BXBX NOVEL Chapter 51 - Thrashing
Hicka as well looked up and stared at Kadyn and said with his mournful voice. "Bro-brother Kadyn, please, save me." He tried to stand up but failed and fell again and continued twitching on the ground.
"Sorry, brother, but I have to sacrifice you," Kadyn said and placed his hands behind his back. He turned towards the group of people that wanted to tear him apart piece by piece and smiled jubilantly and said. "Go ahead, kill him. Though I would feel great pain, some things one ought to do if he wants to shatter the limit of the cocoon and become a butterfly." His voice was filled with righteousness. But when people spotted that wretched smile on his face, their hearts trembled.
"Cocoon? Butterfly? My ass!" Association Leader cursed. "You knew everything, didn\'t you?"
"Oh," Kadyn looked at the man and asked with an I-am-clueless expression. "I don\'t know what you are talking about? Please, elaborate."
"You knew that Hicka was working for us!" Association Leader pointed at Kadyn and roared.
Everyone peered at Kadyn\'s smiling face and understood the entire situation. Hicka was a viper in the hide of a friend, so that\'s why he refused to bow down previously in front of his enemies for his so-called friend.
"How?" Hicka said and climbed up from the ground, glancing at Kadyn confusedly, his wounds healing rapidly. "I don\'t think I\'ve ever made a mistake. Even in the Association, only three people knew about my secret. Then how is it possible for you to know this?!"
Fenon and other\'s sprang in fright spotting Hicka\'s terrible wounds healing with visible eyes. Even Kadyn\'s Soothing Drop was nothing in front of this speed. In no time his wounds patched as if they were never there. Fenon knew how terrible his wounds were, however they vanished in a blink.
"Potioneer Yel\'s skills are really praiseworthy," Kadyn said. "Healing your wounds almost instantly. If I\'m not wrong, this should be the Rank 1 healing potion you have just used."
"Yo-you…" Hicka pointed at Kadyn and wanted to retort him but he felt as if a lump had stuck in his throat—he could not find any word to refuse Kadyn\'s words. Then he screamed. "How\'d you know all this?!"
"Why are you still asking him like a dunce," the skeleton elder snorted, his voice still filled with confidence. "We just need to interrogate him. I\'ve had enough of this drama. On your knees, brat!"
As he said a terrible pressure engulfed the entire hall, turning everyone pale with fright. However his main target Kadyn was still standing in the same place and with the same disdainful smirk on his face. The old man realised that his pressure wasn\'t doing anything to Kadyn, he unleashed his entire power, trying to get Kadyn on his knees but to no avail. "What, how could this be?!" he screamed, not believing his own eyes. Kadyn was just a puny Elementary Mage. How could he hold against his pressure?
"Because you\'re standing in front of me, moron," Kadyn lunged at him. The old man didn\'t move from his place and just eyed Kadyn disdainfully, as Kadyn reached around five meters from him, he tried to catch him by his throat. However, to his horror, he realised that he could not move! Before he could understand anything, a slap reverberated throughout the hall.
The elder had been smashed over ten meters away, red palm print had been etched on the right side of his face, drops of blood trickled from the corner of his lip; eyes wide, almost bulging out of their sockets. His body trembled in humiliation and fury and indignance.
The hissing and gasping reflected in the entire hall, Elder Yel and the Association Leader stared with a dumbfounded look, disbelief written all over their faces. That old man was an elder of the Magic Association—Headquarter—Rank 2 magus. How could a brat like Kadyn defeat him? That makes no sense at all!
"Slap!"
"Slap!"
Just as they were trying to process the situation, both of them felt a burning sensation on their faces, smashing them into the ground. The duo screeched and yelled and landed over ten meters away, among the audience.
"I\'ll slaughter you, boy!" the elder yelled. However when he tried to cast a spell, his face paled. He could no longer feel his sea of consciousness. "This-this…"
"What, you want to cast a spell?" Kadyn mocked. "Go ahead, I\'m waiting. Hit me, come on, hit me."
Everyone\'s expression turned weird, hearing Kadyn\'s words. Why do his words feel so vulgar?
The old man clenched his teeth until blood rolled out of his mouth. He tried again and again and again but to no avail, failing miserably every time. Now fear started to grip his heart—he could not feel his sea of consciousness as if it never existed. What kind of power would someone need to do something like this? Rank 3? No, not even Rank 3 or even Rank 4 would be able to do something this insane!
"Bang!"
"Ahh!"
Kadyn gave no time to the so-called Elder of the Magic Association, and his kick landed on his abdomen, a mournful shriek that escaped from his mouth, sent a chill in everyone\'s body.
Others turned pale with fright, witnessing this. Especially Association Leader and Elder Yel—they knew how powerful that elder was. However, in front of Kadyn, he was nothing but a punching bag.
At this moment Kadyn turned towards Hicka. He didn\'t feel resentful towards the Association Leader or Elder Yel or even that old man. However he treated Hicka as a friend or even brother, but he betrayed him. His heart turned cold when he first realised that he was a spy. He felt terrible fury burning inside his heart, he wanted to thrash this bastard until no breath left inside his body.
Hicka spotted Kadyn\'s gaze and his entire being trembled and turned pale, and then he fell on his knees, pleading. "Please, please, forgive me, brother Kadyn. I was forced to do everything."
Kadyn strolled towards him and asked with a nonchalant expression. "Really?"
"Yes, yes, they made me do everything. They are bad people. Yes, bad people."
"Boom!"
"Ahhh!"
Kadyn smashed into Hicka\'s head and the boy rolled on the ground and moaned and snorted and choked. "Do you take me for a fool? A magus of Psychic element with ten awakened stars like you have turned into this, what a waste. I have to say that I\'m impressed by your determination, you\'ve let them beat you like a pig but never told them the truth, impressive.
"However I still don\'t know the purpose behind all this—what was your purpose behind all this? Tell me if you all don\'t want to die."
He turned towards the Association Leader and asked. "Tell me! Or you die!"
"You\'ll kill us if we tell you," he stood and said with a weak voice and pale face, looking at Kadyn with a frightful expression. He realised that he made a terrible, terrible mistake by making Kadyn his enemy. He made such a blunder for some stupid benefits.
Kadyn had an urge to kick this man again and again, breaking his every bone and crush him under his boot. "Do you fucking take me some kind of murder-maniac?! Tell me and I will let you live, or else you\'ll really die today!" Kadyn\'s heart was already boiling with rage and this stupid pig, even in this situation, was trying to mess with him.
"I\'ll tell you but on one condition." Finally the Association Leader made up his mind.
