132. A Shota, Avoros' True Appearance

The Gabranth king, warriors, and soldiers who saw Izumi's strength, trembled at the sight of the slaughtered enemies. Izumi didn't even flinch after he killed them all. What's terrible was how he finished off Kokurou in one sword slash even though Leowald only fought him evenly.

Previously, they didn't know exactly how strong Izumi was. Only Hiiro, Eveam, and Cruel Brigade members knew his real strength. And now, after knowing his strength, all the people of Gabranth feel lucky. Otherwise, if they insisted on war, they believed that the Gabranth would suffer a crushing defeat.

As soon as Leowald saw his childhood friend's body split in half, he was stupefied. It made him reminisce about his past.

It was only for a moment did Leowald reminisce about his past, and then he stood up and turned to Izumi.

"Why did you kill him? This is our private matter!"

"Why? You ask why? Is your head alright?"

"This has nothing to do with you!"

"Naive! If this psychopath fights seriously from the start, you're finished. You know what that psychopath did, right? He even massacred the families of Evila's higher-ups. It happened many years ago, and until now you still haven't done anything!"

Leowald just fell silent at Izumi's rebuke. When Izumi wanted to add something...

*boom* *boom*

There were loud explosions from outside.

"It's already started, eh?" Izumi murmured. He thought Avoros would not do something this conspicuous. Izumi turned toward Leowald and said,

"If you can be responsible for the deaths of people caused by your former friend, then you can complain to me about why I killed him."

Having said so, Izumi walked away. He approached Eveam who was looking in the direction the explosion was coming from.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, Eveam looked behind her.

"Izumi, is that...?"

"Yes, just as you think, Your Majesty."

What was on Eveam's mind was that the perpetrator of the explosion was her brother. Izumi knew what Eveam was thinking, so he confirmed it.

Eveam, Izumi, Hiiro, and the rest of Cruel's members immediately headed out.

The houses in Passion are surrounded by large trees because Passion is in the middle of a vast forest on the Gabranth continent. And when the explosion occurred, the trees caught fire. If this fire spreads throughout the forest, there will be a change in the weather, and Passion will probably disappear from the map.

"If any of you can change the weather to make it rain with magic, or use water magic, you'd better use that magic, especially Hiiro and Teckil!" Izumi suggested after looking at the blazing fire in front of him.

Izumi looked at the enemies and analyzed them. He saw a little boy standing in the middle of a crowd of enemies like he was leading an army.

"Aquinas, is that kid Avoros?" Izumi whispered to Aquinas. Only Aquinas, Marione, Grayald, and Shublars had seen Avoros, so Izumi asked, even though he had guessed it already.

"Yeah, even though his body is small, his strength is somehow above me." Aquinas said with a grim expression. Aquinas himself had not expected that even though Avoros had been resurrected into a child's body, his strength had not even decreased in the slightest. Avoros is 135cm tall with blonde hair and blue eyes. He seems like a very friendly and incredibly charming young boy. But, actually, he is a totally evil sociopath bent on world domination who considers others mere pawns for his use or disposal.

"Seriously? Does that mean his vessel was somehow compatible with his soul? Still, his strength is just above Aquinas, huh? In that case, I'll end this quickly." Izumi said inwardly. Izumi could see a lot of people following Avoros.

When he glanced in a certain direction, he raised his brows. He saw one person who was none other than Rudolph, who now looked like a monster.

His face remained the same, but his body seemed to have mutated. His nerves were visible from the outside, and on the left side of his shoulder, sharp blue crystals grew. Rudolph's eye is now Heterochromia iridium, with his left eye turning dark blue, and the right one still orange like the original.

This may be due to Rudolph's mutation in his left shoulder which caused the nerve cells to mutate and spread to his left eye. His face also looks scary because the color of the skin all over his body turned pale.

Izumi turned serious.

"That guy! I should have killed him at that time!"

"Who?"

Eveam was taken aback by Izumi's exclamation.

Izumi pointed at Rudolph.

All the Evilas turned in the direction Izumi was pointing. They didn't really notice since they only thought of him as a monster. But as soon as Izumi said the monster was Rudolph, the Humas King, they were dumbfounded.

"It was probably one of the experiments that Avoros did. Of course, the experiment failed. You can see that Rudolph's expression is like that of a beast that wants to tear up its prey. He had lost his sanity."

Izumi had no idea what happened to the Humas kingdom. Due to the factor of his appearance, he wasn't sure the storyline would be the same as the original. With how Rudolph had turned into a puppet. Izumi could only guess that the Humas kingdom was over.

Avoros' army looked so interesting, apart from Evila, he had subordinates of the Gabranth, Humas, and Pheom races. Too bad, Avoros just thought of them as slaves.

"Hiiro, Teckil, what are you waiting for? Use your magic to stop the flames! Do it real quick before Avoros can neutralize your magic!"

Izumi reminded them what Avoros was capable of. So before Avoros used his eyes, it was better if both Teckil and Hiiro used their magic beforehand.

The sky suddenly became dark, then rain fell heavily accompanied by lightning that struck here and there. This made everyone other than Eveam's group look up at the sky questioningly. The sky that was originally clear and turned into heavy rain was really strange.

— — — —

"My Lord, it seems someone has done this."

An Evila with a scarred face said to the blonde-haired little boy.

"It seems so."

The man with the scar on his face was Hiyomi, and the little boy with blond hair was Avoros. The two of them also felt that there was something strange about the sudden change in the weather. Avoros also had not received any news from Taishi and Kokurou.

Avoros glanced around, his gaze fixed on Eveam who was surrounded by the Cruel Brigade members. Then he saw a boy in a red robe and wearing glasses.

According to the report he got, his experiments for the past half-year seemed to be obliterated by an Evila boy in a red robe and wearing glasses as well as the Cruel Brigade members. The description matched the boy Avoros had seen with Eveam, only his appearance wasn't Evila as reported. The report also described that the red-robe boy could use any kind of magic including teleportation. That was why Eveam could come back from the Humas continent unscathed.

However, he frowned. He didn't see the newest member of the Cruel Brigade.

"Did he get killed, perhaps?" Avoros muttered in a low voice.

Avoros walked towards Eveam after seeing Hiiro beside her. He was surprised to see another Humas which was none other than Izumi.

Avoros stopped within 10 meters away from Eveam, he smiled and started to speak.

"Hehehe, it seems that you've grown up, my little sister."

Eveam was drenched in a cold sweat as a mutter escaped from her mouth.

"Avoros!"

"Why didn't you call me "big brother" just like old times?"

"There's no way someone like you is my brother."

"Ah, how cold you are, my little sister."

Their conversation was so awkward, yet dangerous. Everyone could feel the pressure released by the two of them.

Meanwhile, Izumi's eyes were naturally attracted to the boy. He felt so unreal as if the said person came out from a majestic picture capturing the true beauty of perfection. Supposing he grew up as it is to his adulthood, men and women would surely be at a loss for words due to his breathtaking charm.

He wondered how Avoros could find such a perfect vessel. Perfect beauty, a huge container of magic power, and a strong body. If Izumi could, he wanted to get such a vessel for himself.

Eveam and Avoros' conversation was still going on.

"Don't call me little sister!"

"You have a point. Certainly, I don't recall being your elder brother. Even so, we're still connected by blood, aren't we?"

Eveam was disgusted because she was displeased with that fact.

"Anyway..." Avoros looked at Hiiro and continued his words. "Looks like you're the one who ruined my experiment for the last half year."

"What do you mean?"

Avoros held his chin thoughtfully, then said.

"Hmmm, let's say you eliminated the zombie in the desert, or the zombie in the bamboo forest. They are my creation."

"Oh, at that time, huh? That's what I did. You want revenge?" Hiiro nodded in confirmation.

"No, no, no, If it's true, then come join me, I'll give you what you want! Even Eveam couldn't afford my offers! You have a lot of potentials. Your magic is what I sought the most. So, what do you think?"

Everyone was dumbfounded by Avoros' offer. They didn't think he could try to compel Hiiro so openly.
