Hero of Darkness Chapter 52: Under the Moonlight

Chapter 52: Under the Moonlight

The midnight moon shone brighter and covered the entire city under its serene and peaceful light.. The blissful air slithered across the city as the chilling breeze complimented the moonlight.

FLICK!

A small shadow flickered amongst the city buildings and pa.s.sed by and ran through the shadows of one building through another.. Completely pa.s.sing through the eyes of hundreds of people, not even one of them sensing any presence from this shadow.

This shadow was none other than Kahn using the Shadow Walk skill and traveling through the city. This is exactly how he hunted and killed those criminals ever since he started acting as Azrael.

Kahn stood atop a tall building and gazed at the humongous mansion in front of him that stretched for around 3 kilometers in length and breadth..

What made it different that it had layers of buildings, the normal buildings on the borders of the site while after a gap of few hundred meters, there were more well designed and decorated houses. And in the third inner layer, lied an extremely exquisite and well carved wooden building.

Kahn was instantly reminded of how those Sects in Cultivation stories were created in this same style. Where the normal servants and disciples lived in outermost parts and the truly important people with a position or importance in the innermost parts.

Kahn's vengeful eyes landed on this site as he continued to slither through the shadows walked right through the main gate of the mansion.. The guards on duty didn't even notice that someone had pa.s.sed by them.

Kacha!

Suddenly a guard felt pain in the back of his neck but before he could even register what happened, his head was severed from the body and landed on the ground.. The man saw his own headless body fall before him as he drifted into eternal sleep.

Kahn already had the idea that in the entire family, only Stragobor had reached the grandmaster rank..

Even his father, the current head of this n.o.ble clan was an Intermediate Master rank fighter at best.

One by one.. Bodies dropped as Kahn and Ronin pa.s.sed through the shadows and killed the guards without making a single mistake.

If Omega was Kahn's battle partner, then Ronin was his a.s.sa.s.sination buddy. They had already mastered their coordination a long time ago. And using Hive Mind skill he created using Synthesis, it was like two different Kahn were doing the a.s.sa.s.sinations.

Today, Kahn was truly p.i.s.sed off. Because for the first time, he had let his guard down ever since he came into this world called Vantrea. In the grand display of his craft at the banquet.. He let a simple servant poison him.

This irked him to the core because if not for the grandmaster rank Poison Immunity skill he had gotten by luck.. He'd be a dead man and lose his second chance at life. It was much different than someone far stronger than him killing in a battle..

To Kahn, it was more like training yourself to fight a Dragon but getting killed by a Chicken instead.

This was a thorough insult to him and exactly hit on his nerves.

[Never again!] spoke Kahn to himself as he vowed to never leave his guard down.

As for Stragobor.. Who the f.u.c.k cared if he was a grandmaster rank fighter or his family had a huge background.. He had made an attempt on Kahn's life so he had to pay the price.

He already killed Stragobor's younger brother because they tried to set an ambush and kill him over a small quarrel.. And now the elder brother followed the footsteps of the younger one who was already sent to h.e.l.l by Kahn.

Normally, Kahn would mind his business and do things that would be beneficial to him alone. But he never got picked a fight with random strangers..

And now with his current strength, he had a simple rule.. He won't mess with the pa.s.serby. But if someone threw stones at him..

He would throw a f.u.c.king mountain at them!

One by one, the dead bodies piled up in this mansion. As per his information, this was a private property where only the core clan members lived.

Majority of the women and children lived in a different property, only those who had considerable strength and authority in the clan were allowed to live in this ancestral site.

This made things easier for Kahn as he wasn't a heartless monster to kill innocent women & children.

In just 40 minutes, Kahn and Ronin had killed more than 30 guards and the first layer of defense was already broken. He reached the inner parts of the mansion after silently killing through guards and taking out everyone in his wake. Because there wasn't any need to spare any life here.

Swis.h.!.+ Swis.h.!.+ Kacha! Kacha!

Kahn made sure that everyone he killed didn't drop on the ground or made any noise, he carefully put them down including their weapons and used the dark corners inside the mansion to kill out everyone awake and sleeping.

He didn't mind killing the females in the mansion either. As the servants would not be allowed to sleep under the same roof as the main family members, he wasn't afraid of killing someone he shouldn't have.

Finally, after he reached the third and the last mansion, he took out the guards on the duty and ordered Ceril to come out.

"Cast the Silence Barrier." Kahn ordered and the Enchanter subordinate created a silencing barrier and covered the entire building.

Ronin went silently and returned with a head of an old man and a woman. Ceril then deactivated the barrier.

Kahn went and kicked the main door and broke it in half with a single kick.

"Who is it?!" shouted a burly bear-like tall man and woke up from his sleep after he sensed a killing intent. He quickly grabbed the giant Battleaxe that was kept on the left of his bed and ran down to the main hall of this building.

"I told your brother that if you came looking for trouble.. I'd send you to meet him in the afterlife." spoke the hooded figure.

Kahn revealed his face to this bearded man.

"You! You're still alive!" shouted Stragabor in disbelief.

"Why so surprised? Oh anyways, I come bearing gifts." spoke Kahn and threw two heads towards Stragabor's feet.

"You b.a.s.t.a.r.d!!" roared Stragobor as he quickly recognized the two heads.. These belonged to none other than his parents.

"Don't worry.. I'll send you to meet them soon." spoke Kahn expressionlessly.

"You forgot who you're fighting against. I'm a grandmaster rank fighter.. And I'm going to make you beg for death!" bellowed Stragabor as he brandished his powerful weapon that was glowing yellow.

Kahn smirked and said "Who said I'm fighting you.."

Swis.h.!.+

Suddenly, two giant and tall figures jumped out of his shadow and filled a quarter of this huge and broad room.

"Alone."
