Cosmic Peak

Reto pointed his hand at the middle-aged man and grinned, "Bam!"

A blue fireball instantly materialized and shot forward as it hit the middle-aged man right in his chest.

Aren and others watched with shocked eyes as the blue fireball disappeared after hitting the man's chest.

"Surprised, right? Hahaha," Reto laughed before he snapped his finger, "Well, the surprise is over."

*Booom!...*

The middle-aged man was blasted into pieces.

*shriek....*

"...F-father," The girl shrieked as blood covered her face.

"Noooooooooooo...I'll kill you!" Jenril, the other young man, also screamed as he dashed towards Reto with a spear in his hand as he saw his father blasted to death.

Yashil also gritted his teeth as he shouted, "Everyone, attack him at once!"

After saying that, Yashil took out a giant brush before he waved it forward, which released black ink towards Reto.

While the black ink was in the air, It turned into two blackbirds that flew towards Reto.

He then waved his brush again, but this time, red ink shot forward as they turned into blood-red swords.

Reto just grinned seeing the attacks coming at him as he didn't even move.

He just stretched both of his hands forwards as two blue flaming whips appeared in his hands before he waved them.

*Patakk..!*

First whip wrapped around Jenril before he could reach Reto and turned him into ash, while the second whip destroyed the blackbirds and two blood-red swords one by one as Reto waved his hand and wielded the whips with great mastery.

*Booom....*

The blackbirds exploded once they were hit by the whip caused Reto to have an interesting expression on his face, "That's a power of path I've never seen before, Interesting. But...my bloodlust is more important than my curiosity, Hahaha."

Reto opened his mouth as one could see his throat turning blue before condensed bullets of blue fire rapidly shot forward towards Yashil.

Yashil's face changed as despair appeared in his eyes. Only his mind could see it and react, but his body couldn't since the bullets' speed was the same as bullets releasing from an actual machine gun.

But he still waved his giant brush as a blue ink shield appeared in front of him, but some bullets already hit him and....he didn't feel anything?

It was the same as what happened to the middle-aged man. Yashil could feel his body turning hot while his heart cold.

He knew...that he was done for.

The blue ink shield was also destroyed shortly before bullets hit him and disappeared into his body.

"Hahaha, come on! Dance some more before dying; why do you think I left you alive?"

"P-please spare us..." One of the middle-aged women broke down into crying.

While Yashil's sister gritted her teeth as she also attacked by taking out a bow. As she pulled the string, an orange flaming arrow automatically materialized before she released the string.

*Shuaaaa...*

The arrow hit the smiling arrow in his chest, but...it didn't even scratch his armor.

At this time, Yashil's sister was filled with regret. If she didn't speak anything, then uncle and Jenril wouldn't have died, nor...her brother, who was already sentenced to death by Reto since his strange blue fire bullets entered Yashil's body.

'Aren...,' Lorain grabbed Aren's shoulder as she squeezed it.

Aren could feel their fear and the trembling of his mother's hand.

They were still connected with spiritual contact.

Luna and Quinn looked at Aren before Luna said, 'Aren...are we really helpless against him?'

Aren was having an internal conflict for the last few minutes, but he had finally made up his mind, 'We...can't do anything.'

He had decided...to put a cold stone in his heart. He can't take risks by helping them and getting killed in return.

He could use the threat method by showing the red dragon's scale but...that would expose this trump card and even if everyone safely returned due to Reto and others being scared of threat, then Aren's trump card wouldn't be a trump card against them.

After leaving, Reto and others might bait other people here or some other way to expose Aren and the party to danger to use up their trump and kill them later as revenge.

In the end, after thinking long and hard, he had made this decision.

'What if he comes to kill us after killing them?' Quinn asked as she gritted her teeth.

Aren shook his head, 'If he does that, then I have a way to save ourselves. But, I...don't want to waste this lifesaving method to help them when it's not us that are in 100% death situation right now,'-He took a deep breath before saying in a stern voice, 'Since there is a chance of us getting alive, then we will see if that works. I am sorry, but...we are not heroes or anything, at least...not right now.'

'But-'

'No Buts! Thousands of people died due to those giants! We saw people getting killed in front of us too! What did we feel at that time? Just because that Reto looks human doesn't mean he is any different from those giants! He is much more powerful than those giants! WE CAN'T KILL HIM! None of our skills would even hit or affect him!'

Hemila, Lorain, Quinn, and Luna looked at each other as they felt firsthand helplessness.

Reto played with a group as none of the attacks worked on him. Yashil was still alive but filled with despair as he just desperately attacked.

Aren looked on with a cold and indifferent expression. But inside, he was also feeling angry and helpless.

One by one, Reto killed everyone in the other group as only their ash remained, and they spread away with blowing wind.

Aren looked at Reto, who stood with his eyes closed and head facing the sky with a satisfied smile on his face, 'Fucking psychopath...'

After a while, Reto opened his eyes and looked at Aren and others with a grin stretched across his face.
