Chapter 298
298 He looks so holy wtf
The group that was frozen on his spot all moved their heads to the commander. The man was talking on his communication device which was connected to all of the unit leaders of SMF.
“No one is allowed to approach this area until further orders.”
Reyan frowned his brows.
“Sir?”
“We can’t risk anything.”
The commander answered without even turning his face to look at Reyan.
“If this man is as strong as you say he is... Then adding more troops will only cause us to lose more people.”
Reyan closed his mouth. The man was right. What use would it be if they called for backup if this white-haired bastard could whip them out in an instant? It would only create unnecessary causalities.
“Also...”
.....
SHHHHH
Blue dust started to swirl around the whole area.
“If even I can’t stop that person...”
The commander’s eyes were now glowing light blue.
“...Then I doubt other agents will manage to do so.”
The whole area inside and outside Kairen’s shield was now filled with a blue hue. The white-haired man was still approaching them without minding what the people in front of him were doing.
“That person...”
The white-haired man was already walking inside the area covered with the commander’s power... with a blue hue.
“Will not walk past this point.”
SHHHH
The blue eyes of the man shone even more. The blue dust shook, a small breeze blew, and the whole area seemed to brighten up for a moment.
“Uh?”
The white-haired man gasped. He had suddenly stopped walking.
“OOH!”
His mouth then formed an ‘O’. He raised his head and looked at the commander with an amused face.
“It’s... quite impressive!”
His words made the commander frown even more. He glared at the white-haired man with his still shining eyes.
“Who are you, what are you doing here, and how did you pass through the barriers?”
“Oh?”
The white-haired man’s lips parted. He stared at the commander, before looking at team leader Dains. More specifically, he was looking at their clothes.
“Are you the boss here?”
“...”
His smile widened even more after seeing the commander’s glare.
“Ops! My bad! Should I have asked for permission before walking in?”
“Answer my question!”
“...I-”
The white-haired man blurted out a word before closing his mouth. His smile was gone in an instant and now he was frowning, his same looked as if he was feeling some pain. It seemed as if he was forcefully keeping his mouth shut, which had opened on its own because of the commander’s order.
“Very impressive indeed...”
But that was only just for a brief second. The man’s face didn’t contain any signs of pain or resistance anymore.
ZZZZZ
ZZZZZ
Small electric currents, no, small red cracks, popped up in the air around the man’s body.
“As for your answer, sir ruler, I’m sure you know it better than me!”
Tap
The white-haired man took one step forward.
“Huh?”
A confused gasp was what was heard from the commander before his face crumbled, his body bent down a little bit, and his frown deepened even more. The pain he was feeling was visible all over his face.
Kairen knew without needing to ask.
The law was broken.
It was broken but instead of the white-haired man, it was the commander who was in pain.
Kairen stared at the red cracks as he took one step back. The holy saint was also looking back at Kairen and also Aaron. He smiled at the face of the pale boy, completely ignored the other three people around him, and approached the two brothers with a smile on his face. With a crazed smile on his face.
“You are not my prince but... You have something I need.”
“....”
Kairen gulped and took another step back, grabbing Aaron back with himself. He glanced around, at the others. He could see team leader Dains, and Reyan ready to attack the commander, but they didn’t move for some reason. The two of their faces were pale and drenched in sweat.
Well, that was understandable. Even if they couldn’t feel the power that the man had, the power that was making Kairen unable to breathe properly at the moment, they could still feel the pressure he was emanating. Everyone would be frozen in fear in this kind of situation.
“Stop right there!”
Well, there was an exception. The holy saint stopped in his tracks, turned his head, and glared at the commander.
“Annoying!”
He then mumbled.
ZAAAPPP
A small red light flashed
BANGG
And the ground exploded somewhere besides the commander.
“UGH-”
The man was sent back. He rolled a few times and hit Kairen’s shield. However, he wasn’t that hurt.
‘He didn’t attack him seriously...’
Kairen could tell that without a doubt. He had witnessed the man’s power before, and that wasn’t even his real power. He knew that the holy saint didn’t attack the commander with the intent to kill him.
Did he think that killing the commander was troublesome? Maybe he just didn’t feel like killing him, or there might be other reasons behind it.
There was also the fact that the commander lessened the impact of the attack with his power. Kairen had seen his lips move just before the attack hit him, so he was sure that the commander had used his power in that instant.
‘Huh, he is pretty good...’
To be able to stop this person that the others paled only by being beside him, and even defend his attack... Kairen was starting to think that his commander was pretty powerful.
‘But that doesn’t matter now.’
He focused on the holy saint again.
“...What... What do you want...”
Kairen used almost all of his energy to utter those words, but he wasn’t done yet.
“I’m pretty sure... You were trying to kill me the last time...”
Even if it was hard to breathe before the holy saint, Kairen had no other choice but to buy at least a few minutes of time. He didn’t know if buying time would even help them in this kind of situation, where they were like little rats facing their predator. Still, he did his best to at least postpone their death even if it was for a few seconds.
“That’s right!”
The white-haired man smiled as if he was happy that Kairen asked that question. Even in this kind of situation, no one could oppose the fact that this person’s smile looked rather... angelic... with his long white hair fluttering behind him and his long white eyelashes closing.
‘He looks so holy... wtf!’
Kairen now knew why people had given him names like ‘the holy saint’ when he was still the head of that religion. It was completely understandable.
“I saw some pretty interesting things the last time, so I came back to you... Uh... Kairen, was it?”
.....
Tap
He took one more step toward Kairen.
“Now, tell me, boy... Where is the child?”
“....”
Kairen couldn’t help but tilt his head. The holy saint didn’t wait for Kairen to ask anything and answered his unasked question.
“The child of fate. Where is he?”
“....”
The child of fate.
Kairen’s brows frowned automatically. He didn’t know why, but he thought he had a good idea who this man was talking about. And that... made him scared.
“Looking at your face... I guess you know who I am talking about, right?”
The holy saint was now only a few steps away from Kairen. Aaron, who was standing in front of Kairen and between him and the holy saint, pushed Kairen back one more step.
“You know... if you tell me where the child is, I may... not kill you!”
The holy saint flashed Kairen another angelic smile that felt as if it was shining radiantly like a star. His tone and face were like a person who was willing to help someone in need out of goodwill, not a crazed man who was there to kill them.
Child of fate... Was this man really talking about Ariyan? Kairen had some guesses about Ariyan... Fate, and about the relationship between those two... but he was not sure. He only had some guesses based on some information, which weren’t really reliable, and nothing more.
He couldn’t be sure if the ‘Child of Fate’ that this man was talking about was really Ariyan or not. He also didn’t know why he was looking for that child and what he needed him for.
Kairen closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
“I... don’t know what you are talking about.”
But even if this man was indeed looking for Ariyan, even the child really had some kind of power... there was no way in hell Kairen would let this holy saint lay a hand on that kid!
“Who is the child of fate? What do you need him for?”
“...”
He glared at the man’s white pupils. His whole body was trembling under the pressure, but the anger he was feeling was giving him the courage to talk.
“So you’ve decided to act like this...”
The holy saint lowered his gaze and shook his head. Even this act of his looked holy and beautiful to the eyes, but the people around him felt chills on their backs looking at his expression.
“Then, let’s ask something else!”
The group that was frozen on his spot all moved their heads to the commander. The man was talking on his communication device which was connected to all of the unit leaders of SMF.
“No one is allowed to approach this area until further orders.”
