37 A New World. (1/2)

”Deal.”

With a resolute gaze, Su Min clenched his fists as he stared right at the blurred black figure. The figure in turn, with a smile, leaned right into his face and whispered.

”Hehe. You won't regret it. Not that you'd be able to feel regret anyway, pfft!”

”You, as the Martial holder, will be driven by power, and only power! Ruthless, uncaring, deathly still, no sexual drive, the lot! You'll be a doll, a doll of death! Enjoy it, as with your anger filled heart, the world will reek!

HAHAHAHAH!”

The figure, with a snarly voice, roared at Su Min as the world shook with a terrifying ripple. A chasm, seemingly originating from the abyss of time, sprawled in the air as an echoing thunder ruptured the sky.

”HAHAHAHA! You, you will know, know the pain of loss! See, as you have decided to fuck your beliefs, let us see you fuck the world!”

Widening his gaze, the figure stood up and patted his skinny legs with a teacup in his hand. The sky swirled into a vortex of blackness that would make anyone shudder with terror, yet Su Min's eyes glazed over at that very moment.

He felt his soul lose something, something precious.

”Huh?”

*BANG* *DIIIIIING*

The chasm, resembling a beasts growl, scowled as everything became such a chasm. Su Min, finding himself weightless, got engulfed into the blitzing blaze, where the only thing that echoed in his ears was the last sentence the figure cried...

”Hahaha! Fuck the heavens!!”

*SSSSS*

His mind, with a spasm, switched off as a strange feeling erupted in him. It was a feeling of life.

*BANG*

”?”

Maybe a year had passed, maybe a second, but in this split second for Su Min, he felt a rough ground barrage into reality. A light, piercing with wavy streaks that flapped under the numerous leaves, shrouded over him.

”Hm?”

Su Min, blinking, looked around and frowned. He didn't recognise this place.

*Wooosh*

A wind, calm yet chilling, blew across him. Yet, this simple wind made Su Min's mind scamper and revel in danger!

”?!”

Su Min, in instinct, leapt off the floor as a sudden piercing blade shot at him. It was silent, and its speed made Su Min's already fatigued mind dizzy...

*GRAB*

However, by some strange occurrence, his body moved by itself as Su Min grabbed the blade with his bare hands.

*SHATTER*

Gripping, the shining blade shattered!

”My body...”

Su Min felt the world around him seem strange, his body, his eyes, everything was different...

*SCAMPER*

Twitching, Su Min felt a faint flutter of leaves scamper away from him in a bush near him. Not thinking, not even changing expression, Su Min leapt forward and with a blur that was instantaneous, he appeared right at the bush.

”W-what?!”

A view entered his eyes as a half-naked man, running, looked back at him with an incredulous expression. His body was covered in strange tattoos, tattoos that seemed alive. Not only this but on his forehead shone with a simple symbol of a circle.

”Die.”

Su Min, feeling nothing but anger, uttered one word as his body grasped the air with his hand, doing it without his command. A strange phenomenon happened, where the man with widened eyes, choked under an invisible force. His body lifted in the air as he kicked the ground, yet it did nothing.

”GUHUH!”

*CRACK*

Not even taking a second, the man's neck ruptured as his eyes shone with unwillingness and disbelief. Su Min, though, was focusing on his hand.

”W-what was that...?”

Su Min eyes glistened as a world he'd never think he would see erupted out of him. Like his senses had returned, a realm full of gold shuddered around him. The gold was clear, concise, and beautiful.

”...Law?”

Su Min felt his mind get bombarded with information as a stream of talent techniques sundered with an invisible wave from his newfound bloodline.

”Ancient Law?”

Su Min rubbed his eyes as the strange information muddled his thoughts, though, without him even thinking, that simple movement of his hand roused every golden strand surrounding him for metres. It was like a resonance, resonating with his palm.

Shaking, Su Min performed the same grabbing movement he did before.

*BANG*
