Chapter 239 5 Seconds
Blood, flesh, body parts, intestines, and five corpses littered the ground as he turned around.
He didn’t care about the fearful gazes that lingered on him. His whole attention was on Felia, whose eyes were teary and overflowing with fear.
‘A monster…he is a monster!!!’ Felia had no idea how she could have made such a big mistake in recognizing him.
She had believed that Dilan was a good person, that he was very understanding and open-minded, and that it was his charisma, his generosity, and great leadership skills that had allowed him to become a successful leader of more than 2000 humans.
It was not easy to lead a group, and based on the short time in which she had known him, Felia had grown certain that Mayor Clerens and Dilan would understand each other well.
However, upon seeing the brutal punishment Dilan had awarded to the five soldiers, who had attempted to **** one of the women belonging to his group, Felia’s heart sunk. She felt like crying at the cruelty she had just witnessed and her opinion about Dilan had changed completely.
‘What kind and generous?! He is nothing but a devil, a monster!!’ She wanted to scream out. However, not a single word escaped her lips in fear of becoming the next victim of Dilan’s cruelty.
The moment Dilan looked at her once again, Felia flinched and stopped moving again. She had problems breathing under the intense stare of Dilan, and the terrifying bloodthirsty pressure he released.
But even if she wanted to, it was impossible for Felia to avert her gaze from Dilan.
It was as if there was something about him that drew her attention to him.
If it had been just her interest and curiosity in him before, now Felia could clearly tell that she was afraid of Dilan…no, not afraid but terrified!
“Felia, let me show you something else,” He said in a cold voice that sent shivers down her spine. It was the first thing he said after killing the five Soldiers, who had deserved death according to his rules.
Dilan didn’t even try to justify his actions, and simply stared at the bodies impassively.
It was almost as if he had just accepted that he would go to war with the Blue Star camp.
He turned around, looked at all the Survivors and Ascenders in his surroundings, and observed their reactions intently.
Everyone, who felt guilty, and those who knew that they had messed up, flinched the moment Dilan looked into their eyes.
On the other hand, the Ascenders, the women, and the other Survivors, who had tried their best to help Marie, and save her from the grasp of the filthy Survivors, didn’t flinch.
Many looked at him in fear, some in reverence, and others with a prideful expression, but none of them flinched.
They knew that nothing would happen to them!
“Now tell me. What am I going to do with you guys?” He asked in an emotionless voice as he looked at the Survivors of his own group, those who had betrayed him and the rest of the group for their selfish desires!
They wanted to join the Blue Star camp, and were even willing to help the Soldiers to **** one of their fellow Survivors, just to grab a chance of joining the Blue Star camp, nothing else!
If the attempted **** of Marie was already enough to enrage Dilan, the betrayal of his own people turned him into their personal Grim Reaper.
He had let off some steam when he killed the Soldiers cruelly, but he was not even close to calming down. Within seconds, he had singled out every Survivor, and Ascender, who had supported the Soldiers.
Some of them were expected in making the Soldiers stay at their base comfortable, but Dilan was truly baffled at the sight of some Tier-1 Ascenders who had chosen to accept the Soldiers’ **** attempt.
‘How disappointing…’ He could only think, and Dilan was not the only one to think so.
Meanwhile, Yvonne and Kathrine had witnessed the massacre and were standing not even five meters away from Dilan.
They were yet to say a single word, but each of the Soldiers’ accomplices had been blacklisted in the minds of the two Sisters, and many other onlookers.
If Dilan wouldn’t do anything to them, the other Survivors and Ascenders would do the dirty work for him.
There may be some male Ascenders, who wanted to spend their night with a woman, but all of them had been disciplined that it had to be with mutual consent.
And all of them had accepted this. Not a single human with the slightest sense of justice in Dilan’s group accepted the accomplices of rapists, even more so because it was quite obvious that Dilan loathed rapists more than anything.
Nobody knew why this was the case but even murderers were accepted more willingly than rapists.
That was why everyone wanted to know what exactly Dilan would do to the people, who had betrayed his trust.
The tension in the entire hall was palpable and many Survivors had difficulties breathing. Dilan had been quiet for quite some time and only when he flicked his wrist and retracted the Blazing Serpentine Blade did a few of the traitors dare to take a breath.
However, a mere second later, their face turned ashen-white as if all the blood had drained from it. It was the moment Dilan opened his mouth that their last trace of hope crumbled into countless shards.
“I give you guys five seconds to leave my sight. If I can see or sense the slightest trace of you guys near me ever again, I will kill you.”
Oddly enough, his voice didn’t sound angry anymore. It was almost as if he had calmed down. However, the content of his words was more than shocking.
Many Survivors expected that Dilan would exile the traitors, but they didn’t think that Dilan was ready to kill some of his own.
This meant that they would have to leave Shiron and that they would have to pay attention to never enter Dilan’s view ever again.
After all, they would be killed the moment Dilan would find them, meaning they would have to survive all on their own, while trying not to be found by Dilan.
“But w-we-wee didn’t want to do it. We were forced. Otherwise, the Soldiers would have taken my sister!” One of the youngest Survivors blatantly lied.
He didn’t even have a sister. Dilan’s gaze flicked to the young man, but he didn’t bother to say anything to him. Instead, he opened his mouth and stated,
“Two seconds left.”
Many Survivors, especially those who knew that Dilan was not joking right now had already begun to run. Most of them were Ascenders, the majority of them Tier-1 Ascenders, who had fought next to Dilan several times by now.
They were running for their lives, leaving everything they had gained behind. But just as they were running, Yvonne moved. With a simple flick of her wrist, a ball of darkness emerged in her hands, shooting out at once, piercing their belts and the stripes of their armors.
All of their equipment fell to the ground. The Tier-1 Ascenders wanted to twist their body to pick up their equipment. At least, a weapon was necessary to survive outside their safe base. However, it was impossible for them to pick up a weapon as bolts of lightning emerged out of Kathrine’s arm.
They impacted on the Ascenders, and forced them to abandon their earlier thought before they rushed outside the base with regretful eyes.
‘I shouldn’t have messed with the fortune I had already attained…’
On the other hand, there were quite a few Survivors, who were stubbornly standing in front of Dilan.
Some of them were not able to move owing to the pressure Dilan released, while others were simply idiots, including one of the youngest Survivors, who had blatantly lied to him.
“No, I want to stay, I have changed my opinion… I will do everything I can to redeem myse–…” However, even before the young man could finish his sentence, he flinched, and blood trickled out of his mouth.
The Blazing Serpentine Blade cut deep into the young man’s abdomen, while Dilan’s cold eyes stared deep into the dying youth’s eyes.
“Time is over.”
Afterward, his eyes flicked to Felia for a second. She was frozen in place and looked more like a paperwhite statue than a living being.
“I don’t give a shit what you think about me, whether you believe I’m doing the right thing or not. Fact is, that your Soldiers broke my rules and that they were punished according to the punishment I set up.
My own people will be punished as well.”
With that being said, Dilan’s head turned back to the other Survivors. There were still some, who had yet to leave his sight.
Without hesitation, he whipped his weapon and killed them, not only because they were accomplices of someone attempting to **** but also because they had betrayed him, his entire group, and their entire existence as human being.
