sped up a little allowing me to knock on the door before the person on the other side can open it. The moment the door opened, A bearded Dirty blonde haired man with the sides shaven and the top shining in a light silver.
"Pandora?" asked the man who was my father with visible dumbstruck within his eyes, with barely enough time between the time he opened his mouth and the moment he finished to prepare for the tackle hug I was about to give him.
"Didn't you say that you were going to come tomorrow?" Question my father while not letting go of the hug
"Well, do you not want me here? I can go back" I teased at his aloofness when it dawned at him that he might have been rude, not that I minded.
"I really missed most of you" I continued after the long hug had come to an end.
