Felix was walking towards to bandits in a sluggish manner while dragging his sword.
"Boss, someone is coming this way."
"Yes boss, I think he a just a little kid."
"Ohh..boss, he is carrying a sword,"
"Must be too heavy for him, that's why he is dragging it, right boss?"
Boss's minions started to relay information about Felix but sword being heavy? I think there is some sort of mistake...
"Yeah yeah...I can also see that. " The boss sighed, "I wanted to avoid killing but these foolish people love their monetary assets more than their life..... Kantos!"
"Yes Boss" A man with 5'4'' height and a lean body came and kneeled in front of the boss.
"Go and try to negotiate with the guardian and if they still resist, give them a quick death," Boss ordered.
"Yes, Boss," Kantos said, as he turned around and ran toward Felix while pulling out his dagger.
'I hope they are sensible...' The Boss sighed again.
======
Currently, a boy in his teen's and an adult man was facing each other,
"Boy, call you Guardian and we can negotiate or else don't mind me if I kill you by mistake." Kantos was first to speak but Felix was standing there opposite to him, motionless, without uttering a single word.
"Boy, can you hear me? Are you having brain lag? Hello?...."
"Hello?"
"Are you deaf?"
Kantos kept asking question after question.
"You done?" Finally, Felix opened his mouth and spoke these two words.
"Eh?" Kantos was confused.
'Done with what?'
"You done with your shit talk?" Felix spoke again but this time, Kantos understood what Felix meant.
"Shit talk?"
"Yeah...I have been waiting for you to attack or public will say I'm bullying and what you are doing is just spewing nonsense. Now come here and attack me." Felix explained
"You toxic brat! I was trying to be nice, and this is what you ask? If not for our kind-hearted Boss, I would have killed everyone!" Kantos was really angry because of Felix's words and behavior.
'This brat can't even lift a sword and think he is opm...kids these days'
Kantos ran up to Felix and attacked him with his Dagger. He was aiming for Felix's neck. Kantos moments were swift and precise, the force behind the attack was enough to cleave off the entire neck from the body.

'A young lad will die again......just because of his arrogance ' The boss sighed again. More than anyone, He knew how much force was behind that attack.
"Die you arrogant brat!" Kantos shouted as he swung his dagger towards Felix's neck.
Swoosh!
But before the lethal blow could land, Felix gracefully dodged it by sidestepping and dagger sliced thin air,
'How? he dodged...' Kantos was perplexed when his attack was easily dodged. 'maybe a lucky dodge...' He tried to reassure himself by assuming delusional possibility.
"You are one lucky boy, aren't you ?" Kantos said while stabilizing himself. He continued, "But my next attack will surely end your life"
Kastos attacked again, but this time, the attack was from a different angle. He was trying to deliver a diagonal slash across Felix's stomach.
Swoosh!
And just like the last time, Felix's dodged Kantos attack by backstepping. The series of attacking and defending continued for a while. When everyone thought this fight will end in a stalemate, Felix's raised his sword and place its blade on Kantos's neck,
"You dead" Felix said as he thrust his sword.
Puchi!
Everything happened so swiftly that no one was able to perceive Felix's movements. Felix withdrew his sword and shook the sword to remove the blood from it.
Sish...Sish...
Fresh hot blood gushed out from the slit and dyed Kanto's body and the road below him in red. Kantos wanted to say something but due to the blood which was overflowing from his mouth, only the gargling sound came out.
After struggling for few seconds, Kantos died. His face was filled with shock and regret.
"Kantos!" When the boss realized about Kantos's death, he was shocked but before he could recover from the previous shock, and more shocking even took place.
The murderer of Kantos started to release pipe like structure which was made up of black plasma. After that, those pipes pierced Kantos body and started to suck his blood and absorb his flesh and within seconds, everything was gone except for Kantos's skeleton.
Everyone including Elder Fang was shocked, this phenomenon was totally new to them.
Silence....pin drop silence.....
After killing Kantos, Felix was now eyeing the remaining bandits. He started to walk towards and he was still dragging the sword,
Chirrrrrrr...rrrrrrrr....rrrrrrr
The noise echoed throughout the forest, creating a scary atmosphere. When the bandits saw Felix, walking towards them, a shiver ran down their spine.
"He is a demon...EVERYONE RUN FOR YOUR LIFE!" The Boss shouted as he ran away from Felix.
But before anyone could run for their life, Felix dashed towards then and killed and devoured them one by one. There was only one person left and he was the Boss himself. He suddenly stopped when Felix was about to attack him. He quickly kneeled and clasped his hand,
"Sir please....don't kill me. My wife and daughter are waiting for me at home. Please, they have no one else other than me. The villager will eat them alive if the discover about my death. Please..please...." The Boss started to cry,
"I don't care about your family.." Felix replied casually.
"Sir Can you fulfill my last wish, only a tiny wish." The boss begged.
"What is it?" Felix asked.
The Boss removed a pouch from his waist belt and said: "Sir, can you give this money to my wife? Her name is Shera. This is all I'm asking for" he requested.
"No," Said Felix as he sliced his head off and kicked his chest to avoid any blood stains but before leaving, he picked up the money pouch, "But thank you for the free money"
'Using your soul strength just after entering the physical realm...shame on you...' Lord Dominik teased.
'I am not planning to waste one whole night on those weaklings and I just used it to enhance my movement speed.....That's no big deal.' Felix Explained.
'You and your excuses.....By the way, how will you explain about you sudden growth in fighting skills? That old goat was observing you from the start.' Lord Dominik asked.
'I'll use the old hag as a reason or killing him is always an option...'
'No killing, at least for not. We have to do everything according to the plan....' Lord Dominik reminded.
'Yeah yeah'
After killing all the bandits, Felix walked back to the carriage and the first thing he heard was a question from Elder Fang and that question was totally different from what Felix expected it to be,
"Brat, are you kay? Did you get hurt? Are you bleeding? "
'I just nuked 6 humans and this is what you ask? this old man is crazy... ' Felix was totally confused. He thought the old man would ask about the fight and things related to it but he was wrong...
"Uncle I'm alright...I'm just tired from the fight and I'm going to sleep on the roof" Felix faked a smile and started to climb the carriage.
'Something is fishy.....'
