Chapter 13: Regrets

Minutes have passed since I've been exchanging blows with the beast.

But In its every deadly hit, my hands would tremor,

Slash!!!

However, this time, I was able to slash one of its legs, splurting the beast's blood in the process.

But at that moment, the beast realized that I'm overwhelming him.

I was planning on using the [Deadly Thrust] Skill to kill him but at that instant, the beast suddenly dashed and passed through me.

"Fuck!"

I muttered when I realized that the beast was aiming for Christine,

I was too focused on killing the beast that I forgot that Christine was behind me.

There's also another important factor why that beast went for her,

The beast can regain its power if it can eat a living being.

Grasping this, I gritted my teeth and cursed inside.

However, looking at how far Christine is, I won't be able to make it in time.

And even if I bought a teleport skill, I might get severely injured... Just to block for her...

Suddenly,

|"What have you become???"|

A glimpse of my past and a sorrowful voice of a woman rang through my head.

………

A man stood in front of his mother silently, as he watched his mother's tears flow from her cheeks while sobbing.

His heart ached, he didn't know what to do...

At that moment, he hated himself so much, that he wanted to go back in time to redo all of his mistakes and fix them...

However, he couldn't bear the sight of his mother anymore and...

Turned his back to her.

Tap! Tap! Tap!

His footsteps filled the room with his mother's sober.

His face didn't show emotion, but the sorrow in his eyes was visible.

Soon, the sound of the door closing echoed.

Clak!

………

I then snapped back to reality, but at that moment, my hands trembled, and without a second thought.

‹ System, use my points for Teleportation ›

I muttered inwardly as the system popped up immediately.

=============================/

[Teleportation cost 500 points]

• Not enough points-

You can only afford [Dazzling Dash, 100 points]

-Proceed?-

[Yes] or [No]

Remaining Points: [204]

/=============================\n ‹Yes!›

I said inside in an instant, then soon,

[DING!]

=============================/

Congratulations!

You have acquired the dazzling dash ability!

/=============================\n As soon I saw I got the ability, I then quickly formed mana around my back, consuming manas on my environment and my own mana, at the same time, reminiscing about my past,

And recalled the day I made an oath.

An oath that I made to myself, that I would never meet her if I didn't change.

Soon,

Tak! Tak! Tak!

Mana then began to form around my back and my sword.

Shrugging my final thoughts, I slowly whispered again to stronger my will and determination.

"Ever since that day... I promised myself that I'll change... That's why..."

——†Flash!!!†——

The sound of the wind blowing resonated and my appearance disappeared in an instant, as I appeared in front of Christine.

However, I didn't have that much time to block the beast's attack with my sword, and soon,

Slash!!

I could immediately hear my flesh being slashed caused by the deep claws of the beast and feel a burning sensation around my back.

If it wasn't for the mana which I tried practicing all these days, that I formed around my back to create a layer of barrier, I'm afraid I could have died there.

And Luckily, the dash skill I used didn't break my bones but I could feel my legs aching,

But even so with that kind of pain surging all over my body, I didn't pay mind to them and continued to charge my sword toward the beast as my blood gushed.

—Kwang!!!—

My sword dazzled in red light when I formed my mana around it and at the same time,

[Deadly Thrust!]

I used one of my abilities which caused a huge tremor but in that instant,

Sprruucckkk!!!

Blood then rained and spluttered in every direction,

The system then immediately rang!

[Ding!]

=============================/

[+20 points!] For killing the beast

/=============================\n

before I knew it, the beast's body was nowhere to be seen; Only its standing legs were left.

I could feel that the eyes of Valentina and Christine were contained with surprise.

Even I! was astonished by what I have caused, I didn't know that I was this powerful, however,

The pain I felt around my body continued as I noticed the ranked grandmaster assassin looking at Valentina who just approached Christine in worry.

Having such an exhausting fight earlier, I wanted to kneel or even sit just to rest, but my body refuses to do so because it wants to look cool and perfect as possible.

I groaned inside when I realized this, but I have no choice but to endure it.

Luckily though, I have my system so the wound that the beast made on my back is healing quickly right now.

=============================/

[Regeneration ability has been activated!]

-20 points have been consumed-

/=============================\n Looking at the system's amazing benefits, I immediately felt satisfied.

I then realized that the system consumed points this time because the injury I suffered is deadly.

It's fucking deep after all, and I'm sure that it would leave a scar on it, but not that severe because of the system, unlike for normal above average like me, they would have died already.

However, I soon realized that before I could protect Christine, she got her legs clawed by the beast,

Fortunately, I was able to make it in time to block the beast's other attack.

‹Such a cliche thing to happen› I helplessly thought.

"Useless!" I soon followed when I felt an unstoppable urge to say a word,

I then soon glanced at the master knight's headless body. And silently glared at the assassin.

When suddenly, a sound of an armor clanging resonated in my ears

"Let's go already!"

A familiar voice sounded behind me.

"Kevin, Christine must go with us!"

Valentina said as she tried to break free from Kevin's grasp.

However, she was too weak and exhausted to break free.

"If I brought her with us, It won't be that long before the assassin could catch us!

Especially considering how weak I am right now!" Retorted Kevin and continued to carry her.

Leaving her with no choice, but to be helplessly carried by Kevin as he ran.

At that moment, I understood what was Kevin doing...

"Looks like the table's been turned..."

I whispered as I watched the two's appearance disappear.

I then looked at Christine who was in a daze,

But at that moment,

—Kwang!!!—

My sword dazzled in red again and looked at the assassin approaching.

After some seconds of staring contest, the assassin spoke with a wide grin

"My aim is merely that maid and the miss who fled away, why don't you just run?"

Hearing his words, I became silent.

Indeed, why don't I just run?

To be honest, I can do that because I still have some strength for it. And it's not like they would kill a guy like me if they know I'm the son of Antelmo.

A father who will crawl to the depths of hell if you killed his only successor in blood.

That guy, Antelmo, was only killed when almost all the heroines finally combined forces and planned to bring Alfonso's family down completely.

Without doing the bankruptcy, or any strategy first, everyone would have died at his hands. Except for the overly-powered main character.

But how did Alfonso die when he has such a strong father behind him? At the time he was killed, his father went somewhere since he is a busy man. Shortly after, Antelmo was killed by the heroines and other people because he was deemed corrupt for what Alfonso did.

In short, I won't even gain anything here for protecting this maid and that shitty fiance since I'll be nulling the marriage anyway.

"..."

Soon a figure of a man appeared in my mind, the pair of his eyes were dark and deep, as if they were bottomless seas, concealing waves of tyrannical and turbulent horror.

His gun pointed at anyone, killing them no matter who they were, Innocent, guilty, with no remorse.

|Monster!|

A voice that was filled with hate resounded in my ears once again.

|Please, not my daughter!|

I soon tightly gripped the sword I was holding onto at the same time I remembered my past.

|What have you become???|

At that last glimpse of my past, my expression soon turned grim

‹Why Do I want to protect them?›

Tak! Tak! Tak!

Soon a form of red light particles gathered in every part of my bloody body and sword.

"I want to become a better person, so why not?"

I muttered, and continuously relived the sight of my mother's sorrowful look.

‹ I'm sorry ma, for not being a better son... I wanted to change but I couldn't... ›

However, to make up for the sins I have done, and to truly be the person I want to be.

This step for me is necessary!

What is the purpose of the principles and values I created to be a better person if at the moment I faced danger I choose to abandon them?

During that time of my life... I wanted to change, but I was unable to... I could not escape the hole and responsibilities I dug for myself because it was too deep.

However, now that I'm born again.

Do you think I'll let this fucking slip to redeem myself?

Fucking no!

Soon, the assassin spoke again,

"Foolish! Arrogant! Just because of your father, don't be arrogant because I will kill anyone who gets in my way!!!"

He said angrily.

‹ Yes... It is foolish, but I'm not that naive and delusional! ›

I thought, before responding to him,

"I'm just a man of my word"
