YM778.TV Chapter 89: Defeated
Ray, this madman if he was enraged, was much more terrifying than the calm Ray.
At least the calm Ray could be reasoned with, but if Freya died, he would truly go berserk and slaughter her without mercy.
Natalia was aware of this as she aimed for Freya\'s chest, just beside the heart. Despite the countless thoughts racing through her mind, it felt like a mere blink of an eye.
Her blade gleamed in the dim light, aiming precisely for a spot just beside Freya\'s heart.
Everything seemed to be going according to plan.
She could almost taste the freedom, feel the wind against her face as she fled from the scene. But just as the blade was about to pierce Freya, something happened....
A casual, bloody hand, looking like a devil\'s hand, caught the blade almost effortlessly.
"Do you think I will believe your lies?"
Natalia turned her head to look at Ray\'s bloodied face in horror.
Her body trembled as Ray radiated a terrifying killing intent.
Under her horrified gaze, Ray slightly raised his terrifying hand and rapidly enlarged her vision, trailing the black cloak and reaching the hole of the block where her eyes were located, almost clawing them out.
"If something had really happened to Freya, then you wouldn\'t be needing your eyes after that."
Ray broke the sword with one hand while the other hovered dangerously close to her eyes, almost clawing them out.
Natalia felt an intense pain in her eyes as if they were about to pop out at any moment, leaving her terrified and frozen, unable to make a move.
"If I really make a move, he might actually take out my eyes," Natalia thought to herself. "I… I don\'t want to go blind."
Even though she was an S-class Awakener, she was still just an ordinary girl just a few months ago before the apocalypse not to mention when it came to facing death. The thought of going blind completely horrified her.
Without daring to do anything further, she nodded her head with a pitiful expression.
But Ray showed no mercy as he slapped her face without holding back.
The black cloak instantly tore, revealing her cheeks, which had been bruised from the slap with a layer of skin gone. She fell to the ground, almost wailing in pain.
There was no pity in Ray\'s eyes as he grabbed her by the hair and dragged her across the ground, placing her next to Violet.
Considering Violet\'s condition, Natalia\'s situation was much worse. A layer of skin was gone from her cheeks, and her eyes were bloodshot from the tearing pain from her eyes.
Natalia\'s eyes were filled with tears, but she didn\'t dare to cry, afraid of displeasing Ray. The slap had brought her back to reality, highlighting how vulnerable she was.
"Looks like you have become obedient," Ray commented with a cold expression as he approached Elyon and Roger.
Elyon and Roger were already surrounded by the undead and had no way to escape. Seeing Natalia\'s condition, they didn\'t dare to move.
Everyone knew about Ray\'s lustful nature. A little investigation into Ray\'s camp where there were only girls would make it clear that he was indeed a very lustful person.
At least King had his subordinates and the women in prison were all for mere entertainment, but Ray had nothing but women.
Any blind person could tell that he was an absolutely lustful bastard!
Natalia might be spared because she was a woman, but if they tried to escape, they had almost no chance of survival.
Elyon was absolutely certain of this, while Roger remained unconscious and slowly dying.
"Put down your weapon and lie on the ground."
Ray slowly walked up to Elyon, but Elyon didn\'t dare to move; he didn\'t have the guts to do so.
In reality, Elyon was a dangerous person. He could endure everything silently, waiting in the dark like a python, and when you were most vulnerable, he would show his fangs.
Ray rendered Elyon unconscious and instructed his undead dog to carry him. He then healed Roger and placed him on another dog.
As for the other summons, Ray cancelled them out. These summons were draining his already limited mutation energy reserves.
Now, Ray barely had enough to maintain the two dogs and cast a single spell at most, but that didn\'t mean his physical strength was diminished; he could easily destroy a person even in his current state.
Ray\'s combat strength largely came from his raw physical power.
"Are you fine, Freya?" Ray asked, looking at the scratch on her skin with a furrowed brow.
"I am fine," Freya said with a light smile.
"Let\'s return and recuperate for a day before we leave," Ray said lightly to the girls, dragging Violet and Natalia across the ground by their hair.
"Are you sure you will be fine, Ray, in a day?"
Vanessa and Freya asked worriedly at the same time, and the other girls weren\'t far behind, their gazes filled with concern.
"It\'s fine, what are you scared of me for?" Ray looked at Yuna with a smile.
"No," Yuna replied with a flustered look, though her eyes were trying to avoid him, occasionally glancing down.
"Hmm?"
Ray looked down and immediately understood why she was so flustered.
His little brother was standing tall and proud, like a dragon awakening from its slumber, and because of the burned skin, it looked both imposing and terrifying.
"Haha, give me some clothes."
Ray chuckled as they headed back after he wore some clothes.
Greg and his subordinate also returned. He was slightly injured, but there wasn\'t much damage—he had only been dealing with ordinary soldiers, so it wasn\'t a significant problem.
"Boss."
"Not bad," Ray commented lightly while patting his shoulder.
There was a literal mountain of corpses, marking the end of the military. Every soldier was dead—whether due to the general\'s greed or the organisation\'s fault, they were beyond saving and could never come back to life.
This chapter of the military ended here, with Ray and the others returning to the broken and destroyed city to recuperate.
