The Lord Is Too Overbearing

Chapter 214 Killing A Killer Doesn't Change The Number Of Killers

Boom!

"Kuhak! Basil Pacifer, you fiend!" Eugene gritted his teeth, as he stood himself up. He had been thrown away because his Defense Spell had been destroyed by Basil's sword.

With eyes filled with an overwhelming anger and a hint of terror, he looked at Basil while infusing as much Mana as he could to his four Magic Circles. "You will regret ever doing this to me, Basil Pacifer!"

"Why will I?"

"Ku-ku-ku. Look around you!" Eugene swiped the air madly. "Do you think these Monsters can defeat my escort?! Quit dreaming!"

Instead of immediately answering Eugene, Basil chuckled in amusement. "Do you know the reason why there are so many of them?" Eugene wanted to say something, but Basil beat him to it. "Because, there is power in quantity."

"Hah! I, myself, can kill a hundred Monsters in a single attack. Do you really think a couple of thousands of them can win against our Paladins?!"

Basil shrugged lightly. "Who knows?" Infusing Qi into his sword, he sneered at Eugene. "Rather than thinking about how well your fellow Church's dogs will do, how about thinking about yourself."

"Tch. Basil Pacifer, how da—"

Boom!

Eugene's speech was interrupted by a Sword Qi from Basil. Although he managed to block the Sword Qi with his Defense Spell, he was still thrown to the back due to the impact, as he didn't have a proper footing on the ground.

"Gahak! Attacking your opponent without saying a thing—don't you have a pride?!"

"Heh... I learned it from you though. Ironic, don't you think?"

,m "What are you talking about since the very beginning?!" Eugene looked at Basil murderously, as he aimed the Spell he had casted sneakily at Basil. "It's a payback, bastard! [Lightning Spear]!"

Electricity overwhelmed the surrounding air, even the other students that were away from Eugene had the hair on their hand stood up because of it. Three spear like structures from blue electricity materialized in the air, floating right in front of his Magic Circles.

Zap!

The spears traveled through the air just as fast as a lightning that the ground where Basil had supposed to be standing on developed three craters that were filled with electricity in a blink of an eye.

Eugene, of course, wasn't satisfied with what happened. He couldn't see where Basil had actually disappeared to, and he didn't want to get any sneak attack from Basil.

"Where are you, Basil Pacifer?!" Right after Eugene shouted that out loud, his spine chilled. Immediately trusting his instinct, he dodged to the side.

Slash!

Although he managed to dodge Basil's sword, Eugene's eyes still widened in horror as he hastily casted a Motion Spell to distance himself away from Basil, who had suddenly reappeared beside him.

"[Thunderclap]!"

Rumble!

He disappeared from Basil's view, leaving behind a noise that was befitting of a thunder. Basil faintly smirked, and decided to play with Eugene more by casting the same Spell.

"[Thunderclap]!"

Rumble!

The noise that Basil's [Thunderclap] produced was smaller, however the speed at which Basil traveled due to it was more than twice faster than Eugene's version. Therefore, when Basil reappeared right in front of Eugene, said person was extremely baffled.

Uncaring to what kind of face Eugene was showing, Basil fiercely swung his sword at him. Eugene panicked since he realized he wouldn't be able to block the attack, but immediately calmed down when he noticed a Paladin had also sent an attack at Basil.

"Die, you—"

Clank!

Much to Eugene's horror, Basil easily redirected his sword to block the attack that one of the Paladins had sent at him. Luckily because of that, he had the time to distance himself away from Basil.

Basil, who had just blocked the attack of one of the Paladins, gazed at the 3 meters Orc Warrior 30 meters away from him coldly. Said Demon, who he directed his gaze at, tried to defied him at first, but quickly forgot it the moment it saw into his eyes.

Basil's eyes clearly showed that he wasn't amused by what had happened, and said Demon immediately understood what he meant as it immediately riled the other Demons up to distract the Paladins.

Basil turned his gaze away from the Orc Warrior, then swung his sword to block a lightning arrow coming at him from the front. It turns out however, there were still dozens of them coming at him.

[Master of Weapons]!

Basil remained unfazed, as he merely took out his 15 bladed weapons, and controlled it with his Aura Ability. The 15 weapons floated in the air, and Basil sent them toward the incoming lightning arrows.

Zap! Zap! Zap!

Every one of the incoming lightning arrows was redirected to the 15 weapons Basil was controlling, creating a unique static sound in the air. Basil, surely, didn't stay idle while it was happening; he was figuring out Eugene's position.

When he had found where Eugene was, he immediately casted [Thunderclap], and reappeared right in front of Eugene.

As Basil had pretty much announced his arrival the moment he had casted [Thunderclap], Eugene didn't even blink at his reappearance. Eugene had even prepared a Defense Spell to properly block Basil's sword.

"You shouldn't have used—"

"Naive."

Unfortunately, everything was according to Basil's plan.

Eugene's eyes quickly widened in utter shock by the time he saw Basil's sword glowed in dark green light. Judging by the aura alone, he was sure Basil could easily destroy the Defense Spell he had casted upon himself.

Boom!

True to his expectation, his Defense Spell was immediately destroyed upon contact with Basil's sword. He couldn't run—he couldn't anything other than taking the sword with his unprotected body.

He could see it moving slowly toward his body, and he could already imagine his body got split in two the moment it touched his body.

When it was just a few hair away from his body however, he saw the sword twisted, thus allowing the body of the sword to hit him.

Crack!

"Gahak!"

Although Eugene didn't get his body split in two because of Basil's decision to hit him with the blunt side of his sword, he got his ribs completely shattered and thrown away to the back like a bullet. His body only stopped flying once it hit the wall.

Eugene groaned painfully, and tried his best to stand up from the ground. He didn't only have his ribs broken, but also some other bones due to the launch.

"Ugh... My spine..." His back had taken most of the brunt when his body got slammed into the wall, and since he was not a Knight who had a strong body or a Battle Mage that could reinforce themselves, it was enough to break his spine. "I can't move."

"You are sturdier than I expected." Basil was already in front of Eugene by the time Eugene realized it, and he was looking at Eugene with a contemptuous smile.

"You...! What wrong did I do you?!

"Plenty."

"I didn't even touch your woman!"

"No, you didn't." Basil kneeled down in front of Eugene, so he could be on the same eye level as him. "However if I let you roam around the world a little bit more, you will definitely do that when I am not around."

Eugene blinked his eyes in disbelief, before laughing loudly in amusement. "Hahahaha! What kind of a man who can't even believe his partner's loyalty—ludicrous! Let me tell you, Basil. If you are that afraid Iliana will have an affair with—"

"What are you talking about?" Basil quirked his eyebrow as he stared at Eugene weirdly. "I can guarantee Iliana would never sleep with you even if you were the only man in the world. I don't worry about her loyalty, but her well being."

Basil stared at Eugene coldly, and Eugene could only gulp dryly upon receiving his gaze. "Your infatuation on her is nothing more than something that is set by the Church, isn't it? 'Make her yours or kill her,' is the kind of order you received, am I right?"

Eugene's gaze froze as he clutched his fist tightly. The command he had received from his mentor, Head Priest Eban, wasn't actually worded like that, but the content was more or less the same.

"H-How did you know?"

The command he had received should be confidential; no one should know about it other than him and his mentor. In case that someone got to know of it, he, as the person who the mission was assigned to, would be considered as a traitor.

"Who told you that?!"

"You seem more afraid of what the Church would do to you if they found out that you have failed your mission rather than what I am about to do to you."

"No, no. You don't get it... Those people—the higher-ups are like Gods! They can do almost—die, bastard!"

Eugene sent a lightning dagger at Basil in the middle of his speech, and it almost hit Basil square in his chest. Although his attack had failed, Eugene didn't mind about it in the slightest; making a distance from Basil was his purpose, after all.

Basil, who had smoothly dodged Eugene's sneak attack, smirked lightly, then stood up from the ground. Turning his body around, he faced Eugene, who had a manic grin on his face.

"Are you surprised that I can still move, Basil?"

"Not really. I know you are holding a God's Tear Amulet."

"You even know something like that. Truly, who are you?" Eugene frowned heavily, but quickly shook his head in the next moment. "Well, it doesn't matter. You will regret not immediately killing me!"

Extending his hand forward, Eugene materialized his Grimoire once again. Flipping it open, he quickly chose his strongest Spells that he was sure would definitely kill Basil in one go.

"You are not the only person who has grown stronger, I—"

"Too loud."

Eugene once again widened his eyes in bafflement as Basil had just reappeared right in front of him. Everything happened so fast, by the time he realized it, Basil's shining palm was already hitting his chest.

Boom!

Eugene didn't budge even a single step upon being hit by the palm, but he immediately fet an extremely excruciating pain in his chest. In addition to that, he felt his Magic Circles became unstable in each passing second, before three of them eventually crumbled.

"Kuhak!"

Eugene fell on his knees, then threw up a mouthful of blood. He looked up at Basil in horror a few seconds after, and was greeted by Basil's cold smirk.

—He is all yours.

Although he didn't understand what Basil had just said, he was sure Basil was instructing the surrounding Demons to play with him, who were now weakened as he had lost three of his Magic Circles.
