I Became The Mafia Boss Inside The Novel

Chapter 72 Mistake (3)



Shng—!

Under the gaze of everyone, the sword pierced through Yoru\'s arms like it was tofu, causing blood to splatter to his body.

The blood was red. Too red. It descended like a waterfall, causing a pond of scarlet liquid to form beneath.

Yoru\'s eyes trembled incessantly, gazing at his own blood before raising his head to meet Rain\'s deathly cold eyes.

"Y-you…"

"Shut up."

Rain coldly spat out. There was no trace of mercy in his pupils, only repulsion and disgust. To those who knew him here, his actions were truly astounding.

It was like night and day compared to his usual personality.

Seeing what Rain did to Yoru, Lance immediately snapped out of his daze. His whole body trembled as anger surged within him.

He approached Rain in anger and pressed his hand to the purple-haired man\'s shoulders, gripping it tightly.

"You... insolent clown, what do you think you\'re doing?!"

"You shut up too, Lance. I\'m cleaning the parasites of this world that don\'t deserve to live,"

Rain didn\'t bother turning around to acknowledge him.

Lance only felt his anger rise through the roof with that comment. He was, once again, being disregarded like a couple of days prior.

Without even thinking for a moment, his eyes flickered a golden gleam as he took out his silver spear.

Seeing that the current situation was escalating, everyone snapped out of their daze and caught on to the tense atmosphere.

Except for Zyrish who couldn\'t help but let out a low chuckle in the insanity, enjoying the scene like she was watching a movie.

"Hehehehe! Who knew goody two-shoes had such a cold, interesting side to him?"

Zyrish Fallen was fascinated. At first, she found Rain boring — but perhaps she was just too impatient.

Ignoring her, Elizabeth was in deep thought beside her. She was confused. She thought she had a good grasp of people, but…

"Violetstar, what are you doing…?"

She looked at Rain, mystified by what was happening. As far as she knew, Rain wasn\'t the type to attack people without reason.

Sumi Aethereal eyebrows knitted to a frown. She was too confused for her own liking. She stepped forward, trying to mediate the tense situation.

"Lance Schultz. Calm down, perhaps there\'s a reason for this."

"What reason could there possibly be?!"

Lance looked at her and retorted with disbelief. He clenched the handle of his spear tightly and pointed it towards Rain in a threatening manner.

"Release him, you insolent bastard. There\'s a limit to my patience and understanding..! You simply think nothing of me, don\'t you?"

"I have no time to bandage your ego, Lance. Step back. I don\'t want to fight you. This is not a fight you would want,"

Rain spoke calmly. His words were like a knife, cutting through Lance\'s pride and forcing his rage to erupt.

Without any hesitation, Lance gripped his silver spear and immediately activated [Noble Light] in one instant.

The originally tense atmosphere exploded as Lance was instantly covered with light and went for the attack.

However, before he could even attack—a large gust of wind suddenly pushed Lance back.

[Hurricane Push]—!

On the back, Roshia closed her eyes and casted a spell. Lance was pushed back slightly and had his offense stalled.

Whoosh!

Unable to resist, Lance suddenly stabbed the hilt of his spear to the ground to stop his body\'s momentum.

Taking this opportunity, Sumi immediately stepped forward. She gave a grateful glance to Roshia before turning to Rain.

"Rain, what are you doing? You better have an explanation for this. Why did you suddenly..."

Rain seemed hesitant for a moment before releasing a small sigh. He looked at Yoru with disgust.

"He\'s a demon."

As his words fell, a pin-drop silence descended on the place. Everyone was in disbelief, unable to comprehend his words for a moment.

Demons.

Existence of sins. Symbols of evil. Leeches of life. Pervasive parasites. The all-consuming plague. Nightmares of the Universe.

They were the enemies of humanity.

Hearing his words, Yoru was shook. He saw everyone\'s reaction, making him feel dread. He quickly opened his mouth and shouted in disbelief.

"He\'s lying! What demon?! I\'m human, can\'t you—"

"Shut up."

Rain cut him off. He raised his sword, and in one fell swoop, cut off all Yoru\'s limbs like it was nothing. It was a brutal sight.

Elizabeth and Roshia winced, their eyes averting in disgust.

Aside from them, no one seemed to care about Yoru\'s state. Everyone was still fixated on the word "demon" that Rain uttered.

Sumi quickly snapped out of her daze. She looked at Yoru\'s body, limbless and seemingly in despair of his current situation.

\'That\'s a demon...? How?\'

Before Sumi could have a chance to speak, Lance opened his mouth first.

"...Are you sure?"

Rain nodded with certainty. He looked straight into Lance\'s eyes, as though he was not afraid of being seen through.

"Yes, I have a skill that can detect demons. I can\'t explain the specifics, but trust me… he\'s a true demon."

"..."

Lance didn\'t reply. He nodded slowly as he digested the words in his mind. His eyes were empty, but one could feel anger brewing in them.

nothing at all.

09:46

It was different from the anger that he exhibited against his opponents; this was a cold, empty rage brought out by betrayal.

At this moment, Yoru looked at him with despair.

"Leader, you have to believe in me—! I\'ve been with you for the past few days! I\'m not a demon! I\'m really not a demon, leader..!"

But his sorrowful cries fell on deaf ears.

Hearing his sympathetic cries, Sumi seemed to be hesitant about something. Her eyes flickered a doubtful gleam.

However, Elizabeth sensed her doubts and quickly spoke to everyone.

"Rain is right. That person… no, that evil being. He\'s not human. The spirits have told me that he\'s not someone from this world."

Hearing her words, Sumi\'s doubts were cleared.

Elizabeth\'s words may be vague, but considering her background, there was no need for doubt.

Lance clenched his hand. He looked at Yoru, who was despairing and crying hearing their words, as though he was innocent.

Then, Yoru fell silent.

The tears on his face slowly melted, seeping deep into his flesh. He looked at the sky while his dark pupils were empty and unresigned.

Under everyone\'s watchful gaze, Yoru\'s body trembled. It convulsed like something was growing out of it.

It enlarged, widened, and finally bloomed. A huge, scarlet-red figure slowly came into being. The figure was erratic, strange, and evil.

It was a five-meter tall humanoid being, with hard red flesh, as though scaled armor. He had an attractive mature face and black hair, yet possessed demonic air.

Underneath his long legs, Yoru\'s body collapsed and dispersed into fragments of shadow like it was nothing at all.

Then, before their eyes, the scarlet-red demon with immaculate evilness and sin gazed at them with rage brewing in his eyes.

Garuda, Baron of Pride.

So yeah.. long time no see. As you might feel, I\'m rushing up this arc since it feels too dragge now.

I want to get in the academy asap. I can\'t upload this week, but I will finish this arc next week (mass upload).

Life too busy, sigh. I want to write full time but it isn\'t possible, nevertheless thanks for reading.
