Chapter 81: Soft But Painful Revenge [1]

[Kluma...]

When it was Roger's 25th birthday, and he discovered his master was killed, he immediately commenced revenge on those who had worked against his master.

Sitting on top of a destroyed carriage, drenched in blood, Roger's eyes darted to the group of bandits that were kowtowing in front of him. Their prostration made Roger exhale cold air.

His black and white robes covered with blood illuminated the eyes of these bandits. Roger then climbed down and raised his swords to their necks.

"Do you know that there is a rule that if you look at me in the eyes with hostile eyes, you will die?" Roger murmured in a flat tone.

The bandits trembled and kept their heads on the ground. They didn't answer and continued to remain prostrate in front of Roger, who they saw as a monster and a demon.

"The Demon Sect knows that. That is why, even at this time, they were still alive."

Roger swayed his sword downwards, instantly killing the bandits with a few slashes from his movements. And just as their bodies dropped dead, he let out a sigh and then shook his head afterward.

"That is kind of disappointing."

Roger continued searching for a way to learn who the killers of his master were. From a small hint that was left in the Demon Sect, he started searching and training at the same time. When he was 26, he finally got the opportunity to fight against those who were the supposed killers of his master. But, it was unfortunate for him since he was still weak.

But, even though he was still weak, he had already killed a huge number of his enemy's side. What was just in front of him to kill were the higher-ups.

He pushed himself to the limits, even reaching the 4th stage while he was still at a young age. He rose to prominence in his faction, earning the moniker "Feral Demon" for his ruthless killing style. He was uncontrollable and his impulsiveness got him to the top.

When he was 30, he had already gotten half of the whole continent of the place he was living in. He became a reputable official and even got a position as a general in the government that invaded the whole continent. But then, his revenge was still not over.

Roger continued to train. Even though his enemies and the killers of his master became his allies and colleagues in the government, he didn't forget the resentment he got. Until finally, when he finally reached the 5th stage of cultivation, where he could finally have his own legion of warriors.

How did reaching the 5th stage contribute to his plan? Well, he could hypnotize other people, and just as he had enough people, he ransacked the base of his master's finally and killed them.

He sought this revenge for so long that when he finally got it, he was tired of himself. 

"I didn't know that revenge would get me this weak... Master, if you are seeing this, I hope you could forgive me."

Roger was about to kill himself, but an explosion happened in a city nearby. Because of the explosion, his attention was divided and his curiosity brought him to the location of the explosion. When he got there, he intently observed everywhere to see the cause of the explosion, but what he only saw was his people dying.

Indeed, his people. Even though Roger had hypnotized people to fight for him, he still had his sincere followers that saw his actions as admirable. He was regarded as a demon, and his devotees remained loyal to him until the final day of their plan.

His people died from an explosion, and as he saw their worth when they were already dead, he clenched his fist.

"Every time..."

Roger continued to live and take over the whole continent without any complaints from the sects, clans, or cults. Instead, he created his own clan and named it "Demonyo." When he founded his clan, other continents became so threatened by him that they decided to eliminate him. 

Roger had no other interest in taking over the whole world, but, he was forced to do it as he saw another event where his people died. And just as he saw their methods, he remembered the people that died in the explosion years ago.

He recognized their ways of killing and decided to take over. He was already fed up with their threats to him and their reasons for killing his people. He was so annoyed by it that the third time they set off another explosion, Roger stopped it himself.

He was injured as a result of the explosion that covered the entire area. His body seemed to degenerate into bad pieces, and just as he had it there, he almost died.

Through this suffering, Roger realized that he was becoming a fool again. He didn't have the right strategy and couldn't recognize their ways of killing. He wanted it to stop. Therefore, he made another decision.

For some reason, when Roger had a purpose in his actions, his cultivation would become boosted, giving him a boost in his progress. Despite the damage he got, he healed himself with pure internal energy, and through that, he discovered that he could heal himself using his internal energy.

Also, by that time, Roger discovered how to reach the 6th stage, which gave him a longer life span than other Murim people. He became indestructible as he trained for another year. 

His methods of training became absurd and unreasonable to people, as every time his continent was attacked by explosives, he would cover the whole area by himself and suffer the consequences.

He did this without any stop until he finally had the strongest skin that couldn't be penetrated by anyone. Roger was recognized again by people, but this time, by the entire world.

He trained his people using the methods taught by his master. After a long training period, their enemy continent declared war against them. They threatened Roger that if he didn't surrender, they would kill everyone.

Roger was dumbfounded by this declaration of war. He didn't listen to them. Instead, he continued being impulsive and eccentric. He was becoming a savage, stupid beast, but yet, his continent was loving him more.

"You do know that, back in my world, I was called a Skinny. But now that I am a king, I am no longer a Skinny! "

Alongside his people, Roger fought against his enemy continent. They fought nonstop, which even dragged the war into months of nonstop killing. 

But as Roger had enough of this, he stopped everyone and ordered them to retreat.

"Are you going to surrender now, Feral Demon, or whatever your name is?" A commander from the enemy side uttered.

Roger was just silent as he looked at the polished land of blood. His thoughts flew to nowhere as he bit his lips and tried to control himself. He was starting to lose his emotions as he remembered his people dying back in his head nonstop.

"Were you too stunned that you were unable to speak your thoughts? Come on... I thought you were a Feral Demon, but why are you acting pussy right now."

Taunts continued to fly at him. Roger was just listening, but at the same time, clenching his fist. The enemy commander saw it and pointed it out.

"Oh, what are you going to do? Are you going to shoot me with your sword technique? You know that explosions can penetrate your sword techniques."

Roger opened his mouth after a long minute of silence. "I know that my sword technique won't work. That is why I prepared something that can penetrate your defense."

The enemy commander raised an eyebrow as he looked at Roger with confusion. "What do you mean?"

"Your methods were explosives, right? And maybe your defense was focused on enduring any explosion you have created to protect you from it, right?"

"And what about it."

Roger let out a sigh, and with his fruity speaking voice, he said, "I just got a good idea."

Suddenly, everything became silent. The wind in the surroundings disappeared as, in the next seconds, a small light appeared on Roger's hands. Roger clasped his hands and made a gap in between, and just by this, Roger's eyes turned red.

The light was red as well, and from the looks of it, it was a sphere with compressed energy. Roger continued doing this and continued to confuse the enemy commander.

"What the hell are you doing?" The enemy commander had enough of it that he decided to stop what Roger was doing, but he was too late as the light on Roger's hands became bigger.

"A slight idea of what I am doing. I had been preparing for this moment since the beginning. I prepared my body so I could withstand explosions, but did you do the same? Your defense was enough to endure the backslash of your attacks, but it was not prepared to protect you from my explosions."

The enemy commander widened his eyes as Roger released the light in his hands. But, it was too late as he was blinded by the light as it continued to grow in a fast manner. 

A loud explosive sound reverberated, and Roger became surrounded by a harmful explosion that covered the whole radius of the battlefield, which even the enemy force couldn't withstand.
