Chapter 147 Ruined Funeral (1)
"It's fine. Just watch it unfold," I muttered with a large smile.
And, just as I had predicted, a few days later and I got an invitation to his funeral, where I was allowed to bring two people as guests.
It was customary as the more people mourn the person, the more the public would pity them… but the public is essentially no more now, so it's obvious they want to get rid of a few friends and me.
…
"Are you both ready?" I asked Cy and Findir, who had already packed their bags which would be placed not too far outside the entrance of the funeral site.
"Alright, let's go," Both said before we began walking through the city.
I would've preferred to bring Findir and Bella, but Bella is part of a large family, and of course, we would immediately be seen as targets.
I wouldn't even get the chance to witness my plan unfold before me… that would really suck.
"*yawn*... I'm tired as fuck… Couldn't we have just taken one of their cars? They have like ten luxury cars," Cy complained.
"Do you know how to drive?" I asked, and he immediately shut up… for just a few seconds, though.
"W-Well, couldn't we have a driver?"
"Then we would be seen as a target for enemy snipers as the cars all have unique license plates tailored to the car itself. Removing them is pretty much impossible as well," Findir replied, and I just gave his hair a little scruffle before picking up the pace.
…
After about half a day of running at full speed, we finally arrived at our destination, about an hour and a half from the start of the ceremony.
But, before we entered the small garden, I had a small chit-chat with a familiar face which Cy and Findir froze from.
"Yo, what's up," She said, and as we both fist-bumped, she pulled out a small tablet before showing me the location of everything she planted.
"W-Who's that?" Cy asked while blushing profusely.
"My girlfriend… who else?" I replied as if it was the most obvious question in the world.
"You said she was a kind of pretty… she's literally a goddess," Cy said, and as Findir avoided trying to stare at her, we both rolled our eyes.
Her name was Luna, and she was the fifth in line for inheritance within the Lunascar family. She is seventeen years old, just like me, and has a pretty curvy body with an almost perfect face, even without makeup.
She had short pink hair which reached just past her shoulders, beautiful pink eyes with touches of sparkling purple in the middle, and soft white skin.
The reason as to why she is assisting me with this is because she wants revenge for all the hellish experiences she had to go through as a child.
She was fed up with the pressure of being in a large family, and after how much they abused and bullied her to the point of almost making her a doll that could only speak and move by pulling strings, of course, she would try to take revenge.
Obviously, it was hard to gain this information at first, but after connecting a few vague dots and a few more connections, I was able to meet with her.
She was timid and always on guard when we first met her… and the strangest thing would probably be how she had no shadows watching over her.
No shadow users were designated for her safety, just showing how easily dispensable a kid is in the Lunascar family.
But, when somebody is so on guard, and you act extremely nice to them, an opening will pop up where you can have them cling to you like a parasite addicted to your blood.
Though… Ummm… She doesn't really display clinginess in front of others, which means she's not fully addicted to me yet.
She's dispensable anyway, so it doesn't matter to me whether she dies or not… she is… kind of powerful but not as capable as everybody else in my friend group.
"It is cold as hell… Thank god I brought a sweatshirt and sweatpants," She muttered as she handed over the tablet.
My smile couldn't be contained as the amount of damage this would do to the Lunascar family would be immense.
"Good job," I said before giving her a kiss.
As she quickly ran off with the tablet, I saw it slowly distort until bursting with fiery pink stars, destroying all evidence of everything that we had planned.
"You're an asshole," Findir said, and he would've punched me already if we didn't have a mission to see through.
"Your eyes showed no love at all… You don't deserve someone like her!" Cy shouted, and as he threw a little tantrum, I checked my phone for the time.
I'll enter late just so I don't run into any trouble before the ceremony.
…
Only after I saw the clock strike 3:10 did we enter the little garden, and my friends weren't prepared for the amount of pressure locked onto them.
They could immediately tell why I made the decision to go later as once the ceremony began, the opposing hateful glares were redirected elsewhere.
I was so damn excited that it felt like my heart was about to jump out of my chest.
Click… Tick… Tock… Tick… Tock… Tick… Tock… Click… Click… CLICK
BOOOOOOOOM
A massive explosion erupted from underneath the coffin, and the place where I had decided to stand was at the very edge, where only our hairs were slightly singed.
My smile grew wider and wider as the pink-haired boy that I had been meeting with immediately snapped his head towards me.
"I pity you," I mouthed towards him, and as he erupted with anger, we immediately left the ceremony.
A few shadows followed after us, but once we slipped past the small gate where a few guards tried to catch us, we grabbed our bags and weapons.
The shadows were all over our tail, but after turning into a small alleyway, we disappeared from their sight and reappeared on the other side of the alleyway.
"You look happy," I muttered as Luna had the same smile as me.
"You're one to talk," She replied, and the two boys behind me both grumbled to themselves as we looped around the block and found the burnt funeral ground slowly being dispersed with the strong winds.
Ash flew everywhere, and the smell of burning meat was almost a bit seductive.
We soon caught a glimpse of the burial ground of not just one person, but hundreds as some of the guests from other families were burnt to a crisp.
The explosives that we used are something the Lunascar family specializes in, which is info gathering and sometimes assassination… and explosives, I'd say, are a pretty good blatant assassination, especially with the unique bombs this family makes.
It is meant to target the mana within somebody's body and eat away at all the mana flowing within them… leaving them limp and,
"Helpless," Luna muttered with a sadistic and raspy voice.
The excitement was caught in her throat, and she wasn't about to leave just yet as the more powerful family members who could resist the explosion had already fled, fearful of another attack…
"Oh my, kid… you're still alive," I said as the pink-haired boy, who looked atrocious now from the amount of dirt and grime covering him, walked up to me.
"WHAT HAVE YOU DONE!? THIS ISN'T WHAT I WANTED!" He shouted, and as he went to go strangle me with his bare hands… I let him.
"*gasp*... *cough* *cough* *cough* *cough* *cough* *cough*,"
"GET AWAY!" Luna shouted as she went to try and save me but was punched square in the jaw, knocking her out.
"STOP! WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING?!" Cy and Findir shouted as they both charged toward the boy, but my plan had already fallen into place as government officials soon arrived.
"*gasp*... HUFF… HUFF… huff… huff…."
Slowly, I looked up at the boy, being restrained by the people in black suits and cloaks, before smirking a bit.
"H-HUH?! I DIDN'T DO THIS THOUGH! I-I DIDN'T DO IT!" The boy shouted, but it was already too late… as one of the men cloaked in black took out a piece of tan paper and unrolled it like a Chinese scroll.
"As the perpetrator of this hateful incident, you are sentenced to ten thousand years in official prison. Evidence One: Attempting to remove witnesses. Evidence Two: Placing magic explosives specifically tailored to your family. Kid… good luck," The man said as the boy was dragged into a large shadow by dark and disgusting hands.
Soon, a few of the black-cloaked people came over to me and healed my almost crushed throat and Luna's broken jaw.
But, without even giving us a goodbye, they disappeared into the shadows as if they were never there to begin with.
"Those fucking pieces of shit… ruining my satisfaction,"
And, just as I had predicted, a few days later and I got an invitation to his funeral, where I was allowed to bring two people as guests.
