Chapter 174: Leaving Rover City (2)


    Reza''s heart skipped a beat when she was noticed.


    Ikeda''s expression darkened. "Please leave. We are having a discussion."


    "Haha! It''s fine, Mr. Ikeda. Let the persone in."


    For some reason, beads of perspiration appeared on Reza''s forehead. As she was about to take a step, a hand was ced on her shoulder and pushed her back.


    "I''m sorry for the unsightly disy, Respected Sir."


    Mrs. Terio entered the living room, her head lowered.


    "Interesting." The man shrouded in ck chuckled. "Are you his wife? How lucky, Mr. Terio."


    Ikeda nervously nodded his head. "May I know why you would want the item?"


    "I''m afraid it''s a confidential matter." The man shrouded in ck shook his head.


    "Oh" Ikeda didn''t have any expression of disappointment. Even though he was curious, he knew that the other party was a huge figure and he didn''t want to involve himself in the matters of the big figures.


    "By the way, does your son have Nirvana''s Break?"


    "Y-yes." Ikeda was shocked to find out that the person opposite him seemed to know this. It led him to believe that he even knew some more things about the item but he didn''t dare to ask.


    "Can you bring him here? I can examine his condition." The man said something which shocked the Terio couple.


    "Yes! I''m bringing him here. Please wait." Mrs. Terio was on the verge of tears when she heard this as she hurriedly exited the living room.


    Reza was no longer peeking into the living room but she could still hear the discussion. The more she listened to the discussion, the more puzzled she got. ''Ryu has Nirvana''s Break?'' She knew what Nirvana''s Break is but never knew that her brother had that.


    "I don''t know how I could ever repay you" Ikeda said with emotions all over his face. Today, he had lost all hope for his son but it seems that fate isn''t too bad to him.


    The man shrouded in ck waved his hands. "I caused inconvenience to you bying here. It''s only right that I do something."


    After a while, Mrs. Terio came to the living room with her son on her bosom crying tears of happiness. Lying him down on a sofa, Mrs. Terio turned to the guest. "Please see him."


    The man got up and came near Ryu, then caught his right hand. "..."


    His silence made the Terio couple as well as Reza who was standing outside anxious.


    "Is something wrong?" Mrs. Terio couldn''t hold back her anxiousness.


    The man shrouded in ck didn''t give a straight answer. "I want everyone staying in the vi toe to this room."


    "No problem! That will be done within a minute!" Ikeda vigorously nodded, then called his butler. "Alex!"


    A few secondster, the Head Butler Alex entered the living room. "I''m here."


    "Call everyone living in the vi in this room right now. Don''t leave a single one out." Ikeda gravely spoke.


    Alex was a bit shocked by the sudden order but he quickly nodded. "Right."


    ***


    A minuteter, all the servants from maids to janitors gathered in the living room. Since the living room was quiterge, it didn''t overcrowd the ce. Discussions were made among them about the purpose of the sudden call.


    Reza was also present among them, quietly looking at her brother. ''I never knew that Ryu had Nirvana''s Break.''


    Ikeda turned to the man shrouded in ck. "Do you need anything else?"


    The man shook his head, then chuckled. "I don''t need anything else but you should prepare yourself."


    Ikeda was confused by the words of the man. "What do you mea--"


    *Swish*


    A long de passed through his abdomen stopping his words midway. The long de glowed in blood red. The man slowly pulled his de out as Ikeda''s body fell on the floor without a single word.


    "..."


    Silence.


    After a second of silence, chaos filled the entire room.


    Mrs. Terio''s eyes widened.


    Reza fell down on her knees not believing what was happening in front of eyes.


    The Head Butler Alex went forward to fight the man.


    *Swish*


    He became headless the next moment.


    sh!


    sh!


    sh!


    It was a one-sided ughter. When the people starteding at her, the man shrouded in ck took the initiative to go towards them. Gradually, only a few people were alive in the room.


    Reza saw her personal maid getting brutally killed.


    Reza saw her mother falling on the floor after a sh at her neck. She wanted to go towards her but her legs were weak.


    "No! Not Ryu!!" She yelled at the top of her lungs but the oue didn''t change.


    The man in ckughed lightly, then ruthlessly plunged his de towards Ryu''s heart.


    Blood flew from his mouth as the closed eyes of Ryu opened slowly. Because his face was towards Reza, the first person he saw was her. "Huh sister? Where am I? I''m sleepy please wake up in the morning"


    His eyes slowly closed again.


    He was dead.


    "AHHH!" Reza let out a heart-wrenching cry. Bawling her fist, she ran towards the murderer.


    The man in ck let out a smile.


    With a single flick on his finger, she was pushed back.


    Reza screamed again and ran towards him again.


    This time, she was held up through her neck.


    "Do you hate me?"


    Reza didn''t answer but she continued to struggle.


    "Haha! Quite a feisty one, aren''t ya? Very well, look closely at this face and remember it." The man shrouded in ck took off the cloth that was preventing him from seeing his face revealing a young face


    Reza was initially shocked with how young the person was but then, she gritted her teeth and tried kicking him.


    The young manughed, then threw her on the floor.


    "It''s regrettable that I didn''t find what I was looking for but" His eyes turned to Ryu''s body. He crouched and pierced Ryu''s chest with his hands, then dug out his heart. "The heart of someone who had experienced Nirvana''s Break this isn''t too bad."


    He looked at his surroundings.


    Everyone except for Reza was dead.


    He walked towards her and grabbed her hair. "Well, I''m going to let you live. Do you know why I''m doing so?"


    "..." Reza didn''t answer. Her eyes were filled with hatred. "You would regret this"


    "Now that you say that, I would indeed regret it if you were to get a dues ex machina ande after my head. So I guess I have to change... Haha! I never intended to leave you in the first ce!" He shed a smile, then twirled his de, plunging it towards her face.


    Ssh!


    The de pierced her head.


    Reza''s body fell.


    He pulled his de out, then heard sounds of chaos. "It has started. I should get going."


    He disappeared as if he never existed in the first ce.


    Just then, Reza appeared out of nowhere and held "Reza''s body" which was the body of a middle-aged man. It was Ikeda. He hadn''t died when the young man thrust his de on his chest and was secretly alive. In the final moment, when the young man was about to kill his daughter, he used a Sealing Technique of illusionary type which reced himself with Reza.


    "PAPA!!" She cried out loud.
