Chapter 77 A Dark Night... Part-2.
artavia, capital city, blaze mansion.main gate.
dark clouds hung in the sky, and it rained heavily on that moonless dark night.
*step**step*
a sound of heavy footsteps rang out in front of the main gates.
the security guard hurriedly rushed out of his small resting room with an umbrella in his hand.
the old guard had a disapproving expression on his face as he had to go out in this heavy rain to open the door.
he opened a small window in the giant metal door to look outside, but he saw no one standing there.
"who's there? state your business! the blaze family is closed to visitors right now-"
*rumble*
before the old guard could finish speaking, a violent tremble shook the massive metal gate, crushing it into a small ball.
even the walls that were holding the gate in place got destroyed in an instant, as if they were made of paper.
the old guard was horrified after seeing this scene.
"s-such insane telekinesis!?"
as the old guard has been a warrior all his life, his experience is vast.
he immediately knew that the other party had used telekinesis, but this is the first time he has seen such an insanely strong telekinesis ability in person.
before the old guard could think about anything, a man with an extremely cold expression on his face walked inside, throwing away the crushed metal door with his telekinesis.
rainwater soaked the man's dark purple hair, giving the impression that he had been wandering in the rain for a long time.
not only was that man's aura extremely suffocating, but even his dark purple eyes carried immense indifference and coldness in them.
the old guard wanted to shout and alert the people, but the man only glanced at him for a moment, making it difficult for him to breathe.
he dared not even move a little bit from his spot.
the man stopped for a second after seeing the old guard's face, and he suddenly stretched out his hand to pat the old guard's shoulder.
"old man olin… you should go home early today…"
the guard was taken aback after hearing that unknown man say his name, but as if a sudden memory came back to his head, he immediately understood who that unknown man was.
but before the old guard could say anything else, the man had already walked away inside the mansion.
"n-no way… t-that was… that was…"
the old man didn't delay; he immediately packed his stuff and left for home.
he took jareth's words seriously and didn't stay there for long. he has his grandchildren waiting for him at home; he can't risk his life here.
…
jareth ignored the elderly guard's retreating figure and pushed his mana into the ground.
[basic magic: mana detection!]
'ten grade-4 warriors patrolling the area… thirty ordinary guards, and then there is a grade-3 mage inside the mansion… likely that old butler…'
jareth's mana control is at an extreme level due to his mana singularity; thus, when he uses mana detection, none can sense his prying eyes and none can dodge his perception.
he's like an unstoppable force that you can't guard against if he tries to spy on you.
'as for that basement…'
after determining the strength of the entire mansion, jareth used his detection skills to bypass all protective magic barriers and
"that slow-burning flame is a torture method… you know what? i learned it just so i could one day use it on you all… isn't my magic beautiful?"
the more jareth talked, the more crazy his expression became, as if he were possessed by a demon, his face looked like a sadist serial killer at that moment.
aleid shed tears of blood when seeing his mother's face, which was twisting from sheer pain as she wasn't even able to express it.
that fire lasted a whole ten minutes; eventually, it burned the woman and turned her into ashes, and it didn't even leave her bones intact.
she died an extremely horrible and traumatizing death.
aleid was already on the verge of going insane after he was able to do nothing to save his mother's life.
his happy memories with his mother flashed by in his eyes as he saw her die in such horrible way.
"yeah, that's the expression, aleid! exactly!! that's exactly how i felt when your father got my mother killed… doesn't this feeling seem quite overwhelming?"
seeing that aleid had already lost his sanity at that point, jareth smiled in satisfaction and nodded his head.
"yes, any sane person will lose their mind if something like this happened to them… i was a rare one… i pulled through that trauma and came back to haunt you guys…"
a look of satisfaction appeared on jareth's face and a rare smile hung on his face.
he threw another 'slow burning flame at aleid and burned him to death too.
