Protagonist?Antagonist? I Reject Both

Chapter 335  335:Death Wish

As soon as the dragon and Leon collided, an apocalyptic lightning explosion spawned almost instantly, followed by a loud and world-ending thunderstorm Nôv(el)B\\jnn

BOOOOOM!

A flash of lightning erupted that lit the entire place.

A shock wave spread out creating a seismic wave of destruction.

The slum was shattered and the noise barrier that had been crafted broke into tatters.

The houses and buildings collapsed under the pile of rubble that drifted away by shockwave.

The black lightning dragon was torn apart by a blade of darkness that extended for several meters creating a huge chasm.

The ground was torn apart and as soon the dust dispersed two images flickered.

The cloak draped around his body before was now in burnt rags, leaving his toned muscles exposed to the world.

His black hair was fluttering with the raging storm around them. Two blackish draconic skeletal wings unfurled behind his back flapping vigorously.

He was using his right hand to grab a black-haired Demon by his neck and had him lifted in the air.

Meanwhile, his left hand was grabbing the hilt of a blackish dagger that was plunged into the black demon man's chest, piercing his core and dismantling it.

Demorgan was on the brink of losing consciousness. His eyes were already closing and his vision was also darkened.

Leon pulled out his knife, removed his hand from Demorgan's neck, and let him fall to the ground but before that, he waved his hand.

SWOOSH!

A blackish line was drawn and Demorgan's head was separated from its body.

Then two thud sounds resounded.

He then let out a deep breath. This was fun.

Though, he should confirm his kill. As he thought that, Leon moved to pierce Demorgan's skull.

He then turned around towards the Elf.

The wound wasn't serious enough to kill that woman but it seems that the woman committed suicide.

"Do you really think you can escape by dying? Sorry mate, you are in a serious dilemma right now."

A smirk appeared over Leon's face and he flicked his fingers.

"Awaken!"

Leon muttered with a scowl.

SWOOSH!

A gust emerged forming a whirlwind of black smoke but before it could form.

AHHHOOOOOOOO!

A painful bellow echoed startlingly to him.

The blackish mass of smoke that was the soul of the dead emitted a screeching sound akin to nails scratching the surface of metal.

He noticed a smirk flashing on the blackish ghost face that was emerging from Demorgan.

Surprisingly, it came from the soul that seemed to be torn apart and vanished as if it were taken away into the Netherlands.

Leon, who had never encountered such a situation, could only frown and stood like a statue unable to reach.

In the next instant, the soul vanished as if it had never been present here.

The situation bothered me.

Seeing the prey getting out of his hand irked him however he didn't pursue it.

He closed his eyes and used his eyes to search for the soul but it was meaningless as the deed was already done.

He squatted down to look at the corpses.

The low-level ones had their souls intact but the upper one's souls vanished.

The upper ones he referred to were Demorgan and Aerin whose souls were taken away; however, the other soul seemed to have died.

"Their soul…It seems as if someone had control over their souls and as soon as they died, it was called over."

Leon's eyes darted across the solemn scenario around the place.

He really felt like shit.

Not only were these bastards strong but it seems they even had a technique where their souls would be destroyed after death.

"Fuck," Leon cursed.

 So two of the guys managed to escape in the end while he failed to turn many into ghosts.

Wasn't this a serious problem if this kept on happening?

That meant for all of those deaths, he wouldn't get anything.

"These Black demons are a piece of shit. Not they are worse than a piece of shit."

"Secondly, there are other human armies."

"Such incompetence.."Leon clicked his tongue.

Fortunately, this place was empty otherwise who knew how many would have died?

[Lord, the human army had already appeared long ago. They formed a barricade around the slum and kept the people from coming here.]

"Huh! Since they are here, why aren't they here?"

At that time, his communication rang as he picked it up, he heard Argent's voice.

[Leon, I am not going to ask what you are doing now as I am sure you might have already raided one of their bases.]

[ I know what's going on in your mind, but for now, don't go raiding other bases or provoking the Black Demon… just… just come back to me, okay]

[The army is on standby and they will handle things from here on so just come here quickly. Things are a bit here]

Taking a deep breath, Leon nodded and tapped on his earpiece to disconnect the call before saying, "Okay."

He sighed once again and cast a look at the corpses lying at his feet.

He then looked at others with a somber gaze before turning around and leaving the scene like a passing breeze that was never there.

However, before he could do that, he felt his earpiece buzzing. Sighting, Leon tapped on it and spoke, "Yeah, what is it?"

[Leon, after you return, please control yourself and restrain yourself.]

"HUH!"

Question marks appeared all over his head.

"Why? What happened there?"

[Nothing much. You will know after you come back.]

"Stop wasting time and tell me what the fuck is going on or else…]

[SIGH….]

Leon heard a deep sigh from the other side.

[Someone proposed.]

"To whom?"

[Your sister and Su Lin.]

"...."

A deep silence lingered that overwhelmed the noises of explosion.

For Argent, it was the longest silence…A silence that froze him in the chiller for years.

"What did you say?"

Leon asked in a menacing tone.

...…

On the other side, Argent shook his head and looked around.

After saying that he directly cut the call. It's better to inform him first rather than make him explode on the spot.

Pausing for a moment he looked at his secretary Jess and sighed.

"Ask everyone to evacuate if possible."

"Got it!"Jess gave a nod and taking out a notebook started scratching something.

"What are writing?"

"This…I am writing preparation for the funeral and compensation in case we need it later in case someone died, tragically."

"...."

After a brief pause, Argent nodded, "Good work, indeed."
