Chapter 440 The Killing Manifestation
Today, when the one fist was getting ready to do go and even fight with Aven and Frugal if they had to, something emerged from the water pool. It was none other than Jacob.
Everyone quickly approached him, and Oply, who was Bryan\'s vise, instantly questioned Jacob when she saw Bryan didn\'t appear with Jacob.
"Where is the team leader?"
Aven and Frugal looked at each other with a hint of understanding of the meaning of Bryan not appearing with Jacob.
Jacob looked at Oply and coolly said, "Team leader Bryan is fine. It\'s just that after we discovered the place we were looking for, he tried to open the door, and that door was engraved with mysterious ruins. The moment he touched the door, a portal appeared, and he was sucked within.
"When I tried to go after him, nothing like that happened again, and now that door is sealed, and I was trying to open it, and I need some more time to crack that sealing array. So, I came back to fetch you all so we can quickly go after leader Bryan."
Hearing Jacob\'s story, the One Fist team was bewildered, while the siblings were speechless by Jacob\'s capacity to lie.
"How is that possible!? Just what kind of place you took him? How can we believe you didn\'t kill him and already took the treasure, and now you want to do the same with us?" Oply coldly replied, as she wasn\'t a kid who would believe such an absurd story.
The other members of the team also became alert as they started to reach for their weapons.
Jacob knew it wasn\'t going to be easy, "Look, I know it sounds absurd, but if you don\'t believe, send someone you trust to the bottom of that waterfall, and they will discover the light markers I left outside the tunnel which lead to the runic space. You can then judge for yourself if I\'m telling the trust or not."
Jacob\'s aura suddenly climbed as an insane killing intent shone in his eyes, which made even Aven and Frugal shudder, and Oply took a step back, who was directly facing him.
"Besides, the treasure wasn\'t yours to take in the first place. You are hired to assist us, and your team leader has already overstepped his boundaries when he greedily tried to open the door despite my warning.
"So, if you\'re delusion enough to think that you are on equal terms with me, then how about you guys try to come at me together? But let me warn you about the consequences beforehand: I will never show mercy to anyone who doesn\'t know their place!"
It was everyone\'s first time seeing Jacob act, and just his killing intent was enough to tell them just how much blood was in his hand. They were extremely sensitive to killing intent, and this guy was clearly no pushover.
That icy cold feeling that was stabbing into their hearts and screaming at them to get away from that devil-like person instantly vanished as fast as it appeared.
Everyone\'s faces were filled with cold sweat, but they no longer dared to look down on the person whom they were calling leader for a few days.
\'Just how many people he had killed?\' Aven thought a chill ran down her spine since she was probably the most sensitive towards killing intent because of her race, and her heart went cold, \'I-if he found out I hid a major piece from him, what will he do? Should I contact Dad and reveal my identity…\'
Frugal slightly nudged his sister as she finally snapped out of her racing thought process. His expression behind the mask was ashen as he was also feeling fear. Even though they were both close to the peak of the epic rank, they hadn\'t felt the killing intent that Jacob had just shown them.
"We should contact mother…" Frugal whispered in a tiny voice that only Aven could hear.
"Now, do you want to go with the first option or try the latter?" Jacob\'s impassive voice breaks everyone\'s nightmarish illusion.
"P-Pvill, please go and check according to Leader Viper\'s description." Oply quickly commanded as she now really wanted to avoid fighting with this man.
That killing intent can\'t be an illusion, and not just anyone can have that sort of bloodlust. She now even wondered if that guy was so powerful why they hired them in the first place.
Another elf male in the team sweated when he heard Oply\'s command and nodded stiffly before diving into the pool.
"Good, you made the right choice. Now, if you excuse me, I would like to have a chat with Captain Snow." Jacob stated before, he moved toward Aven without caring about whether they agreed or not.
\'What a tiresome spell, I nearly drained my mana… well, I guess it was worth it since now everyone is afraid of me…\' Jacob thought while silently enduring the urge to sigh in exhaustion.
He just used a basic epic-grade spell called Killing Manifestation. It wasn\'t any element-related spell but, instead, an enhanced type spell that could directly enhance someone\'s killing intent and make it manifest in a 5-meter radius. The stronger one\'s killing intent, the ghastlier this spell effect will be.
The killing intent represents a person\'s bloodlust that was built on the things that were died by that person\'s hand. The stronger people you kill, the stronger your killing intent.
Jacob had killed a ridiculous amount of dark beings when he was upgrading his hex magic core, so his killing intent was also special. It was mostly built on killing the dark beings, and his will to kill anything in his path was even more ridiculous.
Furthermore, Jacob got this spell book from none other than Bryan\'s space ring, and he instantly decided to learn it since enhanced-type spells can be used by all element users.
It took him a day to master it, and when Jacob himself felt his own manifestation, it gave Jacob the idea to use this to intimidate everyone. So, he made a plan, and just before coming out of the water, he had finished 90% of the chatting, and by the time everyone approached, the spell was done.
Jacob just had to hold it as he knew someone would soon give him the chance to use it, and that happened as well.
The moment he stopped suppressing the raging mana, his killing intent surfaced, and what happened afterward was the result he wanted.
Nonetheless, the longer he kept the spell active, the more mana it would drain, and now he was out of water mana. But seeing everyone so submissive, he felt it was worth it.
"You and me, let\'s go." Jacob coldly said to Aven before he led the way without giving her a chance to say anything!
Aven felt something was amiss, and after Jacob\'s little power show, she was extremely agitating as she followed him!
On the other hand, Frugal was also getting impatient as he didn\'t feel in absolute control anymore, so he decided without caring about how Aven would react, and the star watch on his wrist activated without anyone noticing it!
