Chapter 130 Redeemed 6
The San-Baka took this as their cue and also wore the mask, bandages, and fake prosthetics. Less than ten seconds later, they separated and quickly moved towards both the front and rear entrances as well secret entrance for the VVIPs. They quickly overwhelmed the guards silently and ended the ones with [Mark of Annihilation]
When Hiro arrived on the stage, the VVIPs knew something was up. The guards knew their client\'s safety was in danger thus a lot of groups stood up to move to the exits. The more powerful ones stayed to watch the show.
Even though Hiro looked scary by all accounts, the child widened her eyes in wonder as she stared at him. She hesitated for a moment before accepting his hand. Hiro then pulled her into his embrace. The child\'s body looked extremely malnourished and weak.
Hiro\'s heart ached for her current state. He gently picked her up and allowed her to rest in his embrace. Hiro softly caressed her head as he whispered. "Good job for making it this far child, let me handle the rest."
At his words like a spell, the child fell asleep with a soft smile on her face. The angelic features and innocence of the dragonkin tickled Hiro\'s protective instincts.
\'Such a defenseless creature. How could anyone wish to harm you? Are you smiling because you are no longer alone or do you feel safe? Why do you sleep so soundly after everything that has happened?\'
Jack then pulled out a sword and started to radiate aura from his body. "Bidder 32, I beg you to cease this disturbance at once. Return to your seat and await for the deal to take place. No one will take the product from you."
When Hiro heard Jack refer to the child as a \'product\' for the Nth time. He snapped. Hiro used his free hand to grab the sword by the edge and snap it in two. In the same second, he kicked jack into the gut with so much force he flew and slammed loudly into the wall.
The elegant shock collar suddenly started to lift from the ground and moved towards Hiro\'s hand like metal to an electromagnet. This feat is made possible by a combination of skills Hiro learned as he waited for the auction to begin.
His original skill [Mana Molding] allowed him to create constructs made from pure mana. As he now had more Aura and Spirit to spare he tried to create Aura molding or spirit molding but failed.
Unsure why he cannot recreate the spirit footholds Rhyne\'s devoted used, he started to change ideas instead. If Spirit is basically dead people hanging around couldn\'t they be ordered to do stuff?
It\'s not like they could resist anyone thus Hiro started to combine Spirit to [Mana Molding] he could not have Spirit move objects, but for some reason, Calibers flow and opposed each other like sentience animals.
Hiro had a dagger float in the air with a fixture made of Mana, like how a lamp is mounted on the wall. He then used Spirit to nudge the Mana construct around. To his surprise, he could use Spirit like a hand to direct the construct to his will.
He experimented with this for a few minutes effectively becoming capable of what others would perceive as telekinesis. Its current downside is that it cannot move too far away from Hiro, so it could not create remote weapons just yet. But pulling stuff to him is no problem.
In his pettiness, Hiro covered the collar in a mourning star-like mana construct and threw it at Jack\'s face. Even though the monocled man could not see the mana construct, the sharp spike of the ball made themselves known by piercing his face as it smashed into it.
The damage of such a blow caused Jack\'s jaw to dislocate and for numerous teeth to fall out. As the auctioneer felt the wide gap between him and his assailant he started to beg for forgiveness.
"Prease porgip me, I arm sowi. Daunt kir me prease! Tayke the frodukt. Just spwae me!"
With multiple teeth missing and his jaw hanging on one side, Jack tried his best to plead for mercy as tears, snot, and saliva dripped from the orifices on his head.
Hiro canceled the [Mana molding] on the collar which dropped it on Jack\'s crotch. The remote for the collar then flew into Hiro\'s hand like a young bird reuniting with its mother.
"You did not spare my daughter even if she was in pain. I took 90% of the damage from the shock earlier you bastard. To subject a child to such levels of pain and torture, I now understand how you have a ledger rating of 0%. Suffer the electric shock you so readily dispensed you three-eyed fucker."
At his words, Hiro pressed the same button on the remote Jack did and the auctioneer proceeded to light up like a star.
"AHHHHHHHHHHH!!!"
The man\'s screams echoed in the entire hall, crowds were now forming at the entrances where the San-Baka stood. Each had about fifteen corpses surrounding them. All have either sword holes in the eyes, giant holes in their chest, or their heads separate from their body.
Frightened at the brutality of the three, various people tried to intimidate, coerce or even bribe them to step aside.
"Who do you work for do you know who I am? Let me out this instant!"
"Dunno, don\'t care, stay there or die."
"Young man, my battle harem operates a brothel, I can give you a hundred girls just step aside."
"You could have all the women in the world and I still wouldn\'t move."
"So you want men then? Young boys? Or do Grampas get you off?"
"Look here you fucker, I am straight! Just sit tight till my master finishes what he wants to say."
"How much money is your master paying you? A man of your impeccable ability is wasted with him. Come work for me and I will double it."
"Ho? I get paid by the hour and my rate is ten million Vals."
"Ten million for an hour? Spot screwing with me!"
The weak groups all focused on the doormen who prevented them from leaving. The truly powerful felt the skill that locked the entire hall in place. And weighed their options.
—————
"I\'m amazed someone can seal such a large venue. This chap must be truly powerful."
"My lord, from just his caliber undulations I don\'t think anyone from our side can take him on. We need to run."
—————
"Can you break it love?"
"I am sorry husband, the skill locking us in place seems to be [Cavea No Regeneratio] a rank [A] skill which means cave of rebirth. The only time I saw the skill was from the Immortal Hercules beetles from the Frozen Dew Forest."
"Frozen Dew Forest? Wasn\'t that place being razed by someone they called the Wolfen butcher? Why would that skill suddenly appear here?"
"I am sorry dear, but I don\'t know what to tell you, it is possible to learn monster skills but the risks far outweigh the rewards. But it seems someone succeeded."
—————
"Is he stronger than you?"
"Yes."
"By a little or a lot?"
"You could have a hundred of me and we would all still die."
"Well, shit.."
