Silence. After hearing the phrase from Shu Himo, no one dared to utter a single word.
The Remir Kingdom shall not exist? Who was he to be able to utter such words in the entrance of the Capital?
While he was at Dantian Core Formation of the 5th string, such strength doesn't equivale to much in the Kingdom, so what made him be this confident to proclaim the end of it?
Even if all of them had such thoughts, their instincts only said to run. To run farther possible and leave behind anything else.
Drove by such instincts, the guards took various steps back, clearly alerted.
Seeing them reacting like that, Shu Himo chuckled, "Let me pass and I will not kill you… I'm only going for the royal family and the nobles."
Shu Himo did not want to kill the weak guards ... those who grew his rage were just the ruling class, so unless they try to stop him, he decided to let them off… after all, from tomorrow they would become part of his people.
Knowing that they would not be able to fight him, the guards let him through, but they secretly sent a couple people to inform their superiors. Shu Himo noticed them, yet he didn't care at all so he just let them go.
Shu Himo, Aura Azusa and Phylia, successfully passed through the entrance to the Capital, and in their sight finally appeared the second wall; it seems like even in this Kingdom the nobles were separated from the commoners.
The three then advanced, uncaring of the scared looks from the guards.
-----
After minutes of walking, the three almost reached the entrance toward the area of the nobles.
Behind them, over three thousand commoners were quietly following behind, wanting to know what will happen.
Meanwhile, over two hundred Dantian Core Formation were looking at the three, wondering if they should attack them: the only reason they did not attack them yet was because Aura Azusa as a Nascent Soul expert produced a pressure strong enough to make them believe they would immediately be exterminated.
Seeing this crowd, the guards at the internal gate were dumbfounded, what was happening?
Staring at the three, they coldly said, "Halt, who are you three?"
Being guards of the gate for years they have known most of the nobles, yet they have never seen those three ... coupled with the crowd behind their alertness raised, and all prepared themselves in case of a sudden attack.
Contrary to their expectations, Shu Himo simply said, "I will give you three seconds, scram or die." He then raised a single finger, "One."
The guards were dumbfounded, what does he want to do? Quickly taking their weapons, from swords to spears they aimed them toward Shu Himo, while they weren't Nascent Soul experts, they were Dantian Core Formation of the 7th string and higher! They would not escape from someone in the 5th string!
However, Shu Himo noticing their attitude frowned, and coldly looked at the guards while saying, "Two."
In front of those cold eyes, the guards abruptly found themselves stared by a tremendous monster, looking at them as if they were mere preys waiting to be slaughtered.
Having this sudden feeling they all panicked and backed off in fright, their willpower was broken by a mere gaze from Shu Himo.
All of a sudden, the guards felt a hand touching their shoulder, revealing three men staring deeply at Shu Himo, "Back off, he is not someone you can handle."
The three then walked in front of the guards, and coldly looked at Shu Himo, "We just got a report from some guards, how interesting… you are Shu Himo, right? You do know that there is an enormous army going to destroy your Kingdom, while you are killing yourself by coming here?" The man then laughed, he never thought that the army could be defeated.
The three men were all at the Nascent Soul realm in the 3q-Calling Soul. Revealing their cultivation realm, they generated pressure on top of Shu Himo, and looked attentively at him, expecting to see a frightened expression.
At that moment, the expression of Shu Himo quickly changed in shock, he clearly could not believe what he was seeing.
[The use of Intimidation caused one of the guards to urinate his underpants in fright. Intimidation leveled up: Intimidation lv_2]
[Intimidation lv_2]
[Make the target feel to be stared by a dreadful fiend giving the feeling of certain death. The chance of working change based on the current state of mind of the enemy compared to the User. If the difference in realms is too high the skill will not work.]
Seeing Shu Himo's expression the three grinned, believing to have scared him. However, what they witnessed next almost made them spurt blood.
Shu Himo, abruptly turned toward a specific guard and said in shock, "Did you seriously urine on yourself just for that?"
Hearing him, the guard was dumbfounded, how did he notice? Looking around himself, he saw the weird looks from the others, and his face quickly reddened in shame, believing that if there was a hole... he would gladly dive in it.
Not paying attention to the reaction of the guard, Shu Himo felt exasperated, 'System, just what is wrong with you? Earlier I scared a whole army, yet Intimidation did not level up, however now just by making a guard do… that... it suddenly leveled up? You truly are The Bullsh*t System...'
As shocked as he was, he noticed that the system was in silence, as if it didn't want to answer that question.
