Chapter 253 253:Shit..Piercer
Amidst the devastated world, waves of chaos bellowed following the downfall of blood from the sky in the form of rain. Scattered pieces of rotten flesh and corpses lay open in the vast place piling up one after another adorned with flies and ravenous creatures feasting on them.
Amidst all this, a blood-red spear with a bluish blade drenched in blood stood rooted in the place creating a majestic look.
"So, here it is."
A cold voice resonated in the place following which a man with a scarred face and scattered long hair emerged.
The creatures feasting on flesh suddenly hunched back and ran away in fear.
A solitary figure emerged, whose presence commanded an aura of raw power. With an unwavering burning gaze radiating from his golden gaze, he stood tall, radiating a deadly intensity that sent shivers down everyone's spine. Every word uttered carried an undeniable weight, causing even the bravest to involuntarily quiver in their presence.
Walking towards the spear, he slid his fingers along the metallic rod making the spear shiver and then clicked his tongue in displeasure.
"Out of the piles of God-rank shit lying in thier treasure, those fucking Gods send you semi-finished product as humanity'...no, world's hope."
"Hahaha! If this isn't hypocrisy then I don't know what it is."
[You are being rude to Gods and how dare you touch me. I am the Slayer of Evil, the Evil Piercer, only a worthy and deserving one can touch me.]
[You are not worthy]
An old voice emerged from the spear followed by a brief silence.
PFFFTTT!
The scarred man hearing this burst into hysterical laughter.
Controlling his urge to laugh, he spoke mockingly.
"You are right however it is not that I am unworthy rather it's you who is unworthy for me to touch.''
[Yo....]
Before the spear could finish its words, it felt a tremendous palpitating sensation as a hand gripped it like pincers.
The veins over the man's arms bulged outwardly as he pulled the spear with pure raw force.
[How is this possible?]
It screamed in horror witnessing an unbelievable scene like never before.
Even though it was in the rank of Demigod due to being unfinished, however, it was one of five weapons among God's ranks that could be lifted only by those whom it deemed to be worthy.
Even most of the Gods couldn't lift them without their will. This was also the reason it was stuck here. After its previous owner died, the enemies and the ones who killed it were not able to displace it or pull it out.
It was waiting for a suitable being to use it but who knew one day a random guy would pop up and start cursing him while lifting him with pure force?
Glancing, at the spear trembling in his arms, a smirk formed across his lips.
"So, do you think I am worthy now or are you the one who is unworthy?"
[I haven't tested you. Every time someone touches me, I invade his consciousness and judge whether he is worthy but when I tried to do the same with you, it was blocked.]
"Oh, then why don't you try now?"
[Hmmm! Let me see if your words weigh your puny power.]
The spear snorted and inserted its consciousness into the man.
With the permission to sneak in, it dived deep into this guy's soul world but as soon he entered it, a scream of despair emerged.
[What in the name of the seven hells is this?]
The spear's ego was pulled back in fear of getting overwhelmed by such a scene.
As it was about to speak more, a loud crackling sound echoed.
The man raised his chin and saw a huge crack open up in the sky from which many dark figures rushed out numbering in hundreds of thousands.
With wings and sharp claws, it looked like a swarm of locusts as they occupied the whole sky like a dark cloud.
"Here comes the test dummies."
"Perfect fucking timing."
He chucked and took a step forward looking at the spear.
"Ummmm....What is your name?"
He scratched his head trying to remember the name that had been boasted by many.
"Toilet plunger something...No, I got it."
"Shit Piercer, go..."
[Fuck you...It's Evil Piercer for God's sake. How can you say...]
His words were cut off again by an immense killing intent coagulating over the spear.
"Whatever..." The man muttered nonchalantly and stared up.
"You pieces of shit from another world have the test of my Shit Piercer."
With a loud declaration, he whipped his arm sending the spear soaring into the sky like a javelin.
BOOM!
The space trembled and the air before him was punctured leaving a series of sonic explosions, the spear struck the swarm and the energy coagulated over it and burst out like a tsunami engulfing everything around and with a matter of seconds, the entire sky was set ablaze by a ferocious wave of destruction and the world seemed to break.
As the world was enveloped by flames of destruction, the man suddenly turned his head with a blood-curdling.
"Useless piece of shit, stop staring at me and do something meaningful."
....
The scene distorted and everything went back to normal with Frederick's fingertips touching the trembling spear on the ground.
Frederick's legs buckled up and his butt hit the ground with a thud.
"What was that?" Frederick spoke with a pale and horrified expression. His whole body was shaking feeling an invisible scythe of death had been placed on his neck.
"Just the hell did I see."
Frederick wiped his sweat and looking down sighed in relief that his pants were dry. Thankfully he wasn't hydrated otherwise he might have wet his pants for real.
His mental fortitude of two lifetimes seemed to crumble just by that man's gaze.
[I don't know what happened. I don't know if this is real or an illusion but I sensed a random distortion in the world's flow as if this was sent by a future version of me.]
"Do you know who that guy is?"
Seeing the spear-keeping mum, Frederick guessed that either it didn't know or couldn't tell me due to some restriction.
However, he fell into deep contemplation wondering if those last words were for him cause it might be the second time he heard someone calling him useless within this month.
"Arghhhh!'' Frederick held his head in frustration.
"What the hell is going on?! Is this a backlash of my regression?"
.....
Inside Miss Ami's office, Lucas carefully held the box as if he were holding a precious treasure while unaware of Frederick's condition.
If he had seen Frederick's fearful face, he would have made sure to capture it to blackmail him.
Lucas opened a black box and pulled out a sapphire badge that glistened in the light.
"So, we can enter the space using this. Any secret code or password?"
"There is a way. It is like a ritual. The one in the leader position can enter at her own will but since you are borrowing the power. You need to use the secret invocation to enter." Ami voiced out.
"Are you sure this is what I asked for? Why does it sound like some shady cult instead of a club?"
Ami's lips twitched uncontrollably upon hearing this.
"The more layers of mystery act as blockades to stop a random guy from popping there." Ami said and started explaining.
"As per the members, currently there are five. I can't share their identities as Julian had not said anything to tell you about their identity but as a new face, I am sure they might find trouble with you.'
"No need, I will handle them if they annoy me." Lucas said while observing the badge. He knew about the members and their good tendencies.
He is even familiar with the few in them.
'A mole would join the organization in the future but it is not going to happen as I will make charges.'
The organization began with Principal Douglas's backing as the space where all this happens is an artifact gifted to Julian by Douglas but members were selected by Julian whom she met by chance.
The members use aliases instead of their true identities to hide them from getting found out.
Lucas looked back and stared at Ami.
"Miss Ami, are you going to come with me?"
"Yes, I stand behind the leader position along with Herman acting as a protector. Julian had asked me to make sure to protect you in case they trouble you."
Miss Ami then explained a few things. Looking at Lucas' expression, Ami felt that this guy knew everything and might just be pretending.
"Lucas, tell me the truth. You know everything and are just listening to me for formality."
Lucas just smiled instead of answering.
"Haaaa...You surely know a lot. I miss that naive Lucas who looked cute." Ami shook her head putting her hand on her forehead.
"By the way you can join as a random member and pass the proposal so why act as temporary leader?"
"Because it's fun." Lucas answered with a serious expression that made Ami choke.
The change in her student was too fast for her to digest. From a nobody, he had risen to the top gun of the current generation.
Despite this, she felt proud to be a teacher of such a guy. Except for sometimes when she had an urge to slap him, she liked his meticulousness.
"Miss Ami, do I need to inform everyone in advance before I start?"
"Generally meetings take place at scheduled times but we haven't had any meetings in the past three months. However, we can start at any time we want as per your wish but it's better if you send the signal so that they can make some free time to attend." Ami advised.
Lucas nodded and thought about the message.
'It's better I gave them time to adjust their mentality before coming there and inform them about the leader thing. If they find trouble with me, I can just threaten to expose their true identity.'
He channeled his mana into the badge and sent a message.
[Tomorrow 6 PM]
[There is a temporary change in leadership.]
[A temporary leader is gonna take over things to discuss some important things so make sure to appear.]
