Chapter 139 - Weakness That Lies In The Strong



Once Yuki had finished his battle with V(5), he left his enemy on the ground before using his ability to fly back to Chares. All while V(5) looked up at the sky as he watched Yuki fly away from him after he had just crushed his will. 

When Yuki flew back to where he had left Chares, he saw another figure sitting on his chest as he continually beat Chares. However, instead of interrupting, Yuki watched from a distance as he slowly lowered himself to the ground. No talking could be heard, all the sound Yuki could hear was the figure\'s fist making contact with Chares\' face violently. 

At some point, the figure decided to look behind him to which he was greeted by Yuki. However, unlike what the figure expected Yuki\'s facial to look like, which was an angry and vengeful face, Yuki looked to be intrigued more than anything. 

"Can I help you?" the henchman which had been beating Chares for a pulp for several minutes asked. 

"No, sorry, I didn\'t mean to get in the way. I just wanted to watch as this played out," Yuki replied. 

"Are you serious? You won\'t help the man who abandoned all of us to join you. Instead, you\'re going to watch as I continue beating him?" the henchman asked as he broke into laughter.

"... Yes? I thought I made that clear. You can continue doing what you choose. I have nothing to do with it so I won\'t interfere," said Yuki. 

"Of course you have something to do with this. If it weren\'t for you, Chares would have still been on our side and we would\'ve been well on our way to become filthy rich," the henchman argued. 

"I guess you do make a fair point. Well, I better make up for my mistakes," said Yuki as he prepared to use his ability. 

"Activate ability: Fire Control"

Using his flames, Yuki created an intricate blade which flouted in the air. Without a moment wasted, Yuki fired it at the henchman who was so surprised that he froze in place as he watched the blade come towards him at top speeds only to stop right before reaching his eye. 

"What\'s wrong? I thought you wanted this. Why are you backing out now? You told me I should defend my new comrade so I\'m doing exactly that. You have no right to be scared," said Yuki as he began to walk towards the henchman.

"But-" the henchman tried to speak. 

"Nope. You\'ve lost your chance to be shown mercy. You\'re so ungrateful that you don\'t realize when someone is showing you mercy. You need to lose something for you to understand how valuable it truly was. Let me show you how much you actually treasure your life," said Yuki before snapping his fingers which made the fire blade disappear. 

Before the henchman could get up from Chares\' body, Yuki went in from a clean punch in the face. However, that wouldn\'t be enough. Yuki walked towards the henchman which was 2 metres from where he was previously due to being punched so hard and grabbed him by the head. Yuki lifted the henchman by the face and held him in the air as he walked towards a nearby house. Without any remorse, Yuki slammed the henchman\'s head into the house\'s walls. In doing so, Yuki had caused the back of the henchman\'s head to bleed. 

"What\'s wrong? Cat bite your tongue?" said Yuki before pulling the henchman\'s head out of the wall. However, Yuki wasn\'t going to stop there. Yuki continuously shoved the henchman\'s head in and out of the house wall so much so that he broke down the wall itself. 

Engulfed in agonizing pain, the henchman grassed onto Yuki\'s palm as he flailed around-trying to loosen the grip of Yuki\'s hand.

"That\'s what I thought. Next time, don\'t say something unless you have the strength to back it up," said Yuki before throwing the henchman in the air. Once he landed back on the ground, the henchman stopped moving. Luckily for him, he was still alive. Yuki knew this because he didn\'t receive a notification that he had gained 2500 exp. 

Once Yuki had finished matters with the henchman, he walked towards the blooded and brushed Chares. However, both of them didn\'t exchange any words. The both knew where they stood with each other. Yuki knew that Chares wasn\'t actually on his "team". Yuki only planned to have Chares tag along with him until he was able to go and start a new life of his own. Yuki had actually been planning for Zero to send Chares to another country of continent in the new world. Yuki had opted for that option and in the end found a life which he was better than anything he had hoped for. The life of endless crime wasn\'t meant for Chares, he just happened to be dragged into it. 

"So what now? I\'m assuming you already took down V(5)," Chares asked Yuki.

"Well, I\'ve had my fun here. All that\'s left for me now is to go up against IV(4). I hope he actually has a surprise for me. If not, I would\'ve wasted all my time for nothing," Yuki replied. 

Even though Yuki had a suspicion that IV(4) was just lying to him to buy himself more time, Yuki didn\'t care all that much. In the end, Yuki could catch anyone he wanted by either using his own powers or if he got desperate, he would call out to Zero for help. When Yuki first entered the world, he was reluctant to use Zero since he wanted to do everything on his own. He wanted himself to become strong enough to take on any challenge. However, through the time he had spent in the 2nd dungeon, he realized that no matter how much he tried to overcome the monster within it, he couldn\'t do it without the assistance of Zero or potions. 

Yuki had wanted himself to become self-sufficient since he wouldn\'t know when he would run out of potions or wouldn\'t be able to reach out to Zero. If something like that were to happen, he would be utterly defeated. That was what Yuki had tried to overcome. However, it was proven to him that no matter how hard he tried, he would never be able to accomplish anything without assistance.
